It has just been a little over two years since the Supreme Court of India recognized the Hindu claim to the disputed site of Ayodhya and ruled in favor of the rebuilding of the Ram Temple. The original temple was taken down by the Islamic invader Babar more than 500 years ago.
India is dotted with mosques erected after demolishing Hindu temples, and Hindutva associations are determined to reclaim them all. This time they have their eyes on the Gyanvapi Mosque, beneath which lie the ruins of an ancient temple dedicated to the Hindu deity Shiva. Aurangzeb’s troops had pulled down a portion of this 2000-year-old temple in 1669 to make room for a mosque.
The fraying walls of the “mosque,” still flaunting the ethos of the Hindu faith, bear testimony to the magnificent temple it once was. The nomenclature of the mosque is another significant giveaway. Gyanvapi translates to a pond of knowledge in Sanskrit. What are the odds that Aurangzeb, a descendant of the invader Babar, an Islamic jihadi marauder harboring intense hate for the Hindus, would name a mosque he constructed in the language spoken by the Hindu gods? The Gyavapi has been a self-evident Hindu temple all along.
The preceding pseudo-secular governments, with their natural bent towards the Muslim demography, continued to ignore the claims of the Hindu side. But the BJP gaining electoral power in 2014 turned the tables on the Muslim-pandering forces. Last month, responding to a petition by a Varanasi-based lawyer, the Apex court allowed an archaeological survey of the Kashi Vishwanath Temple-Gyanvapi mosque complex.
The third day of the court-ordered survey concluded with the discovery of an ancient monument that the experts in the survey team claimed to be the original Shivalinga (a Hindu structure representing Shiva) of the erstwhile temple. Popular folklore narrated that when Aurangzeb’s military reached Kashi to wreck the Shiva temple, the head priest carried the Shivalinga and jumped into a nearby well. He sacrificed himself to protect the Shivalinga, which reportedly has been retrieved now.
Interestingly, the survey team discovered the Shivalinga-like structure in a well submerged under a water body used as a Wujukhana inside the mosque. A Wujukhana is where Muslims wash their feet, hands, face, ears, and mouth before lining up for prayers.
This finding suggested that the revered ancient Hindu structure was desecrated for over 350 years. Many argue that the Muslims were oblivious to the presence of the Shivalinga in the Wujukhana. A survey team found an item of tremendous religious significance in just three days, and not one among the hundreds of thousands of Muslims who performed Wuju got a hint about its existence in over 300 years?
The Hindu bodies were exhilarated to find the alleged Shivaling and equally shocked to learn about the centuries-long sacrilege of their deity. But unlike those Muslims who assemble into massive murderous mobs, raid villages, and slaughter people on bogus charges of blasphemy, Hindus maintained their calm and remained composed.
One would have thought that the Hindus resorting to peace would further harmony in the society; instead, it only led to the blasphemous degeneracy of the some Muslims: journalists, political analysts, social activists, and politicians all bared their teeth and claws and attacked the benign religious sentiments of the Hindus in the country.
If draining dirty water on a sacred structure wasn’t demeaning enough, communal bigots flooded Twitter and Facebook with their pejorative remarks. News anchor Nagma Sheikh suggested that the Hindus look for their deity in the toilets; “social activist” Waqar H Bhatti likened it to a fountain, and renowned political analyst Saba Naqvi compared the Shivalinga to an atomic research center. Multiple Muslim accounts associated the Shivalinga with the male genital or pits of fruits.
In a similar vein, the Muslim body is adamant in claiming that the structure unraveled by the survey team is in a fountain and not a Hindu structure. The case is sub judice, though experts have rubbished claims of the structure being a fountain.
Despite the abject display of Islamic supremacist depravity, the Hindus have not attacked a single fellow from the Muslim community on charges of blasphemy. Neither have they called for riots or overrun any Muslim property. The collective poise shown by the Hindu community stands in stark contrast to the coordinated and organized barbarity all too many Muslims turn to at the drop of a hat. A recent example is the 2021 anti-Hindu riots of Bangladesh triggered by a mere rumor of Hindus insulting the Koran.
Yet the mainstream media has anointed the Hindus as intolerant and abusive towards the Muslims in the country, while painting the latter as the perennial victims.
Devasur says
Anyone with eyes could see this is a temple, Yet the shameless leftists and mudslimes who still say this is a mosque and MSM shamelessly parrot these lies and portray very tolerant Hindus as intolerant and Muslim savages as tolerant and peaceful.
Basically showing Hindus as Muslims and Hindus as Muslims.
Infidel says
The real truth about them is that they enjoy the fact that mosques were built after razing temples, and they are alarmed that more demands, like the one in Delhi near Qutb Minar, where 27 Vaishnava and Jain temples were demolished, will be made. And they need to be. Sanjay Dixit put a proposal that all the 2000 temples listed in Sitaram Goel’s books “Hindu Temples: what happened to them” should be subjected to factfinding. The Archeological Survey of India opposes changing a lot of them, but this is not the decision of some bureaucrats in Delhi: it should be up to Hindus, Jains, Buddhists and Sikhs to reclaim

