<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ravana has taken a form of saint and goes to the hut of Sita while she was alone. Rama and Lakshmana are in search of the Maricha in the form of golden deer. Sita goes to attend the saint, since she thinks its a good omen and it would save Rama from any potential danger.</p>

<p><span style="color:#800000;">to the younger sister who drew me to this woman with loosened hair."</span></p>
<p><strong>Poet: Kamban</strong></p>
<p><strong>Translated by George L. Hart and Hank Heifetz</strong></p>
<p>Some of important features to note:</p>
<p>'கண்ணில் நோக்கினான - he saw her with his own eyes ' - Till now Ravan has heard of Sita's beauty only through Surpanaka, who with her words describing Sita has induced Ravana to a Love sickness. Surpanaka's success is indicated by the last lines 'தளை அவிழ் குழல் இவட்  கண்டு தந்த என் இளையவட்கு அளிப்பன் என் அரசு - I will give my kingdom away to the younger sister who drew me to this woman with loosened hair. '</p>
<p>Kamban also gives us an implied meaning that Ravana was actually in Love with Sita and just not the lust when he says more than the eyes his heart was ecstatic.</p>
<p>Kamban also employes sangam technique of Love sickness. Here tells about Ravana's longing and also he his shoulder has grown thin after seeing Sita.</p>
<p>Ravana envy's Indra for his Thousand eyes, since Indra being a God , he has the capability not to blink his eyes. Ravana wants 1000 eyes which don't blink so that he can continously have the pleasure of looking at ravishing beauty of Sita.</p>
<p>He wants to crown her the queen of the three worlds, since he feels Sita was more beautiful than wife of any God. Ravana feels he is the undisputed leader of the three worlds since he has defeated every god , so he thinks that the most beautiful women in the world should be rightfully his and hence would be the queen of the three worlds. By feeling this way he also pitys the poor state in which Sita lives.</p>
<p>He believes that crowning Sita the queen of the world would make her very happy and he could witness the mother nature's ultimate beauty , Sita's smile.</p>
<p>By introducing the love sickness , Kamaban has taken the great poetic pleasure of describing the beauty of Sita through the mouth of Ravana.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"> Articol scris pentru consursul lui Visurât si Arhi</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;margin:0;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> La prima vedere, titlul articolului pare paradoxal. Multă lume se va întreba, cum m-am întrebat şi eu la început, ce să caute dacii în Asia? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> O poezie a lui Mihai Eminescu mi-a atras atenţia în mod special asupra acestui paradox al existenţei dacilor în Asia. Poezia<span> </span>marelui nostru poet naţional se numeşte „De la Nistru pân’ la Tisa” şi<span> </span>zugrăveşte următoarea stare de lucruri:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;margin:0;">
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">De la China pân’ la Rin </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>De geto-daci pământu-i plin, </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>De la Vistula-n Grekia,</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Este scumpa mea Dakia.</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span></span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Mulţi au fost, puţini mai sunt,</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Căci destinul lor e crunt.</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Au venit năvălitori-</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Ca şi hoardele de ciori.</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Peste daci s-au aşezat,</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Pâinea toată le-a mâncat.</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Aurul lor l-au luat,</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Iar naţia le-a furat.</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Urmaşii geţilor de azi, </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Noi românii, nişte brazi,</span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Ne împuţinăm mereu , </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Căci n-aveam un Deceneu”</span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"></address>
