जिज्ञासुरपि योगस्य शब्दब्रह्मातिवर्तते
समबुद्धि रूप योग का जिज्ञासु भी वेद में कहे हुए सकाम कर्मों के फल का उल्लंघन कर जाता है
One who is even curious about #YOG with an ambivalent mind gets what is beyond any desires fulfilled by practicing the teachings of the Vedas.
सड़क पर किसी की बहन-बेटी को परेशान करने वाले ये मत भूलें…
हर लड़की किसी न किसी के घर की इज़्ज़त होती है। छेड़खानी मर्दानगी नहीं, घटिया सोच की निशानी है।

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.
500+ days in jail.
Bail denied. Again.
Chinmoy Krishna Das Prabhu, a spiritual leader and an ISKCON monk, continues to languish behind bars in Bangladesh while the world watches.
When even his lawyers are intimidated, threatened and silenced in court corridors, what justice are we even talking about?
Is advocating for the rights of the Minority Hindu community a crime? When a saffron-clad soul is treated like a criminal for raising his voice, the world CANNOT remain silent.
I appeal to the Government of Bangladesh to give medical aid and, more importantly, access to fair justice to Chinmoy Krishna Das Prabhu immediately. May he be granted bail at the earliest.
And to all the pseudo-secularists and Selective Human rights Activists around the World who flood timelines overnight, wave watermelons and trend hashtags on cue, your silence can be still heard. Apparently, your humanity has a filter.

🚨For 65 Years , Hindu didn’t Understand that The Gandhi Family Wanted a Mu$lim Nation ! …..,, BUT …
🚨 In 11 Years , Mu$lims Understand that Modi Wants a Hindu Nation !!
🚨 Wake Up Call For Hindus !! 👇
Lenskart cannot respect your bindi.
Not because they hate you.
Because they literally cannot afford to.
Let me show you exactly why.
Peyush Bansal tweeted:
"We are proudly built in Bharat, for Indians."
Beautiful line.
Terrible lie.
Start with the factory.
Lenskart's India plant opened in 2023.
Before that, China joint venture.
That JV still runs today.
Frames.
Raw materials.
Supply chain.
All from China.
Indian factory mostly assemble.
Now look at who owns this "Bharatiya" company.
Peyush Bansal: 10.28%
Neha Bansal: 7.74%
Amit Chaudhary: 0.98%
Sumeet Kapahi: 0.96%
All four founders combined: 20%.
The remaining 80%?
SoftBank: Japan.
Temasek: Singapore.
ADIA: Abu Dhabi.
KKR: New York.
Fidelity: Boston.
Now here is what nobody tells you.
Every foreign investor runs ESG compliance.
Before writing a cheque.
ESG = Environmental, Social, Governance.
A scoring system that has nothing to do with Environment.
Built in New York and Amsterdam.
It decides who gets capital.
Inside ESG lives another animal.
Called DEI.
Diversity. Equity. Inclusion.
DEI was designed in America.
Built on American horrors.
Black minorities.
Gender wars.
LGBTQ rights.
Never designed for India.
Does not understand India.
Here is what DEI scores as "positive":
Hijab at work = Positive signal.
Turban at work = Positive signal.
Here is what DEI marks as risk:
Bindi = Majority religion marker.
Tilak = Majority religion.
Kalawa = Majority religion.
In Western DEI logic,
The majority is the oppressor.
Majority does not need protection.
So when Lenskart's HR writes a grooming policy,
They are not writing for you.
They write for their colonial masters.
Because Lenskart is chasing a $10 billion IPO.
Does your bindi sit anywhere in that number?
Their first customer is not you.
Their first customer is SoftBank.
Their first customer is ADIA.
Their first customer is an ESG agency in Amsterdam.
You buy one pair of glasses.
They invest $500 million.
Do the math on who Lenskart listens to.
Now the government.
You think they don't know?
They know everything.
Every ministry understands how foreign capital
erases civilizational identity.
SEBI approved the DRHP.
Not one clause protecting Hindu identity.
Because the government also wants the IPO.
GST. Tax. Economic headline.
Your kalawa / kada is not in that equation.
This is not a Lenskart problem.
This is every unicorn in India.
Swiggy.
Zomato.
Ola.
Meesho.
Zepto.
Check their cap tables.
Check the ESG reports.
Check the grooming policies in their HR folders.
Every company 60-80% owned by foreign capital
is a branch office of Western values.
"Built in Bharat" is a tagline.
"For Indians" is a marketing campaign.
The policy document tells you who they serve.
Your Bindi.
Your Kalawa.
Your Kada.
Your 5,000 years.
Irrelevant to billionaires chasing an IPO.
But minority appeasement?
That scores points in Amsterdam.
And we call ourselves an Independent Nation.
🎬With Ishwar's grace, am posting Part-1 of my short Movie: 'Fibonacci Speaks'. May many children see it like Dhurandhar! to know How our Maths changed the World !
Look at the Pakistan Army officers who attended funeral of Jaish e Muhammad and Lashkar e Tayyiba terrorists killed in #OperationSindoor by India.

Maj. Gen. Rao Imran Sartaj

Malik Sohaib Ahmed Bherth

There’s a dialogue by Om Puri in Hrithik Roshan’s Lakshya :
“साहब, अगर पाकिस्तानी हारे, तो एक बार फिर लौट कर आता है। अगर जीत जाओ तो फ़ौरन लापरवाह ना हो जाना।”
That line wasn’t written for cinematic flair, it reflects the Indian Army’s deep understanding of Pakistan’s repeated betrayals. It likely came straight from the mindset within military circles.
The Pakistani Army may have believed they could catch us off guard with this post-ceasefire attack, but they were mistaken. Our forces and systems were alert, and they are responding swiftly and effectively.
Looks like Pakistan has hired Indian influencers and agencies to trend "de-escalate" in India, aiming to pressure our govt and forces into refraining from retaliating against serious provocations.
I urge @NIA_India and the GoI to investigate this for potential enemy funding.
