धर्मो रक्षति रक्षितः ।। शीलम् परम् भूषणम्।

[Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) @md_deepesh]

Eklavya never sat in Dronacharya's classroom.
Not for a day.
No lectures.
No notes.
No certificate.

He learned alone.
In the forest.
With a clay statue as his teacher.

And then something dangerous happened.
He became better than Arjuna.

The system noticed.
Not to reward him.
To stop him.

Dronacharya asked for his thumb.
Eklavya gave it.
Just like that.

His gift survived.
His future did not.

Because that is what institutions often do.
They demand payment.
Even when they gave you nothing.

That story is over 3,000 years old.
Or maybe it isn't.

Because we still do the same thing.
Only the thumb has changed.
Today it is called time.

Around 25,000 hours.
That is what an average child gives to school and college.

Twenty-five thousand hours.
One life.
One childhood.
One youth.

No child wakes up dreaming about textbooks.
No teenager fantasizes about examinations.

They do it because the system says so.

Study.
Revise.
Repeat.
Obey.
Perform.
Compete.

Question nothing.
Challenge no one.

25,000 hours disappear.

Not for curiosity.
Not for mastery.
Not for self-discovery.

For a certificate.

A piece of paper that claims to measure human worth.

And what does it promise?
A career.
A stable life.
A secure future.

And what does it often deliver?
Unemployment.
Underemployment.
Or something worse.
Employment without meaning.

Eklavya lost one thumb.
Our children lose 25,000 hours.

Most never discover their gift at all.

And after all that time...
Who do they become?

Sometimes someone even their own parents no longer recognize.

Because the system does not teach collaboration.
It teaches competition.

Score higher than the boy beside you.
He is not your friend.
He is your rival.

Beat him.
Or be beaten.

That lesson begins early.
Very early.

Independent thought?
Punished.

Curiosity?
Standardized.

Creativity?
Timed.

Collaboration?
Called cheating.

Millions graduate every year.
The factory keeps running.
Producing compliance at industrial scale.

The institution extracts everything.
Time.
Energy.
Money.
Confidence.
Imagination.
Wonder.

And what comes back?
A corrupt bureaucracy.
A strained healthcare system.
A crumbling public infrastructure.
A society chasing wealth while starving for wisdom.

Families drifting apart.
Communities losing empathy.

Yet the race continues.
More marks.
More ranks.
More certificates.
More approval.

The Mahabharata remembered Eklavya as a tragedy.
We studied the story.

Memorized it.
Passed the exam.

Then built an entire education system around it.
And called it progress.

[🇮🇳 S S Rana⚓🚢 @pixshail]

Shameful!

[Tenzing Lamsang @TenzingLamsang]

This gets worse.

So not only did the US Navy fire two missiles and kill three Indian sailors they refused to rescue the 24 Indian crew despite saying they are on fire, the vessel is sinking and that they are an all Indian crew.

The Omanis rescued them.

[Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) @md_deepesh]

What is the point of Modi completing 4,399 days?
He is still an American puppet.
Every decision is scripted.
Every move is approved.

At least that's what the experts tell us.
Every week.
Every election.
Every foreign visit.

So let's study this puppet carefully.
Because he is a fascinating puppet.

America sanctioned countries for buying the S-400.
China bought it.
Got sanctioned.

Modi bought it too.
Got the missiles.

Kept the sanctions away.
The puppet forgot to panic.
And kept smiling.

America warned India about Russian oil.
America hinted at consequences.

India listened respectfully.
Then increased Russian oil imports from 2.5% to 36%.

That's not a puppet.
That's a customer ignoring sales advice.

The UN voted against Russia.
Again.
And again.
And again.
141 Countries voted against Russia.

India abstained.
Again.
And again.
And again.

What a way to please his Master.

Then there is BRICS.
The club Washington loves to hate.

The puppet sat on the table.
Strengthened it.

And now chairs it.
Excellent puppetry.

The dollar dominates global trade.
The puppet started signing local currency arrangements.

Rupees here.
Rupees there.
Less dependency everywhere.

The master must be very proud.

Iran was sanctioned.
Restricted.
Untouchable.

Modi signed deals anyway.
Built Chabahar.
Operated Chabahar.

And somehow got exemptions.
The puppet made the puppeteer negotiate.
Strange arrangement.

Then came the G20.
The African Union sat outside.
For decades.

Modi pulled up a chair.
One move.
History changed.

Nobody checked with the puppet master.

India spent decades buying western approved weapons.
Dependence was the policy.

