A WA forward on what #YogiAdityanath has done for UP:
Last 5 years of UP:

Expressways started in 2008 when Mayawati started constructing Yamuna Expressway connecting Noida to Agra - It was her dream project of 166 KM. That’s UP for you 👏👏

then came Akhilesh Yadav who started Lucknow Metro and did 90% work on Agra - Lucknow expressway connecting Yamuna Expressway to Lucknow of 302 KM.

Then Starts Yogi era of UP and Now I will explain what Yogi-Modi accomplished in UP in 5 years
👉 Purvanchal Expressway connecting Lucknow to Ghazipur - 341 KM
👉 Bundelkhand Expressway connecting last part of Bundelkhand with Delhi - 296 KM It will open before Yogi's 1st term.

👉 Gorakhpur Expressway- 92 KM connecting Purvanchal Expressway with Gorakhpur, This too will open before Yogi ends his term in March.
👉 Delhi - Meruth Expressway - 73 KM
👉 Eastern Peripheral Expressway- 87KM
👉 Noida - Greater Noida Expressway - 25 KM

India is having a crisis. A resurge of pandemic. Made worse by all news channels creating nothing but panic. In the middle of it we have internal enemies. Internal Political enemies SuSu Swamy and his cronies.

Then anti-nationals from Congress, RJD, SP and company including DMK, Commies (of course), TRS, Jagan and TMC. These fellows only consideration is what is in it for me. They could not care two hoots for ordinary folks.

The next category - the 4th pillar of democracy. But the pillar is stinking because the so called watch dogs of democracy - have been pissing in the same place where they are standing. Includes @sardesairajdeep @GargiRawat @PrannoyRoyNDTV fluctuation @navikakumar and Co.

Then there is next breed called the twitter celebs - who blow hot and blow cold. One day they will be on this side, the next they will be fence sitting and out supporting the other side. Their only aim is to get likes, followers and RTs - in other words, Twitter TRPs.

Then we have folks who think they are Lord of all they purvey. Their own house is stinking with pending cases of over 4 decades where cases suffocate with no light or oxygen but are bothered about Govt. supplying oxygen,

A farmer separated the bulls and cows to prepare them for the mating season a few days later. He built a wall with barbed wires on top.

A young bull could not resist his temptations and wanted to mate a cow.

Other bulls told him there was one veteran consultant bull amongst them that could help...

The bull went to him and asked how to cross the wall to the cows..

The consultant explained: "First of all.. stand 60 feet away from the wall. Then run at 60mph. Then jump at a 60° angle. Do what you want then come back the same way..."

The bull asked: "But what if I mess up with the calculations and lose my BALLs in the barbed wires...?"

The consultant said: " Then you become a consultant..."

🙃 KITCHEN TIPS AND TRICKS!!😊 #cookingtips
From a friend who ran a catering business

1. If you happen to over-salt your gravy dish or soup, just drop in a peeled potato, and cook. The potato will absorb the excess salt.

Please share after reading!😉
Cheers.

2. When boiling eggs, add a pinch of salt to keep the shells from cracking.

3. Never put citrus fruits (Oranges, Lemons, limes) or tomatoes in the fridge. The low temperatures degrade its aroma and flavor - That's why our tomatoes don't last long!

4. To clean iron cook-ware, don’t use detergents. Just scrub them with salt and a clean, dry paper towel.

5. When storing empty airtight containers, throw in a pinch of salt to keep them from getting stinky.

6. When making a gravy (stew) you accidentally burn it, don't panic! Just pour it into a clean pan and continue cooking it. Add sugar, a little at a time, tasting as you go, to avoid 'over-sugaring' it. The sugar will cancel out the burned taste.

7. Burned a pot of rice? Just place a piece of white bread on top of the rice for 5-10 minutes to draw out the burned flavour. Be careful not to scrape the burnt rice off the bottom of the pan when serving.

Good morning. A Parenting Story

Every year Rohan's parents took him to his grandmother's house for the summer break, and they would return home on the same train the next day.

Then, one day Rohan asks his parents:

#SundayThoughts #SundayMotivation

′′ I'm pretty big now, What if, I went to grandma's house alone this year?"

