Naam Tamilar Party's Desanskritisation movement was institutionalised through the creation of Veera Tamilar Munnani. Veera Tamilar Munnani has been in the forefront of recovering Tamil identities from the Sanskritisation process.
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
NTK uses the secular casteless Sangam era as the benchmark for Tamil cultural authenticity and promotes Thirukkural as the moral code of the Tamil Nation. Veera Tamilar Munnani events are a celebration & exhibition of Tamil authenticity
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
Veera Tamilar Munnani's Oath or உறுதிமொழி too highlights this.
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
Seeman rejects the idea of creationism but recognises the importance of ancestor worship and Nadukal and Ainthinai(Sangam landscape) forms of worship. These forms of indigenous or nature worship belongs to the land and have a tradition that predates religion.
While DMK openly refers to itself as a 90% Hindu party, NTK is right the opposite. NTK says "We are Not Hindus, We are Tamils".
The events of NTK, big or small start with the traditional Parai Music. This is in contrast with the cinema and glamour songs traditions of the Dravidian parties. NTK has developed party traditions aimed mainly at promoting Tamilness. #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
Desanskritizing Murugan was one of major operations of #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement . In this one move,NTK clearly drew the distinction between the appropriated Aryanised/Sanskritized/White skinned Skandhan and the original Tamil Murugan.This was a major சம்பவம் against Aryam
Seeman took it one step further and installed Tamil Murugan without Punool in front of his house. 😂 This pissed off a lot of Sanghis. They called Seeman Simon and accused him of christianising Murugan. 😂 What else can Sanghis do? #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
NTK didnt just remove the Punool, it totally reintroduced the Murugan identity in its original form minus the Sanskritisation that happened through the Skandha puranic appropriation. NTK totally destroyed the fake image of a fair skinned punool wearing curd rice eating Murugan.
"Our Murugan is dark.
He is not your vegetarian fair skinned boy. Our Murugan is a meat eater, do you think he carries a Vel to cut cucumbers and brinjals?" - Seeman
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
From Murugan to Raavanan the images of all Tamil identities were desanskritized by Veera Tamilar Munnani. #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
After this Veera Tamilar Munnani hosted the Village Poosaris conference that brought together all Non-Brahmin priests from the Tamil country.This conference was a celebration of indigenous traditions.Sikh comrades too participated in this event
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
The Sanghi media said that Tamils were trying to appropriate Murugan 😂😂 They said "a dangerous trend of Tamil seccesionism was trying to appropriate Murugan". They called Seeman a Christian conspiracy 😂 Seeman was like வாய்ப்பில்ல ராஜா
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
Naam Tamilar Katchi also fought a legal battle against Sanghi Ravi Shankar of Art of Living foundation responsible for ecological damage at Yamuna flood plains and prevented them from holding an event in the Periya Kovil heritage site.
#NTK_desanskritization_Movement
NTK was also the only political party that was in the forefront of the campaign for Tamil Kudamulakku in Thanjai Periya Kovil. This was a linguistic right of the owners of the land that was denied for centuries by the Aryan Brahminical order
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
NTK Veera Thamilar Munnani's Senthil Nathan was behind the legal battle to reinstate Tamil in the Thanjai Periya Kovil along with the Tamil Thesiya Periyakkam. #NTK_Desanskritization_movement
NTK is emerging as the only political party in Tamil Nadu that has Desanskritization of Tamil cultural, heritage sites and customs as one of its main agenda. Reinstating Tamil in Thanjai Periya Kovil is a major victory for NTK in this regard.
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
While NTK was busy fighting for Tamil Saivites Linguistic rights in Tamil heritage site Thanjai Periya Kovil, Dravida Kazhagam & DMK cadres were busy helping Hindutva scums by defaming Raja Rajan and all Chola related history and identities #NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Criticism of Raja Rajan is important but dismissing the entire Chola history and branding it as Brahminical is stupid politics. That is what Hindutva wants. It makes the work of Sanskritising Tamil culture and heritage sites much easier for them
#NTK_Densanskritization_movement
The Brahminical order had for a long time spread the rumour that entering Periya Kovil through the Thalai Vaasal(Main entrance) was unlucky for leaders. A lot of leaders believe this. Seeman broke that norm too.
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
Seeman entered the temple on the Kudamulakku day along with one of the regional coordinators of NTK, Mr.Huyamun . Mr.Humayun was also honoured alongside Seeman. Two people of different faiths standing together as Tamils irked a lot of Sanghis #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
A "Non-Hindu" being honoured inside the Thanjai Periya Kovil didn't sit well with most of the Sanghis. They called Mr.Humayun a Muslim terrorist and criticised NTK. Hindutva scums still don't understand that Thanjai Periya Kovil is primarily a Tamil heritage site.
