Are you prepared to be Dharmaveers like Shivaji, Pratap?
Wake before anyone else wakes
Train more than anyone else trains
Know Dharma more than anyone else knows
Live Dharma more than anyone lives
Veer, Tapasvi - for entire life
Dharma needs this more than any outrage
Its easy to tweet, retweet, like, trend hashtag. But that won't stop the mob on street
What would is a commitment to transform mana, buddhi, shareer, aatma into Brahmaastra through nirantar abhyaas. To let go of every distraction and dedicate life to prepare and perform
It is also easy to admire Shivaji & Pratap. But what is needed is to follow the gruelling shiksha they forced themselves into to be masters of mind, body, strategy, teamwork
Their greatness is not in what they achieved. But in level of tapasya they did to deserve that achievement
Not just Shivaji, Pratap. We had a parampara of tapasvis in all domains whose sadhana prevented Bharat from becoming Syria despite massive internal/external odds
Now we have become too soft, too mushy, too aalasi, too addicted to pleasures to be of any good than weep victimhood
We overhype importance of our vote or retweet or like or social media posts. If this be the price we pay, we are bound to face what we face.
Time to raise the stakes, and emulate the heroes we worship. No pain, no gain. No hard work, no success. No tapasya, no Dharma

My personal Dharmik belief system: 1. Like all major scriptures, I consider Veda Samhitas to be eternal knowledge of Eeshwar. Every other source of knowledge is acceptable to extent it syncs with Vedas
2. To interpret Vedas, I adopt the Nyaya Darshan method of 8 Pramana
+
3. Every way of worship is acceptable so far it doesn't contradict core Vedic principles like equal Dharmik opportunities for all. Hence I totally reject the anti-Vedic ecosystem that decides on right to Vedas and Janeu based on birth
+
4. Access to Vedas depend only on intent and capability, not on birth or gender.
5. Jaati by birth is a modern social concept and has nothing to do with Vedic Sanatan Dharma
"A Dwija (educated) who puts efforts elsewhere and not in pursuit of Vedas becomes a Shudra (uneducated) along with his future generations" (original Manu Smriti 2.168)
Manu Smriti is demonised because casteists, British etc inserted spurious verses in original Manu Smriti that contradict other verses as well as Vedas - source of Dharma
Due to this a distorted version of Hinduism cropped up that has rendered us incapable of countering invaders
Such is the horrible situation that you won't find any mention of birth-based hundreds of Jaatis today. But when Ghar Wapsi has to happen, it is countered by asking "In which Jaati will person go"!
Since we pursue Adharma in form of Jaativaad, we face consequences
36 Questions for Missionaries from Swami Shraddhanand
(Swamiji made Shuddhi (aka Ghar Wapsi) a mass movement and hence was murdered in 1926). He is role model for @agniveer
1. Is it true that original Bible nor original gospels by Jesus's disciples are nowhere to be found? +
2. Is it true that current Bible is translation of some manuscripts in Hebrew and other old languages?
3. Is there any evidence in these gospels that Jesus wanted to establish a new religion?
4. How do we falsify the claim that current Christianity is established by St Paul? +
5. Can you prove that St Paul ever met Jesus, or heard his sermons, or listened to any of his talks?
6. Is it not true that Mary was wife of a carpenter named Joseph?
7. Is it not true that Jesus was born after marriage of Joseph with Mary? +
Acharya Pandit Sudarshan Dev who has written most comprehensive commentary on Yajurveda and Panini Ashtadhyayi hailed from a Dalit samaj. His books are used in prestigious Gurukuls and also form basis of my Veda Swadhyaya. Was respected for his expertise in Vedic Yajna. +
Remove your lenses. Caste discrimination is a society wide problem and affects even Dalit communities.
Among Brahmin samaj have come legends like Dayanand, Savarkar whose life was dedicated to destroy this evil. Ambedkar got his name from someone from Brahmin samaj.
Blame bigots and not entire samaj. Also blame those fraud Dalit groups who create disharmony, and never work to eradicate casteism within Dalit Samaj. Due to whom, even after reservations, benefits don't reach all Dalits but only few privileged ones.
