#Dev Bahadur

[abyssal-ilk]

(on rivaini last names) it's like with birth dates, we know when dorian or cass were born, but we don't have even an estimate on sera (as per wiki at least)

i think the reason is that we've never met a rivaini that comes from nobility which would make having a surname more necessary (correct me if im wrong though)

which kind of makes me think if rivain is secretly a communist utopia or if the devs simply couldn't imagine a nobleman from rivain. which would mean something.

we have one rivaini noble, actually! well... kind of? we have queen of antiva, asha campana; originally a minor princess of rivain who married the crown prince of antiva at the time, alonzo campana. before she married campana, her full name was asha subira bahadur. she is one of two rivaini characters to my knowledge who has more than a given name– the second being cade arvale, the champion of tantervale. unsure if him being a champion elevates him to being a noble? but he does notably have more than a given name.

as far as i know we only have those two. canonically duncan did have a family name that he dropped when he joined the wardens (duncan is also notably multi-cultural; his mother was rivaini and his father was fereldan with roots in tevinter, and he was raised in orlais + the free marches while born in fereldan), and then the rest are either lords of fortune members that go by a first name (hollix and bharv), rivaini circle mages (vivienne, maleus, and rivella), an orlesian mage advisor (severan, who is interesting to me), and then isabela. we also have a few parents thrown in; duncan and isabela's mothers (tayana and hari) and then rivella's father (revaud). none of 'em with any type of family name or last name.

so i think it's a weird... idk. trend? trope? of rivaini characters being introduced that have purposefully dropped everything but a first name for one reason or another and seem isolated from their families/rivaini culture. it's weird to me. they presumably HAVE full names, or had at some point, but most of the rivaini characters we've met just... don't use them.

EDIT: we have another noble! khalida zuri siavash; the rivaini ambassador to the imperial court! also with more than a given name. zero other info tho 😔

Banda Singh Bahadur (born Lachman Dev)(27 October 1670 – 9 June 1716, Delhi), was a Sikh warrior and a commander of Khalsa army. At age 15 he left home to become a Hindu ascetic, and was given the name ‘’Madho Das’’. He established a monastery at Nānded, on the bank of the river Godāvarī, where in September 1708 he was visited by, and became a disciple of, Guru Gobind Singh, who gave him the new name of Banda Bahadur. He came to Khanda in Sonipat and assembled a fighting force and led the struggle against the Mughal Empire. His first major action was the sacking of the Mughal provincial capital, Samana, in November 1709.[1] After establishing his authority and Khalsa rule in Punjab, Banda Singh Bahadur abolished the zamindari system, and granted property rights to the tillers of the land. Banda Singh was captured by the Mughals and tortured to death in 1715-1716.

Airport Taxi Varanasi: A useful reference for travellers

Whether you are coming to see the various ghats of Varanasi that are positioned at the banks of the sacred Ganges river, the old temples or to watch out for the renowned Ganga Aarti, safe and best airport taxi Varanasi is inevitable. By hiring efficient cabs and punctual taxi services you can easily move from Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport to interested tourist attractions including Dashashwamedh Ghat and Kashi Vishwanath Temple, making your tour quite comfortable from the very beginning.

Why is Airport Transfer Service Important Choosing the Right One in Varanasi

Getting a reliable Varanasi airport taxi service is a sure way of ensuring that you experience a comfortable journey within the crowded city. These services provide well-experienced drivers who know all the lanes in the city and the cultural sites. Tourists can freely visit places of tourist interest such as Sarnath, where Lord Buutan gave his first sermon after Enlightenment and Ramnagar fort. By booking your taxi in advance everybody gets fixed fares, punctual pick-ups, and the opportunity to design their own itinerary.

 Get lost in the Culture of Varanasi

Thus Varanasi is not merely a religious city it is also an Indian Open Air Museum, which represents Indian culture. When one is dancing to opera or rocking to classical music and the other is witnessing the craftsmanship of Banarasi saree hand weaving. On a tour using an airport taxi service in Varanasi, there are the best cultural points of interest, such as the Bharat Kala Bhavan Museum and the quiet Assi Ghat. It also celebrates live festivals like Dev Deepawali, which transforms the city into a great light show.

