1. The same “gang” of the Proximal Origin paper
https://t.co/Xmp20I58AQ
in action again (only Lipkin is missing, who knows why) to push once more faulty arguments in support of SARS2’s natural

 2. The newly identified Cambodian, Thai and Japan sequences are presented as evidence that some odd features of the SARS2’s genome are natural because present in other natural viruses, as RaTG13 and pangolin CoV were used in The Proximal paper.
3. First the FCS. @ydeigin and I wrote a preprint where we show that the claimed partial FCS insertion in RmYN02 is highly doubtful and the same applies to the new bat CoV sequences
https://t.co/0Goapx6cXj
https://t.co/5Z4Ndca98t
4. They present again only an amino acid biased alignment as in the Zhou paper
https://t.co/i9OZchD4LT
“adjusted by visual inspection” to push their false conclusion that all these CoVs have a partial FCS insertion at the S1/S2 junction and the FCS of SARS2 is therefore natural
5. SARS2 remains the only Sarbecovirus with a functioning FCS, as we describe here:
https://t.co/viqvfzv1Xa
and that can be easily inserted with the Seamless technology.
6. The special RBD of SARS2 was claimed to be natural in The Proximal paper because present in 2 pangolin CoV samples. Now we know we can’t trust those samples
https://t.co/U2qvG3tXBG
7. The new Cambodian CoV shows now a similar RBD claimed to possibly be able to bind to human ACE2, but not yet verified. It should be also demonstrated that this RBD is not the product of cell passage, as supposed to be for pangolin CoV.
https://t.co/cNEwlgtnBb
8. Important to notice that the presence of the QTQTNS motif might be the result of cell passage in presence of TMPRSS2 and Cathepsin
https://t.co/1D7iVZc8Md
9. This motif is often deleted together with the FCS or alone in cell cultures without selection pressure:
https://t.co/GFrrxzCvbq
10. “Notably, the QTQTNS motif near the S1/S2 cleavage site is present in Cambodian bat coronavirus, RaTG13, GD Pangolin coronavirus and SARS-CoV-2. None of these sequences were determined until after the COVID-19 pandemic began.” Exactly, this is very weird.
11. I find alarming that “experts” are retweeting false information from another “expert” to support their conclusions, for example that the QTQTNS motif arose multiple times as proof that SARS2 is natural:
https://t.co/pBF4ZDqNat
12. And even if the Cambodian and the pangolin CoV are natural, what do they show? RaTG13 is still much closer to SARS2. But the cave where it has been collected is not accessible to independently collect and analyse the samples there.
https://t.co/DjbJm40hni
13. Another faulty observation: “On the contrary, SARS-CoV-2 binds efficiently to ACE2 of several animal species thereby invalidating claims that the SARS-CoV-2 RBD was either selected or specifically optimized for human ACE2 binding”.
14. But the binding of SARS2 is still best for human ACE2!
https://t.co/lp9C8vtBWg
https://t.co/viqvfzv1Xa
And of course, after millions of passages in humans the virus can mutate to bind even better than possibly obtained in cell culture or humanized mouse.
15. The best is their conclusion:” Newly sequenced sarbecoviruses from bats captured in Cambodia, Thailand and Japan possess different combinations of spike motifs in the RBD and the S1/S2 junction that were first described in SARS-CoV-2...
16. ..These observations are consistent with the natural origin of SARS-CoV-2 and strongly inconsistent with a laboratory origin.” Not at all, it is still very possible that the FCS of SARS2 has been artificially inserted and the RBD optimized by passage to strongly bind to hACE2
17. I hope to be proven wrong, but I fear to see this shameful preprint published in Nature again. Honestly, these authors should be interrogated. Why are they trying to push so hard a natural origin of SARS2 using faulty arguments?
18. Is this because of the fear of losing grants for their research?:” In this regard there have been suggestions that scientists should stop investigating the diversity of coronaviruses in bats and other animals (Baker, 2021)...
19. ...We contend that the world should do the opposite if we are to be better prepared to prevent the next pandemic of an emergent coronavirus.” Or do they have other reasons?

#Thread Two divine forms of Khatu Shyam ji...


On the day of Amavasya, devotees get the darshan of Shyam Baba in Shyam varan (black color). In ordinary days, the form of Baba is saffron. The reason for this is a custom. The real head of Shyam Baba which had appeared from Shyam Kund is of Shyam varan.


Every day Shyam Baba's grand Shringar is done by Pujaris. The main part of Shyam Baba's shringar is Tilak. This Shringar is done by the members of Nij Mandir sevaks. The sevaks of the Nij Mandir do sandalwood tilak to Baba everyday in the auspicious time.


This Divine Tilak is applied from the forehead to the nose. When Baba is given a bath by sevaks, this tilak comes off. Then in the auspicious time, the sevaks again apply tilak to Baba.


