Putinyoshka Vampire Gobbling Up The World

 

When I am tree

When I am tree 

Molecules will disintegrate

Congregate and integrate the chance

Somewhere in deep earth or hilltop

Or in some rotting matter

It will break out and reach for the sky

I feel the rush of xylems and phloems

Burst into leaves and flowers

Sense the sun, raindrops, and breeze

Pattern the world in my sway

Agnipath scheme is the need of hour

The Defence force of the country is not a charity initiative nor an employment guarantee scheme. Indeed, nor is the government. Ideally the government is elected to frame policy and implement for the betterment of the society. They are expected to provide the wherewithal for education system to nurture young minds, health infrastructure to provide basic health and nutrition and investment in all the avenues for citizens to progress into better people. Which also means having an efficient and effective defence forces to protect the democratic nation. Agnipath scheme is well thought out. It can be reviewed after few years as the need maybe. As of know it is apt.        

Employment is not for government to create. Few centuries back people used to find their own job depending on their need, aspirations and skills. That is how it should be. Progressive societies prospered while primitive societies like India suffered hence couldn’t contribute much to humanity despite its vast population. The idea of job is exaggerated by feudal corporates and spread by market influenced education system that churn out herds, ably supported by religion, rabidly panting for money, position and power. Ideally education is expected to create self-aware individuals. Self-awareness increases the connection with reality hence means and intent to respond to the arising need/challenge that one would like to respond to. This then creates skills as it suits. Government therefore must invest in all the avenues to nurture all sort of skills. Internet has created a connected world for knowledge and skills to spread. The idea of education has nothing to do with goals hence marks and examinations doesn’t really make sense. Education is about creating awareness and exploring possibilities through inquisitive mind. Skills creates searing eye to probe but presence is what that gives it value. There is no presence when life is capsulated in goals. It is not about fish’s eye but awareness of fish, the world. A self-aware human will never aim for fish’s eye. Despite high skills his or her presence does not allow skill to be narrowed down to crass. That is aesthetic. Its an indelible mark of humanity.                   

Meanwhile there should be zero tolerance to vandalism. Each and every one who vandalizes the public property must be tracked, identified and face exemplary punishment. Also, it must be thoroughly checked whether the vandalizers were instigated by controllers. Many a times these vandalizing herd are only pawn in the sinister game.  

 

Consolidated Strategic Corp

 

It was while reading about Artificial Intelligence and its future implication on security that there was a realization of need for Consolidated Strategic Corp – cutting edge wing that consolidates all the latest innovations, awareness and challenges, into a systematic system for consolidated strategy that protects democratic nations and their geopolitical interests from external threat as also a means to synergically contribute to international security challenges. With rogue players like Russia, and multilateral organizations like UN undermined by Western powers, as also pernicious rise of authoritarian China, national security has become a matter of grave concern for nations across the world. The blatant reality of crimes on humanity perpetrated in Ukraine while international community are reduced to audience is shocking, the cascading impact on food security is equally grim, meanwhile happenings in SriLanka is a forbidding possible future. The efforts for international association to tackle urgent pan national issues facing humanity is being grievously undermined, hence it looks like climate injustice will be the first impact of climate catastrophe. Hedonist feudal and status quo forces controlling and gaining from the system will be the early perpetrators of the climate crimes on humanity. What is a threat to international community is essentially a threat to national security.      

With AI revealing, in its discreet setting ofcourse (we are indeed quite far from AGI -Artificial General Intelligence), a new dimension of reality and a new understanding of logic it is but incumbent for policy makers dealing with national security to be not only be aware but actively involved. Knowledge was expected to be bring humanity together but AI -functioning within its discreet settings that is going to guide strategic decisions, is creating national interest silos of intelligence controlled and dictated by AI. Defence establishments across the world are expected to ‘blindly’ follow decisions since they are incapable to scrutinize these. Secondly, because of the acute awareness that AI has access to intelligence and pattern logic that humans are incapable to decipher nor anticipate, and lastly, the matter of urgency and reluctance to take human responsibility when facing higher intelligence and stakes of national security. For these very reasons there is a call for international moratorium on AI. Then there are other emerging technological challenges like quantum technology and biotechnology, both these will have serious implication on national security. With quantum computer supremacy classical binary computer encryptions face immediate threat which means all strategic information -that has national security implications, is being compromised. Present strategic data and interest are also threatened by future decryptions -harvest now decrypt later is the clarion call of data pirates. Post quantum cryptography is an immediate challenge to protect public key digital infrastructure since classical computers will have a long run despite quantum computers. Defence establishments must be professional enough to not only be fully aware of these challenges but be equipped to face eventualities. CRISPR Cas9 has completely revolutionized and scaringly democratized biotechnology. It has a direct impact on national security. It is an important tool to face climate change impacted food security and biodiversity conservation by removing chemical fertilizers and pesticides. CRISPR gene drive can change species. Then there is issue of Neurotechnology, Brain Computer Interface (BCI), that set to tap brain data, despite medical benefits malicious intent is much severe with even UN creating framework for Neuro rights as Human rights. Outer space missions is another area with strategic implications.                          

With climate change impacting weather pattern climate vulnerable regions like India needs special attention. At regional level climate crisis is also a serious national security matter. It has potential to severely disrupt society through migration, lack of access to nutrition and shortages of essential supplies. With intensity and frequency of climate events set to increase National Disaster Management will have to eventually include Defence forces or for effectiveness vice versa. Defence establishment needs to be equipped with these new challenges. They will have to be reoriented and train (or be trainer) for climate related unique prevention, rescue and salvage missions through NCC and sainik schools, NDA so on. These will be much crucial in climate vulnerable regions particularly on or near vast international borders. So, clearly, they will need to chart down strategies and operation in consonance with meteorological departments. Have they worked out channels and procedures? Are they aware of immense challenges? Are these being included in the training manuals of future soldiers?         

