And the ebook version of The Opium Wars here:

Victorian Great Britain imported luxurious and exotic items from China, but China only accepted payments in silver, creating a huge imbalance in trade. To avoid losing money on imported goods, Britain had to sell something back to China, and in desperation, the decision was made for Britain to sell opium.

When diplomatic efforts to introduce opium to the Chinese market failed, the British Parliament approved an alternative: war. There were two wars, one from 1839 to 1842 and another from 1856 to 1860. They are collectively known as the Opium Wars. These conflicts are largely forgotten in the Western world, perhaps out of a sense of collective shame. But in China, the Opium Wars are still symbols of national humiliation at the hands of the Western powers.

a lot of information in this video is misleading a incorrect. Many event given here never happened. Sai ha burned herself on shivas insult and parvati was her rebirth. Also parvatis father did not like shiva as the groom for his daughter

[thejoker]

There is a lot of error in this video.

[sealofapoorval]

To everyone saying that this is a false story, this is just a version of the story. As hindus, our religion spread over a vast area of losnd over many thousands of years and so usually there are many different versions of a single story. Doesnt mean that the one you heard is the most correct one.

[Aman-tdnl]

[prernanair]

Please do proper research before stating such information. What you have mentioned is 75% wrong.

Goddess lalitha ( prakruthi) is the parabrahman ( nirguna parabrahman) . She created everything including the three greatest gods ( Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva) . And she ordered Brahma to create and Vishnu to generate and Shiva to destroy . She is the highest power and she is beyond everything and everyone.

[saikiran]

Feels like a fictional story created from few bits of the original story

[manishpauli]

As a native i want to tell you, our myths have a very strong touch of mordern science, concept of planets and universe is very distinctly defined, earth is small entity and most of creation story happend in space. Think of it smilar to an small island and rest of land as space you will understand it better this way. Important things happened in space.

[udaykishor]

Brahma did not marry his own daughter he married daughter of mahalakshmi saraswati. His daughter sarasvati married vishnu.
There are two goddess named saraswati they are apra saraswati who is Brahma daughter and pra saraswati who is the daughter of Brahman (He is not same as Brahma they are two individuals). In rigveda it is written but in purana they are talking about his kingdom. Lord Brahma is called Prajapati and a king is also called parjapati. And the king's sabha (minister) and villages are called daughters of the king and it is written in the perspective of that.
British scholars changed the whole meaning of the context that was written in Sanskrit.
Anyway Brahma daughter is white in colour and the Brahma wife is red in colour.
