  &lt;h3 id=&quot;e1ru&quot;&gt;First lets understand What is Jihad?&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;iANp&quot; class=&quot;m_column&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img2.teletype.in/files/57/4c/574c4c0d-e897-4665-b10e-73dc7cc010e1.png&quot; width=&quot;383&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;dbji&quot;&gt;Jihad a struggle or assault against enemies of Islam(Every other religion), So basically when you say I am Kshatriya, I am Dalit, I am Brahmin, you just are &lt;em&gt;Kaafir&lt;/em&gt; to them, an enemy they seek to destroy by whatever means, This means of destruction are called types of Jihad.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;3IJU&quot;&gt;Types of Jihad:&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;ul id=&quot;AyBb&quot;&gt;
    &lt;li id=&quot;UyW5&quot;&gt;Land Jihad&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li id=&quot;cMJS&quot;&gt;Love Jihad&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li id=&quot;AfwK&quot;&gt;Armed Jihad&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li id=&quot;PpIX&quot;&gt;etc. refer image.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;vaUT&quot; class=&quot;m_original&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img2.teletype.in/files/18/2e/182e2a29-d90a-46dc-9248-9af7c09d8895.png&quot; width=&quot;706&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;FldZ&quot;&gt;Where is Jihad funded from?&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;ainU&quot;&gt;There are numerous organizations that have link with Pakistani terrorists directly/indirectly numerous big names involved. Some of these organizations are Halal boards which provides Halal Certification, for food, clothing, accessories, etc. &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;4MZ5&quot;&gt;Numerous celebrities have been found to have ties with terrorists with now-a-days being circulated an old video of terrorist &lt;em&gt;Hafeez Said&lt;/em&gt; called &lt;em&gt;Shah Rukh Khan&lt;/em&gt; to stay in Pakistan, &lt;em&gt;Hafeez&lt;/em&gt; being himself mastermind of 26/11 terrorist attack in India.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;9Ao8&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;fjD8&quot;&gt;How do we fund Jihadis in daily life unknowingly?&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;2M83&quot;&gt;All Halal Certifications cost some fees around 120k Rupees per product/year, These certification charges are then collected from consumer in form of product cost increment. Halal Certifications aren&amp;#x27;t necessary after International Certifications like ISO, but still many brands purchase Halal Certifications.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;i7Cg&quot;&gt;How Halal Certification authority work?&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;SIr6&quot;&gt;They check some facilities of the company, who checks religious leader &lt;em&gt;Maulvis, to &lt;/em&gt;check if the certain product is fit for consumption by Muslim or not, Hindus have different standards then them, hence Halal Certifications are nothing for us but the cost of Certification is levied by Majority consumer (Hindu), gifting Jihadis hard-earned money directly.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;DgZh&quot;&gt;What to do avoid funding Jihadi Activities?&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;exos&quot;&gt;Be Certain that every product you buy, you check Halal Certification on that product such as given below or similar symbol, if present buy other products. Currently, bigger brands such as Wafers, Olive Oil brands , etc. which are owned by hindus ,whose majority consumer is hindu still they get their products halal certified to woo minor audience, if halal certified products aren&amp;#x27;t sold companies will stop buying certifications and the Terror-Funding business will Finally end.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;sU52&quot; class=&quot;m_retina&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img3.teletype.in/files/6c/40/6c401a89-7971-4316-a586-a0b5beed9bc9.png&quot; width=&quot;250&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;ywgz&quot; class=&quot;m_retina&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;lkjx&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;KAHk&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;hifa&quot;&gt;These are halal certification logos which every Hindu should avoid no matter what, To save future generations from ever-growing danger of getting slaughtered, raped, kidnapped, smuggled from our own neighborhood and from our own country.