In June 1951, Prof Samar Guha (known to all of us as great Netaji follower) reported to President Rajendra Prasad about the systematic annihilation of the minorities (mostly Hindus) in east Pakistan (now Bangladesh). Guha gave the president copies of his previous booklets, the foreword for one of which had been written by Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee. According to Mookerjee, Guha was "eminently qualified to deal with this subject [as] he speaks from his personal knowledge". Several years later, Guha and others gave far more graphic accounts (especially those related to hapless Hindu women) to Gumnami Baba (Netaji in disguise) who was horrified and became very very bitter. @monidipadey @Sanjay_Dixit @chandrachurg @tathagata2

@Aabhas24 @RatanSharda55 Five of the seven members are Brahmins, with three being Tamil Brahmins, but none of them are owned by the Dravida parties. Instead they are for BRA. 😔

Yes, BN Rau was a Dalit.

I swear so in the name of Savarna Dr Ambedkar who said:

“The credit that is given to me does not really belong to me. It belongs partly to Sir B.N. Rau the Constitutional Advisor to the Constituent Assembly who prepared a rough draft of the Constitution for the consideration of the Drafting Committee.”

The 1967 diplomatic horror that Congress erased from history.

When China falsely accused young Indian diplomats K. Raghunath and P. Vijay of spying over a simple photo, they were dragged by their necks, stripped, and brutally beaten by a mob of Red Guards on a Beijing runway.

Red Guards beat and kicked two Indian diplomats in wild scenes at Peking airport to-day before they left by air for Hongkong after being expelled from China accused of spying.

The Second Secretary Mr Krishnan Raghunath and the Third Secretary, Mr. P. Vijay were dragged and pushed, held by the neck and arms among a crowd of Red Guards several hundred strong.

They were punched and kicked and Red Guards waved red books of Mao Tse-tung’s quotations at them. Other Indian diplomats were hit and Third Secretary,

C.V. Ranganathan was made to bow his head by the crowd who tried to force him to kneel on the runway.

Embassy staff who tried to go to the aid of the two expelled, diplomats were manhandled and kept away.

The response from the ruling Congress government? Utter paralysis. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi openly admitted in Parliament that it was “not possible… to outline the steps the government might take.”

From the complete surrender of 1967 to the 2008 secret MoU signed with the Chinese Communist Party with Rahul Gandhi right at the table the paper trail of appeasement is clear.

This letter is a beautiful piece of modern Indian scientific history. It captures a moment of deep negotiation, personal humility & institutional building involving 1 of India’s greatest minds: Satyendra Nath Bose.

The recipient of this letter is Sir Syama Prasad Mookerjee, who in 1938 was serving as the Vice-Chancellor of Calcutta University. Syama Prasad was actively trying to poach the absolute best Indian scientific minds from across the country to bring them back to their Alma Mater in Calcutta. He had written to S.N. Bose, who was then making waves at Dacca University, offering him a prestigious position under the Palit Trust (Palit Professorship of Physics).

What makes this letter beautiful is how it balances profound emotional devotion with absolute, unvarnished pragmatism. Bose admits that the call of his Alma Mater is almost impossible to resist. But then, he negotiates like a true realist.

He asks for a permanent tenure, matching pay & an additional house allowance of ₹150, dryly noting: "I fear Calcutta will be a very much more expensive place to live in than Dacca."

Even the geniuses who redefined the fundamental laws of quantum physics had to calculate the cost-of-living index before switching jobs!🙏🙏

[Rakesh P Sheth @rakeshpsheth]

As someone from South India working in the temple space, I’d argue the opposite.

The temples you admire are themselves products of politics.

Not party politics.

Civilizational politics.

Kings who patronized them.
Communities that funded them.
Institutions that sustained them.
Devotees who protected them.

Even today, temple lands, heritage conservation, administration and the HR&CE debate remind us that temples remain deeply intertwined with governance.

The North preserved faith through resilience.

The South preserved institutions through continuity.

Neither happened in the absence of politics.

The miracle of Hindu civilization is not that it escaped politics.

The miracle is that it survived every form of politics.

[Arvind Singh 🇮🇳 @arvindsingh_dev]

Nehru wrote to Padmaja that he felt ‘so relived’ after hearing the death of 400 ‘Hindu peasants mob’ in police firing in Bhagalpur. In his letter he says, ‘Normally such a thing would have horrified me. But would you believe it? I was greatly relieved to hear it!… I felt that the balance has been very slightly righted.’ This letter dated 5/11/46 ends with ‘Love’.

A man with wise and wisdom that we have been repeatedly told in popular culture and read in our textbooks, he felt relieved when he heard that 400 peasants were killed in police firing.

[Priti Gandhi @MrsGandhi]

Action is not being taken merely because a “Pakistani” song was played.

Real issue is that the event openly glorified terrorists, students were brandishing swords and raising “Sar Tan Se Juda” slogans.

