The Ashoka Chakra: A Symbol of Dharma and Peace

In the center of India's national flag, the Ashoka Chakra is much more than just a design - it is a symbolism that reaches deep into Buddhism and Indian history. It got its name from Emperor Ashoka, the greatest ruler India has ever had in its history. The Ashoka Chakra depicts the Dharmachakra, or the "Wheel of Dharma," which refers to and represents the path of righteousness and the spread of Shakyamuni Buddha's teachings.

The story of Emperor Ashoka's transformation is one of the marvellous stories ever. He was overwhelmed by feelings of repentance at the excesses of bloodshed in the Kalinga War. It was then that he converted to Buddhism and pledged to give up violence and live for the principles of Dharma: compassion, truth, and non-violence. It was truly representative of this great change in Ashoka's life and his commitment to spreading the teachings of The Buddha in the Ashoka Chakra.

The wheel, with 24 spokes in the Ashoka Chakra, is symbolically important. Each spoke holds an attribute of Shakyamuni Buddha's teaching in a different way, like compassion, courage, patience, peace, and values that rule upon ethics and morals in life. These spokes further symbolize the moving wheels, incessant motion, and progress that Dharma brings into our lives just like time's endless cycles.

The Ashoka Chakra is embedded in the center of India's national flag. It, therefore, is an ever-reminding factor for the people concerning the ways of justice and righteousness and the ways of spiritual growth, which at the same time, is ever on the journey. It is a sort of eternal wheel of the law guiding the nation, showing that truth and nonviolence will ever hold a prime position in its very existence.

The Ashoka Chakra symbolizes an enriched heritage of India, its rich history, and has become like a lighthouse of hope, peace, and the noble teachings of Buddhism that inspire millions across continents.

Hey sorry pretty random question.

You must have seen some Indians try to make efforts in forming solidarity with Roma in Europe. I remember reblogging one such post from you and being really happy about it. But I read more about it recently. And it seems to be meddled with nationalist politics-

https://thewire.in/diplomacy/the-modi-government-and-rss-are-keen-to-claim-the-roma-as-indians-and-hindus

I also feel that saying Romani people are actually just Indian diaspora (even though the economic gap is huge between NRIs and Roma in Europe and therefore will not prove useful to lump you in with them) on "foreign lands" gives Europeans more leverage to add xenophobic styled framework to their anti Roma racism. But obviously this is more of your concern than ours and you probably have read more. So what are your opinions?

Hi!

Yup, I partially agree with you. I don't know much about Indian politics but a lot of the times I've looked into it I've been left with a feeling that this might be a nationalistic move.

I am saying 'partially' because I do think that a lot of Indian-Romani relations are genuinely formed out of solidarity. For example, the Romani flag looks like this:

It was adopted at the first Romani World Congress, in 1971; the red wheel is explicitly based on the Ashoka Chakra.

There are Indian scholars that specialized in Romani studies during the 20th century: Weer Rajendra Rishi and Janardhan Singh Pathania, whose learning book on Romani language starts with this:

His book features letters he exchanged with Romani people for the making of his book. On the other hand, it is in my experience very common for Romani people to be interested in India, Indian history and Indian cultures, we are way more open to it than other Europeans. I've also seen a few of the most well-off Romani associations organizing trips to India. All of these are examples of true solidarity to me.

However when it comes to how it's handled in politics I am a bit on edge. I had come across a similar article to the one you sent me, also saying that Modi's External Affairs Minister wants to recognize Roma as part of the Indian diaspora. And because I am not so well-versed in Indian politics I didn't really know what conclusions to draw from this. I remember wondering if those Indian politicians wanted to keep Roma on the side just in case the way Roma are treated becomes relevant in discussions between Indian and European countries, but nothing like this has happened yet. The article you sent me goes into more details though and I can clearly see the nationalist edge in it.

What I've noticed is that some of the Roma who get deep into the Romani-Indian connection can get a little too much intense about it (because we don't have a flag emoji, a lot of Roma use the Indian flag emoji to talk about Romani issues; some Roma will wear Indian clothing or jewellery; some Roma will even call themselves Indian), granted it's not criminal to do any of this, but sometimes it seems like they are getting rid of their identity as Roma to present themselves as Indian and that's weird. Some Roma have also converted to Hinduism to reconnect with India (which is stupid because not all Indians are Hindu) and some also give their opinion on Indian politics, which feels weird. I also heard some Roma saying they hoped we could get Indian citizenship or something lol. I think Indian politicians could realistically get some Roma behind Indian nationalist politics.