In 2014, defence exports were ₹686 crore.
A decade later they crossed ₹21,000 crore.
A 174% Increasr.

The puppet became an arms exporter.
That's intersting Career growth for Western puppet.

Then Modi started calling global institutions outdated.
The UN Security Council.
The WTO.
Structures the West helped shape.

The puppet was now reviewing the owner's architecture.

Bold for a puppet.

And then came the moment that ruined the joke.

Modi looked at Putin.
"This is not an era of war."

He looked at Biden.
Said exactly the same thing.

No script changed.
No permission requested.
No approval required.
Just India's position.

So yes.

4,399 days later.

Russian missiles.
Russian oil.

Iran deals.

BRICS leadership.
African Union in G20.

Independent votes.
Independent trade.
Independent diplomacy.
Independent defence.

If this is what an American puppet looks like...
Then let the puppet remain for another 4399 days.
Because such puppets can only make India Sovereign.

Jai Bharat.

[Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) @md_deepesh]

If bad luck was a person, It was Krishna.
Born in a prison cell.

With chains.
Cold walls.
And fear.

The West writes self-help books after one breakup and a weekend depression.

Krishna was born with a death warrant.

His own uncle wanted him dead.

He never drank his mother's milk.

Hours after birth,
his father carried him across a mad river at midnight.

Rain above.
Death behind.
Darkness ahead.

No burning bush.
No sea parting.
No miracle announcing salvation.
No therapist with scented candles.

Just survival.

Born a prince.
Raised a cowherd.

Before he could speak,
they sent Putana.

Then Shakatasura.
Trinavarta.
Kaliya.

One after another.

As if destiny hated him personally.

And he still smiled.

People today collapse over an unfollow.

He lost everything early.

His parents.
His childhood.
His home.

And Radha.

Ah, Radha.

The part Bollywood never understands.

His closest friend Sudama lived in poverty.
Krishna could not protect everyone he loved.

Shishupala insulted him publicly.
Again and again.
Before assembled kings.

Krishna listened calmly.

Then came Jarasandha.
17 invasions.
Mathura burned again and again.

Then came the greatest tragedy.

The Mahabharata.

Krishna tried to stop it.
He went himself.
He sat before Duryodhana.

Pleaded for peace.
Just 5 villages.
Duryodhana refused.

And humanity walked into hell smiling.

18 days later, rivers carried blood.
1.66 billion dead.

Think about that.

An entire civilisation collapsing into dust.

And Krishna carried that silence.

No lamentation carved into scripture.
No prophet demanding heaven explain itself.

Just silence.

Then Gandhari cursed him.
A grieving mother blamed him for everything.

Krishna accepted it.

That is spiritual strength.

Then came the final collapse.

His own clan destroyed itself.
Drunk. Violent. Mad.

The Yadavas killed each other.
His own son died in that chaos.

Krishna watched.

Because some endings cannot be stopped.

Then Dwarka sank.

His city.
His dream.
His life's work.

Gone beneath the waves.

And finally...

The man who was greatest strategist.
The man kings feared.
The man sages worshipped.

Died alone in a forest.
One arrow.
A hunter's mistake.

No throne.
No army.
No grand farewell.
No Resurrection.

Just silence beneath the trees.

And yet...
He is called the complete being.

Not because life was kind.
But because pain never poisoned him.

That is Krishna's greatness.

Not miracles.
Not powers.
Not mythology.

Life gave him suffering.
He gave life wisdom.

Life gave him betrayal.
He gave humanity the Gita.

Life gave him war.
He gave the world detachment.

And in the middle of chaos,
he left us one terrifying truth:

"You control your actions.
Never the outcome."

Krishna did not teach escapism.
He taught endurance.

He did not teach positivity.
He taught responsibility.

He taught how to stand inside hell,
without becoming hell yourself.

That is why he still smiles.

And maybe...

That is why Bharat still survives.

One step towards PM Modi's vision for Aatmanirbhar Bharat.

Try it and also let us know if there are any errors.

[Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) @md_deepesh]

The desperation of the cockroaches surprised me.
Even I was ready to give Dharmendra Pradhan a pass.

The man has failed.
Scrutiny is deserved.

But then a question appeared.
Why this desperation?
Why Boston?
Why Germany?

Why now?
Why June 2026?

So, I started digging.
What I found had little to do with a paper leak.
It had everything to do with money.

A lot of money.

Three decisions were sitting on Pradhan's table.
All scheduled for July - Aug 2026.

All capable of reshaping Indian education.

