Shivaji's Tribute: The Vision of Hindavi Swarajya

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the philosophical and ideological foundation of Shivaji Maharaj's quest for Swarajya—the concept of Hindavi Swarajya. They discuss the influence of the Maratha saint Ramdas Swami, the sacking of Surat in 1664 and 1670 as acts of resistance, and the delicate balance between Hindu and Muslim subjects in Shivaji's kingdom. The conversation also touches on the controversial execution of Sambhaji's wife's family and the legacy of Shivaji's inclusive governance. #ShivajiMaharaj #HindaviSwarajya #RamdasSwami #SuratSack #MarathaEmpire #MughalEmpire #Aurangzeb #Deccan #Sambhaji #ChhatrapatiShivaji #Swarajya #Mavalas #GuerrillaWarfare #IndianHistory #FexingoHistory #SouthAsia #Podcast #History #RaigadFort #PratapgadBattle Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
