"Idol Worship" - #MurtiPuja - Hindus worship murtis as living embodiment of SupremeBeing. It helps keep focus. They chose a form closest to their inclination. - Krishna for fun loving, Ram for firmness in human values, Durga for divine powerful mother, Buddha for meditative 1/n
#Shivling is the closest to niraakaar or formless Supreme Being, the source of all the power of the universe. It is a symbol of that infinite energy. Read why nuclear reactors are formed like Shivling, because only this shape withstands that level of energy 2/n
Those who ONLY believe in formless God too end up worshiping some form of the representation of the SupremeBeing - Buddha and Mahavir said no to murti puja, so their followers ended up worshipping their idols. Christians ended up with Cross on their altars, Muslims at Kaba 3/n
Abrahamics said God created Man in 'His' own image but human is full of imperfections. Hindus created God in their own image, knowing God is formless and they needed a form to focus on Him/Her/It. 4/n

Was on @themojostory just now. Almost guffawed when a participant repeated the Nehruvian “Discovery of India” argument that we all Indians are outsiders and migrated at different times. Some like ‘Aryans’ came earlier some like Mughals came later, so no big deal. 😁
To top it, he quotes Tony - journalist turned genealogist and DNA expert promoted by progressive camp to challenge scientific studies of Deccan College, Harvard et al that clearly state that all Indians have same DNA till they could go, around 30000-40000 years. But, who cares?😂
3. Then, we had an eminent historian who claimed that conversions were mostly voluntary during Mughals - first SC then high caste. Heard such normalisation of violent conversions after a long time. Even Muslims historians would be turning in graves.

I have come out benumbed watching #TheKashmirFiles. @AnupamPKher has lived the role and breaks your heart. #PallaviJoshi brings alive a character she doesn't believe in. Young #DarshanKumar brings out the pain & angst of Kashmiri youth. Mithun da, Belawadi, Puneet all 👏👏👏1/3
.@vivekagnihotri presents the truth as is, unwarnished, well researched. Pithy dialogues. "Sarkar unki hai, system toh hamara hai", Pallavi tells the confused young Kashmiri. 2/3
I have researched and worked for justice to #KashmiriHindus since 2003 or so. Debates, articles, book. Have been sad, tense, angry. But nothing prepares you for watching what you know come alive.
Some scenes break you, devastate you. Thanks Vivek Pallavi 4 the courage. 🙏💐3/3

Since last few days there has been a concerted effort by a few Hindutva warriors to besmirch #RSS reputation with incomplete or false news no evidence. I do not know the purpose. But, it confuses people who don’t know enough or read enough. 1/n
Yesterday a news was shared claiming RSS disowning a book by Shri Guruji in 2006. I comprehensively proved that Guruji himself had disowned the book in 1950s with reference.2/n
Today a thread in twitter claims that certain people with #RSS connections are planning deletion or modification of #Hindu scriptures. In its 96 year history, there is NOT ONE evidence of RSS having ever asked for modification of any holy scripture. Even #VHP hasn’t done it. 3/n

This article has so many huge logical holes that one could walk through them. I thank @SudheenKulkarni for sharing his thoughts. This needs an article. Some pets
As China’s Communist Party turns 100, Indian leaders would do well to learn from its success scroll.in/article/996921…
Sudheendra ji acknowledges ‘some restrictions’ on citizens’ rights, human rights by #CPC100Years. His approval tells us he is fine with it. Will he approve the same in India? He fawns over proposed programme on Tiananmen Square, which is truly farcical - it’s sign of massacre
I have been to China. Its progress is stupendous and mind blowing. But, rebuilding of the cities and infrastructure is by displacement of millions without any recourse to law. Would he approve a much milder Land acquisition law that had to be abandoned?

As usual, you can trace a pattern. #Maharashtra becomes epicentre of wave2 of #Covid. Suddenly narrative of Vaccine shortage is sprung on us, Forgetting that Vaccine takes around 6+6=12 weeks minimum before becoming effective. Main solution was prevention #RahulGandhi failed 1/3
Every critic forgets Health is a state subject. States should be thankful that #Modi govt took lead & saved millions but they criticised him. What measures were taken to upgrade health infra by Maha & other states? Why centres were shut? 2/3
Maharashtra saw collapse of Path labs ordering negative test for all. How do #RahulGandhi govts hope to vaccinate more when there is no infra. It's not polio drop that even Bachchan ji can give. Show the soln mr Rahul in Raj, Maha, CG. Stop finding scapegoats.3/3

Those who question every evidence about RSS are people who shut their eyes and claim there is no son.
Did Ambedkar Really Visit the RSS Camp ? The Evidence arisebharat.com/2021/04/16/did… via @arisebharat
Congress agents even question newspaper reports about RSS in Republic day parade. They question first hand evidence of participants. But they dare not question stories of angels, prophets, sons of God, ascent to heaven etc. 😊This game worked till RSS didn't speak up. Now no more
Tomorrow these critics will claim Karan Singh has gone senile because he accepted that shri Guruji met Maharaja of Jammu Kashmir. 😊
