Jains challenging Ekantada Ramayya to prove superiority of Shiva
Jains challenged Shiva Devotee to cut his head
and bring back to life,
The Shiva devotee agreed on condition that jains will accept shivaism
As per myth Ekantada Ramayya beheads himslef and brings himself back to life but jains refuse to get converted leading to riots agasint jains
Just a myth alas!

Wishing everyone a very Happy Gautam Swami Nirvana Kalyanak!
Today is a very auspicious day for the Jain community.
On this day, Gautam Swami, the first and closest disciple of Bhagwan Mahavir, attained Nirvana (moksha), meaning freedom from the cycle of birth and death.
May we all learn from his life and teachings and follow the path of knowledge, kindness and spirituality.
Jai Jinendra! 🙏🏻

While Melkote today is dominated by Sri Vaishnava traditions—largely due to the influence of the 11th-12th century philosopher Ramanujacharya—Jainism was the center before the advent of Ramanujacharya. Below, I'll outline the key historical threads tying Jains to Melkote, drawing from inscriptions, legends, and scholarly accounts.
Vaishnavas(Hindus) start to kill Jains and make Jains leave their temple at Anegondi, Hosapattana, Penugonda , Kallaha (present-day Kalya), Tirumala (Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh), Peruma Kovil (Kanchipuram) and Thirunarayanapura (Melukote). Kallya shasana clearly records this .
Then Bukka Raya made a treaty with the Jains and the Vaishnavas. In that treaty, he took the tax for each jain head from the Jains and gave protection to the Jains.
Locals links Melkote's hills (Yadugiri and Sandigiri) to ancient Jain lore. The town is said to have been a site of ascetic practice for Jains. Inscriptions from the foothills mention grants to Jain scholars, suggesting Melkote was part of a broader Jain educational network before Vaishnavism's rise.
Melkote hosted Jain scholars and traders , contributing to its economy through silk weaving and agriculture. Ruins of small basadis (now integrated into Hindu temples).
Today, Melkote has no active Jain temples, but its history is acknowledged in The Academy of Sanskrit Research (est. 1978) preserves manuscripts touching on Jain-Vaishnava interactions.
Jain communities dwindled but survived in pockets; nearby Srirangapatna saw the repurposing of 101 Jain temples' stones for Hindu expansions around the 16th century.
Both Aratipura and Melkote (Melukote) were flourishing centers of Jainism.
The site, now an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI)-protected area spanning 250 acres, features two granite hillocks-Savanappana Gudda (or Shravana Betta) and Kanakagiri (or Chikka Betta)-dotted with ponds, loose sculptures, and temple ruins.Excavations by ASI in October-November 2015 unearthed remains of 12 Jain basadis (temples) on Kanakagiri hill, along with scattered idols of Tirthankaras (e.g., Parshvanatha and Padmavati) and yakshis (guardian deities).
All this destroyed during and after the time of Ramanujacharya.
Mysore Gazetteer, Volume V, Part II, Page No. 1053. discusses the anointing ceremony of the Gomateshwara statue and includes a historical anecdote about the Hoysala king Vishnuvardhana's conversion to Vaishnavism under the influence of Ramanujacharya. It mentions a legend that Ramanujacharya supporters mutilated the gomateshwara statue by cutting off a finger as an act of defiance against Jainism, which was later restored.
Similar research needs to be done at Melukote.
Fast forward Tipu Sultan, a polarizing figure in Indian history purported 1790 CE massacre of Vaisnava Iyengar Brahmins, custodians of Melkote's temple and staunch Wodeyar loyalists. This event, tied to Diwali (Naraka Chaturdashi).
Can we call this "KARMA RETURNS"

True💯. Ambedkar ji was a great freedom fighter.
Here's one instance of how Dalits fought the British. This is Ambedkar's letter dated 14 May 1946 to A.V. Alexander, Member of the British Cabinet Mission. Here's an excerpt:
"British Rule in India owes its very existence to the help rendered by the Untouchables. Many Britishers think that India was conquered by the Clives, Hastings, Cootes and so on. Nothing can be a greater mistake. India was conquered by an army of Indians and the Indians who formed the army were all Untouchables. British Rule in India would have been impossible if the Untouchables had not helped the British to conquer India. Take the Battle of Plassey which laid the beginning of British Rule or the battle of Kirkee which completed the conquest of India. In both these fateful battles the soldiers who fought for the British were all Untouchables."
मेरे पूर्वजों की यह उपलब्धियां हैं कि वे विदेशी आक्रान्ताओं से लड़े,मुगलों के अन्याय और अत्याचार पर उन्होंने अपनी बेटियों के बदले अपना राज्य नहीं बचाया,मुगल बादशाहोंकी तारीफ में किताबें ने नहीं लिखीं। मेरे पूर्वजों ने अकबर का दीन ए इलाही धर्म स्वीकार नहीं किया।
मेरे पूर्वजों ने अंग्रेजी हुकूमत से लड़ाई लड़ी,अंग्रेजी हुकूमत की गुलामी नहीं की,अंग्रेजी हुकूमत में अंग्रेजों के पिछलग्गू बनकर भारतीयों का शोषण न किया और न करवाया।
1857 की क्रान्ति का बिगुल और अंग्रेजी हुकूमत को उल्टा लटकाने वाले बिरसा मुंडा,चेतराम जाटव,वीरा पासी,मातादीन भंगी,झलकारीबाई कोरी,बांके चमार,मंगली मेहतर,बाबू कुंवर सिंह चमार,आजमगढ़ के चमार,उदा देवी पासी,रणजीत चमार बाबा थे।
1942 के आंदोलन से 1947 तक मेरे पूर्वजों ; बाबू जगजीवन राम,डॉ0 अम्बेडकर,गंगाराम धानुक,शिवदान चमार,शोभाराम ,कैप्टन मोहन सिंह कुरील,चमार रेजिमेंट और 500 से अधिक दलितों ने देश को अंग्रेजी हुकूमत से आजादी दिलाई।