Grimly true Infidel. Muslims have built Mosques over Churches, Synagogues, and Temples. They have also seized these places of worship and simply turned them into Mosques.
Ray says
Graven image. You are correct. Also, check on the famous Taj Mahal.
The lower basement levels are sealed shut because there are Hindu paintings/engravings? there proving it was stolen by the Muslims – but do they do anything else but steal, pillage and murder?
Devasur says
Muslims as hindus
Lookmann says
Old photos from ‘The Museum of Fine Arts’ in Houston, USA show how magnificent the temple was in terms of architecture.

Thanks for that link, Lookmann.

The Indian government needs to stop pandering to Leftists both at home and abroad, and repeal the 1991 Places of Worship Act, which was designed to freeze the status of all mosques on India’s independence day, regardless of anything that muslim savages did anytime in history. And Hindus need to start a movement demanding that each and every mosque that was made by demolishing temples be demolished and replaced w/ temples
As for mosques, they have been exposed as madrasas for adults, where nothing but hatred is taught, and which also double as ammo dumps. Just get rid of them all!
Black Sabbath says
Congress party in India is an amalgamation of islamic and communist forces funded by mob, jihadi, and Chinese money. The islamic lawyers are highly paid by this black money. Hindu lawyers fight for the principles and work with meager pay. You can never convince a moslem about whether it is a temple or mosque. You can show 1000 evidences, pictures, videos, and logic. The moslem will continue to deny them because their goal is to destroy all Hindu temples and murder or convert everyone to islam. They worship Aurangzeb, a murdering despot who forced religious conversion and destroyed the Kashi Vishwanath Temple. The moslems want that filthy structure on top of Hindu temples because this is what islam is all about. Hindus are doing right thing by going through legal process and gaining legitimacy. Also, by revealing the survey pictures, all people around the world will know how dirty the islamists are. The temple needs to be restored, and filthy moslem junk needs to be recycled.
Infidel says
Once one has read the islamic texts, it’s obvious that the existence of previous temples/churches/synagogues/gurudwaras/what have you was the very pretext of destroying them and building mosques in their place! So when one is talking to muslim lawyers, they’re gonna pretend to not hear their Hindu counterparts, b’cos they’re operating w/ shariah assumptions. In this case, since the enemy is secular Hindus who have been doing everything from denying the temple to mocking Mahadev, it’s an added burden for the Hindu side. The islamic side doesn’t have such open turncoats in their camp, since they’d successfully cancel them out of existence
But the Hindus will have to agitate, b’cos Supreme Court justices are not above being swayed by the threat of terror. They could easily rule in favor of the muslims simply b’cos they don’t wanna provoke a muslim riot, and they know that Hindus don’t riot. So the Hindu side needs to bring back the spirit of 1992, when they gathered in Ayodhya and demolished the Babri masjid. The same thing, or at least the threat of it, needs to happen here as well. Yogi Adityanath can only do so much, but once India’s elitists know that there is a physical price to be paid for being pro-muslim, they’ll at least be neutral and objective, if not fall in line w/ the Hindu POV

