In the Holakādhikaraṇa (1.3.8) of Purva Mimamsa commentators such as Shabara Swami and Kumarila Bhatta describe Holāka as a practice of the eastern peoples (prācya-deśīya-ācāra). With migration and publicity , it gradually became a pan-Indian festival.
Happy Holi

The enemies of talent often repeat the lines that “Brahmins enjoyed reservation for 5000 years” — to excuse their own lack of excellence.
But the truth is far more contrary.
Traditional reservation ensured that only the most capable from each group carried out their ordained roles—whether a Brahmana teaching or a Kshatriya ruling—whereas today’s system often elevates underqualified candidates into roles they are neither prepared nor suited for.
Inviting a leader in your country and talking to him with disrespect is not the cultural value of Indians; even at wars our people have shown respect. Indian SM clout chasers always need a figure to look upon and talk about to keep their insignificant lives seeming relatable.
स्वभावतो भवेन्माता पुत्रेऽतिकरुणावती ।
तेन भक्तौ कृतायां तु वक्तव्यं किं ततः परम् ॥
The Mother is naturally very merciful to her child. If one worships her with devotion, then what can be said about him.

@PunchTantrum यदि श्रीअरविन्द अथवा हजारीजीके ही द्वारा रचित है तब तो उसे शम्बूकवध इत्यादिके विषयमें प्रमाणरूपसे उद्धृत नहीं किया जा सकता। स्पष्टरूपसे ही विवादास्पद प्रश्नोंसे पीछा छुड़ानेकी काल्पनिककथा प्रतीत हो रही है।
अपराधं परं कृत्वा देवीभक्तस्य को जनः ।
सुखं लभेत यदपि भवेत् त्राता शिवः स्वयम् ॥

Who can be happy in this world if they have committed a crime against a Bhakta of the Devī? They can’t be saved even
after having Śiva as their Protector.
From history, women should learn their essential role in family and society, their duties and boundaries , but all they are taking from history is that women used to wear skirts in the past, Britishers invented blouses, women used to study vedas and this list goes funny lengths.
