- Ours is a wonderful Culture, the Indic Culture, ancient, yet living, brilliant, profound, still, and always relevant. Yet we are pushed into this situation, where we are either unaware or in denial or in a dilemma about our cultural identity. What is the definition of Culture? What substantiates the cultural identity? How does our cultural identity survive encounters with foreign influxes? Let's delve into this wonderful presentation held at IIT KGP, where an illustrious panel of eminent speakers, will try to find answers to these questions.
In this eye-opening presentation, we aim to comprehensively trace the cultural identity from our Itihasa. The tradition of the Pilgrimage. How Sanatan theology accepts individual identities. Our cultural identity has survived encounters with foreign influxes. Yet, the secular doctrine of The Republic of India has been put forward as an anomaly into our society, which has created a dichotomy within the Hindu fold.

Currently reading Shri Jai sai deepak's India that is Bharat. As a bharatiya I promised myself to go through the Baptism of decoloniality. Before our lord The greatest of the Suryavanshi returns home in Ayodhya on January 22. May our Aradhya, Maryada purushottam kill ignorance from our mind and spirit through his divine Arrow. May the reign of The Scion of Ikshwaku guide us forever. Glory to Ramachandra 🕉️🕉️
@saikatbiswas127 It's Ikshwaku
Sanatan dharma doesn’t tell you the precise boundaries but allows you to find your own boundaries
It's very sad to see very few people are watching 😢
Agree with you
probably because this entire discussion is presented in a colonial language
@@musicworship4520for national reach, we have to depend on colonial language.
Brilliant discussion
Nice discussion
Highly intelligent and intellectual discussion to emulate , being the most relevant from the present national and international scienirio.
Space is given to anyone who wants to peruse their realisation
Kudos to the Sangam Talks for organising this program ,with very intelligent panelists.
I would love every subscriber to view this conversation ! And share with others to view for themselves as well !
❤ thank you for the great service to Bharatiyata 🎉
Really very enlightening panel discussion. It should get more promotion.
Great forum, love it. Issue of hostile/asuric identities, confused identities, and dharmic identities is my favourite topic. So much learned from the discussion.
Enlightening.
Thank you, Panelists.
Astravakra had said each person’s realisation & spiritual growth is not a defined one. Each one defines their own path. Whether thru rituals or devotional or Shakti etc all are left to one to find their path. Sanatana gives you that freedom.
Ami Ganatraji 🙏
Insightful ❤

