Why we need new Hindu Temple Act -

📍Let’s take the case of Tarakeswara temple.
Do you know who decides who will head the Tarakeswar Temple Trust? The District Judge. The temple committee includes the District Magistrate, and a few political leaders.

However, the same district has the Furfura Sharif and Bandel Church. Who appoints the heads there? Does the District Judge have any authority in these two cases ? The answer is a definite NO.

📍But why does Tarakeswar have a separate law?

In 1817, the British government brought a bill in the Madras Presidency to loot Hindu temples. Over the next 100 years, they introduced several laws to strengthen this control. To Continue with this loot, post -independence, Nehru passed the ‘Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Act,’ 1951. When the Madras High Court and the Supreme Court declared this Act unconstitutional, Nehru brought an even stringent law in 1959. The control and looting increased further.

In 2012, Swami Dayananda Saraswati and Swami Paramatmananda filed a case in the Supreme Court regarding this issue. That case remains unresolved even today.

📍What we now need is a new Hindu Temples Act. Government looting MUST stop. Even if that requires a constitutional amendment. If Al-Ameen Mission can independently run JEE/NEET coaching, why can’t Tarakeswar or Dakshineswar temples do the same? If Christian medical colleges can run hospitals in Vellore, why can’t we? Why does Ramakrishna Mission have to beg for minority status? Why must they be buried under layers of government red tape?

It is time for us to reflect. There’s a lot of work for us Hindus to do.

[ ✍️ Sudipta Guha in Bengali. I have translated it keeping the essence as much as I could ]

📍I will just add a bit about RKM and why it was forced to declare itself a minority organisation - the CPIM government after coming to power initially would try to control it, failing which, it forcibly shut down Rahora Ramkrishna Mission for 11 months to teach them a lesson.
After this, RKM was forced to ask for the status of a minority organisation in order to function.

Of course did CPIM dare to do this with any Islamic organisation ? We all know the answer.

📍Along with a new Hindu Temple Act, we also need to remove the Article 30, 30 A.

To my followers: do repost if you can see it. Again from yesterday X has started putting a shadow ban on my posts. Yesterday a post had just 200 reach in 2 hours, obviously making my posts invisible to my followers.

It now seems the Harappan culture was not the start of Indian civilisation, but just another dot in our long story of human civilisation.

New studies have revealed that humans lived in Gujarat's Kutch area over 12,000 years ago, predating the Harappan culture by 5000 years. These people ate molluscs found in the region’s mangrove forests, and used a variety of stone tools to hunt.

This new discovery suggests that instead of any sudden external influence, there has been a gradual, locally rooted process of adaptation and cultural development in human civilisation in the Indian subcontinent.

‘The accumulated knowledge of local geology, water resources, and navigation of these pre-historic humans may have later helped the Harappans plan their settlements more effectively and engage in long-distance trade.’

So now we push back our civilisational timeline to 12000 years from BP, leaving behind the SSVC.

Personally I think, even earlier, around 40-50,000 years back, India likely had one of the largest Homo sapiens population (beyond Africa), and this is supported by various evidences (climatic and archaeological). While much of the northern parts of Europe and Asia remained uninhabitable during Ice Age; the Indian subcontinent had mild climate, innumerable rivers, fertile valleys, and coastal areas. With plenty of water sources, unlimited food, and safe shelters, early humans would have thrived here.

Archaeological evidences from sites like Jwalapuram, Attirampakkam, and the Narmada Valley, suggest continued human habitation from antiquity. India also likely served as a main point for human migration into Southeast Asia and Oceania.

So it can be said that India was a key center in the history of early human habitation, especially during the revolutionary time when Homo sapiens undertook global dispersal.

Why is Islam and beef synonymous in the Indian subcontinent, despite cows not being plenty in Saudi Arabia ?

🧵 1/4…
Almost 98% Indian subcontinent Muslims are converted from Hinduism/Buddhism/Jainism at some point of time in history after the invasions started. They were converted forcibly, by being force-fed beef in many cases.

