Nordic Elements within the Indo Aryan civilization

1)The austere type of the ancient atharvan, the "lord of fire" he who first opened the paths through sacrifices, as well as the type of brahmana, he who dominates the brahman and the gods through his formulas of power.

2)The doctrine of the Absolute Self (atman) of the early Upanisadic period, which corresponds to the impassible and luminous principle of the Samkhya.

3)The virile and conscious asceticism oriented to the Unconditioned that also characterized the Buddhist doctrine of awakening.

4)The doctrine of pure action and heroism expounded in the Bhagavad Gita which was credited with a solar origin and a regal heritage.

5)The Vedic view of the world as order and law

6)The patriarchal right, the cult of fire, the symbolically rich ritual of the cremation of the dead, the caste system, the cult of truth and honor, the myth of the universal sacred sovereign

In all these elements we find the traditional poles of "action" and "contemplation" closely intertwined and elevated to a higher meaning.
