Lord Shiva granted her wish, explaining that since no single man could possess all those traits, she would marry five different men.

[Ananth M Mahadevan @ananth_murali]

There is a story in the Mahabharata where a single man cannot possess all noble qualities. That's why Draupadi married 5 men.

[Ananth M Mahadevan @ananth_murali]

In her previous birth, Draupadi was an ascetic maiden who performed severe penance to please Lord Shiva. When granted a boon, she repeatedly asked five times for a husband possessing all noble qualities.

Everybody is talking about the rise in price of petrol and LPG but nobody is talking about the rise in price of a water can. A 20 L water can used to cost ₹85 in 2021. Now it costs ₹110, an increase of ₹25 per 20 L can.

Highlights video of Vaibhav Suryavanshi's innings will be dot balls, 1s and 2s.

Same thing happens in basketball also, where as soon as a team scores a basket, they retreat back to their corner and then start defending.

[Ananth M Mahadevan @ananth_murali]

Almost all the teams in football seem to chaperone the opposing team's football in their D corner and then start doing the defending. Why can't they defend when the player starts bringing the ball towards them will before the D?

In general I observe a lot of people being like this.

[Ananth M Mahadevan @ananth_murali]

I was recently at my son's dance competition and at the hall, there were lots of people who were just getting up, going out, and then coming back in, just constant movement. Not sure why but they were very restless. Is it because of d coffee/samosa that were being served outside?

Very strange that these models were trained on data that is publicly available, systems that are mostly open-source, but in spite of all this the end product is closed to the world!!

This is big: all access to Mythos and Fable AI models disabled for everyone outside America.

First thoughts:

1. Technology is the ultimate weapon. National sovereignty, national security, all of it is now about technology.

2. Globalization is dead and Bharat must find her own way ahead.

We must keep these two ideas in mind.

What can our government do right now? Ensure that orgs in India embrace smaller models, both Indian and Chinese open source ones. With a bit of effort, we can make them work. Anyway, why pay money to people who don't even want to sell to you?

We must deepen our R&D. Sarvam has been on it and we have been on it but remember that the latest models cost not only huge GPU budgets to train, the GPUs themselves are restricted. So we can't afford the scale of money (of the order of $100+ billion to even get in the game!) and even if we could come up with the money, we can't get all the GPUs. I would not like to ask the government to fund tens of billions of dollars on this anyway - the money has far better uses.

Zoho has been pursuing alternative R&D approaches that are far, far less expensive but by its nature cutting edge R&D takes time and we are patient. I am confident we will get there.

Any remaining people in India who have delusions about globalization should wake up now.

@adithya Even though the system is supposed to be patriarchal, in terms of day-to-day affairs, I feel it's very much matriarchal. Women come together for occasions as simple as selecting saris or navaratri. Feminine is inclusive and so they bring entire family together

If the US wields so much power in global geo politics, I believe organisations such as the UN, NATO, G-20, BRICS should also have voting rights in the US elections.

In a world that loves quick wins, Supriya is a reminder that decades of steady public service can move mountains.

She’s been named a UNEP “Champion of the Earth” (2025), the UN’s highest environmental honour.

And what I admire most is the consistency: long before plastic bans became fashionable, she was already pushing action at the district level in the Nilgiris. (And I have a soft corner for the Nilgiris having spent my schooldays there)

That, in my view, is the real definition of leadership: quiet clarity, stubborn persistence, and outcomes that outlast headlines.

Bureaucrats like Supriya refuse the comfort of caution. They choose long-term transformation over short-term safety and by making this choice, set global standards for public service.

She’s my #MondayMotivation

Whatever life may throw at us, using it as a stepping stone rather than an obstacle is the only way to find profundity and success in life. This courageous young man and his intensity for the game epitomizes that. My best wishes and blessings to Surya. -Sg #IshaGramotsavam

எந்த ஒரு வசதியும் இல்லாமல் எந்த ஒரு பயிற்சியும் இல்லாமலேயே இவ்வளவு சாகசங்களை செய்யும் இந்த சிறுவர்களை நன்றாக பயிற்சி கொடுத்தால் இந்தியா ஒலிம்பிக்கில் பல தங்க பதக்கங்களை வெல்லும் என்பதில் மாற்றுக் கருத்து இல்லை. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[Sahana Singh @singhsahana]

I had always been eager to know about the Isha model of education. I wondered what Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev was doing differently from the traditional models I’m familiar with. My chance came in December 2024 when I was invited to Coimbatore to speak at the Arise Awake Assert conclave. After the event, I headed to Isha Yoga Centre to spend two days. (1)

@TataAIGMotor @TataAIG3 @TATAAIGIndia - bad experience with purchasing motor insurance. It has been more than a week since I purchased my insurance policy and i still have not received a copy. It is still "under process". All agents say the same thing: "Sir, you will get it tmrw"

The Indian passport application/renewal process is so good. The online application process is smooth, police came for verification next day with a tab, and I received my passport 4 days later. Kudos @rpochennai . I wonder what the turn around time for tatkal applications are?

I am an engineer from IIT Delhi. But more than any degree, what is needed in life is critical thinking, scientific temper and a curious mind.

I had made a list of experiments I want to do with my daughters to inculcate the same. Sharing it with you. A 🧵
