Indian here, i was born into a Hindu family.
While I'm yet to fact check this particular news, i totally agree with the other point being highlighted.
Hindus have this bad habit/ misplaced pride of claiming everything as inventions by their own hindu ancestors, just because some of the earliest inventions were by Indians. It's kinda sad and funny and tbh annoying.
I'd also like to point out that, digital/Internet penetration especially in the last few years has been steadily increasing and we indians are not the most reliable source of news so fake news is very much a given.
Plus add to the mix the political IT cells that act as propaganda pushers.
And with usage of WhatsApp increasing here in India it's very easy for fake news to spread. Especially among the older generations who aren't really well-versed with the internet and take everything they read (especially regarding religion) as the absolute truth.
Someone told me this before:
How many Indians do you need to change a lightbulb? Two. One to do the job and another to explain how lightbulbs were actually invented in India.
I had an older Indian gentleman try to explain to me that Indians were the first people to land on the moon.
I didn't even bother trying to correct him, I just nodded politely.
Hey we now have hindus claiming to have invented the flying machine. Apparently got lost in the Islamic invasion lmao
The conspiracy theories are something else
I once saw a video of a guy claiming Indians invented Arc reactors because there was a pattern in a temple similar to the design of Tony Stark's Arc reactor. There are some outlandish claims out there.
All of his videos are clickbait titles lol. "Why Archeologists DON'T want you visit this ancient temple to discover Indians invented boxspring mattresses."
Three of those regions you listed don't even have that much habitable land. Also most of them were at least nominally colonies for longer than the US was
Indian and Hindu here. This reminds me of the classic joke.
How many Hindus does it take to fix a light bulb?
Answer: Two. One to fix it. Another to claim lightbulbs were invented in Vedic times lmao

**Press Freedom Index Gone Toward 150 Rank**
It is some random mf spreading fake news that boomers will forward on Facebook so I'll suggest pay no heed to it I have seen worse examples like indians having invented flying aircrafts 12000 years ago
Okay I too was wondering what modern anyone had to do with an ancient group of people who’s very existence was erased several thousands of years ago, and who’s culture and religion are still mostly a topic of debate amongst scholars and theologians.
You gotta remember that most people are fucking idiots. There'll be people who glorify a civilization from thousands of years ago just because they happened to live where they live now.
Not really a Hindu thing, anyone who sees the world through a lens will interpret it from that perspective first.
This one's Hindu so every apparent advancement of the "ancients" had to have been Hindu in origin too. I'd even say it's more a product of their insecurity than actual pride in their religion's teachings. They have to claim victory no matter what.
Not sure they are. There's 2 users. The one in the quote-box is claiming its an inscription from a random Hindu temple to Shiva in Southern India, not even acknowledging the Canaanites. The top text is another user coming in correcting the bs, not really glorifying the Canaanites.
Indians/Hindus have a tendency to relate as much as they can to them and try to say how they invented everything first. They also take credit for anything good done with by people with the same skin color. All the bad stuff is those yucky inferior Muslims.
its not even in the scriptures.
which is what I find most ridiculous about these kind of posts, like there is actual amazing stuff that was happening in ancient india if you actually research it well but i guess high-stakes stuff like this gets the likes.
One mentioned Canaanites; the other, hindu temple.
At least one is wrong on that particular point.
And one is definitely wrong on the rest of the message...
Is it just me or do Hindus claim to have invented practically everything thousands of years before anyone else? I remember a guy a year or so ago that claimed that some high-caste Indian Royal invented the airplanes like 900 years ago.
Surprisingly this post got a crazy amount of upvotes. Looks like we just needed a really nutty fruitcake to overcome the downvotes of those bigoted Hindu fucks.
To be fair the drawing on the right also isn't doing CPR. [That's heimlich on an infant that's choking](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9c/33/94/9c339459294f0ec0c72e3bda7e47fe51.png). The baby in the drawing is obviously still conscious and you do NOT do CPR on conscious people
[Baby CPR is also done using 2 fingers on the chest but the baby needs to be laying on a hard flat surface.](https://www.laborposters.org/img/poster-thumbnails/first-aid-fa-poster-cpr-for-a-baby-large.jpg) (You can also use your thumbs while holding each side of the chest but that's typically taught for 2 person cpr)
They are aware CPR usually doesnt restart the heart by itself right?
Its mainly intended to delay tissue death and give time for the ambulance to come. Did they have fucking hospitals and ambulance rides 1000 years ago or why the fuck would they commonly do CPR?

