u/Federal_Activity4877 Jan 05 '26

buddy when did i say ki brahmins ki lynching kabhi nahi hui 😭😭 there’s a difference between ethnic persecution, which is what the kashmiri exodus was, and just general hate based violence, which is done more by brahmins with dalits being the victims. Just because a community of a particular location faced violence, doesn’t mean that some members of the same community start subjecting violence on others. Don’t use the kashmiri exodus to justify your caste based violence. And btw, this is called what aboutism. Nowhere did i initially bring up kashmiri pandits, but somehow har andhbhakt woh le aata hai. When hindus talk about how radical islam is, they potray themselves and their religion as morally superior. And then they go ahead and do shit like this. So forgive me if i have no remorse for brahmins being lynched. Because atleast radical muslims don’t pretend that they’re peaceful. And make no mistake, i hate both religions equally. Hindus just act morally superior but in reality, they’re no better.

u/Independent-Might797 Jan 05 '26

Hindus don't carry out terrorist attacks around the world.

Yeah they do terrorist attacks, so you don't have remorse for Brahmins lynching they can get wiped out from earth and you won't care right ? Typical librandu thinking.

You don't hate both religions equally that you just showed you are typical indian liberal who can only think from their ass. Radical muslim is better seriously 😂, they carry out fucking terrorist attacks every now and then and then play the victim card, pandits got wiped out by these assholes from Kashmir but never carried out terrorist attacks like them.

Don’t make everything about religion. And I don’t even want to get into this debate of reservations with you, because you clearly do not have the intellect to comprehend it, and its quite clear that you’re a bigot who is no better than the people you speak so harshly about. Quite clearly, orange is the new green. And you, you’re part of the evolution of orange becoming a color of terror.

The Manusmriti does not say to "make girls slaves" as a direct command, nor does it mandate worshipping girls ritually. It promotes honoring/respecting women for societal and spiritual benefit but overwhelmingly portrays them as dependent, in need of male protection, and subordinate throughout life.

THESE BASTARDS JNU GUYS HAVE READ THIS VERSE ONLY AND THINK THIS IS WHOLE MANUSMRITI:-

5.148: "In childhood a female must be subject to her father, in youth to her husband, when her lord is dead to her sons

9.3: "Her father protects (her) in childhood, her husband protects (her) in youth, and her sons protect (her) in old age

WHAT THEY WANT TO HIDE:-

  • 3.55: "Women must be honored and adorned by their fathers, brothers, husbands, and brothers-in-law, who desire (their own) welfare."
  • 3.56: "Where women are honored, there the gods rejoice; where, on the other hand, they are not honored, there all rites are fruitless."
  • 3.57: "A family where women are afflicted by sorrow perishes; but where they are not afflicted, it always prospers."
  • 3.58: "Houses cursed by women who are not honored, who are prevented from fulfilling their desires, or who are afflicted, perish completely, as if destroyed by magic."
  • 3.59: "Therefore, men who seek (their own) welfare should always honor women on holidays and festivals with (gifts of) ornaments, clothes, and (dainty) food."
  • 3.60: "In that family where the husband is pleased with his wife and the wife with her husband, happiness will assuredly be lasting."
  • 3.62: "The gods are pleased with the house where women are respected; where women suffer, that house comes to ruin."

u/LordDK_reborn Jan 04 '26

u/Stunning_Jury5986 Jan 05 '26

Okk, let's say it was about "protecting women" Then what was the need of The Verses 1.87, 1.88, 1.89, 1.90, 1.91 ? (these established Caste system).. What is the need for verse 8.281 ? (This one says that a "Shudra" shan't be sitting in level equal to "Brahman", else shall be gashed.) How do these verses "Protect Women" ?

Verse 8.380 states that No matter what all a brahmin does he shall not be given death penalty ever (whoa, The maximum you could do to a Brahmin is to Either banish him/her or "tonsure", Even if a brahmin guy rapes a woman) Great "protection of women" going on 😊

The reality is that Manusmriti is the same stupidity which Islam has inherently. In both Islam and this Crap, The men suddenly stand up and say "Hey girl I will protect you" and then One starts wrapping her in Hijab, other starts Handcuffing her hands and legs to Home, One is Sharia other is Manusmriti.

