@peeleraja But why mock anyone in the name of "proven peer reviewed science"? Going by what you said the professor was good at his job, which is what is primary. When it comes to regular Joe's, illiterate or not any mocking on this is useless and unnecessary

"According to ancient Indian jurisprudence (Dharma Shastra), environment can never be used as an excuse for a Tamasik collapse"

😃 Beautiful! I'll copy this line with people as needed @Fintech03

[Parimal @Fintech03]

It seems this "2nd Chetan" woke up & decided that the best way to stay relevant was to write a controversial, contrarian take on this subjudiced matter.

Bhagat’s article operates on a flawed assumption of Linear Determinism, the idea that if we apply a massive external force (parental pressure), it directly & predictably dictates the resulting kinetic action (Pushing some1 off the cliff int his case).

Millions of young adults in India experience the exact same vector of external force. Personally, when I was growing up, I was a little better at Maths (used to solve problems mentally). So, after my matric exams, I went to my father & said, "Pappa Ji, I want to take Commerce because I feel I am good with calculations."

My father, w/o even looking at me, said, "Chappal dekhe ho... Engineering krna hai, woh bhi IIT jaana hai."

I completely absorbed it (elastic deformation) & wisely decided not to push some1 into the nearby Ganga river in my village.

For the system to collapse into a vector of cold-blooded decisions, F (internal) must be completely devoid of resistive moral mass. Bhagat is blaming the acceleration entirely on the push, ignoring the fact that the object’s own internal mechanics chose the direction of the cliff. In pure physics, we cannot blame the gravity of the slope for a car that was intentionally steered off the edge.

According to ancient Indian jurisprudence (Dharma Shastra), environment can never be used as an excuse for a Tamasik collapse. A person with a functional moral core (Sattva)/even a basic survival drive (Rajas) will exhaust every logical & kinetic option: crying/fighting/running away/public exposure before they ever cross the threshold into pure malice.

Nothing is hiding nowhere. Indian/Hindu vegetarian diet always had milk and ghee which everyone knows came from a bovine. Point about Punjabis consuming more diary is valid, but "vegetarian" meaning only plant based is a new western thing ...

[Sama Hoole @SamaHoole]

Every few months, someone holds up Punjab as living proof that plants build big, healthy people. The Punjabis are the tallest and most powerfully built people in India, the argument runs, and theirs is one of the most vegetarian states in the country. Case closed.

Then you look at what's actually on the Punjabi table.

Punjab drinks more milk per head than almost anywhere else in India, miles above the national average. Milk, lassi, dahi, paneer, and ghee folded into nearly everything. A Punjabi kitchen runs on dairy the way an engine runs on fuel.

Dairy is an animal product. It is dense with animal protein, and it drives up IGF-1, the growth signal that lays down height and muscle. In every way that matters to a growing body, it is meat that happens to pour.

So yes, the Punjabis go easy on the mutton. They make up for it many times over in a glass. The dairy built those frames. The missing meat had nothing to do with it.

Take the dairy away, hand them a bowl of lentils instead, and watch what happens to the height inside a single generation.

"Vegetarian" was always doing a great deal of quiet work in that sentence. It was hiding an animal.

@ShyamSPrasad Such development involves some amount (usually a lot) of risk. And the crores per acre took decade+. Only way to solve the problem is offering the farmers a way to take this risk by way of equity. How else will you solve the problem?

Dear Gen Z, I’ve got some lore to tell you

[Bala @sbchandar]

@beastoftraal Some kind of a "Genz surge" is missing in the list. Looking at the young people voting percentage and them mostly not knowing who is the candidate and still voting is telling.

[Bala @sbchandar]

@Sudhanshu1414 What or who is "India" here? If you go to an ATM and drop the paper slip with transaction details and closing balance directly into the dust bin or floor who in "India" are we blaming? What you saw is a good case of recycling+ a careless guy who threw his statement

[Bala @sbchandar]

Let me join the fun. Mexico and many mediterranian countries produce tons of tomatoes, lentils, cilantro. Barely even have one variety of Rasam. Ever wondered why?

[Krish Ashok @krishashok]

India makes more milk than any country on Earth. Italy has 400 cheeses. India has roughly zero aged ones. Ever wondered why?

@thekaipullai @ksmkkbookscom Way too much of a rant with wrong info here and there, regardless of how good intentions and facts the post has. Bad air quality compared to which city in India?

[Bala @sbchandar]

@f_n_a_m_e @arunp2810 😊 this one Nirupama Rao and few others suddenly got "activated".

[Bala @sbchandar]

@KumarR33141 @TheRocketMediaX You don't know when such calling comes. Not just to be a monk, there are people who drop it and go do social service. Nothing is a waste for a deserving candidate. Govt education can't employ astrologers to predict where this goes😄

The person was happily fighting with the scooter rider while leaving his door open🤦‍♂️ whole traffic came to a crawl

[Bala @sbchandar]

Sir @hsrltrafficps @bellandurutrfps this was happening in the morning at 8:50 on Bellandur flyover. You need more cameras or one person like this causes a traffic jam that lasts for an hour on the most congested section in Bangalore
