An Ādiśaiva Brāhmaņa who served at a temple at Simhapuri mentioned to us about a Bhadrakālī temple his patriline is associated with.

On most days, she would receive worship in the Saiddhāntika fashion, being seen as the consort of Vīrabhadra, whose Tattva placement is between Prakrti and Guņa tattvas. Her liturgy is Samskrta and the praxis is Āgamika, an “Ārya” evolute ultimately rooted in Vaidika and Sāńkhya thought.

On some days, the Ādiśaiva priests will leave and another class of priests will temporarily take over the temple and offer her blood sacrifice in the sanctum sanctorum and clean it up before the Ādiśaiva Brāhmaņas take over the service.

She blesses both classes of priests and they both have experiences with her.

There are examples of how Kairata tribal praxis was adopted as the ultimate religion of Śakti and how Jagannātha’s original Mūrti is expressly acknowledged in the Skāndapurāņa as being the original prerogative of Śābara tribals alone (I mean, anyone who is honest to himself and not dumb will be able to figure this out himself with one look at the Mūrti) before Jagannātha allowed it to become an object of Vaidika-Tāntrika worship for the good of all.

This is why I am comfortable with the idea that completely different ethnolinguistic groups melded their rites and lores into the melting pot of Hindudharma. Today, Jagannātha responds to two different ritual systems which evolved in parallel and both of which WORK before him.

This is an object of wonder. There is little else like this elsewhere in this world.

Hindus should be perceptive enough to appreciate this. Others should be humble enough to acknowledge this.

A surprisingly good read given the author & his record.

Was always true of a section of H society. Meek to the point of being submissive , obsessed about what the world may think of them which Sri Aurobindo has aptly described as chakshu lajja , laying more emphasis on Karma than Dharma , upbringing , Nehruvian secularism , etc.

This series of mini documentaries ( each episode is around 7-8 min long which I've linked in the order of its uploading ) studies the issue of why didn't Muslims develop an entrepreneurial class or make good entrepreneurs themselves & lays the blame exclusively at the door of the British.

Apparently the British laid down the law on a strict reading of Muslim inheritance laws as per the Sharia'h & Quran ( which even the most Islamist emperors in Delhi didn't bother too much about ) , in much the same way they screwed up Hinduism especially the caste system by codification of laws as per the Dharmashastras etc preventing lateral & upward movement among the various jatis in the process ensuring rigidity & atrophy .

If you're wondering what about the Ismailis & Dawoodi Bohras there was an exception made for them . See the series to find out what it was & the reason they thrived & prospered.

Coming back to the muslims , it's sweet revenge I say for what they subjected us to during their rule . This was how the British implemented their version of jizia or a discriminatory move , though it was wholly unintended creating unintentional consequences for the community at large.

Also reminds me why our bureaucracy is the way it is & why after a glorious past , British bureaucracy is now leading their nation up sh!t creek without a paddle.

That is precisely what Parliamentary committees do - they spend time hosting hearings and chai biscuit sessions over non issues.


The important work is done by the cabinet and the PMOwallahs. These parliamentary committees/fact finding missions have little to no executive power - basically our own version of the US congressional hearing framework.

Chinese Stupidity Repeating Itself !

So goes the opening statement of this mini documentary . Watch it to find out more & know for a fact the reason a connection is sought to be made between the situation 2000 years ago & today is the absolute necessity of India to China , without which the BRI is doomed.

Alas ! What's more the CCP knows it but can't do anything to prevent it !

Will government take initiative to shut down Kota factory. Or will parents will understand that academics is not the end goal for an Kid, so they can stop sending their kids to death factory.

And replace them with what? All Muh Progressive countries have that Sunshine schools because their upliftment is filled with colonial exploitation, which country that is developed without colonial exploitation doesn't have ruthless schooling? Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, HongKong, Singapore all have brutal schooling. I mean look at those joke of a government schools in India.

Before advocating for ban this and that- what's the alternative?

Full of forced secularism!

Don't know when Bollywood will make true historical movie with this forced secularism.
