Navigating Grief, Leadership, and Global Opportunity: Strategic Insights from Carl ManlanIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Carl Manlan, a prolific Author and the Head of Partnerships and Business Development at AGRA. Their wide-ranging conversation delved into the profound intersection of personal loss, empathetic leadership, and the immense economic potential within African markets. Carl, who also co-hosts the Inside the Blueprint Podcast with his daughter, shares how his poetry collection, I Can Breathe, serves as a vessel for processing grief and transforming it into a leadership strength. This episode provides a masterclass for executives and founders on how to cultivate more humane, resilient workplaces while staying attuned to the intergenerational shifts shaping the future of global business.From Personal Reflection to Empathetic Organizational DesignThe modern executive often operates at a pace that leaves little room for the "inner work" required to lead with true empathy. Carl Manlan advocates for a radical return to self-reflection, citing his own practice of a 120-day writing course as the foundation for his professional clarity. By dedicating time to pause and reconnect with formative experiences, leaders can dismantle the stoic barriers that often hinder authentic connection with their teams. This process isn't merely therapeutic; it is a strategic alignment tool that allows a leader to recognize that their employees are whole people who carry invisible burdens—including grief—into the workspace every day.Creating an empathetic work environment requires moving beyond performative sympathy toward structural support. Carl emphasizes that grief is a manifestation of love and a universal human experience that doesn't simply vanish at the office door. Leaders must normalize conversations around mental well-being and loss, providing "space rather than just sympathy." This means building flexibility into operational workflows and fostering a culture where vulnerability is modeled from the top down. When a leader acknowledges their own humanity, it gives the entire organization permission to be resilient, ultimately reducing burnout and increasing long-term employee engagement.Furthermore, the conversation highlighted the necessity of intergenerational dialogue in future-proofing an organization's culture. Through his work with his daughter, Carl demonstrates that the next generation of innovators—particularly in emerging markets like Africa—view the world through a lens of digital fluency and social impact. For businesses looking to tap into the "Africa that exists"—a continent of 1.4 billion people driven by youth and entrepreneurship—the approach must be one of partnership rather than paternalism. By bridging the gap between established leadership wisdom and the fresh curiosity of the youth, organizations can unlock new narratives of hope, healing, and unprecedented economic opportunity.About Carl ManlanCarl Manlan is a celebrated Author, poet, and international development professional. As the Head of Partnerships at AGRA, he works at the nexus of agriculture, finance, and economic transformation in Africa. He is the author of the moving poetry collection I Can Breathe and a dedicated advocate for mental health and intergenerational mentorship.About Carl Manlan OfficialCarl Manlan's official platform serves as a hub for his creative and professional endeavors. It features his published works, including I Can Breathe, and provides resources for those interested in the Inside the Blueprint Podcast. The platform emphasizes the power of storytelling to bridge cultural and generational divides, fostering global conversations on leadership and resilience.Links Mentioned in This Episode:Carl Manlan Official WebsiteCarl Manlan on LinkedInKey Episode HighlightsThe 120-Day Reflection: How a structured daily writing habit can sharpen executive decision-making and emotional intelligence.Grief as a Leadership Asset: Transforming personal loss into a catalyst for building high-trust, empathetic organizational cultures.The "Africa That Exists": Moving beyond risk-aversion to identify high-growth opportunities in African agriculture and tech-enabled entrepreneurship.Intergenerational Synergy: Lessons from co-hosting a podcast with a 13-year-old on how to mentor and learn from Gen Z.The Metaphor of Breath: Using poetry as a practical tool for healing and maintaining professional momentum during seasons of adversity.ConclusionCarl Manlan's insights remind us that the most effective leaders are those who stay connected to their own humanity.