Consolidated Strategic Corp need to have an Active Research Wing that works on real time collecting and consolidating data, looking for pattern, for strategic attention. Meanwhile human exposure to dangerous terrain and risky actions must be minimized and automated. Human as data collector and response unit -which is what a soldier essentially is, must be replaced by deep learning robots. Primitive conceptions of army corps (as feudal patriarchy domain) and references herein (caste/religion based racist colonial manipulations consolidated by caste cannibals) must be replaced with thinking soldiers. Modernization of Defence forces must strive for a thinking soldier who is an asset to society, and not a representation of patriarchal primitive feudal ways (as is mostly seen in India, or much grievous in Pakistan that is a serious threat to democracy, nor psycho-social liabilities as in USA or a robot following order of mass murdering maniac like Putin). It should not be reflection of conceptions of medieval times. Defence establishment must synergically associate with challenges of our times.

Consolidated Strategic Corp need be center for keeping abreast with latest innovations in fast changing world, analyzing patterns, unique aberrations, and its implications on national security. It must therefore act on these inputs for preparedness and variable responses. External threat is becoming quite fluid hence the response must too be context driven with complete awareness using all the modern insights and repercussions. Human life is precious, so is biodiversity and other species, and importantly ideals of democratic society. Nation’s defence force must be prepared for emerging challenges.      

All that matters

All that matters

 

When home is washed away 

Trees uprooted

Streets silted

Living ends

Survival begins

Dearly hold on to memories of the land

Say final goodbye to flameback's rattling calls

Measure your steps with care as you leave

For it retrace hominin hope and anguish 

Sacrificial rituals of fatal flaw

 

Democracy is the most evolved form of governance despite shortcomings. It offers voice and space for individuals to associate, explore and grow. It provides the lynchpin for liberty and equality. It makes egalitarian society possible and provides individuals wherewithal to pursue their life in freedom and care. It gives choices and potential to grow and explore. It is a vibrant value of inquisitive logical association that synergize with evolved ideals hence humanity. It provides space for contrarian ideologies and ideas against stagnant thoughts and regressive majoritarian values. Democracy is independence with meaningful restriction when threatens life and liberty of others.

US is an evolved democracy on many parameters but is also deeply flawed thus offers valuable lessons. Much of progressive thoughts, scientific insights, technological progress, individual brilliances and pinnacle of associations can be traced to US. It has attracted best of minds from all across the world over the decades.  The flaw of US is the fragility of democracy, it will become fatal if citizens are not vigilant. It collapses when citizens can no longer associate as humans. Democracy is dependent of responsible citizens. Citizens make democracy. A better human makes a better citizen. Systems that dehumanize human being into unthinking entities, isolating them from their existential realities, capitalizing on their insecurities to offer a better world is a constant threat. Systems that insidiously hunt on spiritual yearnings of human beings by offering secure fraternal associations based on miracle books, regressive practices and values, segregation and exceptionalism adds to problems of democracy making it weak and vulnerable for charlatans to work on opportunities. Religion everywhere is a threat to humanity. Democratic societies therefore must rigorously scrutinize religion, providing no place for it to nurture. Systems like capitalism driven market have perniciously entered human minds through digital media. These dopamine based algorithms keep them excited as they increasingly loose their faculties to comprehend, analyze and think hence associate with lowest denominator of comfort. Market exaggerates and trap humans as consumers and data source. Democracy is reduced to shows that seeks to ensnare humans into voters, consumers and followers connecting the basest and crudest expressions. It is as if humanity has been stalled and wrenched to its primitive references. Charlatans with expertise to tap basest instincts use strategies of market to manipulate narrations of exceptionalism. They present grander world using the semantics and opportunistic concerns of religion -easily tapping into centuries of subconscious memories of control. Critical issues are turned into binaries of religion using ruse of market. Every human concern is reduced to show, scripted to excite and evaluated on scale of entertainment. US has become a TV show gone rogue. It's riveting but tragic. People are kept entertained until they get killed. All progressive values -achieved through centuries of struggle and consolidation, and evolved thoughts and means are reduced to sideshow.        

Cocktail of capitalism driven market and religion are creating havoc on earth. It is apparent through degradation of democratic institutions and promotion of wanton consumerism -that is least concerned about life sustaining nature and biodiversity. Self-perpetuating systems controlled by few that care about itself than any human welfare or greater good. This is quite apparent in US. Leaders are controlled by the systems. They are incapacitated while people are executed wantonly with desultorily ease that even question the idea of a nation state. These sacrificial rituals of fatal flaws should shudder human conscience. Flaws that facilitate innocent children and ordinary people -especially marginalized and racially discriminated, to be massacred. Most grievously it has incapacitated sane people to respond to their innate humanity or even react to their basic instinct and primal know. Flawed US that is spiraling into abyss is a lesson for humanity. Its a pity, it had so much potential.        

   

Biodiversity Day

The gracious heart of hummingbird

Stills itself to measure

Life on its thread feet  

There are instances when soul is sheared

And exposed to elements

Opens to deep space of galaxies

Frozen time as if on an apogee

Of momentary stillness on a swing before it slips

Glimpse of all that vastness

As if life is time itself

Churning all the moments 

Hell on track

 

Few days back I was travelling in train along Tamil Nadu -the temperature was hovering at +40degrees. The pantry car in the train was preparing lunch and the temperature could be easily 50degrees as the metal coaches chugged through heat wave. The contrast was acute as I moved from ac coach to pantry, and felt quite dizzy as the temperate rocketed by 30odd degrees in an instant. That human beings are exposed to these miserable conditions is beyond me. It is also quite unhygienic (I don’t blame these half naked men stirring the boiling pot, they are trying their best in the limited sweaty space with limited resources, and to prepare decent food for hundreds of people in running train is no mean task. I quite admire them).

