For those who call #Deepawali
a cultural celebration,
this thread is a- step by step must follow:
1- Begin with preparing your Pooja Sthal for invoking Shri Ganesh, Mata Lakshmi, Vishnu ji, Kuber ji, Navgrah Devtas, Shodsh Matrika, Kul Devi Devta, Kalash/ Varun Devta,Deep Devta.
2- After Aachman, Pavitri karan & Sankalp, invoke all the Devi Devtas,

First of all do Poojan, Snan & Abhishek of #Ganesh ji .
3- After Ganesh ji, do Poojan & Abhishek of Lakshmi ji.
4- Poojan Abhishek of Vishnu ji (we have Shaligram ji), other Deities/ Siddha Yantras next.
5- Next do the Aarti, the 13th step of the Shodashopchaar Pooja.
#Deepawali is a #HinduFestival not a cultural event!
6- Lighting up your home & surroundings with Deepaks, flowers & dressing yourself up is also a Traditional Ritual to welcome the Devi Devtas &
not a ‘me vs you’ decoration or fancy dress competition! twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
7- Agni Yantra, Baan vraksha, Chanra jyoti i.e; pyrotechnics/ fireworks come after Pooja & giving daan dakshina
#Crackers are a part of the tradition of Akaash Deep daan- lighting up Mandirs,river banks& neighbourhood to ward off darken caused by Sun’s transit into Libra.
8- Celebration with not just family & friends, but also with the underprivileged whom even #ShriRam respected as equals, with the animals who befriend us from eternity- remember Yudhisthir’s dog whose blessing helped him ascend to heaven in Indra’s chariot? twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
.. families of our staff, the dhol walas.. all look forward every year to #Deepawali celebrations- the Pooja, gifts & lighting up crackers at our place.. share & be blessed. #ShubhDeepawali 🙏🏻 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
#SharadPurnima - #KartikPurnima the month long #Hindufestivals based on historical events in different Yugs, occur on particular Ritus & astronomical conditions as per Hindu calender.
How many Christ- Muz follow the rituals from this thread if you call #Diwali cultural?
How many left liberals chris- muz fast on #RamaEkadashi if #Deepawali is not a #HinduFestival & ‘just a cultural festival of lights of secular India’?
Do Chis-Muz, pseudo left libs surrender themselves at #ShriKrishna ‘s feet on #NarakChaturdashi #GovardhanPooja ?

Call #Diwali ‘cultural’ only if you follow #Hindu Pooja Rituals❗️
Oh yes, & don’t give us gyan on ecology & environment because it is the #Hindu Shastra - #HinduFestivals that first gave the concept of ‘co existence & importance of Nature’ to the entire world❗️
What is #GovardhanPooja - a regressive ritual⁉️

Oh Indian travellers,
while in any other country, don’t forget that you represent all 1,441,303,328 citizens of Bharat & any uncouth, uncivilized behavior/ activity of yours belittles us all!

In Kenya on the safari, we’ve been encountering many Indians behaving irresponsibly- from getting off the jeeps for reels & selfies to climbing atop the jeep (strictly not permitted), yelling on top of their voices passing weird statements, to even touching the animals putting the lives of people as well as animals in danger…😡 If the animal reacts, its ‘mauling’ the humans, & if he does react, he’ll be shot dead in a minute!

Passing thepla/ chaklis across to their groups in other vehicles, littering leftovers, wrappers..🫣

Every time such a group was in the vicinity, we had to hear, “this one is from your country”😟

Posting few clips of some groups in a thread,
lets identify & shame them!

#KenyaDiaries #MasiMara
Another group in 2 cars was such an embarrassment screaming across the cars..
when politely asked to maintain silence, called us names,
“desi baandri”, “who are we to tell them” etc., & went even louder,
did slow down a bit when they saw me making their video..

Do you know that one kick of a giraffe can kill a lion instantly?

Made a mistake of not making a video of this gujju group that went as close as 2 feet for reels & selfies, to this pregnant giraffe & her son at crescent island walking safari.

Despite their guide & ours stopping them, they went on for over 30 minutes.. what a shame!

Hamas ensured that the world watches what they did to the Jews on Oct 7,
but none saw the pain of the 50 lakh plus Hindus brutally tortured, disrobed & paraded, humiliated & raped, mutilated & butchered in 1947;
the ordeal that the few survivors could share, also went unheard & eventually died down with them..
@sharan_shivani in her #podcast brings to you, the pain & sorrow of a 10 yr old survivor who now is 86…
#1947HorrorsOfPartition
..how have their lives been, who saw with their own eyes their mothers, sisters, wives physically abused by jihadis who were their neighbours/ friends!

How did they live through the memories of their homes, villages being looted, burnt, captured,
their families ruined, their dear ones being butchered..

If the memory from age l 10 can make a man cry at 86, imagine the trauma he has lived through..

I’ve been sharing since long, my family saga with you tweeps, I regret not having video-graphed their ordeal🥲
What was happening on the
‘Line of Divide’ when Nehru was giving the speech of Independence!

Today, in a thread, I shall tell you about the so called:
“True spirit of #Sufism in Kashmir”,

The delusions of who so ever concerned,
about #Sufis & #Kashmiriyat (that has been wiping clean, the natives from their homeland since early 14th century), must be cleared once &… https://t.co/tOI1PohXZGtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Birth of the 1st masjid in #Kashmir
courtesy the 1st #Sufi Bulbul Shah/ Sharf-Ud-Din Abdul Rehman who converted the Raja & 10,000 Hindus in 1324.

So, the ones who claim Kashmir to be their property, were all Hindus who abandoned their Dharma on the point of sword! Image
The first thing that Sufi Sayid Ali Hamdani do on setting foot on the land of Kashyap Rishi, was to break Maa Kali Mandir & build a Khanqah over it!

His son, Amir Sayid Mahmood wiped off Hindus from Kashmir, razed Mandirs, together with Sikandar Shah Miri/ Butshikan. Image

What must Hindus know before consuming #HalalMeat

Should you consume all those stress hormones- the extreme psychological stress, fear, physical/ mental fatigue, dehydration, that the animal experiences before being slaughtered for its meat?

#Thread Image
What meat is #Halal ?

Methods of killing diffrent animals for their meat, as per sharia. Image
Zibah-al-Ikhtiyaariy- killing an animal reciting, “Bismill@h All@hu Akb@r”, using a sharp knife.
Method of kinning a cow, sheep, goat👇🏻 Image

For once, stop singing praises, posting selfies, counting followers please!
For once, scream on top of your voice to get justice for #PakHinduRefugees who belong nowhere,neither Bharat nor pakistan!
For once, try to know where they slept last night after their homes were raized!
This is how their women & children slept last night, no food, no shelter for around 80 homes! 🥲
What a shame, shame on us!!

What’s the fault of
#HindusOfPakistan who were left to die there by the #Nehru gov whose edu minister left’m as ‘hostage population’ to be slaughtered when India’s arm needed to be twisted in favour of Ms in 🇮🇳?
#ThreadsOfThreads about what those who’ve come here have got!
Where are #PakHinduRefugees supposed to live when they come begging refuge in a land that is rightfully there’s?
Does state/ centre gov have any camps for them?
NO‼️
So what do they do, how do they survive?
2/n
They buy small pieces of land from ppl in 🇮🇳at exorbitant prices by selling the last piece of silver on their women or child’s body, & by slogging on daily wages, build whatever small structure they can!
One fine day @JdaJodhpur wakes up & says, that land is illegally occupied!
