Got super late so couldn't go to vrindavan buttttttt went to janmabhoomi mandir and girraj maharaj mandir - and the climbing up the govardhan parvat was insane 💀 imagine slippery rocks and small ones too + monkeys and just UP local men climbing up and down laughing while you're hoping you don't slip and crack open your head , but i climbed up first and also came down first hehe:))

The last pic's background is not a white wall it was so freaking foggy the whole background came out white in all other pictures as well which is why it looks like a solid white wall

And the pujari there then told the whole story of how maharaj girraj comes here to rest at night and more stuff

Spoiler alert: came home and bawled my eyes out because i miss it and radha krishna of janmabhoomi mandir were just so beautiful i couldn't take my eyes off of them AND got unki chadhi hui mala so that was really really amazing 🩷🩷

love and craftsmanship

that something we call art

is born.

But now

scrub these words to a blur

and see what then holds up

of things just said.

Crumbling leaves, the rubble.

Nothing but an undertone,

all else a bestowal, a gift,

a vision that you’ve never seen before,

a young orchard

looming pink at dawn—

fruitless yet so hopeful,

a landscape

awaiting its meaning,

an eye with its own

undeniable thirst.”

Land was given to the Muslims too for the Babri mosque when the order was issued for the Shri Rama temple to be rebuilt in Ayodhya. That's justice. Give us back our Mathura and Kashi, and let us see what other temples have long been buried. If you don't condone the acts of the islamic invaders then why stand by the monuments of their atrocities?

And YOU tell us, does time passing by somehow render our feelings numb or invaluable? It's neither an apology nor an excuse. You are not allowed to disrespect us in any manner. Our identity shall stick to us. You cannot seize it away.
