The 6th of April marks the Anniversary of Arya Akasha - both of the Research Institute's founding proper, in 2016, as well as our successfully taking things 'public' upon this date some two years later. Now, when we have observed this occasion in the past, it has been an incandescent illustration of Agni with which … Continue reading The Anniversary Of Arya Akasha – And Our Purpose

Arya Akasha on the Kumbh Mela in Indian Print Media
This was pretty cool. I'd received invitation to write something upon the present Kumbh Mela observance for a print-media publication in India.I received back the print-preview on Sunday, and it was quite an honour to see names you may have heard of such as Yogi Adityanath, and representatives of organizations like the BJP and RSS, … Continue reading Arya Akasha on the Kumbh Mela in Indian Print Media
ভগবান ইউল (Yule), ভগবান জোল (Jól) এবং জোলের (Jöl) দেবতা
ভগবান জোল। …এবং ভগবান -জোলনির / জোলফদর এখন, এটি কিছুটা অর্থহীন পূরনাবৃত্তি ,কারণ আমরা দেখতে পাই যে জোলন (Jóln) শব্দটি নিজেই দেবতাদের অর্থে ব্যবহৃত হয়েছে। যদি অনুমান করা হয় যে জোলন বা জোল শব্দের জন্য একটি অনুমানভিত্তিক প্রোটো-ইন্দো-ইউরোপীয় বুৎপত্তি (PIE:*Yek)) সঠিক - যার অর্থ উচ্চারণ করা, বা একটি প্রদর্শনী প্রদর্শন করা… তাহলে এটি দেবতা শব্দের … Continue reading ভগবান ইউল (Yule), ভগবান জোল (Jól) এবং জোলের (Jöl) দেবতা
On The Symbolism Of The Gigantes & Gigantomachy [Part One: He Shall Tread]
We had earlier received a question as to the iconography of the Gigantes of Classical myth - more specifically, what was up with the Serpents they so prominently feature instead of legs in an array of renderings. And, because it's a very, very cool illustration for the concept - here's a beautiful 2nd-3rd Century (BC) … Continue reading On The Symbolism Of The Gigantes & Gigantomachy [Part One: He Shall Tread]
A Brief (Further) Shiva – Odin Synopsis
It's been awhile since I attempted to do a … relatively succinct 'synopsis' run-through of Shiva, Odin comparanda (viz. the Indo-European Sky Father deific complex); and so, most of my reply to this gentleman's good-natured inquiry upon the subject. I really should actually sit down and i) more actively integrate the Zeus / Jupiter elements … Continue reading A Brief (Further) Shiva – Odin Synopsis
Grim Waters, Vedic & Eddic – The Death-Visaged Wife Of The Sky Father In Nordic Expression I [The Indo-European Propitiation Of Persephone-Kali – Part Five]
Yet what of Persephone 'midst the North? Where might *She* be found? And, for that matter - with the Rivers (of the Underworld), the Water(s) as Pathways toward the Goddess and Cosmic Order within the context as to those Indo-European cultures in or about the Mediterranean ... where might the portals of liminal immersion lead … Continue reading Grim Waters, Vedic & Eddic – The Death-Visaged Wife Of The Sky Father In Nordic Expression I [The Indo-European Propitiation Of Persephone-Kali – Part Five]
Of Mantras And (Weaponized) Metallurgy – An Excerpt
Brief excerpt from our recent megalithic piece … "Instead, the best explanation for various of these is that when we are dealing with metaphysically potent liturgies … they are metaphysically potent liturgies. And they are quite deliberately constructed in such a way as to maximize their power. Which can involve ‘weaving together’ mutually reinforcing and … Continue reading Of Mantras And (Weaponized) Metallurgy – An Excerpt
On The Sky Father As Dragon Destroyer
Something we have often had cause to make reference to is the fact that this most prominent of Indo-European mythemes, the Smiting of the Demon-Dragon, is NOT exclusive in commissioning to the Striker/Thunderer deific. But is, rather, a case of 'Like Father - Like Son'. As with, perhaps uncoincidentally, the wielding of Thunder in various … Continue reading On The Sky Father As Dragon Destroyer
On Several Roudran Theonymics
Right so I got bored being unproductive. So here's an excerpt that I excised out of a work I'm currently producing, because it was too much of a digression. Main area of interest for most will be the progression of theonymics from a sector of the Sri Rudram. Jai Sri Rudra "Indeed, whilst not a … Continue reading On Several Roudran Theonymics
