Summary

The talk follows the connection between Zeus, Dyaus, Indra, Jupiter and Thor through comparative linguistics and mythology.

The shared root is the Indo-European sky and thunder god, who dispersed into Greek, Roman, Norse and ancient Indian tradition.

The question raised: if Indra — Sakka in the Canon — attained stream-entry, what of Zeus, who may be the same deity down another line?

Key points

  1. One name travelling in different directions

    Dyaus and Zeus are linguistically the same word — evidence that does not rest on interpretation.

  2. The thunder god appears wherever the Indo-Europeans went

    That consistency makes it inheritance rather than coincidence.

  3. The stream-entry question is a thought experiment

    The Canon speaks of Sakka directly; extending it to Zeus is the speaker’s own extrapolation.

  4. Myth is evidence of population movement

    Matching gods can map a migration as well as artefacts can.