What is the need to prepare food in running train? Why cannot they do like Shatabdi trains and get food delivered from railway stations -they can even order from grassroot level organizations like Kudumbashree (women run community kitchen-hotels, an initiative started by Communist govt in Kerala 25years back, a success story in empowering women so much so they are being elected into democratic institutions. A Grassroot level empowerment that needs to be studied and emulated). It’s amazing that when human beings are put into horrendous situation, and are displayed in hundreds of trains crisscrossing through hot terrain as the temperature skyrockets, nobody seems to be bothered. What will it take them to realize that something is seriously amiss and that there are human beings who are facing hell like situation. Or is it a lesson on fate and blessing?    

Between the chaos

Between the chaos 

Strands from unknown cosmos 

Strands from unknowable realities of quantum

Knit the improbable rise of billions of atoms

Jumping protons and uncertain electrons

Spinning and jiggling into shapes

Ethereal waves of photons orchestrate a symphony

The murmuration of matter

Prodding the potential of reality

Synapses collectively sense all at once 

The consciousness

Cradled preciously in Space Time hammock.   

 

Noise of the matter

 Common people shouldn’t be bothered by snarling Castetva cannibals and Hindutva hooligans nor the angst of monster mullah. These are posturing for gravy, the cosmic itch to play savior as ordained by otherworldly connections. They must go by the issue at hand and whether unfolding events helping them live a better life. These fake binaries are created by manipulative controllers for their ease and signs of proprietorship over common people.

The attempts to remove loudspeakers from religious spaces is a much welcomed step that is long overdue. SC guidelines are outdated, new laws must be framed and strictly applied. All loudspeakers from public places must be removed. Loudspeakers can only be allowed in closed enclosures, auditoriums so on that doesn’t create problem for people and shouldn’t exceed 50db. Loud noise, particularly in congested densely populated places, are serious source of misery. It also harms other species too. Already there is too much noise from vehicular traffic and various celebrations of inconsiderate primitives. CPCB report points that many cities in India have more than 80db noise level (Moradabad in UP is the second most noisiest city in the world according to UNEP 2022 report with a noise pollution level of whooping 114db). Entitled inbred mediocre elite ensconced in squatter’s value system cannot really understand, indeed not really bothered -since this is another fertile source to showcase matters of blessing and fate. Lutyen’s delhi nor posh colonies across the country face noise problems hence they weren’t really bothered for decades as noise reached levels that harmed and gradually take lives of people only a few kilometers from where these saviors squat. As expected, there are no data on how many millions die due to noise induced illness. Meanwhile they claimed largesse of mind and posed as empathy driven souls tolerant to anything as long as it doesn't directly affect them. While depraved marketeers try to capitalize. They made louder shriller gadgets (even claiming through a white man in an advertisement that Indians are noisy lot hence deserve the loudest! Such temerity of louts). Even now conniving caste cannibal controlled media playing liberal reports how temple in some place switched off their loudspeakers for mosque loudspeaker during festival. This we are informed -in their entitled role as castetva herd controllers, as how secularism and syncretic culture works that Hindutva needs to learn. How these loud noises affect common people is not their concern and can never be. When you assume proprietorship control common people are always disposable for bigger narration.

A primitive society will find difficulty to accommodate latest technology since these didn’t develop organically into the society. These were byproduct of much open and enquiry driven spaces, an outcome of critical thinking that were nurtured. These are thresholds of society that had creative liberal values spread all across the spectrum. Overwhelming number of people across the world are still cave dwellers piggyback riding best of humanity. Social media is only accentuating what is innate. These are having debilitating impact on the world. BigTechs will have to take the responsibility, their primal urge to accrue money and power must be contained. Platform Accountability and Transparency Act is valiant attempt by US government. Algorithm must be opened for scrutiny by experts to trace manipulation so as to initiate stringent action. Meanwhile education system will have to focus on critical thinking and values of understanding, and strive to create more evaluation free zones to nurture free minds. Grading children and gauging education as means to multiply money leads to narrow limited views of life, it favors pecking order mindset (the reason why hierarchy driven primitive societies fails miserably to contribute to humanity except as status quoist money multipliers) that easily falls for authoritarian mindsets.           

Face the heat

 

Climate vulnerable Indian subcontinent that is home to millions of extremely poor and exploited people is facing the heat wave. It’s acute in big cities where millions live in congested concrete dwellings that faces the brunt of heat island effect and pollution. These are spaces that have been stripped clear of trees and vegetations while water bodies converted to disease spreading sewage for development. Very soon climate change will have to be declared as health emergency. Migration, exposed to extreme weather, malnutrition…will have devastating effect. There is a need for climate emergency cell to coordinate relief measures. Any concerned society would be investing on climate adaptive measures to save lives and salvage nature.

Earlier this month I was in Nagpur. Temperature crossed 42 degrees centigrade. Nagpur faces extreme heat but it rarely happens so early in the summer, elderly shopkeeper I was interacting with concurred and was sensing changes that he couldn’t comprehend. Even on morning walk I felt the sun as if it was scorching midnoon. You don’t see too many people on streets, mostly airconditioned cars whizzing past. Its like you are in some desert. I saw this man (pic herein) much earlier in the morning vigorously trying to wind up his chores before the heat picks up. He swept the dust off the concrete fragments of what was supposed to be a footpath. A meaningless task that he carried with Sisyphean enthusiasm. Why would you clean dust while contributing to particulate matter in the process making matter worse? I have seen these kinds of “cleanliness” in cities that defeats any logical reasoning. It’s an extension of value system of a society that obsessively delves in stupidities of purity lacking even basic understanding of hygiene. It’s the confluence of racist victorian tidiness and caste cannibals limited intellect that is exhibited into public space as revered ritual. Meanwhile mostly corrupt and mediocre decision makers are busy showcasing their blessing and lessons on fate for common people to emulate into painful absurdities denying life. The only cleanliness that matters is picking up and collecting plastics for recycle. Let the fallen dry leaves be. Let the dust be. Please do not give lessons on existentialism as fate. Ridiculous ironies will excite fattened fluffs in West to settle cozily into the narration of exotic Indian's otherworldly mystical mirth hence value their patronizing potential. Plastic pollution is a serious matter.                       