Transcript:Hi: ताज महल का सियाहाना कोई साधारण अनुभव नहीं होता।En: Visiting the Taj Mahal is not an ordinary experience.Hi: यह बस एक सुंदर संगमरमर की इमारत नहीं है, बल्कि यह प्रेम और शिल्पकला का अद्वितीय उदाहरण है जो सदियों से लोगों को आकर्षित कर रहा है।En: It is not just a beautiful marble building, but an extraordinary example of love and craftsmanship that has been attracting people for centuries.Hi: एक साफ-सुथरी सर्दी की सुबह थी।En: It was a clear and crisp winter morning.Hi: ताज महल की सफेद चमचमाती दीवारें धूप में झिलमिला रही थीं।En: The white, shimmering walls of the Taj Mahal were glistening in the sunlight.Hi: यमुना नदी के शांत पानी के करीब आगरा का मौसम शांत और सुखद था।En: The weather in Agra was calm and pleasant, near the tranquil waters of the Yamuna River.Hi: आज का दिन खास था, क्योंकि पहली बार इतिहास के दीवाने आरव इस अद्भुत जगह के दर्शन करने पहुँचे थे।En: Today was a special day because, for the first time, history enthusiast Arav had come to see this amazing place.Hi: आरव एक हंसमुख और जिज्ञासु व्यक्ति था।En: Arav was a cheerful and curious person.Hi: उसके चेहरे पर ताज महल को देखने का उत्साह साफ झलक रहा था।En: The excitement of seeing the Taj Mahal was clearly reflected on his face.Hi: साथ में थी मीरा, एक अनुभवी स्थानीय गाइड।En: Accompanying him was Mira, an experienced local guide.Hi: मीरा के पास ताज महल की हर छोटी-बड़ी जानकारी थी।En: Mira had detailed knowledge of every little detail about the Taj Mahal.Hi: वे ताज महल की खूबसूरती देख रहे थे।En: They were admiring the beauty of the Taj Mahal.Hi: आरव ने एक-एक कहानी सुनी, जो मीरा ने उसे बताई।En: Arav listened to each story that Mira told him.Hi: "यहां शाहजहाँ और मुमताज की प्रेम कहानी सदियों से जीवित है," मीरा ने मुस्कुराते हुए कहा।En: "Here, the love story of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz has lived on for centuries," Mira said with a smile.Hi: लेकिन, कुछ देर घूमने के बाद आरव के चेहरे पर झंझलाहट दिखने लगी।En: But after a while of roaming around, a frown appeared on Arav's face.Hi: उसकी चाल धीमी हो गई, और उसके चेहरे का रंग उड़ गया।En: His pace slowed down, and his complexion became pale.Hi: उसे चक्कर आने लगे।En: He started feeling dizzy.Hi: उसने पहले इसे नजरअंदाज किया, सोचते हुए कि यह जल्द ही ठीक हो जाएगा।En: He ignored it at first, thinking it would get better soon.Hi: पर जैसे ही वे मुख्य द्वार के पास पहुँचे, आरव अधिक अस्वस्थ महसूस करने लगा।En: However, as they reached near the main gate, Arav started feeling more unwell.Hi: मीरा ने उसकी हालत देखी और तुरंत पूछा, "आपको ठीक लग रहा है?En: Seeing his condition, Mira quickly asked, "Are you feeling okay?"Hi: " आरव ने पहले हिचकिचाते हुए कहा, "मैं ठीक हूँ," लेकिन हवा में हाथ मारते ही उसकी नजर धुंधली हो गई।En: Arav initially hesitated and said, "I'm fine," but as he waved his hand in the air, his vision became blurry.Hi: कुछ क्षणों में, आरव नीचे गिरने ही वाला था कि मीरा ने उसे तेजी से पकड़ लिया।En: In moments, Arav was about to fall when Mira quickly caught him.Hi: "बैठिए, आरव जी!En: "Sit down, Arav ji!"Hi: " मीरा ने सावधानी से उसे पास की बेंच पर बिठा दिया।En: Mira carefully seated him on a nearby bench.Hi: उसकी आँखों में चिंता थी, पर आवाज में सूझबूझ।En: There was concern in her eyes, but her voice was composed.Hi: "पानी पीजिए," मीरा ने उसे पानी की बोतल दी और धीरे-धीरे उसके माथे पर पानी के छींटे मारे।