Who is he PM of? He is PM of country that is defined by article-1, "India, that is Bharat".
& what is Bharat? it is the Civilizational State of which Kashi is pivot.
If you question PM @narendramodi taking part in it grandly, you certainly are also mocking the constitution makers who refrained from inserting "Secular"as they thought Bharat's culture has it by default.
So what was that culture that had inherited "Secularism" as oped by the Constitution Makers?
That culture was certainly the "Hindu Civilization" & agian it is article-1 which reinforces it.
"India, that is Bharat."
Of course, we all know what is the oldest root of "Bharat"? RigVeda! The Battle of Ten Kings.
We are the tribes of Bharat.
Had they been as sensitive as our today's secularist are why not even "Hindustan" but a name from Shastras?
1/n I had a fact check for @sumanthraman , couldn't respond for lack of time. Some clarity in this thread or his allegations that Marathas destroyed Shringeri.
He may respond should he have enough substance. @ShivaniGupta_5 tagging you as you were the anchor.
2/n This all story majorly got popularized after the mockery of History that BN Pande did. I'm sure @sumanthraman is aware whom I'm talking about. If not, I'll supply details for that too (check his paper AUrangzeb and Tipu Sultan)
Anyways let's bust your myth.
Read on.
3/n They were the Pindaris, mercenaries who had devastated Shringeri. They were freebooters.
In fact as per the primary sources Peshwa Madhawaro was badly anguished.
People want to compare Lakshmi Narsimha Swamy Temple, Yadadri with Kashi Vishwanath Corridor.
It is a futile & baseless effort.
The old pictures of both & history for past 5 centuries would tell people why I’m saying so.
It is also important to understand Mandir Architecture of different parts of north too has many variants, & to compare it with the style we know & are aware of is injustice to grandness of subject.
Hindus didn’t built only for grandeur but it was more about science, humility of spaces.
That’s the reason why although to many the Roman & Greek Architecture would look better but still smallest of Shikhar in Hampi has lot to offer as architecture brilliance.
Reason why Hindu Civilisation survived despite the places like Persia being islamised at so much ease?
It is because Persian Royalty accepted the Christianity of Lakhmids which was different from that Byzantine supported.
Persian King was quite happy that Lakhmids & Eastern Church had turned religious enemy of Byzantine on the matter of Jesus being seen as Human & not son of god.
Nestorians were on rise.
To supersede the Byzantines, the cross culture between Sassanids & Lakhmids led to arrival/ creation of Islam.
In no time the Persians became Muslims. All historical accounts support this.
It should be written as "Hindutva", not "Hindustava".
What is "your" minister? Get some sanity when you wish to deal with history.
Ambedkar saw "CONGRESS & GANDHI" as root supporter of Untouchability that is why wrote the book framing them & not RSS, HM or Savarkar.
Well @lovekeshchandra , yes Ambedkar chose to walk in "Buddha Panth" but his reason as political person were GANDHI & CONGRESS. They failed to do anything for Dalits, rather they intensified problems.
He put it openly in his book.
You keep blaming Hindutva & Savarkar @lovekeshchandra for untoucability. While Gandhi kept talking lofty he wanted a Dalit to remain Shudra by profession forever Savarkar was practically making things happen through intercaste dining, patitpawan mandir.
Interestingly, author Jha, claims in the article that Kathak & Khayal Gayaki were born in period of Amir Khusraw.
What a joke.
The roots of Kathak is found in "Natya Shastra". Even the conservative Marxist historians place this text 3-4 centuries before so called birth of Jesus
