India is the home of spiritual devotion.
Kannada BhaktiGeethe (and Bengali), is one of the purest repositories of devotion.

@sialmirzagoraya @amaanbali@PunYaab Not sure if this fits but if you look at the protesting farmers, most seem to be in the senior to super senior age bracket? Current fertility rates could mean a few decades from now a protest like this may not demographically materialize. At some point, dedicate an episode to it
@Jhatkalover What could be worse is Anupam Kher as farm union leader and Kangana as a grassroots reporter trying to get to the truth amidst sinister control over the media by Amitabh as Agri Minister.
Coke studio 2020 is here. A great platform no doubt, but I see a lot of fatigue and mediocrity build up over the years.
Less is more.

@lasaniayunus If you notice, he only talks to pea-cocks, not pea-hens. Because the hen may not like his cockiness, and may want to talk back - that's a mortal threat for most cocks
Today, we see something similar when Modi fans pounce on the Arabian Prophet, when something happens in France.
I assure you, none of these guys have made even a preliminary inquiry into the historical person they're so fond of denigrating.
Wrong by principle. It's goondasim.
If you want to say 1 bad thing about someone or a group of people, a religion or a country, first learn enough to say 1,000 good things. Earn the right to criticise
- An old teacher of mine. When a member of audience kept haggling him about the 'caste system' (was off topic)
Osho was so open that many of his sessions touched upon the lives of Christ and Muhammad (but not in the form that Abrahamics use - too focused on the text).
His approach parallels that of the learned scholar kings of Kerala and Tamilnadu, when they received the first Muslims
Very few Hindus know about the Ashtavakra Gita.
And fewer still know that one the best expositions of the Ashtavakra Gita was by Osho.
Osho, more than any other teacher, was well versed with all dharmic panths. He taught from all 4.

And lest we forget, Acharya Rajneesh was born in a Jain family.
Jainas have produced, in my opinion, the finest scholars, thinkers and philosophers in the subcontinent - it is a pity that their immense culture and contribution is being buried under the heap of bad politics
Uighurs forced to eat pork as China expands Xinjiang pig farms.
China is violating Human Rights, and persecuting Uighurs, putting them into detention camps, but world is watching silently.

This Bill is going to transform farmers lives for better in many ways, I understand the anxiousness and effect of many rumours but I am certain government will address all doubts, please be patient. I am with my farmers and people of Punjab hold special place in my heart (cont)
If they hadn't come out in support, you'd be saying "Look at those opportunists, didn't stand up when in need"
Honestly, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Due to COVID situation, punjabi singers had a dry run, now they are using farmers theme to make songs and fight for survival like politicians, who are using them as mediums to get votes and popular. I think except farmers , rest everyone is encashing the situation.
