You clearly have comprehension issues. Read again. Let me dumb it down for you.
Doing abhishekam of Vishnu on Shivratri isn’t wrong, it’s just not the most potent worship for that night. Similarly, invoking Tara on Diwali, Buddhist or Hindu tantric, is perfectly valid, provided she is properly consecrated and invoked. Both can bestow Lakshmi tattva.
Lakshmi, Saraswati and the rest are not just singular personalities. They are tattvas, elemental energies, and they manifest through multiple forms.
Your real problem is that you can’t digest the fact that Vajrayana Buddhism worships the same deities we do. That discomfort comes from hate and ignorance, not scripture.
And since you brought up the Buddha: some of our own texts count him as an avatar of Vishnu. So your abhishek on his statue would still be worship of Vishnu. Your own example just proved my point. And even if you discount him as an avatara - He was still a great yogi and enlightened just like our Vedic Rishis and siddhas
Consecration is not some arbitrary act of slapping an energy onto any random form. Read your own texts before lecturing others.
Deities exist, and they can be invoked in multiple forms. Saraswati herself appears as Nila Saraswati and as Matangi in Hindu Tantra. Vajrayana follows the exact same logic. These are not imaginary deities. They are virtually the same deities as ours, invoked through a different methodology. They don’t belong only to Hindus or only to Buddhists. They are available to whoever sincerely seeks them. And every one of them originated on this land.
If he worships Mother Mary as Lakshmi next year, come back and call me a joker. Until then, sit down.
And the next time you want a civil dialogue, learn some manners first. Otherwise, ignore me, you nincompoop.
Hindus on x has become so rigid space. We treat our rituals as gospel, almost fanatically.
Lakshmi tattva manifests in many forms. Even Baglamukhi, a fierce deity, can bestow Lakshmi tattva, the prosperity we seek today. In fact, many people worship Kali on Diwali night. That is the nature of this night.
Consecration isn’t arbitrary. You cannot take a form from an entirely separate tradition, like Jesus, and consecrate it as Krishna. If that happens, criticism makes sense. But Tara is not foreign to us. Mahayana and Tantric Buddhism grew from the same soil as Hindu Tantra. Tara is the second of our Mahavidyas, Ganesha, Saraswati and Mahakala are revered in Vajrayana, and Buddhists even have their own goddess of wealth, Vasudhara. In terms of deities and energies, the overlap is enormous. Opposing this shared heritage is simply illogical.
Worshipping White, Blue or Green Tara, or Tara the Mahavidya, on Diwali night does not make you any less a Hindu. On this night, all deities and energies are freely accessible.
@rishibagree I am tired of this idiot’s “ they stay silent “ on every critic of national issue.. you stupid fuck ; your own children are dying in a gas chamber . Wake up and grow some spine! Implore your leaders
I have said this many times before. America is no longer what it used to be.
India trusted Trump and his cronies, Musk included, for far too long before their true colours showed.
Trump would not be President today without Elon Musk’s money and his personal campaign on Twitter.
Musk spent close to $290 million and then claimed the election could not have been won without him. That influence was real.
When the relationship with Trump soured, Musk posted that Trump is in the Epstein files and that this was why they had not been released. What kind of person makes someone President while knowing what those files contain?
Musk is a great technocrat and entrepreneur.
That does not excuse this.
Is “Dear Prime Minister Ambani” how you address the world’s largest democracy and a sovereign nation?
He accuses Ambani of being an oligarch. By that standard, Musk is one too.
Which party we support or oppose does not matter. In a democracy we all have our preferences. When it comes to Indian sovereignty, we are one nation.
America wants India to follow its tantrums. Obey, and do not argue.
It does not like India having an independent view or strategy.
India wants to be treated as an equal.
America wants India as a vassal.
That is why the elites in the American state have turned hostile towards India.
They already regret how far China has risen. They do not want India to reach that point.
In the coming years America will do what it can to harm India’s interests.
We need to face this together as a nation. Very tough times ahead.