<address class="MsoBodyTextIndent"></address>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Ca poet, Eminescu poate fi acuzat de naţionalism exacerbat, dar când şi istoricii, şi mai ales istoricii străini, afirmă acelaşi lucru, atunci trebuie să te apuci de treabă şi să cauţi dovezi pentru a sprijini „naţionalismul” lui Mihai Eminescu!</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Prin urmare, m-am apucat de treabă şi dovezile… au început să curgă găsindu-i pe daci ca locuitori şi element civilizator al Asiei din neolitic şi până… în secolul XV d.Ch ! </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong>Pelasgii în Orientul Apropiat şi în Orientul Mijlociu</strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;">
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">Din Dacia, locul unde a luat naştere şi s-a dezvoltat cultura şi civilizaţia pelasgă, dacii străvechi (pelasgii) s-au revărsat nu numai peste întreaga Europă străveche ci şi peste continentul asiatic. Prima lor escala în Asia a fost Orientul Apropiat şi cel Mijlociu.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> <a href="http://quadratus.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/dracons111.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-361" src="http://quadratus.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/dracons111.gif" alt="" width="260" height="350" /></a> </span>În ceea ce priveşte Asia Mică, Strabon ne spune, citându-l pe Menecrat Elaita, că toată regiunea maritimă, ce se numea pe atunci Ionia, a fost locuită de pelasgi (Geographia, XIII.3.3) fapt confirmat şi de Herodot care-i<span> </span>numeşte<span> </span>pe pelasgii care locuiau aici, Ionieni<span> </span>(Istorii,VII.94). Ionienii, au înfiinţat aşezări renumite precum oraşul Efes, unde au ridicat una dintre minunile lumii antice, Templul Artemidei. De remarcat că Artemis este figurată, nu aşa cum au perceput-o grecii, ca patronă a vânătorii şi pădurilor, ci ca zeiţă mamă, având pieptul plin de sâni. Alt oraş întemeiat de pelasgii ionieni, Milet, i-a dat lumii antice şi moderne pe Thales considerat unul dintre cei şapte înţelepţi ai antichităţii şi pe Hecateu, istoric al lumii antice. Tot Milet-ul a fost multă vreme o forţă maritimă rivalizând cu Cartagina şi Fenicia. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>O altă grupă însemnată de pelasgi, stabiliţi în Asia Mică la nord de Ionieni, au fost Eolii ( Istorii,VII.95) despre care aflăm de la Strabon că se extindeau până în Lidya inclusiv pe şesul Troiei (Geographia,XII.1.3). Cea mai renumită aşezare a lor, a fost Troia despre care legendele spun că avea zidurile construite de Apollo şi Poseidon. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Tot de naţionalitate pelasgă erau şi Lelegii care locuiau în Pisidia făcând parte din acelaşi neam cu<span> </span>Lelegii din părţile Troiei şi Cariei (Geographia XIII.1.59) şi pe care Iliada îi aminteşte alături de caoconi şi pelasgii divini.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> <span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">Despre alte seminţii pelasge răspândite în Asia Mică, aflăm din Geographia lui <span> </span>Strabon: <strong>Mysienii </strong>(VIII.3.2), <strong>Bithynii</strong> (VII.75) şi <strong>Caoconii </strong>(VIII.3.17), iar din Istorii-le lui Herodot, aflăm ce de aceeaşi origine erau<strong> Phrygienii</strong> (VII.73) şi <strong>Lydienii (</strong>I.171).</span> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span lang="RO"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><span> </span></span></span></span> După textele antice, locuitorii<span> </span>Capadociei, regiune situată în Anatolia de azi, făceau parte din acelaşi neam cu Frigienii. Mai mult, unul dintre oraşele Capadociei situat în partea de către Armenia, se numea Dacusa Euphratis iar un altul pomenit de Strabon (XII. 1.4) purta numele de<span> </span>Romnena (de la Râm, despre care Miron Costin<span> </span>spunea, ca de la el ne tragem toţi. Istoricii spun că acest Râm este o transliteraţie a cuvântului Roma.. Fie vorba între noi, greu de crezut că marele cărturar Miron Costin nu ştia pronunţa şi scrie corect Roma!).</span></span></span></span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="text-indent:0;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Herodot, spune că armenii erau descendenţi ai phrigienilor (Istorii,VII.73) care se trăgeau din marea tulpină pelasgă, dar Strabon (Geographia.XI.4.8) le atribuie o origine thesaliotă ei venind din Thesallia sub conducerea lui Arminius, participant la expediţia argonauţilor, care mai apoi i-a colonizat în văile superioare ale Tigrului şi Eufratului. Oricum ar fi, originea lor rămâne tot pelasgă întrucât Thesallia era locuită în vechime de pelasgi.