🕉️ From “Myth” to “Mastery”: Exposing the Western Agenda Behind Labeling Sanatan Dharma as Mythology
🔻 Introduction: When Truth Is Branded as Fiction
Across generations, the spiritual, cultural, and scientific treasures of Sanatan Dharma have been reduced to "mythology" by the West, a label they never dared apply to their own deeply flawed and historically questionable texts. This deliberate act is not an innocent academic classification, it’s a calculated intellectual attack, designed to diminish the ancient Indian civilization and elevate Western narratives as superior.

🔍 The Colonial Conspiracy: Labeling to Control
When British colonizers arrived in India, they didn’t just plunder wealth; they rewrote Indian history using their own yardsticks of time, reason, and religiosity. They translated ‘Itihasa’ (so it happened) into ‘mythology’, subtly suggesting that our epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana were nothing more than fairy tales.
This intellectual colonization was more dangerous than physical conquest, it reshaped the psyche of generations, making Indians doubt their own roots.
“They broke our temples, stole our idols & scripts, and then mocked us for being ignorant.” ~ Adarsh Singh
🌀 Cyclical Time vs Linear Dogma: A Misunderstood Framework
Sanatan Dharma doesn’t follow the Western idea of history, which moves in a straight line from "beginning" to "end." Instead, it revolves around Kalachakra, the eternal cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Western scholars, unfamiliar with this depth, mocked what they couldn’t grasp. Their ignorance led to dismissing profound concepts like avatars, yugas, and cosmic laws as "fiction." Ironically, the same West believed in burning bushes, talking snakes, and eternal damnation, yet never labeled their own texts as mythology.
“The West confused our metaphors with magic, and our mysticism with madness.” ~ Adarsh Singh
🛑 Selective Skepticism: Why Only Us?
Have you ever wondered why only non-Abrahamic cultures are subjected to the term “mythology”?
Why is the Bhagavad Gita a myth, but other desert-born doctrines considered sacred?
Why are flying chariots in India’s epics fictional, but walking on water elsewhere is “divine truth”?
Why is karma just a “concept,” but final judgment is a “belief”?
This is selective skepticism, the West applies reason only when it suits their narrative and suspends it entirely when evaluating their own scriptures.
“Rationality is a tool, but in the wrong hands, it becomes a weapon of cultural suppression.” ~ Adarsh Singh
📜 Scientific Blunders Ignored
The West’s own sacred texts once claimed the Earth was flat, the sun revolved around the Earth, and that creation took place in 6 days. These anti-scientific beliefs were protected under the umbrella of “faith,” not exposed as myths.
Meanwhile, ancient Indian texts contain astronomical calculations, advanced cosmology, references to the speed of light, gravity, and atomism, all predating modern science.
So, who’s mythological now?
“Calling our science ‘myth’ and their myth ‘science’, that’s the Western formula of domination.” ~ Adarsh Singh
🔓 Reclaiming the Narrative: It's Time We Rewrite the Labels
Today, more than ever, we need to reclaim our narratives:
Ramayana is not mythology. It’s historical Itihasa.
Mahabharata is not legend. It’s a civilizational memory.
The Vedas are not fantasies. They are the blueprints of universal laws.
Let us reject the colonizer’s dictionary and embrace our indigenous understanding of knowledge, time, and divinity. The truth of a civilization is not decided by invaders or their scholars, but by those who live its soul every day.
“You don’t need validation from the West to know your worth. You only need memory, courage, and clarity.” ~ Adarsh Singh
🔚 Myths are Lies Repeated. History is Truth Remembered
When the invaders arrived, they stole our gold and called it wealth. Then they stole our gods and called them myths. But the time has come to reverse this engineered amnesia. Our roots are not up for rebranding. Sanatan Dharma is not a myth. It is the eternal rhythm of existence: Cosmic, Scientific, and Spiritual.
“Truth doesn’t need footnotes. It needs fearless voices.” ~ Adarsh Singh
