How #Dussehra was once a rallying point for the Swadeshi movement. It was on this day in 1905 that #VinayakDamodarSavarkar organised a massive bonfire of imported clothes

The excitement and love thriving in India is by your name)

@khabrimishra #MohanBhagwat bats for women’s empowerment at #Vijayadashami rally: “Regarding women as 'mother of the universe' is fine, but that does not mean we lock them in prayer house or treat them as second-class members in family and shut them in the house," he said. @ShoumojitB reports
@khabrimishra @ShoumojitB "We need to drop such extremes of behaviour and empower women with freedom of action and decision-making in both public and domestic spheres," says #mohanbhagwat at #Nagpur rally. #Dussehra #Vijayadashami
#ShivSena president #UddhavThackeray & #Maharashtra CM #EknathShinde have organised a show of strength on #Dusseshra. But, over 100 years ago, the festival was used to protest against the British & popularise swadeshi

It was on #Dussehra day in 1905 that #VinayakDamodarSavarkar, a student at the Fergusson College in #Pune, organized the 1st such bonfire of imported clothes with stalwarts like #LokmanyaTilak & #ShivramMahadevParanjape & a huge crowd in attendance
क्या #दशहरा के दिन सचमें रावणवध हुआ था?
सामान्यजनो की यह मान्यता है की श्रीरामने #Dussehra के दिन #Ravana का वध किया था। इसी लिए आज के दिन #रावणदहन भी किया जाता है।
लेकिन हमारे कोई भी शास्त्रमें यह नहीं लिखा की रावणवध दशहरा को हुआ था। दशहरा तो छोडो, उसके आसपास भी नहीं हुआ था।

क्रिष्किन्धाकाण्ड सर्ग २६
श्रीराम सुग्रीव को कह रहे है की कार्तिकमास आने के बाद रावणवध के लिए प्रयत्न करना। तब तक तुम महलमें रहकर आनन्द करो।
दशहरा अश्विनमासमें आता है। कार्तिकमास तक तो श्रीराम क्रिष्किन्धामें ही थे। तो उन्होने दशहरे को रावणवध कैसे कर दिया?

दशहरा अश्विनमासमें आता है। कार्तिकमास तक तो श्रीराम क्रिष्किन्धामें ही थे। तो उन्होने दशहरे को रावणवध कैसे कर दिया?
यह सर्ग २७ के श्लोक है। जहाँ पर श्रीराम सुग्रीव से स्पष्ट कह रहे है की वह चतुर्मास के समय तक पर्वत पर निवास करेगे। चारमास समाप्त होने के बाद ही वह रावणवध के लिए प्रयत्न करेगे।
Public celebrations of #Navratri in #Maharashtra began in 1926 & are linked to reformers Prabodhankar Keshav Sitaram Thackeray, Dr #BabasahebAmbedkar & Rao Bahadur S.K. Bole. This was a form of counter-culture against #Ganeshutsav, which was then dominated by #Brahmins
#Mumbai
#Mumbai
Incidentally, #Ganeshutsav was popularised by #LokmanyaTilak in the backdrop of the Hindu-Muslim riots in 1893-94. It soon replaced #Muharram, which was then the most popular festival in the Bombay Presidency, with massive participation from Hindus
The #Ganeshutsav at #Dadar in #Mumbai, saw donations being collected from people across castes. However, the organising committee was dominated by Brahmins, who kept other groups away from it. The singers and religious orators were also Brahmins. In short, they ran the show.
CM Eknath Shinde faction of Shiv Sena has approached #BombayHighCourt opposing the petition of Uddhav Thackeray faction to approach High Court for orders to BMC to grant permission for #Dussehra rally.
@OfficeofUT @CMOMaharashtra @mybmc
@OfficeofUT @CMOMaharashtra @mybmc
Shinde faction application states that the Thackeray group has suppressed relevant facts about the existence of a dispute on who the real @ShivSena is.
The application seeks for a stay on the proceedings before High Court till Election Commission decides on the issue.

Why do we as individuals, as a community, as a nation, as a world revel in maligning the rich and famous.
Why does a part of the collective, a part within each of us, have this need to put someone down.

Esp. when there's an opportunity for the slander of someone successful, or their family; especially if they have made it on their own terms as an 'outsider'. Worse still, if they don't toe the line and are not 'politically correct'. And God help them if they happen to be Muslim.
We grudge the rich their riches, the privileged their privileges, the famous their fame because of our own severe LACK or Scarcity Consciousness that we don't want to take ownership of. "How dare THEY have it all. It's not fair."

జమ్మిచెట్టుకి🌿 ఎందుకంత ప్రాధాన్యత
దసరా సంబరాలు చివరిరోజుకి చేరుకోగానే అందరికీ గుర్తుకువచ్చేది జమ్మిచెట్టు. దసరా సాయంత్రం వేళ జమ్మికొట్టి, ఆ చెట్టు ఆకులను బంగారంగా భావిస్తూ పెద్దల చేతిలో పెట్టి ఆశీస్సులు తీసుకుంటారు

దసరా సంబరాలు చివరిరోజుకి చేరుకోగానే అందరికీ గుర్తుకువచ్చేది జమ్మిచెట్టు. దసరా సాయంత్రం వేళ జమ్మికొట్టి, ఆ చెట్టు ఆకులను బంగారంగా భావిస్తూ పెద్దల చేతిలో పెట్టి ఆశీస్సులు తీసుకుంటారు

బంగారంగా భావిస్తూ పెద్దల చేతిలో పెట్టి ఆశీస్సులు తీసుకుంటారు. చెట్లని దైవంగా పూజించి కొలుచుకోవడం హైందవ సంస్కృతిలో తరచూ కనిపించేదే! కానీ ఈ దసరా రోజుకీ జమ్మి చెట్టుకీ మధ్య అనుబంధం ఏమిటి అన్న ప్రశ్నకు చాలా సమాధానాలే కనిపిస్తాయి.
కాస్త జమ్మి గురించి...
జమ్మి భారతీయులకు కొత్తేమీ కాదు. ఇంకా చెప్పాలంటే భారత ఉపఖండంలోనే ఈ వృక్షం ఉద్భవించిందన్నది శాస్త్రవేత్తల అభిప్రాయం. అందుకనే రుగ్వేదకాలం నుంచే జమ్మి ప్రస్తావన కనిపిస్తుంది. అప్పట్లో ఈ చెట్టుని అగ్నిని పుట్టించే సాధనంగా వాడేవారు.