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> În Mesopotamia prezenţa pelasgă se face simţită printr-o serie de<span> </span>toponime precum: Deba (asemănătoare fonetic cu Deva<span> ş</span>i Beba din România actuală), Ombrea, Drobeta (v. Drobeta Turnu Severin din România) şi Nisibis. Mai mult, civilizaţia mesopotamiană, a avut ca prim centru al dezvoltării sale, Sumerul<span> </span>ale cărui fundamente culturale sunt situate în zona Dunării de Jos, în Dacia pelasgă. Ne dovedeşte acest fapt scrierea „sumeriană” descoperită pe tăbliţele de la Tărtăria de Mureş mai veche cu cel puţin 1000 de ani decât civilizaţia sumeriană, precum şi tipul somatic al conducătorilor sumerieni<span> </span>care se adresau maselor cu expresia Sag-gig (capete negre) ceea ce înseamnă ca ei nu erau bruneţi ci şateni asa cum ne arată I.I.Russu. Pentru<span> </span>originea pelasgă a <a href="http://quadratus.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/tellasmar1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-363" src="http://quadratus.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/tellasmar1.jpg" alt="statuete de la Tell-Asmar" /></a>civilizaţiei sumeriene pledează şi statuetele descoperite la Tell-Asmar, în templul lui Abu, care prezintă caracterele rasiale ale subtipului uman carpatic precum si elemente de vestimentaţie asemănătoare pană la identitate cu portul tracilor macedoneni şi cu<span> </span>cămăşilor lungi bărbăteşti<span> </span>încinse la brâu,<span> </span>purtate de daci. Miturile sumerienilor ne învaţă că sumerienii erau originari dintr-o zonă muntoasă de la soare răsare adică din răsărit. Mai uimitor este faptul că unul dintre eposurile literaturii sumeriene face referire expresă la Dacia. Mitul se numeşte „Zborul lui Ethan spre cer” si oferă<span> </span>detalii despre Dacia! În repetate rânduri se aminteşte de „marea de lângă cetatea munţilor” Ciudat... nici una dintre<span> </span>regiunile învecinate Sumerului nu posedă asa ceva. Prima regiune care corespunde acestei descrieri din apropierea Sumerului este….Transilvania! Depresiunea Transilvaniei, Ardealul, apare ca o cetate naturala înconjurată de munţi iar în imedita ei apropiere se afla Marea Neagră! </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>La toate acestea, se mai adaugă un fapt deloc de neglijat: limba sumerienilor are foarte multe cuvinte comune cu limba română. Paul Lazăr Tonciulescu si Eugen Delcea cercetând literatura de specialitate<span> </span>au descoperit nu mai puţin de 83 de cuvinte<span> </span>sumeriene identice ca înţeles cu cele din daco-română.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Primii locuitori ai Palestinei sunt descrişi în Vechiul Testament drept războinici şi având o statură impunătoare (Iosua 12:4) asemenea giganţilor situaţi de Nicolae Densuşianu<span> </span>în nordul Dunării de Jos. Existenţa pelasgilor în Palestina este documentată şi prin existenţa unor toponime ca: Scytopolis, despre care Pliniu ne spune că era o colonie de sciţi, Rama, Arimateea, etc. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Populaţia cea mai războinică<span> </span>a Palestinei preebraice se numea Amorei derivat din<span> </span>etnonimul Aromei / Aramei , nume purtat de toate seminţiile locuitoare cândva în teritoriile Siriei, Asiriei, Sumerului, Babilonului şi Arabiei. Aceasta înseamnă ca<span> </span>acest nume reprezenta o altă denumire etnică a pelasgilor.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Şi în Peninsula Arabia avem<span> </span>toponime care amintesc de pelasgi: Istriana (v. Istru) Satula (v. Sătulă), Lugana (v. Lugaş, Lugoj, Lungana), Carna (v. Cerna, Cârna), Domana, Amara, Draga, Nassaudum (v. Năsăud).Arabii erau<span> </span>cunoscuţi în antichitate ca făcând parte din neamul Arameilor. Numele etnic al arabilor se presupune că se trage din numele părintelui lor eponim Arabus un fiu al lui Hermes sau Armis al Daciei (Strabon, I.2.34)</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Pelasgii au constituit de asemenea, elementul dominant şi civilizator al Indiei.</span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
[caption id="attachment_364" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="Rama, printul scit "]<a href="http://quadratus.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/rama_tirtha1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-364" src="http://quadratus.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/rama_tirtha1.jpg?w=300" alt="Rama, printul scit " width="300" height="289" /></a>[/caption]
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"> Unul dintre cele mai vechi poeme<span> </span>indiene se numeşte Ramayana şi glorifică faptele prinţului Rama în care se spune că s-a întrupat Vishnu, spiritul cel bun al universului, pe care-l numeşte la un moment dat „prinţ scit”. </span></div>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">Cele mai vechi scrieri religioase indiene poartă titlul Veda. Ele sunt în număr de 4 si cuprind Revelaţia hindusă. Ceea ce este interesant însă este faptul că Revelaţia este<span> </span>„descoperirea” sau „vederea interioară” iar titlul acestor scrieri poate fi apropiat foarte lesne de cuvântul românesc „a vedea”.</span></span></span></p>
