Hindu Media Watch
The Writer claiming to be a ‘rationalist' tries to suggest that Hindus are in the iron grip of ‘swamis, gurus, yogis, babas, acharyas, bhagwans, astrologers, palmists, numerologists and faith healers'.

But an analysis of the genes that Indians bear throws up enough evidence to rubbish that theory, pointing instead to a far more complex set of migrations-and perhaps reverse migrations-many millennia earlier than commonly supposed.
