Bharat Before History Began – Discoveries Through My 35-Year Journey
For over three decades, I have traveled across 60 countries, studying civilizations—from the pyramids of Egypt to Mesopotamian ruins. Yet, every step of this global journey only strengthened my belief: Bharat is the oldest continuous civilization in the world.
My visits to archaeological sites like Bhirrana, Rakhigarhi, Kalibangan, Mehrgarh, and Dholavira confirmed what textbooks ignored. These sites push Indian history back to 7500–8000 BCE, long before Mesopotamia and Egypt.
Personal On-Ground Experience
Standing at Bhirrana, Haryana, I witnessed pottery shards dating back 8000 years. In Kalibangan, I walked across the world’s first ploughed fields. At Mehrgarh, I saw evidence of the world’s earliest dentistry, with drilled molars over 9000 years old.
In Dholavira, I marveled at the advanced rainwater harvesting system—a technology modern cities still struggle to replicate. At Rakhigarhi, ongoing DNA studies confirmed what I always felt on my travels: the Harappans are our direct ancestors.
Beyond Books, Into Truth
After visiting Egypt, Greece, and Mesopotamia, I compared their ruins with India’s sites. The difference is clear—India’s continuity is unbroken. Our rituals, spiritual practices, and daily life carry the same thread from Harappa to today.
Global Trade I Witnessed in Records
At Lothal, standing at the ancient dockyard, I could visualize ships leaving for Mesopotamia. Having seen Mesopotamian museums myself, I found Indian beads, seals, and cotton textiles displayed there. That was a deeply personal validation of Bharat’s global trade dominance.
The Truth We Must Embrace
History was distorted under colonial rule. But after 35 years of research and ground verification, I can confidently say: Civilization did not begin in Mesopotamia—it began in Bharat.
The soil of India, its rivers, and its timeless cities are living proof of a civilization 10,000 years old and still alive today.
