Home Articles Tiwanaku And The Sanskrit Language

The ancients of South America worshipped the 'Sun' and for the Incas, Mayans and Aztecs, their very land was a monument to the Sun and one such example is 'Tiwanaku' one of the largest archeological sites of South America and said by some to be at least 12,000 years old.

 

The ancient city of Tiwanaku is pretty much an observatory to the stars and within the walls of Tiwanaku we find many structures reflecting this and many of these structures have names whose astronomical purposes can be explained by way of the ancient Sanskrit language.

 

The centrepiece of Tiwanaku was the 'Akapana Pyramid' and this was surrounded by cities, temples and the amazing irrigation channels which used an ingenious system which enabled it to feed the citizens of this once great ancient city.

At fourteen thousand feet above sea level any crops which are grown would succumb to the freezing effects of the frost. The citizens built up narrow banks of soil through which flowed the irrigation channels, which not only fed the crops but due to the effects of the Sun, fed them warm water enabling them to survive the freezing nights.

 

The Akapana Pyramid which is the centrepiece of Tiwanaku has upon its summit a huge water tank whose waters were warmed by the Sun and these waters slowly seeped into the complex system of irrigation channels which once again provided warm water for the crops.

 

The name 'Akapana' can be very much translated through the ancient Sanskrit language as the water ( pani ) of the Sun ( arka ) or as drinking ( pana ) from the Sun ( arka ) or even as the canal ( pana ) of the Sun ( arka ) all of which are appropriate names.

To the north of the Akapana Pyramid we find the courtyard of 'Kalasasaya' which is described as a sacred space used for public and religious ceremonies. The most obvious part of its name is 'kala' which the academics translate as 'stone' and which in Sanskrit means 'time'.

 

Tiwanaku was seen as the centre of the universe and the complex was structured around astrological concepts hence 'time' seems appropriate. The second part 'sasaya' is also Sanskrit meaning 'ever flowing' 'abundant' 'unfailing' as in ever flowing ( sasaya ) time ( kala ) or abundant ( sasaya ) time ( kala ).

 

An advanced civilisation transports stones weighing hundreds of tons some 50 miles away to construct astrological monuments and observatories and also grow crops where normally you could not grow crops, and when these great feats have been accomplished these same ingenious people are incapable of a more imaginative or inspiring name than 'standing stones'.

Next to the courtyard of Kalasasaya we find another courtyard known as 'Kerikala' and once again this 'kala' meaning "time". Academics who are allergic to anything of a metaphysical or even romantic view of history quickly transforms the divine into nothing but 'stones'.

 

Next to the Akapana Pyramid we have the temple of 'Kantatallita' which is said to mean 'the light of the dawn'. One of the Sanskrit words for the Moon is 'kanta' and the word 'talita' is Sanskrit for 'fixed' and "placed" hence Kantatalita would be Sanskrit for 'fixed ( talita ) moon ( kanta )' which seems appropriate for a temple where people worshipped the Moon.

 

Tiwanaku was originally known as 'Taypikala' and once again we see what seems to be the Sanskrit 'kala' meaning 'time'. Academics unanimously agree on 'stones' and to accompany the highly imaginative 'standing stones' we now have 'stones in the centre' while in Sanskrit 'tapa" and 'tapi" are related to 'heat' and the 'Sun' hence the time ( kala ) of the Sun ( tapa ) a speculation which could be considered in light of other evidence.

"Those who believe the ancient peoples of Asia were incapable of crossing the ocean have completely lost sight of what the literary sources tell us concerning their ships and their navigation. Many of the peoples of Southeastern Asia had adopted Indian Hindu-Buddhist civilizations. The influences of the Hindu-Buddhist culture of southeast Asia in Mexico and particularly, among the Maya, are incredibly strong, and they have already disturbed some Americanists who don't like to see them but cannot deny them." Dr. Robert Heine Geldern anthropologist.

 

“That primitive Aryan words and people came to America especially from Indo - Arya by the island chains of Polynesia. The very name of the boat in Mexico is “catamaran” a South Indian ( Tamil ) word. After 30 years of research i can now claim to have proved my theory of Hindu colonisation of America. The stones in every corner of America speak of Hindu influences“. Miles Poindexter - United States Ambassador.

 

"Ships that could cross the Indian Ocean were able to cross the Pacific too. Moreover, these ships were really larger and probably more sea-worthy than those of Columbus and Magellan." "Ships of size that carried Fahien from India to China (through stormy China water) were certainly capable of proceeding all the way to Mexico and Peru by crossing the Pacific. One thousand years before the birth of Columbus Indian ships were far superior to any made in Europe up to the 18th century." Dr. Robert Heine Geldern anthropologist.

The material body is perishable by nature. It may perish immediately, or it may do so after a hundred years. It is a question of time only. There is no chance of maintaining it indefinitely. But the spirit soul is so minute that it cannot even be seen by an enemy, to say nothing of being killed. (Bhagavad-gita 2.18)
