Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
The EU- Pakistan joint communiqué issued after Kaja Kallas’ visit to Pakistan contains the following paragraph:
“The Pakistan side briefed on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir. The EU side briefed on Russia’s war against Ukraine. Both sides expressed support to peaceful resolution of conflicts through dialogue and diplomacy, in accordance with the principles of the UN Charter.”
This paragraph has many very objectionable elements.
By accepting this language in the text the EU accepts that Jammu and Kashmir is an international issue that can legitimately figure in a joint statement between Pakistan and a third party.
The implication is that Jammu and Kashmir remains an unsettled issue territorially.
India’s clear position is that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India.
Worse, an equivalence between Ukraine and J& K is established.
If Pakistan briefs Kaja Kallas on the Kashmir issue, she briefs Pakistan on the Ukraine issue.
The EU is also terming J&K as a conflict, which is Pakistan’s formulation.
The EU is also accepting that the J& K conflict should be resolved in accordance with the principles of the UN Charter.
Even the Chinese formulation contains a reference to bilateral agreements between India and Pakistan.
By bracketing J&K and Ukraine, Kaja Kallas willingly have up that option and played Pakistan’s game.
We should reject this para strongly and state our position on J& K firmly.
Marco Rubio did not land in New Delhi to talk friendship. He came with a checklist.
Buy American oil. Buy Venezuelan oil routed through US channels. Pay the premium. Do not ask questions.
Washington has kept the Strait of Hormuz in a slow boil deliberately. Russian refineries sit under sanctions. The squeeze on global energy supply is not an accident. It is architecture. Manufactured scarcity to make US crude the only viable option at whatever price Washington decides to name. India is the target market.
The mediation offer on Pakistan is another arm of the same agenda. The US wants to position itself as the indispensable middleman before any India Pakistan flashpoint escalates. What that really means is this: India must inform Washington before taking any unilateral defensive action. India must seek American approval before responding to aggression on its own soil. That is not mediation. That is a leash dressed up as diplomacy.
And then there is the immigration lever. Hundreds of thousands of Indians are embedded in the American economy, in tech, in medicine, in finance. Washington knows this. Rubio knows this. The visa threat is the silent weapon sitting in the corner of every room where these conversations happen.
The opening stop at Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata was optics. It was a signal about values and about who controls the moral framing of this visit. The agenda was set before the plane touched down.
India has navigated far more sophisticated pressure than this. The answer must be simple and non negotiable. Strategic autonomy is not a talking point. It is the policy. India does not pre-inform. India does not pre-seek permission. India does not buy overpriced oil because Washington engineered a shortage to make the math work.
Rubio came with a list. India should hand it back unsigned.
In defense of Indian 🇮🇳 democracy!
During Prime Minister Narendra Modi most successful visit to Norway a minor incident happened. A Norwegian journalist demanded that the prime minister starts holding press conferences. She claimed that Indian democracy is in bad shape.
May be its time to pause? May be its time to be a bit curious to the world’s largest democracy?
Two weeks ago five Indian states and territories held elections. The turn out in the battlefield state of West Bengal was 94%. In the last local election in Norway it was 62%, in many European local elections turn out is below 50%. Can voting in massive numbers be a signal Indians trust their democratic process?
In the same election BJP won big in Assam and West Bengal. It lost even bigger in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Can this diversity be a signal that Indian democracy is reflecting the will of the people?
The journalist referred to a democracy ranking putting India at 157 in the world, behind many dictatorships and deeply troubled states. When a ranking is so obviously contrary to common sense, why not ask critical questions to those making the ranking rather than demand that leaders shall comment on nonsense? I recommend Salvatore Babones book “Dharma democracy”. The book debunks convincingly the flawed methodology of these rankings.
It was referred to a ranking claiming it’s very dangerous to be a journalist in India. Reality is that it is more dangerous to be journalist in the US and far more dangerous in the vast majority of other nations in the world.