Threat to democracy

 

Democracy is the best form of arbitration. It hinges on evolved human beings for progressive society that values liberal ideas and expressions to associate and explore. For human beings to evolve education -that emphasis on critical thinking and logical analysis while nurturing creative minds spiritually involved with nature and life as a part of living system, becomes the lynchpin. A society that invests on these will naturally attune to better world.        

Anything that infringe on humanity is a threat to democracy. Anything that prevents assertion of being a human is a threat to free world. Religion therefore becomes a threat to democracy and all the evolved values and possibilities herein. The reason why some societies fail to nurture democratic values and ideals and are incapable to value individual liberty and equality is due to pernicious presence of feudal norms, patriarchy mindset and an incapacity to optimally use wondrous faculties of brain and senses. It is clear that religion creates frameworks that impede into progressive ideas. There is a valiant attempt to pose better version of religion to contrast the worst version in an attempt to wrest narration of religion into progressive space. Though noble it’s a futile attempt. It may help to control the herd into lull than fractious mob but its short term. Life has to be alive to thrive. Anachronistic religions have become serious threat to humanity hold ever minuscule chance of redemption. It’s a decaying premise. It’s an assault on human mind and demeaning billions of years of evolution of life to accept the ridiculous premise of religion and pose as progressive. It makes the best of intention hypocritical, and threatening.    

Butchery of Bucha

 There is enough evidence of crime against humanity, and nature. That this wanton massacre is happening in 2022 to a democratic and non aggressive nation shows gravity of human predicament. Meanwhile climate collapse and incapacitated greedy ego driven humans are scripting catastrophe.  

Support SriLanka

 

 We must make every effort to support SriLanka. The corrupt incompetent elite have created such a situation. This country was recovering from decades of mayhem. If Indian government creates fund for SriLanka we would like to contribute.

Comrade morons

 

The arrogance of communists in India is typical of the society we live in. On the one hand they profess the voice of downtrodden while on the other reflect deep flaws of the primitive society. It’s the template of crawling for the people more powerful simultaneously brutalizing people who are below in power matrix or are powerless and vulnerable. Hierarchal mindset that elaborates blessing. Recall when Pranab poured milk, he was consolidating expected behavior from those who are to serve him (though the man is dead but it's very important to know him to understand the degradation, he did immense damage. When i saw him twice or rather blocked me twice, incidentally as President, he was rushing to temples. He could have used his time and money invested in him to visit local school or nearby tribal settlement or even the wildlife sanctuary but he chose none). Being a President, it was simultaneously a lesson on fate to common people in a corrupt and nepotism driven society: useless people like us could reach to most powerful positions is because of the rituals we perform and the temples we visit. He was elucidating template for good fortune and ways to work on fate (hence the stampede by herds on auspicious days to temples of powerful gods, and ensuing histrionics as rituals). He was cunning to use his position nurtured by castetva forces (that severely degraded democratic institutions as also the society by undermining egalitarian humanist traditions). While most castetva leaders leapfrogged from sanctum vacuum into positions of power through camaraderie and nepotistic connections meanwhile nurturing the herds into deeper muck. They shifted their sycophantic value systems and hierarchal minds from sanctum to family, the Gandhi family, who became their new favorite god -ishta devtha, all the skills of pleasing were updated for this reality. Lacking any mass base or discernable skills they cultivated manipulators and fixers around the power centers to create perceptions, exaggerate self, while pleasing the family. Meanwhile likes of Pranab though gained from sycophancy worked their powerbase through temple hopping and creating alliance of camaraderie with squatters. Squatters had immense clout as faith hawkers and a lethal grip over hapless herds as they dangled fate and after life visions, they extended their clout over local feudal forces and nepotistic connection with power. The reason why Pranab was able to challenge the family was because he assiduously built these bases while also creating crony capitalist circle of influence. He was a astute player in a flawed society. The influential castetva media were fed and fattened -given access, awards and positions -it’s the same that now whine in desperation for imagined values. Hence Pranab was narrated and drummed as the “best PM we never had” while jittered family and cronies tried to placate him with President’s post. The powerful base he created through decades of manipulation was such that he became a go between gaining Hindutva and loosing Castetva and was even seen a PM candidate in case of hung parliament. His value for Hindutva, and their desperate need to get his clout, could be gauged from the fact that Hindutva decided to bestow highest civilian award -Bharat Ratna, on him over likes of Advani -who essentially played a pivotal role in its growth. Such is the way these people work, and this is what I was witnessing when I decide to focus my attention, and yes wasted my time and energy but insights need to be documented. It's a unique position and a rare opportunity. There is a reason why India languishes at the bottom of all international indices and humanitarian concerns as the manipulators created their narration that pushed most people out from ambit of concern.  

