The best looking architectural styles for temples in my opinion are kath-khuni of Himalayan region and the East Asian styles. These temples located in mountains surrounded by forest are peak aesthetically. In terms of carvings, Mainland India wins obviously.

This is why all Subaltern 'Oppressed' in India,equating themselves with what Africans/Blacks faced,should be seen as Frauds. They are misappropriating such misery for personal gains India had its societal conflicts but what Africans faced was diabolical. x.com/ibti_16/status…

@useoneonly @rian_vlbt Though there are instances where Vishnu decides to end the Kaivalya state of a Mukta & brings him out to give him a functional existence

@accelerator00_ @rian_vlbt On the other hand, the GV doctrine will slot most mukta-s into permanently inferior states, including the states approximate to KA which is described as functional non-existence

One of the things I like most about the Trika approach, especially as interpreted by Abhinavagupta, is its notion of hierarchical inclusivism. It's because there are at least three possible approaches to the differences between religious traditions: 1. We can become dogmatic exclusivists and try to claim a monopoly on truth, insisting that my own tradition is the only valid one and that all others must be rejected. This is the sort of thing we see in many Abrahamic sects and, unfortunately, among some followers of Madhva, for example. 2. We can become relativists and say that all positions, even if they contradict each other, are equally correct and that there’s no fact of the matter to settle the issue. This is a view that sounds appealing to modern ears but comes with serious costs in terms of plausibility and consistency. Or we can take the third option and say that all traditions contain something valid from which we can learn, without clinging to any dogmatic fixation, even if one of them (perhaps mine, perhaps not) goes deeper than the others. This implies some kind of hierarchy, but it’s an inclusive rather than exclusive one. I think this is the healthiest approach available and that, regardless of which tradition one sees as closer to the truth, it’s an admirable attitude and enjoys prima facie plausibility (as David Peter Lawrence explains in the print below). Mark Dyczkowski also notes this in his Doctrine of Vibration: "This understanding of reality allows for a range of insights into its nature which complement and sustain each other without conflict. Almost every school of Indian thought aspires to lead us to a plane of being and an experience which it believes to be the most complete and satisfying. This is the liberation it offers. All these views are correct insofar as they correspond to an actual experience. But this is because the absolute, through its inherent power, assumes the form of all the levels of realisation (bhūmikā) which correspond to the ultimate view (sthiti) each system upholds. Dualism is not an incorrect view of reality although it corresponds to only one of the levels within the absolute. Citing the well-known Jaina example, Abhinava explains that the exponents of different systems are like blind men who, presented with an elephant, touch one part or another and argue amongst themselves about what it could be. This is not because they disagree completely but because their agreement is only partial. Ultimately, differing views of reality are the result of the capacity (śakti) of the absolute to appear in different forms. Rather than reject all views as incorrect because they are not completely true, the Kashmiri Śaiva prefers to accept them all because they are partially true. System builders are all equally concerned with reality, but are like children of feeble intellect (sukumāramati) who have not yet reached the supreme summit (parakāṣṭhā) of the absolute, the experience of Supreme Oneness. They cannot, as yet, look down to the lower planes and see their role within the whole. Accordingly Maheśvarānanda says: Not accepting each others’ point of view they talk of Your universal nature in terms of that which is to be refuted and that which refutes it in order to reject [their] opponents’ position."

@siyonius @YuvrajS2012P @useoneonly @rian_vlbt @Thakur_Saab_84 "furry halfbreed" why not, he is one technically, with the horns

@accelerator00_ @YuvrajS2012P @useoneonly @rian_vlbt @Thakur_Saab_84 bīja prominence logic as devatās & ṛṣis holding more tapa here afaik. parāśara himself narrates this in his gīta. also, vyāsa is supernatural already as being amsha of nārāyaṇa himself. plus if we go by this logic, then rṣyaśṛṅga should be called as a furry halfbreed.

1) We are a Agamic tradition par excellence. We don't give a fuck for casteism, as Abhinavagupta in his Tantraloka shows: "अत एवार्थसत्तत्त्वदेशिन्यस्मिन्न दिश्यते । रहस्यशास्त्रे जात्यादिसमाचारो हि शाम्भवे ॥ ५१७ ।। This is why in this tradition of Saivism, based as it is on the reality of consciousness and hence is also known as of secret nature, there is no place for distinction based on caste, etc. ( 517 ) पाशवानि तु शास्त्राणि वामशक्त्यात्मकान्यलम् । सृष्ट्यादिसिद्धये शंभो: शङ्कातत्फलक्लृप्तये ॥५१८ ।। Sāstras (like Smṛtis, etc.) are concerned with the objective of the ordinary human life motivated by ideals of the forces of leftist nature depending on discrimination of caste, etc. in the ordinary course of social life where such discriminations are relevant in the determination of action and its consequences. (518) आपादितद्विजत्वस्य द्वादशान्ते निजैक्यतः । स्पर्शमात्रान्न विश्रान्त्या झटित्येवावरोहतः ।।५१९।। रुद्रांशापादनं येन समयी संस्कृतो भवेत् । In this tradition the student attains the status of a twice-born by virtue of his ascension to the state of the end of the twelve psychic principles and his guarantee of oneness with Siva by being just touched by the hand of the teacher and immediate descent of the force on him without having to wait for his resting in it. On account of descent of the force on him, he realises his essential inherence in Rudra while because of having received the culture of Śivahood, he becomes samayi, established in samayācāra. (519-520a) योनिर्न कारणं तत्र शान्तात्मा द्विज उच्यते ॥ ५१३।। मुनिना मोक्षधर्मादावेतच्च प्रविवेचितम् मुकुटादिषु शास्त्रेषु देवेनापि निरूपितम् ||५१४|| On this point, discounting the source of one's birth, it is the peacefulness of his temperament on account of which he comes to be known as the twice-born. This has been decided by sage Vyāsa in the beginning of the Mokṣadharma Parva of the Mahābhārata. The same thing has been confirmed by Lord Siva in texts like Mukuta śāstra. (513b-514)" 2) Bhagavad Gītā does not say anything about birth determining varṇa, and the Mahābhārata explicitly states that it is not determined by birth, even indicating that foreigners may be initiated into Vedic rites.