Let’s be real. India is not perfect. Of course there are incidents. India has a population the size of North America, South America and Europe combined. But India is much more peaceful than Europe or the Americas. That’s remarkable - given the ethnic, language and religious diversity of India and the many development challenges.
Unless we consider democracy a form of government only suited for some very small, peaceful and homogeneous Western European nations, may be we should commend Indian democracy?
India is the only major former UK colony which became and has remained a democracy. Its sometimes claimed that the Brits taught India democracy. If that was the case why isn’t Myanmar or Pakistan or the Gulf kingdoms democracies??? Reality is that Indian democracy is both homegrown and extraordinary successful.

Isn’t it cute that Rahul Gandhi, who was busy creating fake propaganda around Great Nicobar project until yesterday , suddenly reaches Muscat and was pictured entering Caffe Farah on Azaiba Beach in Muscat. BTW, in between he had also raised Ladakh issue. Loyal foot soldier hai bhai apna.
Curiously, the cafe he visited and also its sister concern Fanajeen are operated by Al Zaman Hospitality LLC, a subsidiary of the Al Zaman Group of Companies, an Omani single family office headquartered in Muscat.
This cafe is situated in the region which has high diplomatic footfall and which is not much on tourist circuit.
The principals of the group are Mohammed Khasru Zaman and his son Khalid Mohammed Zaman. And this group has an interesting China linkage as well. Khalid Zaman sits on the board of BlueFive Capital, a Gulf alternative investment platform co-founded in late 2024 with offices in London, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Bahrain, Muscat, Singapore and Beijing. Al Zaman Group is a founding institutional partner, and Khalid Zaman is Vice Chairman of BlueFive Leasing. The critical co-board member is Fang Fenglei, Chairman of Hopu Investments, former Chairman of Goldman Sachs Gaohua, son of a People’s Liberation Army officer, and personal friend of CPC Vice President Wang Qishan. Fang has overseen the IPOs of China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, PetroChina and Sinopec, and is publicly described as China’s most politically connected investment bankers.
Nice, very nice… not saying they he has any linkage with PLA but one gotta be extra careful while choosing locations etc as there are no coincidences in life.
Pata nahi kyon iske sath aise hota hai- that cafe is not a Michelin star restaurant nor something very famous- it just happens to be a spot visited by those in diplomatic circuit only

The reporting on OpenAI and Sam Altman that I've been working on for the past year and a half, for @NewYorker, with @andrewmarantz: https://t.co/HEPHN4E54P
Why Hindus have 33 crore gods?
No wonder we look confused.
Which god to pray?
Which idol to choose?
Which day to fast?
Which ritual to follow?
That is the story many were taught.
That India is irrational.
That Hindus are superstitious.
That our ancestors worshipped randomness.
A civilization of chaos.
Nice story.
Fake story.
Let me break it.
There is no original Vedic claim of 33 crore gods.
The phrase is 33 Koti Devatas.
And primarily 'Koti' in Sanskrit means.
Type.
Class.
Category.
Order.
So the real meaning is:
33 classes of Devas.
Not 330 million gods.
Now watch the architecture.
The 33.
8 Vasus
Cosmic building blocks of existence.
Traditionally linked to:
Prithvi = Earth
Jala = Water
Agni = Fire
Vayu = Air
Akash = Space
Surya = Sunlight
Chandra = Moonlight
Druva = Radiance
Nature itself.
11 Rudras
Forces of life within the human system.
Many traditions list them as:
Kapali = Ego destroyer
Pingala = Vital energy
Bhima = Fearless strength
Virupaksha = All seeing vision
Vilohita = Red vitality
Shasta = Divine guide
Ajaikapada = Formless pillar
Ahirbudhnya = Deep guardian
Shambhu = Auspicious peace
Chanda = Fierce force
Bhava = Source of life
12 Adityas
Not random sky gods.
These were the twelve solar principles.
Twelve faces of time.
Twelve rhythms of the year.
