<!--QuoteBegin-Bodhi+Feb 19 2009, 04:07 PM-->QUOTE(Bodhi @ Feb 19 2009, 04:07 PM)<!--QuoteEBegin-->One should understand that there is this time factor that changes all human things including the practices in religious realm.
[right][snapback]94731[/snapback][/right]<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->You are broaching an entirely different topic. (Actually, bringing in Vishnu's avataras earlier was also unanticipated.)
The topic I was led to was western scholarship on dating Hindu lit and consequently ordering Hindu history, and how it is used to silence Hindus. <- Using no more than "probablys" and "perhapses", what's more.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->- <b>For the orthodox/religious student, the historicity of any thing does not matter.</b> itihAsa-purANa is a source of religious inspiration and practice for him.
- For the historical/archaeological student, the religiousity matters little and the text is a source of understanding of old times.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->That part of your statement is not universal. I know (knew) Gurukula students. I also know traditional people who regularly perform Vedic rites. They are all very much convinced of the Itihasas being history and even most of the Puranas. The view that "the historicity of any thing does not matter" does not represent them.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Since I do not want you to get angry at me,<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->?
Contrary to what you may think, I'm not 5 anymore Bodhi.
I have one word for you: <i>Crayons.</i>
