if you get this, answer with 3 random facts about yourself and send it to the last 7 blogs in your notifications, anonymously or not! Let's get to know the person behind the blog. :)

1. I spent the Covid lockdown learning how to make homemade pasta 🍝 (but wish I had just started a tiktok😂)

The Deep Meaning of the Ghanta in Hinduism

In Hinduism, the bell—or ghanta—is not just a ritual object. It is a sacred symbol that connects the physical world with the divine. Each part of its structure holds a spiritual meaning:

Body: It represents Ananta, infinite time, reminding us of the eternity of the universe and the endless cycle of life.

Tongue (inner hammer): It symbolizes Saraswati, goddess of knowledge and wisdom. It is the part that generates the sacred sound.

Handle: It contains prana shakti—vital energy—and often features figures such as Hanuman, Garuda, or the Trishula, each with its own symbolic power.

🔔 The sound emitted by the ghanta is no coincidence: it purifies, focuses the mind, and wards off negative energies. Its vibration is related to Om, the primordial sound of the universe.

📿In temples, homes, and even in modern meditation apps, the sound of the bell marks the beginning of the sacred. It's used in daily rituals, major festivals like Diwali or Shivaratri, and also in modern yoga and healing practices.

💡Fact: The sound of the ghanta is believed to harmonize the five elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space) and can even have beneficial effects on the brain, promoting calm and mental clarity.

More than an instrument, the ghanta is a bridge between the earthly and the eternal.

When Peace Becomes a Wound: India, Terrorism, and the Weight of Restraint

I’ve always believed in peace. I still do. I don’t dream of war. I don’t find glory in bloodshed. And I certainly don’t believe revenge heals grief. But what happens when the very peace you’re protecting is the reason you keep losing your people? What happens when the other side doesn’t believe in peace at all?

This blog isn’t written out of hatred. It’s written out of heartbreak, confusion, and the raw frustration of watching the same pattern play on loop - a terrorist attack, innocent lives lost, silence from the world, and once again, India is told to be “mature,” “calm,” and “restrained.”

How many Pulwamas? How many Pahalgams? How many coffins wrapped in our tricolour will it take before the world understands that peace without accountability is just a pause before the next tragedy?

India has tried. Again and again. Diplomatic talks, bilateral agreements, backchannel negotiations, and yet, terrorist camps continue to thrive across the border. How long are we expected to act like it’s not happening? And more importantly, why must we always be the ones trying?

Yes, I am anti-war. Yes, I believe in dialogue. But don’t confuse that with weakness. Because defending your people is not the opposite of peace ,it is the very foundation of it. What India did with Operation Sindoor wasn’t about revenge. It was about drawing a line , a line that should’ve been drawn long ago.

And let's address the said "diplomatic peace mediation" : the hypocrisy of international response. IMF loans flowing into a country that has harboured, sheltered, and at times even celebrated known terrorists. Social media giants gag Indian voices calling out terrorism, but conveniently stay silent when the hate flows the other way. Neutrality? Really? Or is it just comfortable indifference?

No, I don’t hate Pakistani civilians. I never will. But I will not pretend that both sides are equally innocent. I will not chant "peace" if it comes at the cost of more Indian blood. Because that’s not peace. That’s surrender.

India has done enough. Now, India is doing what it must. And if the world won’t understand that , maybe it never really cared.

I write this as someone who aches every time a soldier doesn’t return home. As someone who still wants peace , but not the kind that requires us to die for it.

framing hindus as colonizers vs muslims/arabs has to be even dumber than saying jews are not indigenous to the levant.

…do you know how old hinduism is?

“colonizers framing themselves as the oppressed so they don’t have to atone for their crimes told me the actual oppressed are oppressors so i’m just going to believe it without question.”

get a grip 😂 the earth is flat too, right?

people who know history: so arab colonization—

Goosebumps!!!

this is very true. there has been a sudden upsurge of spirituality among Indians in the last 5-6 years. As if something ancient is slowly awakening

Bhairava is the foundation on which she stands. So naturally his worship will intensify first. Once he is fully established in this land she will come with her khadga

I wanna know the whole lore now. What's with the rats and hammer and radish?

Japanese Buddhist version of Shiva be like

I find it slightly humorous how he went from full youthful yogin to very well fed older gentleman with hammer, bales of rice and rats, but hey he flourished

still same functions he actually has a similar form to the continental Bhairava but he looks like this most of the time

Naaah how is he so cute?? Also is he riding a radish in the first picture? Lol

Love how Shiva has evolved through cultures and practices. Japan also has other versions of Hindu deities like Ganesha and Saraswati. I’ve heard about it.

I would love to study more about the symbolism of the rats and the radish!

I just have a feeling they wanted us to put down guards

Pakistan violates ceasefire with India.

Udhampur, Jammu and Kashmir.

It hadn’t even been 3 hours since the news of ceasefire and they’re already back at their terrorist activities.

You cannot defend this anymore.

So I just found this out about Shiv Charcha. So "charcha" here doesn't just mean discussion. It could be a simple gathering in the name of Shiv. Where bhajans and kirtans are performed to praise the deity. Which was exactly what was happening yesterday.

We have a family from UP doing "Shiv charcha" today and I can't get enough of it🥰😇

They've called all families in our society who are from UP and everyone's singing bhajans and kirtans in bhojpuri and awadhi. By everyone, I mean, it's all the women. My mother's also there. And hearing it all feels so good. It is because it's quite rare that this kind of event happens. And yeah connecting to the language is an added benefit here.

Does anyone know what a "Shiv charcha" is though?
