<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Alas, Hindus keep on trying to confirm all the negative stereotypes
about themselves, i.c. their lack of historical sense. Here, it is
pretended that since eternity, Sanskrit has had a word Yavana meaning
foreigner. No, first it had no such word. then it heard of Greek
Ionians, or Yona in Prakrit, then sanskritizing this to Yavana. then
when proper Greeks disappeared from the horizon, it came to mean any
foreigner coming from the West. Moreover, this unhistorical
misunderstanding is then proposed as a *correction* to the proper
explanation with historical depth.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Yavana = Bacterian (germ) ~ erstwhile Helino-Roman-Persian- Turkmenistan-regions (period based shifting Geog).
A Bacteria survives by invading and killing the native population of cells. It refuses to do any signal transduction with the native cells, which alike many a severe disease causing parasites do not. Towards the Mediterranean.
The Brahmana (it appears) had grown very suspicious of or frigid about the Greek scholars who for them seemed to take away only and give back nothing ~ just like a Bacteria ! Hence = YAVANA.Â
From the Indian point of view all this primarily strated with the Greek scholars comming into india. Technically, an inter-scholar or inter-school accusation.Â
We may need to know if the Greeks had any such counter adage for the Indians ?Â
The Indian schools it seems had no such adage for the Sino-Nipponese visitors.
Kusana = Grasslander ~ Tajikistan, Don-Danube valley, Caspian sea regions north by north east of Afghanistan and NW of Gobi desert (period based shifting Geog).....Chengis Khan was a Kusana ? The Kusana art is very smooth and rolling type - a reflection of their rolling grassland countryside....Cossacks in particular ~excellent horse men.
Note = These were not the decendants of the star gazers of the Rik period. Kusanas and Yavanas were not Brahmanas (scholars). The averment "Yavana generally means Foreigners and not necessarily Greeks" = is right so long the Kusana and Chins (mongoloids) are excluded.