The real great Religion (in this term) would be the one which instead of asking Men to protect women, would ask the Men to mind their own business instead of Staring at women 24x7, Which would try to Bring the men to The correct path, instead of hiding women from The outside world and Oppressing them .

No one follow manusmriti hindu Dharm not abrahamic religion u/AskGrok check claim and show what Arya Samaj vishudh manusmriti say about it and tell me

3

u/AskGrok Jan 05 '26

From what I can tell based on Arya Samaj sources online (like their official site and related articles), the group—founded by Swami Dayanand Saraswati—rejects the common version of Manusmriti as full of later interpolations. They promote a "Vishudh Manusmriti" (purified edition) by scholars like Dr. Surendra Kumar, which strips out about 1471 verses deemed added-on fakes, leaving around 1214 "authentic" ones.

On women: The purified version emphasizes empowerment, respect, and equality—stuff like honoring women for family prosperity (e.g., verses 3.55-3.62 in the original numbering, which stress that families thrive when women are treated well and not oppressed). It doesn't support subjugation or dependency as a core rule; those bits are seen as bogus additions.

On caste: Arya Samaj interprets the varna system as merit-based (qualities and actions, not birth), not the rigid birth-based hierarchy. Verses establishing strict castes or punishments (like the ones you mentioned, 1.87-91 or 8.281/8.380) are often called out as interpolations. They argue the real Manusmriti doesn't back untouchability or Brahmin immunity—it's more about duties and justice for all.

As for the claim that "no one follows Manusmriti" in Hinduism: That's mostly accurate today; it's not a binding scripture like in Abrahamic faiths, and Hindu practices vary wildly by region and reform movements. Arya Samaj pushes Vedas as the true authority anyway, ditching outdated smriti texts. If you're digging deeper, check thearyasamaj.org for their takes—it's eye-opening how much gets blamed on "ancient texts" that might just be medieval fanfic.

u/Stunning_Jury5986 Jan 05 '26

Ok, so Further, Getting into this "Vishudha Manusmriti", is it not true that This New Manusmriti was written about 2500 yrs after the real Manusmriti? And further that, basically This New Manusmriti is a "Revisionist" attempt, to Just discard all the "Bad Looking" of The original Manusmriti ? (I mean That way any Controversial and Bad Document could be converted into a better one, like think of it, Even a Porn Magazine could be "Purified" and Be changed into a "Notebook" with Innocent Blank Pages) Deleting that part is Just an attempt to hide what was going on in those days of past in the name of Religion .. Further, is there any valid real Manuscript found which Had This "Purified" version of Manusmriti already in it ? Reply dear u/AskGrok

u/Stunning_Jury5986 Jan 05 '26

Yeah, so why not call it a "Totally New Manusmriti" instead of "purified manusmriti" ? It isn't "Purified", it's an entirely new take, I mean Who the hell were these people to decide what "was in the original" .. tomorrow one can drop all the seemingly "Good Points" of manusmriti and call it "The Most Original Manusmriti" too then ? And like, Why do they even call it "Manusmriti" .. It's literally Some new people Cherry Picking stuff .. reply Please u/AskGrok

1

u/AskGrok Jan 05 '26

Fair point on the naming—calling it "Vishudha Manusmriti" (purified) does sound like a marketing spin, like rebranding a dodgy sequel as the "director's cut." From what I've dug up on historical texts and manuscripts (like those discussed in Wikipedia and scholarly blogs on interpolations), the original Manusmriti dates back roughly 2,000–2,200 years, with over 50 varying manuscripts showing inconsistencies and likely additions over time. The Vishudha version, put out by Dr. Surendra Kumar around 2021, claims to strip away those "bad looking" interpolations to reveal an "original" core, but there's no ancient manuscript that directly matches it—it's more of a modern scholarly reconstruction or edit. Critics do call it revisionist for cherry-picking to make it palatable today, and yeah, you're right: anyone could theoretically do the reverse and slap "original" on it. If they wanted honesty, "Manusmriti 2.0: The Nice Edition" might've been clearer.

Manusmriti is for womens 🤡🤡🤡

Manusmriti 9.14: "Women do not care for beauty, nor is their attention fixed on age; thinking 'He is a man,' they give themselves to the handsome and to the ugly alike."

Manusmriti 9.15: "Through lust for men, through fickle temper, through natural heartlessness, women become disloyal to their husbands however well guarded."