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Foarte interesantă este afirmaţia lui Strabon, cum că pe teritoriul Indiei, existau trei neamuri mai însemnate<span> </span>şi anume: Brachmanes, Garmanes şi Pramnae (Geographia XV.1.59), dintre care ce-i mai cucernici erau brahmanii. Ei duceau o viaţă frugală, mâncând numai fructe şi bând doar apă, erau devotaţi filosofiei, adorând cu deosebire Soarele, îşi duceau viaţă sub cerul liber şi considerau moartea drept o naştere pentru o viaţă mai fericită. (întocmai ca şi kapnobataii daci sau ca şi ktistaii o altă ramură de preoţi asceţi, daci). Aceşti Brahmani au avut tot timpul supremaţia socială şi religioasă a Indiei. Ei însă nu formau doar o casta sau sectă religioasă ci un neam numeros divizat în mai multe seminţii. Etimologic vorbind numele de Brahmani, Garmani şi Pramni, nu sunt decât derivate ale<span> </span>numelor etnice ahmani / rohmani, </span></p>
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span></div>
<p></span></div>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">armani şi Rami/Ramni, nume sub care erau cunoscuţi<span> </span>pelasgii<span> </span>la unii autori antici ca urmaşi ai lui Ra/Ram, zeul cerului şi al Soarelui.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Mai mult, studiind poemele clasice ca şi scrierile religioase indiene, Nic. Densuşianu ne pune în evidenţă peste 40 de cuvinte cu corespondent român si latin.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong></strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong>Continuitatea pelasgo - <span> </span>dacică în continentul asiatic</strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> <a href="http://quadratus.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/dragon-007b.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-362" src="http://quadratus.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/dragon-007b.jpg" alt="" width="174" height="250" /></a> Felix Colson, istoric francez, ne atrage atenţia afirmând categoric: „toţi dacii sunt pelasgi” (şi adăugam noi, oriunde s-ar afla ei).</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Continuitatea neamului pelasg sub forma etnonimului dac în Asia, este atestată de numeroase izvoare antice şi cercetări moderne. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> După cum am văzut, în epocile vechi, pelasgii erau elementul dominant şi civilizator în întregul continent asiatic. Interesant este însă ca urmaşii lor, dacii, sunt prezenţi în aceleaşi teritorii pe care erau răspândiţi<span> şi </span></span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">pelasgii, însă par a se extinde mult mai departe ajungând chiar până în China. Şi se pare că, asemenea pelasgilor în epoca străveche, dacii au jucat în antichitatea clasică, roluri deloc de neglijat.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span>De pildă, Ana-Maria Coman, care a scris un articol pe marginea unei lucrări a lui J. Saint – Martin, ne atrage atenţia spunând: „ originea parţilor este legată mai ales de tribul Dahae sau Dahi. Cu ajutorul lui şi-a dobândit Thiridate independenţa; (aceştia) erau printre cele mai puternice neamuri scitice, numeroasele lor ramificaţii fiind răspândite în Europa şi Asia”. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Mai mult cărţile lui Zoroastru<span> </span>vorbesc despre acest neam straşnic de tot, care a dat<span> </span>printre altele şi numele Mării Caspice.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Herodot de asemenea afirmă că<span> </span>încă înainte de Cyrus multe triburi Dahae pătrunseseră în interiorul Persiei.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> În condiţiile în care neamul dacilor<span> </span>se răspândise, încă din străvechime până în Persia<span>, </span>nu mai trebuie să ne mire faptul că Decebal, în faţa ameninţarii romane, a cerut ajutorul lui Pacorus regele Partilor. În timp ce Traian era ocupat cu<span> </span>războaiele cu dacii, prinţii din a doua ramură Arsacidă au atacat posesiunile romane din orient .</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Extraordinara extensiune a dacilor ca neam este dată şi de afirmaţia<span> </span>Anei Maria Coman că Bactria, provincie învecinată Chinei,<span> </span>era locuită de numeroase triburi Dahae. Mai mult în lucrările<span> </span>istoricilor chinezi, Bactria purta numele de Tahia, mai exact de Dacia.