Very good article by someone writing under the handle Jataayu* on how Hindoo society
a. has been facilitating reconversions since the early islamaniac invasions and
b. has generated Hindoo manuals on how to do the purification properly (outlining the necessary rituals) since about that early time.
* NOOOoooooo, *I've* always eyed the username Jataayu. Fine, very well, the person's picture looks cuddly so I will let it pass, just this once. (Where are his Hindoo markings though, what's a Hindoo without markings?) But am reserving Jaambavaan - all spellings. "I called it first." In fact, I call all animal names AND good-rAkShasa/hero names from our texts - most especially Hanumaan/Anjaneya (all names) and Ghatotkacha (all spellings). Phew. Calling things is more powerful than the law.
Just kidding. Except about the Jaambavaan, Hanuman and Ghatotkacha bit.
2. What's wrong with this:

Then, by logical extension of what the writer - one Sankrant Sanu - has written here, all those who worship death are worshipping Yama Dharmaraja (like in the islamaniac accusation against Modi) and all those who worship Shiva are worshipping "destruction" etc.
[The answer is No on all counts, by the way.]
And just for the record: the traditional Vaidika Hindoos doing homas to Kamadeva* or to Kubera (but Sankrant left out the more obvious Lakshmi, perhaps because he knew that his logic didn't hold) are not worshipping money or sex/sensory pleasure. *Nor are those who worship Amman as carrying the panchabaana.
Just like the Hellenes who adored the God Eros (Cupid) and hence worshipped his sacred images with rites were not "therefore" worshipping sex either. [But I doubt people understand this statement either. The time has come when even allusions to Greek religion will fail on the diseased Indian wannabe-Hindu brains.]
And also: it's not seculars/atheists who worship Kubera and Kamadeva, only HindOOs do.
I know it's hard/impossible for modern "Hindus" to understand the above. Hence no explanation provided. Just a simple denial of their pretence - seen in their inane statements - that they "get" it or that their opinions are in any way representative of Hindoo religion/heathenism. No more than the many Donigers' are.
Of course, Sankrant Sanu's article has been the recipient of a lot of applause from similarly new-agey Indian "Hindus" in the comments section. Not one objection. Typical.
Don't know if Sanu (and applauding fans) was ever on BR, but certainly fits with the class of unheathen de-heathenised wannabe-heathen entities dubbed "BR types".
Q: Why do supposedly "Hindu" readers accept lectures on HindOO religion from de-heathenised entities? Is it because they are subvertible OR already subverted? (One of the two. No other answers even possible, obviously.)
And another Q: will these people be using the "Hindu" label - and their pseudo-Hinduism - to try to mate with (marry) actual Hindoos? <= And that's another important reason why gangrene must be identified and avoided like the plague by Hindoo society. I mean, let's be honest, would any conscious Hindu let their son/daughter/nephew/niece/grandchild marry anything that had unheathen, de-heathenised, anti-heathen notions like this? It would be the same as marrying them off to entities who, in *similar* vein, declare that "Krishna is a womanizer" etc (as Elstian "Hindus" do, even by way of "Qui tacet consentire videtur").
There is just one rule - implicitly adhered to by all heathens: that those who don't know the Gods would Shut Up on the subject else parrot Tradition on it. That is, if they *are* heathen. In contrast, only de-heathenised would presume to lecture* on what they don't (and never will) know, and who will invariably subvert others to their own nonsense. Such gangrene.
* Pre-emptively: facts are NOT a "matter of opinion" and hence "open to debate". Facts are either so or not so. So de-heathenised entities can't disguise and excuse their ignorant lectures on the Gods as being their "opinions" and invoke "the right to express their opinion" because such an argument is irrelevant.

A good article on how Hindoos have reconverted Indians since the islamic invasions - with purification rites specifically for this:

Quote:The idol is that which is at the center of your mindââ¬â¢s attention. The most powerful idols are not physical. The concepts the mind clings to are the most powerful idols. Think you are ââ¬Åsecularââ¬Â, ââ¬Åatheisticââ¬Â? For you money may be most important, that is what you obsess over. You can make an image of Kubera, the god of wealth, and worship it, it is the same thing. Kubera is already in your mind and he is the object of your worship. Or it may be sex instead. Then you worship Kama deva, the god of sensory pleasure. It is just a way to name it.
