I wanted to post something that will get me cancelled but I decided against it.
However, please react like this is the most diabolical thing you’ve read and be super offended. Thank you.
@2Gaudadhipati Oh, this is what he said to me. Maybe he was simply describing the differences, not suggesting that they would offer Tulsi out of spite.
Had a Smartha brahmin friend in college who stayed at the Madhwa hostel in Shankarapura. Dude wouldn’t miss a single chance to tell me how “evil” Madhwas were.
It was always something like how Smarthas are good because they worship both Hara and Hari, how they’re more casteist towards other castes, how Madhwas supposedly put Tulasi on a Shivalinga just to piss off Smarthas because they supposedly use Bilva patre, and so on. He’d even eat dishes with mustard seeds and outside food on days the matha had banned them, just out of spite.
The funniest thing is, all that was supposed to make me dislike Madhwas. Instead, it just gave me a soft corner for them. 😭😭
