Lisa Ray Instagram – Repost from @shiloshivsuleman using @RepostRegramApp – Our time is cyclic so the further back we go into our past, the more we step into our (breathing/beating) future.
Today I carried a flag in my hands at a woman’s march that was first held up high by Indian women in 1911 demanding the right to vote in. More than a century later at a woman’s protest against fundamentalism- we carry the same banner dressed in khadi.
This is our dhikr. (Remembrance). This is not an uprising// this is an awakening. We are here renewing vows our ancestors made. The ones who fasted their bodies for us, that carried handspun flags, the ones who carried both tongues – Hindu and Urdu amongst others. The ones who saw god in everything, and no god but god. If there’s one thing for certain- I have never witnessed-
More beauty.
More power.
More god.