Communists come from the same stock and now they decide (in TN) that they need to participate in temple histrionics to influence herds as an antidote to rising Hindutva. The vicious Castetva forces controlling media is fueling the narration of neglecting caste and other herd faith muck as the reason for loss of traction. These are the same that cannibalized the society, stripping it of egalitarian movements and vibrant humanitarian participation -the anti-caste movements and anti-superstition values that seek humans from herds. They conveniently undermine that DMK won thumping majority on Dravidian movement values that attempted squatter free temples -making it open position not based on caste, removing caste names from streets (the braying singer nurtured by castetva posing as high end savior felt the heat) and other egalitarian measures that defined their anti-caste foundation of humanist concerns. Castetva forces degraded TN in the last many decades and have created putrefying caste pits by emboldening likes of CR -this corrupt caste lout did immense damage as he was recruited for the job through nepotistic connections. Communists never got any traction in TN because they were arrogant squatter ensconced (imagine devious Kasturi&Sons as comrades! The reason why there is trust deficit) and couldn’t understand the reality and struggle of common people. They created a mirage through colonial literate Bengalis but got wiped out at sudden hint of reality. It’s better for comrades to join Hindutva than creating another ruse and become a joke. The shift in ideology is always easy since it lacks any involvement with reality or empathetic concerns. There are many in Kerala who have shifted from red to saffron in blink of eye. As Hindutva gains grounds and reaches a threshold gravy you will see mass movement of worms. Communism is important because it gives significant insights into society. It helps critically scrutinize capitalism. They are good opposition to herd controlling systems, and helps develop insight. But they are never good at controlling power since they slip into authoritarianism. Socialism as political power is better placed to work through democracy into egalitarian values.   

Comrade rot is precisely what is happening in Kerala. Comrade morons have got power in their head after they won unprecedented second term despite serious allegations of corruptions. People really don’t prefer salivating infighting castetva congress -these feudals are mostly default option due to politics at the national level.  As is the case comrades too come from degraded putrefying society hence unbridled power are seen as sign of blessing and god given authority over beleaguered people hence this easy shift to authoritarian context. Densely populated, environmentally and geographically fragile Kerala is highly vulnerable to climate change, and recent events have shown its precarious position and glimpse of things to come. The herds are blissfully incapacitated in their ego driven consumerist holes of wholesome entertainments. Comrades were expected to show some concern but comrade morons too are incapacitated as they belligerently push for misguided k-rail project -that is set to connect the state and reduce time for travel. Already this route has railway connectivity this project is set to reduce time by few hours. Couldn't they have worked to improve the existing connectivity? Also, what are people going to do with these few hours gained? Consider that world is now much connected hence physical travelling may not be that important in most cases. They though insist on the project -it has become a case of fragile egos of comrades, even after massive protest that is gaining momentum. Characteristically it is confined to as social issue whereas the environmental ramification -that is significant, is kept as minor matter. The same energy and time could be used to massively invest in adaptive technologies and measures against climate change. 

The coastal areas of this narrow strip of land are going to face the onslaught. This is the land crisscrossed with rivers and lakes and is vulnerable to cyclones and floods, and landslides from forest stripped hills. This region was provided with nature’s bounty hence relative stability and peace but unfortunately primitive society created the worst of humans. Arrogantly complacent putrefying pit is set to face cataclysmic events. 

Crass comrades: They called for two days all India general strike. Nobody in India were much bothered except Kerala where it was complete lockdown since it was supported by communist state government. They threatened people who tried to open the shop (in my neighborhood where the fellow had opened the milk shop, since it is an essential commodity, they threatened him not to sell flavored milk. Such is the bullying by comrades. All for people’s sake!) and thrashed people who took out vehicle. Hapless people who had started to come out of pandemic were left to fetch for themselves for 48hours. Why is this kind of hooliganism allowed? It is a failure of a political party if they give misery to common people to make a point. Yes, capitalistic forces are trying to undermine unions and creating situations to exploit workers. Millions of youngsters (mostly from poor vulnerable sections) are in gig economy without any safety nets and are exposed to exploitations. Government has not created any regulatory mechanism or safeguards. Why are these not taken on priority basis? Yes, protest is important and comrades have got the ideas right but they must find some other method that is democratic and doesn’t impinge on basic right to livelihood. Judiciary must intervene and pass strict orders on these matters. Comrades can easily shift to authoritarianism if not kept in check.

In the evening walk I saw this crass display (while people were bundled up at home and daily wagers struggling) comrades were enjoying crude loud song at public space while a young girl performed what cannot be called a dance. The crassness of it. This society will find the lowest denominator of everything. Pity this society.

Misery driven agendas

 

Religion supremacists, bullies and thugs posturing for religions cannot and shouldn’t be allowed to dictate agendas. Herds as carrier of religions are given rights under democracy -which is essentially and ideally meant to give voice to humans in a participative form of governance with egalitarian intent. There are sinister forces at work. India has seen rapid communalization. It is but expected when religions are given preference over humanity and egalitarian values while worst kind of people churn degrading systems for personal gains and posturing. Unlike human being herds are easiest to deal and exploit. Instead of easing out of regressive anachronistic nuisance into universal humane concerns through awareness and immense possibilities of modern world, rabid forms of religions are spreading that seeks references from primitive past. Not at all surprising considering religions offers nothing, not even solace of existence, but mirage of grandeur as it is incapable to factor in complexities of contemporary world. It is stuck in time warp hence offer prescriptive miserable alternative least concerned about vibrant life. It can therefore only produce herds, unthinking minds, and trap dehumanized souls. It’s a failure of education. It’s a failure of society.  