Cunning how @GargiRawat Ansari chose to highlight the least relevant detail while glossing over the most disturbing ones.

If facts matter, report all the facts. If context matters, provide the full context.

Someone so committed to leaving out half the facts is also well known for leaving out half her name!🤷🏻‍♀️ #IYKYK

[Nivedita Tiwari @TiwariNivedita]

Yathā piṇḍe tathā brahmāṇḍe - “as in the microcosm, so in the macrocosm.” 

While Hindu texts verbalize this awareness of the connection between the micro and the macro, the un-manifest and the manifest, the sthitī and the laya, and the gross and the subtle, our arts concretise it through the language of form and structure. 

Hindu philosophical concepts become visible as a series of metaphors absorbed by the Indian art forms in their connotative and denotative meaning. These metaphors permeate all our schools of philosophy, metaphysics, scriptures, and the other disciplines in our tradition. There is oneness at every level despite the incredible diversity.

Some of these metaphors are:

Bīja (the seed) - the temple architecture begins with this unseen centre around which the edifice is built and from the other structures emerge. Bīja, at once, encapsulates the ordinary cycle of life and the profound universal truth of cosmic interconnectedness and unity. 

Stambha (the pillar) - the stambha represents the sacred-cosmic tree, which emerges out of the bīja and is the connection and the communication between the earth and the cosmos, the mundane and the sacred. It is the source of life as well as the carrier of wisdom. It symbolises man’s progressive movement from the material to the spiritual world. 

Puruṣa (the cosmic being) - in architecture, the Indian temple as a whole is seen as the Vāstu Puruṣa with different body parts corresponding to different parts of the temple and the deity in the sanctum sanctorum is the jīva.

Nābhi (the navel) - In the physical body, nābhi or the navel, is the point of attachment of the foetus to the mother. The Ṛgveda states, “from the Puruṣa’s navel came the firmament”. In architecture, it is the brahmasthāna - the central place which symbolises Brahma and lotus.

Garbha (the sanctum sanctorum) - Metaphorically, garbha, lies under the nābhi. If nābhi is the seat of fire, garbha is the ocean which keeps it aflame. Garbha is where the creative and the reproductive forces reside. In temple architecture, the sanctum sanctorum, where the deity (or the bīja) resides, is the garbhagṛha.

Cakra (the wheel) - with a hub and spokes, cakra, symbolises ṛta, or the cosmic order and the cyclic nature of time. It denotes the idea of a centre at rest and periphery in motion. In the human world it is the potter’s wheel, in the sky, it becomes the sun itself and is also personified as a luminous weapon of Viṣṇu and Kṛṣṇa. It represents the cyclical nature of time. In temple architecture cakra is incorporated as a category called the Vesara - the circular temples.

Bindu (the dimensionless point) - it is associated with a drop which represents, both, stillness and fluidity. It is also a faculty of the mind. In temple architecture, bindu or madhyabindu or marma is the point in the structural plan from which everything is set out. Precision in establishing this vital centre is essential to a balanced structure.

Śūnya (the mathematical zero and the metaphysical void & fullness) - the metaphor of a still centre with concentric circles having objects in incessant movement is represented on a macro level by the sun and the planets in elliptical orbits. This dimension of astronomy finds a lot of expression in temple architecture as well. 

Pūrṇa (the infinite fullness) - all the metaphors, all life, all light and indeed all that we know, converge in pūrṇa. 
The Bṛhadāraṇyakopaniṣad talks about the fullness of the infinite thus:

ओं | पूर्णमदः पूर्णमिदं पूर्णात्पूर्णमुदच्यते । 
पूर्णस्य पूर्णमादाय पूर्णमेवावशिष्यते ॥

The architects (artistes) of our temples were well versed with Darśana. Hindu dharma is the real ‘democracy’ - the democracy of the spiritual, where everyone has an equal opportunity to attain Mokṣa.

[Pradeep Bhandari(प्रदीप भंडारी)🇮🇳 @pradip103]

20 June 1947 was not just another date in Bengal’s history—it was the day that shaped the destiny of millions.

As the Partition of India drew near, competing visions emerged for Bengal’s future.

While proposals for an undivided or independent Bengal were being discussed, Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee argued that the people of Western Bengal must have the right to remain within India.

On 20 June 1947, the Bengal Legislative Assembly voted on Bengal’s future. The representatives of western Bengal voted in favour of partition and joining the Constituent Assembly of India, paving the way for the creation of West Bengal.

Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee warned that a “Sovereign undivided Bengal will be a virtual Pakistan”, articulating his opposition to plans for an independent Bengal outside India.

From the Tarakeswar conference of April 1947 to the historic vote of 20 June 1947 and finally Independence on 15 August 1947, the journey of West Bengal was forged through political conviction, democratic action, and an unwavering commitment to India’s unity.