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Această denumire coincide cu cea care serveşte la denumirea ţării pe care Dahii, o posedau în Europa</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>La autorii chinezi apare<span> </span>alături de Bactria şi Dahia arsacizilor extinsă în Persia şi Armenia. </span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span> <a href="http://quadratus.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/asarcid1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-379" src="http://quadratus.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/asarcid1.jpg" alt="" width="122" height="138" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"> Sub dinastia arsacizilor, care făceau parte din marea familie a Cuşanilor, al căror nume era acela de daci, s-a constituit un<span> </span>imperiu puternic şi înfloritor, cuprinzând teritoriile Asiei Centrale şi de Sud, tocmai în perioada de ascensiune a Imperiului roman. Acest imperiu cuprindea Persia, Armenia, Bactriana (Dacia), Massageţia (Geţia mare), ţinuturile din jurul Caucazului şi din nordul Mării Negre.</span></div>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"> <span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Xenofon ne vorbeşte despre dacii din regiunea transcaspiană. Tot pe coasta orientală a Mării Caspice, Pliniu cel Tânăr semnalează populaţia numită Dahae.</span></span></p>
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span></div>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Pârvan îi semnalează pe daci, sub numele de <strong>Dahae</strong>, în Turkestan, iar în sud estul Mării Caspice<span> </span>exista în antichitate un teritoriu numit <strong>Dahos</strong>.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Apoi, anticul<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> </span><strong>Parthyene, </strong><span>ţinut </span><span>situat azi în partea asiatică a Rusiei</span><strong>,</strong> poartă şi numele <strong>Dakistan.</strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong> </strong> Pe malul sudic al Mării Caspice, la nord de Azerbadjan, se află <strong>Daghestanul (Dag</strong> fiind tot o derivaţie a termenului etnic <strong>dac).</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"><strong><span style="font-size:large;">Massageţii</span></strong><span style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span>sunt menţionaţi în documente încă din secolul VII î.Ch ca locuind între Marea Caspică si Amu-Daria. În istoria Asiei ei sunt cei care ,sub conducerea reginei <strong>Tomiris</strong>, sunt cunoscuţi ca învigători ai<span> </span>puternicului rege persan, <strong>Cyrus</strong>. </span></span><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;">Numai că dovezi recente arată că aceştia se întindeau pană în China. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> După opinia specialiştilor, străini de astă dată, dacii sunt cunoscuţi în China sub numele de Yu-Ci, ortografiat Yue-Tchi, Yue-ti, Yut sau Ye-Ta. Pentru vechimea elementului etnic dac în China, pledează şi numele împăratului care a fondat dinastia Xia pe numele sau Dayu (Yu cel Mare). Principalele ramuri ale<span> </span>geţilor sunt cunoscute în analele chineze<span> </span>sub numele Marii Yue-tchi, Micii Yue-tchi şi Yue-tchi al Huandong-ului. Sub aceleaşi nume, dacii apar amestecaţi şi printre tibetanii occidentali. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Marii Yue-tchi au fabricat sticla colorată sub Daowu Di din dinastia Goei.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> După Strabon familia Yue-tchi cuprinde neamurile asii-lor, pasiani-lor, tochari-lor şi sakarauţi-lor. </span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Această<span> </span>mare famile de<span> </span>daci (Yue tchi) şi-a avut aşezările între Munţii Nan-Shan, afluenţii Burunghirului şi partea superioară a Huang-he-ului. Prin urmare posedau o parte din China si<span> </span>Tangut.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Dat fiind conservatorismul dac, este de presupus că odată cu mişcarea<span> </span>neamurilor dace spre China, s-a mişcat şi credinţa lor, zamolxianism-ul, întrucât se ştie că dacii credeau că nu există alt zeu în afară de al lor. Unde poate fi surprinsă înfluenţa zamolxianism-ului în China?