06:57 There is not a single case recorded of forced Sati-Pratha in Bharat before you Britishers arrived... satis were a spiritually high women in the society and those women were considered as goddess of society. how can you forget to mention about Witch Hunt which was widely practiced in whole Europe & you were warning the girls and women of your Society on the name of a Witch Hunt... Britishers recorded nearly 5,000 to 6,000 cases from India of Sati-Pratha & more than 5,000 cases were recorded from West Bengal.... West Bengal was under rule of East India Company but how can you forget to mention about more than 50,000 women were burned alive only in Germany forget about rest of the Europe and everything was supported by churches and it was widely practiced in whole Europe in 18th century but nobody can speak about it in the Rigveda there is the famous funeral hymn and that has been used by critics of Hinduism to say Sati was made mandatory and obligatory from Vedic times but what does this "Funeral Hymn" say...? इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पिषा संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु जनयोयोनिमग्रे || (RV 10.18.7) This funeral Hymn addresses a widow it tells her that sit next to the dead body of the man moisten your eyes with ghee and then get up and resume your place in the World. now it's interesting that the word "Agre" is earlier was replaced by the word "Agneh" that is fire... "Orginal Shloka" इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पिषा संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु "जनयोयोनिमग्रे"|| (RV 10.18.7) "Edited by British" इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पि संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु "जनयोयोनिमग्ने" || (RV 10.18.7) so when did this take place..? was it deliberately done...? to convey an impression that Hindu Religious scriptures made it obligatory for a woman to commit Sati... Ramayan Burst False Narrative about presence of Sati-Pratha in ancient times... it's very clear in the Ramayan that none of the widows of Raja Dashrath Immolates, nor does any Widow of Ravana Immolates. so in the Ramayan it is very clear that there is no instance of Sati in the family of Dashrath or Ravan's Family
Alan turing was the computer scientist who solved the enigma code which helped the allies defeat the germans in world war 2. Check out the movie imitation game. He was gay and was imprisoned for sometime because of the colonial era british law section 377 in the penal code (which is still in vogue in india basically we inherited the british penal code) which made all unnatural sex acts criminal.
As per mythology/legends of old : Sati was daughter of Prajapati Daksh and first wife of Shiva. Daksha organized a Yajna but didn't invite Shiva because he didn't like him. Sati took offense to it- she went there and jumped in the alter of fire made to perform yajna. Story goes on how Lord Shiva got angry when he learned about her death. Somehow Lord Vishnu was able to calm him down. Later Sati is said to have reincarnated as Parvati- that's where the word Sati comes from. There are a few of incidents mentioned in Mahabharat where a woman accompanied her dead husband in to funeral pyre. But it was not regular. Now during medieval period Rajput women from warrior families, started committing self immolation to avoid enslavement, kidnapping and rapes at the hands of invaders more regularly. - three incident of mass suicide in Chittor alone. Muslim historians used word Jauhar for the act. But these women themselves were equated with 'Sati' and thus the word became common for such women and then the custom itself was named Sati by the time of British and since. It became a bigger problem in later years. While the medieval royal women may have more solid reason to choose death relatively, later on it turned in to a more common custom in many Rajput families just to prove own virtue and spread in other other higher castes, especially among Bramins. It became a short cut to glorify oneself in a round about way if a widow in the family was seen so virtuous to follow husband in death. It also meant not having to take care of her financially as a widow had life interest in a joint family or could inherit husband's property in divided one. Thus the exploitation. Theoretically it must have been widow's choice but if in-laws wanted her out of picture they would force her somehow anyway. During British period some Indian reformists stated the movement to abolish this custom and British helped by making laws against it.
Sati (Godess) never jumped in alter of fire(yajna). Sati Practice which is followed in india ,for widow was later created purposely and as nothing to do with old stories. Many people link it to sati and daksh scenario, which is wrong. While in the case of sati(goddess) .she was not a widow.Mahadev never died. Even firegod(agni dev) also get his source of fire from godess adi parashakti(sati was one of the incarnation of Aadi parashakti) . It is said that even firegod can not burn sati, bcaz she is goddess. Shakti represent nature.All the fire, water god energy are depend on her energy. Shakti is pure energy. Sati uses her own energy to burn her previous body(which is in human form) , bcaz she doesn't want to live as daughter of daksh,and reincarnated as Parvati in next incarnation. Doesn't understand why people linked it to godess sati. Important thing no one forced Godess sati to do that. infact godess sati was not even widow,she was married. These rituals has nothing to do with goddess sati and daksh. People purposely used goddess sati named for this stupid rituals, jst to defame goddess. Even before british, Bharat(India) as always, invaded by too many outsiders people by many times. Invaders have always used their mind to defame other beliefs, religion and created many such rituals, which was never present in ancient Bharat. Many invaders even tried to destroy previous culture, temples of jain, buddhist, hindus and tried to convert people. Many of them misinterpreted the real stories of jain, buddhist and hindus religions same info has misleaded in generation of thousand yrs and people even started to follow this things by calling them rituals (in the society) in the name of religion. Talking about mahabharat and even Ramayana also has different version and book, from different parts in india and even other countries. Many of them does not have exact stories as it was happened in the thousand of yrs ago.
Sati is a practice women engaged in involving self-immolation upon the death of the husband. At first it must have been a voluntary wartime practice so the women could avoid being raped by an invading army if their husband died. Its contextual origin was misunderstood by subsequent generations and instead of being applied only in wartime to avoid rape you found women being forced into it when there was really no need. The gay guy they're refering to is the one who deciphered the Nazi radio encryption code and allowed the British to monitor Nazi communications. I believe there's a movie in which Benedict Cumberbatch plays him.
The Sati phase was when if the husband died then people believed that there is no point of the wife living because husband was the ultimate person of the household so they thought her life would end with the husband’s and that they would burn widows with the body of the husband against their will.
Sati was an ancient practice where the widow women jump into their husband's cremation fire. It must be thousands of year old practice during the time where the death of men happened usually in battles as soldiers. on those days the widow women were brutally misused by the conquered army. So its a kind of suicide. How does that sound, good? ha ha
Serving it Cold It is always fascinating to see how Hindus always find ways to put the blame on Muslims in India. Sati was a regressive religious tradition practiced by the Hindus in India till the early 1900's which was outlawed by the Britishers.
No, not on muslims in India. Never on muslims in India - afterall, most of them were forcefully converted or accepted Islam to avoid giving taxes. The blame is on MUGHAL invaders. They were the ones who forced us to perform acts like "sati" and "jauhar" inorder to escape brutality of being enslaved by them and raped by them and losing ones dignity - much more valuable than life.
Actually the practice of sati continued in many parts of India until it was banned in 1829 which is not so long ago. Also the widow did not always willingly jump into the husband's pyre. It was probably most horrific in Bengal, where the widow was literally forced to burn in her husband's pyre.
@@KOOOLICE there were many women who did jauhaer during the rule of mughal empire specially in rajasthan, no one is blaming modern day muslims but your soft corner for mughals like aurangzeb and allaudin khilji is the reason noone trusts you either [not all]. Sati was done first by the women whose husbands were killed in war which was jauhar but after that it became regressive and brutal and no one is blaming muslims for that. Atleast it ended not like triple talak which was till now in 21st century is practised by people and some people saying it is okay.
Rauf Lala is a Pakistani comedian. The jibe about salt was about Dandi March - Salt was heavily taxed and so Gandhiji led an open defiance to make salt from sea water. At the stroke of the midnight hour - Independence day speech by Jawaharlal Nehru And the end was about Alan Turing, the Computer Scientist who cracked the enigma code.
Do you know that when British had just come to india the rupee to sterling( then the currency of UK) was 120 to 1. Ans when they left it was 1 to 100 This was the kind if economic exploitation the british had done
Sati was a practice where a woman would have to jump into the funeral pyre of her dead husband (once he died, obviously). That's why they said the widow was the fuel to the fire. This was abolished by Raja Ram Mohan Roy with the help of the British William Bentick.
Also Indians were transported as indentured labourers by the Brirish Empire all over the Pacific and Caribbean. Indentured labour was just another version of slavery. They’re not talking about Jamaicans.
Actually i sometimes feel bad for foreigners reacting to this cause they think the part where india speaks on mic is serious.. its not.. thats the funniest part.. everything he said india will do after independence hasn’t been done.. that was completely sarcastic. It shows india is not perfect either
