How to turn an adversary into an opportunity!

When everyone thought Swarajya will end even before it starts it’s Journey, Shivaji Maharaja expanded it to twice the size within 18 days from the day of perceived end!

We all know Afzal Khan’s Story.
Let’s see what happened next! Image
The Battle with Afzal Khan is an important battle. Swarajya was in its infancy when Afzal Khan left Bijapur with the intention of ending Shivaji Maharaj. According to today's calculations, it should be a region of two and a half to three districts. When it was said that Afzal… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
such an attack by the Marathas would come. They all thought that Afzal Khan would have finished off Shivaji by now.

On the tenth day, Netoji himself had reached outside Bijapur. There was great panic in Bijapur. All the troops were stationed at the gates. They had received the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
So, when you see Modiji not taking action or keeping silent, please remember, in him we have a great visionary who is well versed with the real, decolonized history of Bharat which has produced great, intelligent and wise beings!
So,
Trust the process! Trust him! #2024Elections

The SANATANA DHARMA – An Elementary Text Book of Hindu Religion and Ethics Published by The Board of Trustees, Central Hindu College, Benaras, 1916, talks about the special manifestations of Vishnu called Avataras.
The word Avatara means One who descends, from Image
tri passing over, the prefix "ava" giving the significance of descending. It is applied to Divine manifestations of a peculiar kind, in which the Deity incarnates in some form to bring about some special result. When things are going badly with the world, and special help Image
is needed to keep the world on the road of right evolution, then Vishnu comes down in some appropriate form, and puts things right. Ten of His Avatâras are regarded as more important than the others and are often spoken of as " the Ten Avatiras." Image

PM Indira Gandhi said, “One has to let such events take their own course before stepping in.”

This was in an interview with the @FinancialTimes, when asked why she had not acted earlier to stop the violence during Assam’s Nellie massacre of 18th February 1983, when Image
the state was under President’s rule.

What did she mean by this? Why no-one questioned it? It was one of the worst riots in independent India’s history, with official No of dead was said to be 2191, with most of them being Muslims.

Let us understand Nellie massacre further. Image

The Nellie massacre took place in central Assam during a 6-hr period in the morning of 18 February 1983.The massacre claimed the lives of 2,000+ people from 14 villages of Nagaon district.

We are planning to visit the Shakti Peethas in #HimachalPradesh and then a short, relaxing, laid back stay somewhere in the mountains!

While exploring, I came across this beautiful place McLeod Ganj.

As always, I got distracted and started researching history of this name - Image
It is named after Sir Donald Freill McLeod who fell in love with this place. Ganj means neighborhood in Farsi.

More about McLeod: He was such a great Christian that a native gentleman gave him a “compliment” that “If all Christians were like Sir Donald McLeod, there would be no Image
Hindus or Mahommedans.”

He devoted his life to civilize the heathens of India, who were in idolatrous darkness! ImageImage

Classic example of how an egocentric attitude makes a person hypocrite-

When Nehru visited Naga Hills, some people wanted to present him with a memorandum in the public meeting demanding a separate independent Naga State. But the local authorities did not allow it. As a Image
protest, about three thousand Nagas rose in a body and left the meeting when Nehru was about to address them.He took it as a personal affront and began to say that the foreign Christian missionaries in this country were playing a dirty anti-national game and so on. Till then
he used to go about praising their “humanitarian” activities and even proclaiming that it was a great go out done to our country when shone local bishop was make a cardinal!

Ramchandra Guha’s book “Savaging the Civilized” says that Nehru did not consider Nagas amongst his
