not so friendly reminder with diwali coming up that the swastika (swuhs-theek-ahh) is of vedic origin, and it's a symbol of well-being, auspiciousness, and prosperity in hinduism, jainism, and buddhism. it's still common in nepal, mongolia, china, japan, and, most famously, india.
it's been around since 500 BC, and germany appropriated it, making it a symbol of hate.
the symbol on the right? THIS is not offensive. it's stolen culture. please be fully informed before you make any accusations this upcoming holiday season.

First of all, I am not a girlie. Second of all, do you even have any idea about archaeology yourself? Catherine B. Asher has proved those iconography found at Ayodhya are of Shaivite temples not Vishnuite. Of course you'd be worried about the future academia who are smart enough to burst your communal bubble. Apparently your Internet gyan is more reliable than actual historians and archeologists lmao
So scwary “social science uni student” Of course a foreign “historian” is more reliable than the supreme court and the Indian archeologists who have worked and shown that this was a hindu temple. And Shaivite or not thank you for accepting it was hindu in nature and that the mosque was indeed occupying temple land. Then indeed you should accept the very common feature of islamic colonisation is razing revered temples of existing culture and building a mosque on top of it? Or do you have to wait for a nod from a white person?

When Vasuki roamed the earth ~
Tumblr media
Archeologists have found the fossils of a giant snake bigger than the Titanoboa in the state of Gujarat, India.
The snake fossil was over 15 meters in length, making it the biggest.
They have named it Vasuki Indicus after Vasuki, the king of nagas from Hinduism.

Although the specific diet of Vasuki is unknown, other fossils discovered in the vicinity show that the snake coexisted with prehistoric whales, catfish, turtles, crocodiles, and other wetland creatures, which may have been its food source.

Desi Culture is over-feeding every guest that steps foot in the house but also (trying very hard) to not accept food when you go to someone’s house
