As per old Muslim and Chinese records, the South China Sea was called Champa Sea after the Hindu kingdom of Champa. "South China Sea" is only a modern naming. "Talking Dance: Contemporary Histories from the South China Sea" - Ralph Buck, Nicholas Rowe, Toni Shapiro-Phim

The Philippines on the eve of the Spanish conquest Luzon had the Hindu kingdom of Tondo (with interiors being animist Igorot) Visayas had the Rajahnate of Cebu North Mindanao had the kingdom of Butuan (Lumad) Maguindanao, Lanao (Maranao) and Sulu were Islamic (formerly Hindu)

Notice how South China Sea is labelled as "Sea of Champa" because that's what it's original name was. It was given the new name by Westerners during the age of colonization.

On how the pre-Christian Indic writing systems in the Philippines were replaced by the Latin script when the Spanish arrived. "Orientalists, Propagandists, and Ilustrados: Filipino Scholarship and the End of Spanish Colonialism" - Megan Christine Thomas

Left: Doa Pu dance of Cham women, Champa Right: Banga dance or Kalinga women, Kalinga, Philippines The goal of the dances is to not spill water kept in the pot while balancing it during the performance.

Gods of the Filipino Tagalog pantheon prior to their Christianization. Bathala = Shiva, Ikapati = Lakshmi So, I'm sure the others are so adaptations of other deities. Deities (now demoted to spirits) are called "diwatas" in the Philippines

I can't believe people are afraid of Christians in 2020. I live in a town that is 72% Christian + used to have frequent bomb blasts by militants, and even I don't fear them.

Ganesha was and continues to be a very popular God in many places, from India to Thailand—and not too long ago, in the Philippines. In fact, the pre-Hispanic word for elephant in Tagalog, Kapampangan, Ilocano, Bikol and Visayan languages is taken straight out of Sanskrit “gaja”.

Although now lost forever, mūrti (sacred images of the Gods) weren’t uncommon in many parts of the Philippines prior to Spanish colonisation. A copper figure of Ganesha was unearthed in Mactan in 1843, but was destroyed along with the museum that housed it during World War II.

Christianity as a religion is in a state of irreversible decline. It is dying in Europe and the New World (Central America will catch on soon too), already dead in the Muslim world. It's trying to expand into sub-Saharan Africa and Asia-Pacific in last attempts at survival.

Sri Adhi Vinayaka, the form of Lord Ganesha with a humanoid head. I believe this specific idol is from Koothanur, Tiruvarur, Tamil Nadu.

Tribals don't have cryptos lol. ST reservation is religion neutral, so they don't lose reservations even if they convert multiple times throughout their lives. Cryptos exist only among SCs.

Also, West Odisha being Christian majority is a hoax. You can check the census data. Except 3-4 districts, tribals in Odisha are overwhelmingly Hindu still. twitter.com/porbotialora/s

Lol, no. Christians don't vote for BJP (except a few). Even after pandering a lot to Christians, they still lost miserably in the constituencies in Meghalaya and Mizoram. I know about voting patterns in my state. The more religious a Christian is, less likely they vote for BJP

Share of Christians in Arunachal 1971 0.79% 1981 4.32% 1991 10.3% 2001 18.72% 2011 30.26% Considering BJP got ~60% voteshare in the 2019 elections, it's safe to say Christians are still below 39%. The conversions that happened last decade probably did from 2011-2016 before BJP

Check the voting patterns of Arunachal and conversion rates. Christianity used to rise by double digits each decade. This time BJP got ~60% voteshare, which means share of conversions is much lower than before Hans do not hate Hindus. They have no religious reason to.

Lol, Christianity is literally on a decline. Conversions will saturate in a few years and start receding in India as well like rest of the world. Ambedkarites are v miniscule in number. Hans don't hate Hinduism, they just find Indians a hindrance to their expansion.

How many front wars are Hindus fighting ? In my opinion 5. 1. Islam 2. Christianity 3. Western Marxism-Liberalism 4. Ambedkarism 5. China

Normally, for Chaturthi, my sister and I join the Hindu community in Manila, but since neither of us can do that right now, I’m cooking some desserts and she’s painted something for Him.

Not dissing at their talent, but it's sad to see lighter skinned black women being given more preference.

Today is the 4th day of the lunar month — a day sacred to both Hermês and Ganesha. But the next few days starting today are extra special because it’s Ganesha Chaturthi, that time in the year when we celebrate the Remover of obstacles as He visits us mortals.

Peradaban kita kaya dengan simbol-simbol, yg juga berperan sebagai alat perenungan/belajar. Simbol ini bisa berupa gambar, benda, kata-kata, serta cerita. Ini bisa dilihat misalnya dalam perwujudan dewa-dewi, salah satunya Ganesha.
