Who are the Aryans?

Question

If you say some nazi related stuff you are way off the mark.

Answer 1

In Sanskrit, the term Aryan means "noble" as it applied within the context of Hinduism. The word Aryan is derived from arya, which meant "exalted" or "noble one" in the Indian and Persian languages. Arya appears in the ancient texts of Hinduism and Zoroastrianism, known as the Rigveda and Gathas, respectively. The term is also found in Old Persian inscriptions and other Persian sources from approximately 500 BCE onwards. The word Iran, literally "Land of the Aryans", is derived from Aryanam as well (see also: Airyanem Vaejah). Seventy percent of those living in modern Iran are native speakers of Iranian/Aryan dialects. India is also referred to as Aryavarta, which means "Abode of the Aryans". Indo-Aryan speaking people form majority of the population of northern India.

Answer 2

There was no race named Aryans. It is a figment of Imagination of British Historians who refused to acknowledge that India was culturally far advanced several millenniums earlier and vedic culture had spread all over the earth. So they created a myth called Aryans and named them as nomadic race of central Asia who came to Indus valley and settled there.(there is no proof of this but there is enough proof of spread of vedic culture over the earth)
Actually "Arya" is a very respectful address as sir are your highness etc.used in vedic times. Sita refers to Rama as Arya.
Even today In orissa they say 'Arya" when addressing elders (it has got mutated in course of time).

Answer 3

Arya Samaj
The Arya Samaj is a "back to the Vedas" movement which developed in Hinduism due to the efforts of Dyananda Sarasvati in 1875. Although it owes its existence to Christian missionary activity, it is expressly hostile to Christianity and one of its goals is to re-convert Indians away from Christianity and back to Hinduism.

Arya Samaj retains traditional Hindu beliefs in reincarnation and karma, but it rejection worship of idols and argues that Hinduism is, in essence, monotheistic. This is based upon the idea that the various ancient Hindu gods are really just manifestations of the One God, Brahman.

Dyananda was very nationalistic in his outlook, with his movement being partially a reaction to the rise of nationalism in India and partially a cause of it.