Cultural-Heritage Sites That You Should Not Miss When Visiting Varanasi

Just like any other tourist destination, there are practices that are taken to visit the leading attractions in the city of Varanasi. First, the religious Kashi Vishwanath Temple, then go to Manikarnika Ghat which is spiritual. You can hire an airport taxi from Varanasi for Sarnath which is only 10 km away from Varanasi, a perfect destination for peace-loving Buddhism lovers. To have an incredible feeling, try walking in and around the crowded New Vishwanath Temple campus of BHU which is one of the largest universities in South Asia.

 Useful Tips to Remember whenever you are on a Trip

While planning your tour booking an airport taxi service Varanasi in advance is wise. This is helpful both in terms of time and getting travel insurance knowing you are covered should something go wrong during the busy seasons. Of course, your schedule must include a boat ride in the morning at the Ganges and shopping in the local markets for trinkets such as Banarasi sarees. Ensure you enjoy the local foods within the city such as kachori-sabzi and malaiyo. If then you hire an airport taxi that is reliable then it is not just a journey to Varanasi but a historic and cultural one.

'Sam Bahadur': a series of fortunate events

The first mortar of thought that struck me as I watched Vicky Kaushal play Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Manekshaw was this: did Dev Anand channel one of India’s best-known army enigma in his gruff turn as Major Manohar Lal Verma in the thoughtful musical, Hum Dono (Both of Us)? And did Kaushal, in turn, draw upon the vigorous lilt and dapper sway of Anand’s signature dialogue delivery for this…

Hamara Jissum Sirf Jatt Hae. https://youtu.be/VNsb0XBGT_k Gospel according to Christ = Satguru Rajinder:- End Time is not far away. The Last Prophecy in the New Testament Matt 13v24-30 is getting fulfilled. The sons of Satan, Tares, Jews outwardly as today we have Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims, etc. of appearances in which they had replaced their tribal identity like Jatt, Khatri, Arorra, Bania, etc. with the Shirt religious selves and had become the sons of the highest Satan Al-Djmar Al-Aksa that the three Lalas; Lala M.K. Gandhi, a Bania, Lala Tara Singh Malhotra Khatri and Lala Mohd. Ali Jinnah, a Babla Bhatia created soon after the death of our Messiah Chaudhry Chhotu Ram Olylan Jatt in 1944 designed and that led to the Partition and Bloodshed in India whilst worse than that this Lala Narendra Modi, a Bania is going to create through civil war. So, better wake up and unite under One Banner of Jatt Qom of the Aryan Race. In India, under the Aryan race, we have Yadav Bans in which Jatt form the majority. This Kalyug belongs to the people of Khatri tribe, most clever opportunists to fleece people economically and politically. That is why all the Ten Lights, 6 Satgurus = Christs and 4 Royal Kings = Sachae Patshahs appeared among them but they turned around and killed them. The last most clever Khwaja Khatri got Sachae Patshah Gobind Singh Ji uprooted from Anand Pur Sahib. In short, most of the people of Khatri tribe could not be trusted and this Saying became popular:- KHATRI PUTTRING; KISSAE NAA MITRING. MITTRING HI MITTRING, DAGHAH DITTRING. This Lala Nalwa was an Uppal Khatri and so was Lala Madho Dass who became Banda Bahadur, a Meena Sodhi Khatri greater than Lala Prithvi Chand Sodhi Khatri, a staunch enemy of Satguru Arjan Dev Ji. In short, let us Jatts of India and Pakistan get together or the Sheikh Khatris and Bania Modi are going to kill us. UNITE OR PERISH, ALL UP TO YOU. Remember, our Jatt Unity Messiah, Chaudhry Chhotu Ram Ohylan stressed that religion is a shirt that you can change at will but not the God-given physical body Jatt that was born and will die. Our Chaudhry Maninder Sandhu Jatt has started the YouTube Channel Jatt Unity; please support him. Our other Jatt from Pakistan, Chaudhry Ahsan Randhawa, will do the same. We need technical and promotional help.

