Dear @Mufti_Yasir īśvára is very much context based.
That is the reason why many see Shiva as īśvára while many see Vishnu as. You perhaps won't even get what the amalgamation of Nirgun & Sagun literally means.
You say that īśvára= Khuda. Hilarious.
Khuda comes from Zoroastrianism.
Refer to the 4th and 86th entry of the Pazend prayer titled 101 Names of God, "Harvesp-Khoda" "Lord of All" and Khudawand "Lord of the Universe", respectively.
Dear @Mufti_Yasir , you might not know but this autocratic (calling Ahuza Mazda as Khuda) thought of theology happened to be one major reason for the "RigVaidik battle of ten kings".
The losing tribes migrated NW. This migration was also from Monism to Monotheism.
That is the reason why the Avesta had abundant similarity with RigVedas and they saw their homeland in Sapt Sindhu (Hapt Hindhu).
So from next time @Mufti_Yasir get away with this ill idea of saying "Khuda"="Ishvara".

2/n We are told that Babylonians & Egyptians were the first to deal with "Elements of ancient Geometry."
Then I came across the interesting work of A Seidenberg, called "Ritual origin of Geometry." jstor.org/stable/41133224
He says: Egypt & Babylonia learnt it from Hindus.
3/n While Seidenberg gives very logical case that how it is armature attempt to think that Egyptians & Babylonians learnt elements of Geometry without Sulvasutras, we are also made aware about how the RigVaidik tribes had migrated out to latter influence to the rest of the world.
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.
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.
