I am one out of such thousands of Twitter users who finds True Indology ( @tiinexile ) to be the best available source of knowledge regarding India’s History. I decided to compile those 15 cases where True Indology has exposed fraud claims of Devdutt Pattanaik on Twitter. Case 1 Devdutt Pattanaik’s Claim :    True Indology’s Response:  "A woman is pure. Nothing about her is impure. Without her, no man would exist"- Kokashastra "Where women are revered, there the Gods rejoice"- Manusmriti Hinduism is the only extant religion that worships feminine as divine. I challenge you to produce a source for the statement Case 2 Devdutt Pattanaik's : Article - A classical language by devdutt pattanaik. Below screenshot is from that article True Indology’s Response:  In this article, Devdutt Pattanaik says that Prakrit came earlier than Sanskrit. I would have laughed at his ignorance, his utter lack of basic linguistic knowledge, and

Varna-sankara and Inter Caste Marriage.

Varna-Sankara and Inter Caste Marriage. Many people use this term without understanding its meaning, in this thread, I will try to explain what is Varna-Sankara and is it related to Inter Caste marriages. First, let's look at Manusmriti - Those born out of "Adultery", among "Same varna" or different Varna, those born out of "incest", or those born to people who have neglected their duties Are called "Varnasankaras" Manusmriti(10.24) See Medhatithi's comment- So according to this if a Brahmin does not perform the duties of a Brahmin then children born to them are also Varnasankaras. This also proves that Varna is indeed karma/quality-based and not Birth based because neglecting the duty of own Varna also makes children born to them as Varnasankaras. But how is it related to inter-caste marriage? In today's times "Caste" just represents a Varna system that got rigid with time, these Castes do not represent real Varnas which ar

UNBELIEVABLE CULTURAL APPROPRIATION | CULTURE DIGESTION

Cultural appropriation is ubiquitous in India, especially in southern states with its full potential. Christian missionaries are converting Hindus, malevolently, by subterfuge! This thread details few cunning moves by the Christians in Kerala and in other neighboring states. 1. In Kerala, the Bible is called "Sathya Veda pusthakan" means True Vedic textbook! It is quite unbecoming that the bible, the new testament, became a Vedic textbook during the the course of time😳. In the forthcoming sections, I will show various customs followed in our Hindu temples are copied by, just, replacing the Hindu symbols with the corresponding ones in Xtianity! The left panel is for Hindu customs and the right one is for the Xerox! 2. We have our "Bhagavad Geetha". Now copycats have "Kristu Bhagavad Geetha" written by D. Babu Paul. We have "Shri Maha Bhaagavatham" - known as Bhagavatha Maha Purana, which is one of our 18 great Puranas. They have "Kris

This book is a collection of Dr. Pandya's experiences with various kinds of patients and the difficulties government doctors often face in order to treat a patient. In this book, there are emotional roller roaster real incidences short stories. but there is a happy ending also. Some of my favorites dialogues from these stories are below. "Paisa to kabhi bhi aa jayega saahab, ladki nahi aayegi wapis" "Sir, you are discharging that patients against his will." "Justice, Justice and Justice, I want it". "Eat when you can, sleep when you can, and don't mess with the pancreas.  Provoked Pancreas = Poking tiger with a stick" I want to ask Dr. Pandya what had happened after he found out his wife is three months pregnant? There is also an interesting story about the cover page in this book. What happens when a penniless cook lands up at your doorstep with an infection in his leg? How would you feel if your actions led to someone from your profes

Sanskrit fever grips Germany: 14 universities teaching India's ancient language struggle to meet demand as students clamour for courses. - DailyMail,2015 According to a list of institutes offering Sanskrit made available at the University of Iowa in the US, many institutions in the US and Europe offer Sanskrit studies. Will Germans be the eventual custodians of Sanskrit, its rich heritage and culture? If the demand for Sanskrit and Indology courses in Germany is any indication, that’s what the future looks like. Unable to cope with the flood of applications from around the world, the South Asia Institute, University of Heidelberg, had to start a summer school in spoken Sanskrit in Switzerland, Italy, and - believe it or not - India too. “When we started it 15 years ago, we were almost ready to shut it after a couple of years. Instead, we had to increase strength and take the course to other European countries,” said Professor Dr. Axel Michaels, head of Classical Indology at the uni

Is Onam is Hindu Festival or Christian Festival ? is Onam celebrated in memory of the king Mahabali or Vamana Jayanti ?

-
Image
Regional bigots, Marxists & pseudo atheist anti-Hindu haters from a region declared that Onam is not Vamana Jayanti. But they are wrong. Onam is indeed Hindu Festival and Vama Jayanti. Bhagavata Purana(8.18.5) says Lord Vishnu took birth as Vamana on Shravana Dvadashi. This is exactly the time of Uthradom (Onam Eve). The Onam festival is celebrated for four days until Purnima. Even South Indian tradition agrees that Onam marks the birth of Lord Vishnu as Vamana Onam is a celebration of the birth and victory of Lord Vishnu as Vamana and returns of his devotee king Mahabali to earth. Mahabali comes back every year from sutala to see his land & celebrate Lord Vamana's birth at Vamana temple in Thrikkakara (="place of holy foot") in Kochi From ancient days,Onam was celebrated in Tamilakam (Tamilnadu-Kerala) not as a festival of Bali but as the birthday of "Asura destroying" Lord Vishnu. This is mentioned in ancient Sangam literature in a poem called Maturaik

Did you know? "Valentine's day" is named after Saint Valentine. He was a Christian bishop and a physician. He refused to treat his own fatally sick mother because she would not give up her belief in pagan God Jupiter and get baptized. The disease killed her!  According to the Catholic Chronicle Legenda Aurea (compiled in c. 1275 CE), Saint Valentine was described as a "destroyer of non-Christian pagan idols" Valentine was abusing Non-Christian Gods & creating communal conflict. He was jailed. Romans promised to release him if he toned down. "What is your opinion on (our) Gods Jupiter & Mercury"- they asked. ' "Wretched and foul men. Filthy. Carnal. Of filthy birth'-He answered Source: https://twitter.com/BharadwajSpeaks/status/1360809022916489219?s=20
