Since India’s first general election in 1951–52, the Indian National Congress (INC) came to power repeatedly through one simple fact: democracy. The party fought against rivals, contested fiercely, and won clear majorities. The people of India chose Congress time and again. So why is it often said that India was “under Nehru’s dynasty”? This isContinue reading “India, Nehru, and the “Dynasty” Perception: A Democratic Paradox”

Selective Memory: Why Indians Only Remember Mughal Conversions
History, when narrated selectively, becomes propaganda. India is a classic example of this. Today, many Indians are taught to remember only one chapter of religious persecution—that of the Mughals converting Hindus to Islam. But the uncomfortable truth is that violence, coercion, and forced conversions have existed within Hindu society long before the arrival of theContinue reading “Selective Memory: Why Indians Only Remember Mughal Conversions”
Hindu Philosophy vs. Political Hinduism
The RSS and BJP are on a mission: to turn Hinduism into something it never was—a religion that mimics Islam and Christianity. They want commandments, prohibitions, and uniformity. Unfortunately for them, Hinduism is not a religion of rules. It is a philosophy, a way of living that thrived precisely because it refused to be boxedContinue reading “Hindu Philosophy vs. Political Hinduism”
From Toys to Truth: The Stages of Spiritual Growth
A child begins life by playing with toys. This is natural, even necessary. Toys help the child learn motor skills, imagination, and social behavior. But if the same child continues to play with toys forever, refusing to outgrow them, we would recognize it as a problem. Childhood is meant to mature into adulthood, and toysContinue reading “From Toys to Truth: The Stages of Spiritual Growth”
Karma in the Modern World: When Hatred Comes Full Circle
In Hindu philosophy, karma is the law of cause and effect—what you sow, you eventually reap. In today’s globalized world, this law doesn’t need divine intervention; it works through politics, economics, and international relations. Take India’s current climate. In recent years, Hindu–Muslim hostility has been normalized through speeches, laws, and daily rhetoric. The assumption isContinue reading “Karma in the Modern World: When Hatred Comes Full Circle”
The Myth of India’s Obsession with Astrology
We keep hearing it: “90% of Indians believe in astrology.” It’s a convenient stereotype repeated so often that people take it as truth. But after practicing astrology professionally for over two decades, let me tell you something that might shock you—90% of Indians don’t believe in astrology. Yes, you read that right. Only about 10% truly believeContinue reading “The Myth of India’s Obsession with Astrology”
Why Does an Indian Work Harder Abroad Than at Home?
An Indian who lands in a foreign nation suddenly transforms. He becomes faster, sharper, more disciplined, and strangely—more honest. The same man who would have casually bribed a traffic cop in India stands in line abroad without breaking a single rule. Why is this? Did his DNA change on the flight? No. The difference isContinue reading “Why Does an Indian Work Harder Abroad Than at Home?”
Why I Eat Meat
God created the world—animals, humans, and all the food they would need to survive. Yet, no God has ever descended to dictate what anyone should eat. No divine whisper has ever promised heaven for one kind of diet and damnation for another. For animals, God gave instinct. He blessed lions with the desire for meatContinue reading “Why I Eat Meat”

From Summer Habit to Global Freedom: A European Export
For nine long months, Europeans live wrapped up in wool and fur, layered like onions to survive their unforgiving winters. Hats, gloves, scarves—the full armor. Then, for a brief three-month summer when the temperature hesitates around 19 or 20 degrees, the same people shed it all and bare their skin to the sun. Perfectly natural—theyContinue reading “From Summer Habit to Global Freedom: A European Export”
