Once you start noticing a receding hairline at the earliest stage, get castor oil and rosemary oil. Mix 15 drops of castor oil with 1 drop of rosemary oil in your palm, then massage it into your scalp consistently. It will save you from breaking the bank trying to restore your hairline later.

I've restored my hairline twice. My dad was already bald at an age younger than I am now, yet my hair is full and my hairline is sharp.

For a proper scalp massage tutorial, search for Austin Goh's scalp massage video on YouTube.

You're welcome.

Why would men chemically castrate themselves when they could read Hair Like a Fox by Danny Roddy, become beings of pure light through Ray Peat nutrition and use intelligent hair loss interventions like Aurabiōm peptide serum, Loxstar hair serum and red light therapy???

[The Old World Show @theoldworldshow]

This is one of my favorite books of all time, and one I recommend to everyone who asks for a recommendation whenever I get the chance

It paints a beautiful picture of the very different world that used to exist, one where greatness was still prized more highly than equality and equity, and so men did great things

They built magnificent homes, gorgeous palaces, and immense empires. New men built businesses the scale of which had never been seen, and the old elite pushed high culture to its greatest flowering. Those who were talented could and did rise, and those who were incompetent quickly lost it all and fell away

It was a world of consequences good and bad, of rewards for excellence and punishment for falling behind

It was a world of pride and hauteur, but also of public faith and policy rooted in a deep and abiding belief in Christianity

It was a world before tax policy punished the competent for the benefit of the incompetent, a world before the disastrous equality of the present

And in this book, Emmerson shows what that world looked like, good and bad, and how it functioned

Such is the best way to jump into remembering that a different world used to exist

Morning gyan: Permission to travel is always given by the @PMOIndia. Judges of the #SupremeCourt and high courts concerned forward a request to Dept of Justice, Ministry of Law. A travel itinerary is prepared, the financial implications (TA/DA), official protocol etc worked out. The Foreign Travel Order is then forwarded to the PM who okays it.
Some 18 years ago, the Manmohan Singh govt had cracked the whip and read out the Code of Conduct to judges of the Supreme Court and high courts to curb the practice of judges going abroad for conferences and seminars even when the court was in session and a handful of judges were always away.
But even then, I don’t remember a judge going abroad to attend a private sports tournament!
In order to curb this practice, the MMS government’s law minister, Hansraj Bharadwaj, forwarded a story done by me for @CNNnews18 to the CJI and expressed his unhappiness at the “bad press”. The law ministry also came up with a fresh list of protocols following the story. The CJI then unhappily used my story to write to the high courts concerned sharing the government’s concerns. Some fresh rules were laid out.
It was decided that there would be proportional representation of judges accepting the invite and only one judge would represent the court. The invite would only be accepted if it was by the judiciary/government of the host country. The number of days was curtailed to what was considered necessary. Judges would travel by the shortest route possible.

The kill joy story that led to these seminal changes was me accessing through RTI the FTO of judges of the SCs and high courts from the dept of Justice since the #SupremeCourtifIndia was not under the RTI.

Then CJI KG Balakrishnan opposed my RTI tooth and nail, accused Hansraj Bharadwaj and then Home minister of conspiring with the media against the judiciary (untrue completely) and finally after nine months of my relentless pursuit, released the FTOs.

The travel details were an eye opener. The biggest “traveller” was ex CJI YK Sabharwal. He was out of the country for 45 days (the entire summer vacation) on tax payer expense, travelled to the US, went to Disneyland, visited his brother, went to Montreal via Vancouver (!!!) before going to Paris and back. The conferences in end May and mid July were at Montreal and Paris. (Why YKS went to Vancouver is another story. IYKYK).
KGB went for a conference to Pretoria, South Africa. His route was Kochi (three day layover at his house), then South Africa where he visited the famous Kruger National Park but skipped going to the Victoria Falls (the PMO was frowning) and some other touristy spots.
A few years later, I chased the story again. The RTI s came in a jiffy. Foreign travels had reduced to 10 per cent of what it used to be. Bharadwaj called me a killjoy but was secretly happy.
I can go on! There are hundreds of FTOs lying around which I got under RTI that gives you an idea how the tax payers money is spent.
But never have I heard of so many judges going for a private event, sponsored by the very companies they are sitting in judgement over.

