Why would an Asuri attack Swarga if an Asuri already rules it as Devrani? (Asuris are girl's girls)
Shachi is an asuri. She is called Poulomi after her father Asur king Pouloman
So
Ik we shouldn't always make the Ashurs villain (cuz all of them are not the villains and I'll yell this till the end)
But why we never have any Asuri being a villain??? (Other than Mahishi ofc)
Why no Ashuri wants to conquer the universe or swarga or have some beef with Indra or any of the Gods
Why non of them are asking for any vardaan from either Brahma or Shiva
I feel like then Parvati/Vishnu will have to find even more complicated ways to defeat them 🗿
THAT'S WHAT IM SAYINGGGGGGGG
This is why Mahishi my beloved
I mean hey I support women's rights but also women's wrongs yanno
Mahishi is so cool hsjskskd also im glad she doesn't get any of those Ovidish Medusa treatment in our mythology
She's a straight up beast and she knows it 💅
We need more evil Asuris frrr
Like I said they'd use "misinformation manufactured narratives and manipulation". And just look at how dedicated they are to this.
I'm glad some of us are doing the right thing by fighting this with truth. Because in the end truth triumphs.
Wow how well manufactured this is smh
Nearly ten days after the Pahalgam attack, watching the various responses to said attack...part of me is shocked, and another confused. Yet another thinks that something like this is inevitable.
Too many people reacted to what is undoubtedly a terrorist attack by channelling their rage and grief into persecuting innocent people because the terrorists asked those they killed to recite the kalma, undoubtedly being Islamic in their origin.
Yes, they were Muslim. Does that mean there should be violence against innocent Kashmiri students because 'Hindu khatre mein hain"? No. Do you know why? Because a large part of why such Islamic organisations sway local sympathies towards them is by the catchphrase "Islamiyat khatre mein hain." Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Why wouldn't it? We've heard an alternate religion version of it over TV channels and so-called "news" and "leaders of the free world" screaming Hindu khatre mein hain, khatre mein hain, after all.
So many of us believe it, too.
Why, some of us may ask, shouldn't we believe so? We are Hindus, and we aren't safe even in our own land, our own country. Perhaps we should look deeper into the 'why' of it. So much of violence against us is by ourselves, for daring to be different. Lynching, beating, far more for far too less. So what if someone eats meat? They aren't stopping you from living your life. Why should you put an end to theirs?
But, then, as people who hold power today ask, what about the invaders who invaded India 1000 years ago, 1200 years ago? People whose descendants divide the country today, covet its assets for themselves? Including Kashmir, the jewel of India?
To that is my answer: If that is what you believe, then we should all leave this land. Most of us, at least. None of us are indigenous to the land we live in, except perhaps the tribes in Sentinel island. Other than that, all of us, except for the populations that are tribal/adivasis, probably migrated from somewhere else, simply some time longer ago than 1200 years.
But then, argue some, what about religious texts that speak to tens and thousands of years of ancestry? The Mahabharata, the Itihasas, the Puranas?
In that case, well, might I remind you that Sanskrit is not the single sole classical language that speaks of thousands of years of history? There is the matter of at least one other culture and language that exists alongside. The Sangam literature too speaks of thousands of years. Three whole Sangams, might I mention.
Almost every single ancient culture claims grandiose descent. We do not know how much credence should be given to any of these claims, but, if we are giving credence to one claim, why leave the others behind? Give equal credence, why don't you?
Coming back to 1200 years of "slave mentality" and "coveting territory" I will be paraphrasing words written nearly a 100 years ago by a man who identified as Kashmiri, if not perhaps Hindu, though he rather did admire the title Pandit. He very famously preferred to be known for his scientific temper, possibly a reason why today's rulers loathe this man.
He said, and I paraphrase, that those rulers are not considered foreign rule because there was marital intermixing of races and blood relations, because whatever money was made was spent inside India, because it did not go to another country (Ghori and Ghazni aside, the temple was rebuilt within 50 years, though the 'collective trauma' was first heard of in the British parliament sometime in the 19th century)
People have a beautiful tendency to syncretise, to meld with each other, to form cultures of harmony. Look at each state of India, the cultural plurality (that a homogenous overarching 'desi' identity cannot and will not encapsulate, but this discussion is for another post) especially Kashmir. There is amazing cultural syncretism in their literature, art, architecture, even notions of Kashmiri identity.
There is a unity in diversity. When is this threatened? When a section of the population felt trampled on by the 'high-handed' handling of things (in their own words) by the 'elected' powers (there is widespread allegation of electoral rigging over the years in Kashmir)
In the '80's and '90's it comes in the form of 'Islamiyat khatre mein hain' because at that point, they felt they weren't given the opportunities they should by the Indian Government. There was liberal support from external organisations, and insurgency flourished. The Kashmiri Hindu exodus takes place in these decades, and there is an element of "Hindu khatre mein hain" which is fanned by the government. The following two to three passages are from a report by Human Rights Watch in 1992, during said exodus.