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;h3 id=&quot;GQgo&quot;&gt;Bageshwar Dham Sarkar AKA Dhirendra Shastri:&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;2Vk2&quot; class=&quot;m_column&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img4.teletype.in/files/7d/dd/7ddd9092-dff9-4971-848e-cffca6ef4586.jpeg&quot; width=&quot;1000&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;6e5L&quot;&gt;Dhirendra Shastri Head Priest of Bageshwar Dham is getting fame, due to his role in converting people from other religion to Sanatan Dharma once again. Lets talk about some of his personal life first&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;7NDn&quot;&gt;He is an Undergraduate Bachelor In Arts, He had all of his religious lessons from his Grandfather whom he considers his Guru. Earlier his Grandfather also held Religious meetings such as him. It is since then people gather at Bageshwar Dham for finding solutions.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;vHIG&quot;&gt;Dhirendra Shastri AKA Bageshwar Dham Sarkar.&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;UHKK&quot;&gt;Many videos circulating online shows him having telepathic or magical powers which leads him to guessing problems of people and writing it down even before they actually reach the stage and tell.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;jRF5&quot;&gt;Some claim they are just paid actors, some say it is magic.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Iemg&quot;&gt;But the most important of them all is he shows solution to those problems effectively and people affected by that change their religion to follow him and are returning to Sanatan Dharma.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;QXfE&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;RAOQ&quot;&gt;Mass conversions and genocides&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;qQVR&quot;&gt;India being oldest civilized countries having unparalleled wealth and knowledge became center of attraction for Invaders, Many tried, many defeated for centuries to come, but some succeeded in Invading the Golden Sparrow the Glorious Bharatvarsha.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;g5eT&quot;&gt;After that many rulers from many civilizations, many religions followed who forcibly converted Sanatani people to Islam.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;IVCL&quot;&gt;Many atrocities, genocides and sexual exploitation followed in the name of the religion by Mughal Kings for forcibly converting to Islam. Many religiously important temples demolished ancient knowledge burned, women raped, kids abducted, men killed on basis of religion.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;a8S3&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;Fd7U&quot;&gt;Importance of return to Sanatan Dharma&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;GvA8&quot;&gt;Sanatan dharma being oldest religion in existence, is eternal, all those converted people are like small children lost during time, Bageshwar Dham Sarkar AKA Dhirendra Shastri has approach unlike any other previous oppressors&amp;#x27; , People are  converting out of their own free will.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;yBDn&quot;&gt;It is of utmost importance that the people of India return to their original religion to make India glorious again as it once was. By returning to Sanatan Dharma they are paying tribute to their ancestors who fought till the bitter end for the sake of dharma.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;akmp&quot;&gt;Currently India requires more and more such  people who wish to see India in it&amp;#x27;s former glory. Who wish to see the Akhand Bharat.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;gUlU&quot;&gt;Devrata AKA Gangaputra, Pitamah, and &lt;strong&gt;Bhishma, &lt;/strong&gt;the warrior who stood at pinnacle of strength bested by no warrior on the Kurukshetra during the war of Mahabharat.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;BC7B&quot;&gt;How he became Bhishma?&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Ohqh&quot;&gt;Often referred as Gangaputra Bhishma or Bhishma Pitamah, there is an interesting story about Bhishma how he got the name/title of Bhishma.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;9nDD&quot;&gt;Bhishma is Gangaputra (son of mother ganga), after several years of his birth his father Shantanu when met him and got to know about Bhishma took him to palace, insecure about own children Shantanu&amp;#x27;s second wife Satyavati, asked King Shantanu to make her oldest son heir to the throne. When Bhishma agreed to it without a question, Queen Satyavati couldn&amp;#x27;t believe it and just told him if he doesn&amp;#x27;t became king maybe he will make his children next king after her son, so to make it believe her Bhishma took an oath.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;l3dz&quot; class=&quot;m_column&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img3.teletype.in/files/aa/59/aa59b6e1-7a4c-410e-8a38-19ee517222e9.jpeg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;vQUY&quot;&gt;The Sacrificial Oath&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;UH5i&quot;&gt;Bhishma took an blood oath on the banks of holy river ganga that he will always stay loyal to Hastinapur, he will follow brahmacharya ( a way of life) so he will not marry, so no children of his to become king after Satyavati&amp;#x27;s children.