En: "Drink some water," Mira offered him a bottle of water and gently sprinkled water on his forehead.Hi: आरव ने कुछ मिनटों में संजीदा होकर सिर हिलाया।En: In a few minutes, Arav nodded thoughtfully.Hi: "मुझे समझ में नहीं आ रहा कि अचानक ऐसा क्यों हुआ," उसने कमजोरी भरी आवाज में कहा।En: "I don't understand why this happened suddenly," he said in a weak voice.Hi: मीरा ने उसे एक स्थानीय क्लिनिक ले जाने का सुझाव दिया।En: Mira suggested taking him to a local clinic.Hi: "आपको जल्दी प्रतिक्रिया देखनी चाहिए।En: "You should see a quick response."Hi: "क्लिनिक में, डॉक्टर ने उसे आराम करने की सलाह दी और कुछ दवाइयाँ दी।En: At the clinic, the doctor advised him to rest and provided some medication.Hi: थोड़ी देर बाद, आरव पहले से बेहतर महसूस करने लगा।En: After a while, Arav started feeling better.Hi: जब वे ताज महल लौटे, आरव के दिल में फिर से ऊर्जा थी।En: When they returned to the Taj Mahal, Arav felt energized again.Hi: उसने मीरा को धन्यवाद दिया, "आपकी मदद के बिना, मेरा यहां का अनुभव अधूरा रह जाता।En: He thanked Mira, "Without your help, my experience here would have remained incomplete."Hi: "मीरा ने मुस्कराते हुए कहा, "कभी-कभी, किसी जगह को पूरा अनुभव देने के लिए आपसी सहारा भी जरूरी होता है।En: Mira smiled and said, "Sometimes, mutual support is necessary to fully experience a place."Hi: "अब, आरव ने न केवल ताज महल की भव्यता देखी थी, बल्कि उस प्यारे अनुभव का अर्थ भी समझा।En: Now, Arav had not only witnessed the grandeur of the Taj Mahal, but he also understood the meaning of that lovely experience.Hi: उसने समझा कि कभी-कभी मदद लेना भी हमारी यात्रा का हिस्सा होता है।En: He realized that sometimes accepting help is also a part of our journey.Hi: इस तरह, आरव ने न केवल एक ऐतिहासिक संरचना को देखा, बल्कि उस दिन जीवन के एक महत्वपूर्ण सबक का भी अनुभव किया।En: In this way, Arav not only saw a historical structure, but he also experienced an important life lesson

Riya asked worriedly.Hi: आरव ने अपनी सारी ताकत जुटाकर कहा, "रिया, मुझे इस फोटो को लेना है। सूरज डूबने वाला है।"En: Arav gathered all his strength and said, "Riya, I need to take this photo. The sun is about to set."Hi: रिया ने उसकी हालत को समझते हुए कहा, "अगर तुम ठीक नहीं हो, तो पहले डॉक्टर को दिखाना क्या जरूरी नहीं है?"En: Riya, understanding his condition, said, "Isn't it necessary to see a doctor first if you're not feeling well?"Hi: आरव के चेहरे पर संघर्ष साफ था।En: The struggle on Arav's face was clear.Hi: उसे अपनी सेहत और अपने सपने के बीच निर्णय करना था।En: He had to choose between his health and his dream.Hi: उसने कुछ दीर्घ सांसें लीं और कैमरे को सही किया।En: He took a few deep breaths and adjusted the camera.Hi: रिया ने उसकी मदद की, उसे सहारा दिया और उसे बेंच पर बैठने के लिए कहा।En: Riya helped him, supported him, and asked him to sit on a bench.Hi: "तुम्हारा स्वास्थ्य अधिक महत्वपूर्ण है।"En: "Your health is more important."Hi: सूरज धीरे-धीरे पानी के पास जा रहा था।En: The sun was slowly approaching the water.Hi: आरव ने हिम्मत करके कैमरा उठाया और रिया की सहायता से स्थिर होकर ताजमहल की ओर देखा।En: With courage, Arav picked up the camera and, with Riya's assistance, steadied himself and looked towards the Taj Mahal.Hi: उसने फोकस किया, तस्वीर ली और एक गहरी सांस ली।En: He focused, took the picture, and took a deep breath.Hi: रिया ने मुस्कुराते हुए आरव का हाथ थाम लिया।En: Riya smiled and took Arav's hand.Hi: "चलो अब डॉक्टर के पास चलते हैं।"