It's rare that you find someone with enough emotional and mental patience and maturity to work through shit with. Like actually communicate, and lose their ego because they value the connection more than their pride. You gotta leave your ego at the door in love. It's a must.
Karma is the most misunderstood word. It is not cosmic/God’s punishment. It is not fate. It is not the universe getting even with you for your mistakes. The Bhagavad Gita describes Karma with accuracy. Every action rooted in ego, in desire, in fear, creates a binding. Every action offered without attachment to its outcome creates freedom. The question is never what happened to me. The question is always from where did I act. From fear or from truth. From ego or from something deeper. That distinction, made consistently is what the Gita calls the path of liberation. Every single moment. 🙏
Going to temple / participating in rituals just for the sake of it is useless.
Devas don't need your worship, they won't favor you over others just because you worship them.
It is also not a transaction, if you offer x you will get y.
Upasana, Prarthana etc are for us, to make us better, remove impurity from our minds. When we do that, we become deserving of blessing in form of strenght, intelligence, clarity and peace of mind.
Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
She is the First Lady of Venezuela beaten up by US Army Commanados who invaded her bedroom at midnight before abducting her. Never ever listen to any lecture on rights, rules based International Order, feminism from any NGOwallah as most of them get their funding directly or indirectly from the US.
Foreign power uses military force to remove the native ruler.
The natives don't have the means to fight back.
Foreign power will now decide who should rule the natives.
With no say from the natives in that decision. Because foreigners know best.
And then the foreign power takes over their expensive resources.
To be sent back to their own country for cheap/free.
With again no say from the natives.
And the natives must buy only from the foreigner.
Overpriced, expensive goods that poor natives can't afford.
The weak native economy crumbles further as the foreign power loots the poor.
The natives get poorer, and the foreign power gets richer at its expense.
It was called Colonialism. The world believed it will never come back.
It is back - proudly announced by a US President and playing out in full public view in the age of social media.
In 2026.
Colonialism is back.
The United States needs to stay out of Venezuela. Let the Venezuelan people determine their future. We don't want other countries to choose our leaders--so we have to stop trying to choose theirs.
The most admirable thing about Akshaye Khanna is how genuinely content he seems with his life. He was at peace before Dhurandhar, and he appears just as undisturbed after the film created a fresh, unprecedented craze around him.
In similar situations, most actors would aggressively monetise the moment with back-to-back interviews, TV appearances, podcasts, and constant visibility to maximise money, relevance, and fame. Khanna, however, has been nowhere to be seen.
The ability to not chase validation even when it’s freely available is a level of self-assurance and inner balance one should truly aspire to achieve.
In a new quantum experiment, scientists saw something that challenges everything we think we know about time. Instead of flowing forward like a river, time seemed to loop and fold back on itself. Particles behaved as if their future could affect their past, blurring the line between cause and effect in ways that defy ordinary understanding.
This strange behavior was observed through quantum entanglement a phenomenon where two particles remain mysteriously linked, no matter how far apart they are. When scientists changed how they measured one particle, it seemed to alter the history of its partner retroactively. It’s as if “now” and “then” exist together, constantly reshaping each other in a single, connected moment.
The findings hint that time may not be a one-way path but a flexible structure that bends and connects distant events. Your choices don’t rewrite your past, but on a quantum level, the universe might not follow the rules of linear order at all. Reality could be stranger than we’ve ever imagined.
If babies understood embarrassment, most of them would never learn to walk or speak because of the amount of failure required to improve.
This was one of our first lessons in life but somehow, we forgot
CJI is a Dalit, a Buddhist, and an admirer of Ambedkar. Ambedkarite Buddhists take 22 vows, the first being: I shall have no faith in Brahma, Vishnu, or Mahesh, nor worship them.
If you believe in this vow, fine. Have no faith, don’t worship. We don’t want you to. But that’s your personal matter. The line must be drawn when personal beliefs color professional judgments. The petitioner before the Court was exercising rights guaranteed by Articles 25 to 28, the right to worship, the right to faith, and the right to protection of religious practice.
As Chief Justice, the duty is to uphold those rights, regardless of personal disbelief or dislike. The plea was simple: restoration of an idol’s head. The Court could have ruled either way, yes or no. But instead of judicial clarity, why resort to mocking or preaching?
Neighbor 1: Never had a fully serving PM
Neighbor 2: Overthrown by literal terrorists
Neighbor 3: Overthrown by literal terrorists
Neighbor 4: Overthrown over corruption
Neighbor 5: Overthrown by its own army
Neighbor 6: Overthrown over corruption
Neighbor 7: Communist dictatorship
It’s so ridiculously easy to take for granted the sheer stability of our democracy. We’ve had—still have—all kinds of malevolent forces working tirelessly to subvert our order.
We are not a communist country but have a literal communist state and a litany of active communist parties fully functional in our system that swear allegiance not to India but to the CCP.
We’re not an Islamic state but we’ve had a literal Islamic state with Islamic order and a whole host of parties that swear allegiance not to India but to the global “Brotherhood.”
And yet we march on along our own unique path that refuses to join any other. In fits and starts, sure, but we continue to remain neither Islamic nor communist regardless of who assumes power. This is very easy to take for granted, but...
It shouldn’t.
We live in a much darker world today than we did so far. We’ve had several missteps in the past, but we endured. The coming days won’t be as forgiving. Opposition is the definition of democracy, but what we have for opposition today, bringing them even in the ballpark of power will be a catastrophe we won’t recover from. Keep that in mind at every ballot.
Take time to reflect on your priorities and values regularly. Ask yourself if your current lifestyle aligns with your long-term goals and aspirations, and make adjustments accordingly.
America bombed Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan, Iran’s key nuclear sites last night, shortly after Iran’s brother Pakistan nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize in exchange for a deluxe thali for their Field Marshal.
Bangladesh is closely monitoring the whole evolving situation.
Air India's Boeing 787 crashes shortly after take-off in Ahmedabad
• Capt Sumeet Sabharwal was flying the plane—8200 hours of flying experience
• CoPilot Clive Kundar had 1100 hours of experience
• As soon as the flight took off, the pilot gave a MAYDAY call—the last voice reached ATC
A thorough investigation is needed on what could possibly go wrong within seconds of takeoff ??