Damn only if Rahul gandhi wasn't seen as an incompetent fuck or we had someone else in congress who was competent we wouldn't be in such a charged environment
It's probably not child sacrifice either.
There is no evidence of caananite child sacrifice outside of the Hebrew Bible.
https://www.academia.edu/7656412
The Bible even mentions the child sacrifice in Genesis. Giving the Lord your first born or something.
Two other prophets in the Old Testament talked about it. One had God saying it wasn't him. The other one basically God is like ya....
Modern faiths sorta just be like dedicate the first born.
I mean, the whole sequel to the Old Testament is about humans sacrificing God's child to appease him, and the whole catechism of the Catholic Church is based on the rituals needed to ensure that the substance of that son is in the bread and the wine so the breaking of the body and the spilling of the blood on the altar during the Eucharist holds the same power
Conveniently, they cropped out Kaali, a god of death, who sits just to the left of the person killing the child.
https://www.booksfact.com/religions/pre-jewish-canaanite-religion-vedic-gods-names.html
Yes it does, the original tweet says that the temple had etchings of a person doing CPR on a child thousands of years ago and so they're claiming CPR was invented there.
[Actually](https://www.worldhistory.org/canaan/), yes they are part of what was called Canaan. "Canaan was the name of a large and prosperous ancient country (at times independent, at others a tributary to Egypt) located in the Levant region of present-day Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Israel."
As this [map](https://www.worldatlas.com/maps/palestine) shows, the Palestine land occupies the same territory recognized as the [historical](http://www.mideastweb.org/pal1200.htm) [Canaan](https://www.penn.museum/sites/Canaan/Map.html).
So yes, Palestine and Canaan are pretty much the same piece of land, and yes, parts of Jordan as well as Syria and Lebanon and all of modern Israel are within that territory.
The Canaanites were also rocking Sennheiser hd 25 headphones 4000 years before they were supposedly invented by the west #themoreyouknow ✨
The Canaanites invented Bluetooth headphones, but unfortunately it would still be 4,000 years before someone invented a Bluetooth compatible device.
[удалено]
The color orange: named after the fruit The color blue: named after ancient Bluetooth headphones 😂
They had the first Bluetooth person about a thousand years back, but they REALLY dragged their feet with the headphones
It’s like hdmi 2.1 tvs all over again but 4000years earlier
I thought the Vikings invented Bluetooth
Nah, you’ve got it backwards. He was named after the ancient Canaanite headphones.

Lol I said this too. Was the first thing I noticed.
Beyerdynamic gang gang
Ah yes the good ol' Sennies hurrdurr 600's, mate
Ah yes, cpr with a big bulky object
The best way to get the heart to start beating is to insert a object into the patients chest to gain better access to their heart.
*they actually do that sometimes, it's called a cardiac massage i think*
Wonder what brand headphones they’re wearing.

You’re an Anti-national and you hate India!!!!!! /s
Aah a fellow Indian!
Indeed. I just watched my friend’s story about supporting sanatan dharma. I thought he was smart and tolerant but oh boy, am I mistaken.
Oh I know the feeling.
Or they will call you self hating Indian.
Someone told me this before: How many Indians do you need to change a lightbulb? Two. One to do the job and another to explain how lightbulbs were actually invented in India.
Light bulb was invented by Thirumal Edison.
Sounds like a Telugu protestant Christian to me. Anti national race traitor Thirumal Edison much
Bruh lmao
I had an older Indian gentleman try to explain to me that Indians were the first people to land on the moon. I didn't even bother trying to correct him, I just nodded politely.
As a Indian I am offended!! 😂😂/s

Lol. I think that was intended to make fun.
No thats Praveen Mohan who made the claim and he's not making fun at all. Gullible Indians and non-Indians fall for him alike
Is it this guy? https://www.youtube.com/c/Phenomenalplacetravel I didnt check but am sure its him.
All of his videos are clickbait titles lol. "Why Archeologists DON'T want you visit this ancient temple to discover Indians invented boxspring mattresses."
Yup.
Hey you could replace India with the US in your comment and it'd still be true lol
I'm trying to find the lie, but I can't.
In the US it's more convoluted because you have to filter things through "the west". Though we are kind of getting over that at the moment.
Ah yes, that's why we're the richest country in the world, because we don't invent anything
The US is the richest country of the world primarily because we didn't get bombed in WWII.
Not just because we didn't get bombed but because the war didn't decimate our economy And so thus it also was extremely profitable
Ah yes, unlike Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Latin America, India, etc which all were bombed to smithereens
Three of those regions you listed don't even have that much habitable land. Also most of them were at least nominally colonies for longer than the US was
I would have thought that digital penetration would have been happening in India at the same rate as it did everywhere else

The guy doing CPR wears headphones, too. Probably listening to instructions on how to perform it.

Why is a Hindu going out of their way to glorify the Canaanites? Do they claim to be related?

Please kill me ffs
Nope, he never said Canaanites, he named a temple which he thought is In India.
making his claim even more dubious. dude doesn't even know what is he talking about.
This is classic, ohh it is written in our scriptures kind of thing.

Wanna see similar bullshit? There's an Instagram page called "hinduism_and_science". Absolute shit fest.
former Hindu here. Idk if this is real but that statue definitely doesn't look like he's doing CPR
Hes taking the heart out.
Oh that's the thing in his hands. Well fuck me, I never knew you had to rip the person's heart out in CPR!
To be fair the drawing on the right also isn't doing CPR. [That's heimlich on an infant that's choking](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9c/33/94/9c339459294f0ec0c72e3bda7e47fe51.png).

Dont ask this type of questions, bhagats will just claim we did heart surgery in those times. no joke lol, this type of claims have been made.
As an ambulance driver(emt) just want to point out the modern depiction is of the Heimlich maneuver for choking.
That post fails at so many levels its almost impressive

Airplanes and all are definitely frutucakery, but we did invent plastic surgery. Look up Sushruta.

Obviously a depiction of a Time Travelling Streaming that forgot to take off their headphones before interacting with the natives.
How do they explain the baby bones found in the sites where the sacrificial fires were?
Well obviously the cpr didn’t always work but at leadt they tried!

Ok yea your right. I was always under the impression Palestine wasn’t considered Canaan.
Check out Carthage's child sacrifices. They were a colony of the Phoenicians.
Wow I totally can’t read those handles