As for how it plays into European anti-Roma racism, I have heard of far-right protests in Czech Republic and in Hungary saying we should be deported to India. Some Neo-Nazis support that idea, like this far-right Czech guy:

But I think it's still a fringe idea among the European far-right, most of them don't have one coherent goal on how to treat Roma, a lot will just say we should 'leave the country' (without specifying where should we go) or we should just be shot. I don't think saying Roma are part of the Indian diaspora will give more leverage to European xenophobia because European xenophobia against Roma is already very high; if anything it will transform the way it's expressed but it will not worsen it nor will it alleviate it.

I had talked a bit about some of these issues here!

For the NUPS (Naruto Uzumaki Protection Squad) AU I like to think that it’s either Choji or Shikamaru that find out about Naruto’s massive chakra reserves. I’m more particular to Choji finding out first tho and then bringing it up to Ashoka mainly because I like think that Choji’s clan were allied with Uzumaki’s and while most of the clan doesn’t believe Naruto is truly one Choji still grew up on stories from his Dad and possibly Aunt that Uzumakis have such massive amounts of chakra that control has to start young or from the more chakra intense stages of chakra control. Also would Kakashi or Iruka or maybe Teuchi drop info bout sealing or is that also something Choji brings up and Kakashi/Iruka drop off supplies/scrolls/books about it and occasionally check in on their work? Also I love Naruto being able to recognize who was/is Anbu based off of their chakra and if he’s felt the chakra around him when younger. I also think Genma should drop in on this maybe via extra food or clothing/weapon specifics?

I love the idea of Choji noticing Naruto’s chakra and going to his family. I love the thought of them being like “well I can’t tell you about this one specific kid for Reasons™️ but I did once know someone who had the same name (unrelated I swear)” and giving him the “Caring for an Uzumaki 101” talk passed down through the generations that had be learned through trial, error and a great many explosions. I love the idea of quiet rebellion against a cruel system that allowed a little boy to be forgotten and abused and compliance only as far as what the written word implies and not a single bit more.

Naruto recognizing Kakashi as safe even if he doesn’t fully remember why. Doesn’t remember that he’s always slept better during thunderstorms because they felt like coming home. Doesn’t remember that the howling of wolves was once a lullaby. Doesn’t remember, it trusts all the same. (Then he sees an ANBU walk by that feels incredibly familiar and gets it.)

Genma would love this pack of demons. He could do without them calling him “Oral Fixation-san” but the little shits are hilarious. He comes bearing gifts and really if he befriends the little Nara heir it’s not his fault that the kid is attached at the hip with the very little boy he’s supposed to ignore. It would be rude not to include all of the kids friends after all.

Tiranga Game A Celebration of Unity and Heritage

The Tiranga Game is a dynamic and engaging activity that resonates deeply with the spirit of India, symbolized by its national flag. The term "Tiranga" translates to "tricolor" in Hindi, reflecting the three horizontal stripes of the Indian flag: saffron, white, and green. This game is more than just a recreational pursuit; it is a celebration of cultural pride, patriotism, and community spirit. This article explores the origins, significance, rules, and broader impact of the Tiranga Game, highlighting its role in fostering national identity and unity.

The Symbolism of the Tiranga

The Indian national flag is a powerful emblem of the country's journey towards freedom and self-determination.

The Tiranga serves as a daily reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during the struggle for independence. When the flag is hoisted, it evokes a sense of pride, responsibility, and patriotism among citizens. The Tiranga Game transforms these values into a fun and interactive format, encouraging participants to engage with their heritage while fostering a sense of belonging.

The Significance of the Tiranga Game

Promoting Physical Fitness and Well-being

Physical activity is essential for maintaining health and well-being. The Tiranga Game encourages participants to engage in active play, fostering a love for sports and outdoor activities. This emphasis on physical fitness contributes not only to improved health but also to mental well-being.

Celebrating Cultural Heritage

The Tiranga Game is a vibrant celebration of India’s rich cultural heritage.

By participating in international events, the Tiranga Game can showcase India’s diverse culture and heritage to the world.

Environmental Awareness

Incorporating elements of environmental awareness into the Tiranga Game can enhance its relevance in today’s world. Activities focused on sustainability, such as tree planting or recycling challenges, could align the game with global efforts to combat climate change. This holistic approach would make the Tiranga Game not only a celebration of national pride but also a platform for promoting responsible citizenship and environmental stewardship.

Conclusion

The Tiranga Game is more than just a recreational activity; it embodies the spirit of India—its history, culture, and values. By engaging individuals of all ages in a celebration of unity and heritage, it fosters a deeper understanding of what it means to be part of this diverse nation.

It encourages us to come together, celebrate our differences, and foster a collective identity rooted in pride and responsibility toward our nation. The spirit of the Tiranga will live on in every heart, guiding us toward a brighter, united future.
