An Interesting #Thread on today's Gurukuls.

While my ultimate destination was #Badrinath , one of my halts were at Rudraprayag. When I was making my way to Sangam, where Alaknanda meets Mandakini, I was surprised to see a Gurukul here.

1/6 Image
This Gurukul has the capacity of 40 children. It not only teaches children free of cost but also gives them accommodation and meals at no charge.

At the moment, it covers the primary section. For further studies, they go to Kashi.

2/6 Image
"Shri 108 Swami Sacchidanand Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya" teaches Veda, Vedant, Purana, Jyotish vidya, Artha Shastra, Vigyan & Civics and all that in Sanskrit & Hindi/English.

They later can choose their subject of choice for graduation and post graduation.

3/6 Image
These children mainly either have one parent or no parents alive. The financial condition of their families is very weak.

This institution takes care of such children and generates employment.

4/6
Several students are Sanskrit teachers in some institutions or have become Pujaris at some Mandirs.

Most students now have a comfortable life.

I did my bit.

Please promote such Gurukuls. They are doing a great job.

I've been on a pilgrimage to Badrinath. Like everyone else on a pilgrimage, I've had various kinds of experiences: some pleasant, some unpleasant & some behind which one can discern a divine hand.
However, something that has struck me the most is the amazing work of Adi Shankaracharya aimed at rejuvenation of Sanatan Dharma & unification of its different traditions.

The pilgrimage begins at the holy city of Rishikesh. There's an ancient 🛕 of Tryambakeshwar i.e of Shivji.
At this place Adi Shankaracharya has built temples to several other dieties, Gods and Goddesses too, exemplifying his passion for unifying different sects of Sanatan Dharma (Incidentally, now this ancient temple is renovated into a grand, modern, 13 - storeyed structure).

There is an ancient temple in #Kerala, India made famous by thieves.

Four times in recent history, thieves stole the temple idol but returned it as they could not go far with it.

The reasons they gave, makes the story even more intriguing. Image
Mridanga Saileswari 🛕 is a temple at Muzhakunnu, Kannur district in the southern state of Kerala.

The 🛕 is among the 108 temples believed to have been established by Sage Parashuram. There is a story behind the temple getting the name “Mridanga Saileswari”.

Mridangam is a percussion instrument from India of ancient origin.

In ancient Hindu sculpture, mridangam is often depicted as the instrument of choice of Hindu deities like Ganesh & Nandi, the vehicle and follower of Shivji. Image

1. #LoveJihad Cases in India (#Thread )
For those who feel that this is just a myth, please watch the video giving details of how it started.

Check out what the courts said in the same matter.

Some cases in this matter are as follows:

2. The Haridwar police arrested Sadiq who posed as a Hindu to befriend a minor girl & raped her. Acc. to the FIR filed in the case on April 10, 2022, Sadiq had introduced himself as Ratan Tyagi to lure the Hindu girl. He threatened her with her intimate pics.
3. Newspaper hawker Asif Mohammad arrested after he slit throat of minor girl #PrachiRana in Himachal, as she resisted when he tried to molest her, on 5th April, 2022.

1. Were #KashmiriPandits the first Hindus to face the Genocide?

Do you recollect the Genocide that took place immediately after Gandhiji’s death?

Please watch this video to understand the details.

2. One Nachiket Paranjpe, a resident of Mumbai writes, that he remembers this day specifically. He must be barely 8 years old.

Every evening, Kaka would ask us all children to come home from the playground around 5.30 pm.

It was 6.30 pm that day but Kaka didn't call us.
3. On the contrary, Sunitatai, the factory owner to whom we went to play, hurried from the house to the courtyard & brought us home.

On the way home, a grocery store of some Surve uncle had a radio, everyone was listening to it keenly. (Gandhiji’s death)

1. When Ms perceive a threat, they find a viable physical solution for it. When the partition of India was on the horizon, they feared possible resistance from Hindus & Sikhs.
2. So, what they did was to militarise an organisation called the Muslim National Guard that they had created as an answer to the RSS.
3. M League went into overdrive to recruit all kinds of people into it: former soldiers from the Army & the INA, men with criminal proclivities, unemployed youth who wished to do something for their religion & hoodlums of all kinds.

1. A Long but very important #Thread if you wish to understand "The Ecosystem"

Why do you think is the Left Ecosystem in India in Successful?

What is this Ecosystem? And how is it built? Why is it successful?

Let's analyze it together.
2. What do people like you & me do? We do our regular office job, earn, spend time with family, watch TV/OTT/YT for entertainment & have occasional trips.

You might think that we all do the same. What's the difference?

Let's take a small example (a hypothetical one).
3. Let's say that I'm a well known VC of an esteemed Univ. I feel strongly that the students should have min 75% attendance in their classes. The moment I think of this, my secretary (who's asked to take a print out & circulate this) will first inform the Stdnts & the Tchrs Union
