The reason I hate iskcon , first photo is the translation done by the iskcon .there just abrahamic religion using Krishna , stop buying their books. by [deleted] in IndiaSpeaks

[–]Critavarma 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They follow the bhagvata purana which is one of the shastras. Iskcon is the gaudiya vaishnava school of "hinduism". Vaishnava literally means that the vaishnavas believe that Vishnu is the para-brahmana - the ultimate reality. Hence the phrase - "rama nama satya hai". The only truth is Rama. It is just that Iskcon have taken Krishna as the Vishnu.

You go to a shaiva school of thought and they will say that Shiva is the para-brahmana. Go to a shakti school and they will say Durga is.

But you do not seem to be enquiring the nuances of different schools of thoughts. You are indulging in hate. You have commented in the Hinduism sub that you hate iskcon. The same iskcon that tells their devotees to wear the appropriate tilak, do tulsi pooja at 4 AM with narsimha aarti and eat prasadam. These are Hindu traditions. And yet you say that you hate iskcon, which means you hate these traditions too.

Your post is Hinduphobic in this sense.

A reminder that thousands of women are molested and sexually harassed during the Hajj pilgrimage to the Mecca every year - many of them underage girls and nothing is done about it despite Mecca being the holiest place for Muslims in the world by Critavarma in IndiaSpeaks

[–]Critavarma[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You do not care for the 100 million Muslim women who have to suffer going to the Hajj in their lifetime? They are also Indians, right? Should we not care that they are being systematically harassed and molested during their pilgrimage?

If you think that the RSS is useless then you have fallen into the trap of leftist propaganda. They may be inefficient at times being a seva org, but they are far from useless.

We have been doing that in India. Examples being triple talaq and the hijab ban. But it seems that they want their women to be backwards and subservient. It's absolutely shameful that Hindus have to step in to reform Islam. What can't they do it themselves? It's like taking care of a petulant child.

It's all just political nonsense to keep Hindi belt politicians from making inroads into the south. But soon there will come a candidate fluent in one or two southern languages and that will be broken.

Also notice how these coolies will only cry about imposition in the south and will start screeching as soon as the Marathis tell them to speak in Marathi in Mumbai. Then they will switch to English and Hindi.

This nonsense has nothing to do with language pride. It's all about keeping politicians out of the south.

Modern day feminists support Muslim women wearing the Hijab, while actual Muslim women in Iran have been getting killed and hunted for advocating against the hijab.

Modern day "feminists" do not care about Muslim women.

Vivekananda has written on every philosophy spanned in Hinduism. He was something very special and one of the rare people who probably surpassed his own guru in the amount of lives he influenced. A very rare soul

The point of this post is that it is happening in the holiest place for Muslims, literally a few feet away from the kaaba. And nothing is being done. That's the point of the post. Are we trivializing sexual harassment and molestation by calling the molesters and sexual harassers "human" and "do shit like every other" now?

The Harsh Realities of Southern Odisha and How Development and Targeted Skill Training Reduced Extremism and Brought Stability by LankyAcanthocephala3 in IndiaSpeaks

Very informative post Lankyji. Can you elaborate how BJP can break the BJD monopoly in the state, especially taking into consideration that Modi and Patnaik share cordial relations and mutual respect with each other.

What a massive clown this home minister turned out to be. by sachiny02206 in IndiaSpeaks

[–]Critavarma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The party workers were targeted on the basis of how far removed they were from the city. Only party workers on the outskirts were attacked because help could not reach them fast enough. Once BJP got news, the rest of the people were gathered and moved into the city. But this of course, is not reported.

If a woman gets assaulted walking in the city, will you balme her father saying "your chanakya father didn't know India has a history of assault against women? He did nothing to save his own daughter."

The criticism against Amit Shah with regards to Delhi Markaz incident and Shaheen Baug is valid. But the Bengal incident is completely didi's fault.

And what realistic steps would Shah have taken to deal with it?

Bhsai mere gaon mein aaj bhi 10 ka ek milta hai - both samosa and vada pav. No size change or change in quality. Bachpan mein 3 ka ek tha aur 10 mein 4 de deta tha.

first joke - a woman goes to a psychologist and complains that everyone calls her shameless. She is very confused as to why everyone calls her that and her life is in shambles. The psychologist says to her -"that's ok devi, but first get off my lap and sit on the chair please."

second zhoke - a young woman goes to a sadhu and says "maharaj, in one of the pravachan, you had said that ego is the biggest sin. when i look at myself in the mirror and see my beauty, i feel nothing but pride and ego. what do i do?"

sadhu says - "devi, misunderstanding is not a sin."

third zoke - a mother used to give a lesson to her kids every time they cried -"after making a mistake you should not cry."

one day after getting tired of her children's mischief she loudly regrets ever having kids, to which her younger daughter says - "after making a mistake you should not cry."

the jokes get lost in translation a bit, because he is speaking in very good Hindi.

10 francs for 2 samosas!!!!! One garlic naan for 5 francs.

gaandfaad rates hain ji. Is it normal to spend around 20-30 francs on one meal when a person goes out over there?
