Christianizing Bharatanatyam

[Hermione]

debatable, but there was a migration into India and assimilation with Dravidian, and Hinduism practised today is mix, Dravidian and Aryan , Aryans homeland should be Persia - Iran

Please put a stop to this. We are both Aryan and Dravidian. Aryan just means noble in culture. If you are noble in your deed and thoughts you are Aryan.

That is less to do with actual Christianity and more to do with dividing a nation , they know too well without Hinduism there is no India... If you actually check how many are actually believe in Christianity there , its actually less..more and more people are going towards Atheism . Dharma , Karma and Reincarnation are being widly believed as well ... as i said, its last Ditch effort of a dying religion

Evangelicals are growing more than any other denomination. Much of their liberals orientation is Christian too, it is just not evident on the surface. Anyways my point is let us not be caught unaware. Let us be alert to expose such fraudsters.

And strangely enough they continue to be muslims despite this

Yeah it surprising given Malaysia is gaining a name for being kind of fundo too.

Either way..its not going to work... there is a Revival of Hinduism going on ..
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar was to win a Nobel peace prize but Sonia Gandhi asked the pope to use his influence not to give him the prize as this would mean the death of Christianity in India

Nobel peace prize is a piece of shit ....the fact that obama got it should have proved it by now. In any case Sri Ravi Shankar does not have enough reach or influence to get it anyway.

That is less to do with actual Christianity and more to do with dividing a nation , they know too well without Hinduism there is no India... If you actually check how many are actually believe in Christianity there , its actually less..more and more people are going towards Atheism . Dharma , Karma and Reincarnation are being widly believed as well ... as i said, its last Ditch effort of a dying religion

The message of christ i.e. to love all and forgive your enemies is a universal theme and will never die.

The more virulent organized christian cult show's no sign of death. India and China is and will be their next revival point and hence the effort.

They say St. Thomas taught Thiruvallur and out of Bible came Thirukkural.

Deivanayagam had predetermined to conclude his book with a finding that Tiruvalluvar was a Christian and a disciple of the so-called St. Thomas and most of the Shaiva Siddantha and the vivid knowledge found in Tirukkural were nothing but the sayings of the Bible. In order to achieve this devious motive, he distorted and misinterpreted the verses of Kural and Shaivite philosophical works and completed the book. Later on, Tamil and Shaivite scholars protested against this and the Dharmapuram Adheenam, a famous Shaivite monastery, came out with a book of refutation written by Tamil Shaivite scholar Arunai Vadivel Mudaliar and released it amongst a congregation of three hundred eminent scholars, who strongly criticised Deivanayagam for his perversion of history. This was done mainly to prevent the usage of such deceitful materials by the future generations for research activities.

Meh, let them use Bharatnatyam to praise any God. Doesn't change the fact that it's an Indian dance form that overwhelmingly also carries Hindu religious symbology and mythological connotations as the story arc.

It is called respecting the creator of that dance.Ever heard of plagiarism its a big deal in west and you can get your degree revoked or go to jail for it.This nothing but plagiarism of ancient hindu culture.
