Hindutva - Tumblr Posts
Ladies and gentlemen, my favourite man <33
In the silence of sleep, Vishnu’s veil descends,
Drawing souls into realms where time suspends.
A dream unfolds, like Vaikunth in bloom,
Dimensions shifting in the heart of the gloom.
Maya spins illusions, vast and bright,
As worlds collide in the depth of night.
In this cosmic dance, where nothing’s as it seems,
Vishnu’s hand guides through endless dreams.
Vaikunth appears, a paradise untold,
Yet slips like sand as maya takes hold.
In Vishnu's sleep, truth and illusion blend—
Where one dream ends, another begins again.
everyday i see clueless westerners (especially white people) reblog thinly veiled hindutva propaganda which they wouldn't know cause they know absolutely nothing about what goes on in india. so here are some signs that that the tumblr user you're interacting with is a hindu nationalist:
they either do not acknowledge casteism or claim that caste is a western construct. my personal favourite however is dismissing anyone bringing up caste discrimination by saying that the indian constitution outlaws untouchability. they may also bring up the fact that the prime minister belongs to an other backwards class (obc) so clearly india has moved on from caste and hindutva isn't only for the upper castes. they possess a shallow understanding of caste
harping on about "islamic colonisation" : no, the mughals did not colonise india. when you point this out, they will immediately assume that you think muslim invaders were innocent beings who did nothing wrong, which is very much not what anyone is claiming here
while we're on the topic of "islamic colonisation" they will also refer to the demolishing of muslim sites of heritage and worship and then building hindu temples over them as "decolonisation" (cough cough ram mandir) the hindu right also goes around pretending that they're indigenous to india. this is false
along a similar vein, they will dismiss islamaphobia by bringing up instances of hindu oppression in countries like pakistan and bangladesh. it is true that hindus are persecuted in these two countries, however they are used to fuel their oppression complex, that their upper caste hindu self is under attack in india of all places (think a white christian in the united states). you should be in solidarity with minorities everywhere. it is neither transactional or conditional (note: they will never bring up sri lanka. persecution of hindus exists only when the oppressors are muslim)
claiming that hindu nationalism and hindutva are not the same because hindutva means "hindu-ness". that is only the literal translation of the term. like it or not, they're the same thing
they support the indian military occupation of kashmir. they will call it an integral part of kashmir, one reason which will be "hinduism is indigenous to kashmir." they will also bring up the last maharaja of kashmir signing the instrument of accession as further proof, as if the consent of the people was taken
they're zionists. do i even need to explain this. hindutva is just zionism for hindus
they refer to buddhism and jainism (sikhism too sometimes) as branches of hinduism rather than separate, distinct religions
they condemn any resistance to the indian govt as a burden or terrorism) (like calling the farmers who are currently protesting a hindrance or terrorists. funny how sikhs are the same as hindus when they support hindu causes but terrorists when they resist oppression...)
they call you a pseudo liberal or a fake leftist. i'm telling you, they don't know jackshit. they can't even tell the difference between a liberal and a leftist and call US unread lmao. bonus points if they call you a liberandu or a sickularist 💀
they call india "bharat" when they talk in english. there are in fact multiple indian languages call india bharat or bharatam, but if they say bharat while talking in english, that is absolutely a hindu nationalist no questions asked
please do your due diligence. read up on hindutva. hindu nationalists have already started making gains in the united states, thanks to rich upper caste nris . do not fall for propaganda

Look I won't try to fight u, but by this logic Muslims who do namaaz and Christians who tell greatness of Jesus are also trying to inforce their religion to us 🤷
"no one is asking you to celebrate"
There are jai shri ram rallies going on in literally every fucking suburb
People are causing noise pollution by playing really awful DJ songs about said Ram
Every 2-bit orator is trying to give speeches about the greatness of said God
Both of the above can't be escaped coz they are literally blasting it on loudspeakers
That eyesore of orange colour flags with his face stamped on it is being waved from most houses
What do you call this but forced imposition?
You can't even complain to authorities about noise pollution coz most of the organizers are connected to the ruling party.
