The different reactions of Hindus and Muslims to Western education led to uneven development of the two communities in modern times. The impact of English education produced a new awakening among the Hindu youth and heralded the ...

#_Sabarimala_ | #PramodPathak : Social movements have been successful in changing many archaic beliefs in the past like Sati or human sacrifice. But it was more a process of attitudinal change & opinion creation rather than being just mandated by law. https://t.co/hvw55VPgYI https://t.co/Jo4GVFsFvb

@SGurumurthy : Even 2day, we suffer from hangovers of colonisation. The colonisers feel guilty abt colonisation. But, the colonised people r not feeling sad that they were colonised. They revel in things which colonisers left. It is paradoxical phenomenon

In this episode of The Hidden Brain, Shankar Vedantam explores the "nature vs nurture" when it comes to gender. "It turns out the contention that genes and prenatal testosterone don't matter is as simplistic as saying they explain everything." https://t.co/bBh3mlZxwH

When you hear 'gender', what do think it is? A biological state? A social construct? Something that's fixed? Something that's fluid? Considering how important a part of our identities gender is, you'd think there'd be some consensus on what it is, right? But no.
It's difficult to explain just how normal we think it is for women to be as close to invisible as possible. And for many, it's not just in public spaces that women must shrink. Have you heard Lily Myers's Shrinking Women? (Gives me goosebumps) https://t.co/etRzEitSuH https://t.co/PZrJJSWsiN

I have spoken about this with male friends over and over. Luckily, some of them have put themselves in my place and seen how something as simple as walking down a street can be outright terrifying for a woman. It's like we are taught to shrink all the time.

There is a Linda Sarsour and there is a Lakshmi Tripathy and there is a difference in where they stand on the inter-sectional acceptability ladder.
This is why it is better to be your own woman, have your own label and speak your own truth. However inconvenient it is to others.

The story of technological progress is a story of continued betrayal of mankind. Consciously avoiding directions that will reduce the pain of people (and of nature overall), but force-fitting the technology into the same old market mechanisms which are the root cause of all pain.

It is a popular belief that the Ramayana is idealistic, while the Mahabharata is realistic. Yet these two epics have identical building blocks, identical themes, and identical history.

One has to always be wary of any kind of stereotyping, however what you say has shades of truth. A good place to start, albeit from a Judeo-Christian-Western tinged point of view, is this 28 year old article by Bernard Lewis "The Roots of Muslim Rage" https://t.co/vnxT0Bfu2B https://t.co/sWDNhrY12R

New blog post: on Lisa Adkins' important new book, THE TIME OF MONEY: https://t.co/4kwlQidd5v
https://twitter.com/shaviro/status/1043275999922868232?s=19
The basic argument of the book is that speculative financial operations are central to social life and experience today. Capitalism has moved from an extractive regime (generating surplus from exploiting labor) to a speculative regime (generating surplus from speculative financial transactions). In this way, finance is in no sense superstructural or extrinsic to the “real economy”; rather, it directly and entirely makes over the entire realm of the social. And in particular, financial speculation makes over our concept and experience of time.
Nothing is more rhizomatic than contemporary finance capital, and nothing is more exploitative.

Interesting new research about climatic changes that ended Harappan civilisation - the summer monsoons weakened sharply but the winter monsoon strengthened (although not enough to compensate). This has interesting cultural implications 1/n

Hi OpIndia readers. We have an important announcement to make and we seek your support in our new journey https://t.co/KmSOCHM44A
Digital news industry is in a flux, with the very basic business model of journalism itself under strain. When even big brands are finding it challenging to find the right business model, how could OpIndia survive? Such questions did scare us, however, we were too emotionally invested not to try.
The story behind the deity of #Sabarimala is definitely the creation of a talented poet of yore like Sophocles. [Freud misread Oedipus Rex—which does not illustrate the Oedipus complex— and distorted its meaning to suit his theoretical preconceptions.] https://t.co/aTCV9Qqees

Three lessons on Siddhi Day:
1. Sri Aurobindo is the topmost authority on Indian religion and tradition.
2. Sanskrit texts need to be understood in the light of his interpretations.
3. Evolution towards a global consciousness warrants shedding antipathy towards foreign cultures.

A gap of a century between the launch of Brahmo Samaj on 20 August 1828 and formal establishment of Sri Aurobindo Ashram on 24 November 1926 following Siddhi attained by #SriAurobindo, which witnessed wide ranging intellectual churning. Can't be steamrolled under Hindu narrative.

Leftists are an influential moral voice in politics but their perspective on violence is ambivalence. Congress chained to Dynasty similarly is antithesis of Democracy. BJP is evolving but can't be free from RSS clutch. So no prospect of a decent choice with freedom and fair play.

From Morse code to Mars Science probes matter. Economics tells us about patterns buttressing fatalism. Hindutva harks back to the past signalling regression. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are the only teachers who talk about future possibilities by transcending present imperfections
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1066589280858849282?s=19
Textbook ethical positions vis-à-vis politics seem absurd considering how much manipulation and malpractice are rampant. But The Mother & Sri Aurobindo invoke Vedic virtues to assure that those refined qualities are a reality and can be attained by individuals who seek sincerely.