En: "Let's go to the doctor now."Hi: आरव का चेहरा थोड़ी देर पहले की थकान से अब संतोष में बदल गया था।En: Arav's face transformed from the earlier fatigue to contentment.Hi: दोनों नजदीकी क्लिनिक गए।En: Both went to a nearby clinic.Hi: डॉक्टर ने चेकअप के बाद बताया कि आरव डिहाइड्रेशन और थकान की वजह से चक्कर खा रहा था।En: The doctor, after a checkup, explained that Arav was feeling dizzy due to dehydration and fatigue.Hi: उस दिन के बाद आरव ने एक बात सीखी। सेहत से बड़ा कोई सपना नहीं होता।En: From that day on, Arav learned one thing: no dream is bigger than health.Hi: रिया को भी विश्वास हुआ कि मुश्किल समय में वह सही निर्णय ले सकती है।En: Riya also gained confidence that she could make the right decisions in difficult times.Hi: ताजमहल के आसमान पर धुंधलाती शाम के रंगों में आरव और रिया के जीवन में एक नई सीख का उजाला भी था।En: In the fading colors of the evening sky over the Taj Mahal, there was a new light of learning in Arav and Riya's lives.

Récit de visite au Taj Mahal : le moment où le voyage a vraiment commencéEt si un monument pouvait marquer un basculement dans une vie de voyageurs ?Dans cet épisode, Morgane nous embarque dans un récit de visite au Taj Mahal profondément émouvant, vécu en famille, au tout début d'un tour du monde de 16 mois. Avec son compagnon Pierre et leurs trois enfants – Timothé (16 ans), Robin (13 ans) et Charlotte (7 ans) – ils ont quitté la France fin 2024 pour partir sans date de retour, à la découverte du monde… et d'eux-mêmes.L'Inde est leur deuxième pays. Un choix qui peut surprendre, tant ce pays fascine autant qu'il déstabilise. Bruyante, déroutante, intense, parfois rude, l'Inde les sort immédiatement de leurs repères. Et c'est précisément là que quelque chose se joue.À Agra, la famille découvre le Taj Mahal une première fois, de nuit, à la lueur de la lune, depuis le rooftop de leur guesthouse. Un moment suspendu. Le lendemain, au lever du soleil, le monument mythique se dévoile lentement, derrière les grandes portes, flottant dans la brume matinale. Un choc esthétique et émotionnel, partagé par tous.Dans ce récit de visite du Taj Mahal, Morgane raconte comment ce lieu chargé de symboles est devenu le point de bascule de leur aventure. Celui où ils ont réalisé qu'ils n'étaient plus simplement en voyage, mais réellement partis pour une expérience de vie hors norme.Au-delà du monument, cet épisode explore aussi ce que signifie voyager en Inde en famille, surtout en début de tour du monde : la perte de repères, la nécessité d'accompagner les enfants, l'apprentissage du lâcher-prise et la force du collectif face à l'inconnu.Un épisode inspirant, sincère et puissant, pour tous ceux qui rêvent de voyage au long cours, de transmission, et de moments qui marquent une vie.Retrouvez notre dossier complet pour organiser votre voyage en Inde en famille : https://www.parents-voyageurs.fr/inde/Il y a notamment deux articles pour bien préparer votre visite du Taj Mahal avec les coordonnées de Mohan, notre merveilleux guide qui avait rendu notre visite inoubliable.____________________________________________________________________La série "Moments forts" donne la parole à des parents, voyageurs au long cours, qui ont vécu mille aventures et mille expériences pendant quelques mois de leur vie.

