Happy Maha Shivratri :)
My mom is singing Sanskrit prayers and cooking all things potato. Shit is about to get real. Jai Jai Shiv Shankar.

If there’s one tradition I am too down for, it’s the mangalsutra. The husband presents his wife with this thread of gold on their wedding day and she is to wear until his death. It is a symbol of their love.

An Indian couple have had their children taken away by Norwegian social workers because they were feeding them with their hands and sleeping in the same bed as them.
Anurup and Sagarika Bhattacharya lost custody of their three-year-old son and one-year-old daughter eight months ago after authorities branded their behaviour inappropriate.
This is an absolute injustice and complete cultural ignorance.
Please sign this petition and spread this post around. Return these children to their parents.
As of the 10:30 pm on 22 January, this petition has fewer than 4,000 signatures. Take one minute to go sign in support of this family. What has happened is unconscionable.

Hindu Identity
I am Audichya Sahasra Brahmin. My gotra is Baradwaj. My grandmother always made me recite that and told me to never forget it. The caste system has no meaning to me, but I will never forget where I am came from.
