Patriotism Doesn’t Mean Blind Agreement With Everything Your Country Does , Agreed. But It Also Doesn’t

Patriotism doesn’t mean blind agreement with everything your country does , agreed. But it also doesn’t mean selectively weaponizing “secularism” to silence the majority, especially when the very identity, safety, and history of that majority is under constant attack. There’s a growing frustration among Hindus, and it’s not without reason. When blood is spilled, when 26 Hindu pilgrims are massacred in cold blood , and the outrage is met not with solidarity, but with lectures on “secularism,” something is deeply wrong.

India is constitutionally a secular state. That means the government must not favor any religion. Yet, time and again, “secularism” has been interpreted not as neutrality, but as appeasement , often at the expense of the Hindu majority. While Hindu festivals are policed, their traditions scrutinized, and their sentiments mocked, religious minorities , particularly Muslims , are portrayed as perpetual victims, even when elements within their community carry out heinous acts of terror.

Let’s look globally, there are OVER 50 officially Islamic countries in the world. Nations where the law is derived from Sharia, where minorities often live under strict regulations, and where the state proudly proclaims its religious identity. No one questions their right to exist, or tells them to “be more secular.” But when Hindus - who have no other homeland but India - ask for their culture, their faith, and their identity to be protected, they’re labelled as fascists, extremists, or worse.

Why is the idea of a Hindu nation so controversial? Pakistan was literally created on the basis of religion. It exists as an Islamic state. And many who defend Pakistan’s actions today fail to acknowledge its history of genocide against Hindus, Sikhs, and other minorities — not just in 1947, but in the decades that followed, through proxy wars, terrorist attacks, and systematic persecution.

If Muslims around the world have Islamic nations where they can freely practice their religion, enforce their laws, and build their communities, why is it “intolerant” for Hindus to want one country where their values, beliefs, and identity are safeguarded?

It’s not about hate. It’s about survival. It's about dignity. It’s about not having to constantly apologize for being Hindu in the only country on earth where Hinduism was born, nurtured, and sustained.

This doesn’t mean non-Hindus should be expelled or oppressed. It means recognizing that India’s civilizational identity is Hindu, and embracing that, with fairness to all, but special protection to none. Equality doesn’t mean erasure. Tolerance doesn’t mean weakness. And secularism doesn’t mean that Hindus must keep shrinking to make room for those who, in too many cases, don't even respect the land they live in.

So no, wanting India to assert its Hindu roots isn’t unpatriotic. It’s self-respect. It’s justice. And frankly, in a world full of religious nations, it's about time Hindus stopped being ashamed of wanting a nation of their own , a homeland where they are not second-class citizens in the name of “secularism,” but proud inheritors of a great civilization.

Dude maybe stop projecting

this hinduphobia gang is so stupid its unreal because what the actual fuck do you mean that 'caste violence is an accepted fact' WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU ACCEPT SOMETHING SO INHUMAN.

atrocities are happening in YOUR NAME. people of your religion are commintting it, and you think its enough for you to just accept it?

this is fucking privilege. you think you get to stay passive while people are killed, raped, displaced, and tortured because of a centuries-old system that was designed to maintain your comfort and power?

if you really cared about people slandering your religion, maybe start with the people within it who are using it as a tool to dehumanise. maybe fix that first. maybe stop crying “hinduphobia” every time someone points out the rot.

What makes you think the OP doesn't know their facts. They do know the history and they know who's in the wrong. It's just that they don't want to create a narrative where whoever is against them is wrong. And whoever they're supporting is in the right.

Wait, you said son/daughter. Can you elaborate?

Women in Mahabharata - Vidhata

Women In Mahabharata - Vidhata

She is described as a son/daughter of Khyati and Bhrigu. Her siblings are Dhata and Lakshmi.

In Mahabharata, in the tale of Uttanka, she appears as a woman in the Naga realms, alongside her sister Dhata, where they weave the black-and-white threads of days and nights, on the wheel of time which is turned by the six seasons.

Dhata and Vidhata have been since long been thought of as the twin goddesses presiding over the concept of Fate.

This is a call out post. This is not coming from a feminist, but a Hindu.

True Hinduism gives equal respect to feminine and masculine energies.

So, men, you need to evaluate how you view women while claiming you're a Hindu.

How can you call yourself a Hindu while calling women names, while making and laughing at gr*pe jokes, while turning a blind eye to assault?

