84: A Brief History of the Afterlife Five The Vedic Religion

In the final installment (for now) of our afterlife miniseries, we are considering the ancient Vedic Religion, the ancestor of modern Hinduism which arose in northwestern India in the second millennium BCE. We talk about the idea of being reincarnated in other realms (as opposed to in this world), and the different factors that might alter the realm in which one finds oneself. We also get into various hypotheses about where the Vedic religion came from, discussing the Indo-European peoples as well as the mysterious Indus Valley Civilization whose script remains as yet undeciphered. The episode opens with another one of Michael's afterlife hypotheticals, speaking of hypotheses. Next week we'll be back to covering the end of the world as we usually do. Theme music is from "After Life" by No Sky God. Send us Fan Mailhttps://www.instagram.com/theendoftheworldwms/https://youtube.com/@TheEndoftheWorldwMS?si=xmj-2e0s58JdN8-Bhttps://linktr.ee/endoftheworldwithmichaelandstu
