Should we really put the Vedic accent marks? These came much much later, long after the Rig Veda, these are post-Panini, 500 BC afterwards. What is necessary is to go back to the way the Rishis themselves might have recited their compositions. Accent marks force you to read the text in a given fixed manner, given fixed manner, robbing it of the subtleness that can be there depending upon each individual's preparation and perception.
The enunciation carries the weight and consciousness of the reciter. I'll strongly oppose this, putting such marks to the original text. You may like to check my book The First Hymn of Rishi Vamadeva where there is a pretty long discussion about this. Rig Veda must go back to the period of Rig Veda with the intuitive feel for the language. -RYD (Mail group)

Central Univ of Odisha VC Sachidananda Mohanty resigns for personal reasons. He worked with missionary zeal on the university.
A great scholar, educationist and writer, another identity of Dr Mohanty is less known. He is the son of Bidyutprabha Devi, one of the great poets of Odia literature. He 'Khadyotika', which was in our school text remains one of my all time favorites. I can recite it even today It is 'her' Khadyotika

In a little over month, my new book, The Idea of the World, will be finally out! It's been years in the making, and I am confident it won't disappoint. This time, it may really change things... But, for now, let me tease you a bit more with a new essay.

Man possesses a mine of knowledge, abt which he is ignorant. When he cleanses his mind-stuff (chitta) of all past impressions by an intense process of purging, he earns the competence (adhikara) to b able to draw his knowledge from his own infinite reserve

"A capacious, democratic, culturally-enmeshed, and politically-alert tradition grows from the root of Whitman. A spiritually-attuned, perceptually-focused, inward-looking family of poetry flows from Emily Dickinson." —@PoetryInAmerica host Elisa New https://t.co/Acaf3nTCYA
COGNITIVE DISSONANCE: Few persons see all 3: A) Big picture, B) minute details, C) connections among these. But most cant see relationships among: soft power, BIForces, Hinduphobia, atrocity literature, etc. Hence contradiction between jingoism & tamasic lack of specific action

A certain class of minds shrink from aggressiveness as if it were a sin. Their temperament forbids them to feel the delight of battle and they look on what they cannot understand as something monstrous and sinful.

@davidfrawleyved's 1997 call for intellectual or Bauddhik Kshatriyas still resonates: "An intellectual Kshatriya must not merely be defensive but creative and expansive...based upon deep thought [not] mere rhetoric, character assassination, or slogans." https://t.co/Ge4Niwlt7m

What is remarkable is that this call was given by @davidfrawleyved some 22 years back, long before today's activists, who mouth this sort of rhetoric without even mentioning this essay of his, let alone reading it. https://t.co/06PzsDGVBp
Since 2009 when Bhagwat took over the reins of the world’s largest cultural organisation, he has shown that @RSSorg means business. Today, no one can doubt his visionary aspiration, not just for his organisation, but for India that is Bharat.https://t.co/EQyfdbeAij @RatanSharda55
https://t.co/EQyfdbeAij On the eve of his 10 years as Sarsanghachalak @RSSorg, an assessment & appreciation: no one has been as quietly influential & effective as Mohan Bhagwatji. Mainstreaming the RSS & internationalising Hindutva may be summed up as his greatest achievements.
