      Today saw Swatantra Veer Savarkar starring Randeep Hooda.
      PORTRAYAL OF TRUE BRAVE FREEDOM FIGHTER
      Terrific role by Randeep Hooda.
      I felt as if I am watching Veer Savarkar on big screen. Power in his eyes, his conviction, character portrayal, dialogue delivery, body language and the confident way he describes his ideology was phenomenal. Watched a brave biopic like this after a long time. Salute to Randeep Hooda. Everyone must go and watch this movie in theater.
      Movie describes whole journey of Veer Savarkar Ji from young age till the end. His contribution in freedom struggle of India 🇮🇳 was unimaginable and huge. He was sent to Kaala Paani Saza for nearly 15 years. He was brutally tortured over there and was treated in an inhumane manner.
      Dialogue delivery by Randeep bhai is just awesome. This movie consists of 5-6 scenes which will surely give you goosebumps.
      Must watch this movie with family

    I liked the mention of Snake Charmers. Actually, I used to have similar idea. I told long back to my children that if we are mocked by others, and they call us Snake Charmers, then you should reply saying that "its agreat talent to charm snakes, not veveryone is so tallented to tame them or be playful withthem. Our Shiv ji is master in Snake Charming!"

    I just want to say a time tested saying that Knowledge is Power and anyone who tries to reserve knowledge in any aspect are culprits and this is applicable to Hinduism too, if the scriptures reserve knowledge for a selected group of people then it is ment to be questioned, and if there's nothing like this that exists in the scriptures then who in the world would have trouble altogether.

    Bhakti is highest level of love and devotion in which we love one who we never met /seen and fully know that we wouldn't meet /see. In scientific and rationalizing it's totally looks illogical. But we see this Bhakti in each and every particle of universe how /why /purpose of electrons revolving around nucleus infinitely without moving away or falling into attraction. So to make common people understand value and importance of bhakti we have infinite God and goddess. Possibilities of endorsements are one Buddha in billions of human. Very remote possibilities. But not insignificant. Keep trying are only hopefulness..

    Look at the audacity of a reputed university to misappropriate one of the much revered spiritual institution of Bharat. Hindus need to be aware of these things and act. Sadly some Hindus in India are working with these "breaking India" forces helping them dismantle the revered spiritual institution. Now with the Carnatic Music fiasco headed by a famous musician has triggered negative press of a Shankaracharya of Kanchi. This negative press is in podcasts in Tamil. These podcasts are favoring this musician who is working with the left in India and the West who have similar interest in opposing Sanatana Dharma.

    Story Of a Father and a Son There is a father who is jealous, self-obsessed, self-centric and cruel. He threatens his believers and commands for the killing and looting of non-believers he curses, rejects, hates and discriminates others wishes to burn them in hell till eternity. Then comes the son who descends from heaven and who does not utter a word against the father or his doctrine of hatred, otherism, jealousy and cruelty rather he reaffirms to be the son the heir of father who has come to establish the kingdom of father. He has been sent because the father loves the people of Israel and he wants them to serve the father and his kingdom and in return go to heaven. Wonder why he is rejected by the people of fathers kingdom why the people of Israel do not believe him to be the son the true heir of fathers kingdom. The son is punished and killed by the father’s own people because they do not believe in his claims. His followers are taught to hate the disbelievers the polytheists and seek to destroy them but then they also lecture the same very people to love and forgive their enemy for they say that Jesus sought mercy for those who killed him, but then they also continue with their chorus to curse, reject, hate, discriminate and annihilate the non belivers who do not accept the father or the son. In the name of the father and Son the world sees looting, plundering, raping, killing, destruction, burning of libraries, annihilation and genocide of civilizations and cultures in the name of love, mercy and the kingdom…. First those who believed in the father but rejected the Son murdered the believers of father and Son and then it was those who believed in the Father and Son murdered those who believed in father but rejected the the Son and also those who did not believe in either of them are completely annihilated

    Christian origin of Slavery and casteism
    Christian origins of Serfdom and Slavery Noah the patriarch of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Noah became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth at the age of 500 years. Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father Noah while he laid drunk and naked in his tent and he told it to his two brothers who cover up their father. Noah awoke from his wine, and knew that his youngest son had seen him naked. And he said, Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. (For His own mistake and mistake of His Son he curses the children of Ham to be slaves of Shem and his future generations.
    And he said,
    Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem;
    And let Canaan be his servant.
    God enlarge Japheth,
    And let him dwell in the tents of Shem;
    And let Canaan be his servant.
