Mughals were “Indian” the way a Boer is “African”. India would have been much better off had they exploited and left like the Brits. This entire argument of “but they stayed here” is so clumsy and mealy-mouthed and collapses under the slightest weight of moral scrutiny. You can’t
@ThePlaycardGirl
. You are simply wrong. After Babur every Mughal King was the product of an Indian wife. They knew no other homeland, lived, loved, died & were buried here, spent their resources here, & left their legacies to us Indians. I certainly wouldn’t cede any of them to Pakistan.
Hindu Dance Drama Kathakali Embraces Christian Stories
Kathakali is well-known for telling the stories of Hindu epics, but recently, it has adopted Bible stories - with performances based on Bible stories of Abraham’s sacrifice.

I’m loving this current wave of anti-Indian hate. Now that it’s finally coming full throttle from bourgeois whites, I’m breathing it in, imbibing it like the aroma of curry or BO on a crowded Delhi metro. Keep in mind it’s anti-elitism l—not from a downtrodden working class, but

More than a century? The state of Israel was founded in 1947. “Oh that old ancient and bloody conflict lol! It’s always been happening! Who knows!” Is such a cowardly deflection when you arm and finance one side

Zero agency and you’re just sitting there as a passive observer of your own death, surrounding by a hundred other people screaming crying and feeling the same. In a car the adrenaline kicks in, you swerve/break, you have at least the semblance of control.
In my experience, American “Desi” culture amounts to corny pretend affection for Bollywood, references to food, and whining about the British while fanatically embracing the British view of the Subcontinent. Without dharma, it’s all empty, a meaningless cosplay of Indian culture.
So by virtue of them supporting partition they now must stay and suffer? Politics change, dictatorships come and go, selecting who you support according to the history of that state when a dictatorship arises is hateful. 🧵
Instead of just taking and absconding, they instead seeded a radically different, exclusionist way of perceiving God and reality that is at total odds with the indigenous culture. It’s not like they went native and adopted dharmic thought.

Huberman as a womanizer is not scandalous except that it points to the fact that he and his ilk are depressive materialists. They live only to produce and consume, nothing more. This is why they divorce their “science-backed” techniques from their dharmic names—Yoga Nidra is

This person thinks this way because her mental model is American—her associations between “conservatives” as older and “liberals” as younger is a more or less (formerly) accurate way of perceiving American politics. Bemused, she just can’t seem to accept that the divide in India

A truly L take from one I can only describe as a clout rakshasa. The object of Hindutva should be unification and assimilation into the Indic fold, which already accommodates various heterodoxies. Not relentless dunking on Muslim smallfolk—let alone those who wish to pay respects

Very interesting to see Indian accounts take such umbrage to western media coverage of the inauguration. What else did you expect? And why? It indicates a deep craving for western approval that is so often ascribed to the opposition. Do you think Chinese media gives a damn when

Gonna be interesting the extent the Hindutva stuff goes into the American diaspora, especially the second generation. Lot of confused kids are going to be defending Hindu indigeneity to the subcontinent.
This is because India has shaken itself out of the Gandhian nightmare of being a global only fans account for poverty porn. In the Kali Yuga spiritual potency simultaneously diminishes and becomes more accessible, but the spiritual knowledge housed (and in some cases hidden)

Hey Quick Q: when you call yourselves “Hindus for human rights” are you being sarcastic? It kind of feels like a goof! It’s pretty hilarious! Esp that part where you guys condemned protections for dharmic ppl (aka “Hindus”) hahahah HYSTERICAL 🤣
This is now a specific genre of criticism: Specifically, with respect to movies from/about/or set in India, the position that the inclusion of hindu themes/imagery is inherently hindutva-adjacent. We saw the same brain-dead critique with RRR. 1/n

The discourse around Indian genetics serves a very specific purpose: divide the nation and present it as a blank canvas other cultures can freely continue to impose itself upon. No other nation indulges such conversations.

I’d say the specific cudgels they use are from things happening in India—grotesque street food, cow dung, SA, etc. but their target is very much BOTH Indians here AND Indians in India. I guess I see them publicizing those phenomena as a cope for what they correctly see as an

Despite her seemingly reluctant admission that Assad was a war criminal, Hasan had a tougher time getting Stein to call Putin one.”
It’s worth repeating over and over: Western religions are not religions. They are political in-groups which condemn the rest of humanity to subhuman status, violently scorning any enquiry as their “theology” crumbles under the slightest bit of scrutiny.

Hindus have historically had no problem integrating divinities into the fold, but without belief in core precepts like karma, dharma, reincarnation, moksha, etc. it’s not a merging—it’s a ruse.
The finest translation of the Gita I’ve ever read—with commentary expertly dispersed to never weigh down or becloud the finery of the verse itself, nor the elegance of its immortal wisdom. This is definitive; this is ultimate.

As an ardent Hindu I can’t agree with this more. The eastward tilt of many spiritually disaffected westerners has less to do with any superiority of eastern metaphysics than it does the vacuum of spirituality in the west. Without Christianity, the west is left only with vapid

Serious competence issue on the left. They had two clear shots at Trump and MISSED. Do you think they’ll really be able to give you free college or healthcare? Doubt it.
This is not to say that I don’t like Huberman or what he does—I do. Just interesting to observe what actually motivates him and his lot, and to explain why they make up ridiculous “sciencey” names for dharmic practices—they are blind materialists racing to a dead end.