Sati is a practice where widows eneter the funeral pyre along with their dead husbands and immolate themselves. Rauf lala was a pakistani comedian who was very famous in india too. Some of the jokes were very subtle, like when the britisher walks in finds that the indian is before time. It is referencing the general tardiness of the people in india.! For eg. If it says the event starts at 7 pm in india you can safely assume it will start around 7.30 pm - 7.45 pm. It was taking a dig at that. The british rule of india was pretty ruthless, now in hindsight we do comedy about it, but at that time it was really bad.
Sati phase: A practice in India in which a widow was burnt alive in the cremation fire of her dead husband. This practice was a culmination of similar ancient practice prevalent mainly in the 'kshatriyas' or the warrior communities where after defeat of one community, the widows of the warriors used to sacrifice themselves fearing rape and oppression from the enemy invaders who had defeated their kin's community. Over time the practice got entrenched into the societal values of the geographical region of India and was twisted by superstitious groups into a tradition called the sati. Perhaps 'Sati' was the name of the first woman to have scrificed herself hence the name. But I might be wrong about sati being 1st sacrifice though.
2:37 "I am guessing this was Jamaica" - Jamaica was one Island in the Caribbean also known as the West Indies that received Indentured Servants from India, other Islands received small batches however Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago and Suriname recieved the largest population of Indian Indentured Servants.
Lawrence of Arabia?! They’re talking about Alan Turing. Alan was a gay man who was a code breaker in WW2. He helped save over 14 million people and shortened the war by 2 years. He was tried and sentenced to prison for homosexuality after WW2 as it was illegal then, despite having been instrumental in helping win the war.
Sati was the ghastly Indian ritual where a woman would burn herself on her husband's funeral pyre. Britain helped us abolish that, along with some Indian leaders.
Mojjo M You got your historical facts wrong. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, with the help of the British, worked to abolish Sati system. Indians couldn't have done it without the help of the British.
Mojjo M your facts are wrong unfortunately.. It was bengali leader Raja Ram mohan Roy who abolished it and british helped him.. and made awareness against the ritual.. Leaders like Iswarchandra Vidyasagar also supported him..
Indian ritual.. R u mad.. a country with millions of rituals where not two neighbors practice the same ritual..... Don't generalize things... Please do a sensible talk you are representing your views on your country.... Sati was practiced in very few parts of india... Don't generalize by saying it was an indian ritual not all people of India did it..
They wernt referring to lawrence of arabia they were referrering to alan turing the man who invented the first computer to crack the german enigma code to find out where the next german attack would be and win one of the most significant battles in ww2. He also happened to be gay, there was an awesome movie about him played by benedict cumberbatch
Sati. the practice of sati has gone through an evolution. (its long but if you really want to know) earliest idea of sati was. when a husband died the wife used to lay beside the husband's body that was on a pyre. A ritual used to be done and then she would "GET UP AND WALK AWAY" and she could marry again if she wanted to. It was symbolic way to say your relationship with your husband ends now over as ur husbands body is burnt. i am talking 1000BC. Scriptural Proof of the ritual: The ancient and sacred Atharvaveda, one of the four Vedas, believed to have been composed around 1000 BCE, describes a funerary ritual where the widow lies down by her deceased husband, but is then asked to descend, to enjoy the blessings from the children and wealth left to her. Claims about the mention of sati in Rig Veda. उदीर्ष्व नार्यभि जीवलोकं गतासुमेतमुप शेष एहि | हस्तग्राभस्य दिधिषोस्तवेदं पत्युर्जनित्वमभि सम्बभूथ || (RV 10.18.8) Rise, "come unto the world of life", O woman - come, he is lifeless by whose side thou liest. Wifehood with this thy husband was thy portion, who took thy hand and wooed thee as a lover (wiki) in fact, if you go far enough you will realize it was an Indo-European practices. the Andronovo cultures 1800-1400 BC used to bury their women along with their husbands. there were many graves found where a man and a woman's bodies were buried together. The practice was never strictly observed and was symbolic most of the times. There were also ancient Greek and some Gremanic tribes who performed this. also, Thracians in southeast Europe, and some tribes of Tonga and Fiji islands. Since we all stem from a commons source (indo-europeans), its interesting to see how customs and practices evolve. It's also interesting to note, the many wives of these aristocracies used to fight to die along with their husbands. 400AD: Then it became a ritual in 'some' parts of India. All of India never followed sati. from some documented sources it was done by some clans in the west and east. to say every Hindu woman did that would be preposterous. The prestige of family also gave a boost to this practice. so a family could say, look how devoted she was to her husband, she performed sati. haah such a devoted perfect wife. and hence it became forced in many cases. Keep in mind it was only meant for Aristocracy not regular people. then we come to 1300 AD. here it gets complicated. people started confusing Sati and Juhar. Juhar was done by the royalty and her maidens and most women, so that they would not fall into the hands of muslims and get raped or be slaves etc. British period. the British didn't care much about sati. it was only when hindu reformers started a movement and went to the British to sign on a law abolishing sati that it became illegal. If they cared about sati they would have done it much earlier.
Rouf lala is the co villian of a famous movie Agneepath in 90's. It's remake is made recently. As like everyone I will request you to react to Dr. Sashi Tharoor's speech at Oxford uni. It's really informative and good. Killing people while they are doing a peaceful protest is reference from Jallianwala Bagh Massacare. In which hundreds of children, woman and man were brutally murdered in an open fire.
Firstly , thanks for considering the suggestion. Secondly , just for your understanding .... the monologue was actually a satire . All that he mentioned in the speech is actually happening in INDIA right now. Anyways .... checkout "the timeliners" , "girliyapa" and other TVF videos and keep up your great work !
+Chandan vines :-O we definitely understand that it was satire, this is why we were laughing. We may have not understood every single line of dialogue, but we definitely understood the overall concept of the videos. We are going to check out TVF soon.
That diamond is Kohinoor. Britishers took it away from India and now it's set on the front of the Queen's Crown. Lot's of disputes are associated with it's ownership.
@10:20, Sati was an ancient tradition of India, where after the death of the Husband, the wife had to burn herself down in the burning grave of her man. Now its seems ridiculous but not long ago it was the part of Hindu tradition. When brirish arrived with Armour and suited clothes, Indian women were self imolated. F.Y.I No one was forced to, they would devote themselve to not live after their husbands death. In case someome would deny it, none were physically punished, but rather socially evicted. They had to live a solitaire life or had rights to mistress. Yet British governments cruelty during indian famine, salvery, proxy wars, 300% tax imposition etc could not hide from the good deeds like abolition of sati system and child married, industrialization etc. Thank You
Mauritius Fiji Suriname Trinidad Guyana etc Mauritius even has majority Indian population (70%) many Surinamese are now settled in Netherlands and constitute largest Indian diaspora in Europe Fiji Guyana Trinidad have substantial Indian population of course their ancestors had gone to all these countries as slaves but they helped in building all these countries from scratch
Hello Daniel and Gian. At 5:16 in the video, the speech given by that guy might seem like he is praising India and dissing out the British, but actually, those are very sarcastic remarks on several controversies which our present Indian government has been involved with. The "insecure regime" mentioned at 6:02 is actually directed towards our present government. If you want to see more of their political sketches, then do check out AIB : Demonetization Circus. You see, AIB has always been a very vocal critic of the unfair government policies. Many people consider them to be left wing supporters or anti-BJP (BJP is the ruling political party in India at present, usually known for their orthodox religious ideology), but actually AIB has dissed every political party which has been in power. They have made fun of Congress (another major political party in India), in their video titled "The day Congress resigned" and "AIB: BJP vs Congress". They also made a parody video on the founder of AAP(a fairly new, but popular political party in India) named, "AIB : Nayak 2". Also, apart from making comedy sketches, AIB has actively helped in several social media campaigns, for eg : achieving Net Neutrality in India. They kept spreading awareness regarding Net Neutrality on social media, when Facebook partnered with Reliance to fool people into getting free Internet while eventually aiming to monopolize it. This eventually led to the establishment of Net Neutrality in India. Also, AIB is very good at hiding secret messages, puns and sarcastic remarks in their videos. Since, you are Americans, so its only natural that you would miss most of them. Apart from that, I really love your reactions. Keep doing the good job. :)
these guys hit nearly perfect modern reflections of what people think, they hate when left goes too extreme pandering minorities that people just see them as Right wing of minorities ...they hate right with extremist self destructive attitude and the tension they create in society just for sake of votes
