Ancient India and America - The Oneness Connection Series Part 3 - Indian Kala Bhairava and Aztec God

The art style is discernibly Indian as in no other religion of the world deities of this type were worshiped. It may be mentioned that the ruling dynasty of Mexico at the time of the conquest by Spaniards was 'Aztec' or Ashtakam (Eight). Ashtakam' refers to a particular form of poetry, written in eight stanzas.

The evidence in the form of such images leaves little doubt about the presence of Indian culture amongst the ancient Mexicans. The seal pertains to the period of more than eight centuries before Columbus set foot on the soil of the so-called New World. The stone sculptures are adornments of a Mayan temple and depict some popular history prevalent amongst the people of the time.

Bishop Landa states that "Maya people…had a very great number of idols and temples which were magnificent in their own fashion and besides the community temples, the lords, priests and leading men also had oratories and idols in their houses where they made their prayers and offerings in private".

Not only of gods but idols of even animals and insects were prepared by Maya people, who believed in immortality of soul and afterlife. This definitely smacks of an Indian connection.

More serious efforts to connect the ancient American civilizations with those of ancient India have to be made.

On the other hand, Bhairava is a Hindu deity God, a fierce manifestation of Shiva associated with annihilation. He is worshiped throughout India, Nepal, China, Burma, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, USA and other parts of the world.

Bhairava is the fiercest form of Mahadev Shiva and they guard the cardinal points. There are 64 Bhairavas. These 64 Bhairavas are grouped under 8 categories and each category is headed by one major Bhairava. The major eight Bhairavas are called Aṣṭāṅga Bhairavas. The Ashta Bhairavas control the 8 directions of this universe. Each Bhairava has eight sub Bhairavas under them, totaling 64 Bhairavas.

All of the Bhairavas are ruled and controlled by Maha Swarna Kala Bhairava otherwise known as Kala Bhairava, who is the supreme ruler of time of this universe! Kala/kalam means Time!