This repeated ignoring of Complaints by @mybmc & @mybmcwardGN goes to prove beyond doubt that these goods kept chained on the Public Skywalk indeed belongs to a local ward employee who is a illegal hawker too.
So much protection 🤔
cc @AshwiniBhide
@PrajaktaVerma seeking your attention.
It is being alleged that this box chained to the @mybmc Skywalk connected to Matunga W, Z Bridge belongs to a @mybmcwardGN Staff of the anti-encroachment dept, who is also a #illegalHawker.
No wonder, ACTION isn't taken & complaints always ignored.

A heartbreaking incident at Evershine, adjacent to Jain Temple in Thakur Village Kandivali East. Three shops and 7–8 flats above them have reportedly been destroyed by fire, leaving innocent families homeless.
Who will take responsibility?
Why are roadside firecracker stalls allowed without strict safety checks by local police and BMC?
The Bombay High Court has issued clear directions regarding roadside stalls and prohibited bursting firecrackers on public streets.
@DcpZone12Mumbai @MumbaiPolice @mybmc @CPMumbaiPolice @SamtaNagarPS
Demand an immediate inquiry into the fire, verification of firecracker stall permissions, accountability of responsible officials and removal of unauthorised and unsafe stalls.
Public safety cannot be compromised through administrative negligence.

Sahil Wakode's cheating and the political drama around it has started showing its Consequences.
Students in IIT Bombay are now openly cheating and students are now completing DSA questions within 50 minutes which includes 2 hard questions as well .
Honest candidates are now worried about placements and their future . Ultimately this will not only tarnish the reputation of IIT Bombay but also damage the talent pool of India.
India's best technology based institute is being destroyed by the SHOSHIT VANCHIT politics .

On behalf of thousands of Mumbaikars, I am literally requesting the BMC and the Municipal Commissioner to PLEASE look into the pathetic condition of hundreds of utility ducts along JVLR.
Most have sunk well below the road surface, creating dangerous potholes and sudden drops that can cause serious, even fatal accidents.
I couldn't capture them all as I was driving, but the problem is widespread.
PLEASE, I beg you to send a team and fix these on an URGENT basis before someone loses their life.
We don't want much. Just safe roads.
That would genuinely be the BEST Diwali gift you could give Mumbaikars. 🙏

The incident that took place at the Ram Mandir in Aarey Colony is highly condemnable.
This evening, some anti-social elements entered the Ram Mandir in Aarey Colony under the pretext of performing 'aarti'. They tore up photographs and banners of Lord Hanuman and smeared soot on a board displayed within the temple premises.
'Sakal Hindu Samaj' urges the @MumbaiPolice administration to treat this incident with the utmost seriousness, identify the culprits, and take the strictest possible legal action against them.
Furthermore, the administration must ensure that this incident does not lead to any tension between different communities, and that peace, law, and order are maintained in the area.

गुजरात सरकार एवं @CollectorPatan से मेरा विनम्र निवेदन है कि शंखेश्वर जैन महातीर्थ की पवित्र दीवार से सटे सार्वजनिक शौचालय को तत्काल प्रभाव से हटाया जाए।
इस पवित्र तीर्थ की गरिमा, पवित्रता एवं जैन समाज की धार्मिक भावनाओं का सम्मान किया जाना चाहिए।
महातीर्थ की पवित्रता से कोई समझौता स्वीकार्य नहीं है। कृपया शीघ्र आवश्यक कार्रवाई करें। 🙏🏻

It should be noted that @rsprasad himself was a member of the Parliamentary Committee that signed off on the UGC guidelines.
His political career should end here.
माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के समक्ष UGC नियमावली को लेकर केंद्र सरकार द्वारा रखा गया सुझाव अत्यंत स्वागतयोग्य है। हमें पूर्ण विश्वास है कि समीक्षा के बाद ऐसा संतुलित निर्णय आएगा, जिससे सभी वर्गों को संतोष होगा और सबके हितों की रक्षा सुनिश्चित होगी।
'सबका साथ, सबका विकास, सबका विश्वास और सबका प्रयास' — यही मूलमंत्र हमारी सरकार की प्रतिबद्धता है और हर निर्णय में यही भावना झलकती है।