This was a good one. Dan n Gian, make sure u react to Sashi Tharoor's speech at Oxford Univ, Cambridge, which will give u context, a deeper insight into the history between the british n india, that is not taught in western history. This is really important for westners to know and we would really appreciate a reaction from u on that
Okay, now all the reaction videos on youtube seem to be biased towards Indians. All the time, Indians are on the receiving end of these reactions. So, every person who reads this comment should pledge to create reaction videos of US, UK and every other developed country's popular videos and get a million views from the people of those countries. It is sad that people from other countries still do not know how Indians react. Let us spread the love! Peace!! (I am sorry if you have already read this comment in another reaction video. I am trying to spread the love! Please spread this message if you feel bad about the people of other countries who are yearning for reaction videos from Indians. Thanks!)
I just cringed to death when I heard you guys say "Lawrence of Arabia". It was Alan Turing who won them the war by cracking the German Enigma COde. But they chemically castrated him for being gay and he eventually committed suicide. Time to hit the history books, boys! this is embarrassing!
Way back during the British Raj/rule, Indians were transported to the Carribeans and other British colonies as slaves. If you have thorough knowledge of Indian history you will be able to understand this video better.
Hi I am your new subscriber I like your Reaction videos Keep it coming ! you guys are wonderful ! and 1 question which editing tool you use to make that small screen inside screen ?
Others have covered most of what you guys missed, but here are a few other references. Right at the beginning, just before "Echo...echo...echo", the narrator starts saying "Unnis Sau (nineteen hundred) 'errr..."Forty Seven", like he forgot how to say 47 in Hindi (saintaaliss). Lagaan poster says "Lagaan #Never Forget". The poster of the queen says Roop Ki Rani" (Queen of money) and the one of her husband says "Goron Ka Raja" (white people's king). The "There Are No Indians in Restaurant" is in reference to "No Indians and No Dogs Allowed" signs in front of restaurants for whites only under the British (Of course there were plenty of Indian workers in the kitchen and on the Wait staff). The train refers to the British bragging that they at least gave India a railroad before they left. They in fact built it to move troops around the country quickly to quell insurrection and to haul out Indian goods to ports so they could sell the goods and pocket the money. The "proxy wars: India sent 1.5 million vaulanteer soldiers foe WWI (largest volunteer army in the world at the time) and 2.5 million in WWII (new record). The black and white speech portion speech is in reference to the speech Nehru (India's first Prime Minister) gave on 12:01 AM, Aug. 15, 1947, India's Independence Day (one of the stupidest questions I've been asked: "Do they celebrate 4th of July in India). ruclips.net/video/Uj4TfcELODM/видео.html
Sathi was a practice in India where when husband dies his wife has to jump and die into his funeral pyre. This was abolished by Rajaramohan Roy with the help of a British general.
the gay guy they were addressing is alan turing who played a vital role in british victory in second world war. Check out the movie the imitation game based on the autobiography of alan.
Well here you go, I'll give it a shot..try and explain some of the jokes that people outside India may not get or even many Indians.. When the British guy says, what if they were peacefully protesting the suspension of civil rights, can we shoot them??, It is about an actual event, The Jalianwala Bhag Massacre, where hundreds of peaceful protesters were shot in a garden with only one exit. The girl that Pakistan chases after is Malala. The speech in the middle where he gets up and says, Enough I will not be like you, I will not divide based on ethnicity, color of the skin, I will not muzzle the media, jail students, or shoot our own civilians etc etc., is mocking Indians ourselves because all of those things eventually did happen after Independence, and the Speech itself is a direct reference to a famous speech called Tryst with Destiny made by India's first prime minister made on the day of our Independence. Again with the salt, always with the salt refers to something called Salt Satyagraha or Dhandi March. Basically Indians were not allowed to manufacture anything pre independence and as a form of protest Gandhi and thousands of freedom fighters marched to a place called Dhandi and made salt. Back then, even such basic rights were made illegal to Indians. When he says Sati, and widows don't make good fuel. It refers to a barbaric Indian custom called Sati. In many parts of India where when a husband died, the widow also supposedly jumped into the funeral pyre to kill themselves supposedly to show her loyalty, but then when most widows didn't want to kill themselves after their husband's death, thousands were forcefully killed by throwing them into the fire. This practice was abolished by the British. The gay guy jailed for saving the world refers to Alan Turing who broke the enigma code which made the allies win WWII. When he says please call me Raj. Raj is a common Indian name used in many Bollywood movies, but the word also means regime in Hindi. The British occupation was also called the British Raj or simply the Raj, hence the use here. I think everything else from the video most people have understood.
Sati phase came when the Widows were used to burn alive on their husband's cremation when they die. Widows were forced to burn alive after their husbands die.
Tribhuvan Chandel we wouldn't even know that name if not for the biopic that came out 1-2 years ago. And even then, we haven't watched it. They didn't teach us modern U.K. history in the United States, at least not when we were in school.
Sati phase a widow can't marry and they used to kill the widower with the following person whether it was a man or woman it was abolished by Britishers and child marriages were also stopped...
in Sati ....when the husband was (mostly the high class warrior ) dead...the wife alive was burnt along him..about 60000 women have gone through this throughout history ..as they were considered status symbols and had high possibility of someone exploiting them sexually usually as a sign of dominance or satisfying androgens ...some women did this voluntarily and were considered great but after a period it became a ritual and they were forcibly burnt.... British banned after some Indian leaders took effort to make it recognisable to brit govt ....Aib just wanted to say that India they weren't all black side of spectrum but more on blackish grey side
gian-alberto Perez actually that is the only team iI have seen and heard about that too from Hollywood movies in 90's must have been cool then I guess..but anyways for somebody who is not aware of current scene in baseball.. I like the blue on White and the font they have used :) also I have seen other Jersey s that have strips all over highly dislike them ..that's my personal opinion..
gian-alberto Perez I guess I am giant from now on .. also hey man since I managed to get a reply actually I would really like you to watch the movie actually but even if watch the trailer you would want to watch the movie. It is from a director "vishal bhardwaj" he only makes movies that are adaptations of shekspere's plays but purely Indian stories ..one such of his work is The movie named "HAIDER" is an epic really ,a must, do give it a try !!
It's about time you guys did some TVF stuff! They're way better and more original than AIB. Hands down the best content creators in India (I'm talking about TVF; Not AIB). Cheers :)
The speech that he gave was actually sarcastic.He was trying to convey the true colors of Indian politics with it.
They didn't get the fair and lovely part 😂😂😂😂 and Raj one because it's was called British Raj Raj means rule .. British rule
06:57 There is not a single case recorded of forced Sati-Pratha in Bharat before you Britishers arrived...
satis were a spiritually high women in the society and those women were considered as goddess of society.
how can you forget to mention about Witch Hunt which was widely practiced in whole Europe & you were warning the girls and women of your Society on the name of a Witch Hunt... Britishers recorded nearly 5,000 to 6,000 cases from India of Sati-Pratha & more than 5,000 cases were recorded from West Bengal....
West Bengal was under rule of East India Company but how can you forget to mention about more than 50,000 women were burned alive only in Germany forget about rest of the Europe and everything was supported by churches and it was widely practiced in whole Europe in 18th century but nobody can speak about it
in the Rigveda there is the famous funeral hymn and that has been used by critics of Hinduism to say Sati was made mandatory and obligatory from Vedic times but what does this "Funeral Hymn" say...?
इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पिषा संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु जनयोयोनिमग्रे || (RV 10.18.7)
This funeral Hymn addresses a widow it tells her that sit next to the dead body of the man moisten your eyes with ghee and then get up and resume your place in the World.
now it's interesting that the word "Agre" is earlier was replaced by the word "Agneh" that is fire...
"Orginal Shloka"
इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पिषा संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु "जनयोयोनिमग्रे"|| (RV 10.18.7)
"Edited by British"
इमा नारीरविधवाः सुपत्नीराञ्जनेन सर्पि संविशन्तु | अनश्रवो.अनमीवाः सुरत्ना आ रोहन्तु "जनयोयोनिमग्ने" || (RV 10.18.7)
so when did this take place..? was it deliberately done...? to convey an impression that Hindu Religious scriptures made it obligatory for a woman to commit Sati...
Ramayan Burst False Narrative about presence of Sati-Pratha in ancient times... it's very clear in the Ramayan that none of the widows of Raja Dashrath Immolates, nor does any Widow of Ravana Immolates. so in the Ramayan it is very clear that there is no instance of Sati in the family of Dashrath or Ravan's Family
You laugh are so honest...You just got a new subscriber!!!

