And if you want to see how true Bharatiya Hindus in the north respected Tamil and sang it's glory and divinity even in 1987..
you should watch this scene from Ramanand Sagar's Hindi serial "Ramayan".
Lord Rama himself speaks the glory & divinity of the great Tamil.
@Ram_2468 Who are you tell descendent about their ancestors? Tamil Chera built great shiva, Vishnu and Bhagwati temples. Even Kalari is performed with the blessings of bhadrakali. Dravidiots have no claims over Chetas or on Tamils. They are Abrahamic missionary ploys.
@nagarjun__S Hanuman was born in Kishkindha which is Karnataka and he is more worshipped in North. One of the most sacred dham ( Rameswaram in TN) there are Jyotirlingas in south (Andhra and TN)
@knazjohn@sansbarrier Either you can be this or that. Don’t try to be both. Some days you claim to be true IVC defendants which is in north of India and other days you get offended when Murugan is born in north. 🤔
@A_n_b_e_S_i_vam@JosephWinmer Skanda is Karthikeyan alsoShanmugam (6 faced in Sanskrit ) similarly aarumugan (6 faced in Tamil is same Murugan.)Murugan is just broken pronunciation or Aarumugan like Kanan in Tamil for Krishnan.Stop doing mental gymnastic if a deity is called in some other name regionally.

@iAsura_ U can protest on American soy but it is false tht soy is estrogen loaded infact there is a compound that bind to est receptor in body & it is very weak to what body produces.Many cultures like Japan soya part of diet where men & women both eat it equally & doesn’t make u feminine
@Antara361@IndicHistory@maa_bhaishiiH Mitra is sun and we have ample festivals and temples Konark sun temple is one example. Martand temple in Kashimir so many likewise the worship didn’t stop but it became less mainstream Chat Pooja and Pongal has same roots of sun worship
@NBDwrites We see a lot of similarity between Tamil and Korean basic vocabulary like Amma appa similar how European language but when similar impressions are on European languages by Sanskrit that automatically becomes Sanskrit was bought by outsiders to India.

I was fourteen, walking home from school in Paris with my French-American friend. Summer was around the corner and the heat was relentless.
‘You must be used to this heat,’ she said.
‘Not really,’ I replied. ‘We lived in the hills in India before we came to Paris.’
‘Hills? I didn’t know India had hills.’
‘We have the Himalayas,” I had replied. ‘The highest mountains in the world.’
She stopped dead.
‘You’ve got to be kidding! The highest mountains are in America.’
That expression of absolute certainty is etched into my memory even today.
Twenty years later, when I met her again in New York, I reminded her of that conversation. We couldn’t stop ourselves from laughing.
So anyway that afternoon we went home, and I opened my Philips Atlas and showed her the Himalayas.
‘You know,’ she said thoughtfully, ‘ I’d always wondered about that weird name. I just assumed it was some Native American name.’
A few weeks later, in geography class, while studying the Alps, our teacher announced they were the highest mountains in the world.
My newly enlightened friend proudly corrected her.
‘Actually, the Himalayas are.’
The teacher shot me a look that instantly identified the culprit behind this inconvenient fact.
Then, without missing a beat, she recovered.
‘Yes… but the Himalayas are the newest highest mountains. The Alps were the oldest highest mountains.’
Case closed.
At fourteen, I learnt one of life’s great lessons: The West doesn’t just write history, geography, science. It often decides it.
If something is ancient, extraordinary or foundational, somehow it must have originated in Europe or at the very least be explained through a European lens.
The Rig Veda became “Aryan.” A Middle Eastern Jew named Jesus acquired blond hair and blue eyes.
Even Panini, at one point, seemed to belong to everyone except India.
Now, apparently, Panini is Pakistani.
Progress, I suppose.
From ‘ that’s impossible’ to ‘it was ours all along.’
The script changes. The narrator doesn’t.