Islam practices segregation and even taxes Infidels whose testimony is worth less in court! That applies to People of the Book i.e. Jews, Christians—the “lucky” ones in this dystopic Iron-age caveman wet dream. Oh yeah, and a descendent of Mohammed has to rule the country! The former rules might be flexible; It depends what level of difficulty you like to play Islam. By the way slavery would be now legal. Pagans were treated worse—and parents can now legally murder their kids for any reason (literally; Called “honor killings”, you may have heard the of it). Their philosophy can never settle for peace, only truces, it’s part of the death-cult aspect of Islam rooted in abrahamic religions. Not compatible with a fair and just civilization, although it has its virtues. The Nazis and Mongols even had admirable features perhaps, despite their gross misuse.
Israel is a medical police state tyranny but they have legitimate claims to Israel and Muslims follow inbreeding hence they go mad eventually.
Ever wonder where ISIS’ mental illness originates from? How they can strap bombs to their own children?
Across the Arab world today an average of 45 percent of married couples are related, according to Dr. Nadia Sakati, a pediatrician and senior consultant for the genetics research center at King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Riyadh.
In some parts of Saudi Arabia, particularly in the south, where Mrs. Hefthi was raised, the rate of marriage among blood relatives ranges from 55 to 70 percent, among the highest rates in the world, according to the Saudi government (Mohammed married his first cousin. It’s a step up though, as the Quran tells us Arab sons and mothers were sleeping together before Islam).

This is especially true in in Pakistan. In the UK Pakistanis are 3% of the population but 30% of the birth defects. There is a reason Muslim pilots have trouble in the air. The Arab world translates just 330 books every year, about 20% of what Greece alone does.In the last 1,200 years of Islam, just 100,000 books have been translated into Arabic, about what Spain does in a single year. Seven out of 10 Turks have never even read a book.
Modern Israel is fascist (covid lockdowns/passports), yet With utmost respect There is no country named Palestine. It’s propaganda. Palestinians were Phoenicians. Arabs use that name the way Bulgarians use the name Macedonia as an excuse for territorial expansion.
Judea: It’s the Jew homeland and Jerusalem is their capital. Israel is one of the freest most advanced countries in the region (and in the world). Their Muslim neighbors have a track record of ethnic cleansing Christians and Jews as well as fellow Muslims who believe differently (or just a good ol’ family feud) and supporting terrorism, etc. Muslims have taken Libya from a secular ruler and are already selling black Africans in Slave markets (something sanctioned in the Koran among other things such as rape and murder, which has been going on in the Islamic world for centuries up to today.
Why didn’t Jordan, Syria, Egypt recognize Palestine before 1967? Who were the Kings, presidents, and rulers of “Palestine”?
The word Filastin, as the country is called in Arabic, is not Palestinian‑Arab in origin (the Arabs of the region rarely used it before 1948) but refers to the biblical “Philistines,” whose name the ancient Romans gave to the country in an attempt to obliterate the Jews’ connection to it.
Jerusalem is mentioned in the Torah over 600 times, and 0 in the Quran. Jews lived in Israel thousands of years ago, and it was called Judea prior to the Roman invasion (while the Muslim religion is fairly new) not only do Muslims have over 50 countries, Jews have 1 yet produce more positively to the world (medicine, technology, etc.) and the fact that Arabs are threatening violence to this move proves it should be in Israel’s hands, as they allow all religions to pray there, while many Arabs encourage and glorify terrorism.
It’s ironic Muslims talk of apartheid in Israel when their religion says don’t let non Muslims build churches and temples (or even repair them) while Muslim sharia says non-Muslims should pay a tax, the Jizya. We see in France and Europe anywhere Muslims become a majority they try intimidating/excluding non Muslims (“no-go zones”). That’s apartheid.
It’s irrational to be attached to any idea out of sentiment. Abrahamic religions have plenty of good, but they are completely irrational. If an alien came to earth and found out about it they would probably be shocked such a developed species could blindly believe such nonsense such as a God who punished innocent beings because Adam & eve ate an apple. It’s as if I put you in jail because your dad murdered someone. Dark age mentality. Also how did millions of species get in an ark when a modern aircraft carrier fits 7500 personnel (and takes years to build)? I can imagine they did a lot of shoveling too as I doubt there were sanitation facilities for the animals. Maybe they held it in for 40 days. If you dare even question the latter your Heavenly Father will ignite you on fire—forever! Holy smokes. Ignorance is the only reason anyone could fall for such priestly blackmail. Islam even teaches inbreeding which is why they have higher per capita birth defects (they follow Mohammed’s example of first cousin marriage. Some villages have only two past names in the Islamic world).
Atheism is ignorant religion like Abrahamic religions.
Same people brought us both. Westerners are just not deep thinkers. They are glorified mechanics at best.