Acompañantes: Niels-Henining Orsted Pedersen (b) y Albert «Tootie» Heath (dm). Fecha de Grabación: 1974. 28 mayo. Lugar de Grabación: Copenhagen. Sello Discográfico: Steeeplechase. Nº de temas: 6. Formato: LP. Instrumento: Piano. Estilo: Hardbop. Nº de Serie: 11-0036. Año de Edición: 1980. Duración: 46:04. Calificación: 4*/2. Comentario: El «gran señor de Cataluña», en palabras de Dexter Gordon, toca aquí el quizás sea su mejor disco y su obra maestra. Acompañados por dos magnificos músicos en la ritmica, Albert Heath a la bateria y Orsted Pedersen al contrabajo, Tete Montoliu hace de la música de Coltrane un swing permanente y en este disco se hace merecedor sin duda a las palabras pronunciadas por el tambien maestro del saxo, Ben Webster: «Este español tiene un swing como ningun otro pianista de Europa». La reedicion es española de 1980. Imprescindible en la discografia de Tete y referencia absoluta dentro del jazz en España. Múltiple es el nuevo trabajo de Marta Pareja Buenaventura, es un álbum de once temas íntimos que nacen de un largo proceso de más de nueve años de revisión interna, tras vivencias intensas y complejas de la cantautora. De este camino interior surge la necesidad de reencontrar la propia identidad, de responder preguntas esenciales como “¿Quién soy?” o “¿Cómo es posible que esto me haya pasado a mí?”. De ese momento vital nace la escritura en forma de versos, tejiendo poesías que verían la luz en 2024 con la publicación de Viatge(s), un libro de autor editado por Edicions Paper d’Estrassa. Paralelamente al poemario, y después de un profundo reencuentro con su voz, la autora selecciona once de esos poemas para transformarlos en canciones, acompañada por Joan Miró Prat, productor, músico y musicoterapeuta. El disco se convierte así en la culminación de un proceso personal y artístico que mira hacia los orígenes. Es un canto a los ancestros y a la propia historia, un reconocimiento de la multiplicidad del ser y de la existencia. Representa el nacimiento de una nueva identidad o, quizá, la recuperación de la identidad esencial. Al tratarse de un viaje interior, el orden de los temas adquiere una importancia especial. El hilo conductor no es la sonoridad, sino el concepto y el mensaje de cada pieza. La primera parte del álbum aborda la dimensión transgeneracional con “Origen”, “Ancestres” y “Cant a la foguera”. A continuación, la parte central recoge la historia y la experiencia vital de la autora con “Qui soc”, “Maria”, “Filla del buit”, “Equinoccis” y “Norma”. Finalmente, los últimos temas “Fase nova”, “Múltiple” y “Agraïment” simbolizan la muerte, el renacimiento, la diversidad interior y la gratitud por el camino recorrido. Múltiple fusiona la canción de autor con la música de raíz, la étnica y la electrónica, incorporando influencias del pop, el jazz, el soul y el flamenco. El resultado es una obra orgánica y diversa, donde cada sonoridad, armonía y melodía acompaña el contenido poético y emocional de las letras, respetando siempre el concepto de origen y el proceso vital que le da sentido. Créditos técnicos: Marta Pareja Buenaventura – Voz y coautoría. Joan Miró Prat – Coautoría de los temas “Múltiple”, “Origen”, “Qui soc”, “Equinoccis”, “Norma”, “Fase nova” y “Agraïment”.

