Andite Expansion in the Orient

79:2.1In­dia is the only lo­cal­ity where all the Uran­tia races were blended, the And­ite in­va­sion adding the last stock. In the high­lands north­west of In­dia the San­gik races came into ex­is­tence, and with­out ex­cep­tion mem­bers of each pen­e­trated the sub­con­ti­nent of In­dia in their early days, leav­ing be­hind them the most het­ero­ge­neous race mix­ture ever to ex­ist on Uran­tia. An­cient In­dia acted as a catch basin for the mi­grat­ing races. The base of the penin­sula was for­merly some­what nar­rower than now, much of the deltas of the Ganges and In­dus be­ing the work of the last fifty thou­sand years.

79:2.2The ear­li­est race mix­tures in In­dia were a blend­ing of the mi­grat­ing red and yel­low races with the abo­rig­i­nal An­don­ites. This group was later weak­ened by ab­sorb­ing the greater por­tion of the ex­tinct east­ern green peo­ples as well as large num­bers of the or­ange race, was slightly im­proved through lim­ited ad­mix­ture with the blue man, but suf­fered ex­ceed­ingly through as­sim­i­la­tion of large num­bers of the in­digo race. But the so-called abo­rig­ines of In­dia are hardly rep­re­sen­ta­tive of these early peo­ple; they are rather the most in­fe­rior south­ern and east­ern fringe, which was never fully ab­sorbed by ei­ther the early And­ites or their later ap­pear­ing Aryan cousins.

79:2.3By 20,000 B.C. the pop­u­la­tion of west­ern In­dia had al­ready be­come tinged with the Adamic blood, and never in the his­tory of Uran­tia did any one peo­ple com­bine so many dif­fer­ent races. But it was un­for­tu­nate that the sec­ondary San­gik strains pre­dom­i­nated, and it was a real calamity that both the blue and the red man were so largely miss­ing from this racial melt­ing pot of long ago; more of the pri­mary San­gik strains would have con­tributed very much to­ward the en­hance­ment of what might have been an even greater civ­i­liza­tion. As it de­vel­oped, the red man was de­stroy­ing him­self in the Amer­i­cas, the blue man was dis­port­ing him­self in Eu­rope, and the early de­scen­dants of Adam (and most of the later ones) ex­hib­ited lit­tle de­sire to ad­mix with the darker col­ored peo­ples, whether in In­dia, Africa, or else­where.

79:2.4About 15,000 B.C. in­creas­ing pop­u­la­tion pres­sure through­out Tur­kes­tan and Iran oc­ca­sioned the first re­ally ex­ten­sive And­ite move­ment to­ward In­dia. For over fif­teen cen­turies these su­pe­rior peo­ples poured in through the high­lands of Baluchis­tan, spread­ing out over the val­leys of the In­dus and Ganges and slowly mov­ing south­ward into the Dec­can. This And­ite pres­sure from the north­west drove many of the south­ern and east­ern in­fe­ri­ors into Burma and south­ern China but not suf­fi­ciently to save the in­vaders from racial oblit­er­a­tion.

79:2.5The fail­ure of In­dia to achieve the hege­mony of Eura­sia was largely a mat­ter of to­pog­ra­phy; pop­u­la­tion pres­sure from the north only crowded the ma­jor­ity of the peo­ple south­ward into the de­creas­ing ter­ri­tory of the Dec­can, sur­rounded on all sides by the sea. Had there been ad­ja­cent lands for em­i­gra­tion, then would the in­fe­ri­ors have been crowded out in all di­rec­tions, and the su­pe­rior stocks would have achieved a higher civ­i­liza­tion.

79:2.6As it was, these ear­lier And­ite con­querors made a des­per­ate at­tempt to pre­serve their iden­tity and stem the tide of racial en­gulf­ment by the es­tab­lish­ment of rigid re­stric­tions re­gard­ing in­ter­mar­riage. Nonethe­less, the And­ites had be­come sub­merged by 10,000 B.C., but the whole mass of the peo­ple had been markedly im­proved by this ab­sorp­tion.

79:2.7Race mix­ture is al­ways ad­van­ta­geous in that it fa­vors ver­sa­til­ity of cul­ture and makes for a pro­gres­sive civ­i­liza­tion, but if the in­fe­rior el­e­ments of racial stocks pre­dom­i­nate, such achieve­ments will be short-lived. A poly­glot cul­ture can be pre­served only if the su­pe­rior stocks re­pro­duce them­selves in a safe mar­gin over the in­fe­rior. Un­re­strained mul­ti­pli­ca­tion of in­fe­ri­ors, with de­creas­ing re­pro­duc­tion of su­pe­ri­ors, is un­fail­ingly sui­ci­dal of cul­tural civ­i­liza­tion.

79:2.8Had the And­ite con­querors been in num­bers three times what they were, or had they driven out or de­stroyed the least de­sir­able third of the mixed or­ange-green-in­digo in­hab­i­tants, then would In­dia have be­come one of the world’s lead­ing cen­ters of cul­tural civ­i­liza­tion and un­doubt­edly would have at­tracted more of the later waves of Mes­o­po­ta­mi­ans that flowed into Tur­kes­tan and thence north­ward to Eu­rope.
