#sur and asur / dev and rakshas are all embodiments of much more complicated thoughts and emotions
Text
Every time I come across a 'Hindu mythology aesthetic moodboard' I go through the stages of grief.
#im talking about the ones w/ random pictures of some person in a suit and random sanskrit words and random close-ups of pendants#and you can just tell a heavily anglicised individual is to blame#like#bestie#please leave me and my gods and my RELIGION not mythology!!! out of your pinterest#and they all so heavily misunderstand the point of hinduism#it makes me sad#oh and#that accursed post that keeps making rounds on tumblr#the one where kali is basically artemis and lakshmi runs a casino and the whole thing is set in the usa for some fuckall reason#yeah dont do things like that because you clearly dont understand the gods or what they stand for#hinduism is not about looking at things ass they appear on the surface and going to town with it#sur and asur / dev and rakshas are all embodiments of much more complicated thoughts and emotions#every narrative has a message snd every story requires critical thought and introspection#i know i sound mean but can coloniser descendants people who think they can just play around with our gods because they think this active#religion is just mythology please stay away from them#pls#have some shraddha#but more importantly have some respect#hinduism