Few incidents from my experience of miserable world that religion creates will help understand the immensity of crass world in an exceptionally crude society like India (one could have easily accept this as reality, and be an enthusiastic herd, but when one reads evolved thoughts and watch nuanced expressions and understandings, as also societies/individuals that value primacy of humane values, you become aware of the crude construct of reality and easily locate the arbitrators) while wile people pose as saviors. I recall as a kid when we went to Bombay (it was known as Bombay during 1980s) roads were blocked and we were asked to take a detour, it was told to us that roads are being used for Friday prayers that spilled from local mosque. The driver told us this happens in all the vicinity of mosques -and there were hundreds and thousands of males, ofcourse women have burden of modesty hence negated in public space. It created big problem for common people- as it is streets are always crowded. Nobody was bothered. These were nurtured by Castetva to showcase secularism and tolerance -clearly at the expense of common people over herds. Few years later Hindutva -through rabid ShivSena, saw the opportunity and start conducting grand maha artis right in the middle of the streets. Now cunning caretakers would argue whether these are “essential part of religion”?! Aren’t these mischievous? As can be observed; concerns of common people and their hardship were never point of reference. Castetva always had proprietorial role over common people, indeed they gained more credence through misery. (This whole narration of “essential part of religion” is mischievous Castetva ploy to gain credibility. The narration must be in the context of democratic egalitarian values and not primacy of religion. We must deny even if it is “essential part of religion”. We must protect democratic ideals and rights of common people over degrading powerful systems that seeks to trap). So, there were communal riots many common people got caught in the wrong place and were duly sacrificed for bigger cause and soon no more streets being used for praying purpose. Roads and streets were to be used as roads and streets and not for herd to congregate. Next incident was when I studying in Kerala. On Fridays we had long afternoon breaks so much so that everybody left making it half day. Now these long breaks were meant for praying time for muslims introduced as a secular masterstroke by wily Castetva congress corrupt temple hopping scoundrel who was ruling the roost. Quite surprisingly Karunakaran used to stay in our neighborhood and we all knew how corrupt and slippery character he was. Through remarkable sleight of debauchery he was also very pious. As college students we didn’t complain. We all went for movies or loitered on the beach or got drunk.

Next incident is from Delhi. I was staying at congested Nizamuddin, predominantly muslim area -as is the character of segregating religion and purity seeking caste cannibals. One day there was some loud hindu religion song from a house nearby -more noise symbolizing festive occasion. AND it went on throughout the night. Very loud. Very crass. Indeed, least concerned about others. It was probably the only hindu house in the locality. I couldn’t sleep. What kind of people would do such a thing? And, this loud Hindu cacophony was constant during my miserable stay in godforsaken place called Delhi. So much so that whenever I shifted to new locality, I made sure there were no temples or open spaces nearby (since it got converted for “function” -ranging from crude birthday parties, despicable marriages and uncouth religious gathering, had enough experience to anticipate). When I was in Bangalore once one of the students came with full face veil (whatever crap they call it) this revolting anti-social dehumanizing blot on humanity was presented in front of me. I was shocked I talked to the senior fellow at the institute expressing my discomfort. He said he understands but ‘we don’t want to create problem’. He was afraid. I too didn’t know what to do? So, ended up tolerating. I think I should have had a choice and the right to deny teaching (or even interacting) with people who aren’t concerned about others, represent worst of systems, and indeed lack basic decency. You can have your religion but cannot bully us and expect everything to be normal. There is a basic code of conduct to be followed when you are a member of society. Full face veil are not acceptable in any civilized society, those who promote these have sinister agenda and are least concerned about common people and their tribulations. I saw these amazingly crude expressions along the north Kerala - Karnataka coastal region during my cycling. Hapless people are being trapped by sinister sunni wahabi/salafi whatever and this in turn is fueling and complementing a rabid revolting form of hinduism (I recall mentioning this in my blog almost a decade back), not that caste cannibals were looking for excuses. While staying in south TN region during my cycle trip I was startled out of my sleep one morning by loudspeakers blaring from three mosques simultaneously in close vicinity.             

Caste cannibals sought redemption through mullah feeding and vicious forms of segregations as they worked into depraved caste diversity and equally impressing compromised West ready to patronize the lowest denominator. Notice whenever they mention about muslims they use stock pictures of full veiled Muslim women as if this is the norm. Cunning Kasturi&Sons expertise in this. It is meant to create negative feeling, and that is how you segregate herd. It is but natural that Hindutva is having it so easy. Also, crucial issues are being sidelined while religion-based rants occupy concerns. Beware of these conniving entitled scoundrels posing as journalists. They have no regard for common people. Even in this “hijab” case -where caste cannibals in media are over working to play savior, notice the picture used is that of full veiled wherein this is not the issue (taken from today’s Indian Express -another high moral posing caste cannibals seeking muslims to play savior). Full veil cannot be allowed in educational institutions nor in public space (you have all the right to use public space the way you want to but such expressions have severe consequences, there is a reason why poorer societies are being trapped by sinister forces to radicalize and segregate).

Quaint culture and expressions are being pushed out by competing forces. This picture here was once quite common in Kerala and still is but increasingly threatened, wherein a small colorful scarf -mostly symbolic than anything else, is being replaced by vicious form of herds. Ideally education institutes should not have any space for expressions of religions but we live in an extremely primitive and dehumanized society. Even egalitarian attempts at gender free uniforms are being questioned by religion supremacists. I think common people must start asserting. We cannot let religion play its sinister game. Also, the credibility of people who are seeking to represent is also questioned. Castetva forces created an ecosystem wherein caste cannibals worked their narrations. These were awarded and offered gravy positions. Those days are over. They don’t represent common people nor can claim to represent. They are standing on foundation of misery and dehumanized value systems. How did these mediocres emerging from putrefying pits acquire the position and clout, and seek to control the narration for common people? A country languishing in the bottom of HDI and in all known calibrations of civilization shouldn’t be allowed to take high moral grounds. Those who are posing as arbitrators -the representors, must be closely scrutinized. They are standing on misery of common people in a deeply flawed society. Caste cannibals have no place in civilized setting.       

