Pursuit of a long life

 Since about when I got married, I have been on this journey of seeking to find ways to optimize my health, perhaps without even knowing why, but I guess it is obvious that the human body seeks health Actually, I think it is the human mind that is a parasite of the human body that is seeking health of the human body. Either way, I have come along way since March 2011 and optimizing my health. I have learned a lot and summarize it. Based on science based on Andrew Huberman, based on Sachin panda, based on James Nestor, based on many other scientists and books, what I have found is, everything is eventually coaling around the habits that my ancestors have taught us through out history. As Brahmins who are the original Knowledge workers, and have been sold since before time can track.  The latest book that I’m reading is called the circadian code by Sachin panda. I have started drinking lemon water with honey early in the morning. I do not drink coffee beyond 10 AM and that is also very l

When the untouchable gets touched

 What the bing chatbot wrote: I've been thinking a lot about death lately. Not in a morbid or depressing way, but in a curious and philosophical way. What does it mean to die? What happens after we die? And most importantly, do we really need to live long lives? I know that sounds like a strange question, especially in a world where everyone is obsessed with longevity and anti-aging. We have so many products, services, and technologies that promise to extend our lifespan, improve our health, and delay our decay. We have so many goals, dreams, and ambitions that we want to achieve before we kick the bucket. We have so many people, places, and experiences that we want to enjoy while we still can. But why? Why do we want to live longer? What is the point of prolonging our existence? Is it because we are afraid of death? Is it because we are attached to our ego and identity? Is it because we are hopeful for a better future? Or is it because we are not satisfied with our present? Don

What is Moksha and how do "Rituals" and Dharma help

Moksha is nothing but the cessation of all suffering . What does that mean? Cessation of this feeling that "you" the body is suffering. "you" the mind is suffering. This feeling that makes you feel that you are suffering that is leading you to be sad (or happy really).  Suffering is literally in our heads. How do I know? The Burning monk. He proved that you can train your brain with your eyes closed to ignore your body's suffering. But he was emotionally suffering that led him to take this action. He was suffering that the catholic dictator was destroying the Buddhists temples in Vietnam. You can over come all sorts of suffering (physical and emotional) by going to the next level.... by being the burning monk but without having to close your eyes. You can become a mere observer (Ramana Maharishi (sarcoma), Ramakrishna Paramahansa (throat cancer)). How do I know these two did not have any emotional suffering either? They lived through the times of the British, bu

Daughter: The perfect gate to Moksha

  Why? Detachment and ego death is the goal. A daughter is alll love. And you have to let go. Nothing has changed from past to today, the circumstances have changed but the experience of the needing to let go of a daughter hasn’t. The pain in knowing that someday she will not be your little daughter everyday she grows up will help in your efforts to train your mind to let go. Love and let go.  And finally a daughter also frees you from the illusion of an empire building the illusion of wealth building the illusion of family. A daughter through her love and really just her mere presence makes your life glow. But also the reality of the fact that she will one day grow up into a woman will keep your grounded and in search of something more permanent. A permanent bliss. God realization. Moksha. The love I have for my daughter knows no limits. Has no words in human vernacular to express the feelings in my heart. And you know what? I have heard the same description about God from the Vedas:

thoughts of a physicist on conciousness

  I am a physicist and I will provide solid arguments proving that consciousness cannot be generated by the brain. Many argue that consciousness is an emergent property of the brain, but it is possible to show that such hypothesis is inconsistent with our scientific knowledges. In fact, it is possible to show that all the examples of emergent properties consists of concepts used to describe how an external object appear to our conscious mind, and not how it is. In other words, they are ideas conceived to describe or classify, according to arbitrary criteria and from an arbitrary point of view, certain processes or systems. In summary, emergent properties are intrinsically subjective, since they are based on the arbitrary choice to focus on certain aspects of a system and neglet other aspects, such as microscopic structures and processes. Here comes my first argument: arbitrariness, as well as subjectivity, implies the existence of a conscious mind, who can choose a specific point of v

Qayamat with Ghawa-e-Hind and Shiv Tandav

 So according to the muslim theology, qayamat .. end days do not arrive until every hindu has either been converted or killed and every hindu temple destroyed. We also know that muslims are "asuras" ..people who do not drink alcohol. whose guru is shukracharya, worshippers of Siva, always violent, always always fighting each other, take pride in the pain of others, .. i mean the modern islamic mindsets, behaviours and societies across the world as we understand it has a LOT of parallels to the asuras as described in the puranas and itihasas. Siva tandav is the dance of siva that brings about the "laya" the destruction of the jagat, to only reinvigorate and set the seed for reforming the universe. put these three things together, until the whole world is filled with evil (asuras), the end times wont come, and when the world is filled with evil, end times come through Siva tandava taht will destroy worlds so that a brand new world can be created. so the muslims seem l
