Thousands of years ago, a great row of Aryans crossed over the Himalayas and, going toward the North of present India, established there their abode.
They were under the guide of the Manu Vaivasvata, a Solar Initiate of First Rank, and ten wise men called Rishis; their names are respectively: Marishi, Atri, Pulastya, Pulaka, Angryas, Kardama, Daksha, Vashishia, Bhrigu and Narada.
After fighting during 1,500 years, the Aryans that migrated to Central Asia handed down the Revelation and Tradition of a splendid Religion to their descendants; millenary Vedas conveyed this religion. Vedas, which means “pure science”, are a series of hymns and chants that those ancient people usually offered to their gods; in the beginning, they did not write down these hymns, but conveyed them orally from generation to generation.
Aryan established all their religions, philosophies, laws, letter and arts on Vedas.
The Upanishads and Sutras, which are moral and philosophy of Hinduism, are vast commentaries on early texts based on their religion.
The terrestrial element, Prithivi, creates elementals as guardians and caretakers of terrestrial movements, growth of trees, vegetation, and reserve of lands that the man should not contaminate. For an old legend, these beings are short, long-bearded and grotesque; according to tales and mysteries arisen from fantasy of the people, they have been called dwarfs, goblins, gnomes, et cetera.
