#Thread on Sarasvatî and related controversies.

The root of the term Sarasvati is sri (सृ)+ asun (असुन्)= saras (सरस्) meaning 'watery substance' + vati वती ie वतुप् स्त्री, meaning 'containing of' = sarasvati which means a lake, a pond, a large water body(stagnant).

"Twitter bans sharing private media without permission", what does that mean?

well that means, if anyone is sharing someone's else phone number, photos, videos, bank account details which is NOT available in any public domain, WITHOUT their permission will be violation.

First of all lets see what is not a violation-
Sharing your own photos, selfies, phone no. email, video is not a violation.

sharing screen shot, SS of gossips, or putting accusations is NOT a violation.

for ex- if my phone number or email is shared on my website & someone else is sharing it on twitter, it will NOT be a violation, however, sharing someone's address on twitter will be violation even if it is mentioned in public domain except for the situation like natural disaster

Another thing is, if anyone is exposing or threatening to expose someone on twitter using their photos videos etc will be considered as violation.

#Thread on mamta banerjee: The uncrowned dictator.

mamta banerjeee who made several headlines in 2005 by throwing papers on the speaker of parliament over the issue of ilegal immigrant, who knew then 14 years after she will have a completely different stand on illegal immigrant.

But, why I’m calling her an uncrowned dictator? Following are the reasons-

1. She swings for power & not for the ideology- she started her career with congress in 970. Then, she aligned with bjp in 1999 and became railway minister, then;

she again aligned with congress for the state election in 2001. Then again she returned to bjp in 2003 and became coal minister in 2004. Then again she joined UPA in 2009 for the parliamentary election. Clear she has no ideology; she is hungry for power just like a dictator.

2. Media is being gagged up- The first thing that every dictator do is gagging up the media. The editor of Anandabazar Patrika, the highly respected and largest-circulated Bangla newspaper, has resigned, with the news emerging four days afterdidi accused the 98-year-old daily of

showing the state govt. in bad light and the editor was summoned by Kolkata Police for allegedly publishing fake news. There are many such incident which shows that media in bangal is under complete control.

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.

ANCIENT BHARAT WAS CALLED VISHWAGURU, AND IT REALLY DESERVED IT.

India had a well developed education system centuries before the westerners arrived and called us uncivilized. Education was always given a great importance in Indian civilisation since times immemorial.

Ancient India had the Gurukulas and Ashramas as the epicentres of the knowledge and enlightenment. Bigger Gurukulas served as the centres of higher education called universities. Besides these universities, temples also emerged as the major learning centres.

Studying the Holy Scriptures, character building, personality development, responsibilities towards self,family and society,discipline and preservation of the ancient culture and heritage were the key embodiments of education.

This kind of education system made ancient India, a centre of knowledge all over the world. Many foreign students came to India for education and India was called the 'Vishwaguru'.
Takshshila and Nalanda were the two prominent universities of ancient India.

But were these only Universities of ancient India?The answer is 'No'.Let's learn about these gems of our education system that flourished across ancient India & be proud.

NALANDA UNIVERSITY
This was the oldest university of ancient India.Situated in Nalanda distt. of Bihar...
