What’s the connection between India and Judea?
As a Jewish person I have religiously read the Torah, followed Sabbath and whatever little things my parents have told me about. Growing up now, I feel fascinated towards Indian culture, The Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata, Ramayana and the Vedas. They seem to be happening in a parallel timeline. I saw a video of a Rabbi saying that Brahmanism (the practice of the priests being the head of the region providing the appropriate godly wisdom) comes from the name “Abraham”. A bunch of my Hindu friends are laughing at this connection. They believe in Brahma, Shiva & Vishnu. The creator, destroyer and the preserver. They believe in Avatars of Vishnu. I’m really confused about the Torah scrolls, their belief and science telling me that the earth is definitely older than 6000 years. What do I do?
EDIT: twice before I have been banned from Reddit. Regular ppl kindly help me.