<span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Există o religie<span> </span>care nu prea are nimic de-a face cu<span> </span>speculaţiile religioase chinezeşti, anume daoism-ul. Însuşi cuvântul Dao, derivă din etnonimul dac, <span>ştiut fiind că frigienii îi</span> <span>numeau pe daci </span>daous, având<span> </span>semnificaţia cale. Concluzia este că<span> </span>daoism-ul este calea dacilor de a ajunge la Zeu. De ce? Pentru că toate religiile chineze poartă numele fondatorului lor (v. Confucianism-ul). Dar daoism-ul nu<span> </span>are aproape nimic în comun cu filozofia lui Lao-Tzi şi nici nu-i poartă numele. Cu atat mai mult cu cât daoism-ul nu a avut o influenţă foarte mare în China , ci numai pe alocuri pe unde erau răspândiţi dacii. Originea dacică a daoism-ului<span> </span>poate fi probată şi prin<span> </span>existenţa masivă a toponimelor şi antroponimelor dacice în regiuni apropiate de China, la stabilirea lor în această ţară dacii nerenunţand la religia lor<span> </span>originară, care împletindu-se cu vechile credinte<span> </span>chinezesti au dat naştere daoismului</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Geţii au existat ca popor de sine stătător si în India fiind cunoscuţi subnumele de Yut Yat Jut Jhut. Ei ocupau Hindustanul septentrional si valea Indului.<span> </span>Specialiştii sunt<span> </span>de acord că populaţia rurala din Pundjab<span> </span>se trage din acest corp etnic al Yut-şilor. De asemena populaţia Yut formeza pricipala etnie din regiunea Sindi, iar în Belucistan, poporul Yut a format prin amestecul cu<span> </span>baluchii, poporul Jugdalli.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Descendenţii dacilor cunoscuţi sub numele Yut în India si Yue–tchi în China erau prezenţi<span> </span>şi în secolul XIX în<span> </span>India, în nord-estul provinciei Gudjarat aflându-se regiunea Jutvar<span> </span>(Ţara lui Yut sau a Yut-şilor<span style="text-decoration:underline;">)</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Iată ce am descoperit în urma afirmaţiei dintr-o poezie a lui Eminescu !</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"> Dacii; după cum putem observa, au dat o notă aparte civilizaţiei orientale prin religia lor introdusă în China, sub forma daoismului, prin<span> </span>infiinţarea dinastiei Arsacizilor , ei constituind şi un procent important din populaţia Asiei.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Arial;"><span> </span>Acum, fiind dovedită cu destule dovezi credem noi, existenţa dacilor în Asia, nu putem decât să-i dăm dreptate lui Eminescu, care spunea: “De la China pân’ la Rin / De geto-daci pământu-i plin”:)</span></p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">Kalau aku mendengarkan lagunya Rama yang berjudul Lagu Cinta, wah bisa aku ulangi beberapa kali deh. Menurutku lagunya itu enak didengar, dan liriknya itu sangat mengena banget.</p>
<blockquote><p><em> Sungguh aku mencintaimu<br />
Biarpun orang tak ada yang percaya<br />
Ku akan membuktikan<br />
Dengan hati dan tubuhku</em><!--more--><br />
<em><br />
Sungguh aku menginginkanmu<br />
Menjadi malaikat yang menuntunmu<br />
Membawaku ke dalam<br />
Dunia yang penuh cinta</em></p>
<p><em>Reff:<br />
Aku mencintaimu<br />
Seperti bintang yang mencintai malam<br />
Dan aku akan memberi<br />
Seluruh jiwaku</em></p>
<p><em>Aku menginginkanmu<br />
Meskipun bumi tak pernah mengizinkan<br />
Bila memang itu yang terjadi<br />
Aku tak peduli</em></p>
<p><em>Sesungguhnya kau menginginkanmu<br />
Meskipun mereka menentang cintaku<br />
Ku akan perjuangkan<br />
Hingga jantungku berhenti</em></p>

<span style="color:#d5d1c4;">.</span><strong>SPRING POEM</strong></p>
<p>While watching all these early buds and swallows,<br />
I can feel tonight<br />
that my heart’s slowly growing over sorrows<br />
as someone’s horizon on smiley days might;</p>
<p>That it’s getting bigger like all plants around<br />
and as light as feather,<br />
and that all happiness that’s above the ground<br />
and a Hell of pain wouldn’t really matter:</p>
<p>It’s longing for all things that a life as such<br />
could give nice to thy,<br />
and completely nothing wouldn’t be too much--<br />
it’s eager desire and hopes are so high.</p>
<p>Everything that’s happened has been just a play<br />
of my heart on fire;<br />
my true love has never been given away<br />
as much as I could and as I desire;</p>
<p>There are, in my deeps, gentle tides of words<br />
never let outside;<br />
I could give my heart to everyone on worlds,<br />
yet, it would remain a lot of it inside.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Tadi sore jam 15 sampe jam 18, saya menghadiri peluncuran buku Blind Power yang ditulis oleh Eko Ram]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tadi sore jam 15 sampe jam 18, saya menghadiri peluncuran buku Blind Power yang ditulis oleh Eko Ramaditya Adikara. Rama, begitulah dia dipanggil, adalah seorang Game Music Composer, Blogger, Motivator, Penulis, Wartawan dan Editor. Yang membuat saya terkesan adalah bahwa Rama ini memiliki keterbatasan dalam penglihatan sejak lahir. Subhanallaah...! Coba deh bayangin, menjadi game music composer untuk game Nintendo. Bahasa Inggris Rama juga fasih sekali. Malu euy kalah sama dia yang memiliki keterbatasan.</p>
