Hindu History of Gandhaar

Image
  Time changed, names changed, memories faded and monuments were demolished. Yet traces can be knitted together to narrate the glorious history of the land of Gandhaar and Jabul. Indian Subcontinent, a geographical descendant of Indus Saraswati civilization traces its oldest existence through great compilation and reference in four Ved. The Rig Veda earlier than any human imagination appears to refer to a period between 1500 BC to 3000 BC when river Kubha. Rig Ved refers to a city called Kubha along this river and thus the earliest reference of present day Afghanistan begins . Avesta another religious text of Zoroastrianism refers to a similar name Kubha and reference about its inhabitant. The word Afghanistan itself has a Sanskrit origin. In Sanskrit the word “Ashwa” means Horse. If this is suffixed with “Ghan” which means tribe or group, it completes into a word Ashwaghan. The meaning of this is “who is the Keeper of Horses”. The word “Stan” means place or land. Thus, the ori...

Astronomy & Mathematics: - Amazing Work by Sanatan Sages & Seers

Image
  Indian tradition of Mathematics and Astronomy is most amazing and least recalled and taught in India's education system. Courtesy Macaulay missionary academia, which ensured great work is erased and forgotten systematically. How was this possible? Gazing through the naked eye and through prolonged observation of nature and astronomical motion was the adopted methodology. Yes many would disagree. And It would certainly sound unbelievable to the generation who uses calculators for making small multiplication calculations.   It is our failure that these discoveries of Number system, Hindu decimal system, planetary motion and the other endless scientific discoveries have not been summarized for our generations. Who made it possible? All this work has been documented in great ancient Language Sanskrit, whose grammar was conceptualized by Panini. Panini (5 th  Century BC): - Sanskrit was a language in which all the narration of Hindu Sanatan Seers and Sages were do...

Nalanda University Burnt -1202 and Cambridge University founded – 1209

Image
  Few know University of Cambridge was founded and built around 1209 in England and University of Nalanda was burnt around 1202. And this sums up the story how a civilization declined and another aroused. It takes painful years to construct and a fraction of second to destroy. Idioms well narrated for University of Nalanda and Odantapuri in Bihar. Who destroyed and burnt these sheets of learning? Historians are more cunning politicians than politicians themselves. No one will tell you who the Invader were? Where did they come from? Why did they plunder and destroy? Instead they have been glorified in the History and Culture book. Railway Station, Road and Public Building have been named after them. A Society and a Nation cannot progress when its conscience and Soul is pledged. These apt sentences reveal everything that our politician and Historian concealed all these years. Bakhtiyar Khilzi a desert invader, an illiterate Turkish slave on the instruction of another s...

Places of Worship Act- 1991- Fraud with Article 14, 15, 19

Image
1991- Siege under weight of pseudo secularism and motivated agenda to appease the minority and to disrespect the Sanatan archaeology and religious places, an act was introduced by Home Minister S B Chawhan under the leadership of PM Narshimbha Rao of Congress in 1991 amidst the stiff resistance from opposition. The event in parliament ended with unceremonious passage of the bill and declaration of a Places of Worship Act -1991. This act took every right and glory of Sanatan civilization in India. Needless to say, the act was illegal, deplorable and an abuse on to the right of Sanatan Values. The legality of this act was standing on invalid ground and was under scrutiny even before it was introduced. As this law was related to places of pilgrimages or burial grounds, that pertains to the State List. But the Union government choose to use its residuary power under Union List to circumvent this invalidity and supersede the State rights and went ahead to enact this law. Objective of ...

How Demolishing a Temple is like destroying Hindu Civilization?

Image
When you demolish a temple, you demolish a civilization. It is a practiced and documented method of erasing and destroying institutions of Hindu faith. Unpalatable to the imagination of a passive and placid mind, but there is centuries of documented conspiracy of such distasteful hate.  Recently Hindu temples were demolished in Pakistan then in Bangladesh and then in Delhi (India) and in Coimbatore (India). Has it really stirred the conscience to the sleeping Hindu Society? I doubt it. Political institutions are silent. Cultural organizations are sold for dollars. The Judiciary is disinterested. Religious leaders are in self- glory.  Scholars are in self-denial. Ordinary masses are confused, anxious and aggrieved.    There is a pattern to it. Worldwide invading societies had adopted this practice. Look into history, when Christian missionaries invaded Africa and Latin America, they demolished every symbol of belief, practice of offerings. It was so brutal and savage,...

Charter of a Sanatani Hindu

Image
  Sanatani Hindu is a way of Life. It is a composite culture, a civilization and Perpetual (Sanatan) stream of truth. It is a belief originated and evolved into stream of knowledge. “Personification of God ” is one concept that only rests with Sanatan.  No belief system had ever claimed this. They all claim themselves to have messengers of God.  But for Hindu Sanatan- God is omnipresent in form (Saakar) and without Form (Nirakkar).   Open to change and ready to be examined is not a Blasphemous here. No belief system in the world can claim to be open to intellectual scrutiny. But Sanatan, Yes it is called here as “Shastrtha”. Sanatan promotes discussion, discourse, scrutiny and introspection. It is a Library. Ved means Knowledge. 4 Ved, 5 Up-Ved-Vedant, 18 Puran, 108 Upanishad, Brahman, Mimansa, Epic (Ramayan & Mahabharat) are intellectual repositories of its Great Philosophy. So God is said to be Omniscient here . If you are a believer (Theist), you are ...

Delayed, Yet Hindu must reclaim the legacy of Periyar.- Series 1

Image
Born as Hindu, died as Hindu, Fought against empowered Hindu and for the Impoverished Hindu. Yes, Periyar life can be summed up in one sentence. Periyar remained within Sanatan Hindu fold, and it should be accorded deserving importance. Periyar stood for and fought for socially impoverished class and the rights of untouchable class. And it certainly needed invincible guts and self-belief in those days around 1900 to raise voice. Infect, had he not offered his voice and vent for the disfranchised group among Sanatan Hindu, Hinduism would not have had the numerical strength left today. The disfranchised section would have been a sitting duck for conversion for missionary deceit and jihadi intimidation.  Let us examine one by One. 1)      Caste Discrimination: Periyar fount relentlessly. Who on earth can support a caste which has been illegally smuggled and institutionalized in the Hindu fold? There is not a single religious scripture in Sanatan philosophy ...