As per mythology/legends of old : Sati was daughter of Prajapati Daksh and first wife of Shiva. Daksha organized a Yajna but didn't invite Shiva because he didn't like him. Sati took offense to it- she went there and jumped in the alter of fire made to perform yajna. Story goes on how Lord Shiva got angry when he learned about her death. Somehow Lord Vishnu was able to calm him down. Later Sati is said to have reincarnated as Parvati- that's where the word Sati comes from.
There are a few of incidents mentioned in Mahabharat where a woman accompanied her dead husband in to funeral pyre. But it was not regular.
Now during medieval period Rajput women from warrior families, started committing self immolation to avoid enslavement, kidnapping and rapes at the hands of invaders more regularly. - three incident of mass suicide in Chittor alone. Muslim historians used word Jauhar for the act. But these women themselves were equated with 'Sati' and thus the word became common for such women and then the custom itself was named Sati by the time of British and since.
It became a bigger problem in later years. While the medieval royal women may have more solid reason to choose death relatively, later on it turned in to a more common custom in many Rajput families just to prove own virtue and spread in other other higher castes, especially among Bramins. It became a short cut to glorify oneself in a round about way if a widow in the family was seen so virtuous to follow husband in death. It also meant not having to take care of her financially as a widow had life interest in a joint family or could inherit husband's property in divided one. Thus the exploitation. Theoretically it must have been widow's choice but if in-laws wanted her out of picture they would force her somehow anyway.
During British period some Indian reformists stated the movement to abolish this custom and British helped by making laws against it.
I don't think these guy got reference to " salt" either. ( The Dandi March) Or the Jaliyanwala Bagh incident.
Sati (Godess) never jumped in alter of fire(yajna).
Sati Practice which is followed in india ,for widow was later created purposely and as nothing to do with old stories.
Many people link it to sati and daksh scenario, which is wrong.
While in the case of sati(goddess) .she was not a widow.Mahadev never died.
Even firegod(agni dev) also get his source of fire from godess adi parashakti(sati was one of the incarnation of Aadi parashakti) .
It is said that even firegod can not burn sati, bcaz she is goddess.
Shakti represent nature.All the fire, water god energy are depend on her energy. Shakti is pure energy.
Sati uses her own energy to burn her previous body(which is in human form) , bcaz she doesn't want to live as daughter of daksh,and reincarnated as Parvati in next incarnation.
Doesn't understand why people linked it to godess sati.
Important thing no one forced Godess sati to do that.
infact godess sati was not even widow,she was married.
These rituals has nothing to do with goddess sati and daksh.
People purposely used goddess sati named for this stupid rituals, jst to defame goddess.
Even before british,
Bharat(India) as always, invaded by too many outsiders people by many times. Invaders have always used their mind to defame other beliefs, religion and created many such rituals, which was never present in ancient Bharat.
Many invaders even tried to destroy previous culture, temples of jain, buddhist, hindus and tried to convert people.
Many of them misinterpreted the real stories of jain, buddhist and hindus religions
same info has misleaded in generation of thousand yrs and people even started to follow this things by calling them rituals (in the society) in the name of religion.
Talking about mahabharat and even Ramayana also has different version and book, from different parts in india and even other countries.
Many of them does not have exact stories as it was happened in the thousand of yrs ago.

