A Hindu cannot enter a mosque, and a Hindu cannot receive sacramental bread in a church. By that logic, it seems justified if someone demands that only Hindus be allowed into Hindu temples. Point well taken. But then comes the bigger question: Who exactly is a Hindu—an “unadulterated” Hindu? The internet will tell you thatContinue reading “Should Only Hindus Be Allowed Into Hindu Temples?”

What If Non-Veg Laddoo Was Part of Lord Narayana’s Game Plan?
I have huge respect for vegans, vegetarians, and non-vegetarians. After all, we all come from the same singular source—Brahma. Maybe some from His head, some from His chest, some from His stomach, and some from His legs—but still from the same source. The same Almighty puts food on our plates, helps us digest it, andContinue reading “What If Non-Veg Laddoo Was Part of Lord Narayana’s Game Plan?”
What I learnt from a Mumbai underworld gangster
In the late 1990s, I had the opportunity to interview a Mumbai underworld gangster implicated in orchestrating around 22 high-profile murders.

Political conversion Vs Religious conversion
A new political leader comes in. He’s charismatic, speaks a new language of hope, tells the people that the earlier leaders looted them, manipulated them, and kept them backward. The people nod. They believe him. They rally behind him. They vote for him. They put his photo in their homes, share his memes, wear hisContinue reading “Political conversion Vs Religious conversion “