Agra Veilings het weer ‘n suksesvolle kommersiële veiling Donderdag in die hoofstad gehou. Uiters goeie pryse is behaal en soos Paul Klein, algemene bestuurder van Agra Veilings aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus verduidelik, handel dit oor die reën, goeie weiding en ekstra slagkapasiteit wat aangebring word. Klein het die gemiddelde pryse so uiteengesit.

Send us a text We visit Delhi, Agra, and Mumbai with linguist and educator Dr. Jilani Warsi.Old Delhi draws us into the Red Fort's vast red sandstone walls, the bustle of Jama Masjid, and the color and flavors of Chandni Chowk where chai, sweets, and silks leave their mark. We balance that with New Delhi's calm and the Lotus Temple's open welcome to all faiths, then look upward at Qutub Minar's 12th-century tower, a vertical timeline of early rule and artistry. Along the way, we share on-the-ground advice: why to skip driving yourself, how to group sites to save time, and where an evening light-and-sound show still brings the past to life.Agra reframes the journey around love and power. The Taj Mahal becomes more than a postcard as dawn light turns marble rosy and the close-in inlay work reveals delicate stone flowers. Across the Yamuna River, Agra Fort holds Shah Jahan's final vantage point, a story you can feel when a small mirror catches the mausoleum's glow. A short hop leads to Fatehpur Sikri, where Hindu and Islamic design blend into one living compound, proof that style can be a bridge across belief.Mumbai changes the tempo again: Marine Drive's night shimmer, the Bandra-Worli Sea Link stretching like a lit ribbon, and the gravitational pull of Bollywood's studios and theaters. We leave the skyline by boat for Elephanta Island, where ancient cave temples to Shiva offer a cool breath and timeless stonework. Between stops, we chase flavor—kebabs, biryani, and samosas, and share simple ways to eat well and safely where the locals line up.Whether you're planning your first India itinerary, refining a return, or just enjoying armchair travel, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so others can find it too._____Dr. Jilani Warsi, born a two-hour drive from Mahabodhi Temple in Gaya where Buddha reached Nirvana, grew up in a multilingual environment and teaches at Queensborough Community College in New York. He curates English language lessons for native and non-native speakers under the moniker of DrEnglish, on YouTube, @DrAmericanEnglish.

Iconic. Few world landmarks exemplify the full meaning of that word quite like the Taj Mahal. I've just enjoyed freshly communing with the wondrous masterpiece in Agra, as part of a private tour of Classic India with Wendy Wu Tours. Four hours drive from New Delhi, Agra is rough and ready in places, much like the driving standards on India's roads. As my delightful Wendy Wu Tours driver Mr Singh observed, “There are three golden rules when driving in India. You need a good horn, good brakes and good luck.” Before savouring the gleaming Taj, my Wendy Wu Tours guide Nadeem led us on an enlightening tour around Agra Fort. En-route, we passed a decrepit sandstone building that Nadeem remarked had become nicknamed the “Monkey House” by locals. Apparently a vast tribe of 200 Rhesus macaques inhabit the crumbling building, running riot on the adjoining road when they head out to find food. Agra Fort is a marvel, a mighty red sandstone fortress overlooking the Yamuna River. It was established by the Mughal emperor Akbar in the 16th century, who was a descendant of Genghis Khan. The sprawling fort served as a military base and a royal residence, as well as the seat of government when Agra was the capital of the Mughal Empire. The complex is a delight to explore, radiantly reflecting the architectural grandeur of the Mughal reign – a fusion of Persian and Indian design flourishes. Highlights include the Pearl Mosque, constructed by Shah Jahan. This tranquil and perfectly proportioned structure is made entirely of white marble. The splendid Palace of Mirrors (Sheesh Mahal), had its walls and ceilings inlaid with thousands of small mirrors. The fort also served as a prison and Nadeem led us to gaze at where Shah Jahān sadly spent the last eight years of life, in his gilded cage. Aurangzeb, his son and successor as emperor, incarcerated him there in 1658. At least Jahan could gaze across to his finest triumph, his sublime Taj Mahal, rising proudly on the horizon, around the river bend. Another headline sight at Agra Fort is the Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah in Agra, India. Nicknamed the baby Taj, it's considered a precursor to the Taj Mahal. It was built 30 years earlier, for the father of the Mughal Empress Nur Jahan. The alarm clock was set for an early wake-up the following morning, to witness the Taj Mahal at sunrise. The last time I visited the Taj fourteen years ago, we timed it for sunset – but the crowd crush detracted from the experience. Wendy Wu Tours strongly recommended a sunrise visit – and they weren't wrong. There were barely a hundred people on site for the dawn of a new day and the absence of crowds enhances the encounter immeasurably. (Nor will you battling extreme heat.) After duly posing for photos on the marble bench immortalised by Princess Diana's visit, it was positively soothing to size up this colossal marble mausoleum from every angle and vantage point, as a yolky sunrise stamped its presence on proceedings. I felt lost in awe-inspired reflection in the ornamental gardens. Built as a memorial by Shah Jahan for his third wife, who died giving birth to their 14th child, it is arguably the world's greatest monument to love. The emperor was apparently so heartbroken by her death, his hair turned grey overnight. Construction of the monument began within 12 months, with the bulk of the building taking 8 years to complete. 20,000 people from India and Central Asia worked on the building, while specialists from Europe were brought in to produce the exquisite marble screens and inlay work. Much of the gold and precious stones were later looted by British soldiers. Following his death, Shah Jahan was buried here, alongside his third wife. There are so many touches to his masterpiece to admire. Look closely and you'll notice that the four soaring minarets are all subtly tilted away from the main building, so that they won't fall on it, in the event of a major earthquake. I love how the building was purposefully positioned pointing north, so that it is bathed in maximum sunlight from dawn to dusk, heightening the creamy lustre of the marble. And nothing detracts in the background. Built on a raised platform with its back to the river, the backdrop is only sky – a masterstroke in design, which adds to its timeless enchantment. It was striking how serious they are taking the threat of air pollution around the Taj mahal, with an enormous perimeter area, clamping down on vehicle use and the forced closure of factories in proximity to the monument. Previously, the Taj Mahal has been spruced up with an ancient face-pack recipe known as multani mitti. This blend of soil, cereal, milk and lime beautifies the skin. I must try it. They're very proud of all things Mughal in Agra so why not tuck into some Mughlai cuisine? This rich, meaty and aromatic culinary style blends Indian flavours with Persian, Turkish, and Central Asian influences. It is known for its creamy, rich gravies, elaborate dishes, and the liberal use of aromatic spices, almonds, cashews, dried fruits, and dairy products. Famous dishes chicken biryani, chicken korma and rogan josh. A decadent dessert steeped in Mughal Empire tradition is Shahi Tukda. Translating as royal bread, this version of bread pudding consists of crisp, fried bread slices soaked in sugar syrup and adorned with a creamy blend of milk, cornflour, spices, and nuts. Delicious! Great street snacks include peitha, a square sweet made from pumpkin and glucose and flavoured with rosewater, coconut or saffron. Also try gajak, a slightly spicy sesame-seed biscuit strip. I sampled some great local dining while staying at the Grand Imperial Hotel, in the heart of Agra. Standing proud since the early 1900s, this British colonial-era property with its soothing arches and colonnades and sprawling garden is a haven of elegant heritage and affordable luxury. It was built for the British as the Colonial Hotel and the property is steeped in period furnishings. This heritage gem gracefully merges historical charm with contemporary comfort. Every corner of the property reverberates with history's echoes and nods to ancient royalty, adorned with plush Lahori bricks, regal arches, and exquisite paintings. The sparkling swimming pool and lush gardens are a serene sanctuary to unwind the body, after a hot, sticky day of sightseeing. Hospitality is flawless and you'll be pleasantly surprised at the bargain accommodation rates. Strike it lucky and the hotel may well be hosting a bling-bling Indian wedding, while you're in-house. That is quite the spectacle! Delve into India with the award-winning tour specialists across Asia and beyond.

