[Raghunath AS 🇮🇳 @asraghunath]

The urban Naxal #ArundhatiRoy once wrote a lengthy article on women in the Maoist movement of the dense forests of Bastar, galmourising their armed violent activites. It was titled as Guns and Roses which was published in Outlook Magazine.
Years later, @AmitShah has scripted a strikingly different testament: Guns to Glamour! It is the real-life transformation story of the same women emerging from the shadow of the gun through the government’s surrender and rehabilitation framework—leaving behind a violent past and stepping towards a life of dignity, opportunity and hope.

From guns in the forests to glamour on a new stage, the contrast tells a story of transformation.

@King_Ikshvaku Driver must be suspended if stopped. This is unfair for all those who came on time.

No Indian actor, I repeat NO ONE, gives such instant slaps to his haters 🔥

They trolled him, saying he had no guts to make a movie without a star director but he came with a female director.

They trolled him saying he can't act without a beard but he came back with a clean shaven look as the Ticket character and made the whole of social media go crazy.

They trolled him saying he can't do anything beyond gangster movies but he came with one of his most challenging characters as Raavana and once again made everyone crazy.

This is why Yash is different from other actors. He's always in a different league, with a completely different mindset 🔥

If god makes you a Suraj Kumar, be a Suraj Kumar Chand and win titles wearing your sacred thread, not a hate filled @SurajKrBauddh

That Janeu might generate hate from incompetent nincompoops.

Sri Aurobindo on Mahatma Gandhi :

“when the Europeans say that he (Gandhi) is more Christian than many Christians and that he is "the Christ of the modern times" they are perfectly right. All his preaching is derived from Christianity, and though the form that is given to it is Indian, the essential spirit is Christian. He may not be exactly Christ, but at any rate he comes in continuation of the same movement.
He is largely influenced by Tolstoy and the Bible and by Jainism in his preachings; at any rate, more than by the Indian scriptures — the Upanishads or the Gita which he interprets in the light of his own ideas”

[Savitri Mumukshu - सावित्री मुमुक्षु @MumukshuSavitri]

Over 2000 years ago - Hindus in Kaivalya Upanishad Verse 20:

अणोरणीयानहमेव तद्वन्महानहं विश्वमहं विचित्रम् ।
पुरातनोऽहं पुरुषोऽहमीशो हिरण्मयोऽहं शिवरूपमस्मि ॥

“I am smaller than the minute atom; just as I am greater than the most immense.
I am the universe, wondrous and manifold.
I am the Ancient One; I am the Puruṣa; I am the Lord.
I am of golden radiance; I am of the form of Śiva .”

[Arjun Khemani @arjunkhemani]

.@naval: “The opportunities have never been more equal than now.

@elonmusk and @JeffBezos have the same iPhone you do. They don’t have some better version of an iPhone.

They’re eating food that might be marginally better than yours, but it’s basically the same.

You might even have a better diet than them. You probably have more time to go to the gym than them.

They’re not immortal, and they’re not going to be—most likely, not at this time scale.

So you have more youth than them. You have a lot of advantages over them.

The wealth gaps are actually much smaller than people think.

A lot of that is due to mass production, which comes from specialization, labor, and capitalism.

But it’s very easy to overlook that and agitate—because that gets you higher in the status hierarchy with other monkeys.

It makes you look like you’re fighting for noble causes and gives you status, which is really what people are craving these days.

They’re craving status, not money or wealth.

And status is a zero-sum game.

So it’s kind of an evil game to play because there have to be losers for every winner.

And the only way to win is by crushing somebody else down.”

In this "samvad" with GenZ & GenAlpha @DrMohanBhagwat
makes some striking statements with such clarity that you would be floored. However, to me the most impressive thing is his relaxed demeanor, easy going answers with smile. Take time out to listen. @iimunofficial - excellent questions.

[Prof. Krishnamurthy V Subramanian @SubramanianKri]

Śrī Rāma Rāma Rāmeti... Sahasra Nāma Tat Tulyam.
How can one name equal a thousand names?
The mathematical symbolism is elegant.
Ra's placement in Ya, Ra, La, Va = 2.
Ma's placement in Pa, Pha, Ba, Bha, Ma = 5.
Ra & Ma, not additive, but multiplicative in effect: 2 × 5 = 10.
Rāma Rāma Rāmeti = Chant Rama three times → 10³ = 1000.
The Vishnu Sahasranamam encoded in a single name. Beautiful mathematics that Prof. Kamakoti also described.
But even deeper philosophy.
The three utterances of Rama may be seen as aligning the waking, dreaming, and deep sleep states described in the Upanishads... integrating consciousness itself around the Divine.
Why Rama?
Because Ramayati iti Rama: He in whom all beings delight; He who is Bliss itself.
Not pleasure.
Ānanda: the very Sat-Chit-Ānanda (Existence-Consciousness-Bliss) that the Upanishads identify with Brahman.
The Vishnu Sahasranamam gives us a 1000 names because the finite mind approaches the Infinite through a thousand attributes.
The Srimad Bhagavatam reminds us that the One appears as the many without ever ceasing to be One.
The thousand names are the many. Rama is the One.
In Advaita, the thousand names belong to language. The one name points beyond language.
The thousand names educate the intellect. The one name transforms consciousness.
A metaphor: One can analyze the 1000 different rays coming into the room or marvel at the Sun itself that is the Source of those 1000 rays.
Perhaps that is why Adi Shankaracharya simply said:
"Geyam Gītā Nāma Sahasram."
Sometimes, the Infinite is not reached by adding more. It is realized by returning to the One.🙏

Let’s JCB together for a Better Bengaluru.

This August, we begin Freedom from Waste - a citywide mission to eliminate waste, restore public spaces and build lasting civic pride.

While GBA and its partner agencies clean our public spaces, we urge citizens to clean their vacant sites.

A cleaner Bengaluru is a shared responsibility.