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;igb5&quot;&gt;For taking such an fierce oath (Bhishma Pratigya) he came to be known as Bhishma. He always stood with his oath for his entire life, for this oath King Shantanu gave Bhishma an boon of &lt;strong&gt;Icha Mrityu ( Control over the time of his death). &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;yz86&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Loyalty to Hastinapur&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Hryk&quot;&gt; He was the most respected person in the kingdom of Hastinapur. Reverentially he was called Bhishma Pitamaha. He served his step mother, then her son Vichitra Virya, later his sons Pandu and Dhritarashtra as a mark of loyalty to the throne of Hastinapur.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Uy4j&quot;&gt;Until his Final moments he served Hastinapur with utmost loyalty.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;h3 id=&quot;wlia&quot;&gt;Strength&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;wciS&quot;&gt;The most powerful warrior on the grounds of Kurukshetra with the boon of Icha Mrityu, he was invincible warrior, until he chose to die by the hands of Parth( Arjun), He alone was so powerful that if he had decided to live he alone could have won the war of Kurukshetra against Pandavas, After realization of his mistakes with the help of Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Mahabharat, Bhishma Chose death.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Ug3s&quot;&gt;His own guru Parshurama was also well aware of his strength, when the two had a battle one of the three supreme gods Lord Shiva had to intervene to stop the battle of Bhishma and Parshurama because of the insane strength and astras they both possessed, if not stopped timely their battle could have led to inevitable destruction of Prithvi .&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;uNd8&quot;&gt;Final moments during Mahabharat&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;IEuA&quot; class=&quot;m_column&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;WLxq&quot;&gt;Due his strength and boon of Icha Mrityu, Bhishma became the follower of his own principles which he thought to be Dharma, While facing the Parth, When Lord Krishna taught Bhishma about dharma , Bhishma arrogantly told &amp;quot;Hey Vasudeva, do not mock my dharma on which I have lived my whole life, It is because of my Dharma that no one on the kurukshetra can defeat me!&amp;quot;, to which Krishna replied by lifting a wheel from Horse Cart, stopping time and telling him that he can defeat Bhishma even with the wheel of the cart to do that he won&amp;#x27;t even require any weapons. After witnessing the Krishna as a God he was Bhishma accepted defeat and requested Parth to kill him.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;hr /&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;uBmz&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;0g2W&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Jmxx&quot;&gt;*Most powerful warrior because Lord Krishna was not a warrior in the war of Mahabharat as well as other powerful warriors such Barbarik and Lord Parshuram.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p id=&quot;ozAO&quot;&gt;One of the most powerful characters in the Mahabharat, to whom the knowledge of Shrimad Bhagvad Gita was originally given by Lord Krishna himself, Let us know a few things about him:&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;figure id=&quot;x6Rr&quot; class=&quot;m_original&quot;&gt;
    &lt;img src=&quot;https://img4.teletype.in/files/b2/a6/b2a6f381-6036-44f9-a1b1-859858120e7a.jpeg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;gkcS&quot;&gt;Astra(s) possessed by Arjun&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;WgYM&quot;&gt;While Arjun had possession of many astra but Pashupatastra and Brahmashira were the most important of them&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;cR23&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Brahmashira&lt;/strong&gt;: Arjuna recieved Brahmashira astra from Lord Paarshuram an Incarnation of lord Vishnu,The Brahmashira astra is considered to be one of the most destructive weapons in Hindu mythology, capable of destroying entire armies and cities. It is said to be formed from the power of the divine being Brahma, and when unleashed, creates a massive explosion that destroys everything in its path.