1) In 1920s in an erstwhile princely state of Hyderabad, a communal organization called Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen was found with the tacit approval and backing of the Nizam himself.
2) Its stated aim was that of the upliftment of Muslims. But By 1940s organization made it abundantly clear that its real aim was to create a totalitarian Islamic state in Hyderabad and to reduce Hindu majority by their mass scale conversion to Islam.
3) 3) Around 1947 when Princely states were being integrated into India, Fanatic leader of organization - Qasim Razvi organized a brigade of militant volunteers - known as "Razakars" to further this dream of Islamic sharia state and to resist union with India.

“Divine in the stone...ancient art of Northwestern Aryavart.” Part - II

Artistic heritage of medieval Eastern Punjab (Indian Punjab) - Forgotten legacy of the past & its modern theft.
When it comes to medieval Indian art, people talk about celebrated sculptural art of Pala-Senas in Bihar-Bengal, famous elaborate carvings of Hoysalas, Graceful art of Rajput kingdoms and so on.

But Punjab is seen nowhere in this golden age of India!
Not so long ago I compiled a thread about the sculptural art of Western Punjab and Afghanistan shading some light on artistic heritage of forsaken land of Aryavart

1) Forgotten Hindu tirthas of Western Punjab. A silent chapter of our history, religion and civilization that we erased from our memory in 1947.

Part I - Forgotten "Golden Temple" of Punjab - Sun temple of Multan
2) Multan - a provincial town in Pakistan...hardly rings any bell to most of the Hindus today.

But what if I tell you that once upon a time Hindus from all over Aryavart were flocking there with offerings of aloe wood from Assam? Hard to believe isn't it?
3) This thread is the story of that glorious temple of venerable Aditya, dark shadow of jihadi barbarians that fell upon it, its tragic disappearance into the pages of history but not before the civilizational resistance of 1000 years to that Islamic barbarism..

#KnowVedas2 ,In this second post of series I talk about origin and dating of Vedas. This is in continuation to first post where I spoke about first shloka of Rig Veda. Read thread(right now 25 tweets but will be expanded by tonight)👇🏼cc @Sanjay_Dixit @vivekagnihotri @sankrant
2/n Veda means knowledge. The word comes from the Sanskrit language and is derived from the verb root vid, 'to know'. Originally the Vedas were composed in Sanskrit. There are two types of Sanskrit, vaidika and laukika.
3/n The Vedic Sanskrit is called vaidika and it is more complicated both in its grammar and in the use of certain words which are only found in the Vedas. The worldly or more popular Sanskrit is called laukika. This is the language of the puranas and itihasas.

@vivekagnihotri unfortunately we have enough evidence that keeps the so called ‘Scientific History’ of cabals including Irfan Habib, Romila Thapar exposed. I look to develop this into a thread to expose them in regards to rig-Veda dating. Shall follow in a while. 1/n
2/n @vivekagnihotri Rigveda is the oldest & the most important document of India’s past composed by Rishis & Rishikas. William Jones a judge to SC of Calcutta (1783) decided to pay close attention to Sanskrit as well as the Hindu Law.
3/n Jones’ translations of some Sanskrit texts appeared in Europe. To the extent that Friedrich Schlegel, an ardent member of the German Romantic Movement, posited in 1808 that in his opinion Sanskrit was the parent of all related languages.

45 Days Of @ElvisCostello: a twitter megathread in anticipation of the Oct 12 release date of LOOK NOW, the new LP by Elvis Costello & The Imposters

This is either a bright idea or a brilliant mistake, but this is only, this is only, this is only the beginning...
I did something similar to this 5 years ago, in anticipation of EC & @theroots' Wise Up Ghost LP, on tumblr.

(You can still find all those posts if you look, although a lot of the YouTube links etc are now dead ends. It was 40 Days Of EC then, so for 2018 I'm upping it to 45.)
Mostly I will be going chronologically from the early years right up to the present, but it feels right to start out with Costello's 2002 song, "45."

(There's an alternate "diner" version I can't find anywhere online)

VEDIC-Zoroastrianism compact analysis:

"Zarathustra"(a symbolic representation) word root is most probably the derivative of Jaratha, which means violent, love-affair & Yellowish. Yellowish denotes monotheistic Sun cult (followed by Akhenaten-Eknath/Moses-Mahasay-Musha), -
-& also the color of Jupiter(Guru/enlighten) & Shukra(White/Yellow). "Ahura Mazda" is the derivative of Abhira(a promonent Yadava Clan, Abhira/Habira/Indo-Hebrew Clan) & Masada(monthly). Only Saturn has the power over all seasons, ruled by Brahma & overseeing deity is Yama.
Yam/Jamshid means Yamuna(where the story of Bal-Krishna unfolded) & Yama-Sesa(Vaitarani). Yazata Atar(Vaitarani/Vatra +Barta means discourse) comes from Yah-Jati & Atara means crossing over a river, which signifies Vaitarani presided over by Yama & Yama's Southern gate-

1/ Manu (The progenitor of Humankind)
All different races of Mankind are derived from Manu and Shradha. The current Manu is Vaivasvata Manu.
2/ The word Manu literary means man but it is a title given to the progenitor of mankind. According to Hindu Puranas there are many kalpas (One day of Lord Brahma the creator) and each Kalpa has 14 manvantara and each manvatara has one manu. So basically each Kalpa has 14 Manus.
3/ The current manu of the present manvantara is Shraddhadeva or Vaivasvata Manu of this current Kalpa. He is the son of Vivasvat (Probably Surya) and is therefore also known as Manu-vaivasvata.
