@swati_gs We read ur piece with interest, as we usually do & discussed it. We have criticisms of ur treatment of the topic, not the presented facts. Do we need to show that the Sadhus were Dube s or Tiwaris or non tribals in their Purbashram to argue they were Hindus? @maidros78 @dikgaj +
@swati_gs @maidros78 @dikgaj 1) Shanmukh checked Census. The tribe in question have themselves declared them as Hindus. Why do we need their Purbashram last names to show they were Hindus. Surely. Dube, Tiwari or any other last name arent any more or less Hindus than tribes declaring themselves as Hindus?+
@swati_gs @maidros78 @dikgaj 2) Next, the sect the Sadhus belonged to is an entirely Hindu sect. So, clearly the Sadhus are Hindus, even if they were Khans or Josephs in their Purbashram? Why are Purbashram names of the Sadhus relevant in the argument?
@swati_gs @maidros78 @dikgaj 3) If my understanding is right, all Sadhus do their own Shraddha before they take Sanyas, means they have relinquished their Earthly social existence, they are no longer what they were born as. So Purbashram is irrelevant again.
