In todays age of AI, we should think twice before posting anything on Social Media
A single photo or video posted online can reveal far more personal information than you realize
Hackers can collect small clues from social media posts, including street..

Hanuman Ji possesses immense cosmic strength, yet due to a childhood curse by sages, he completely forgets his own capabilities until he is reminded of them in the service of Lord Rama.
The Spiritual Lesson:
This beautifully mirrors the philosophy of bhakti. Hanuman Ji does not carry an ego about his strength. His powers only awaken when they are needed to serve a higher, divine purpose. For him, power without bhakti is meaningless.
Rewriting Destiny via the Ramayana
There is a famous lore where Hanuman Ji began carving his own version of the Ramayana on the rocks of the Himalayas using his fingernails. His version, the Mahanataka, was so structurally perfect and filled with pure, ecstatic devotion that it completely eclipsed the version written by the sage Valmiki.
When Valmiki saw it, he was heartbroken, realizing his beautiful epic would be forgotten. Moving out of pure, selfless love and empathy, Hanuman Ji instantly threw the heavy stone tablets into the ocean to preserve Valmiki's joy.
This shows that to a true bhakta, fame, legacy, and recognition mean absolutely nothing; only the happiness of others and the love for the divine matter.
Perhaps the most visually striking depiction of his devotion is when he tore open his own chest to reveal the images of Rama and Sita residing within his heart. This happened when he was gifted a priceless pearl necklace by Sita, which he began chewing and breaking apart. When questioned why he was destroying such a precious gift, he replied that he was looking inside the pearls to see if they contained Rama's name. When skeptics mocked him, asking if Rama was inside him, he tore open his chest.
The Spiritual Lesson:
This represents Dasya Bhava (the attitude of a servant) taken to its absolute zenith. It implies that Hanuman Ji has no independent identity; his very life force, anatomy, and consciousness are entirely woven from the fabric of his Lord.
He is Higher than the Destination
In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna states that the true devotee eventually merges with the divine. However, Hanuman Ji breaks this mold. He chooses not to merge into liberation (Moksha). He explicitly asks to remain on Earth as a Chiranjeevi (immortal) for as long as the name of Rama is chanted.
For Hanuman Ji, the act of loving and serving God is sweeter than achieving liberation. He chose the journey over the destination, proving that bhakti is not just a means to an end, but the highest end itself.
Jai Hanuman 🙏
Jai Shri Ram 🙏

In my devotional journey I not only nurture my feminine side but I learn how to nurture the masculine too. While talking to my friend who keeps karvachauth since age of 11 we discussed how traditional ways lead to inner freedom. #karvachauch
In this thread I started sharing my devotional journey a few days ago. I cannot help but dance in devotion. That’s my highest point of losing myself completely and dissolving in her.🌺
What is yours?

Over 113 days of protests in Kerala! Teachers are still waiting for appointments, eating grass in protest, and now protest leader S. Valarmathi has shaved her head and begun an indefinite hunger strike💔💔
Yet where are Congress leaders? Where are left-wing voices like Neha Bora and the so-called champions of justice?
Is solidarity selective? Why is everyone silent when Kerala’s teachers are fighting for their future?

In his Pulitzer Prize-finalist book Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives, author Siddharth Kara exposes the severe humanitarian and environmental catastrophe driving the global green energy revolution. The book details how the demand for lithium-ion batteries which power smartphones, laptops, and electric vehicles (EVs) has devastated the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which produces roughly 75% of the world’s cobalt supply.
1. Threats to the People of the Congo
The book paints a harrowing picture of what Kara describes as a modern-day form of slavery and severe corporate predation for profit:
Sub-Human & Dangerous Labor: Over 150,000 "artisanal" miners (including tens of thousands of children as young as six) dig for cobalt manually using basic tools like pickaxes, rebar, or their bare hands.
Fatal Accidental Collapses: Miners operate in deep, hand-dug tunnels lacking ventilation, rock bolts, or safety supports. Tunnel collapses occur frequently, burying workers and children alive.
Severe Toxicity and Health Hazards: Cobalt is toxic to touch and breathe. Because the workers are not provided with protective gear like masks or gloves, they inhale toxic dust daily. This causes severe lung diseases ("hard metal lung disease"), birth defects in newborns, and developmental issues.
Violent Exploitation: Local populations are systematically displaced from their homes as entire towns are bulldozed to clear space for expanding mines. The mines themselves are heavily policed by corrupt armed militias and private security forces.
2. Threats to Planet Earth
Kara challenges the narrative of the "clean, green energy revolution" by demonstrating the immense ecological toll of extracting these minerals:
Mass Deforestation: Huge swathes of the Congo Basin forest the world's second-largest tropical rainforest and a crucial carbon sink for mitigating global climate change are being clear-cut to make way for massive industrial open-pit chasms.
Water and Soil Contamination: Mining operations dump toxic waste and heavy metals into local river systems. This creates heavily polluted waterways where fish cannot survive and the water becomes poisonous to drink.
Air Pollution: The continuous pulverization of earth and constant movement of heavy machinery creates a permanent haze of toxic, metal-laden dust that contaminates the air for miles around the mining epicenters.

Strongly condemn these remarks. Insulting the Hon'ble Prime Minister and his late father is not political courage. It is a shameful and arrogant disregard for public decency and the people’s mandate. It exposes the mind-set of silver-spoon elite that cannot accept a leader who rose through the democratic process and successively earned the mandate of millions.
#WATCH | A ruckus broke out during Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge's address at the 139th birth anniversary celebration of Dr. Shri Krishna Singh in Patna, Bihar
A person present at the event said that PM Modi would not go anywhere, Kharge responded, "Modi ka baap bhi jayega."