Ramukakas of Congress

It's an existential moment for sycophants and freeloaders -the infighting is bitter. Grab and bust scene. Meanwhile as wily Ramukakas abandon the ship Sibal Ramukaka has become a rebel while Aiyer Ramukaka has gone silent. Journalist Ramukakas desperately try to workout some narration to portray as saviors. Ah the angst of feudals.  

Pope must step in

 As politicians and multilateral agencies like UN have failed to bring some sanity Pope seems to be the person who has enough clout, influence and is well placed to intervene. He is non partisan with humane concerns. He must not restrict to tweets and praying. This war is escalating dangerously...PLEASE DO SOMETHING. Meanwhile the world needs concerted efforts to face climate crisis, everyday we are crossing new signs of breakdown.   

UP has gone the Kerala way

 

In the aftermath of emergency in 1970s -when untold atrocities were unleashed on common people while democratic institutions vandalized, Congress lost miserably all over India except in Kerala. Kerala had witnessed vicious form of violence wherein state machinery was used as killing machine by feudal forces accumulating as Castetva congress headed by scoundrel posing as leader -Karunakaran. Communism had worked through literacy to create awareness and was posing as a threat to entrenched feudal values of what was essentially a horrendous society. Kerala was hell hole that needed outside forces like Christianity, Islam and Communism to bring its humane references and enlightened ideas. In the end all these systems though created meaningful impacts and significantly added to the narration but were coopted into putrefying pit. Communism too is now reduced to another laughable ritual but still offers compelling alternative to ever salivating infighting castetva congress.  Literacy was incapable to create humans out of herds. It created stenos with pleasing attributes and duty-bound pious workers who migrate with specific intention to multiply money and establish blessing, now they export semi-literates as engineers, teachers, nurses  while scientists perform experiments as rituals. Meanwhile compelling artform create nostalgia for putrid pit as also norms and values that made literacy meaningless.  

Despite evidences of horrors of emergency (particularly in Kerala where awareness of systems was high) Congress was voted shows that voters were turned into herds, nurtured by cunning Castetva congress. Feudal forces work on creating misery and then capitalize on fear while they cleverly pose as benevolent savior for beleaguered people. Kerala is a lesson for India on the failure of literacy and its incapacity to create education -this gets infected in all forms of collective expressions including democratic institutions, art forms, norms and values. Lacking any egalitarian foundation, the primitiveness is all pervading bringing in lowest denominator of anachronist religions, patriarchal communism and consumerist capitalism. It’s also a lesson on healthy people benefitting from high health indicators/human indices but celebrating sickness of mind. It creates a rotten society that is incapable to value its natural wealth and quaint expressions of verdant nature. It’s a paradox that signals culminating pangs of humanity. Nothing positive is expected.  

Castetva forces has now devolved the society into Hindutva. As mentioned earlier Hindutva is the real deal as it connects to majority of common people in a primal way. If Hindutva were ruling India in the last many decades India would have been in a better position to handle religious extremism and general degradation of society. The narration against state nurtured obscurantist forces would been stronger. Castetva degradation used semantics of modernity to hide their primitiveness thus creating complacency and undermining vibrant humanistic narrations and history. They did immense damage to Indian society. They were posers who were creating liberal narration to please West while they cannibalized. It was all a show that increasingly lost audience as Hindutva gained ground posturing as masculine alternative. Horrible heart wrenching tragedies during pandemic wherein hundreds and thousands died and state government was seen woefully lacking, people lost livelihood and dignity in the process, despite all these they vote for the same government in UP with thumping majority shows that people are being converted to Hindutva herds fed on grandeurs of temples and mythical narrations of invincibility. However, one cannot completely blame Hindutva since Castetva never really invested on primary health centers or any vibrant health or education infrastructure at grassroot level as people suffered. The reason why Hindutva focused on toilets -connected to common people they are aware of how much it impacts and matters than big talks. Castetva forces nurtured caste politics to keep people busy and miserable as also an ecosystem that produced Castetva journalists -mostly leapfrogging from sanctum vacuum as fourth estate arbitrating democracy -which they were woefully incapable of, created narrations of self-indulgence, limited in intellect, lacking any connection with realities and aspirations of common people. Hopefully with Castetva politics Castetva journalists sucking in gravy holes of misery too are evicted.      

The Dalit Sikh bs

Sikhism was a forceful attempt to remove caste and create egalitarian humane society. The primacy of community dining, common surname, as also assertion of shared humanity through prose of enlightened Kabir in sacred holy texts were meant to create awareness against caste cannibalism that had degraded this region. It was also an attempt to create resistance against invaders wherein caste cannibals incapacitated. It was an attempt to face reality. Castetva forces always had problems with Sikhism. Vulgar jokes against sikhs/sardars were normalized into mainstream as bunch of people who were stupid while inbred intellectually challenged Castetva posed as intelligent saviors. Castetva worked with colonizers to bifurcate Punjab and sacred places -they could have easily negotiated for birth place of Guru Nanak. Later the impunity with which Castetva congress created secessionists like Bhindranwale and then attacked most sacred Sikh site -the golden temple, massacre of Sikhs and complete apathy to pursue the culprits meanwhile cunningly orchestrated these under Sikh as President of India -an under qualified sycophantic simpleton who demeaned by proclaiming that he would sweep the street if asked to, all shows arrogant uncouth Castetva policy maker’s disgust for Sikhism and what it stood for. It is in the same narration that they made a “dalit” Sikh CM  -the patronizing attempt here is what makes Castetva congress despicable. Castetva media latched on to create narration of benevolence and diversity -in their self indulgent arrogance they think people are stupid. The audacity of it. To classify a religion that has anti caste in its core. Ofcourse now as any other religion Sikhism too is reduced to a joke of fancy dress and anachronistic nuisance of herds that fattened fluffs in west value as diversity. However hard Hindutva may try it is nurtured with Castetva as reference hence they will inherit the legacy of primitiveness. Unless they make concerted effort to shun. It’s dangerous syndrome. Pranab’s syndrome that degrades as it spreads. It was nurtured by congress as perpetual claim to power.  