Yet today Beef is synonymous with Islam here. In fact, after marrying into a Muslim family, often the first thing done after conversion to Islam, is being fed beef. This eating beef is an essential step in conversions of Hindus to Islam in the Indian subcontinent, and elsewhere.
…

2/4

In Saudi Arabia, the main livestock consists of Sheep (63%), Goat (30%), Camel (5%) and Cattle (2%).
These figures are despite a huge push in Saudi Arabia's cattle and dairy industry in recent times.
Yet when the foreign Muslim invaders came to India, they suddenly started considering cow as an important part of their diet. The invaders who were used to eating goat and sheep meat, (remember Bakr-i-Eid), suddenly became voracious proponents of cow meat. Why?
The answer lies in Islamic invaders' need to not just forcefully subjugate the Hindus but also to humiliate them. They realised they can achieve this by widespread Destruction of temples and Cow Slaughter. That is how Beef was first connected with Islam.

3/4

The Islamic invaders realized early during their conquests that Cow was considered sacred by Hindus. So to attack the Hindu religious system, cow slaughter and public beef eating became a process to humiliate the Hindus after a defeat, and also to attack the very basis of their socio-religious foundations.
Moinuddin Chisti of Ajmer, who was part of Sultan Muhammad Ghauri's war against Prithviraj Chauhan, had his followers bring a cow daily to a temple in Ajmer, slaughter it and cook kebabs, to humiliate the local Hindus.

This false claim that the term Hindus was coined by the Arabs in the 8th century CE, was a fertile imagination of Romila Thapar and D.N. Jha. They however did not explain the basis of their conclusion, nor did they cite any evidences in the support of their claims. Even Arab Muslim writers did not make such claims.

Another popular theory among these category of writers is that the word Hindu is a Persian corruption of Sindhu, resulting from the Persian practice of replacing S with H. Even this theory has no supporting evidences. In fact the word Persia itself contains S which should have become Perhia, if this theory was correct.

📍Epigraphic Evidence of the term Hindu prior to 8th century CE -

The Hamadan, Persepolis and Nagsh-I-Rustam Inscriptions of Persian king Darius, mention certain people Hindu, as included in his empire. These inscriptions are dated between 20-485 BCE. This establishes that the term Hi (n) du was in use more than 500 years before the Common Era.

📍Hind and its derivative forms are used more than 70 times in Ashokan inscriptions. For instance in the Jaugadha, separate rock edict II, the lines 3 & 4, read-
“All men are my people. I desire for my people that they may be provided with all welfare and happiness. I desire for my people, including the people of Hind and beyond and I desire for all men.”

The Edict further, says in lines 7 & 8 - “Dhamma may be followed and the people of Hind and beyond may be served.” The Ashokan inscriptions establish the antiquity of the name Hind for India to at least third century B.C.E.

📍Evidence from Pahlvi Avesta:

In the Avesta, Hapta-Hindu is used for Sanskrit Sapta-Sindhu, the Avesta being dated variously between 5000-1000 B.C.E. This again indicates that the term Hindul is as old as the word Sindhu. Sindhu is a Vedic term used in the Rigeda. And therefore, the term Hindu is as ancient as the Rigveda.
In the Avestan Gatha Shatir, 163rd Verse speaks of the visit of Veda Vyas to the court of Gustashp and in the presence of Zorashtra, Veda Vyas introduces himself saying [man marde am Hind jijad. (I am man born in Hind).

No way is the word Hindu Arabic in origin!
It’s an absolute lie or distortion of facts, whichever way one wants to see it!

📍The Greek term Indoi is a softened form of Hindu, where the initial H was dropped as the Greek alphabet has no aspirate. This term Indoi was used in Greek literature by Hekataeus (late 6th century BCE) and Herodotus (early 5th century BCE), thus establishing that the Greeks were using this derivative of Hindu as early as 6th century BCE.

📍The Hebrew Bible uses Hodul for India , which is a Judaic form of Hindu. The Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) is considered earlier than 300 BCE. Today the Hebrew spoken in Israel also uses Hodu for India.

