Yes thank you for saying this. We Hindus in India have been trying to decolonise only to be met with the leftists speaking up against it.
Saw a post that said "leftists love it when countries and communities decolonize and embrace their culture that was lost to colonization".
I want to ask, do they though?
They are furious at Israel, they still have a strangle hold on nearly every country they still have "governance" over. Leaving Indigenous people in reservations...
I'm a First Nations Indigenous person (and a Jew) and if you think they are letting us decolonize... I want to both kind of laugh and cry. Because they ain't going anywhere, but our culture seem to be disappearing though...
No, colonial countries do not want to let go of their strangleholds they have on their colonies.
Glad I could help.
Google Lens-ed it and it says something like "it's wrong to look at them kiss"
A divine kiss by mmmmmr
If they were to do it, I'd ask them to start with West Bengal. Bengali Hindus need protection too.
The government of India needs to impose the martial law. These pakis living inside India need to be quietly rounded up and given the 9 mm effective immediately.
I might be too late to comment on this.
So yes Operation Sindoor was a success. It was a feat.
But the moment some fools in India came to know Col. Sofiya Qureshi was amongst the 2 women who led this, all of them started reducing her to just her religious identity. I even heard someone say "it must be intentional because the terrorists attacked based on religion" what if it's not. What if she was chosen because she could lead it. Not because of some DEI points either.
Let's not promote the same thing we stand against.
Awadh exists in the same region as the ancient Kaushal kingdom with Ayodhya as its capital. Which was for some time moved to Shrawasti and later moved to Lucknow. People in Awadh region speak Awadhi.
The word "Awadh" comes from Ayodhya (must have heard the song "holi khele raghubeera awadh me, holi khele raghubeera")
The Awadhi language belongs to the prakrit family of Indic languages. It differs widely from the other languages spoken in Uttar Pradesh and neighbouring Bihar.
For more context, Bhojpuri belongs to the language family in which you'd also find Bengali, Odia, Assamese and Magahi, Maithili and others.
Also, want to make it clear that Awadhi is not a dialect of Hindi. It is a language of its own.
It has a wide variety of artforms that still exist to this day like bhakti geet, bhajans, plays and storytelling, various forms of dance forms, various forms of lok geet and lok sangeet.
Pakistan again tried to attack our temples. India has only targeted the terrorists. Pakistan is targeting civilians. Road to Shambhu tempe in Jammu totally damaged.
You guys do understand that it's a translation from either modern time or the 20th century.
Translation is the key word here

I think one of the greatest things about Sanatan/hinduism is how animals are so intrinsically involved in worship and divinity, something which is often used by Hinduphobes to poke fun at us but I’m super proud of my ancestors for making us understand that every being is divine. That divinity is everywhere and that includes animals and plants as well.
In Hinduism, the bell—or ghanta—is not just a ritual object. It is a sacred symbol that connects the physical world with the divine. Each part of its structure holds a spiritual meaning:
Body: It represents Ananta, infinite time, reminding us of the eternity of the universe and the endless cycle of life.
Tongue (inner hammer): It symbolizes Saraswati, goddess of knowledge and wisdom. It is the part that generates the sacred sound.
Handle: It contains prana shakti—vital energy—and often features figures such as Hanuman, Garuda, or the Trishula, each with its own symbolic power.
🔔 The sound emitted by the ghanta is no coincidence: it purifies, focuses the mind, and wards off negative energies. Its vibration is related to Om, the primordial sound of the universe.
📿In temples, homes, and even in modern meditation apps, the sound of the bell marks the beginning of the sacred. It's used in daily rituals, major festivals like Diwali or Shivaratri, and also in modern yoga and healing practices.
💡Fact: The sound of the ghanta is believed to harmonize the five elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space) and can even have beneficial effects on the brain, promoting calm and mental clarity.
More than an instrument, the ghanta is a bridge between the earthly and the eternal.
Dancing Saraswati Hoysaleswara temple, Halebidu, Karnataka
Halebid – also referred to as Halebidu, Dwarasamudra, Dorasamudra – was a major city prior to the 14th-century in Hoysala kingdom.It is now a small town in south Karnataka. The temple belongs to the Shaivism tradition of Hinduism.
Like major historic Hindu temple complexes on the Indian subcontinent, this temple reverentially includes legends and ideas of Vaishnavism and Shaktism traditions of Hinduism. It was built in the first half of 12th century. During the early 14th century, Halebidu temple site along with others were sacked, looted and much artwork was damaged (particularly nose/face, limbs, sexual organs) by Muslim invaders from northern India (Khilji dynasty and Tughlaq dynasty of Delhi Sultanate). The relief panels present legends from the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana and secular fables found in Sanskrit texts of Hinduism. Vedic deities such as Agni, Indra and Surya, various avatars of Vishnu, the Hindu goddesses such as Saraswati, Lakshmi avatars, Durga, Kali among others are presented.
The carving is three dimensional where the deep reliefs often emerge as statues with depth. Panels are continuous, with one perspective showing one part of the legend, a perpendicular perspective of the same column or wall or corner showing another part of the same legend. The carving material was soapstone.
Above: Sarasvati is typically shown seated and holding a musical instrument. She is, however, the goddess of knowledge and all arts in Hinduism. The reliefs at Hoysalesvara temple show her in many panel, some where she holds a musical instrument. Three panels show her dancing, in a classical Indian dance posture (all are damaged panels, two of these panels is better preserved, the third is badly damaged). In this better preserved panel, she has eight hands and she holds a pen, a palm leaf manuscript, tools of other arts as she dances.