A number of Hindu refugees from Kashmir have subsequently denounced the government for encouraging them to leave under false pretenses. In a letter to the editor of Alsafa in October 1990, some 20 Pandit refugees alleged that: There can be no dispute about the fact the Kashmiri Pandit community was made a scapegoat by Jagmohan, some self-styled leaders of our community and other vested interests ... [T]he plan was to make the K.P.'s [Kashmiri Pandits] migrate from the valley so that the mass uprising against occupation forces could be painted as a communal flare up.... Some self-styled leaders of the Pandit community... begged the Pandits to migrate from the valley. We were told that our migration was very vital for preserving and protecting 'Dharm' [religious integrity] and the unity and the integrity of India. We were told that our migration would pave the way for realizing the dream of Akhand Bharat [undivided India].... We were made to believe that our migration was very important for Hinduism and for keeping India together.... We were fooled and we were more than willing to become fools.205
At the same time, it is clear that many Hindus were made the targets of threats and acts of violence by militant organizations and that this wave of killing and harassment motivated many to leave the valley. Such threats and violence constitute violations of the laws of war, and Asia Watch was able to document many specific cases. • On September 20, 1989, O.N. Sharma, a 47-year-old travel agent from Srinagar found a letter written in Urdu in his mailbox, signed by the JKLF. Sharma told Asia Watch that the letter was addressed to him by name and it referred to him as an "Indian dog." The letter told Sharma to leave the valley by September 27, or he and his family would be killed. At the time, Sharma was living with his wife, two children and his mother.
Again paraphrasing words written very soon after Indian independence. "Minority communities should feel secure in their rights as Indian citizens and that is the part of the majority to ensure. Communalism in all forms is the greatest danger to Indian sovereignty as a whole."
Even today, Kashmiri rights are not ensured. The Indian Army and militant/terrorist bodies have both behaved horribly with Kashmiri women over the years with multiple documented cases of rape still pending action (Human Rights Watch has multiple reports on such cases) and so...such boiling over feels inevitable, on some counts.
The Kashmiri people deserve a voice in their own fate.
@scribblesbyavi bhaiyya, you may like to read this.
Wait, you said son/daughter. Can you elaborate?
She is described as a son/daughter of Khyati and Bhrigu. Her siblings are Dhata and Lakshmi.
In Mahabharata, in the tale of Uttanka, she appears as a woman in the Naga realms, alongside her sister Dhata, where they weave the black-and-white threads of days and nights, on the wheel of time which is turned by the six seasons.
Dhata and Vidhata have been since long been thought of as the twin goddesses presiding over the concept of Fate.
Does that lie help you sleep better?
India violated the ceasefire as expected
I'm just so sad
Remember, it was not an attack on Pakistan or Islam. It was an attack on terrorism.
Justice is served ,
Jai hind 🇮🇳
Newsflash, Hindus have a divine feminine, and no she's not just pretty pretty as Lakshmi, or pure and simple as Saraswati, she's also rage and destruction like Kali and Durga. If you don't believe in this, you're a misogynist, because why will you see only a masculine figure as God?
And what about transwomen? To feel more close to womanhood, they wear churi, payal, and bindi too. Are you telling me that's wrong?
Hindu traditions and festivals just enslave women and reinforce patriarchal practices, karwa chauth for example, a festival where a married woman has to fast and stay famished for whole 24 hours, NO water and food and some of them don’t even swallow their own saliva and why? for the long life and well being of her husband. Husbands are placed on a pedestal in hinduism, he is more revered than god sometimes while reducing women to obedient and self sacrificing caretakers . It reinforces the idea that a woman’s purpose revolves around a man’s needs, his health, his happiness, his survival while her own identity and agency is considered as irrelevant. In this religion women’s existence will always be tied to men and are expected to embrace such misogynistic ideals or else she’ll be labelled as a “too westernised housewife” or other names they love calling when you go against the system
I was going to compare them to snakes and scorpions. But these terrorists and pakistani muslims are a different breed in themselves. Spineless at times and at times backstabbing. Lower than the creeper-crawlers.
People on Indiablr who are surprised "OMG Pakistan violated the ceasefire I can't believe this😨😨" don't really understand who we are dealing with right now.
This exact same thing happened in previous fights too, exact same statement was given by India after 26/11 that– the next time Pakistan breaks the treaty, it will be accepted as a signal for war.
Since then, more than 15 years have passed, just count the number of times Pakistan attacked India.
That country is a terrorist nation quite to its core. You have to be another level of shameless to openly accept that you've been funding terrorism for the last 30 years. This was such a good opportunity but yea no government ne hath main chudiyan pehen rakhi hain, even after last night's violation, Misri is still ready to negotiate.
Kutte ki dum kabhi seedhi nhi hoti.
Oh god. This is disturbing.
Rapists are not some alien species. They live amongst us. They grow in silence, in group chats and communities online. Getting away with all their tiny little acts of perversion. Until they get the confidence (backed by others like them) to commit such heinous condemnable acts.
The legal/ justice system will have to bring justice to this, we gotta keep pushing. They should be forced into taking a decision. Wish we just had enough international presence to put India's legal system in focus, so that they'd do something to save face
everyone who supports a rapist or is a rapist himself is a threat to women. these ppl are sick in the head. you won't believe me when i say this but they don't even respect our goddesses and create their own communities on reddit where they masterbate to their images or abuse many girls....this is their way of showing how much they disrespect us...the way guys talk about women is traumatizing
this just makes me more sick. abhi bhi ghamand hai apne gender pe??? im asking all the men here who are still quiet
