Adalaj "Wow" - Symbol of Great Indian Sacrifice.

@ReclaimTemples @punarutthana @LostTemple7
For the water problems of his people, Rana Veer Singh started this Stepwell construction in 1498.

In 1499, before it's completion, Mohammed Begda invaded & killed Rana Veer.
His beautiful Queen Rani Roopba (RudaBhai) didn't choose Jauhar, rather agreed marriage proposal from Begda on one Condition - "He should complete building of stepwell". Begda, in deep love with beauty of Rani readily accepted & completed it.
On achieving her objective of providing water to her people Rani decided not to submit to Begda but to end her life by jumping in to the same stepwell.

Each architectural detail of this well speaks of her Valor.

"Jai Bharat - Jai RudaBhai"

Let's identify Agni.

Agni is important Vedic god & one of Panchabhootas. He is also the guardian of Agneya (SouthEast) direction. Usually found in South East corner of Hindu temples.

People often mistake/confuse between Brahma & Agni.

Iconography of Agni as per Agamas is as follows:

1. Large Belly coz consumes everything offered to flames.

2. Sharp Moustache & beard
3. Vehicle is Ajha (RAM - Male goat)

4. Consort - Swaaha

5. Holds Akshamala, Kamandala, Flames and Spoon for offering Ghee during Yagya.

Story of "Kirti Mukha", a motif found frequently in Door frames, Temple Towers, Frames of God's & Goddesses, in Decorative elements. (Kirti Mukha is different from Simha Mukha)

As per Skanda Purana, King Jalandhara, after acquiring immense power challenges Shiva to give Parvati. Angered Shiva creates a lion faced monster out of his 3rd eye to eat away Jalandhara. Realising the mistake Jalandhara pleads & Shiva forgives.
The Monster asks Shiva - "Now whom shall I eat". Shiva responds in lighter mood saying "Eat Yourself". Immediately monster starts consuming itself from feet & only when face remained, Shiva notices, appreciates the devotion and names the monster "Kirti Mukha" (the Face of Glory)

#ReclaimTemples #Autonomous2HinduTemples
#HRCE law section10
Only practicing #HINDUS must be employed in temples under it.
At the time of joining, all the HRCE employees including the commissioner, must sign an undertaking professing faith in Hinduisim
Is this being followed ?
As expected & most unfortunately ,the answer is a BIG NO! 😠
This #RTI reveals that #HRCE doesn't have any records of anyone joining the dept taking the stipulated undertaking!
Violation of law
Also gives raise to the doubt how many nonHindus used this laxity & entered temple.
Secular constitution of India guarantees the right to citizens to govern their own religious institutions
Churches governed by Christians
Dargahs governed by Muslims
But Only Hindu Temples have been penetrated by non hindus.
Shame on the secularism of this country.
Must end!

Reading the Mueller report here's what we know: an awful lot of stuff around Natalia Veselnitskaya & Rinat Akhmetshin, the two Russian Fusion GPS-affiliated lobbyists at the June 9 2016 Trump Tower meeting is redacted.
And the redactions are GRAND JURY RELATED.
Both Veselnitskaya and Akhmetshin have redactions after they are described as 'lawyer' and 'lobbyist'.

So, the past few weeks has seen a growing public awareness in the UK of how the far-right, especially the religious far-right, in the US likes to operate, and likes to use willing, if witless, pawns to do their bidding.

The name that's been making the headlines recently...

1/n
is The #Heritage #Foundation. But what, exactly, does The Heritage Foundation espouse? What is it's driving ideological foci?

And the answer to that, if you care one iota for women, or for LGBTQI+ people, is grim to say the least.

This is an organisation that states:

On SOGI (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Laws):

"SOGI laws are about forcing all Americans to embrace—and live out—certain beliefs about human sexuality. They are not about protecting the freedom of people to live as LGBT, but about coercing everyone else to...

We need to build these institutions to evolve parallel ecosystem with our own resources to safeguard Hindus,Temples,Education,Legal,Health,Demography &finally defeat these evil forces. We cannot afford to wait any longer as our enemies are much ahead in the race to eliminate us.
We also request @BJP4India to bringout white papers on #ReclaimTemples #Punarutthana #FreeTemples census in all your governing states including their audit reports. We need 100s of TTDs & can administer on our own. We no need to wait for any constitutional change/RS numbers

#b Excellence is overrated, competence is underrated.
Competence is knowing what to do in a situation and how to do it. It is not the same as excellence.
Excellence is dependent on other people, like judges, examiners, teachers, assessors, inspectors, auditors. But we can't control these people and whether they think we're excellent or not.
