देशवासियों के इन्हीं गुणों से भारत आज अपने सामर्थ्य को निरंतर बढ़ा रहा है…

In Tamil Nadu, the BJP being in power at the centre has been used by essentially all the parties to demonize them. The DMK made "attack Modi" as their only plank. EdappadiDMK (that is the correct name) would have done the same thing if the Congress had switched over to them. In Tamil, we call this பூச்சாண்டி காட்டுதல் - like my grandmother would tell me as a kid "that tree next to the pond has a ghost that will catch you, so don't go near it" to keep me away from swimming in the pond! Modi is their favorite பூச்சாண்டி.

So when someone parrots the line "we want to keep the BJP out of Tamil Nadu", they are saying "we don't want competition for our cozy duopoly", not some deep principle. The BJP has been in alliance in AP and Pondicherry and those states are doing fine, they are making excellent progress. Yet TN is supposedly "different".

The "difference" was the BJP getting into alliance with these same parties (EDMK or DMK) that want to openly or secretly suppress them in TN.

What is the way ahead? Find good youthful passionate leadership that are willing to fight the good fight long term. Focus on building up the party from the grassroots. Ignore all the பூச்சாண்டி business. Do not align with anyone who claims "TN is different". TN is Bharat. We have to fight this subterranean separatism.

Annamalai was making progress but he needed a lot more time. He was creating a genuine political movement, he invited youth to be active in politics and he had massive engagement.

I would have volunteered for this assignment too (I love building up from zero!) but I am neck deep in tech and Bharat needs deep tech. So not in this life time. To be very clear, I will state my political views (my right to free speech) but I will not be in active politics.

I hope all our educated citizens do engage in this political debate and express their opinions, but let us all do it RESPECTFULLY.

विद्या जीवन की ऐसी पूंजी है, जिससे बड़े से बड़े लक्ष्य को हासिल किया जा सकता है। विद्या हमें अज्ञानता के अंधकार से निकालकर सफलता और आत्मविश्वास की ओर ले जाती है।

विद्वान् प्रशस्यते लोके
विद्वान् सर्वत्र गौरवम्।

विद्यया लभते सर्वं
विद्या सर्वत्र पूज्यते॥

Let me make it simple for everyone point by point

1. Gold is imported from abroad & costs India huge foreign currency. Every gold purchase drains our national reserves. Modi ji has urged us to skip gold for just 1 year. The FOMO needs to pause for a while

2. Commuting daily burns massive amounts of petrol & diesel. WFH worked brilliantly during COVID, it can work again that's why Modi ji wants offices & companies to encourage WFH culture

3. India imports most of its oil from abroad at very high costs. Global oil prices have nearly doubled due to the US-Iran war. Every litre you save is money staying inside India.

4. Foreign vacations and abroad weddings send Indian money out of India. That's a hammer on our foreign exchange reserves that's why Modi ji has requested to pause foreign trips for just 1 year.

5. Every foreign product you buy sends money out of our country. Indian alternatives are now world class & easily available. Choosing Made in India creates jobs for fellow Indians.

🚨 Prime Minister Narendra Modi today:

- Stop buying gold.
- Bring back the work-from-home culture.
- Save petrol and diesel.
- Avoid foreign trips and destination weddings.
- Stop importing foreign products.

HUGE 🚨 PM Modi makes a special appeal amid global crisis.

"I would appeal to people not to buy gold for weddings for one year"

"Our country do not have big-big oil wells"

"Postpone travelling abroad for at least a year"

"Prioritise Work from Home"

"Reduce edible oil consumption for both economic health and personal health"

"Reduce petrol and diesel consumption by using metros. It will save foreign exchange"

"If we must use a car, then we should try to carpool. Use Electric Vehicles"

"Reduce the usage of chemical fertilisers by 50%. Adopt solar-powered irrigation pumps instead of diesel pumps in agriculture"

"Prioritise Made-in-India and locally manufactured products"

Sanskrit has >2000 verb roots (dhātus). But do you really need to learn them all?

I had Claude analyze 270 Sanskrit texts, and it found that with just the 192 most common dhātus, you can understand ~90% of verbs in literature.

Below are those 192 dhātus, ordered by frequency:

आज युगाब्द 5127, विक्रम संवत 2082, फाल्गुन शुक्ल अष्टमी के दिन नवनिर्मित सेवा तीर्थ में केंद्रीय कैबिनेट की प्रथम बैठक हुई। इसमें देश के लिए कई अभूतपूर्व निर्णय लिए गए।

इस दौरान, कैबिनेट ने ये संकल्प भी लिया कि स्वदेशी सोच, आधुनिक स्वरूप और 140 करोड़ देशवासियों के अनंत सामर्थ्य की बुनियाद पर बना सेवा तीर्थ राष्ट्रसेवा के कर्तव्य-यज्ञ को निरंतर आगे बढ़ाएगा।

इस राष्ट्रयज्ञ में हमारा मंत्र है - यद् भद्रं तन्न आ सुव॥

अर्थात्, जो कुछ शुभ और कल्याणकारी है, जो भी नए विचार हैं, वो हमें अनवरत प्राप्त होते रहें।

स्वामी विवेकानंद का मानना था कि युवा शक्ति ही राष्ट्र-निर्माण की सबसे सशक्त आधारशिला है। भारतीय युवा अपने जोश और जुनून से हर संकल्प को साकार कर सकते हैं।

हमारी महान संस्कृति और आध्यात्मिक विरासत अनगिनत हमलों की भी साक्षी रही है। यह देशवासियों की सामूहिक शक्ति ही है, जिसने हमारी सांस्कृतिक धरोहर को हमेशा अक्षुण्ण रखा है।
