In ancient times, Indian culture and civilization had a global propagation. This was not achieved by military invasions but by love and modesty. Indian history has been glorious from the beginning. On the basis of the remains found during excavation, it can be asserted that Indian culture pervaded the globe. 

Some of its examples are as follows.

1. Even today, on the northern gate of the Great Wall of China, there is an inscription in Sanskrit which says, “May God send Yakshas to defend us.”

2. Western historians and scientists have expressed their feelings about the superiority of Indian culture and history. Sir Walter Raleigh has written, “The first man on the earth was born on Indian soil.” Mayour, Colonel Ulkott, Voltair, Max – Muller etc. have expressed their views about ancient culture of India.

3. In Agnipurana India has been called as Jamboo – dweep. The Indian colonies across the sea were called Deepantar. They consisted of nine islands. The present Java, Sumatra, Malaya, Combodia, Siam, Champa, Burma and Srilanka etc. were on integral part of cultural India.

The European scholar Silven Levy has mentioned the word’Bhartiya group of Islands’. The Arabian geography scholar Masoodi has written that ancient India spread both on the land and the sea. Its boundary embraced Sumatra and Java. Thus, the then cultural India extended from Afghanistan toʻthe whole of South – East Asia.

The Indians reached Burma (Braham Desh), Siam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, Borneo, Philippines, Japan and as far as Korea and eastablished their political and cultural colonies. Such other Indian navigators and tourists reached from the pacific ocean to Mexico in Central America, Handuras, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and various other parts of South America and settled there.

The Aryans reached the vairous parts of the world by land and sea routes. There they preached the teachings of their religion and the principles of their culture.