"For even the most intrepid of travellers, India can be a sensory assault – confronting and riveting in equal measure. If you're a first-timer to the subcontinent, the Golden Triangle which threads together New Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur offers the best crash-course in getting to grips with India. I first tripped around the Golden Triangle fourteen years ago and I've recently completed a return visit with Wendy Wu Tours. It was fascinating to discover the remarkable changes and dramatic swing in living standards, while many aspects to the allure of the Golden Triangle remained unchanged."

Landboukenner Wallie Roux het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê dat die vooruitsigte nie belowend is vir Meatco nie.

From his roots in Karauli, his path took him through the cultural landscapes of Agra, Jaipur, and Udaipur before finding a home in Delhi, where he has lived for decades, shaping the literary and intellectual discourse of contemporary India.Asad Zaidi is celebrated as a significant voice in Hindi poetry, often mentioned alongside luminaries like Mangalesh Dabral for his profound and thought-provoking verses. His poetic journey began with his debut collection, Behne aur Anya Kavitaein (1980), which established him as a distinctive voice in contemporary Hindi literature. Subsequent works, including Kavita ka Jivan (1988) and Saman ki Talash (2008), have earned critical acclaim for their lyrical depth and engagement with socio-political themes. His anthology Sare Shaam (2014), which compiles his three poetry collections, showcases his ability to weave personal and collective experiences into a rich poetic tapestry. In 1981, he was honored with the Sanskriti Award for his contributions to Hindi literature, a testament to his early impact on the literary world.Beyond poetry, Asad Zaidi is a versatile intellectual with a deep passion for cinema, music, and visual art. His critical writings reflect a nuanced understanding of these art forms, often exploring their intersections with culture and society. As a journalist and editor, he has been a fearless commentator, addressing complex issues with clarity and insight. His work extends to translations, bridging Hindi, Urdu, and English by rendering works of European, Latin American, and Chinese poets into Hindi and Urdu, as well as translating Urdu poetry into Hindi and Hindi poetry into English.As the founder of Three Essays Collective, an independent publishing house based in Delhi, Asad Zaidi, alongside his wife, historian Nalini Taneja, has created a platform that tackles challenging socio-political and cultural issues through thought-provoking books. The publishing house is known for its commitment to fostering dialogue on critical topics, engaging with the complexities of our times in a meaningful way. Asad Zaidi's contributions are not confined to the page; they resonate in his ability to connect art, literature, and social commentary. His poetry, often described as both prophetic and reflective, challenges the conventions of the Hindi literary world while remaining deeply rooted in its linguistic and cultural heritage. His interests in education and social commentary further amplify his role as a thinker who engages with the world around him, making him a vital voice in today's literary landscape.I am thrilled to feature Asad Zaidi in our Guftagoo conversation, where his poetic wisdom and cultural insights will undoubtedly inspire our audience. Join us in celebrating this remarkable poet, whose words continue to illuminate and provoke thought, as we explore his journey and contributions to literature and beyond.Listen with Irfan (LwI)A tapestry of voices and stories, spun with careSupport LwI - a soulful creation shaped by affection, thriving on the warmth of its listeners.

On the latest episode of Mathematica's On the Evidence podcast, Dr. Agnes Kalibata reflects on her career as a scientist and as the former president of the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), an African-led organization that seeks to create an environment where Africa can sustainably feed itself. It does so by focusing on scaling agricultural innovations that help smallholder farmers achieve increased incomes, better livelihoods, and improved food security. Kalibata's 10-year term as AGRA president ended earlier this year. She spoke with Mathematica President and Chief Executive Officer Paul Decker last December. Mathematica supports AGRA's implementation of its 2023–2027 monitoring, evaluation, and learning strategy.
