i was in spain in 2018, went to granada and was amazed to see how proudly they display churches which were taken by muslims and converted into mosques only to be converted again into churches by the crusaders. Meanwhile in India we cant even talk about it without being called bhakts.
All over the world local history is told with pride. It's only India and the curse of Congress because of which we were always forced to be ashamed and feel as if we were weak.
Near 28:00 ma'am told about how religious leaders from different parts like Telangana, Orissa, etc. came to Mathura because there was always a concept of Bharatvarsh. And now these so called politicians are joining hands with the Crooked Man Rahul Gandhi saying "India is a union of states" Bharat was always 1 and will always remain 1. Congress succeeded once in partition, but won't be able to do it again.
@Alexios I Komnenos Yes that is correct. 'Foujdar' is a common surname among Jats living around Delhi, especially in the seat of the Jat kingdom of Bharatpur, where I am originally from.
It will be heart wrenching for any devout Hindu to know that these two grand shrines srirangam and Meenakshi temples remained shut for decades after Malik kafur invasion, until the vijayanagar queen Gangadevi having heard the story, personally led an army to free these towns from Islamist rulers and restored these temples, as chronicled by this highly accomplished queen in her literary work Maduravijayam. We are indeed blessed to have people of courage and integrity as our forefathers , else our holy land would have gone the Iran , Egypt way in the hands of barbarians. As mark of respect atleast every hindu should atleast instil pride in our culture among his family and children.
You completely ignored the fact that the barbarian invasions were successful because many of our rajas were weak. We are a feel-good society that never reflects on our mistakes. Taking pride in the achievements is not bad, but analysing the mistakes is way more important to avoid repetation.
I visited the sahastrabahu temple outside Gwalior fort in 2014. That was my first encounter with broken idols and abandoned temples due to barbarians. I was 14 YO then, I had no understanding of politics. To say the least I was a left conforming liberal. Yet my first reaction was "they did THIS to our temples". I was devasted as a kid. Obviously the temple was stunning even after all it has gone through.
I usually remain quite stoic hearing, reading most painful things. This time however I felt a deep sadness. No words. No responses. Just sheer painful sadness. Ordering her book to go through it myself page by page.
listening to this i could visualize the statue of Saraswati emerging from the mud..still covered in mud in parts....i could truly feel the soul within it...the stone felt so alive...so full of a soul....

My family's diety in Thoravi, Bijapur. The entire temple structure looks like a mosque with no idols when entered, but the worship of the deity happens under the ground. There's a small passage like a cave in a room that was once used as a storage room. The passage itself can be closed if needed. Now I am not sure why it was done so, coz there are two stories, one that the temple needed monetary support from the Islamic king, hence the priests disguised the temple as a mosque to receive the grant. The Islamic king was impressed and supported it financially. The second is that the temple was disguised as a mosque to prevent the Islamic ruler from destroying it, while idol worship happened under the ground. There's also a story that the idol itself was unearthed after the diety ordered so in a dream. I am not sure about the stories, but if someone could do more research, here's one such example.
Hi, I've stayed for a year in Goa and my grandest disappointment was the fact that the beautiful and legendary temples, including Taambdi Surla, are not talked about enough. Even my local Goan friends didn't talk about them. I don't know how can it be possible but Goa Tourism needs to include places of this sort, and talk about the Portuguese atrocities and Hindu revivalsim.
Majority of current generation have become such simps. We are ready to discard traditions and practices and want to question everything. Whereas our ancestors in medival times made supreme sacrifices to uphold dharma. Great session! Loved every topic you discussed
Kushal, there is a story of Maharaja Ganga Singh ji of Bikaner stepping in to save an important Devi mandir which was ordered by the Brits to be "removed" because it was in the way of Railway line laying. After intervention by the Maharaja the line was shifted around the temple.
Listening to the stories hidden old murti been found out reminds me of the temple in my mother's village near Varanasi . The story is that the Shivling in temple was discoverd by my mother great grandfather who excavated it after having a dream about it.