There is no auspicious time on the Amavasya. Because of this, tilak is not done on that day. That's why devotees have darshan of Shyam Baba on the Amavasya only in the actual real form (Shyam Swaroop). Baba's tilak is done on Amavasya only on the day of Deepawali.

EVOLUTION OF CROWNS

The ancient Indian kings called a head crown as a Mukut and it would mostly constitute of a golden ornamental headgear like an oval cap with gems.

Sometimes it would also include a halo circle to show the divinity of the king

1/7


As it was considered that kings were appointment by the gods themselves. Example the kings of mewar considered themselves to be the ‘Diwan of eklingji')

But in most cases very few Mukut with halo effect have been found.

2/7

Samudragupta in the gupta era coin. You can see the helmet like headwear on him.

Till gupta era the solid golden head wear was used in most days of the monarch.

But since the onset of 8th century it reduced in usage and was now used only as a ceremonial headwear.

3/7


Whereas earlier the Maharaja had to wear the mukut whenever his court was in session.

Still mukut was being used prominently for ceremonial activities till recent times.

Maharaj Dahir of Sindh👇

4/7


But as times past the style of headwear also changed.

The kings mostly wore turbans ordained with pearls and gems while rarely anyone wore a true Mukut after 16th century.

WEAPONS OF MAHADEV

Sarvaripati Shiva is one of the most fearsome manifestations of Mahadev. Assigned with destroying all of the universes at the end of time, Shiva is one of the most fearsome warriors. He is the Mrityunjaya.
Here are some weapons associated with him:


TRISHULA: the 3 pointed blades denote creation, maintenance, and destruction or the 3 Kalas – Past, Present and Future. They also represent 3 Gunas – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas).
Shiva’s trishul can only be stopped by Shiva himself.
@onlyonenetra @DetheEsha


Trishul is also said to represent Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna. These are the three basic nadis – the left, the right and the central – in the pranamaya kosha, or the energy body of the human system.
@iamkamyabuch @unever_followme


PARASHU: axe with 4 cutting edges which Shiva gave to Parashurama. In his anger, Parashurama used the parashu to get rid of the all the Earth’s tyrannical kshatriya caste twenty-one times over.
@harshasherni


CHANDRAHASA SWORD: The divine sword Chandrahasa literally means ‘the laughter of the moon’. Ravana gave this sword to Indrajit on different occasions especially to fight against Devas.
GIRISH: A special sword of Shiva with unique characteristics.

SRI THIRUNARAYANA PERUMAL, MELKOTE (KAR)

Known as Dakshin Badri, Thiru Narayanapuram is one of the four famous Swayambu Kshetrams, the other three being Srirangam, Kanchipuram and Tirupati.
The presiding diety is Cheluva Narayana Swamy/ Selva Pillai/ Rama Priyan.


Once, Sri Rama gave his aradhana murthi of Sri Ranganatha, to Raja Vibhishana on his request. So he was left without a murthi for his daily pujas. Brahma is said to have provided the murti of Selva Pillai to Rama who later passed this on to his sons, Lava and Kusa.


When Kusa’s daughter married a Yadava prince, this murthi moved to the lunar dynasty from solar.

It is said that the utsav murthi got the name Selva Pillai due to Sri Ramanuja.
Once, a Sultan took away this murthi and Sri Ramanuja went in its search to the Sultan’s palace.

From today, we will memorize the names of 27 Nakshatras in Vedic Jyotish to never forget in life.

I will write 4 names. Repeat them in SAME sequence twice in morning, noon, evening. Each day, revise new names + recall all previously learnt names.

Pls RT if you are in.

2

Today's Nakshatras are:-

1. Ashwini - अश्विनी

2. Bharani - भरणी

3. Krittika - कृत्तिका

4. Rohini - रोहिणी

Ashwini - अश्विनी is the FIRST Nakshatra.

Repeat these names TWICE now, tomorrow morning, noon and evening. Like this tweet if you have revised 8 times as told.

3

Today's Nakshatras are:-

5. Mrigashira - मृगशिरा

6. Ardra - आर्द्रा

7. Punarvasu - पुनर्वसु

8. Pushya - पुष्य

First recall previously learnt Nakshatras twice. Then recite these TWICE now, tomorrow morning, noon & evening in SAME order. Like this tweet only after doing so.

4

Today's Nakshatras are:-

9. Ashlesha - अश्लेषा

10. Magha - मघा

11. Purvaphalguni - पूर्वाफाल्गुनी

12. Uttaraphalguni - उत्तराफाल्गुनी

Purva means that comes before (P se Purva, P se pehele), and Uttara comes later.

Read next tweet too.

5

Purva, Uttara prefixes come in other Nakshatras too. Purva= pehele wala. Remember.

First recall previously learnt 8 Nakshatras twice. Then recite those in Tweet #4 TWICE now, tomorrow morning, noon & evening in SAME order. Like this tweet if you have read Tweets #4 & 5, both.