A good way of getting verbally mob lynched or called anti national and anti Hindu or anti secular or what not.
For People who are still crying about Ram mandir
This is the pic of mosque that is going to be built on parcel land which will be almost 22 km away from Ram mandir.
The mosque will be named "Masjid Muhammed bin Abdullah", after Prophet Muhammad. It is likely to take three-four years to complete. And from what I've researched it's construction has already started (u can look up to its Wikipedia page).
All I want to say is that please stop now. Enough is enough.
Not bigots trying to excuse a m*rder just because they don't like the victims religion
If you ever felt like an idiot then remember that this guy (Mohammad Zub*ir)
received an award for "Communal harmony" by M. K. St*lin and Udh*yanidhi St*lin (not even surprised)
Irony in this whole situation is that he was responsible for Brutal m*rd*r of Kanhaiya Lal (A tailor from Rajasthan in India)
And for Spreading fake news that CAA is against Muslims
And the givers of this award are the people who literally called Hinduism a "decease"
Him receiving this award is literally like Os*ma receiving award for "peace"
Don't just ignore this post if you have even a bit of emotions and reblog it to spread awareness

Chill guy's this girl don't know situation going on POK 😔
Aaaaaah yesss, a Pakistani pseudo liberal talking about Hindutva, zionism and White supremacy.
You know it's a fuked up situation when a movie trailer of it gives you shiver
"go one by one on her or she will die"
I am a proud hindu so i was angry about what happened to kashmiri hindus. but after reading up on it and the history of kashmir in general, one thing is really obvious: india failed kashmir (all of them not just hindus). It’s why I support their right to self-determination. I am based in America and I know several punjabis here who don’t consider themselves indian because their family/community was directly impacted by the 1984 anti sikh pogroms. ig i’m saying india has failed a lot of people (esp minorities) so if we are not from their ethnic group, we don’t get to selfishly claim them or impose our will on them. like i’m a kannadiga and i hate the imposition of hindi in my home state and while this is not even slightly comparable to the violence and trauma faced by kashmiris, punjabis and other groups, i would hate for a non-kannadiga (esp a hindi speaker) telling me how to feel and having the final say in the matter so kashmiri self determination just makes sense to me.
this just my two cents hope this didn’t sound rude because that’s not my intention.
I know you didn't mean to be rude here, but what you're saying is actually really out of touch.
I hope you're aware of what happened in Kashmir to Kashmiri pandits. Pakistan has dreamed of Kashmir since it was formed. That's why they wrongfully attacked India the first time, securing only POK which sadly was due to the UN, and weak Indian political power. Since then, they have infiltrated our country, and approximately 300,000 Kashmiri Pandits are reported to have left the region due to constant persecution from the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) and other militant groups, like Hizbul-Mujahideen (HM). In 1989, radical Islamists initiated an insurgency, fueled by covert support from Pakistan.
The party at the time did its best to hide this, and stifle it as much as possible, this got an ounce of coverage and light when The Kashmir Files was released
Hindus have 5000 years of recorded history with the land, that Islamists claim has “always been Muslim land”. "Kashmir" is literally named after Rishi Kashyap, if you're aware. On 19, January 1990 mosques blared out the infamous "convert leave or die" and finished their mission of converting the entirety of Kashmir to an Islamic state. Our pandits were told to leave their wives and daughters behind if they wanted to escape alive.
They're still living like refugees in their country, and now thanks to the scrapping of sec 370, things have taken a turn for the better.
Many Muslims of Kashmir still retain their Hindu surname. It was a deliberate attempt to wipe Hindus out that Islamists achieved and now THAT'S the free Kashmir they want, this slogan isn't promising actual Kashmiris that were displaced from their homes back, this slogan is furthering the agenda to chew Kashmir off India's map - the one true dream.
A similar approach is taken by Khalistanis, they aren't asking for Lahore, you know, the capital of Maharaja Ranjeet Singh, they're demanding INDIA to give Punjab away. They are funded by Pakistan as well that's why they can't say anything about Sikh treatment in Pakistan. That's why they can't say anything about Gurudwaras converted to garbage bins. You obviously, being far away, aren't aware of what's going beneath the surface, they have vandalized various Hindu Temples.