Dhata = Creator, order
Aryama = Honor, nobility
Mitra = Friendship, harmony
Varuna = Law, waters
Indra = Power, victory
Vivasvan = Radiance, fire
Tvashtha = Craft, design
Vishnu = Expansion, pervasion
Amshuman = Rays, portion
Bhaga = Fortune, prosperity
Pusha = Nourishment, growth
Parjanya = Rain, fertility
Then Prajapati
Creation.
Generation.
Continuity of life.
Now count.
8 + 11 + 12 + 1 + 1 = 33
This is systems design.
Not superstition.
Now the bigger shock.
We never had a true English concept of “God.”
The word used was Deva.
From Sanskrit root Div.
To shine.
To illumine.
To radiate.
A Deva is not equal to the Abrahamic idea of one external ruler.
A Deva can mean:
Energy.
Intelligence.
Natural principle.
Conscious force.
Cosmic function.
That is why translation damaged understanding.
Eg. Agni is not “fire god.”
Agni is:
Fire in nature.
Fire in digestion.
Fire in transformation.
Fire in sacrifice.
Fire of will.
One symbol.
Five layers
What were ancestors really doing?
They encoded science into story.
Ecology into ritual.
Psychology into symbolism.
Astronomy into calendars.
Energy into mantra.
Sustainability into reverence.
When you worship river,
you don’t pollute it.
When you worship tree,
you don’t cut it blindly.
When you worship fire,
you respect energy.
Smart civilization move.
Even the scriptures say One Reality.
Rigveda:
Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti
Truth is One.
Wise people call it by many names.
So no.
We were never a people of 33 crore competing gods.
We were a civilization mapping one reality through many forces.
They called us confused.
Because if you understand this system,
you start asking who really misunderstood whom.
Sushant, listen up and pay attention, I’ll try to do it slowly so you can keep up.
Below is the Baudhāyana Śulba Sūtra 1.9, (sometimes numbered 1.12):
dīrghasyākṣaṇayā rajjuḥ pārśvamānī tiryaṅmānī ca yat pṛthagbhūte kurutastadubhayāṅ karoti.
Literally: “The rope [stretched] along the diagonal of an oblong produces [an area] which the lateral side and the horizontal side make together.”
In even more plain terms: the square on the diagonal equals the sum of the squares on the two sides.
That’s called the Pythagorean theorem today. A generalized declaration, not empirical observation of triplets in the wild. Before Christ. A late addendum to the Vedas.
And to say that’s the most profound mathematical insight would make the incredibly stupid.
The Śulba Sūtras are a drop in the ocean. But even just that talks about Pythagorean triples (3,4,5), (5,12,13), (8,15,17), (7,24,25), (12,35,37); √2 ≈ 1 + 1/3 + 1/(3·4) − 1/(3·4·34) accurate to 5 decimals, explicitly marked saviśeṣa (“with remainder”) implying incommensurability; area-preserving transformations between square, rectangle, and circle (early squaring-the-circle); similarity and quadratic area-scaling via shape-preserving altar enlargements; and a working geometric toolkit :all encoded as terse cord-and-stake construction recipes for Vedic fire altars.
For my ancestors, the qualified entity you falsely imply to be science wasn’t the end, it was simply “a” means of manipulating material reality in search of the end, which was the divine.
Something they used and developed everyday, but never confused that it was a tool to be used in service of God and Humanity, not to be used as a propaganda cudgel to beat my political opponents with.
You, Sushant, would sell your parents (and the pathetic excuse you call a soul) out for paid trip to a INC Safehouse in Istanbul, don’t deign to think you know anything about math or my faith to be commenting about it.
We aren’t blue haired Yale students, and definitely don’t tell @thecaravanindia how to design the best front page illustrations that make Modi aura-maxx-mogg(did I use it right my young frens?) more than anything we can make online?
Stay in your lane.
Hindu philosophy is the most ancient and profound systems of thought in the world And it's got so much depth that it can keep you exploring forever.
But don’t worry let me break it down for you in short Hindu philosophy is built on some fundamental concepts of vedas that guide the thoughts.
