Let's decipher the Indus Valley script

[Uma]

I just got a book about palmistry symbols and they remind me of the Indus Valley script (also Nazca Lines and other things, like things children naturally draw when they're really young). These are so ancient and universal and obviously associate with subtle energies radiating from our chakras and nadis and the universe. I was thinking they must have been the first inspiration for the creation of writing systems around the world. Some forms just seem to appear everywhere and anywhere.

Opinions? Feel free to share.

Namaste, Uma.

I have been trying to decipher the Indus Valley Script for quite a while now.

For something very interesting, please compare the Indus Valley Script with the Rongo Rongo script from Easter Island and they are almost identical!

If I wasn't on my mobile phone, I could provide certain images for you, but I cannot get around Pinterest's digital encryption codes and my mobile phone always defaults to Pinterest for ALL images now and I don't know why... it's annoying.

Anyway, besides the Rongo Rongo Script, check out the ancient Asian Brahmi Script:

...and the evolution of the Tamil Script:

I have deciphered a few of the characters of the Indus Script, but it didn't make any sense, so I put it in the "too hard basket" about 2 years ago...but the "Rosetta Stone" will be found in Rongo Rongo and in the ancient Polynesian languages and the Pallava Script connection.

Omniglot is an amazing resource for ancient languages...It will just take time to find similarities and compare characters of all world languages in the timeframe of 1000 - 3000 BCE. This is a HUGE undertaking.

Aum Namah Shivaya.

I have just found something very interesting.

I was just playing a hunch and decided to forget about Easter Island and concentrate on Nan Madol in Micronesia. I wondered what the ancient text would look like from the abandoned ruins of this very old coral city.

I came across what is called the "Pohnpei Script" or the "Caroline Island Script" and surprisingly, Pinterest would let me share the link:

This clearly shows that in the first millennium BCE, there was a universal language with similar characters.

Also, check out the paleolithic Mycenaean Greek language...It is also very similar...I just found this amazing thing on YouTube:

Suffice to say, this has been a hobby of mine for quite some time now.

I am armed with a few more pieces of the puzzle today and thanks for renewing my interest in this script (and other prehistoric antediluvian languages which have a common source).

Aum Namah Shivaya

Wow. I never knew Mycenaean Greek sounded like that and had a writing system like that... it reminds me of Japanese!

One of the symbols is very similar to the Egyptian ankh, symbol of life.
What meaning did it have to the Indians? One interpretation: https://sanatanadhamma.wordpress.com...-and-pavitram/

Greetings.

As with many proto Indo-European languages like the Indus Valley Script, Linear A (Minoan) and Linear B (Mycenaean) was carried along the trading routes into Asia and also South East Asian countries.

There is no historical evidence for this, but the Japanese that is spoken on the island of Okinawa is totally different to the rest of Japan and closely resembles Linear A and other Altaic languages... this has been largely discredited though, but one cannot help but wonder..
https://linearbknossosmycenae.com/tag/proto-japanese/

There are similarities all over the world...The Buddhists bought the Pali and Kawi script from Tibet to Thailand and down into Cambodia, while Tamil traders brought the Dravidian scripts across to Indonesia..

There is some academic debate that the Indus Valley Script is actually a Dravidian Script and not an Aryan one...and I can see the similarities with very early versions of the Tamil script, but I am still guessing that it is some kind of ancient Persian or Armenian language that for some unknown reason, can be found in the middle of the Pacific ocean and also some places in Brazil.

I actually have just found a beautiful article which highlights and explains all I have been talking about and I am totally over the moon.

Great article

Many of these common signs occur as wrinkles in our palms - very universal.
see for example
Palmistry is part of Nimitta, one of the six organs (angas) of Jyotish

Thank you very much, Uma.

That was also a very great website about Indian palmistry that I will definately look into later.

Another aspect of Jyotish is astrology...

That Indus Valley Script symbol for the fish with a little roof on top is called "meen" and "meen" = Star.

