I’m not entertaining you, so no point being disappointed.
I said, that I’ll debunk each source one by one.
If you already knew that Ashokvadana isn’t true about Pushyamitra then why did you mention it as primary source?
Lengthy thread, because that’s how you analyse.
Where there is single source to prove of oral tradition?
So Buddhists were so weak that they couldn’t even write inscriptions? Ashoka was known for it.
“(...) If there were no Shivaji everyone would have been circumcised.”
Granthavali of Kavi Bhushan, quoted in (Oxford in India readings, Themes in Indian history.)
Kavi Bhushan was living in times of Shivaji
The earlier lines are mentioned below:
“The Muslims have destroyed all our temples; they are hoisting ‘Ali’s flag everywhere; rajas have fled; everywhere one sees (Muslim) pirs (saints), and payghambars (prophets), nowhere Hindu sants and sddhis; Kashi has lost its splendor and there are mosques in Mathura.”
In his opinion it was Ch. Shivaji who could save Bharat from Islamisation.
Here is one more poem by great Kavi Bhushan at Birla House :
Important thread wrt claim that the element found is not a #Shivling but a remnant of a fountain.
First I'm sharing arguments to assert it to be fountain is vague (from perspective of a student of Architecture).
Parties may refute it or use in court if found substantial.
Well, the structure must be of the era of Aurangzeb should it be part of "Fountain Jet" or "fawwara."
Then one needs to look at the working of landscape architecture of that era. This paper gives a very good details & I shall use it as source jstor.org/stable/4415632…
When Babur came to Bharat (Hindustan in his words), he found only "Saqia" (rehet) the most effective method to pull water up.
The paper also explains that "gravity" was major method & when water-body was close-by (Ganga here) , it was the source.
Pre-set notion shouldn’t supersede existing records.
The Sringeri Records State:
“The positive reply from Parasuram Bhau (...) plunder of Sringeri was not due to any deliberate intention on his part, but a result of the predatory habits of the Pindaris in his contingent.”
Further @honshomyoshu , the Sringeri website doesn’t glorify Tipu as you claim but just gives passing reference that Hyder Ali & Tipu we’re drawn towards Peetham & saw Acharya as Guru.
Now, as per the mutt’s record that Marathas never intended to do what the Pindaris had done and at the same time also tells us that Tipu was donating to the mutt, but some observations give an interesting perspective.
Have you read Raja Kesavadas by VR Parameswaran Pillai?
3)Served the crown? @GauravPandhi then y British crown waste so much money and resource on surveillance? Why they didn’t return his degrees & award him position as Ambedkar?
4)u have problem with his pension? Which revolutionary wasn’t given pension? In fact he was paid least.
With degrees snatched, how would he have led the life if not even pension?
How much hate & misinformation you brew @GauravPandhi ? While Nehru wrote books, Savarkar had to scribble with on walls.
