1/n #SadarPranam to every Indian Marxist.

As we celebrated 203rd Birth Anniversary of #KarlMarx, I thought of bringing forth how lowly he thought of India while justifying British Rule upon us.

Read the thread.

2/n I'll first cite excerpts from "The British Rule in India" by Karl Marx published in the New-York Herald Tribune on June 25,1853.

Marx makes it very clear that he never believed in "Golden Past of India."

So, you get it where Marxist Historians have based their notions from.

3/n Karl Marx calls replacement of Hindu Spinner & Weaver's as semi-barbarian & semi civilized community.

He saw their removal by British as the only social revolution ever heard in Asia.

PS: Marx appeared highly racist

4/n Then Karl Marx goes on to humiliate Hindu beliefs of worshiping Hanuman, Cow & nature.

He hints that how British were eradicating these beliefs.

The great philosopher, Marx was so blinded by faith of Man being supreme, could not understand depth of nature worshiping.

5/n Further Marx states, "England, it is true, in causing a social revolution in Hindostan..."

He found it to be an important revolution to awake Asia & then quotes Goethe to romanticize, the India's plight.

Thread.

Recently, Harsimrat Kaur @HarsimratBadal_ claimed in parliament that Guru Tegh Bahadur protected the religion of Hindus despite of being a Non-Hindu. And Hindus owe a huge favor to others.

In this thread, I will show that Guru Tegh Bahadur was every inch a Hindu!

Let us begin with some contemporary sources.

Guru Tegh Bahadur visited the holy Triveni at Prayaga in 1662 CE.

This visit is documented in contemporary Bhat Vahi records.

Unlike those unpublished "bhat vahis", this one was published by Sikh historian Madanjit Kaur (1978)

This Bhat Vahi was signed by Guru Tegh Bahadur.

The content of the letter is particularly striking.

Guru Tegh Bahadur calls himself a devotee of Naina Devi.

Note. A devotee of Naina Devi. He does not mention Akal Purakh or Waheguru.

In the record, Guru Tegh Bahadur identifies himself as Sodhi Khatri by Varna and Kaushish by gotra.

This is exactly how the followers of orthodox Hinduism identify themselves to this date!

Further, Guru Tegh Bahadur appoints a brahmin purohit named Bhoj Raj.

He orders Sodhis of his line and all his Sikh followers to obey the aforementioned Brahmin Purohit.

This practice of appointing purohits is just what is referred to by some people as "Brahmanical Hinduism"
