को नहि जानत है जग में कपि

Just putting this out there for those who don't know much about Kashmir and the conflict since quite a few marxists (or leftists) have taken the position that kashmir is occupied and should be free; Kashmir is actually the state of Jammu and Kashmir. It's a multi-ethnic and multi-religious state. Kashmir is claimed by Pakistan and China (who have even lesser claim to that region). Pakistan is a state created by Islamists for Islamic fundamentalism as they refused to share equal power with Hindus, they violently cleansed Hindus from the region they are currently occupying. Kashmiri "self-determination" has been paved by cleansing Kashmir off of its native Hindu population. Pakistan has settled non-Kashmiris en masse to Kashmir so no voting would be fair. "Self-determination" = ethno-nationalism at the cost of native ethnic groups within Kashmir. why are leftists or Marxist even supporting this? You can argue against the military presence, but if there wasn't a military presence there then that'd invite more attacks against Indians. Sorry but not sorry that we don't want our people dead.

The way these degenerates put out false information so articulately. Unbelievable 🤬

Should anyone tell OP that India’s so called “occupation of Kashmir” did not start with Modi. Even congress held on to Kashmir and so did any party that came in power (as they fucking should). Plus, OP telling that Modi sent 10,000 soldiers in Kashmir is interesting because he manages to fucking forgets to mention that there had been a terror attack in February that killed 40 army personnel (Pulwama). Also it makes sense for Kashmir to be militarized because they are on a border with a country that would love to annex Kashmir (already did annex a part of it), and plus it is a region where terrorists have done things again and again. Also for revoking article 370, well any sensible PM would revoke it because it caused a fucking GENOCIDE in the past when it was misused. Plus, it makes sense that a region that is continuously attacked, has terror attacks etc. should be in more gov’t control? Because are we really going to burden the state government with that responsibility. Keeping in mind that Kashmir’s main revenue source is tourism, why wouldn’t the people want tourism. The locals seem happy the economy is doing well? Also, if Indian army was abusing people of Kashmir, how the fuck would tourism be on the incline? Because for people who have not lived in India, Indians would fucking die than have any interaction with the police or army. So if there was any abuse sure as fuck no one would have gone there.

🤡

even if i consider this man's "analysis" true how the fuck should one accept that it was completely okay that tourists were attacked. Also, why is OP not mentioning that TERRORISTS (and the locals who supported them) were responsible for this attack majorly. One of the reasons everyone is freaking out about Pahalgam that it has been a while since civilians were killed in a terrorist attack in such a high number.

And i am no political analyst but can see through it pretty clearly. Please correct me if i am wrong

Naah I can’t with these mfs anymore. They are embarrassing and so out of touch. Echo chamber gang is expert at twisting facts and omitting important details in order to nab support from other ignorant lefties on tumblr that are ready to fume and set fire to themselves at the very mention of Israel and Netanyahu.

Anyone who’s interested in learning more about how Islamists invaded the region of Kashmir and ravaged it for centuries, converting, raping and forcing it’s native hindu, buddhist and sikh people to leave is welcome to read my pinned post on Islamic jihad and Kashmiri hindu genocide on my blog.

Lastly, Kashmir was never an “open air prison” Kashmiris like any other Indian citizen are allowed to visit, stay and live in other parts of the country. What was making Kashmir an open air prison was article 370 which was abrogated by the Modi government and now the average Kashmiri citizen has the same rights as other Indian citizens which were previously denied to them including women, lgbtq and other marginalised groups 👇

Just imagine how our Hindu gods must feel when humans make fun of facial features.

Ganesh ji would feel bad when someone makes fun of someone's teeth.

Shiv ji and Mata Gauri must feel bad when someone makes fun of someone's eyes or their hair type.

Vishnu ji (and by extension Mata Lakshmi and Mata Gauri) must feel bad when someone makes fun of their skin colour or marks on their body.

Brahma ji would feel bad when someone is made fun because of wrinkles or early graying of hair or any signs of aging.

I have been thinking about this and realised that we don't actually have a deva or devi for beauty. People think it is Mata Lakshmi but it's not true. None of her Ashtalakshmi forms also have her represent beauty. Mata

The sibling pairs have different skin colours — Vishnu-Parvati are dark skinned, Shiv-Saraswati are fair skinned, Brahma-Lakshmi are golden skinned — and all of them are called beautiful.

So where does this concept of beauty even come from? That fair is beautiful and dark skinned is not? Does it come from the west? From goddesses like Aphrodite, Venus or Freya? Or were they also made to represent beauty in the modern world to suit white people's beauty standards?

Shiva and Parvati

As a man, who's spent enough time in men's spaces to know how they think and why they act the way they act, I can say it's all because it is reinforced and backed by the men in that group. I think it's called peer influence.

One man alone will never act on his perverse thoughts, but once he comes across other men who think the same way, it becomes a daily conversation. They egg each other on. They encourage each other. Give each other that confidence.

( This applies to everything. Men interested in stock markets, men interested in global politics, men interested in sports. They bond over this shared/common interest. That's how a community works I mean )

We have so many examples of this, France's Gisele Pelicot case or the Bois locker room incident from Delhi or that group chat of some thousands of men.

No amount of shaming, no amount of education, no amount of legal action will change them, will fix them. Because there's always a bunch of men supporting them and blaming the victims. Because if you're not like them, you're not a man enough. You're weak, soft, omega, or simp, and what not.

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

Welcome to Awadh ke Maati! This is my journey back to my roots, celebrating the rich culture, language, and art of Awadh and Uttar Pradesh. As someone who has faced challenges embracing my regional identity, I created this space to reclaim and honor the beauty of Awadhi heritage.

Whether you're from Awadh and disconnected from your roots or simply curious about the Awadhi culture, this is a place to explore and connect.

I’d love for you to be part of this journey. Together, let’s keep our heritage alive.

I wanna know the whole lore now. What's with the rats and hammer and radish?

Japanese Buddhist version of Shiva be like

I find it slightly humorous how he went from full youthful yogin to very well fed older gentleman with hammer, bales of rice and rats, but hey he flourished

still same functions he actually has a similar form to the continental Bhairava but he looks like this most of the time

Naaah how is he so cute?? Also is he riding a radish in the first picture? Lol

Love how Shiva has evolved through cultures and practices. Japan also has other versions of Hindu deities like Ganesha and Saraswati. I’ve heard about it.

I would love to study more about the symbolism of the rats and the radish!

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

The Deep Meaning of the Ghanta in Hinduism

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.
