About this deal

While the clashes in Leicester were led by some Hindu nationalists, some Muslims also stoked tensions by tearing down and burning symbols of Hinduism. So it would be wrong to suggest that one side was entirely to blame and another was entirely innocent. The color Saffron ( Hindi: भगवा, romanized: Bhagawā) is considered as a sacred color in Hinduism. According to Hindu mythology, Saffron (or Kesariya) is the color of Sunset ( Sandhya) and Fire ( Agni) which symbolises sacrifice, light, and quest of salvation. [6] The color is worn by Hindu saints and ascetics as their devotion toward the religion. [7] Many Hindu kingdoms and dynasties had Saffron color in their flag denoting the Sanātana Dharma, including Maratha Empire. The “Jai Shri Ram” chant heard on the 17th of September is a greeting or expression of adherence to Hinduism. But, as well as having been historically used by Hindu nationalist groups, like the VHP and the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), it has become associated with Islamophobic hate in India.

Hundreds of (allegedly) Hindu men marched through Green Lane Road as part of an unplanned protest, some of whom were masked and carrying weapons. Eyewitnesses say some were chanting “Jai Shri Ram,” which has also been captured in video footage. Other footage also shows someone tearing down a flag from a Hindu temple and another such Hindu flag being lit on fire.

The word Hindū is derived from the Sanskrit [44] root Sindhu, [45] [46] believed to be the name of the Indus River in the northwestern part of the Indian subcontinent. [47] [45] [note 11] It is called the Shabda Brahman (Brahman as sound) and believed to be the primordial sound ( pranava) of the universe. [53] Vedas [ edit ]

The use of saffron in the national flag and as political symbolism has been opposed. [8] One line of opposition asserts that the color is sacred and should not be politicized. [8] Another source of opposition comes from Islamists who claim the color is forbidden in Islam and strongly prohibited to be worn by the males.

The name was used for the saffron spice in Middle English from c. 1200. As a colour name, it dates to the late 14th century. [3]Raja Rammohan Roy is known as the father of the Hindu Renaissance. [104] He was a major influence on Swami Vivekananda, who, according to Flood, was "a figure of great importance in the development of a modern Hindu self-understanding and in formulating the West's view of Hinduism". [105] Central to his philosophy is the idea that the divine exists in all beings, that all human beings can achieve union with this "innate divinity", [102] and that seeing this divine as the essence of others will further love and social harmony. [102] According to Vivekananda, there is an essential unity to Hinduism, which underlies the diversity of its many forms. [102] According to Flood, Vivekananda's vision of Hinduism "is one generally accepted by most English-speaking middle-class Hindus today". [106] Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan sought to reconcile western rationalism with Hinduism, "presenting Hinduism as an essentially rationalistic and humanistic religious experience". [107]

According to locals, these clashes are unprecedented within these communities, which have long been unified in their struggles against racism and religiously aggravated hate crimes.Following Nazi Germany’s defeat in 1945, the Allied governments ruling the nation outlawed Nazi organizations. Their symbols and propaganda were removed and further dissemination criminalized. Subsequent German governments continued the ban on Nazi symbols and propaganda, including the swastika. Today in Germany and other European states, public display of Nazi symbols, including on the Internet , is prohibited by law and individuals violating such terms are subject to criminal proceedings.