Decision 1.
NCERT.
New textbooks.
Classes 9 to 12.

The new Mathematics curriculum introduces the Sulba Sutras.
A dangerous idea.

Because it tells Indian children something many would rather hide.
Mathematics lived here.

Long before Europe claimed ownership of the story.

The new History curriculum goes further.
The Aryan Invasion Theory.
Out.

The Sindhu-Sarasvati Civilisation.
In.

India's own story.
Returned to India.

Decision 2.
May 15, 2026.

CBSE issues a circular.
3 languages mandatory from Class 9.
At least two must be Indian languages.

Decision 3.
K. Radhakrishnan Committee reforms for NTA.

Decentralised examinations.
Technology-sovereign architecture.

No single point of failure.
No single point of manipulation.

Now ask the real question.
Who loses if all three happen?

Start with academia.

Harvard.
SOAS London.
Columbia.
Chicago.

Departments built around the Aryan Migration framework.

Annual grants at stake.
~ $500 million.

Then foreign universities.
UK.
US.
Australia.

Together earning roughly $3.7 billion annually from Indian students.
Around 1.8 million of them.

Fix India's system.
Build confidence.
Restore self-worth.
And that pipeline starts shrinking.

Then comes the coaching industry.

Manufacture anxiety.
Sell hope.
Repeat.

Worth ₹58,000 crore today.
Projected at ₹1,33,995 crore by 2028.

Built on scarcity.
Built on English-dominated examinations.

Decentralise NTA.
Expand Indian languages.
And the economics begin to wobble.

Allen.
Aakash.
FIITJEE.
BYJU'S.
Resonance.
Drishti IAS.
Thousands of smaller players.

Global investors have poured billions into this ecosystem.

Not for charity.
Not for patriotism.
For returns.

Then comes the NGO ecosystem.

The outrage industry.
The grant circuit.
A narrative that survives only if India remains intellectually dependent.

Teach children their own history.
Accurately.
And the narrative starts suffocating.

Funding follows narratives.
Funding leaves with them too.

Add it together.
Conservative estimate.

Nearly ₹3 lakh crore at risk.
More than $35 billion.
This is a business survival fight.

That is what India was about to dismantle.
That is why the meme factory found fresh energy.
That is why the protest lands on June 6.

Before the academic year begins.
Before the reforms become irreversible.

Pradhan may go.
Perhaps he should.
That is a separate debate.

But the policies are the real battlefield.
Always were.

Most people are still watching the headline.
And missing the war.

I have heard it many times bhai,From the mouth of Maharaj Ji @ankitatIIMA 😎

[BhikuMhatre @MumbaichaDon]

Deliberate Double Standards of Pakistan-Premi B£00dywood:

Khans who left projects before Actual Shoot Started-

Hakla- Munnabhai M.B.B.S
Salman- Baazigar, Josh
Aamir- Darr, Swades

But Film Workers' Body never issued 'Fatwa' to ban them.

Even Ranveer Singh left Fart-out Akhtar's Don-3 before the shoot started. But he's immediately banned by same Film Workers' Body.

Reason is obvious. For decades, B£00dywood glorified Pakistan for 'Sickular' reasons. Then came Dhurandhar & destroyed the entire agenda in few hrs. Being the face of the movie, it was obvious that Ranveer Singh will be targeted.

This's how B£00dywood works. Anti-Hindu & Pro-Pakistan. Propoganda through Entertainment.

Ranveer Singh was the only soft target among Dhurandhar Team. Aditya Dhar & Yami Gautam are now on that level that they don't have to approach any Karan Joker, Saste RAW agents ka YRF, Sutiya Bhansali or Reviews Manipulator Vidhu Vinod Chopra for any work. Akshaye Khanna lives in his own world & doesn't even ask for roles. Madhavan is in his own league. So softest target commercially was Ranveer Singh & he's hit with this ban.

Time to stand firm with Ranveer Singh right now, keeping aside all old controversies around him. Because if we don't teach lesson to this Pro-Pakistani lobby of B£00dywood NOW, No Big Actor will dare to act in a Nationalist Film that exposes REAL face of Pakistan & R@dical I$£am.

I Stand With Ranveer Singh. U can take ur call.

And don't forget -

1. Chief Advisor of Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) is Ashoke Pandit, who made his career claiming sympathy for being Kashmiri Pandit.

2. Deepika Padukone whose official husband is still Ranveer Singh... Has not spoken a single word in his support. Only Khuda knows under which pressure she is that she can't even stand with her official husband.

