I think he realizes that his ideal safe space is that of a machiavellian caste leader in gangetic dehat.
Ridiculous. Hindus have no basis to cry victim about people demonizing them and their festivals when they themselves do this to a section of fellow Hindus. Apparently Christmas is allowed at the beach but Chhath isn't.
Bombay High Court declines to grant immediate relief to the Mithila Chhath Puja Sangh, which sought permission to hold Chhath Puja celebrations at Girgaon Chowpatty on November 15-16, 2026.
"Undoubtedly, there is a freedom of conscience, and free profession, practice and propagation of religion. However, the same is subject to public order, morality and health, as provided in the constitutional provision. In other words, there are checks and balances which are provided and required to be followed, under such constitutional mandate."
The association approached the Court after the DB Marg Police Station rejected its application on September 17.

Some of Mirabai's sabads seem more explictly kabirpanthi-ravidasi etc than others, like this one I think. Makes sense why rikhiyas and sadhumargis remember and sing Mirabai prominently in their jamma.
Jaipur is a lot like Thrissur imo. No industries but full of traditional elites, indulgent and extravagant, full of temples, elephants, medieval coded festivals, intangible cultural heritage, loves classical music n vedikett and has a thriving jewellery market.
Once you experience Deepavali season go-kreeda in Nathdwara, everything else feels super pale in comparison.
If your position is that film makers should absolutely not engage with a sacrosanct scriptural epic, be honest and say that rather than hyperbolically calling them bad faith actors and evil subversionists, comparing it to haidar etc for some lack of accuracy in their work.
Brilliant point by @SuhagAShukla ji. Read this to understand how subversion of our epics starts from academia and moves into mainstream art. Don't be desperately and embarassingly grateful that a movie has been made on our epics if the intent is to subvert and distort.
Typical naraz phoopha attitude. I couldn't care less about the film but obviously don't go around calling it yahoodi sazish against hindu qaum n shit. I'd rather go and watch kathakali to see a 'proper ramayan' than throw a fit at anything that doesn't interest me.

This AI-generated document is replete with errors and hallucinations. No wonder its authors want to remain anonymous.
I hope the authors get the document endorsed by S. Nishchalananda.
It has given me a great opportunity to present a complete repudiation of the Karpatri wing.
Please find a complete Śāstrīya Khaṇḍana (supported by Pramāṇas) of all the objections raised by @KushagraAniket against Cāturvarṇya-Saṃskṛti-Vimarśa (pp. 251–267) by Swami Karpatri Ji and Śrī Sanātanadharmālokaḥ by Paṇḍit Dīnānāth Śāstrī Sārasvata.
The author of this excellent work remains anonymous (“अज्ञात”). I received the PDF through a WhatsApp group. Kindly share it widely so that the truth may prevail.

This anonymous khaṇḍana is a work of rare scholarly depth. With meticulous citation of primary sources and rigorous application of traditional Praman, the author systematically dismantles every objection raised against the two classical texts. The precision of the reasoning, the fidelity to śāstra, and the clarity with which complex points of Cāturvarṇya and Sanātana Dharma are clarified reveal both profound learning and intellectual honesty. Such carefully researched responses are invaluable in an age when traditional positions are often dismissed without proper engagement with the original sources.
Please let me know if you face any difficulty in downloading the pdf.

Deepavali :
The biggest Hindu festival but here are some aspects you might not be aware of :
A festival also of remembering our ancestors and also the dharmika significance of crackers!
Our ancestors had devised some fun ways of getting even serious things done, as opposed to modern times where, often just the fun quotient decides the fate of even important things!
Fireworks are fun indeed, but without awareness about their core intent and purpose, deepavali loses its soul!
Please download and share this video as much as possible!
Wish all dharmanishtha bandhujana-s a very blessed Dhanatrayodashi!
जय श्रीराम !
A dayra is one of the greatest vestiges of public literary high culture in North India. A celebration of folklore without any parallel anywhere. Masses being thrilled listening to a dingal chhand describing the gore of an 800 year old battle is so sublime. More of this please.
Innate value k basis par I think max 3-4 cheezein hai jo Western tourist ko distinctly India me hi milengi. Himalayas, Bodhgaya and Vrindavan. Prolly Khajuraho and the big Chola temples too might be worth something for them. Kerala is our best state but its just like SEA/pacific.
Casual scrolling in the nearby regions fetched more. Nice try pujari ji.
Wth bro. Was exploring in the same region and stumbled across this, this ones a very major temple with the samadhi of a saint in the sanctum, gets lakhs of pilgrims and has a full fledged backstory related to the birth of an important Maharana of Mewar. 🤥Jhoothmaxxing