Desanskritising Thai Poosam is another important campaign of NTK that has attracted a lot of interest in recent times. Thai Poosam, another unique festival of the Tamils that adds to the importance of the "Thai" month was also appropriated by Hinduism through its Purana BS
Seeman has been the only political leader that has vociferously called out and condemned this appropriation. He has been demanding a public holiday for Thai Poosam for a very long time. No other party backs this proposal. #NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Seeman directly put forward this request to the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu during his meeting with him a few days ago. #NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
NTK also celebrates Thai Poosam and uses it to spread awareness about the Non-Vedic, authentic Tamil forms of worship. Reclaiming Thai Poosam is the next important step taken in the desanskritization of Murugan and Sangam related identities. #NTK_Desanskritization_movement
More details on Thai Poosam festival & its origins 👇 #NTK_Desanskritization_movement https://twitter.com/mrpaluvets/status/1226324977109962752?s=19
NTK's Thai Poosam activities that promote the desanskritized Murugan has irked BJP's H.Raja a lot. He has vented out his anger on social media. This reaction was an expected one.
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
While NTK is promoting a desanskritized Murugan in his original form, the DMK cadres are busy promoting the Aryan version of it.
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Despite the continuous attacks from the Sanghis and ridicule from the Dravidian factions, NTK continues its journey on its path towards Desanskritization of Tamil identities.
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
'Thirumuruga Peru vizha' organised by Veera Tamilar Munnani of NTK is an event that brings together all these various campaigns that work towards the common goal of Desanskritization
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Seeman starts his speech on Thirumuruga Peru vizha by defining desanskritization by stressing the need to defeat Aryanisation/Sanskritization
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
While the Dravidian parties are busy diluting Periyarism for electoral gains, Seeman despite denouncing Dravidian identity politics, continues to quote Periyar to denounce Indian Nationalism and Hindu identity politics.
#NTK_Desanskritization_Movement
Dravidian institutions failed to provide a platform for Non-Vedic ideologies to fight its war against the Aryan Vedic appropriation. The current DK spends more time alienating natural allies in the form of atheism and DMK bigotry
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Even in the middle of the war, the Tigers diverted some of their resources into studying, recording and preserving the Naattaariyal(folklore) identities of Eelam. The Tigers used Sangam era symbolism to highlight and worship the fallen #NTK_desanskritization_movement
The Tigers understood the importance of encouraging secular and indigenous traditions of the past in order to unite and organise the present nation. DK is yet to ritualise events related to the warriors who fell fighting against Hindi imposition #NTK_Desanskritization_movement
Note how Aagama Tamil scholar Sathiyavel Muruganar, a scholar leading the war against Vedic appropriation highlights the lack of space for his resistance within the 'atheistic' political outfits.
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
It is worth noting here that Hindu Munnani has been attacking Mr.Muruganar vigorously and has been trying to ban most of his events. Veera Tamilar Munnani hosts him and celebrates him. This is how you hit Sanathanam.
#NTK_Desanskritization_movement
We shouldn't be explaining to people that we are not 'anti-Hindu'we should be forcing the Hindutva scums to prove their Tamilness. They will lose automatically when we put forward Tamil as our primary organising principle.That is what NTK is doing
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
When NTK says "We are not Hindus", it refuses to play by the rules set by Hindutva. Why should Hindutva define our organising principle?. Who are they to define who we are? We are Tamils firstly and lastly.
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
Our primary job is to expose the anti-Tamil attitude and agendas of the Hindutva factions. We should force them to explain to the Tamils how Hindu organisations are not Anti-Tamil. We set the rules in our Nation, not them!
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
DMK's Prashant Kishores will not understand this because they think like Hindus. We Tamils, are a different stock of people from the rest of India. We need to assert it!
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
NTK is also currently the only party that speaks of conducting Raavana Leela to counter the Aryan Rama Leela tradition that dehumanises Tamils. NTK's @idumbaikarthi has asked @DrSenthil_MDRD if DMK has the guts to conduct a Raavana Leela like NTK #NTK_desanskritization_movement
@DrSenthil_MDRD continues to evade the question.
#NTK_desanskritization_movement
BJP's H.Raja has started to question Thanjai Periya Kovil authorities as to how they allowed a NTK person from a different faith to enter the temple premises.The attacks & smear campaigns against NTK by the Hindutva factions is on the rise again #NTK_desanskritization_movement.
Rajini fans aka 'Sanghis that watch Tamil cinema' are now trying their level best to frame Seeman's Desanskritization activity as a 'Christian missionary activity'. 😂😂 https://twitter.com/PrakashPositive/status/1232636553874178048?s=19
