Also invited on this day are the Sikh childhood friends of my brother-in-law, three or four, with their families (he only has Sikh friends. A Hindu crept in later). The other time they are invited is on Navami (spicy non-veg. meal after the fast). I have grown old seeing that.

An excerpt from the second video:
"Surprised to see your national flag fluttering in your own kingdom? What will happen when you see Greek flags fluttering in your kingdom? The Western world has given birth to just one son of [a] god (referring to Alexander), but this land has given birth to millions! This is the land where men are given the opportunity to become gods! We are the descendants of the gods themselves! Therefore, don't let this land be disgraced by by a destroyer's deeds! ... Every inch of Takshashila belongs to Bharat. No one person can lay claim to it, Prince Ambhi!"
Prince Ambhi's impotence reminds me of the many separatist forces plaguing India. It's also a reminder of the anti-nationalist forces of India's "progressive wing", who'd rather sell their motherland to the highest bidder just to see their warped ideals come to fruition.

Please read this whole article: Narendra Modi: the End of Slavery and a civilizational victory - The Rediscovery of India.

Sure, sure. I will read all articles and links that you mention. You might read this which I posted in another forum:
"Posted: That said, Aupmanyav, please don't tell us that Modi will fix all that in your country, and that the BJP has had only a few years so far to do so. The Congress Party has not started out the corrupt and nepotist body it has eventually become, and there is nothing that indicates your current government won't follow in its footsteps.
Aup. replied: I promise, I won't say that (He has promised but he has to prove it). Although BJP headed the government in 1999 but it was a motley group of some 24 parties. Now Modi has an absolute majority. Secondly, in 1999, Prime Minister Vajpayee allowed his foster son-in-law and others to take advantage of power. Modi is unencumbered. He married but soon separated from his wife to work for his Hindu organization (RSS). He has no intimate contact with his family too. They are a lower middle class family. Jashodaben (i.e., Sister Jashoda, the Gujarati way of calling a woman) then took up teaching. Of course, she did not marry again and is happy for his achievements (Three times Chief Minister of Gujarat and then the all vanquishing juggernaut Prime Minister of India). She manages with a pension of some US$234 per month. So, there is a difference. Indian Prime Minister gets a monthly salary of US$2,600."
Narendra Modi and India's Estranged First Lady, the Rajosana Primary School where Jashodaben taught. Most of her pupils were muslims.

I am taking a break from RF. The new layout is, sadly, not what I hoped for. And I lost many frubals (I lost like 50+). Hopefully, RF gets back to looking like how it did earlier today. It looked much more professional then, more refined and organized. This ... yeah, I don't know what this is. It was said that something similar to the older layout will come out in the days to come, sometime soon. Until then, I'm out. Take care everyone. It's been a real pleasure.

Please continue with RF, we will give you many frubals. It takes time time to adjust to new things, but change is the law of the universe. I hope what you have written is only in jest, or is it zest? You can still indent passages, why leave? We are already impoverished by absence of Jaskaran.
Oh, I lost my macrons too. Now, that is not fair. They have made me a new member. Sort of rebirth! Thanks, RF.

Yeah, they are. They even changed them to "likes" for the new layout. Speaking of which, I lost a handful of them myself.
Please don't go. Things won't be the same around here without your presence (I actually do mean that). We will A.) suck it up and get used to the design or B.) they may change it back to the old one or at least to something more user friendly.
My Lakshmi-Narayan pendant finally came in! It's a bit smaller than I thought it would be, and I was hoping the background would be a little more blue, but I'm happy with it overall. It's a lot more detailed than the pic would make it appear to be; as I took this pic on my rather outdated phone.

Namaste,