Paschimbanga Divas is a tribute to that historic struggle and to all those who helped secure West Bengal’s place in India.

@trramesh Sir beyond all the useless political battles fought on X, there is genuine merit and usefulness in hearing your thoughts and POV on many topics. Take breaks for your mental peace but never consider deactivating this most powerful platform Dharmics have a presence in. Thank you

[trramesh @trramesh]

I had deactivated my X account two days ago. I was not feeling elated with my daily feeding Hindus who, in general, do NOT care about their Temples and Dharma - with victory news from Court actions or about the violations of Dharma and Law by the instrumentalities of the Government and the infamous @tnhrcedept
I did not want to be in Twitter for some time.

But Yesterday and Today - Hon'ble Chief Minister Shri Joseph Vijay @CMOTamilnadu and his Hon'ble Minister for the Hindu Religious Department @RameshOffcl have given me - and the Temple Worshipping Hindus in Tamil Nadu - very good news and great expectations! I activated my Twitter account to share the good news!

In the Governor's address in the Assembly yesterday - the intentions of the Chief Minister
- (1) that Temple Funds would henceforth be used only for the pious purposes of temples and
(2) the past instances of mismanagement in @tnhrcedept would be corrected
--- came out very clearly! Very positive developments !!!

As a follow up today Government has issued two G.O.s and has cancelled 46 projects of commercial wedding halls and commercial complexes using Temple lands and funds - which were announced in the previous DMK regime

Only a handful of us who took this matters to Court and struggled for the past 5 years to save the funds of Temples know what a great development this is. Incidentally - exactly one year ago on 19.06.2025 I got a massive stay order on commercial constructions using temple funds from the Hon'ble 1st Bench of Madras High Court, which the @tnhrcedept did not care to obey under DMK regime.
With deep anguish I had prayed for the welfare of our temples yesterday in Sri Koodal Azhagar Temple and in Sri Meenakshi Sundareswarar Temple, Madurai - Gods have blessed us with good news. !!!

In my opinion it takes a great leader to do more and talk less. @CMOTamilnadu Shri Vijay is action oriented and we, Temple Worshipping Hindus, appreciate the positive steps taken by him.
Thank You Sir !

Hint: It will tell India it can help solve India's pollution problem and some naive Indians will believe it & share it.

This book was published in 1916 by Benaras Hindu University...
Not available now. All the copies got destroyed. One copy was available in the library of California University, which has been digitised by Microsoft. It is a beautiful introduction to Hinduism, without any school affiliations. It is especially suited to youth. You may go through at leisure. It has 304 pages and share it further with your known younger generation kids. This is a rare book on “Sanatana Dharma” - Please READ and share it to our youth group as much as possible... https://t.co/pKkRmqtP6d

Three Evil Facts About Mahatma Gandhi That Have Been Hidden From You Till Today

1.Mahatma Gandhi’s eldest son Harilal Gandhi converted from Hindu to Muslim in 1936.

2.Gandhi used to force young women and teenage girls to sleep with him to test his Brahmacharya. He even included his grandniece Mono in this.
And in the same experiment, small boys and girls in his ashram were forced to sleep and bathe together. This was called the Syllabus Experiment.

These shocking facts that were kept away from the public for so long.

[Saraswati Films @mmpandit]

See…. there are numerous powers in the Universe.
Now… one power is keeping everything in harmony and brings balance into the creation such that everyone can get on with their lives.
But another power is there which causes severe disruption and distress in lives of people.
Generally, the former Shakti (balance and harmony and happiness) predominates.
But what happens sometimes is a reasonable number of people will feel terrible about some deep injustice and there is a silent curse which emerges from their hearts. That thing if it is powerful enough, can completely obstruct the blessings of the power which is causing calm.
Then what happens is that the curses together form a powerful force which aligns with the power of destruction and disruption.
Then the country looks disrupted and not at peace with itself.
Why injustice to women causes these things? Because women identify very deeply with their bodies and so the pain inflicted on someone if it’s a bad injury can cause them to think of the perpetrators for a long long time. If enough women are affected by that problem, then the curse becomes a collective curse.
What’s the solution?
The thing is that justice must be served and it must be perceived to have been served. So those women must see justice served. Then the curse begins to wane.
If you look at political parties around the world and countries, you will see that collective curses destroyed so many countries…. it never fails.
Same thing holds true for individuals except a single woman of reasonable Shakti has potential to cause trouble to an individual… if they actually curse someone.
Curses and blessings. That’s all there is in the world… in the end.

Italy is also a democracy like India. Millions don't like and didn't vote PM Meloni in Italy.

Yet, when Trump recently made a silly remark about Meloni "begging to take pics with him", the whole country, including opposition, have stood behind her.

Nobody is mocking her using Trump's comments. Nobody is saying she has made Italy look weak. None in Italy is taking the side of Trump mocking their PM for some silly political gratification.