When the fish symbol with the roof on top is next to seven straight lines, it represents the Big Dipper constellation.

When it is next to six straight lines, it represents the Plaides constellation.

They also say that the Indus Valley Script is read from right to left and that words usually end with that jug-shaped symbol.

I watched a nice Ted talk about the script last night..
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kwYxHPXIaao

There are also a few videos on YouTube about how to decipher the Script...I watched one about a man comparing Dravidian languages to African languages, but I couldn't see any evidence to say that the language came from Africa.

Aum Namah Shivaya

Thanks Shivani Devi - I remember watching this Ted Talk - twice!

Jyotish is a passion of mine - and I'm working on reverse engineering it - so what you said about Meena makes so much sense. Meena is also the Sanskrit name for the sign of Pisces, and Big Dipper (in Taoism especially) has to do with the crown chakra. There is a lot to all of this.

Fascinating!

Yes, it is indeed fascinating.

I never really got into Jyotisha much (just superficially) and didn't even make the connection between Meena Rakshi and the IVS fish symbol until you mentioned it, when it was pretty obvious.

My passion, as you can see, is proto linguistics but also astronomy, sacred geometry and ancient architecture.

When we discuss the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper constellations, between those two constellations is where the tail of Draco or the Dragon/Serpent resides:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.spa...tellation.html

Now, when we look at the arrangement of the temple structures of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom in Cambodia, we can see that the exact layout follows the pattern of Draco Constellation..As it was in 10,500 BCE:
https://www.mysterypile.com/angkor-wat.php

If we look at the Pyramids and the shaft in the Queen's Chamber, we can see that the Pyramids themselves and the shaft align with Orion and Sirius B respectively at the time of 10,500 BCE...The Dogon tribes of Africa confirm it.

If we look at the Sphinx, the personification of the constellation of Leo, we can see that the last time it actually faced Leo, was...you guessed it, 10,500 BCE.

Something really spectacular happened at that time...also leading to the fact that these civilizations are much older than modern historians give them credit for.

I believe that the Indus Valley Civilisation is at least 12,000 years old, due to the fact that the Civilization existed in the fertile plain of the river Saraswati, which totally dried up around the same time... this is particularly mentioned in the Rig Veda.

There are also magnetic "Ley Lines" around the Earth that link all of these sacred sites together with the distances between them all being very precise and mathematical:
https://grahamhancock.com/geographic...ships-alisonj/

Mojendro Daro is at the exact polar Antipodes to Easter Island along this line of latitude and their scripts are almost identical.

Similar comparisons can also be made between Egyptian hieroglyphics and Machu Picchu.

Halfway between Angkor Wat and the Great Pyramid is the Indus Valley, the city of Mohenjo Daro, and the unexcavated city of
Ganweriwala, which is East of Mohenjo Daro, and thought to be just as large. Both of these sites are on the line between Angkor and the Great Pyramid. The Indus Valley is also antipodal to Easter Island. It is an interesting coincidence concerning these two sites, opposite each other on Earth, that of the few ancient written languages of the world that remain undeciphered, two are Indus Valley Script and Rongorongo, the written language of ancient Easter Island. The world’s first known written languages, Egyptian Hieroglyphics and Sumerian Cuneiform, were also developed along this line of ancient sites. The Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Brahman and Buddhist religions, as well as ancient Egyptian and Peruvian religions, were also developed along this line.

The whole globe was turned into a map of the heavens circa 10,500 BCE along the Earth Grid... possibly having some connection to the rise/fall of the Atlantean civilization and/or visitations by a species of extraterrestrial origin.

I am also reverse engineering through the global distribution of language and genetics (DNA) to try and piece together what happened back then. I have only gotten as far back as 900 AD before I hit a stumbling block...It was at this time that a lot of the written records disappeared...So, I have to follow the Greek historians like Plutarch to try and find out what happened before that.

I do believe that we will be able to combine our unique talents here.

Aum Namah Shivaya