Did brahmin practiced in Odisha,Bengal or south India?with prove?
Sati is a practice women engaged in involving self-immolation upon the death of the husband. At first it must have been a voluntary wartime practice so the women could avoid being raped by an invading army if their husband died. Its contextual origin was misunderstood by subsequent generations and instead of being applied only in wartime to avoid rape you found women being forced into it when there was really no need.
The gay guy they're refering to is the one who deciphered the Nazi radio encryption code and allowed the British to monitor Nazi communications. I believe there's a movie in which Benedict Cumberbatch plays him.
Ragd0ll yes they should do that..
The movie which you are talking about is "The imitation game".

Sati was historically only practiced by Rajasthan as it's first time mentioned in the epic of padmavat.

+Chirag Kapoor we reacted to it today. We will be posting it in a few days!
yo...! i 'm going to say that...well it'll be fine for sure...
The Sati phase was when if the husband died then people believed that there is no point of the wife living because husband was the ultimate person of the household so they thought her life would end with the husband’s and that they would burn widows with the body of the husband against their will.
Sati was an ancient practice where the widow women jump into their husband's cremation fire. It must be thousands of year old practice during the time where the death of men happened usually in battles as soldiers. on those days the widow women were brutally misused by the conquered army. So its a kind of suicide. How does that sound, good? ha ha
Serving it Cold It is always fascinating to see how Hindus always find ways to put the blame on Muslims in India.
Sati was a regressive religious tradition practiced by the Hindus in India till the early 1900's which was outlawed by the Britishers.
No, not on muslims in India. Never on muslims in India - afterall, most of them were forcefully converted or accepted Islam to avoid giving taxes. The blame is on MUGHAL invaders. They were the ones who forced us to perform acts like "sati" and "jauhar" inorder to escape brutality of being enslaved by them and raped by them and losing ones dignity - much more valuable than life.
Mughal were very decent compared to other muslim rulers
Actually the practice of sati continued in many parts of India until it was banned in 1829 which is not so long ago. Also the widow did not always willingly jump into the husband's pyre. It was probably most horrific in Bengal, where the widow was literally forced to burn in her husband's pyre.
@@KOOOLICE there were many women who did jauhaer during the rule of mughal empire specially in rajasthan, no one is blaming modern day muslims but your soft corner for mughals like aurangzeb and allaudin khilji is the reason noone trusts you either [not all]. Sati was done first by the women whose husbands were killed in war which was jauhar but after that it became regressive and brutal and no one is blaming muslims for that. Atleast it ended not like triple talak which was till now in 21st century is practised by people and some people saying it is okay.