Nupur J Sharma is correct, mallecha cultures like Islam mustn't be tolerated in any way.
A great discussion, however, please fix the sound quality so that younger generations will watch and learn.
Please do it our language too
Culture, tradition, culmination of belive-bharati sinking only after 2014.
All hindus united...time to open gurukul university for all hindus including brahmins and dalits to learn hindu vedas sitting side by side to become hindu priest or poojari in all temples, also needs to start inter caste marriages between brahmins and dalits to save our 500000 years old powerful pajeet calture 🎉🎉🎉
31:15 Moreover Duryodhan friends dancing after killing Abhimanyu in the chakravyuh is criticised heavily. No one defends anyone involved in this.
It is said that Ram was born in Ayodhya, played and jumped there, grew up, sent exile, when returned, he ruled there too. A temple was built to remember every moment of their life. Wherever it is played, there is Gulela temple. Wherever you study, there are Vashishtha temples. The temple is where you ruled by sitting. Sita's kitchen is wherever you eat. Where there is India, there is temple. Hanuman is a temple, Kop is a building. Sumitra is temple, Dashrath Bhavan. There are twenty temples, and they all have 400-500 years of age. This temple was built when Mughals or Muslims ruled over India.
Weird isn't it! How Muslims would have allowed these temples to be built! They are remembered for demolishing the temple. An entire city kept converting into temples while they were living and they did nothing! How Atatai were those who were giving land for temples! Perhaps those people are liars who say that where the Gulela temple was supposed to be built, the Muslim rulers gave the land. The document kept in the Digambar arena will also be wrong, which says Muslim kings gave 500 acres of land for the construction of temples. The talk of giving land of Nawab Sirajudaula for the innocent arena will not be true. Truth is just Babar and his Babri Masjid is built!
Now even basil seems wrong who were born around 1528. People say that in 1528 Babar destroyed Ram temple and built Babri Masjid. Tulsi must have seen or heard that. Babar was breaking Ram's birthplace and was writing Tulsi -- "Mang ke khaibo masit me soibo. "And then they wrote Ram Charit Manas. Will Tulsi not regret the collapse of Ram temple and Babri Masjid construction? Why not write somewhere?
Truth and lies have lost its meaning in Ayodhya. Muslims have been cultivating flowers there for five generations. Their flowers continued to climb on all temples, the gods in them and the Ram. Since when have Muslims been there in the profession of standing. Saints, sages, devotees of Ram, kept wearing Muslims made stands. The entire arrangement of Sundar Bhavan temple remained in the hands of a Muslim for four decades. Munnu Mian, who handled its command in 1949, remained its manager till 23 December 1992. When sometimes people are less and Munnu Miyan himself stands up to play the rock during Aarti, then will they be wondering what is the truth of Ayodhya and what is the lie?
786 is written on every brick of a temple built by Agarwal. King Hussain Ali Khan gave all the bricks for him. Who should be believed to be true? Were those Agarwal freaks who built temple? Was he Hussain Ali Khan crazy who was giving bricks for the temple? Whose hands are Hindu or Muslims who raise for prayers in this temple, it is not recognized, everyone comes. One number 786 made this temple for everyone. Is 6 December 1992 just true!
After 6 December 1992, the government took over most of the temples in Ayodhya. There got the locks down. Aarti has stopped. People have stopped coming and going. Will the gods and gods sitting behind closed doors curse those who were trying to touch Ram by climbing a dome? Heard that Hanuman temple or Sita kitchen will not smell the blood that was shed in the name of Ram in Ayodhya and India?
Ayodhya is the story of turning into a city issue.
Ayodhya is the story of the death of a culture.
(Note -- The above article is of Saroj Mishra ji. She is not on my friend list. If they were, I would have tagged them. This article has been shared by many friends. Heartfelt after reading this, and that's why I can't resist sharing it. )
in your mind hinduism started only 500 hundred years ago, stop paddling bullshit about that
The temples were demolished but every time it was rebuilt by people because the land belongs to that god
muslims didn't give land to build temples, they are just jagirdar of Delhi and rest is ruled by Hindus, we keep what is ours rightfully
Mughal rule is not absolute , uprising and sheer bravery of Hindus keep them alive
Recording should have been somewhat better for Mr. Saxena.
Why the audio quality is so poor...
Even Atheists are accepted in Sanatana dharma
Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force arrested two Hindu men on Wednesday for a social media post which threatened to bomb Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and blow up Ayodhya’s Ram temple in a blast.

If the idol created by any craftsman, no matter his caste, creed, color, race or religion can be 'purified' and installed inside a temple, I wonder why the same can't be done with humans who are routinely prohibited from entering such a temple?
Can u tell instances where they r not?
Almost all the Rishis who authored the Vedic literature are from tribal or fisherman or such communities. They themselves are the example that enlightenment is not taught in a school or by a certain community. But those who are enlightened are Brahman. So it's upon you to make efforts to reach this position. Nobody stops anyone who is a Sanadhani. I have climbed steep uphills in Jharkhand to sit at the pious place where the Jain Teerthankars, Gurunanak the Sikh Guru, in Rajgheer Bihar at the hill where Budha sat in meditation etc etc to know the truth as described in the Sanatan Dharma. So one has to make efforts rather than looking for pushing.
Copied from Vinod Chand...
Somebody has suggested that instead of one-nation, one-poll, etc. why not one-caste?
Lack of nuance in your personality is clearly visible !!!
I am an American and I am wondering why Dravidians and North Indians and such cannot possibly share India because God created you all equally and because God so loved the world John 3:16 there is no reason for hate or orejudice. Love thy neighbor is the secpmd highist Law. Love god is the Highest/

Who is this Mishra woman and what is her credentials to write such article to whitewash history of a religion's crimes across the world. Forget India for a moment, what happened to all places across the world where Islam entered? Have the native religions survived? Why not and what happened to the people and places of their pagan religion? They were wiped out and no traces are found of them now. Most of their religious identities were digested by abrahamic religions. So stop the crap of muslims donating land and how temples survived in Muslim rule. Temples were built repeatedly after their demolition by Hindus and that's why they survived. Big contrast is in south of India where the Islamic rule was not as extensive as in the north. Many temples survived and thrived. A pertinent question to useful idiots peddling secular narratives is how come most mosques in North India have pillars of destroyed parts of temples in them? Don't be a 🤡 and digest leftist whitewashing.
One more correction, it is not 'said' about Ram Ji's birth. Learn to take our God's name with respect. Every Hindu believes Ram ji was born in Ayodhya.
