Best candidate fielded by any political party so far in the Lok Sabha seats of West Bengal. Rooted in her society, a product of the resistance movement led by Sandeshkhali's Bengali women. Goddess Chandi has been armed with a candidacy. Jai Maa! #LokasabhaElection2024

Birbhum is the sacred realm of Bhagavati Tara. Period. It is a 'prashasta kshetra', that is, most suitable domain for Sadhana in the Tantrik path. It is not for no reason that Maharshi Devendranath Tagore chose Bolpur in Birbhum for his Brahmo Sadhana, a derivative of Tantra.

At a time when foreign missionaries & the deracinated generation of Derozio's Young Bengal threatened to overwhelm Bengal's Hindu society, one man stood like the Himalayas to resist the deluge. Today is his 207th birthday. We owe Maharshi Devendranath Tagore (1817-1905) a lot.🙏🏻