Reminder- 1st major film of the 'lobby' that's targeting Dhurandhar Lead Actor is releasing in coming days starring Alia Bhatt whose brother's name had popped up in investigation of Conspirators of 26-11 Mumbai Attacks & Sasta RAW agent Hrithik Roshan who was 1st one to call Dhurandhar a 'Political Propoganda'. Now do what you think fit.

[Ricardo @Ric_RTP]

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI.

The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace.

They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up:

Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it.

Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived.

Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead.

The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much.

Uber's story is even worse...

Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April.

Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems.

Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session.

The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money.

Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote:

"For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees."

This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans.

Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative.

Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing:

AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs.

The stock market rewarded every company that said it.

Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up.

But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill.

Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools.

Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible.

Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone.

And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control.

The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP.

This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in.

$725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work.

What do you think?

[Erik Solheim @ErikSolheim]

Why is the West not curious on the great Indian 🇮🇳 civilization?

This week Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Norway. The government rolled out the red carpet. King Harald invited for lunch. All bigwigs of Norwegian business turned up. This is of course as it should be at such a historic visit.

Rather different was media. No curiosity, no real attempt to understand India. When the third most powerful man in the world visits Norway, you may expect some real interest? An attempt to understand the world’s third largest economy, a global green leader, one of the world’s brightest civilizations??

It’s not that Norway is overrun with visit at this level. Last Indian top visit was Indira Gandhi in 1983. Last Chinese president visit was 1996, last American president was 2009.

Here are some taste bits from Norwegian media:

* Aftenposten the largest newspaper printed a caricature of Modi as a snake charmer, many found it racist and derogatory. The accompanying article (written by an otherwise brilliant journalist) described Modi as a “slightly annoying man” and simply showcased that India is not high on the papers reading lists.

* Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK), the state broadcaster, explained “why prime minister Støre is clearing his desk to receive Modi”. From everyone outside Norway I got exactly the opposite question: Why did Modi use his valuable time in such a small and insignificant place?

* Dagsavisen, a left of center daily, sent a young journalist to throw questions after Modi - claiming that India is 157 on a global democracy ranking. When a ranking is so contrary to common sense - why doesnt she ask those who created the ranking why they spread such nonsense?

I am not aware of one Norwegian journalist closely following India. NOT ONE! How can the public learn more?

Unless you believe democracy only fits a handful of small, homogenous, ultra rich western nations, India is the miracle of democracy. The large, complex, lingustically and religiously diverse nation with many poor people - which has etablished a vibrant democracy and is much less violent than Europe or America.

India can in fact make a claim to be the worlds most homegrown and impressive democracy.

We are entering the Asian century. Unless we Europeans become more curious - to civiliazation, history, politics and economy in the Global South - we will become the big losers of history.

Mr. Khan, you teach at Mayo College and once served as Executive Editor at Vogue India, yet you shamelessly tell the world that “Indian Muslims are in danger.” In the very country you now defame, you rose to elite institutions, influence, and privilege despite being a minority. If India were truly the dystopia you peddle to international audiences, your own life story would not exist. Stop manufacturing persecution narratives to earn applause abroad while enjoying every opportunity Bharat gave you.

[Parimal @Fintech03]

1987. A room in New Delhi is thick with the smell of old files & cold tea. The United States has just delivered a stinging slap to the face of the Indian Republic. They have officially refused to sell India the 'Cray X-MP' Supercomputer, the most powerful machine on Earth, claiming that India would use it for nuclear weapons.

The American officials mockingly suggest that India does not even have the electricity to keep such a machine running. In the middle of this national humiliation, a young, soft-spoken engineer named Vijay Bhatkar is asked by then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi: "Can we build our own?" Bhatkar does not hesitate. He looks at the No of the West & says: "We will not just build it; we will build it faster than you can ship it."

The Americans did not just stop at refusing the sale; they actively lobbied other nations to ensure India remained digitally blind. They believed that w/o their Logic Gates, India would remain a 3rd world backwater.

Bhatkar realized he could not replicate the Single-Processor behemoth of the Cray. Instead, he turned to Parallel Processing. He decided to stitch together 1000s of low-cost, off-the-shelf microprocessors. It was like building a giant's brain out of the neurons of ants.

In 1991, while the West was still celebrating its monopoly, Bhatkar unveiled the PARAM 8000. It was not just a computer; it was a Gigaflop monster.

To prove the PARAM was real, Bhatkar ran a standard global benchmark test. The results were sent to an international conference in Zurich. The PARAM 8000 was ranked as the 2nd most powerful supercomputer in the world, behind only the American machines. But there was a twist: the PARAM cost a fraction of the Cray, performed better in tropical heat, & was built in just 3 years.