If you want a deeper understanding of your unconscious habits and how to break free from them, try this exercise daily.

Backwards Review Exercise

Rudolf Steiner, widely considered one of the greatest minds of the 20th century, recommended mentally reviewing the events of your day in reverse order, starting from the present moment and moving back to the beginning of the day.

At the end of the day, sit quietly and mentally go back through everything that happened. Try to remember conversations, reactions, emotions, movements, and small details as clearly as possible. Some people do it before sleep, others in the morning so they stay more awake during the exercise.

A useful way to do it is backwards. Start from the present moment and move step by step toward the beginning of the day. This requires more attention because the mind cannot rely on automatic memory flow.

One of the most interesting parts of the exercise is seeing how the mind reacts to certain experiences. Small events often stay in our thoughts for hours without us understanding why. Someone says something irritating, looks at us a certain way, or reacts unexpectedly, and the moment keeps replaying in the mind long afterward.

Later, while reviewing the day calmly, it becomes easier to see what actually caused the reaction.

Usually it is not only the event itself, but identification with some image, expectation, insecurity, or habit.

For example, imagine making a joke you personally find harmless, but the other person becomes offended. Even after apologizing, the interaction keeps replaying in your head. During the review you may suddenly realize the discomfort came from wanting approval or from disliking being misunderstood. Without reflection, these patterns usually remain unconscious.

This exercise slowly reveals how mechanical many reactions are. You begin noticing recurring emotional patterns, roles you play, and thoughts that repeat automatically. Some people discover they are constantly trying to appear intelligent, helpful, spiritual, funny, or important without realizing it. The moment that image is threatened, emotion appears immediately.

Neville Goddard later expanded on a similar idea through what he called revision.

While mentally replaying the day, if you come across an unpleasant event, you consciously reimagine it the way you would have preferred it to happen. Instead of reliving the event exactly as it occurred, you replace it in imagination with the desired version and fully experience it that way.

At first many people think revision means making reality only slightly better. But the idea is to imagine the experience exactly as you wanted it to happen, not just a small improvement of the original event.

The most difficult part of all these exercises is keeping attention from wandering. The mind naturally moves from one association to another automatically. You begin reviewing your day and suddenly find yourself thinking about something completely unrelated.

The practice makes it very clear how little control most people actually have over their own thinking.

With consistency, however, memory improves, concentration becomes stronger, and awareness of yourself deepens naturally.

A 70-year-old man was charged with attempted murder after he tried to drown a 21-year-old man on crutches at a residents-only lake in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, over a dispute about access to the lake.

According to a Hopkinton police report, Dana shouted at a group of young men that it was "time to go," referring to the group riding a jet ski on the lake

The group and Dana shout back and forth, with Dana eventually walking up to the group to confront them, according to officials

"Are you going to beat up a cripple?" one of Duffy's friends reportedly asked Dana.

"I don't care, I'll take a cripple." Dana responded, according to the report.

Speaking with NewsCenter 5, the victim, Matthew Duffy, said he feared for his life.

"I was so scared for my life because I can't fight back, I broke practically everything and this guy's on top of me under the water, I can't see what's going on, I can't fight back," Duffy said

Steven Dana was charged with an attempt to murder, two counts of strangulation/suffocation, and assault and battery on a disabled person.

[Electra @Electrarythm]

Spend around 10–30 minutes a day visualizing a version of yourself that you are deliberately trying to build. Do it when your mind is already calm, especially in the evening or just before sleep, because the mind accepts imagery more easily when it is not being pulled in different directions.