The jibe about salt was about Dandi March - Salt was heavily taxed and so Gandhiji led an open defiance to make salt from sea water.

Do you know that when British had just come to india the rupee to sterling( then the currency of UK) was 120 to 1. Ans when they left it was 1 to 100
This was the kind if economic exploitation the british had done
The "gay guy who won us the war" was Alan Turing - the father of modern computers. The Imitation Game starring Benedict Cumberbatch is about him.
Sati was a practice where a woman would have to jump into the funeral pyre of her dead husband (once he died, obviously). That's why they said the widow was the fuel to the fire.
This was abolished by Raja Ram Mohan Roy with the help of the British William Bentick.
Also Indians were transported as indentured labourers by the Brirish Empire all over the Pacific and Caribbean. Indentured labour was just another version of slavery. They’re not talking about Jamaicans.
Actually i sometimes feel bad for foreigners reacting to this cause they think the part where india speaks on mic is serious.. its not.. thats the funniest part.. everything he said india will do after independence hasn’t been done.. that was completely sarcastic. It shows india is not perfect either
Sati is a practice where widows eneter the funeral pyre along with their dead husbands and immolate themselves.
Rauf lala was a pakistani comedian who was very famous in india too.
Some of the jokes were very subtle, like when the britisher walks in finds that the indian is before time. It is referencing the general tardiness of the people in india.! For eg. If it says the event starts at 7 pm in india you can safely assume it will start around 7.30 pm - 7.45 pm. It was taking a dig at that.
The british rule of india was pretty ruthless, now in hindsight we do comedy about it, but at that time it was really bad.
Sati phase: A practice in India in which a widow was burnt alive in the cremation fire of her dead husband. This practice was a culmination of similar ancient practice prevalent mainly in the 'kshatriyas' or the warrior communities where after defeat of one community, the widows of the warriors used to sacrifice themselves fearing rape and oppression from the enemy invaders who had defeated their kin's community. Over time the practice got entrenched into the societal values of the geographical region of India and was twisted by superstitious groups into a tradition called the sati. Perhaps 'Sati' was the name of the first woman to have scrificed herself hence the name. But I might be wrong about sati being 1st sacrifice though.

Lawrence of Arabia?! They’re talking about Alan Turing. Alan was a gay man who was a code breaker in WW2. He helped save over 14 million people and shortened the war by 2 years. He was tried and sentenced to prison for homosexuality after WW2 as it was illegal then, despite having been instrumental in helping win the war.
Wow, Yeah, I want to learn that technical stuff. Please do so in future videos
Sati was the ghastly Indian ritual where a woman would burn herself on her husband's funeral pyre. Britain helped us abolish that, along with some Indian leaders.
Mojjo M You got your historical facts wrong. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, with the help of the British, worked to abolish Sati system. Indians couldn't have done it without the help of the British.
Mojjo M your facts are wrong unfortunately.. It was bengali leader Raja Ram mohan Roy who abolished it and british helped him.. and made awareness against the ritual.. Leaders like Iswarchandra Vidyasagar also supported him..
Indian ritual.. R u mad.. a country with millions of rituals where not two neighbors practice the same ritual..... Don't generalize things... Please do a sensible talk you are representing your views on your country.... Sati was practiced in very few parts of india... Don't generalize by saying it was an indian ritual not all people of India did it..
They wernt referring to lawrence of arabia they were referrering to alan turing the man who invented the first computer to crack the german enigma code to find out where the next german attack would be and win one of the most significant battles in ww2. He also happened to be gay, there was an awesome movie about him played by benedict cumberbatch
the kohinoor diamond you see on queen elizabeths crown was stolen by the British when they were leaving India.
Sati. the practice of sati has gone through an evolution. (its long but if you really want to know)
earliest idea of sati was. when a husband died the wife used to lay beside the husband's body that was on a pyre. A ritual used to be done and then she would "GET UP AND WALK AWAY" and she could marry again if she wanted to. It was symbolic way to say your relationship with your husband ends now over as ur husbands body is burnt. i am talking 1000BC.
Scriptural Proof of the ritual: The ancient and sacred Atharvaveda, one of the four Vedas, believed to have been composed around 1000 BCE, describes a funerary ritual where the widow lies down by her deceased husband, but is then asked to descend, to enjoy the blessings from the children and wealth left to her.
Claims about the mention of sati in Rig Veda.
उदीर्ष्व नार्यभि जीवलोकं गतासुमेतमुप शेष एहि |
हस्तग्राभस्य दिधिषोस्तवेदं पत्युर्जनित्वमभि सम्बभूथ || (RV 10.18.8)
Rise, "come unto the world of life", O woman - come, he is lifeless by whose side thou liest. Wifehood with this thy husband was thy portion, who took thy hand and wooed thee as a lover (wiki)
in fact, if you go far enough you will realize it was an Indo-European practices. the Andronovo cultures 1800-1400 BC used to bury their women along with their husbands. there were many graves found where a man and a woman's bodies were buried together. The practice was never strictly observed and was symbolic most of the times. There were also ancient Greek and some Gremanic tribes who performed this. also, Thracians in southeast Europe, and some tribes of Tonga and Fiji islands. Since we all stem from a commons source (indo-europeans), its interesting to see how customs and practices evolve. It's also interesting to note, the many wives of these aristocracies used to fight to die along with their husbands.
400AD: Then it became a ritual in 'some' parts of India. All of India never followed sati. from some documented sources it was done by some clans in the west and east. to say every Hindu woman did that would be preposterous. The prestige of family also gave a boost to this practice. so a family could say, look how devoted she was to her husband, she performed sati. haah such a devoted perfect wife. and hence it became forced in many cases. Keep in mind it was only meant for Aristocracy not regular people.
then we come to 1300 AD. here it gets complicated. people started confusing Sati and Juhar. Juhar was done by the royalty and her maidens and most women, so that they would not fall into the hands of muslims and get raped or be slaves etc.
British period. the British didn't care much about sati. it was only when hindu reformers started a movement and went to the British to sign on a law abolishing sati that it became illegal. If they cared about sati they would have done it much earlier.
Finally! Will be learning something.. I do like the in depth movie reviews
Thank you so much for your comment! We hope to continue to teach you new things.
Rouf lala is the co villian of a famous movie Agneepath in 90's. It's remake is made recently. As like everyone I will request you to react to Dr. Sashi Tharoor's speech at Oxford uni. It's really informative and good.
Killing people while they are doing a peaceful protest is reference from Jallianwala Bagh Massacare. In which hundreds of children, woman and man were brutally murdered in an open fire.
Firstly , thanks for considering the suggestion.
Secondly , just for your understanding .... the monologue was actually a satire . All that he mentioned in the speech is actually happening in INDIA right now.
Anyways .... checkout "the timeliners" , "girliyapa" and other TVF videos and keep up your great work !
+Chandan vines :-O we definitely understand that it was satire, this is why we were laughing. We may have not understood every single line of dialogue, but we definitely understood the overall concept of the videos.

