Every calculation you have ever done uses a system India invented.

Before Indian mathematicians gave the world zero and the decimal place, Greek and Roman maths used letters for numbers. Try multiplying MXLVII by CCXCIV. Merchants, architects and astronomers across the ancient world were trapped.

Baghdad's Al-Khwarizmi (c.780–847) transmitted it west. His book on the Indian place system and algorithmic calculation laid the foundation of modern mathematics. The word "algorithm" is a corruption of his name. "Algebra" comes from his treatise title. Both are Arabic transmissions of Indian originals.

Abraham Seidenberg's History of Mathematics credits India's Sulba Sutras as the inspiration for all mathematics of the ancient world.

Lin Yutang, Chinese philosopher: "India was China's teacher in trigonometry, quadratic equations, grammar, phonetics."

Carl Sagan thought Vedic cosmology the only ancient system whose timescales correspond to modern scientific cosmology.

Every time a computer runs, it counts in a system India designed.

One of the most powerful symbols of India’s unbroken civilizational continuity!

Discovered at Mohenjo-daro in undivided India this steatite seal, about 4,300-year-old, shows a seated figure in yogic posture (widely seen as Shiva-Pashupati) seated in Mulabandhasana, surrounded by animals.

While ancient sites may lie across modern borders, India remains the living custodian of this heritage. The yogic posture, Shaivite symbolism, and spiritual ethos seen in the Pashupati Seal continue to thrive in India’s temples, daily worship of Shiva, yogic traditions, and cultural life even today.

From the Vedic period to contemporary Bharat, this civilizational thread has remained alive and unbroken — deeply embedded in our philosophy, rituals, and collective consciousness.🇮🇳

In our ancient texts, when the rishis mapped the internal enemies of human consciousness (Shadripu), they listed things like lust (Kama), anger (Krodha) & greed (Lobha). But the ultimate, most subtle virus they identified was Matsarya (मात्सर्य).

Modern dictionaries loosely translate Matsarya as jealousy. In Sankhya philosophy, Matsarya is much more sinister. It is defined as the inability to bear the presence/happiness/rise of another being. It is the pain our ego feels simply because someone else exists & is being noticed.

X is a platform designed entirely to trigger Matsarya. Every time an individual posts a success/an opinion/a moment of spotlight, it lands directly on the feeds of 1000s of others whose minds are in a state of Asat (restlessness).

The ego cannot process the other person's space, so it immediately weaponizes Krodha (anger) as a self-defense mechanism to pull them down. The hatred on X is nothing but millions of bruised egos experiencing Matsarya simultaneously in a digital public square.

This 4,500-year-old terracotta dice from the Indus-Saraswati Civilization is a powerful reminder of India’s living heritage. Dicing is also mentioned as a popular game in Rig and Atharva Vedas (two of the four sacred Vedic scriptures).

From symbols and craftsmanship to rituals, yogic practices, and collective memory, numerous elements of ancient Indian civilization continue to thrive in the daily social and religious life of Indian society across regions and communities.

Civilizational inheritance is not just about geography or ruins, it is defined by living customs, symbols, rituals, and unbroken cultural consciousness. India is the enduring living continuity of the Indus-Saraswati Civilization.

Ancient India has been banking them for 3000 yrs in a way that modern science is only now validating.

In South India (Tamil Nadu), there is an ancient practice called the Tayittu/Thayittu. After birth, the umbilical cord stump is dried, powdered, & sealed inside a gold/silver amulet & tied to the child’s waist/arm.

According to Vedic tradition & local folklore, if the child fell extremely ill later in life, the amulet was opened, & the powder (the dried cord tissue) was ingested/applied as medicine.

Modern researchers have found that even in dried umbilical tissue, certain stromal cell signals & growth factors can remain stable. The Tayittu was essentially a low tech cryobank, based on the belief that the source of life (umbilical tissue) could act as a biological reset button for the body.

@joshimanasi11 Congratulations @joshimanasi11. Thank you for your hard work and dedication resulting into podium finish consistently. You are motivation to many players in country. Proud of you and all persons associated with you in this journey. Keep going all the best.

@ErikSolheim Beautiful work indeed @ErikSolheim but I am afraid for future when 1000s of such robots deployed on borders against humans or terrorists start using them. Sufficient safeguards are necessary against any threat to humanity in future.

Medical doctor using AI:
"Just on a lark, I was able to create, in about 2 weeks, and a hundred million tokens, an entire medical school curriculum. 450 lectures and notes, 16000 figures. Multiple rounds of error checking show that the work is 99% flawless. Going to release and open source it soon. Normally this takes years of work from hundreds of humans. Instead an agent swarm from Claude Code was able to do it in days."

Exhilarating and scary.

#BREAKING: Russian President Putin at Valdai Club in Sochi on Trump Tariffs, says, “Indian people will look at what decisions are made by their political leadership. Indian people will never accept any humiliation. I know PM Modi, he will never take any steps of the kind.”

"IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR MOTHERLAND THEN YOU ALSO HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT".

12 hours after Tharoor's plea Indian Americans still inert.

Are powerful C-Suite Indo-Americans so "naturalised" that they have whitewashed their Indianess?

[Megh Updates 🚨™ @MeghUpdates]

5 US Congressmen told Shashi Tharoor – 'Not one Indian American has ever lobbied us for India.'

Shocking! Despite being one of the most influential diasporas, Indian community in the US hasn’t spoken up for the country of their origin. A big miss for India’s voice abroad!

[AMIT KAUSHIK @KauAmit]

@sanjeevsanyal He is right. I am a Brahmin and I made $10 million in last month due to India buying oil from Russia 😂. This seems a case of some advisor who referred wik…..dia and gave script to his boss. If not then India should take this narrative seriously.

[AMIT KAUSHIK @KauAmit]

@sidhant I guess the frustration is at peak. If senior functionaries of Govt start using this language, it is a signal that they are now looking to break the fabric of society and divide country and communities. This has been always the hidden agenda of western powers.

26 years of #Kargil

#OnThisDay, 20 June 1999, Point 5140 — the highest enemy-occupied post in the #Tololing area — was recaptured after a fierce battle.

#LestWeForgetIndia 🇮🇳 A company of 13 JAK RIF, led by Captain Vikram Batra, assaulted the fortified enemy position. He personally killed four intruders in a hand-to-hand fight. After heavy fighting, Point 5140 was captured by 0330 hours on 20 June.

At 0435 hrs, Capt Batra radioed his command post, uttering the four words now immortalised — "Yeh Dil Maange More." 🏵️

His words weren’t just a victory cry — they became the heartbeat of the nation.

To those who habitually threaten India on the “Chicken Neck Corridor”, should note these facts as well:

1️⃣ Bangladesh has two of its own “chicken necks”. Both are far more vulnerable

2️⃣ First is the 80 Km North Bangladesh Corridor- from Dakhin Dinajpur to South West Garo Hills. Any disruption here, can completely isolate the entire Rangpur division from rest of Bangladesh.

3️⃣Second is the 28 km Chittagong Corridor, from South Tripura till the Bay of Bengal. This corridor, smaller than India’s chicken neck, is the only link between Bangladesh’s economic capital and political capital.

I am only presenting geographical facts that some may tend to forget.

Just like India’s Siliguri Corridor, our neighbouring country is also embedded with two narrow corridors of theirs.

Indians gave Rs 4,000+cr to Turkey & Azerbaijan last year through tourism. Created jobs. Boosted their economy, hotels, weddings, flights.

Today, both stand with Pakistan after Pahalgam attack.

Plenty of beautiful places in India & the world.
Please skip these 2 places.
Jai Hind.
