Absolutely disgusted to see the manner in which Sadhvi Pragya Singh got heckled in parliament while taking oath today in Sanskrit. The moment she uttered her Sanyaasa name which includes the name of her Guru Poorna Chetnanda Avdheshananda Giri, all hell broke loose. (1)
Congress party members & others began screaming themselves hoarse to prevent Sadhvi from saying anything further. The Speaker joined hands with the clueless and said "Aapke pitaji ka naam boliye". Such ignorance about Sanyaasa! (2)
This highest body of lawmaking in the land of Bharatvarsha has no freaking clue about how Sanyaasis renounce their family ties, how in fact, they perform the last rites of their previous existence and ceremonially take on a new life with a new name when they embrace Sanyaasa! (3)
Such a deep insult of Sanatana Dharma right inside parliament. Never before has oath-taking been interrupted like this. It seemed like Asuras were sitting all around & throwing garbage on a yajna fire. This is the peak of ignorance in the Kali Yuga. (4)
Sanyaasis follow the lineage of gurus. Guru becomes the father after biological-family ties are renounced. Countless sadhus have followed this marga of detachment. Instead of honouring this tradition which gave so much knowledge to the world, it was ridiculed in parliament today!
