Maybe something like Jaya Bhagavaan. Of course the amazing thing (to me) about Hinduism is the tendency towards non standardization, and the sheer diversity of symbolism despite the attempts to simplify it down to a single religious identity.
- eyeundersand 6y agoYes. Jaya Bhagwaan would be a lot closer, however I can't recall having heard it in any setting. It's usually Jay Shambho or Jay Shree Krishna and such, which are perhaps equivalents, although non-monotheism in the Sanatani Dharma prevents an exact analog to allah hu akbar, imo. Fair point about the non-standardization. Read somewhere that the Sanatani corpus/philosophy is the Linux of religions, which I thought was quite apt. Namaste.
