Busting This  Claim -  1) The picture is from Russia, 1955. NOT USA  2) The "enthusiastic spontaneous turnout" was NOT for Nehru. It was social workers day in Magnitogorsk.  3) Nehru was so "popular" in that Russia trip that he was mistaken for a personal chef. Because of his white headdress, Nehru was mistaken for a personal chef by Russians. Although most Russian men did not know who she really was, they shouted at Indira "Oh what a beautiful Turkey!" Indira did not know Russian and simply waved back at them.

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...

These are two famous Myths here which I will debunk in this thread. 1. Eklavya was discriminated against because of his caste Wrong there is no Caste issue in this story. Drona Specifically said he needed Students who possess good qualities. He did not take students who possessed bad qualities n Now let's see eklavya, he was actually covered with filth and was very dirty. Those who cannot maintain even basic hygiene can they responsibly use the weapons they possessed? शौच (Hygiene) was the first thing taught to a child at that time most basic, Lacking that meant he was not worthy of learning. He did learn in the forest and he misused that too by shooting arrows in the mouth of an innocent dog. As he was not worthy Drona asked for his thumb. Karna also was not discriminated against because of his Caste, Sutas used to study Vedas, Smritis, Puranas, etc at that time, they were not discriminated against. Mahabharat Shanti Parva- Also, Same Eklavya later attacked Dwarka and was defeated...

It is a MYTH that Karṇa was denied an education. The original Mahābhārata clearly says Karṇa was a pupil of Droṇa along with Pāṇḍavas & Kauravas.   It also says that as a pupil, Karṇa defied Arjuna out of Jealousy. That Arjuna became the foremost of Drona's pupils in archery Those asking me for "source" must read the Vyāsa Mahābhārata (Ādi Parva 1.142) instead of relying on TV serials and neo-folklore. Karna was of course a great warrior and nobody can deny it. In Mahabharata, Krishna himself praises Karna's bravery several times (especially in the beginning of Karna Parva). However, that doesn't mean he wasn't without faults. He is a complex character   Source:  It is a MYTH that Karṇa was denied education.

I am reading to my utter shock some claims on twitter that Paraśurāma was a medieval character interpolated into Epics & Puranas. This is especially surprising because Parashurama has Vedic roots. His name was Rama Jamadagnya and he was the composer of a Sukta of Rigveda Samhita According to Rgveda Sarvānukramaṇi, Rāma Jāmadagnya ( Rāma the son of Jamadagni) was composer of Rgveda Sukta ( Aprisukta) 10.110 of 11 verses in Triṣṭubh Chandas. It is as Rāma Jāmadagnya rather than "Paraśurāma" that he is primarily known in Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa & Mahābhārata Paraśurāma was a great Rishi. If he beheaded his mother, it was only because he was bound by the words of his father. The first boon he asked his father was the restoration of his mother's and brothers' lives and complete forgetfulness of the incident. That was his love for mother If Paraśurāma had opposed the words of his father, Jamadagni's anger would not have been appeased and he would have cursed Paraśurāma...

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...