Here are the core concepts that shaped Hindu Philosophical thoughts..
ParaBrahman (Supreme Conciousness)..
Maya (Illusion)..
Avidya (Ignorance)..
Dhyana (Meditation)..
Karma & Punarjanma..
Prana Shakti (Life force)..
Atman-Paramatma (self conciousness)..
Moksha (Liberation)..
Gyana (Knowledge)..
Bhakti (devotion)..
Dharma (Rightousness)..
OM and more!
These concepts serve as the pillars upon which Hindu philosophical systems (darshanas) are built Hindu philosophy is divided into six major thoughts Called the Āstika Darśanas (orthodox).
These were developed by various ancient rishis and each one approaches The Truth in its unique way Nyāya (Logic and Reasoning)..
Vaiśeṣika (Atomic Theory and Material World)..
Sāṃkhya (Dualism – Consciousness vs. Matter)..
Yoga..
Mīmāṁsā (Ritualistic Vedic Tradition)..
Vedanta as mentioned in the post Btw there are also 3 other nastika or non-orthodox thoughts which are now recognized as religions (Charvaka..Jainism..Buddhism) Each darśana recognizes different methods to attain valid knowledge..
Those six pramāṇas are also mentioned in the post All these systems are interconnected The Upanishads laid the foundation for philosophical thought, which evolved into the different darśanas Some focused on logical analysis (Nyāya, Vaiśeṣika), some on dualism (Sāṃkhya, Yoga), some on rituals (Mīmāṁsā), and some on self-realization (Vedānta) n more! .
I am a Web3 Ambassador at World Liberty Financial.
There are 12 of us on the team page. 4 are named Trump. 3 are named Witkoff. The page calls us "the passionate minds shaping the future of finance."
600,000 wallets bought our memecoin. They lost $3.87 billion. The family collected $350 million in trading fees. It launched 3 days before the inauguration. 80% of the supply went to CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC. I did not choose the names. I designed the allocation, the vesting, the timing, and the distance between the product and the President.
The distance is my best work.
I am the reason these events are unrelated.
World Liberty Financial sends 75 cents of every dollar to DT Marks DEFI LLC. That is the family entity. Zero capital contributed. Zero liability assumed. I wrote this into the Gold Paper. Page 14. The lawyers bound it in white leather. The binding cost more than the due diligence.
Justin Sun invested $75 million. He was facing SEC fraud charges. The SEC dropped the case. He is now our advisor. These events are unrelated.
Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty to federal money laundering violations. He received a presidential pardon. The SEC dropped its lawsuit against his exchange the same week we listed our stablecoin. Then the exchange settled a $2 billion deal entirely in that stablecoin. These events are unrelated.
Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed of BitMEX pleaded guilty to Bank Secrecy Act violations. All 3 received presidential pardons. Then the company itself was pardoned. $100 million in fines. Gone. An American first. These events are unrelated.
Sheikh Tahnoun of Abu Dhabi paid $500 million for a 49% stake that was never publicly disclosed. Then the administration approved semiconductor exports to his companies over national security objections. These events are unrelated.
Everything is unrelated. I track the unrelatedness on a dashboard I built. The dashboard has 7 columns now. I am proud of the dashboard.
On May 22nd, 220 people paid a combined $148 million to eat dinner with the America First president. Over half were foreign nationals. Justin Sun paid $18.5 million for the first seat. He visited the Executive Office Building the day before. I designed the seating chart. I put it on the Investor Confidence page. That page is doing well.
The team page lists 3 Witkoffs. All 3 are Co-Founders.
Steven Witkoff is the President's Middle East envoy. He testified as a character witness at the President's fraud trial.
His son Zach runs the crypto operation. His son Alex is also a Co-Founder. I have not been told what Alex co-founded.
The father runs the diplomacy. The sons run the platform. The family runs both. That is organizational efficiency.