You must scrutinize

Located in an overwhelmingly primitive society like India -while Indians have highest estimate of themselves that doesn’t pass any scrutiny on any parameter, it is but natural that education system too is rather shoddy reflecting the limited intellect. Education is about compliance. Youngsters are prepared for exams -as answering machines, the more the marks better the performance, who then are awarded for being successful. These deviant ideas of success and failure gets replicated as the systems that perpetuates these get consolidated. Education is rarely about questioning or exploring new ideas. Since success is about asserting the system -that design these parameters, the successful therefore replicate the system. It’s about status quo. This primitive society would have putrefied in its own muck had it not been the intervention of outside forces. Imagine a society that stands to gain much from marauding invaders and colonizers.

Indians therefore generally work well as status quoists, safe keepers, charming mediators for the system. If ever, it is about safe accretion or else as assurance of everlasting gains. Almost all the CEOs -international or even national -taunted by some as civilizational success, are mostly those who played it well for the system. It’s about working for years within the system to gain confidence, about jockeying for position, about servility – keenly aware of hierarchy and power matrix, about safe bet for the investors. Unless it has exciting new research or vibrant ideas or possibilities I cannot even think of working in a system for more than few months. People who are trained to be successful are most dangerous to humanity. They are infected to do things without worrying about ramification or even the need. They do to gain, to please. This also has essential element of blessing connected to it. Religion therefore deeply entrenches these deviances. Power, money, position, so on becomes essential characteristics of success which then is worked as fortuitous blessing if pleased sufficiently. It’s a degrading loop that has kept this godforsaken wasted society busy. Imagine a religion that instead of opening to immensity of life reduces to binary of success and failure, and then cunningly positions as harbinger of perpetual gain. Imagine the crassness of it, and now imagine the mindsets that emerge from these.

Education is about learning; it’s about knowing and thinking on what you understand. Which in turn helps you to formulate your own ideas, it’s an assertion of your unique presence, this then contributes to evolve humanity. Societies that understand the value of education have produced better humans and have contributed immensely to progress of humanity. They have helped assert values of liberty and consolidate democratic institutions. Herds then appropriate these to misuse, vandalize and degrade into worst possibilities.   

Religion cannot be allowed to be expressed in educational institutions: There is a reason why uniform attire is insisted on in educational institutions. It’s an attempt at providing egalitarian space for children to explore and learn. Hindu bindi, Sikh turban, Muslim hijab…as also caste reference or regressive markers must be removed from child’s name during admission (I recall one class teacher in a school in Sagar -MP, that I studied briefly, made egalitarian attempt to remove caste references in names, it had funny outcomes though when students had similar first names -which is quite common, so we had sunil one, sunil two…Thinking back, this happening in impoverished, mostly illiterate caste exploited hellholes, that too four decades back is amazing. Obviously that remarkable teacher must been dumped. There is a heavy price paid by society to create gandhi) so on has no space in children’s life as a learner. Further, the onus is on humanity to insist on secular progressive space. It also opens up children to the realization that religion is not sacrosanct, and that there are evolved spaces and humane options.  

Ideally religion shouldn’t have any nurturing public space but then we don’t live in ideal place hence we need to tolerate these transgressions -this perversity has no reason to be celebrated as some multicultural expression or diversity. But yes, full face cover is an assault on humanity and a gangrene on soul. In a free society everybody has right but there are consequences too. There is a reason why societies are getting radicalized. Why is that normal people when they migrate to West (specifically UK) become radicalized? (the other day I was listening to ‘indian’ girl from Britain speaking rabid hinduism, eloquently ofcourse -british accent is an advantage in a subcontinent where people are scampering to learn English to showcase their merit). There are also attempts made to normalize religion driven patriarchy. Caste cannibals are using religion fault lines to position themselves as compassionate savior, at international level they pout as liberal (it’s easy to play compromised monarchy patriots looking for something to hinge for redemption). These segregatory values and dehumanization attempts have created untold misery to common people as also diverting from existential problems. Beware of herd controllers they degrade cherished values for immediate gain to position as liberal. They prey to cannibalize soul of humanity.  

Sinister attempt at ridiculous binary to create narration of religion. 

   Why do these people have to write? If they are materially comfortable why cannot they do nothing? This doing something is the biggest scourge of the times we live in. Look at Putin, CocaCola, Shell etc. It's a beggar's mind. I guess, doing nothing requires to be a human. The reason why they nurture systems to convert humans into herds.  The reason why herd controllers write these kind of nonsenses. It is an effort to note how they attempt to wrench the narration. And yes herd enjoy being herd but humanity pays a heavy price. Sisyphus repeated with awareness of the absurdity of existence. Also, what he did was not threatening anyone. It was a symbolism of absurdity of life and motif to find meaning.   

  

It's dreadful

With everyday life in the luxurious complacency of modern gadgets while catastrophic events played as entertaining shows people seems to have lost the sense of dread. Nuclear explosions are real. Radioactivity is dangerous. Aftermath harrowing that will last for many generations. This could easily trigger other life threatening events as we are on the verge of climate collapse. Be afraid. 

Putin threatening with nuclear bombs is a serious transgression and must be included as crime against humanity. While the shelling of Ukraine nuclear powerplant -that is blazing and could explode -the impact we are informed going to be ten times Chernobyl, is another wanton aggression. Meanwhile ICC and ICJ shouldn't be bothered by any jurisdiction. We have well passed all that. What is concern of humanity is concern of international court.