After a brief discussion, parents agree.

Here, they are - standing on the train station, greeting him, giving him one last tip through the window, as Rohan continues to repeat:

′′ I know, you've already told me a hundred times...!"

The train is about to leave and his father whispers:

′′Son, if you suddenly feel bad or scared, this is for you! ′′

And he slips something into his pocket.

Now, the boy is alone, sitting on the train, without his parents, for the first time...

He looks at the scenery through the window that scrolls..

Around him strangers hustle, make noise, enter and exit the compartment, the controller comments him that he is alone..

A person even gives him a sad look...
So the boy is feeling more uncomfortable..

@ChenHuailun here. I'm adding a supplementary thread before today's scheduled one to expand on the origins and early history of the Church of the East (aka the Nestorian Church) ~ahc #jingjiao 1/

The Church of the East traces its origins to the christological position of the School of Antioch, which held that the human and divine and human essences (ουσία) of Christ were united in a single prosopon (πρόσωπον). ~ahc #jingjiao 2/

This ran against the position of the School of Alexandria, which held that the two essences of Christ were united in a single hypostasis (ὑπόστασις). In general terms, hypostasis is more inherent than prosopon. ~ahc #jingjiao 3/

One implication of the Antiochene rejection of the hypostatic union is that Mary could not accurately be called the Theotokos, or God-bearer. Instead, she is the Christotokos, the Christ-bearer. ~ahc #jingjiao 4/

These Christological debates were further complicated by Syriac terms such as 'kyana' (ܟܝܢܐ), associated with 'ousia' but later translated to 'hypostasis' by Syrian Orthodox; and 'qnoma ' (ܩܢܘܡܐ), sometimes contentiously translated as 'hypostasis' or 'person.' ~ahc #jingjiao 5/

Ever heard of a temple where the statue of the Goddess was found in a field in 1936 after spending almost a millenia under the soil?And is worshipped as the Tri-Sakthi-Swaroopini?
No?
I shall narrate the story of Nidadavole Kota Satthema temple in West Godavari district, Andhra

Nidadavole is a sleepy little town in the district of West Godavari, located a few kilometres from the Godavari. Among other things, it is famous for its Gramadevatha and Kshetrapalika, the Goddess Kota Satthema

In the tenth century, Nidadavole was known as Nirvadhyapuram, and was under the rule of the Eastern Chalukyas. They were nominal feudatories of the Kakatiyas of Warangal. The local Sthalapurana indicates that the original temple was built by one king called Virabhadra.

This Virabhadra has been identified as the husband and royal regent of the Kakatiya Empress, Rani Rudramadevi who ruled Central Deccan during the period. The original stone figure of the Goddess was built within a fort during his reign.

The goddess was worshipped as the Shakti of the Fort. Over time the name entered the vernacular parlance as Kota (the telugu word for Fort) and Satthema (a local vulgarisation of the word Shakti).

#SanathanaDharma

Dear Friends, a few points to share regarding the Varna Ashrama Dharma.

Vested interests take advantage of our lack of awareness of this particular Dharma and project it as discriminatory.

1

More often than not, our own people give defensive replies to the accusations.

For example, when someone says "Hinduism is the worst religion as it discriminates based on birth" many of us reply like say "Isn't it there in faith Y?" or "It's based on profession" & such.

2

Varnashrama Dharma cannot be interpreted in isolation i.e. one has to understand & accept (at least) what the following mean to understand it in full:

1. Paramathma & Jivathma Thathvam
2. Karma-based Jananam, life events & Maranam
3. Narakam, Swargam & Moksham

3

The primary purpose of everyone's birth is to get out of the cycle of birth-death so that we can eternally serve Bhagawan and His Adiyaars.

Where has it ever been said that only Archakas & Yagnyopaveethadhaaris can get Gnanam & reach Moksham?? All are most welcome!!

4

Every Jivathma has been through loads & loads of janmas and has taken loads & loads of Karmic shareerams.

So, one being a Brahmana or Shudra in this birth doesn't mean anything. The same Jiva could've been a tree / animal in previous birth or may become one in the next!!
