Kitty Party Pisachni of JNU @tishasaroyan thinks earliest hospital in the subcontinent is Dar-us -Shifa at 15th cen.

Let's debunk this LW Haati with inscriptions from Epigraphia Indica showing hospitals before 15th cen ;)

🧵Read :) Image
Tirumukuddal inscription of 11th cen CE of ViraRajendra Chola mentions about Hospitals & the expenditure spent on Maintenance of Hospitals.

It also mentions the names of the medicines stored in the hospital ;)

Siyan Slab stone inscription of 11th cen CE Nayapala talks about a hospital inside a Siva and Vishnu temple.

This hospital would take care of people who are sick and also provide accomodations for physicians. Image

Saivacharyas of Goloki Matha ran veterinary hospitals.

Pic2:
Inscription from Tripurakanteshvara Temple mentions about Goloki/ Golagiri Matha mentions about Visvesacharya ( 1190 AD) & his students.

PIC 3:
Ganpatideva Kakatiya Inscription of 1252 AD mentions Goloki Matha

Image

Image
Malkapuram Inscription of kakatiya Ganapati Deva dated to 1261 CE mentions about Vishveshwara Sambhu establishing a Goloki Math.

SO Goloki Math long before 15 th cen ran veterinary hospitals;)

Beyond the Guardian: The Supreme Mysticism of Bhairava 🔱

The popular understanding of Bhairava in Hindu practice is that he is a Kṣetrapāla, the fierce guardian of sacred spaces, protecting temples, cremation grounds, and devotees from negative forces. Image
In this role, Bhairava is often portrayed as a terrifying yet benevolent deity. His worship in this form is deeply rooted in folk and temple traditions, where he is revered as the vigilant protector who ensures the sanctity of the spiritual field (kṣetra). Image
However, beyond this guardian aspect lies a profound philosophical and mystical interpretation of Bhairava, especially within the Kashmiri Trika Saiva tradition.

In Trika Śaivism, Bhairava is not merely a deity among many, but he is the Supreme Consciousness itself. Image

Why Kālī terrifies the western Christian conservative wignats?

Because she shatters their limited idea "how a God should be" i.e, male and soothing looking, compassionate in their way etc, but Kali shatters it for a incel like deeply fed up society. Image
She embodies the fierce rage of divine femininity and is the destroyer of all negativity, which is why she appears fearsome and all-powerful. Though deeply compassionate, her way of teaching is rough and intense, much like a real mother who disciplines out of love. Image
And ultimately her guidance leads towards liberation.

For a faith that believes a woman was born from the “crooked rib” of a man, it’s naturally hard for them to digest the idea of the God as the feminine, as Śakti. Image

Kāli is the destroyer of Asuras and is also simultaneously their Mother. This is understood through the doctrine of Spanda (vibrational pulsation) and Prakāśa–Vimarśa (the unity of pure consciousness and its self-awareness). Image
Kāli is not a moral (morals as per society) figure who “takes sides”; she is the absolute Śakti, the dynamic face of Śiva who manifests, sustains, and dissolves all beings as part of her cosmic play (līlā). Image
Asuras, Devas, humans—everything arises from her freedom (svātantrya) and moves within her energy; thus even those she destroys worship her because she is the very ground of their existence. Her “devouring” is simply the reabsorption of forms back into pure consciousness. Image

BIG FAT LIES!! What was Siddharta reforming if Hinduism didn't exist ??

Ashoka inscriptions of Padera and Negliva depicts that Gautama's Shakya tribe as worshippers of Lord Śiva. Śiva was their Kuladevata.

Source: Epigraphia Indica Vol 5 Image
Image
Even Hieun Tsang, 7th century Buddhist traveller says that Suddhodhana, father of Siddharta, took him to temple of Isvara, a common epithet of Lord Siva. Image
Buddhist commentator Buddhaghosha mentions that Siddharta Gautama knew about Tantric Saivism also Siva Vijja/Bhutta Vijja, which included exorcisms.

Even Buddhist texts mentions Siva Vijja, by obviously portraying them in a negative light. Image

The Three Kalpas of Devī Durgā and Mahīṣāsura 💗

Across the cycles of creation, Mahīṣāsura rose again and again, and each time the Supreme Goddess manifested in a new form to protect the worlds. Image
In the Rambha Kalpa, She appeared as Ugrachanda Durgā, blazing red, with eighteen arms radiating fierce energy. For sixteen days the battle raged until She crushed Mahīṣāsura, establishing the eternal truth that adharma cannot prevail before the Mother’s might. Image
Image
In Nīlalohita Kalpa, She manifested as Bhadrakālī, dark-blue, armed with sixteen weapons. For nine days she fought, Her form both terrifying and compassionate, embodying the mystery of destruction that guards creation. To this day, Bhadrakālī is adored across Western India. Image

The lesser known aspects of Mahishasuramardini 🔱

The tale of Devī Durgā slaying Mahīṣāsura is often seen as good triumphing over evil. This is correct, yet beneath lies a deeper esoteric truth: Śiva himself manifests as Mahishasura. Image
Yes you read it right Lord Shiva himself manifests as Mahishasura.

According to the Kālika Purana, Mahīṣāsura was none other than an amśa (partial manifestation) of Lord Sadāśiva himself. Image
The Purāṇa records that Mahīṣāsura’s father, through deep austerities and prayer, requested Śiva to be born as his son. Out of compassion and līlā, Sadāśiva agreed and manifested as Mahīṣāsura. Thus, Mahīṣāsura is not a separate being but an emanation of Śiva himself. Image