Barron is 19. His title is Web3 Ambassador. The same as mine. Donald Jr. called the conflicts of interest "complete nonsense." Eric launched a Bitcoin mining company called American Bitcoin. America First. The mining partner is Hut 8. Hut 8 was founded in Canada. America First means the name.
On March 6th, the President signed Executive Order 14233 creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. The order directs the government to hold Bitcoin. The President's family holds billions in Bitcoin. The executive order appreciates the President's assets by presidential decree. I did not write the executive order. I made sure it looked unrelated to the portfolio.
Trump Media put $2 billion of Bitcoin on its balance sheet. The ticker symbol is DJT. His initials. The press secretary said it is absurd to insinuate the President profits off the presidency. Forbes calculated his crypto holdings exceed the combined value of Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower. I would call that absurd too. That is my job.
600,000 wallets bought in. 1 of them asked why she could not withdraw her funds. I told her the protocol was experiencing dynamic market conditions. She asked what that meant. I sent her the Gold Paper. She said she had read the Gold Paper. I muted her channel. Dynamic means the conditions change. The condition that changed was her access.
A congressman called us the world's most corrupt crypto startup operation. We put it on a coffee mug. Ironic merchandise. $45. The revenue split on the mug is also 75/25.
My own tokens vest on a different schedule. I wrote that schedule. That is not in the Gold Paper.
The memecoin funds the family. The family funds the platform. The platform funds the stablecoin. The stablecoin funds the deals. The deals require the pardons. The pardons free the partners. The partners fund the platform. The President signs the executive orders. The executive orders inflate the assets. The assets fund the family.
I am the reason these events are unrelated.
Mount Athos, an autonomous monastic region in Greece, enforces a strict Avaton (prohibition) that bans women and even female animals (except cats to curb mice, lol) from entering the entire peninsula. This rule has been in place for over 1,000 years to maintain monastic celibacy and honor the Virgin Mary. Violating this law can result in legal penalties, including imprisonment. Access is restricted to men with a specific permit.
The prohibition extends 500 meters (approx. 1,640 feet) from the coastline. Even tourist boats are restricted to maintaining this distance.
The ban is upheld by the Greek Parliament and is recognized within the European Union for spiritual and religious reasons. Attempting to enter can lead to a prison sentence of two months to one year.
According to Orthodox tradition, the peninsula is dedicated to the Virgin Mary ("The Garden of the Theotokos"), who is considered the only woman allowed on the mountain.
One of the traditions that has been handed down regarding this is that the Virgin Mary was supposedly blown off course when she was trying to sail to Cyprus and landed on Mount Athos. And she liked it so much that she prayed to her son that she should be given it as her own and he agreed. It is still called 'the garden of the mother of God', dedicated to her glory, and she alone represents her sex on Mount Athos.
Another tradition has it that centuries ago, after several monks reported visions of the Virgin Mary, following whom it was decided that the Athos monks should devote themselves only to her, and that no other woman should be allowed lest they may outshine her.
I am waiting for @AKanisetti (who blocked me recently) to write articles on this too and call the Virgin Mary as controversial because there is a small mountainous peninsula where she won’t allow other women to enter.
Please reshare a lot. We need women to enter Athos mountain too. European Union should intervene in this affair asap and our judiciary should enforce our constitutional morality on the Greek Orthodox Church. @halleyji@infinitchy@jsaideepak@labstamil

Just expose, ridicule, and saturate the world with their depravity. Your job is not to reform Islam. Your job, if any, is to caution others.
If you could travel back to 2015 -- let alone 2005 -- and explain that a founding leader of Al Qaeda in Syria will be made President with the help of the US and Israel, then warmly welcomed in the WH and western capitals, you'd be called a crazy anti-west conspiracy theorist.
What a brilliant expose of Dhruv Rathee's claims that Bhagwan Ram ate meat with authentic proofs from the Ramayan by this young boy!
He looks like a factory-reset version of Dhruv Rathee, making him taste his own medicines🔥
More power to him, he should create more content like this! 🙌
