Trump is trying the same thing too.
Look at this guy, thinks he’s led by God or smthn… the last time I’ve seen of one guy proclaiming that, his name was
Welp, I wouldn’t trust him with anythin’ here…
The language used seems very Abrahamic for a Hindu nationalist. Like consistently referring to a singular God usually referred to only as God. Is this some translation weirdness, or is it just normal language that’s surprising me because I’m not familiar with the context? I know that a lot of denominations of Hinduism hold one of the gods as being the primary one, but even that seems like it would be a fast way to alienate other denominations
There are differing schools of thought regarding the vast amount of deities in Hinduism. One school, which is what most outsiders are aware of, is that each god is individual from one another and they have varying domains, powers and relationships, much like the ancient Roman and Greek gods. Another school suggests that all of the different gods are expressions of a singular God, much as how Christianity has the Holy Trinity who are three separate beings (Lord, Jesus, Holy Spirit) that are also simultaneously one being.
You’ll find that oftentimes outside of the context of a puja or a religious holiday Hindu people will often just refer to ‘God’ rather than a specific deity e.g. “Thank God” rather than “Thank Durga” or “God is watching over you” and not “Ganesh is watching over you”. I’m not sure if this reflects their school of thought on mono/polytheism or is just language simplification, but from what I’ve gathered from Indian communities here in Australia the ‘many gods; one God’ idea seems to be pretty prevalent.
Interesting insight. Thanks.
Which one tho
Sounds like he’s started smoking what he’s selling.
Classic dictator trope
Check his travel history for any stints in North Korea
When I think of superhuman origins, I think of a 5’7 elderly Indian man.
Look up the Statue of Unity - the highest statue in the world, located in India. It’s just old dude looking like average old dude, but extremely humongous.
