While at Art of Living, met Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Ji. We had an excellent discussion on various subjects, notably the work of Art of Living. His passion towards furthering societal good is noteworthy.

India has now attained criticality in a commercial, 500MW power producing, fast breeder nuclear reactor.
(We had experimental one before, but this is a big commercial one that can produce power.)
Criticality means reactor is running by itself without needing to keep re-igniting it. Breeder means it makes more fissile fuel than it uses.
Nobody wanted to give India such tech. Because these reactors can create nuclear fissile material. So India created the tech itself in spite of sanctions.
Only Russia has this tech (true commerical fast breeder reactor) running. US, UK, France say they have given up on this. China has one prototype based on Russian tech but it is not yet commercial.
India has refused to put its Fast Breeder Reactor program under international scrutiny. It is a big, big, no HUGE thing for India's energy independence.
But, as usual, most Indians won't know how big as we don't play up our achievements. I was recently amused seeing some posts by Gen-Z advising Indian govt to go for Thorium cycle etc in some condescending tone.
Because India has been on it quietly for sometime. And this reactor going critical now and commercial soon means it can sustain itself for infinity. This cuts India's imports of Uranium. And paves the way for Thorium based reactors as well. (Stage 3 of India's nuclear program, we just passed Stage 2 with PM's post).
Also, what PM didn't say is, this reactor can help generate some 100+kg of weapons grade Plutonium -with which India can make many warheads and expand nuclear stockpile if it wishes so.
But India will never do that, you know, as India is a very peaceful nation promoting world wide nuclear disarmament ;)
Hard to watch! Here is the footage of Noelia Castillo Ramos being removed from her loving home.
They broke down the door and took her away while her grandmother and mother begged and pleaded!
She was then gang r*ped by migrant teens at the “shelter” they took her to 😡
Anti-Brahmin hatred kills another Brahmin!
ALERT: Brahmin Pujari, returning from Mandir on Mahashivratri, stopped by Brahmin-hating Lala Kewat, slit his throat, stabbed his chest more than six times, in Sidhi, MP.
Locals say, Kewat family hated him for his devotion & Brahmin identity.

UGC बिल नोटिफिकेशन आने पर सामान्य वर्ग का यह हाल है सोच लो UGC बिल अगर आ गया तो सामान्य वर्ग के घर में घुसकर महिलाओं के साथ मारपीट हो सकता है।
Dipu Chandra Das worked at a factory in Bhaluka, Mymensingh. He was a poor laborer. One day, a Muslim coworker wanted to punish him over some trivial matter, so in the middle of a crowd he announced that Dipu had made derogatory remarks about the Prophet. That was enough. Frenzied followers of the Prophet pounced on Dipu like hyenas and began to tear him apart. Eventually the police rescued him and took him into custody—meaning Dipu was under police protection.
Dipu told the police what had happened, stated that he was innocent, that he had made no comment whatsoever about the Prophet, and that it was all a conspiracy by that coworker. The police did not go after the coworker. Many among the police harbor a fondness for jihad. Was it in the excess of this jihadist zeal that they threw Dipu back to those fanatics? Or did jihadist militants shove the police aside and take Dipu out of the station? They held a full-blown celebration—beating Dipu, hanging him, burning him—a jihadist festival.
Dipu Chandra Das was the sole breadwinner of his family. With his earnings, his disabled father, mother, wife, and child survived. What will happen to them now? Who will help the relatives? Who will bring the mad murderers to justice? Dipu’s family doesn’t even have the money to flee to India to escape the jihadists’ hands. The poor have no one. They have no country left, not even a religion left.