The basic idea is simple. The brain treats repeated internal experience as something important. When a certain kind of situation is lived again and again in imagination, with enough detail and emotional weight, it starts to lose its “imagined” quality and becomes something your mind recognizes as familiar territory.

And what becomes familiar stops feeling impossible.

Old patterns weaken in this process not because you fight them directly, but because you stop feeding them the same mental rehearsal. At the same time, new patterns begin to stabilize because they are being repeatedly experienced internally before they ever exist externally.

Start by settling your body. Slow breathing. Less tension in the face, shoulders, stomach. You are not trying to force anything, you are just lowering internal noise.

Then choose one specific scene. Not an abstract goal. A moment. Something you can step into mentally.

If it is health, do not think “I want to be healthy,” instead see yourself moving through a normal day with physical ease, walking without effort, breathing clearly, feeling your body light and responsive.

If it is confidence or success, see yourself in a real situation where you would normally hesitate, but now you speak without that hesitation, you are steady, direct, and things unfold without internal resistance.

If it is discipline, see yourself already inside the routine, doing the work without negotiation, as if it is simply what you do.

Always stay in first person. Through your own eyes.

What is directly in front of you. What is under your feet. The texture of the environment. The light in the space. The small details your attention would normally skip.

Then sound. The way voices actually enter the space. The rhythm of your breathing. Any background noise that belongs to that environment.

Then physical sensation. The weight of your body. Temperature on the skin. The sense of movement. The way you occupy space when you are not resisting yourself.

Emotionally, you are not trying to force excitement. You are allowing a quieter set of states to appear. Relief that things are simple. A sense of “this is already how I operate.” A quiet internal stability that does not need justification.

You are not building a fantasy. You are rehearsing familiarity.

At the end, stop adding detail and just remain in the general felt sense of it for a short moment, as if your mind has already accepted it as normal.

Let that feeling continue lightly as you move into the rest of your day.

Repeat it often enough that the scene stops feeling like something you are trying to reach, and starts feeling like something your mind already knows how to do.

If you are one of these people whose attention span is fried, make sure to try this exercise daily for 5 minutes. It was created by one of the most intelligent men of the 20th century, Rudolf Steiner.

Use an ordinary object (a pencil, clothe spin, clip, book, etc.) and think about it for five minutes every day. You take an object in front of you or in your mind and the first time you describe it to yourself aloud. You can also imagine yourself describing it to a blind person.

Use all your senses and make as many observations as you can in five minutes. Repeat this the next day, you will probably notice new details.

After a while you can ask questions about the object: "What can I do with it?", "What is it made of?", "Why this shape?", "What other shapes could it have?", "Where was it made?", "How did I get it?"," How are the raw materials mined?", etc. You will be able to answer some of these questions. If not, you can search for an answer in an encyclopedia or on the internet.

Your should be able to determine whether your thoughts are correct, otherwise your thoughts will wander. which is not the intention.

You can repeat what you did the day before and build on your previous thoughts. After some time you will have covered all possible questions, then do it one or two more times until you can really find no more issues to think about. Then follow the same procedure with another object.

When doing this exercise you may notice that your thinking gets clearer and sharper, and that your perception, concentration and objectivity increase. Also, your interest grows.

The difficulty of the exercise is that your mind wanders. The challenge is to be able to think about the object for five minutes, but you will find that your mind wanders to something else very easily, that your thoughts are associative and work automatically. E.g. you think of a pencil and suddenly you see in your mind your grandma with a pencil in her hand, grandma has a budgerigar and suddenly you are thinking about the whistling of this bird. Interrupt such thoughts: you wanted to think about the pencil.

The exercise is called control of the mind. The example just given shows that often there is no control over our thinking. We are thought, our thinking is associative and automatic. We believe that we think, but our thinking is often not focused.

Make sure that you do the exercise every day. You can choose a fixed time. Choose a time when you are awake and clear-headed, so not after dinner, but for example before or after breakfast or at 8 o'clock at night. You can also do it while waiting for the train, in a spare moment. Doing the exercise with two or three objects should be sufficient.