People from far and near travelling and sharing so much knowledge and culture. And yet half baked leaders say that we are not a nation just a unity of states!!!
From listening to Dr. Jain, it dawned on me that our ancestors could not fully comprehend the reasons behind Islamic wanton destruction because it is so contrary to human thought, decency and progress. Unfortunately, nothing has changed as we see Muslims defend the case for the Gyanvapi structure knowing full well that the structure was built on a demolished temple. You CANNOT wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep The solution begins with all of us identifying the problem. There never was, and can never be any Ganga-Jamuna sentiment.

How are you so bang on. Never thought of it this way. Out Kings and Queens could never comprehend how someone can be this barbaric like Islamic invaders. They treated the invaders like fellow humans, the kings and queens should have been brutal towards these invaders.
Brilliant episode. One comment on 53:30. The British should be understood in the context of Protestant Christianity morphing (eventually "secularizing") into capitalism. In other words, the Catholic and Islamic expansions are much more strongly based on theology (for instance Spanish destruction of native Mesoamerican temples are probably worst than Islamic destruction of local idols), whereas the Protestants had a "renewed" version of Christianity, and the focus was much more on civilizing Indians in the economic and political sense.
Ilavarasan Dandapandiyan ~ Please read Kautilya's (Chanakya Vishnu Gupta) Arthashastra. The protestants (or any branch/denomination of chrsitianity or judaism) could not/cannot/will not even get anywhere close to the civilization, economy, environmental issues, family structure, marriage, politics, war strategies AND mutual respect for all people of the world envisaged in that magnum opus.

Breaking of Idols is one of the greatest deed a Muslim could do.. Being Buutshikan is a badge of honor in Islam.. In India if an individual ruler may have desecrated temple of other sects it was an individual act by an evil ruler not a general sanction of Hinduism, Jainism or Bhudhism.

Why do we not come across stories of magnificent temples in Pakistan destroyed by invaders? Did they never exist or have we forgotten that part of our history so thoroughly that Gandhara now seems to be a foreign land?
when Pulakeshi and Harshavardhana fought and formed a treaty, they assumed the titles of Dakshinapatheshwara and Uthara Patheshwara. Meaning the rulers of Dakshina Patha, and Uthara Patha. Both were roads connecting India. They could have easily changed its name to something else, I mean they were kings who had conquered half of India each after all. Dravida Nadu Patha and Aryavartha Patha probably, and even assume the titles as such. But they followed the tradition, and culture, of Bharatha respecting it and keeping the title accordingly. And if you think that "oh, that's because they were established norms, and they just followed it for easy recollection of their names and titles", then why did Islamic rulers change the names of every city and road they conquered? Were they that foolish, to not spread their title and conquests across?

the thing is this is not just history, but the contemporary thinking as well against Hindus and Hinduism reinforced many times over by "modernity", as well as the post 1947 constitutional order, at least the way it has been implemented. the former manifests itself in the form of virtue signalling, the latter by the concept of "majority" and "minority", that minorities have to be protected from the majority i.e. muslims and Christians have to be protected from Hindus, when in fact it is the muslims and christians who have been doing all the attacking and vandalism and continue to do so even today. Also infinitely reinforced by the centralized power vested in the Indian State, which has taken over all aspects of our life, and is determined that it is "not Hindu". Not one of the numerous instances of resistance offered by Hindus was the outcome of any Central sanctions or permission. what would happened if they had had to take such permissions?
Yes that spark of sanatan dharma is already ignited and it is burning all so called fake seculars all over India. Anyway we have to find real meaning what he says.
Have to say this. The devotees of medivial period literally melts my heart completely
Because of them, we are surviving today. Salute to our ancestors!
Absolutely. They were unimaginably brave.
Indeed
That's why all we do related to dharma is what we have got from them !
Most of it is Influenced by them only
Whether Tulasidas or Surdas

Not one of the numerous instances of resistance offered by Hindus was the outcome of any Central sanctions or permission. what would happened if they had had to take such permissions?