[caption id="attachment_711" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Rama, Pejabat DPD, Kekasih Rama, Adik Rama (wartawan yg memperkenalkan Pejabat DPD dengan Rama)"]<a href="http://ipk4cumlaude.wordpress.com/files/2008/08/img_1857.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-711" src="http://ipk4cumlaude.wordpress.com/files/2008/08/img_1857.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="267" /></a>[/caption]
<p><!--more-->Buat saya, keterbatasan itu ada di dalam fikiran kita. Walaupun fisik kita normal sebenernya kita itu emang terbatas. Misalnya, waktu kita terbatas: 24 jam sehari. Namun dalam hal menggapai cita-cita, kitalah yang semakin membatasi diri. Ga bisa ini lah, ga mampu itulah. Sehingga cita-cita kita masih tetap menggantung di bintang. Dan ternyata batasan-batasan yang dibuat oleh Rama telah melalui batasan fisiknya. Subhanallaah. Inilah yang menjadi inspirasi buat saya agar memperluas batasan dalam mengarungi kehidupan ini, jangan kalah sama seorang Rama yang udah nulis buku Blind Power ini.</p>
<p>Pengakuan beliau yang baru saat ini diucapkan, termasuk kepada kedua orang tuanya adalah bahwa buku ini ditulisnya sejak 16 tahun yang lalu. Waktu itu, kata hatinya berkata bahwa dia harus menuliskan kisah hidupnya. Makanya dia harus belajar komputer. Lalu kata hatinya berkata maen video game, ya dia melakukannya. Begitulan Rama yang selalu mengikuti apa kata hatinya. Termasuk keputusannya masuk sekolah umum sejak SMP sampai kuliah. Saat kuliah dia memutuskan untuk berhenti untuk membereskan buku Blind Power ini dalam 5 tahun tersisia. Dia juga mengikuti kata hatinya untuk memutuskan kekasihnya waktu itu. Sepertinya, saya pernah baca potingan di blognya yg di multiply mengenai permasalahan ini beberapa bulan atau tahun silam.</p>
<p>Di acara itu, wakil ketua DPD berkenan hadir dan memberikan speechnya pada khalayak. Juga seorang anak kecil kalau bener namanya Anisa yang katanya anak indigo gitu. Si anak ini ternyata udah meluncurkan buku duluan beberapa waktu yang lalu. Dan Rama menjadi tamu kehormatannya. Gantian... :lol:</p>
<p>Saya dan tentunya Rama, juga penerbit (termasuk Bang Heri) menginginkan buku ini sukses menjadi best seller. Walaupun belum dibaca, saya yakin buku ini akan nangkring di rak kumpulan buku terbaik saya. Buku ini juga merupakan Pilot Project bagi penerbit Grafindo. Dan mudah2an buku ini dapat memenuhi harapan Rama di mana dalam 10 tahun ke depan beliau mencita-citakan sebuah rumah dari hasil penjualan buku ini. Istajiblanaa Amin.</p>
<p>Ada yg sayang di acara ini, kostum Rama berwarna hitam, jadi gelap di hasil foto saya (halah malah mikirin foto). Dan satu lagi, kok yang di cover pake kutipan komentarnya Roy Suryo sih (no offense loh Om Roy), kenapa ga Gus Dur?</p>
<p>Selain acara peluncuran buku, di Munik Restoran, Jl Matraman Raya juga, saya dan Bang Azwan berkopdar walau sebentar...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mani Ratnam is coming out with an <a href="http://www.buzz18.com/news/movies/abhiash-to-play-ram-and-sita/76421/0" target="_blank">adaptation of Ramayan</a>, with Abhishek and Aishwarya Bachchan in the roles of Ram and Sita (and I am guessing Amitabh Give-me-any-role Bachchan will be Dashratha while Jaya Bachchan will be in a triple role playing his 3 wives, where all 3 would be eager to send Rama to the forest so that she can put her onscreen crying skills to some good use).</p>
<p>While people belonging to the <a href="http://iyerdeepak.wordpress.com/2008/07/13/indian-priory-of-sion/" target="_blank">Suryavamsha line</a> and nearby points can stop reading and start preparing for their next project, the most interested piece is this :</p>
<p><em>As reported by <em>Mumbai Mirror</em>, Ratnam was very keen on casting the couple as Ram and Sita. What's more is that <acronym title="Govinda">Govinda</acronym> has very keenly stepped into the shoes of Hanuman.</em></p>
<p>Probably this will be the only Ramayana where Sita would have to <a href="http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1019812" target="_blank">wait a whole lot longer</a> for Hanuman in the Ashoka Vatika and Hanuman <a href="http://www.rediff.com/news/2008/jul/16govinda.htm" target="_blank">might be missing in the final war too</a>. But all that aside, I sincerely hope Mani Ratnam uses this same video when Hanuman is pursuading Sita to come back with him, with the female rakshasis all around : <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCU_tnnuwEs" target="_blank">Link</a></p>

<description><![CDATA[Today I have completed a nine-week intensive painting marathon! Lots of new material (pics coming so]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I have completed a nine-week intensive painting marathon! Lots of new material (pics coming soon). It has required a lot of discipline and grit to see it through -- 10 and 14 hour days.  Sigh.  Anyways, my painterly paradox could not have been completed at a more perfect time: tomorrow morning marks the auspicious appearance of Sri Krsna (AKA: Sri Krsna janmastami).</p>
