Three things happened in my family over the past week.

My father (N. R. Narayana Murthy) received his 40th honorary doctorate, from the University of York. My mother (@SmtSudhaMurty) received her 24th, from IIT Dharwad. And my uncle, Shri Kulkarni (my mother's brother), was awarded the Royal Astronomical Society's Gold Medal in Astronomy.

The Gold Medal has been given since 1824, when Charles Babbage received the first one. It has since gone to Einstein, to Hubble, to Hawking, and to Chandrasekhar, who until now was the only Indian to have received it.

Forty, twenty-four, and a medal two centuries old. My contribution was the photographs.

Congratulations to all three. Still the best teachers I've had.

He did not say that “Israel is the fatherland and India is the motherland” in a general sense. Rather, his actual statement was: “Israel is their fatherland and India their motherland,” specifically in reference to that community.(3/4)

My son is learning Kannada alphabets and struggling a bit.

Made a simple progressive web app to practice hearing the sounds.

@_kashi_ks recommended Sarvam over Google Text To Speech.

Any of you native Kannada speakers want to have a look and let me know if it’s accurate for a beginner to learn and practice with?

Deeply saddened by the passing of Padma Shri Saalumarada Thimmakka, our beloved Mother of Trees, whose life embodied unconditional love for nature. She nurtured hundreds of trees with the affection of a mother, turning barren stretches into living forests. Her life was a shining example of how simplicity, compassion, and unwavering commitment can transform the world around us.

Whenever I visited Karnataka, Hon’ble Environment & Forest Minister Sri @eshwar_khandre ji and I often spoke about her extraordinary journey — her resilience, her devotion to environmental protection, and the inspiration she became for generations to come.

Thimmakka Amma proved that one person’s dedication can create a legacy far greater than monuments.
May her soul rest in peace. Her life and values will forever guide us in protecting and nurturing our forests.

In Andhra Pradesh, we saw those who swore to protect environment ruthlessly cut down trees, destroyed forests and enabled the smuggling of our vital ecological resources for selfish gain. And then, on the other end of the spectrum, we have a humble person whose life was a total dedication to nature - Saalumarada Thimmakka, the woman known simply as the "Mother of Trees."

From a small village in Karnataka, Thimmakka and her husband found their life's purpose when they couldn't have children. They chose to raise a family of green. With pure love and daily labour, they gifted the world a breathtaking canopy, planting and nurturing over 8,000 trees, including 375 majestic banyan trees. Her life was not about seeking power or wealth; it was a vow of unconditional love to Mother Earth.

Today, at 114 years young, this legendary protector of nature has finally left us. Her life is a powerful lesson in true public service. On behalf of JanaSena, I offer my deepest respects to the great Saalumarada Thimmakka.

We have lost our mother of Trees, but her spirit remains with us. She continues to inspire us all to work toward environmental conservation, to plant trees in our communities, and to become the responsible citizens our planet desperately needs.

[Sadhguru @SadhguruJV]

A personification of unwavering commitment & determination to leave the world a little better than she found it. Several generations will benefit from Saalumarada Thimmakka’s foresight and her invaluable gift to the planet. -Sg

What is E-415?

[Nalini Unagar @NalinisKitchen]

Dear Indians, your life has ZERO value.

FSSAI banned ORSL because it contains high sugar and does not comply with the WHO formula, as it is dangerous for health.

Then the ORSL company said, “Please, sir, we have ₹180 crore worth of stock. Please let us sell it.”

The court said, Okay, sell it.

So, this ₹180 crore stock of a big billionaire company has more value than the health of 140 crore Indians.

[Revant Himatsingka “Food Pharmer” @foodpharmer2]

Bad news. Fake ORS ban has been paused by the Delhi high court.

ORSL has been allowed to sell 180 crore of their stock first. ORSL sells at 45 rupees per pack, so basically they want to sell 4 crore (180/45) fake ORS packs.

These fake products have up to 10 times more sugar than real ORS, and can be dangerous for kids suffering from diarrhea.

I request all Indians to unite and support @dr_sivaranjani
in the fight against fake ORS.

Please share this across all platforms so that we can put public pressure to not have any fake ORS sold.

[The Better India @thebetterindia]

We Have Won! No one can use ‘ORS’ on their label unless it’s a WHO-recommended formula.

This is the story of Dr. Sivaranjani Santosh, a braveheart paediatrician from Hyderabad, who fought for 8 years against sugar-rich drinks falsely marketed as ORS.

Her persistence led to FSSAI’s landmark order, protecting children and patients from misleading claims.

“These drinks had 10x the sugar WHO recommends, worsening diarrhoea and complications in millions of kids,” she explains.

This victory is not just hers, but belongs to everyone who stood with her — doctors, advocates, parents, and citizens demanding truth in labeling.

Scroll down to see how her 8-year battle changed the game for public health and children across India.

What an Amazing Discovery!

Scientists have discovered that Ants, after collecting grains and seeds which they need to store for the winter, actually break them into halves before storing in their nests. This is because by breaking the seeds into half, it stops them from germinating despite the most perfect conditions.

But Scientists were stunned when they discovered that Coriander seeds stored in the Ant nest were always broken down into 4 pieces instead of 2 pieces.

After some lab research, Scientists discovered that a Coriander Seed is the only seed that can germinate even after being divided into two, but can not germinate after it’s divided into four parts.

So how do these tiny tiny creatures knew all this? And we Humans thought we are the ONLY intelligent creations of God.

Truth is We know very little & there's a lot to learn from every creature even if it’s so tiny.

God is just Great & Impartial!!