When the PARAM 8000 was 1st turned on, the team did not have a high-tech cooling system like the Americans. They used industrial-grade desert coolers & adjusted the airflow manually. It was the ultimate Jugaad that defeated the most sophisticated tech embargo in history.

A major US newspaper ran a story with the headline: "Denied supercomputer, Angry India does it!" The ghost of the Native Engineer had officially entered the silicon temple. Vijay Bhatkar’s history is the story of how India became the IT Capital of the world.

Bhatkar founded the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC). He did not just build a machine; he built an ecosystem. Every software engineer in India today stands on the shoulders of the man who proved we did not need the West's permission to compute. Bhatkar was the 1 who realized that if computers only spoke English, 90% of India would be left behind. He led the development of GIST (Graphics & Intelligence Based Script Technology), allowing computers to work in Indian languages. He gave the Machine a local tongue.

Today, Bhatkar is a Padma Bhushan awardee, but he lives a life of deep spirituality & simplicity. He vanished from the corporate headlines to become a philosopher of the digital age.

The West thought they could freeze India’s future by withholding a single machine. They forgot that the Indian mind does not need a 'Cray' to think; it only needs a 'No' to ignite. Forget building a supercomputer; Bhatkar built a mirror, & for the 1st time, the West had to look into it & see that the primitive colony had become the master of the code.

Joseph Vijay became Chief Minister.
The people celebrated democracy.
But did they actually choose?

Meet Santiago Martin.

Lottery King.
Political donor.
Diplomat.
And perhaps the most powerful man in South Indian politics.

Net worth?
More than ₹6,000 crore.

The official story sounds beautiful.
A poor child labourer.
From Myanmar.

He returns to Coimbatore with nothing.

Starts small.
Builds an empire.

India loves these stories.

But reality moved very fast.

By 1987,
Martin already operated five lottery shops simultaneously.

Five.
Not one struggling tea stall.
Not one roadside counter.

Five operational lottery businesses.

A poor migrant becoming a king in a few years.
Almost cinematic.

Nobody asked where the capital came from.

Then came the raids.

Income Tax hit nearly 70 locations.
ED uncovered shell companies.
Benami properties.
False liabilities.
Unaccounted income.

The numbers became absurd.

₹595 crore allegedly undisclosed.
350 shell entities.
₹3,000 crore properties under questionable structures.
₹15,000 crore annual turnover from linked illegal companies.

Then came a death.

His cashier Palanisamy was interrogated.
Two days later, he was found dead in a pond.

The story disappeared quietly.

Tamil Nadu moved on.

Martin did not.

Instead, he funded everybody.

DMK got the Highest.
TMC.
BJP.
YSRCP.

₹1,368 crore in electoral bonds.

Now pause there.

Because his declared yearly profit was around ₹49 crore.
Yet he donated multiple times that amount politically.

So where does the real money come from?

Myanmar appears.
Bhutan appears.
Nepal appears.

Martin Myanmar.
Lottery monopolies.
Cross-border structures.

Then another layer appears.

Liberia.

Martin served as Consul General for Liberia.

That is not just a title.
That means diplomatic access.

Diplomatic insulation.
Diplomatic corridors.

And then Vatican appears.

Pope Benedict XVI personally issued an Apostolic Blessing.
It was given to Martin and his family.

Most Catholics never even see the Pope closely.
Martin received one of the Vatican’s highest symbolic recognitions.

Then came the ecosystem around him.

Foundations.
Church-linked networks.
Civil society connections.
International coordination.

Meanwhile, Tamil Nadu’s anti-conversion law vanished.
The same political ecosystem received massive funding.
The same ecosystem also defended conversion activity.

Connect the dots yourself.

Now fast forward to 2026.

Martin’s wife wins through AIADMK.
Declared assets: ₹5,683 crore.

His son wins through NDA-backed politics in Puducherry.

His son-in-law Aadhav Arjuna rises through TVK.
Now positioned No.2 in Joseph Vijya’s Cabinet.

One family.
Three rival camps.
All victorious.

That is not political luck.
That is board control.

Tamil Nadu thinks it elected leaders.
Maybe it only selected players already placed on the board.

And maybe the real question is not who Santiago Martin funds.
But who Santiago Martin ultimately serves.

The secret to tech survival?

Stop accepting their default configurations. Build your own leverage, dictate the absolute terms of your hardware, and direct your own reality.
