Mike Maloney,
You are right about Sanskrit and Russian. During the 1800s, Sanskrit was
considered the mother of all languages. ( Somebody tell Sadam ) Of course,
that just wouldn't do for the Western establishments, especially the one
subjugating India at the time ( the British crown ), so Sanskrit got knocked
off its pedestal and a lost language which was supposedly the origin of all
was invented. One thing is for sure, though, any vocabulary, any verb
conjugation, any declension, any structure which can be found piecemeal in
one language can be found in full form in Sanskrit.
I've included some comments from the chapter of P.N. Oaks book Our World
Vedic heritage on connections between Russia and Vedic culture, including
etymological connections. Actually, nobody doubts these things. That is why
they have the term " Indo European." Sure there is a connection- there are
not only etymological connections, but the same race stretches from Bengal
( Yes, Bengalis are Caucasian ) all the way to Norway and the Russian coasts
of the Arctic. The issue is, how do you interpret them?
The Hindus feel that they are the origin of the whole ballgame because their
language is obviously the glue, the common thread, and because their basic
civilization has remained intact going way back, even before the Greeks- the
same literature is still there in the same script.
But we can feel differently, at least a little. I think that the Sanskrit
and racial origins of the Arctic Russians and Europeans ( such as the Swedes
and Finns- I can't remember who else ) are more immediate. Their origin in
within the hollow portion, on the other side of the opening. The Caucasians
down in India could have been from a long, long time ago- maybe from the
times of the Ramchandra incarnation- especially as they have different
characteristics- at least we can say that they have different pigmentation,
eye color and Y chromosomes. But I do feel that the view we have of Vedic
culture is a fairly well preserved specimen of that original Earth culture,
which I believe still exists, with continuity, in the hollow portion.
The Puranas of India still mention, in the ancient Sanskrit script, the
hollow protion. By that I mean that several comments are made in the course
of narrating some event. For example, after Shree Parasurama met and battled
21 different warrior communities, the Bhagavat Purana tells that the
cardinal directions of the " prithivim ", the surface, was distributed to
eight different rishis and that the " madhyatah ", the middle portion, was
distributed to the sage Kashyapa. I mention the other Puranic narrations in
my article Hollow Earth in the Puranas:

I've run this by a couple of indology-type lists and I've run this all by
about 20 or 30 indological scholars- so far, they just don't know what to
say. To confront somebody like that and associate HE implications and
interpretations to their culture is just mind-numbing for them, I guess.
