I think we should stop celebrating achievers. Fastest , highest, Nobel prize winners, etc. Instead there should be a culture of celebrating kindness and compassion. There shouldn't be any rewards or awards, but an understanding of their value.

No one forced or trapped Vinoba Bhave into joining the Mahatma; his association was a matter of deep philosophical conviction and voluntary service. To reduce such a significant life’s work to a mere label of "toilet cleaning" is to ignore the profound impact of the Bhoodan movement and the social reforms he championed. Are you acting as a spokesperson for a distorted historical narrative, or are you simply engaging in partisan vitriol that prioritizes ideological tribalism over objective analysis of India's historical figures?

Oneness as foundation for diversity. Pavan Varma called this 'The audacity of ideas' but it is the spiritual vision and praxis as @SadhguruJV ji points. This is why we are 'indifferent to differences' as SNB puts it. When rishis say Bharat is the guru, they allude to this spiritual core which is India's mission in the world.

Hemingway built everything from short flat sentences, Faulkner from sentences that refuse to end, and we asked five AI models to imitate both, plus Poe and McCarthy. What came back says more about the machines than about the writers.

Everything neuroscience now believes about the unconscious, memory, and human motivation was first discovered by Freud. Neuropsychologist Mark Solms, entrusted with editing Freud's complete scientific works, argues the rediscovery was entirely independent: mainstream cognitive neuroscience kept arriving at the same conclusions without ever following his trail. Returning to Freud's work may be the key to cracking consciousness itself. Tap here to read the full interview. iai.tv/articles/the-l

Walked into a random cafe-bookshop in Paris (called “Off Campus” at Oberkampf metro) and came across this unbelievably cool and compelling book — it’s exactly the kind of eclectic brilliance that made me want to learn everything about everything when I was young. Wish I still had the discipline and passion to write something like this.

This religion and culture is authentically f*cked up. According to one commentator, they do this in Gaza as well (I'm pretty sure I've seen videos on that). It is beyond bizarre that queers, feminists, and social justice and human rights advocates want to align with these people. This is what I mean about the egregore, it attracts not so much disturbed people as disturbed political and religious groupthink (ideologies, tribal epistemologies).

The way totalitarianism and suppression of free speech) works in the West (enforced by litigation) is different to how it works in Russia or Iran (enforced by the State, usually via a fake judiciary ruling), but it's still totalitarianism.

Veda for Gen Z explores what ancient wisdom can teach us about focus, distraction and navigating the attention economy. Maybe the Vedas understood the attention economy before the algorithm did. #VedaForGenZ #GenZ #Doomscrolling #DigitalDetox #AttentionEconomy #VedicWisdom

The Vedas had a simple insight: where your attention goes, your energy follows. In an age of endless notifications, scrolling and distractions, perhaps the real question isn’t “How much time do I spend online?” but “Where am I spending my attention?”