@WukongReborn ok agreed

@accelerator00_ No. Asuras are just anti daevic, in a tantric Buddhist sense this does not make them evil. Bc Buddha nature. We have multiple asuric beings as well as SHUKRA who is as “evil” as any graha.

@siyonius @YuvrajS2012P @useoneonly @rian_vlbt @Thakur_Saab_84 ? Making her virgin again won't change Vyasa's blood

@YuvrajS2012P @useoneonly @rian_vlbt @Thakur_Saab_84 yeah like how srī bhāgavan was raised by vaiśyas. still, portraying vyāsa as varnaśaṅkarā is dubious as parāśara made satyavati virgin again & they didn't marry. not to mention the same vyāsa who composed brahmasūtras having apasūdrādhikaraṇa so how can this be reconciled?

Divisions of heavenly realms belonging to different Gods highlighted in Jaiminiya Brahmana 1.334.

@WukongReborn uh, huh? ok. I guess you mean some of them like Prahlada are treated well

@accelerator00_ Asuric doesn’t mean “evil” sorry

@cbkwgl Can you please share the list of sources you used? especially on their religion- pantheon, cosmology, ontology, epistemology Though history is also appreciated

Let me present you a situation. There is an ancient kingdom of which we know nothing. This kingdom was invaded and subjugated. Now, the one who conquered it changed it's religion completely and wrote it's history in a way that the new religion existed always.

この階段の長さだけでも、奥にそびえる建物の大きさが伝わってくる

巨大な城壁がそびえたっていた

@WukongReborn that these are internalized now does not mean anything They are definitely evil and asuric not from just Hindu but a normal Buddhist perspective

@WukongReborn There is confusion here I m using Asuric as synonym for Evil Writing stories of killing hindu gods "Subjugating" Bon Gods like Srin Mo Luring brahmins to eat their flesh Skinning children for rituals x.com/cbkwgl/status/… x.com/PaganMinNP/sta… x.com/_Rice_Cream/st…

@gorakhvacha we integrated persian arabic astrology? i was only aware of hellenic influence in varahamihra

@accelerator00_ Persian arabic astrology in general, labelled Tajik and inducted into our system integrally

Tandoori naan, astrology, Rabab and Bhakti sir gotta be the top 4 things we are grateful for, to the Tajiks.

@viprabuddhi I think you were the one who also said that the Puyas the Ramanandi king was accused on burning were vamachara kaula puyas, not sanamahi texts

This is misinformation spread by Saroj Nalini Arambam Parratt, a Meitei ricebag married to a white missionary. Her husband was the one who started the whole "Christian tribals being oppressed" narrative back in 2023 Reality is that Charairongba was already an ardent devotee of Kalika + Krishna before his half Naga son ascended the throne (who is the one accused of converting to Hinduism) His son imposed Rama worship in Manipur, which was later restored to Krishna by Bhagyachandra Charairongba was initiated by an Utkala Brahmin named Rai Vanamali, while Pamheiba was initiated by Shantidas Goswami from Sylhet. Manipur's entire academia is filled with commies + ricebags who have rewritten the state's history. Charairongba - Nimbarka Vaishnavite Pamheiba - Ramanandi Vaishnavite Bhagyachandra - Gaudiya Vaishnavite

@WukongReborn Asuric is an adjective applied by me. Depicting Hindu gods being killed is asuric tendency, invoking Nishumbha in mantra is asuric.

@accelerator00_ There are no “asura” tantras you absolute mongo. Asuras practice tapsya lol.

@guNagarbhaH yeah, the only anti-daiva element hinduism has are the sabara mantras of naths

@accelerator00_ Even today Hindu Tara worship(derived from ones of Ekajata and what not) has violent and kapalika elements. It's still daiva tho.

@guNagarbhaH while Vajra'sri' and Vajra'gauri' retain their normal hindu names

@guNagarbhaH i am quite sure now that the buddhist Tara is saraswati White Tara = White Saraswati, we have red tara, blue tara, blue saraswati, red saraswati. Vajrapadmobhava(Vajrayana version of Brahma like along with counterparts of Vishnu & Shiva) has Vajra Tara as wife
