I can't copy and paste the text. It's basically saying that the modern day Indians, both North and South, are largely descended from the ancient peoples of the Indus Valley Civilization, and that from 0 to 30% of their genes are from the ancient steppe migrants that brought the Indo-Aryan languages to the subcontinent which is precisely was brought in the second half of the 2nd millennium BCE(1500BCE). These early Indo-Iranians(Aryans) of the subcontinent were 60% Yamnaya, 30% European farmer-like ancestry and 10% central steppe hunter gatherer ancestry.

interesting. I used to denie the aryan invasion theory and didnt like it but now I dont anymore and let the scientists reveal the history and paint it. There are some indians who denie the aryan invasion theory though.

There were no invasion. Just migration, that's all. Remember, today's Indians regardless if they're Dravidians or Indo-Aryans are largely descended from the ancient peoples of the IVC. The reason why many Indians, especially Hindu nationalists, deny it is simply because they believe that they're the true natives of India while Muslims and others don't which is absurd considering that the basis of Hinduism and Sanskrit are from outside of India.

nothing surprising, upper castes of India are closest to the Europeans according to some study i saw in news couple of years ago. Buddha was a Kshatriya priest with blue eyes and Brahmins were described as Blond haired people.

most of the Indians are not from Aryan stock thats why i and many thinkers consider only upper 2 castes of Hindus to be true heirs of Vedic Aryans and civilizations.

personally speaking a large number of Scandos/Germans who follow conservative ideology have high respect for Vedic-Hindu religion and hold Brahmins in High regard, their customs and culture of Purity is something we should learn and implement in our lives.

------------

in many ways america is the New India, a fallen Aryavarta thats why i have decided to move back to the sweden to protect my Nordic bloodline.

Brahmins are genetically not closer to Europeans, and they cluster far more closely with other South Asians. What makes them distinct is their elevated ANI(ancient north indian) ancestry which is native to the subcontinent. Jatts have more elevated steppe ancestry, but in general, they tend to resemble more closer to middle easterners than to any European group whatsoever. Having blue eyes is not an indication in being White or else Bashar al-Assad is an "Aryan" even though he's a Semite. True Aryans are the Indo-Iranian peoples of the Caucasus(Ossetians and others), West, Central and South Asia, not Europeans. Hell, even gypsies or Romani people are ethnically Aryans like Mortimer, not you.
