Hindu Scriptures List

To list Hindu Scripture is an impossible task.

For example, the Ramayana has over 1600 versions!

We have Languages , other than Sanskrit, of which we are familiar with, we have Tamil , which has innumerable texts of Religious importance.

The other Indian Languages, at least 18 of them are quite rich and they have their texts.

I am furnishing a List which is indicative of the Ocean that is Hinduism.

This may be considered as a starting point.

Corrections suggestions for improvement welcome.

Collector Removes Hindu Symbols Upaveeda Sindoor

This has not happened in Abu Dhabi ,Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan or Pakistan.

This took place in Sitharkottai, Ramanathapuram district ,Tamil Nadu...

tudents sporting tilak on their foreheads and amulets on their bodies were stopped by the Physical Instruction teacher of a Government-aided minority institution before they entered the school premises.

The sacred threads and rakshas (amulets) worn for protection round the necks or arms were cut off, and the sindoor, tilak on the foreheads erased.

What s most painful is that the Collector who ordered thus is one Nanadakumar, presumed to be a Hindu!

Read this report.

None of the Newspapers, TV channels, let alone the Secular Media reported this or reported in such a way that no one notices it!

This is not the first time of such incidents happening , the media keeping mum on such incidents and the Government taking no action.