📍The Chinese used the term Hien-tu for Hindu about 100 BCE; While describing movements of the Sai-Wang (100 BCE). The Chinese annals state that the Sai-Wang went towards the South and passing Hien-tu reached Ki-Pin.
Later Chinese travellers Fa-Hien (5th century CE), and Huen-Isang (7th century CE) use a slightly modified term Yintu , but the affinity to Hindu is still retained. This term Yintul continues to be used till today.

I Have often seen Leftists and mlecchas mocking Sri Krishna about His 16108 ‘gopinis.’

Here is the story of what really took place.
1/6 🧵….

The story is from Dwapara Yuga -

A cruel asura name Narakasura had kidnapped sixteen thousand girls. His cruelty was so well known that everyone trembled at his very name.

The gods were helpless against this asura. The asura had a boon that he would not die at the hands of anyone, except his mother.

This was a strange gift of immortality. Can a mother be a son-killer?
….

2/6

With the thought of saving the girls, many kings, rishis, and gods went to Dwarka to seek help from Sri Krishna.

As they narrated, Vasudeva listened to everything with a calm and smiling face, but said nothing. Something of a smirk even appeared on His face. Seeing this smirk Indra deva lost his patience, and he spoke up sharply and sarcastically. Hearing the sarcasm, Dwarkadhish's smile vanished for a moment, and Indra had a vision reminding him of how as Gopala, Krishna had crushed Indra’s pride by carrying the Govardhan hill.

As Indra restrained his anger, suddenly the queen of Dwarka, Satyabhama, entered the assembly hall. She had heard all about the torture and pain of the 16108 girls and was red with anger. It was then the queen of Dwarka promised to fight Narakasura.

3/6

At this promise the face of Dwarkadhish filled with humor. It was His initial indifference that had led to Indra’s open outburst in the court, owing to which Satyabhama came to know everything about the cruel asura.

This Narakasura was the son of Varahdeva and Bhudevi. After receiving a boon from Mahadeva through hard penance, he had become a powerful tyrant.

It was impossible for Narakasura to die at the hands of anyone, other than Bhudevi.

Sri Krishna knew that this war was not His, or anyone else’s war. This war belonged to Bhudevi, who had incarnated in the form of Satyabhama. Therefore, he tactfully instigated His wife, and convinced her to join the war of her own free will.

Mother of Frauds - as 🧵 1/6

"Turns out she (Mother Teresa) was a child trafficker, selling babies and funnelling between $50-100 million/year to the Vatican. Mother Teresa's connections include Baby Doc Duvalier, the Haitian dictator, Saving's and Loan criminal Charles Keating, and Robert Maxwell (the father of Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking partner, Ghislaine Maxwell).

And here's the kicker! Mother Teresa opened the D.C. based Home for Infant Children with none other than Hillary Clinton. This orphanage of sorts was quietly closed in 2012."

MT's Christianity was based on an obsession with suffering and death and that influenced her 'care giving' work. She saw the struggles of those in poverty as admirable, and believed that it brought them closer to God. She likened their suffering to Christ on the cross and encouraged and practiced it within her 'hospitals' and 'orphanages'
Doctors who visited her institutions were shocked at their terrible conditions. Medical care was administered by volunteers who had no medical training, hygiene was almost non-existent, needles were reused until they became blunt, pain management was non-existent, and the caregiving staff were not able to differentiate between those who were dying, and those who had curable illnesses.

Mother Teresa's caregiving meant building a ‘home for the dying', where "people who lived like animals" could come to “die like angels.”

She told those in pain that they were being “kissed by Jesus"; yet on her own deathbed she preferred to accept the very best medical care being offered to her.
One reporter who went undercover in one of her Kolkata homes described the conditions as “squalid” with nothing on the walls but pictures of the “mother” and attendants that laughed at children who had soiled themselves after being tied to beds all day. There was no dignity in the supposed care of these white-robed nuns.