@10:20, Sati was an ancient tradition of India, where after the death of the Husband, the wife had to burn herself down in the burning grave of her man.
Now its seems ridiculous but not long ago it was the part of Hindu tradition.
When brirish arrived with Armour and suited clothes,
Indian women were self imolated.
F.Y.I No one was forced to, they would devote themselve to not live after their husbands death.
In case someome would deny it, none were physically punished, but rather socially evicted. They had to live a solitaire life or had rights to mistress.
Yet British governments cruelty during indian famine, salvery, proxy wars, 300% tax imposition etc could not hide from the good deeds like abolition of sati system and child married, industrialization etc.
Thank You
Mauritius Fiji Suriname Trinidad Guyana etc Mauritius even has majority Indian population (70%) many Surinamese are now settled in Netherlands and constitute largest Indian diaspora in Europe Fiji Guyana Trinidad have substantial Indian population of course their ancestors had gone to all these countries as slaves but they helped in building all these countries from scratch
Hello Daniel and Gian. At 5:16 in the video, the speech given by that guy might seem like he is praising India and dissing out the British, but actually, those are very sarcastic remarks on several controversies which our present Indian government has been involved with. The "insecure regime" mentioned at 6:02 is actually directed towards our present government. If you want to see more of their political sketches, then do check out AIB : Demonetization Circus.
You see, AIB has always been a very vocal critic of the unfair government policies. Many people consider them to be left wing supporters or anti-BJP (BJP is the ruling political party in India at present, usually known for their orthodox religious ideology), but actually AIB has dissed every political party which has been in power. They have made fun of Congress (another major political party in India), in their video titled "The day Congress resigned" and "AIB: BJP vs Congress". They also made a parody video on the founder of AAP(a fairly new, but popular political party in India) named, "AIB : Nayak 2".
Also, apart from making comedy sketches, AIB has actively helped in several social media campaigns, for eg : achieving Net Neutrality in India. They kept spreading awareness regarding Net Neutrality on social media, when Facebook partnered with Reliance to fool people into getting free Internet while eventually aiming to monopolize it. This eventually led to the establishment of Net Neutrality in India.
Also, AIB is very good at hiding secret messages, puns and sarcastic remarks in their videos. Since, you are Americans, so its only natural that you would miss most of them.
Apart from that, I really love your reactions. Keep doing the good job. :)
these guys hit nearly perfect modern reflections of what people think, they hate when left goes too extreme pandering minorities that people just see them as Right wing of minorities ...they hate right with extremist self destructive attitude and the tension they create in society just for sake of votes
This was a good one. Dan n Gian, make sure u react to Sashi Tharoor's speech at Oxford Univ, Cambridge, which will give u context, a deeper insight into the history between the british n india, that is not taught in western history.

Sati was a practice in mediaeval India in which widow used to be burned along with his late husband. It isn't practiced anymore.
You've got to turn up the volume of the video you play mannn... That's been my complaint with each one of your vlog! Great job btw
Okay, now all the reaction videos on youtube seem to be biased towards Indians. All the time, Indians are on the receiving end of these reactions. So, every person who reads this comment should pledge to create reaction videos of US, UK and every other developed country's popular videos and get a million views from the people of those countries. It is sad that people from other countries still do not know how Indians react. Let us spread the love! Peace!!

Sati phase was the time when Indian women used to jump into fire pits when their husbands died. It was in the 17th century
I just cringed to death when I heard you guys say "Lawrence of Arabia". It was Alan Turing who won them the war by cracking the German Enigma COde. But they chemically castrated him for being gay and he eventually committed suicide. Time to hit the history books, boys! this is embarrassing!
Merica!
You should really watch this video now that you have watched movie "lagaan". You'll enjoy it more 😊😊
great minds think alike!
They were talking about Alan Turing, the gay guy who won them the war . He solved the Enigma code
if you google or wiki" sati system in India." than youll understand why he said widows don't make good fuel.