Banda Singh Bahadur (born Lachman Dev)(27 October 1670 – 9 June 1716, Delhi), was a Sikh warrior and a commander of Khalsa army. At age 15 he left home to become a Hindu ascetic, and was given the name ‘’Madho Das’’. He established a monastery at Nānded, on the bank of the river Godāvarī, where in September 1708 he was visited by, and became a disciple of, Guru Gobind Singh, who gave him the new name of Banda Bahadur. He came to Khanda in Sonipat and assembled a fighting force and led the struggle against the Mughal Empire. His first major action was the sacking of the Mughal provincial capital, Samana, in November 1709.[1] After establishing his authority and Khalsa rule in Punjab, Banda Singh Bahadur abolished the zamindari system, and granted property rights to the tillers of the land. Banda Singh was captured by the Mughals and tortured to death in 1715-1716.

The history of the Sikh is a rich palette of spiritual evolution, brave warriors and unshakable principles that have left an indelible mark on the world. The roots of Sikhism date back to the 15th century in the South Asian state of Punjab, where Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the first of the Sikh gurus, laid the foundation for a new faith based on the concept of the One Supreme Creator. Guru Nanak Dev Ji was a visionary mystic and philosopher who tried to bridge the gap between different religious and social communities. He advocated equality of all human beings irrespective of caste, religion and gender. Guru Nanak's teachings were captured in hymns and poems, which later became the holy scripture of Sikhism, known as the Guru Granth Sahib.

The family of Sikh Gurus continued even after Guru Nanak Dev ji passed away, each offering chadar to the other. After him Guru Angad Dev Ji, Guru Amar Das Ji, Guru Ram Das Ji and Guru Arjan Dev Ji became. Guru Arjan Dev ji played an important role in shaping Sikhism by compiling the writings of not only Sikh Gurus but also saints of different religions. This collection has become the basis of Sikh literature and has become an important guide for the Sikh community.

The fifth Guru, Guru Arjan Dev Ji, faced great persecution from the Mughal emperor Jahangir, who saw Sikhism as a challenge to his rule. Guru Arjan Dev Ji was martyred in 1606, becoming the first Sikh Guru to sacrifice his life for the principles he espoused.

Guru Hargobind Sahib, the sixth Guru, succeeded Guru Arjan Dev Ji and became the first teacher of the Guru Warriors. He led the Sikhs through a period of intense struggle against the oppressive Mughal rule. Guru Hargobind Sahib supported the Miri-Piri concept which emphasized spiritual and temporal authority. He wields two swords to symbolize this duality, marking the beginning of the Sikh martial tradition.

Guru Har Rai Ji and Guru Har Krishan Ji followed him as the seventh and eighth gurus respectively, contributing to the spiritual and humanitarian aspects of Sikhism. Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji, the ninth Guru, stood out as a champion of religious freedom and tolerance. He sacrificed his life to protect the rights of Hindus and their religion during the reign of Emperor Aurangzeb.

Finally, the stage was set before the tenth and last human guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji. He faced enormous challenges in his life, including the loss of his father, Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji, and the persecution of the Sikhs. Guru Gobind Singh Ji tried to awaken the Sikh community and prepare it to face difficulties with courage. In 1699 he founded the Khalsa, a special community of Sikhs bound by a code of conduct, baptized in Amri, the sacred nectar.

Under the leadership of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the Sikhs became fearsome warriors and staunch defenders of the truth. The Khalsa formation instilled a spirit of fearlessness and devotion to justice among the Sikhs, empowering them to confront tyranny and oppression.

In the following centuries, the Sikh community suffered various trials and tribulations, but the principles of equality, service and devotion to the Creator remained unchanged. Sikh warriors such as Banda Singh Bahadur fought valiantly against tyranny and established a brief but influential Sikh kingdom in the early 18th century. After Baba Banda Singh Bahadur Martyrdom, there were many warriors: like Sardar Nawab Kapur, Sardar Jassa Singh Ramgarhia, Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwaia, Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa and many more.

Sikh history embodies a legacy of spiritual enlightenment, unflinching courage and service to humanity. Today, Sikhs around the world continue to follow the teachings of their Gurus and contribute positively to their communities while maintaining the values that have defined their remarkable journey through history.