<p>Over the past few days, in the in-between moments, my mind has wandered off to vibrant recollections of this day in Mathura/Vrndavan.  The merriment, the dancing, the joy, the music, and of course, the extraordinary krsna-katha early in the morning at Kesava ji Gaudiya Matha. . .</p>
<p>In the course of refreshing my mind and spirit with narrations of Sri Krsna's lilas, I came across this famous introduction to the classic volumes entitled KRSNA, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, which I present  below. Although not in Sri Braja-Mandala dhama this year, I feel blessed and happy to be alive on this planet, mother earth, whose heart has been touched by the soft lotus feet of her Beloved, Sri Krsna.  May we all be so lucky, one day.</p>
<p><strong>Krsna Book Introduction by George Harrison:</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Everybody is looking for </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">KRISHNA</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Some don't realize that they are, but they are.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">KRISHNA</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;"> is God, the Source of all that exists, the cause of all that is, was, or ever will be.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">As God is unlimited, he has many names.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Allah-Buddha-Jehova-Rama: All are </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">KRISHNA</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">, all are ONE.</span></p>
<p>God is not abstract; He has both the impersonal and the personal aspects to His personality which is SUPREME, ETERNAL, BLISSFUL, and full of KNOWLEDGE. As a single drop of water has the same qualities as an ocean of water, so has our consciousness the qualities of God's consciousness... but through our identification and attachment with material energy (physical body, sense pleasures, material possessions, ego, etc.) our true transcendental consciousness has been polluted, and like a dirty mirror it is unable to reflet a pure image.</p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">With many lives our association with the temporary has grown. This impermanent body, a bag of bones and flesh, is mistaken for our true self, and we have accepted this temporary condition to be final.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Through all ages, great saints have remained as living proof that this non-temporary, permanent state of God consciousness can be revived in all living Souls. Each soul is potentially divine. Krsna says in Bhagavad Gita: "Steady in the Self, being freed from all material contamination, the yogi achieves the highest perfetional stage of happiness in touch with the Supreme Consciousness." Ch. 6, text 28<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Yoga (a scientific method for God (self) realization) is the process by which we puirify our consciousness, stop further pollution, and arrive at the state of perfection, full knowledge, full bliss.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">If there's a God, I want to see Him. It's pointless to believe in something without proof, and Krishna Consciousness and meditation are methods where you can actually obtain God preception. You can actually see God, and Hear Him, play with Him. It might sound crazy, but He is actually there, actually with you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">There are many yogic Paths--Raja, Jnana, Hatha, Kriya, Karma, Bhakti--which are all acclaimed by the masters of each method.</span></p>
<p>Swami Bhaktivedanta is as his title says, a Bhakti Yogi following the path of DEVOTION. By serving God through each thought, word, and deed, and by chanting His Holy Names, the devotee quickly develops God-consciousness. By chanting</p>
<p style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna<br />
</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Krishna</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;"> </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">Krishna</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">, Hare Hare<br />
Hare Rama, Hare Rama</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:&#34;">I request that you take advantage of this book KRSNA, and enter into its understanding. I also request that you make an appointment to meet your God now, through the self liberating process of Yoga (union) and GIVE PEACE A CHANCE.<br />