They take the name of their Guru who sacrificed his life for India, while they stomp on the flag of India.
In theory, I guess it sounds easy to say "Well, disagreements are flaring up, so let's just split and give them their own thing". But this isn't how it works. Compromise and collaboration is how decisions are made in a democracy. This is our motherland, the last time we split was painful as fuck. The only reason India didn't fall apart after Independence is because of the formation of linguistic states.
I lived in Bangalore for the majority of my childhood, and I left 2 years before the entire language debacle began. I don't know if you know, but now Kannadigas are getting violent if anyone speaks Hindi. They demand you to speak in Kannada even if you don't know how.
You're based in America, so I'm not holding this against you, but I'm begging you, please do more research.

If he has billions of haters then I am one of them. If he have hundreds of haters then I am one of them. If he only have ten haters then I am one of them and if he only have one hater then I am that hater. And it's not possible for him to have no haters because he still gonna have haters even after he d!es
F#ck him and all his d!ckr!ders who are gonna protect him and like him. F#CK YOU ALL
#PROUD-MOH*MM*D-ZUB*IR-HATER
They are defending Babur as if he was their mommy's brother. Like bro no! He freaking killed soo many people and soo many people suffered because of him including ur ancestors. Then why are you soo obsessed with defending him!? It's literally like people who side with r#pist saying it was victims fault because she was asking for it.
Like why are they obsessed with linking themselves with a freaking murderer??
This person is just so flipping dumb and ignorant that I can’t even form a reply in my head for their claims. Like literally so so so so ignorant and dumb.
But here we go— (I’ll do my best to explain it as if I’m explaining stuff to a 5 year old cuz that’s the level of understanding that we are dealing with here)
First of all to understand decolonisation we must first make sure that we know what is Colonisation.
So what is colonisation?
- the act of taking control of an area or a country that is not your own, especially using force, and sending people from your own country to live there.
Now that we’ve established what is colonisation lets move on to colonisers who came in as invaders and remained on Indian soil for more than 800 years -
The Islamic invaders were ruthless suppressers of this land and it’s culture. They not only destroyed hindu places of worship but also Sikh, Jain and Buddhist places of worship.
Most of the time the destruction of temples and hindu structures was followed by a raising of an Islamic mosque in its place.
These “mosques” are not your usual Islamic places of worship but symbols of colonisation and they represent the oppressors that came from outside.
And taking them down and reclaiming OUR HOLY LAND LIKE LITERALLY OUR ANCESTRAL HOLY LANDS IS NOT DESECRATION OF MUSLIM PLACES OF WORSHIP BECAUSE THESE PALCES WERE NEVER INHERENTLY ISLAMIC AND THE HINDUS ALWAYS WORSHIPED HERE AND NEVER STOPPED FIGHTING FOR IT.
also you are so shamelessly dismissing the Ram Janmbhumi as if it isn’t one of the holiest sites in Hinduism?? This is just as important to us as Mecca and Medina are for muslims!!!! Hello???! Tf is wrong with you?
How skewed does your perception has to be to think like that??
you’re literally saying every Islamic place of worship matters but hindu places of worship don’t? Especially hindu places of worship that are so important to the faith? Like it’s literally the birth place of lord Ram!!! What are you smoking? Muslims have Mecca and medina outside India. For us hindus THIS IS ITTTT!!!! Why is this not getting inside your thick skull??? (I’m literally so pissed off rn)
Also mosques are not house of god as you implied, they are a congregational space for prayer. It’s blasphemous according to Islam to refer to a masjid as a “house of god” i wish you had learnt that at least.
And think about this - tomorrow if hindu armies invade Saudi and take over Mecca and Medina and destroy the holiest Islamic structures there and build their temple and years later the Muslims try to reclaim it, they will be doing the wrong thing? NO! They would have every right to.
Please get a brain replacement surgery.
And I don’t even wanna know what crap you’ve been reading about and how it relates to hindus cuz seriously you’re the dumbest Tumblr blog I’ve come across so far.
Good riddance.