What are you even doing? You chant "Jai Shri Ram" and use the same vocal cords to hurl a slur at a woman you all have collectively demonized. You comment gr*pe threats under a woman's post like you’re above consequences.

And since I mentioned Shri Ram, let me remind you:

He continued to treat Surpanakha with respect, continued addressing her as "devi", even after she expressed her desire to kill Mata Sita so that she gets to marry Shri Ram. Even after she crossed every line of maryada.

He didn’t degrade her, didn’t mock her.

What would he think of you now?

You add sanskrit shlokas in your bio, but your comment history drips with filth. You bow at Mata Durga’s feet during Navratri, then talk about women’s bodies in a degrading manner.

This isn’t Hinduism. This is *misogyny wrapped in saffron*.

You're so desperate to not associate with what Islam or other Abrahmic religions stand for. And yet you're an equal part of the misogyny that they perpetuate on women everywhere in India.

Take out some time and really think about it. Are you a true Hindu or is it just for social media?

Are you really ready to fight adharma? Do you not know that for any fight with Adharma you want to win, you'd need the feminine energy on your side, by your side, and at times have them lead you. Our ancient texts, our folklore, our puranas are evidence for it.

Well I already did a blogpost on Chaiti geet. Didn't get a chance to do one for Sohar. A sohar geet is sung to celebrate the birth of a child. And how can we not have a sohar for our beloved Shri Ram's janm, whose birth made Awadh pure and divine.

Here are 2 sohar geet -

A chaiti geet -

Please enjoy!!

Is it just the USA controlling it? Do other western not have a say in it?

International monetary fund? ❌️

International Madarchod Fund ✅️

The IMF is heavily unfluenced by USA, it's clear they want this war to escalate.

International Monetary Fund? ❌️

So let me get this straight.

The same Pakistan that’s harbored terrorists, sheltered Osama, and fuelled countless attacks on Indian soil…

Gets a 28th loan in 35 years?

Funded by countries who claim to fight terrorism?

Make it make sense.

"Har Har Mahadev! ✨ Celebrating The Divine Energy Of Maha Shivratri"
"Har Har Mahadev! ✨ Celebrating The Divine Energy Of Maha Shivratri"

"Har Har Mahadev! ✨ Celebrating the Divine Energy of Maha Shivratri"

Shiva (Lord Shiva) + ratri (night), so Shivaratri means the night of Lord Shiva." Devotees of Lord Shiva generally observe a strict fast on this day, with some undertaking a nirjal fast, abstaining even from water. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (12.13.16) states vaiṣṇavānāṁ yathā śambhuḥ, indicating that Lord Shiva is the best of the Vaishnavas, the devotees of Lord Krishna. Gaudiya Vaishnavas worship Lord Shiva on this day to seek his blessings to become better devotees of Lord Krishna (Vishnu), rather than to attain residence in the abode of Shiva.

Origin and History of Maha Shivratri

The origins of Maha Shivratri are deeply rooted in Vedic scriptures and ancient traditions. There are multiple explanations for its significance:

1. Appearance of Lord Shiva – According to the Linga Purāṇa, Maha Shivratri marks the divine manifestation of Lord Shiva in the form of a Jyotirlinga, an infinite pillar of light, symbolizing his supreme, formless nature.

2. Marriage of Shiva and Parvati – The Skanda Purāṇa and Shiva Purāṇa mention that Maha Shivratri is the night when Lord Shiva married Goddess Parvati, representing the union of Shakti (energy) and Shiva (consciousness).

3. Shiva’s Cosmic Dance – It is believed that on this night, Lord Shiva performed the Tāṇḍava, the divine dance of creation, preservation, and destruction, emphasizing the cosmic cycle.

4. Krishna’s Words in Mahabharata – In the Anushasana Parva (14.144), Lord Krishna advises Yudhishthira that observing Maha Shivratri with devotion bestows blessings and liberation.

5. Legend of the Hunter – The Shiva Purāṇa narrates the story of a hunter who unknowingly worshiped Shiva by dropping Bilva leaves on a Shiva Linga while hiding on a tree. This act freed him from past sins, signifying the power of sincere devotion.

Thus, Maha Shivratri has been celebrated for millennia, signifying Shiva’s role in the cosmic order and the power of devotion in attaining divine grace.
