Arya Samaj Exposed ( A Thread)

Today I'm going to expose these so called reviver of Sanatan dharma.

Arya samaj's main book which they treat as their bible is Satyarth Prakasha. Which was written by "Maharishi" Dayanand Saraswati.

Dayanand Condemned Idol worship and blamed it on jains . like really??

The book peddles hate against several Hindu sects.

here is hate against Vaishnavas

Hate against Shaivas. He even has problem with Bam Bam Boley 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Peppee poopooo Puranas bad ,
any person with common sense can understand the essence of Puranas.

even madhwas and lingyats are not spared

Really this much hatred against idol worship?

Ok no words on this

This so Called reviver of vedas didn't understand vedas himself look how he is trying to prove niyoga from vedas

Now let's talk about his followers.
Santosh Arya called Lord Shiva bhuton ka raja

Wait so Arya samaj ≠ Sanatan dharma?

kudos to @IndoctrinatedR for finding this

Many books were written by our Acharyas who countered each and every claim of Arya samaj.

Now before anyone here starts praising Arya samaj for this / that.

Lemme do that myself.

Rajiv Dixit ji who was also arya samaj influenced (just influenced and not a radical) said that original motive of Arya samaj was to PROTECT the cows

Besides we know about Swami Shraddhanand and i believe we should read books of Udayveer shastri ji .

Do i praise them for their contribution ? Yes

Do i believe that current Arya samaj is just a reformist cult rather than protector of cows and reviver of Vedas? Also Yes.

The Arya samaj we know today has outlived it's utility.

They reject all scriptures other than vedas and even for vedas only few samhitas are accepted.

For them
Ṛgvēda khilā is fake
Purāṇas are fake
Āgamas are fake
Uttarākhaṇḍa is fake
Śilpa śāstraṁ is fake
Smṛtis are fake
Certain Brahmaṇas are fake
Śaṅkarācārya pīṭhas are fake.
Don't even ask about other acaāryas
Gita is of 70 shlokas and 90 % of Mahabharata is fake

Conclusion : they should stick to their cocoon and stop larping as Hindu/sanatani, nothing better than desert cult..

Libtards accuse hindus for lack of charity , they ask us to give up our practices and donate to poor etc.

[ A Thread on charity in dharma]

"Why pouring milk or giving money to temples? give them to some needy na"

often we have heard these lines and upon continuing our practices we are accused of lack of charity and donations.

However what they don't know is that charity is NOT supposed to be a substitute of our practices

It supposed to be done on one's own will.

Our dharma has always valued it and encourages us for it but not under pressure .

as per parashara smriti charity is the highest virtue in kali yuga.

Maharana Sanga The Hindu Suraj
(A Thread)

Another Sisodiya jewel
ascended the throne in 1508.
Little did anyone knew that not only he was going to expand Mewar's influence but he was destined to be acknowledged as leader of Hindu India.

Very soon he started recovering lost territories of Mewar.

Maharana Sanga's kingdom was surrounded by 3 muzzie kingdoms .
Delhi , Malwa and Gujarat.
The only way left here was to wage wars and conquer new territories.

He was pretty much successful in all battles he fought against them.
He extended his kingdom and established new boundaries which were not dared for a long time.

Thread on debunking a claim that Maa Radha is fake/illusionary

One of the texts that mentions Maa radha is Garga Samhita ( A treatise written on Lord Krishna's life by sage Garg)

In this maa radha says that her darshan is rare

Garg Samhita Further mentions Rādhā-Krishna Vivah

Another interesting event from Garg Samhita 😁

Maharana Kumbha : The Unsung Rajput Warrior
(A Thread)

Born in the glorious line of Sisodiya Rajputs. He ascended the throne in 1433 and immediately started military operations.

In 1437 he defeated Sultan of Malwa and routed his entire army.
This was the most disgraceful defeat of khilji.

For a brief period of time he had some conflicts with Rao Jodha and captured Marwar. Completely placing it under his control.

However 7 yrs later Rao Jodha recovered from the loss of Marwar and made peace with Maharana.

A TINY THREAD ON NON-ACCEPTANCE OF ATHEISTS IN SOME HINDU HOLY BOOKS.

Many RW Hindus with confused identity think that Hinduism accepts Atheists.

What do some of the Hindu sacred texts say on this topic? Let's see.

Shri Krishna was 100% clear on importance of Shaastras as we already know.

Shri Rama was also clear on what should be done to atheists.

Maharaaj Manu on Atheists.

Bhagvan Ved Vyas Ji in Shanti Parva of Mahabharata said this to his son Shukadeva regarding Atheists.

Here is a special thread introducing our series on “The Making of the Islamic World.” It offers 10 episodes about the transformation of Islamicate societies between the 7th and 17th centuries. You can find the series page here: https://t.co/7mL9eWmMmz

This is Chris Gratien posting. I created this series during Fall 2020 for my students as asynchronous material supported by readings and discussion. This is going to be a long thread, but it will be a great shortcut for those looking to make similar use of these materials.

There are two items worth pointing out: 1. This is an overview of the political, social, and cultural history of Islamicate societies. It does not deal with the origins of Islam or many theological questions. It does discuss Islam’s spread and the transformation of Islamic law.

2. This is the first part of a two-part sequence that takes the history of the Islamic world into the present. It emphasizes developments and themes that have particular relevance for later periods.

