#Thread #1/3 This news says Maheshwari community of Pune celebrated the wedding of Goda and Sri Ranganatha. They believe Goda was the daughter of sage Vishnuchitta who did penance to get married to Shri Ranganatha.
#2/3 This is the real story of Mother Andal, who was born as Kodai, the adopted daughter of Azhwar Vishnuchitta in Tamil Nadu. Andal is the composer of Thriuppavai and Nachiyar Thirumozhi, poems of extraordinary beauty. Andal is revered as an incarnation of Bhudevi in Tamil Nadu.
Two states, two communities, two languages, but one common legend and one common worship. The land called Bharatvarsha has always been united! In more ways than one.

#LongThread. Over the last few days, have realised that many people I know are battling loneliness and depression that I thought. The reasons are many, academic stress, work stress, bad boss, EMI problems, teenage kids being difficult, marriage not working out. The works.
One thing common is most cases is lack of a support system. Most people live in urban centres, in nuclear families, often commuting long hours. No time on weekdays to exercise, de-stress or even to talk to family members. Weekends are spent doing chores, or in mindless shopping.
Many don’t have siblings, or the bonds have withered by distance, old friendships are reduced to spending wishes on WA or sharing memes. Social media has taken the place of family togetherness. And that exaggerates the problem. Many are seeking professional help.

A thread on #AjantaCaves. This is the bicentennial year of the ‘rediscovery’ of the Ajanta caves by a British hunting party led by Capt John Smith, an army officer in 1819. You can still see his signature on a pillar in cave 10, reading "John Smith, 28th cavalry, 28 April 1819”.
#AjantaCaves are a group of 31 rock-cut Buddhist caves carved into a mountain in a rock face shaped like a horseshoe, abt 100 kms fm Aurangabad. The caves were carved out over a period of 600 years, starting a century before the common era and ending around 6th century CE.
#AjantaCaves complex consists of both Viharas, i.e cells for monks to reside as well as Chaityas, prayer halls. The earliest caves belong to the Hinayana tradition while the later caves follow the Mahayana tradition with the Buddha being worshipped in an iconic form as a Murti.

Today is #NationalHandloomDay. Handwoven textiles are the original #MakeInIndia product. The handloom sector employs the second largest no of people in India after agriculture, in weaving as well as in ancillary activities like dyeing, spinning, setting up the loom, starching etc
Every state in India has its own tradition of hand-woven textiles. The known history of Indian hand-woven textiles goes back to almost 5000 years, and many of the weaves are still continuing to be woven in an unbroken, living tradition. #NationalHandloomDay #HandloomTwitter
People from the Sindhu-Saraswati civilzation has mastered weaving weaving. A madder-dyed scrap of fabric found at Mohenjo-Dado proves that our people knew the art of growing cotton, spinning yarn, weaving cloth as well as dyeing yarn using natural colours. #NationalHandloomDay

This is not my tweet but perfectly reflects why NO ONE should vote @Conservatives if they believe in democracy.

Just to be clear, if you vote Tory or you avoid voting Labour because of Corbyn then read this.
Just to be clear, if you vote Tory or you avoid voting Labour because of Corbyn then read this.

"Can we all just take a moment here, take a breath, stop thinking about Brexit, and the NHS, and taxes, and student loans, and focus on what has actually happened in the last week?
Tories, led by an unelected PM, pretended to be a fact checking site in order to dupe the public into believing their lies.
They published inaccurate figures from the opposition's manifesto, before that manifesto even existed despite international pressure to stop doing so.

ASTRONOMICAL CALCULATIONS VERSUS NAKED EYE SIGHTING OF THE CRESCENT TO DETERMINE LUNAR MONTHS IN #ISLAM
I believe in naked eye sighting of the crescent in accordance to the sunnah of our beloved Prophet (ﷺ).The Prophet (ﷺ) said :
ﺻﻭﻣﻭﺍ ﻟﺮﺆﯾﺘﻪ ﻮ ﺍﻔﻄﺭﻮﺍ ﻟﺮﺆﯾﺘﻪ
Fast at its sighting, and break (end) the fast at its sighting. (Muslim)
ﻻ ﺘﺻﻭﻤﻭﺍ ﺤﺘﯽ ﺘﺭﻮﺍ ﺍﻟﻬﻼﻝ ﻮ ﻻ ﺘﻓﻃﺮﻮﺍ ﺤﺘﯽ ﺘﺭﻮﻩ
Do not fast until you sight the crescent and do not break (end) the fast until you sight it. (Buhari).
