You Shouldn't Expect A Reward For Something That Is Expected Of You.

Adding to it

1. Karn was a grown up adult picking fights with literal teenagers. He wasn't some poor guy getting bullied. He was trying to climb the ladder and he knew Dhritarashtra sits on the throne and Duryodhana is the crown prince so he became friends with him instead of the Pandavas. And the result - he was made king of Anga. The same duryodhana who insulted Vidur for being born to a handmaiden bestows an entire kingdom to another low-born man. Isn't that surprising?

2. Eklavya was also a grown up adult. He's Krishna's contemporary not Pandavas'. He was a prince and yes he was also a cousin to Krishna. And Dronacharya was a rajguru. A rajguru is dedicated to teaching the kids of only that particular royal family. Think of Rishi Vashisht being the rajguru for Suryavansh.

3. Vidur was a prime minister to the Kuru kingdom. And later to the Pandavas. Krishna decided to eat and stay at Vidur's home instead of the Kuru palace. Duryodhana insulted Vidur right before the Kurukshetra war and Vidur broke his bow and decided not to side with the Kauravas in the war. Now why would he own a bow? Was he trained in archery? Does that mean he was treated equal to his half brothers? The answer is yes. Oh also he was married to a princess from some unnamed kingdom( or maybe I just don't remember it). Also he left for the forest along with Kunti, Dhritarashtra and Gandhari. Because guess what? he was family.

I would actually like to add here that Vishwamitra was a Kshatriya first and then turned into a rishi, to become a brahmrishi. So yes the caste system was based on karma and not janma like someone mentioned already

One of my favourite things that I came across while reading ancient history is when Varahmir straight up countered Budhhist Sutras’ and Dharmshastras’ claims of women being “seductresses capable of straying learned men” by pointing out “bro. Its you. You’re the one whose looking at her the wrong way. You’re the problem here.”

And this is what our culture is. Imagine if we were just allowed to worship our gods and follow our culture and traditions in peace.

our ancestors were such simple people. gave up their land in exchange for the deity staying in their village for a day

Yes, so astronomically/astrologically(it's the same in our religion anyway), whenever the Sun passes through the same house as Rahu, there's a Solar eclipse, given the moon is positioned right opposite this conjunction, which means it is a new moon.

Similarly, a lunar eclipse is when Moon is in conjunction with Ketu, given that Sun is right opposite this conjunction. Which means it is a full moon.

And this year in March, we have both Solar and Lunar eclipse happening. Rahu is in Pisces, and Ketu is in Virgo. On March 13, it was a full moon, the Moon is in conjunction with Ketu. And so that's when a Lunar eclipse happened. On March 29, Sun is in conjunction with Rahu. So that's when the solar eclipse will happen.

Hope that helps.

So no one ever told me about Ram ji roasting the moon and listing it faults because it's just not as beautiful as Maa Sita after looking at her once in the gardens? No one?

And then he just returned to his Guru like nothing happened? As if he didn't just talk to the moon and insult it?

I generally prefer Valmiki Ramayan but the Balkand in Ramcharitmanas is pure gold.

Pakistan is the one attacking Indian cities and civilians.

And what do we do if you hide your terrorists in your homes and religious places. What do we do if you turn your schools and hospitals in terror base camps. How are we to be blamed if you use innocent children and women as shields to save your terrorist men.

It is like saying "please don't attack our homes" all while you're keeping terrorists as guests in your homes. Ofcourse you'd feel bad if someone comes and attacks your guests. But that doesn't make them saints. Neither does it make us villains.

What you sound like is nothing less than a manipulator.

me: cities in pakistan are under attack

some idiot in my notes, inevitably: OH SO YOU FEEL BAD FOR TERRORISTS? YOU SUPPORT TERRORISTS? YOU THINK INDIA SHOULD NOT BOMB TERRORISTS? YOU THINK WE SHOULD DO NOTHING?

do you really not have any fucking self-awareness when you're equating cities and the people living in them with being terrorists by default just because they're pakistani. imagine being so blinded by hatred you start sounding like a zionist. then again calling a hindutvadi a zionist is probably aspirational to them.

They have to make up stories to claim victimhood. And the leftists victim blame Hindu victims.

Islamist apologists are horrible people + doctor has the right to refuse treatment from unruly patients. That Kolkata doctor story is 100% fake. Islamists are just now busy manufacturing fake stories to gain sympathy. 

Their source is a random x/twitter post. The xenophobia is so evident here.

Indian lies exposed by a plethora of international audiences, all singing praises of PAF and the befitting response it gave to the bleak Indian cunts.

India has now broken their ceasefire after begging U.S. for one (source: https://x.com/sumonkais/status/1921255188800958668?t=dq3PuFCIOmcqcLbNduigZQ&s=19) and attacked further airbases. Pussies. Asked for the CF and then stabbed again.

Dude maybe stop projecting

this hinduphobia gang is so stupid its unreal because what the actual fuck do you mean that 'caste violence is an accepted fact' WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU ACCEPT SOMETHING SO INHUMAN.

atrocities are happening in YOUR NAME. people of your religion are commintting it, and you think its enough for you to just accept it?

this is fucking privilege. you think you get to stay passive while people are killed, raped, displaced, and tortured because of a centuries-old system that was designed to maintain your comfort and power?

if you really cared about people slandering your religion, maybe start with the people within it who are using it as a tool to dehumanise. maybe fix that first. maybe stop crying “hinduphobia” every time someone points out the rot.

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.