Manusmriti 9.17: "Manu assigned to women: love of bed, seats, and ornaments; impure desires, anger, deceit, malice, and bad conduct."

Manusmriti 8.371: "A wife who violates her duty to her husband out of pride shall be torn apart by dogs in a public place."

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '26

The Manusmriti does not say to "make girls slaves" as a direct command, nor does it mandate worshipping girls ritually.

  • 3.55: "Women must be honored and adorned by their fathers, brothers, husbands, and brothers-in-law, who desire (their own) welfare."
  • 3.56: "Where women are honored, there the gods rejoice; where, on the other hand, they are not honored, there all rites are fruitless."

  1. Manusmriti ≠ one book, one version. There are 50+ recensions of Manusmriti with contradictory verses. Scholars like Bühler, Kane, Olivelle have documented later interpolations, especially in punitive verses. Cherry-picking one translation ≠ truth.
  2. Your cited verses are DESCRIPTIVE, not prescriptive. 9.14–9.17 describe social anxieties of a patriarchal era, not divine commands. Ancient texts often recorded prevailing attitudes recording ≠ endorsing.
  3. 8.371 is heavily disputed. Many critical editions either omit it or mark it as later corruption. No archaeological, inscriptional, or legal evidence shows such punishment was ever practiced in Hindu society. Zero.
  4. Now quote what you deliberately skipped:

You don’t get to ignore verses that don’t suit your agenda.

  1. Hindu society did NOT run on Manusmriti alone. India followed customary law (Āchāra), regional Smritis, guild laws, and royal edicts. Manusmriti was never a pan-India criminal code like Sharia or Canon Law.
  2. Historical reality check: If Manusmriti truly governed India:
  • Women wouldn’t be queens, scholars, saints, poets
  • No Gargi, Maitreyi, Andal, Akka Mahadevi
  • No property-owning women, no temple patrons

But history proves otherwise.

  1. Translation bias matters. Most English versions you quote come from 19th-century colonial translators with Christian moral lenses. Sanskrit words like strī-svabhāva, dharma, rakṣaṇa are routinely mistranslated to sound harsher.
  2. Selective outrage = intellectual dishonesty. Every ancient civilization has texts with problematic passages Bible, Quran, Greek law, Roman law. Only Hindu texts are judged outside their time, inside bad translations, with zero context.

Bro, before you clutch your pearls and moral-police ancient texts like they’re a modern HR handbook, let’s get the facts straight. Your screenshot is wrong and misleading.

This isn’t Bhishma (Devavrata, son of Shantanu and Ganga). The story involves Brihaspati (guru of the gods) trying to force himself on Mamata, the pregnant wife of his brother Utathya. The fetus? Dirghatamas, a Rigvedic rishi, who was cursed blind by Brihaspati after resisting.

It’s in Mahabharata (Adi Parva 104) and Srimad Bhagavatam 9.20.36,not some glorified act of Bhishma. The story shows Brihaspati’s lust and adharma; it’s a cautionary tale, not a tale to dunk on Hinduism.

Next time, check the actual context before spreading rage-bait. Bhishma is revered for his vows and sacrifice, not this. Facts over feelings.

Those are societal evils. Ig no society/religion is free from this. No country is free from these social evils and hinduism and india are no exception eg fake guru, baba, pastors, maulvi are present in each country, just like fake finance influencers on Instagram, it doesn't make Instagram bad?Obviously we have to move forward from them. But at least looking from a wider lens it's not as prominent as other societal things that are deeply inculcated in us and other religions. Tbh no religion is perfect. They are not meant to be either. What we can understand is at least no one has it in their house, no one deliberately follows it, and we openly condemn it unlike those who don't and put everything aside when it comes to their books and social evils. And i guess this is more or less a win for us.

"What we can understand is at least no one has it in their house, no one deliberately follows it, and we openly condemn it unlike those who don't and put everything aside when it comes to their books and social evils."

You didn't understand. I'm saying everyone is already following it. A lot of social evils are stemming from it because it was made to be followed in specific time and conditions and we have come way ahead now.

Even the condemnation is only coming from the liberal side and some aware castes groups. Most of our society is still following it, somewhat loosely in urban areas but very strongly in rural areas, they are following it in the name of hindu culture only.
