Importance to find - balance between duty and love. - balance between individual and collective - balance between realpolitik and idealism That's what Dharma teaches. That's how Dharma should be practised.
Check the author. Indian origin. Hindu. Scum.
When Prada debuted a sandal that looked strikingly similar to India’s beloved Kolhapuris, the online outrage machine fired up, writes @KarishmaJourno bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Good one by @sreemoytalukdar on how the Modi govt. transforms hostility in the neighbourhood to partnerships through patience. What is referred to on this platform as the “shantipurvak” approach 😁 firstpost.com/opinion/modis-…
I don't think it is wrong to expect a son to continue the lineage of your kula. Hindu society had this expectation for centuries. This expectation reached insane levels which led to anti-shastra female foeticide. Otoh there are rituals described to beget a female child as well.
Ghanta. My paternal grandfather had three kids. First was my father. Second was my aunt. Third was my uncle.
Three forces were at play (loosely) Congress (Hindu side), Muslim League (Muslim side) and British. British allied with the Muslims time and again & used it as an obstacle to derail the freedom movement. Later, Brits had geopolitical considerations to support Pakistan demand.
A big takeaway from this book is that the idea that Partition was a solely British engineered ploy to divide Hindus & Muslims is false. This idea benefits Islamists across South Asia & secularists in India. Rather Partition was a successful project by Islamists who convinced…
This requires a nuanced discussion tbh. And both sides which take maximalist positions (there is no anti brom sentiment in MH or Mh is bhimta rashtra, casteist & anti brom) are wrong here. Frankly, a quality book is required to explain the social dynamics in different parts of MH
MH is so anti Brahmin that a Brahmin Devendra Fadnavis is going to be just the second CM to complete two full terms. The first one to do so was a Banjara (ST) CM. And I a Maratha voted for a coalition led by a Brahmin Fadnavis over a coalition led by a Maratha Sharad Pawar. So…
The dynamics were different back in the day due to the age difference. In today's times, when the difference is 2-3 years at max, the wife isn't going to feel obligated to touch her husband's feet. Woh bhaav ane hi nahi wala. Especially in love marriages.
No hate to anyone, but if I were a husband, I could never let my wife touch my feet like this. I know it’s part of tradition for some, but I believe love and respect in a marriage should flow both ways. So if my wife touched my feet, I’d touch hers too period
Ghanta. My paternal grandfather had three kids. First was my father. Second was my aunt. Third was my uncle.
In India when there are three kids, the first two are always girls
Someone please explain the significance of this in simple terms.
This is fantastic news. The Manufacturing PMI climbed to 59.2 in July from 58.4 in June, its highest level in nearly 17-and-a-half years, signalling a strong improvement in the health of the manufacturing sector. business-standard.com/economy/news/f…
Bumrah this series so far Vs 1-7 6 wickets @ 41.2 Vs 8-11 6 wickets at 5.8 Are we allowed to call it statpadding? #ENGvsIND
Not yet. But we will get to that level of dominance.
Vishwanathan Anand's legacy basically made India replace the Soviet Union in chess.
What's so inspiring about Prashant Kishore? That industries must not be brought in Bihar?
If I were voting in Bihar I would vote for Jan Suraaj. Prashant Kishor is the only inspiring and important Indian leader I have seen since I became a political columnist decades ago. We need a hundred more like him.
And one of the opening batters was Zak Crawley in both these partnerships.

Booing is not surprising given the English crowd is amongst the worst. But England's ex cricketers keep talking about spirit of cricket while their bowlers are exploiting a player's injury.
This English bowling attack targeted Pant’s injured leg relentlessly, their so called dressed up audience booed a 25-year-old Gill when he came to bat yesterday. If anyone dares say “England plays with spirit,” I’ll laugh in their face.
Blue Gang's target: GC women who talk against reservation What they do: Morph pics, sexually abuse, make derogatory & vulgar remarks, give sexual violence threats Imagine the outrage if this was being done to women from so-called "oppressed" category. GC women are easy target…
An All India final. Less go.
Koneru Humpy takes down Lei Tingjie with the Black pieces as well - she defeats Lei 2-0 in the Blitz tiebreaks and moves to the finals of FIDE Women's World Cup 2025!
First they said Mughals weren't evil. Now they accept Mughals were evil but are questioning Hindu rulers. Mughal harem mai ho rahe atyachar ko whitewash kiya iss ne pehele aur ab whataboutery chal rahi hai.

India losing 14 successive tosses is a 1 in 16,384 chance. But, had Karun Nair played alongside Kamboj, Jadeja and Bumrah, they would have four players with the same birthday, a 1 in 149,635 chance. Had Shreyas Iyer also played there would be five - a 1 in 39 million chance!
