Valentine's day truly draws inspiration from ancient sanskrit texts !


Sanskrit is one of the oldest languages of the world. Though none of the saffron goons of india really care about surviving sanskrit(though they seem to be quite eager to curb the independance of female citizens of their country in the name of culture).. I am well versed in sanskrit and I love reading old ancient sanskrit plays.
Plays were a popular form of Sanskrit literature back them.
Let us sample a few old indian love stories..Truly, lovers meeting in secret, was so common back then,a true hallmark of ancient india dating practices..Now, anyone who has read the scriptures would instantly understand that lovers and their rendezvous were very common back then.
Infact , even sita mata got married to Lord Rama during a swayamvar ceremony.
SWAYAMVAR literally translates into one own groom , as in walking around examining groups of suitors and then deciding whom she wants to marry.So, essentially in Ancient India, women were the choosers..they took their pick.Unlike what the goons want us to believe in the stories of Modern day safffron taliban of INdia..
The modern day Saffron extremists are misquoting and misinterpreting Indian culture in their own ignorant manner and looks like they have never read any sanskrit scriptures at all.Here is a sampling of ancient Indian culture.
ABHIGNANASHAKUNTALAM-- A TALE OF A LOVE STORY BETWEEN A KING AND THE DAUGHTER OF A SAGE..
THEY GET MARRIED IN A PRIVATE CEREMONY CALLED GANDHARVA VIVAHAM-WHERE ONLY BRIDE AND GROOM ARE WITNESS.. .SHE CONCIEVES HIS CHILD.. MEANWHILE THE KING REGAINS HIS MEMORY.YOU SEE, HE HAD BEEN ROMANCING HER DURING A BOUT OF AMNESIA..AND SO THE TALE MOVES ON
More works to look up if you are truly interested in sanskrit literature would be
Mritchakatikam, Meghadootham. etc
ofcourse, many of you do know the all so famous 'Kamasutra' which goes ahead and describes in detail the art of sexuality and love making..Need we say more ?
Also a lot of indian scriptures from very old describe madira pan..alchohol consumption.
So, truly, even alchohol consumption is NOT A WESTERN IMPORT AT ALL.
Alchohol consumption has been so far far back in history , that attributing it to the west and modernization is plain ignorance.