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;FLTm&quot;&gt;However, using the Brahmashira astra also had a heavy cost, as it consumed the energy of the person who invoked it and also caused massive destruction to the surroundings. It was also said that the person who invoked it would lose all his powers and a part of his lifespan.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;tmEf&quot;&gt;Arjuna is said to have used the Brahmashira astra only once in the Mahabharata war, during his fight with Bhishma. However, it is said that he decided not to use it again because of its destructive nature and the heavy cost associated with it.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;SJph&quot;&gt;It is also said that only a few people such as Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, and Lord Parasurama were capable of mastering this weapon.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;HDQX&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pashupatastra: &lt;/strong&gt;Arjuna obtained Pashupatastra from Lord Shiva, who is also known as Pashupati, the protector of animals and the lord of all beings.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;FnsS&quot;&gt;The Pashupatastra is considered to be one of the most destructive weapons in Hindu mythology, capable of destroying entire armies and cities. When invoked, it creates a powerful energy blast that can vaporize anything in its path.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Ha6P&quot;&gt;However, it is said that the Pashupatastra should only be used as a last resort, as its power is so great that it can cause widespread destruction and loss of life. It is also said that only a select few individuals who have mastered yoga and meditation and have the blessings of Lord Shiva can wield the Pashupatastra without being harmed.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;Lb4n&quot;&gt;In Mahabharata, it is said that Arjuna used the Pashupatastra to defeat the powerful warrior Bhagadatta during the Kurukshetra war. However, Lord Krishna warns Arjuna not to use it again, as the weapon was too dangerous and could cause mass destruction.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;zZzH&quot;&gt;It is also mentioned in Hindu Puranas, that the Pashupatastra was only known to Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu, and it was said that who ever possessed it, would become invincible in war.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2 id=&quot;z3PJ&quot;&gt;Gandiva: One of the most powerful bows&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;KkPe&quot;&gt;As Arjun being the wielder of holy bow Gandiva , he became a warrior feared by thousands just by the name  of bow, Arjuna being an excellent archer under Guru Dronacharya he had skills far surpassing others, while holding Gandiva and the possessions of the astras, one could say arjuna was invincible on battlefield.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;BnR7&quot;&gt;Agni, God of fire, wanted to devour the forest of Khandavaprastha, to regain his power and splendor. He had enlisted the help of the two heroes, Krishna and Arjuna. Arjuna was one of the best warrior and greatest archer of the world &amp;amp; all time and demanded from Agni a bow that would suit his strength, skill and the power of celestial weapons.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;E46U&quot;&gt;Agni then requested Varuna to bless the heroes with the desired weapons. Varuna gave the Gandiva bow to Arjuna, as well as two quivers which would provide an inexhaustible number of arrows.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;e7Sd&quot;&gt;The weapon was dreaded by many during the Kurukshetra war, having defeated and killed many great warriors and the gods themselves.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;rJV9&quot;&gt;The Gandiva gives a wielder self confidence, self belief. The bow consisted of 108 celestial string, was endued with great energy and is believed to have the strength of one lakh bows. Gandiva was indestructible and was worshiped by the celestials and the Gandharvas.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;0LKR&quot;&gt;At the end of the Dvapara Yuga, Krishna departed the Earth and left for Vaikuntha. When Krishna was departing, he told Arjuna to rescue the people of Dwarika because he was submerging Dwarika under ocean. Arjuna temporarily could not string the bow, or remember the spells necessary in order to summon his celestial weapons when Dwarika was drowning. Arjuna knew that his time on earth was up as well, Vyasa had told him this event will happen and when it happens, Arjuna&amp;#x27;s work on earth is over. Later, the Pandavas retired and journeyed to the Himalayas. On their route, Agni came and asked Arjuna to return the Gandiva to Varuna, for it belonged to the gods. Arjuna obliged and dropped them in the waters of the sea. Thus the celestial bow was returned to the gods&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p id=&quot;AfgC&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