Hi I am your new subscriber I like your Reaction videos Keep it coming ! you guys are wonderful ! and 1 question which editing tool you use to make that small screen inside screen ?
Others have covered most of what you guys missed, but here are a few other references. Right at the beginning, just before "Echo...echo...echo", the narrator starts saying "Unnis Sau (nineteen hundred) 'errr..."Forty Seven", like he forgot how to say 47 in Hindi (saintaaliss). Lagaan poster says "Lagaan #Never Forget". The poster of the queen says Roop Ki Rani" (Queen of money) and the one of her husband says "Goron Ka Raja" (white people's king). The "There Are No Indians in Restaurant" is in reference to "No Indians and No Dogs Allowed" signs in front of restaurants for whites only under the British (Of course there were plenty of Indian workers in the kitchen and on the Wait staff). The train refers to the British bragging that they at least gave India a railroad before they left. They in fact built it to move troops around the country quickly to quell insurrection and to haul out Indian goods to ports so they could sell the goods and pocket the money. The "proxy wars: India sent 1.5 million vaulanteer soldiers foe WWI (largest volunteer army in the world at the time) and 2.5 million in WWII (new record). The black and white speech portion speech is in reference to the speech Nehru (India's first Prime Minister) gave on 12:01 AM, Aug. 15, 1947, India's Independence Day (one of the stupidest questions I've been asked: "Do they celebrate 4th of July in India). ruclips.net/video/Uj4TfcELODM/видео.html
Chris Boscurry do they celebrate the 4th? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA people are dumb
:D
the entire speech was sarcastic everything he said we woulf not do is happening in india
Sathi was a practice in India where when husband dies his wife has to jump and die into his funeral pyre. This was abolished by Rajaramohan Roy with the help of a British general.
The homosexual reference was to Alan Turing. He was a computer scientist.
I think he was referring to Alan Turning when he said "Gay guy who won us the war".
The imitation Game is a film about him.
At 2:07 , Search for Jallianwala Bagh massacre , They killed women and children , closing the only exit to the park .
Thank you daniel and gian for reacting about india
Hey, AIB man's best friend. The best video of AIB
You guys should watch Lagaan. It's a brilliant film which will also help with understand this part of history. We would like a movie review of Lagaan
it was not lawerance of Arabia he was refering to the guy who decoded german code breaker the imitation game
Sati phase was when a women became widow she was cremated alive with her dead husband which the british abolished.
It's conversation between three countries ..
“Widows dnt make good fuel” ..they were referring to the sati act in which wen a woman’s husband dies dey burn her alive wid his husbands corpses
the gay guy they were addressing is alan turing who played a vital role in british victory in second world war. Check out the movie the imitation game based on the autobiography of alan.
They referred to Allan turing , not Lawrence of Arabia

Hey guys u've gotta react to 'Shashi Tharoor MP, Does Britain Owe Reparations?' speech at Oxford University
I can explain everything, but what's the point, no one ever reads them
Read what?
Well here you go, I'll give it a shot..try and explain some of the jokes that people outside India may not get or even many Indians..
When the British guy says, what if they were peacefully protesting the suspension of civil rights, can we shoot them??, It is about an actual event, The Jalianwala Bhag Massacre, where hundreds of peaceful protesters were shot in a garden with only one exit.
The girl that Pakistan chases after is Malala.
The speech in the middle where he gets up and says, Enough I will not be like you, I will not divide based on ethnicity, color of the skin, I will not muzzle the media, jail students, or shoot our own civilians etc etc., is mocking Indians ourselves because all of those things eventually did happen after Independence, and the Speech itself is a direct reference to a famous speech called Tryst with Destiny made by India's first prime minister made on the day of our Independence.
Again with the salt, always with the salt refers to something called Salt Satyagraha or Dhandi March. Basically Indians were not allowed to manufacture anything pre independence and as a form of protest Gandhi and thousands of freedom fighters marched to a place called Dhandi and made salt. Back then, even such basic rights were made illegal to Indians.
When he says Sati, and widows don't make good fuel. It refers to a barbaric Indian custom called Sati. In many parts of India where when a husband died, the widow also supposedly jumped into the funeral pyre to kill themselves supposedly to show her loyalty, but then when most widows didn't want to kill themselves after their husband's death, thousands were forcefully killed by throwing them into the fire. This practice was abolished by the British.
The gay guy jailed for saving the world refers to Alan Turing who broke the enigma code which made the allies win WWII.
When he says please call me Raj. Raj is a common Indian name used in many Bollywood movies, but the word also means regime in Hindi. The British occupation was also called the British Raj or simply the Raj, hence the use here.
I think everything else from the video most people have understood.

Sati phase came when the Widows were used to burn alive on their husband's cremation when they die. Widows were forced to burn alive after their husbands die.

Sati phase a widow can't marry and they used to kill the widower with the following person whether it was a man or woman it was abolished by Britishers and child marriages were also stopped...
Sati was a hindu practice in which the alive women were cremated along with the dead bodies of their husband

Also the school girl phase they were talking about was of Malala.
widows were made to burn alive on the pires of their husbands... they called it Sati pratha
Also watch 'Kenny Sebastian: why I don't make jokes on politics.'
plz watch Shashi tharoor debate at Oxford university on British rule in India
You guys did not even put the original video man, you should get the copyright straight. Just wait
in Sati ....when the husband was (mostly the high class warrior ) dead...the wife alive was burnt along him..about 60000 women have gone through this throughout history ..as they were considered status symbols and had high possibility of someone exploiting them sexually usually as a sign of dominance or satisfying androgens ...some women did this voluntarily and were considered great but after a period it became a ritual and they were forcibly burnt.... British banned after some Indian leaders took effort to make it recognisable to brit govt ....Aib just wanted to say that India they weren't all black side of spectrum but more on blackish grey side
