Symbiotic Relationship between 2 is shown by Video Below- monks of RK Mission played Holi dancing in the style of Sri Chaitanya singing 16th Century songs

8. Sri Chaitanyadeb symbolized Hindu reaction to political subjugation (Muslim Rule)

It was time of Hussain Shah. Bathing in the Ganga & organizing Kirtan in public was prohibited

@SIANG16 @SanataniBharat @lobonkha @IamSourav_b @Sukanya0002 @porbotialora @ArunudoyB @Aban__Ind @sadharanindian @TheRedRiver1 @SujoyNMitra @PhoenixIndranil You did Mass Massacres of Hindu Bengalis Not Once But Repeatedly. Starting from 1960s to 2018 Tinsukia Massacre.

Is this your version of Love? Sorry Madam. This is scary. You felt that this amount of Killings is Insufficient

@SIANG16 @SanataniBharat @lobonkha @IamSourav_b @Sukanya0002 @porbotialora @ArunudoyB @Aban__Ind @sadharanindian @TheRedRiver1 @SujoyNMitra @PhoenixIndranil 5 Hindu Bengalis who were killed recently in Tinsukia were

1. Residents for 50 years
2. Spoke Fluent Assamese & had studied in Assamese Medium Schools

-Himanta Biswa Sarma, Finance Minister (Assam)

Assimilation of Local Culture Could Not Save them
Bengali Origin Played Culprit
@SIANG16 @SanataniBharat @lobonkha @IamSourav_b @Sukanya0002 @porbotialora @ArunudoyB @Aban__Ind @sadharanindian @TheRedRiver1 @SujoyNMitra @PhoenixIndranil Killings of 5 Dalit Hindu Bengalis near Tinsukia Assam was a clear case of Targeted Ethnic Hatred.

Eyewitnesses claim Nepalis were Let Off, Bengali Identities were confirmed and the killings happened

But you will give Excuse of Assimilation !!!

..and made Goa as their headquarters. And while they were at it, pretty much unchallenged, they even ruined the ancient Kapaleeswarar Temple to build a Church over it.
Their next target, the super profitable port of Mangalore.

Their only bad luck, just 14 kms south of Mangalore was the small settlement of Ullal - ruled then by a feisty 30 year old woman - RANI ABBAKKA CHOWTA.

As promised, here is my #thread on #Mastodon on popular demand.

I am trying my best to talk on layman language, avoiding too much of technical jargons, so that I can tell you what is this new social media service, how to join, choice of apps, etc.
First thing you should know that #mastodon is a decentralized social media platform.

That is the fundamental difference between of it from #twitter or #facebook.

A decentralized network, which means there is no central group with all of the power.

So here it is #fediverse
#mastodon isn’t just a website, it is a federation.

There are thousands, of small communities that live within the Mastodon system.

Each one is independent and unique, but they can all talk to one another.

These communities are called "INSTANCES".

Have you ever seen kids fighting over small things, like whose father is the best? Isn't it cute and stupid at the same time? Mature people know that every father has the same emotion and love for their own kids. Well, same thing goes for those who fight over Vishnu and Mahamaya.
In Bengal, Krishna and Kaali are often worshipped together, in the form of "Krishna-Kaali". Here is a picture of a Krishna-Kaali idol. Beautiful, isn't it?
Shakti upasana had always been a very important part of Bengal's culture. Durga pooja and Kaali pooja are still our most important festivals. (It's said that we Bengalies have 13 festivals in 12 months, i.e., "baaro maashe tero paarbon") But you've to remember that