This is really a multivocal narrative of Islamic history. We feature over 20 scholars from almost as many institutions. Many of those who worked on it, myself included, study the early modern and modern era but have teaching obligations that take us further back in history.

Rig Ved 1.36.7

To do a Namaskaar or bow before someone means that you are humble or without pride and ego. This means that we politely bow before you since you are better than me. Pranipaat(प्राणीपात) also means the same that we respect you without any vanity.

1/9

Surrendering False pride is Namaskaar. Even in devotion or bhakti we say the same thing. We want to convey to Ishwar that we have nothing to offer but we leave all our pride and offer you ourselves without any pride in our body. You destroy all our evil karma.

2/9

We bow before you so that you assimilate us and make us that capable. Destruction of our evils and surrender is Namaskaar. Therefore we pray same thing before and after any big rituals.

It has long been a custom in the Islamic world to compose collections of 40 Hadith (sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad) for believers to memorize. Thread for the the era of Covid.

The most famous perhaps that of the thirteenth century Shafi’i jurist al-Nawawi, which I use in teaching.

Collections of Prophetic traditions also exist for specific subjects or according to specific transmitters. And, separately, since the beginning of Covid, Muslim jurists the world over have been handing down legal opinions (fatwa/fatawa) on how best to respond.

Most recently, and the first such collection I have seen since the spread of Covid, the South African Shafi’i mufti Taha Karaan published a collection of hadith dealing with epidemics along with his own extensive comments.

The collection is fascinating for various reasons, both for the degree that it builds on premodern hadith commentaries and that which it presents a new synthesis of premodern views. If you’re interested in the premodern stuff, check out my book.

Thirumalai Murugan Kovil
#Panpoli
#TamilNaduTemples 🚩

Thirumalai Murugan Temple is located in Tenkasi district of Tamil Nadu. Muruga is worshipped as Thirumalai kumarasamy. Temple is situated near Kerala border and known to be where Shri Murugan gave darshan to Rishi Agasthiar

Devi is worshipped in the temple as Thirumalai Kaali amman

Sthala Puranam says that, there was a priest named Poovanbhattar of Thirumalai Kaali amman. Murugar appeared in a dream of the bhattar and said to find a Vigraham, lying in particular place which is of Thirumalaikumaran

Bhattar conveyed the news to the Pandalam Raja and they went to find out the vigraham. Surprisingly ants showed the way to find the Vigraham. Thus Murugan vigraham was found and Prathista was done here. There is a lake with pure water on the top of the hill

which is said to be created by Agasthiyar. It is believed that kannaki of
Chilapathikaram visited here before going to Kerala. Sapthamathrukkal also worshipped Murugan here. Kanthashashti Thiruvizha is very famous here.

Story of Thumba Poo and Shiva

Thumba poo is a tiny white flower which grows in all areas. These flowers are used for treatment for sinus. Small children who have polyps in Nose are told to crush tumbha leaves and apply in nose part.
There is an interesting story of Thumba and

Mahadeva. Thumba flowers were not taken for Shiva Pooja. Saddened to this Thumba prayed sincerely and Mahadeva appeared before her.
She was surprised that Shiva had appeared before her. Instead of saying that she wants to under his feet always, she said
@SriramKannan77

She said that her feet should be on his head. Shiva accepted her prayers. It is because of this Thumba flower is placed in the head of Shiva Linga.

This is my son, Sam. He’s 5. And today he learned how shitty and harmful #ToxicMasculinity is. My rage meter is spiking right now so excuse me if this is a little raw but there are some things I want to say about BS #gender norms (a thread)

Sam is my middle child & he’s a terror. A “boy’s boy” as so many (not me) would say. He’s rough and tumble, he’s loud, he’s always dirty, loves trucks, plays sports and knee drops me from the couch. But he also loves a lot of “girl” things.

Sam has a collection of purses because he likes to carry things around. And he also loves to have his nails painted bright colors because he thinks they “look beautiful.” And he’s right – they are beautiful…

So he proudly wore his red nail polish to kindergarten this morning because Sam has absolutely no concept of nail polish only being for girls or reason to think anyone would possibly have a problem with beautiful nails.

But his classmates did have a problem. A big one. Sam was ridiculed for being a boy with nail polish. They called him names and told him to take it off. This lasted the entire day.

1/ Here are my notes from @robertwrighter's book - Nonzero: the logic of human destiny. I enjoyed the book very much.

The basic premise of the book is that history has a direction which favors co-operation and non-zero sum games, and that causes an increase in complexity.

2/ Starting from the first replicating molecule which co-operated with an outer layer to form first proto-cell, evolutionary and cultural history is full of examples where two entities come together to survive and progress a lot more than they would have done individually.

3/ This co-operative entity fares much better than two individual entities because of specialization. If two entities are in the same boat - that they win together or lose together - then trust is implicit.

4/ In a non-zero sum game, trust causes entities to focus on what they do best.

For example, eukaryotic cells - the ones animals and plants have - emerged when two proto-cells merged, and one took the role of energy generator (mitochondria), the other specialized in protection.

5/ Some scientists believe that even nucleus in a cell is a result of an early cell merging with another cell.

So M&A is not a recent phenomena, entities have been merging because of common interests ever since life started.
