In this Telugu Podcast episode, we had an eye-opening conversation with Suresh Kochattil garu, who's been in the media industry for 40 yrs & 17 yrs of experience at Times of India in various levels. As the world drowns in breaking news, social media headlines, and sensationalism, This episode takes you through the actual machinery that runs Indian media. Starting with a simple question: is the printing press as dramatic as it's shown in the movies? The truth, as always, is far more layered. From how news is selected, printed, and distributed, to why newspaper stories cut off after 12 PM, we explored the real-time walkthrough of what really goes on behind those bold headlines.The episode then dives into one of the most defining moments of Indian media urgency—the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi in Sriperumbudur. How that single moment changed reporting patterns and led to a media that thrives on speed rather than depth. But this conversation is not just about journalism. It's about truth, control, perception, and the massive war of narratives we're all part of, knowingly or not.We explored how India often wins on the battlefield but loses in the eyes of the world because of poor narrative management. In contrast, countries like Qatar have silently reshaped their global image—through airlines, global sports, news networks, and funding major universities. From Al-Jazeera to the FIFA World Cup, narrative power is everything. And while that happens globally, at home, politicians are allegedly buying YouTube channels for ₹8-9 crores to push their version of reality.We didn't just stop there. We delved into the dark alleyways of the Indian underworld—gold smuggling routes, Calicut's Kondotty village, and how dons moved into real estate after using heroines and music labels as money fronts. He talked about bomb blasts, NSG failures, the Bhatkal brothers, and how stories were buried before ever being told. He opened up about the deaths of icons like Lal Bahadur Shastri and cases like Nagarwala, where ₹60 lakhs were withdrawn from SBI based on a phone call impersonating the Prime Minister.Even the names of Hyderabad's localities—Tarnaka, Musarambagh, Bolaram—carry centuries of untold stories, which were brought to life with stunning clarity. We spoke about the TRP race, the death of press conferences, and how public discourse has shifted from dinner table conversations to manipulated debate shows. The impact of “WhatsApp journalism,” sensationalism, and psychological conditioning through repetitive negative news is unpacked with startling precision.As the media landscape tilts further into noise and chaos, This discussion calls for a revival of real, fearless journalism. He expresses his admiration for Karan Thapar, Ramnath Goenka, and Ramoji Rao—figures who once stood for truth despite the odds. He reflects on why journalists today are either demonized or silenced, and how stringers are forced into unethical shortcuts due to low wages and pressure.Ending on a powerful and emotional note, he shares life lessons from his father, a man of honesty and principle, and offers his heartfelt advice to the youth of India. In a world where everyone is fighting to be heard, this episode reminds us that sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply speak the truth.
An Air India flight took off on June 12 and within seconds, it became one of the deadliest air crashes in recent memory. Only one of the 242 people aboard survived. The official investigation has been hamstrung by a severely damaged black box that had to be flown to the NTSB lab for decoding. Host Anirban Chowdhury speaks to Aurobindo Handa, former head of India’s air accident probe agency, to understand what it takes to uncover the truth after an air crash. Drawing on his years of experience including the Calicut crash of 2020 he also sheds light on what holds back India’s air safety investigations: low budgets and short-staffed teams.You can follow Anirban Chowdhury on his social media: Twitter and Linkedin Check out other interesting episodes from the host like: Tariffs trump trade, Health Hazards in your Grocery Bag, Trump vs Harvard: India Impact, Explaining India’s Record FDI Freefall and much more.

May 22, 2025Hello and Happy Day! This is Dr. MaryAnn Diorio, Novelist and Life Coach, welcoming you to another episode of Winning with the Word. Today is Thursday, May 22, 2025, and this is episode #5 in Series 2025. This episode is titled, “Christianity is NOT a Religion!”What I am about to say may surprise you, even stun you. But it is a truth with eternal consequences, a truth that is widely misunderstood but needs to be understood.My statement is this: Christianity is NOT a religion. It is a relationship.Let me say that again: Christianity is NOT a religion. It is a relationship.Understanding the difference is crucial to understanding Christianity. You see, my friend, religion is all about earning one's way to Heaven by doing good works. The American Heritage Dictionary defines "religion" as follows: "A set of beliefs, values, and practices based on the teachings of a spiritual leader." And the leader of every belief system except Christianity teaches that one must earn his way to Heaven by doing good works.While we cannot explore every belief system in existence today, let's look at the top most prominent ones outside of Christianity and what their leaders teach. I quote directly from websites on each of these belief systems:1. Islam: The leader of Islam is Mohammed. Mohammed taught the following. I quote from an article titled "What's the Road to Heaven according to Islam?" by Professor Shahul Hameed, President of the Kerala Islamic Mission, Calicut, India: I quote Professor Hameed: ". . . In Islam, both faith and good works are of equal importance; indeed they are two sides of the same coin." (https://aboutislam.net/counseling/ask-about-islam/road-heaven-islam/2. Hinduism: This belief system teaches that a person's karma, or the sum total of his good and bad deeds in his previous life, determines the level into which he will return in their next life. The ultimate goal is to be released from the rebirth cycle when one reaches moksha. Moksha is what the Hindus believe is ultimate salvation. It is a state of enlightenment achieved only through a series of good works done from one life to the next. Once a person reaches moskha, the rebirth cycle is broken and one goes to loka or Heaven. (https://hinduismfacts.org/reincarnation/salvation/) 3. Buddhism also teaches reincarnation but a continual reincarnation until one reaches nirvana, similar to the Hindu's moksha. To the Buddhist, death is not an ending but simply the beginning of a new life. What one will become in the new life results from the works one has done in his previous life. This process continues until one becomes free from the cycle of death and rebirth and reaches nirvana, or heaven.4. Judaism also teaches that salvation results from one's works. At the same time, salvation for the Jew is collective and national, not personal and individual. Jewish teaching does, however, place responsibility for sin on the sinner. Judaism teaches that the individual can atone for his sin by repentance and by doing good works. He has no need of anyone to save him. He can save himself through repenting of his sin and doing good works to make up for them. (https://chosenpeople.com/salvation-as-interpreted-by-judaism/)Did you notice that all four of the above belief systems involve good works as an essential part of salvation and going to Heaven?Yet, when we come to Christianity, we see that good works have nothing to do with salvation and going to Heaven. Let's read what the Bible says in the Book of Ephesians 2: 8-9 NLT:"God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it."Christianity teaches that no one can earn his way to Heaven. No one can do enough good works to qualify for Heaven. Why not? Because no human being can meet God's perfect standard of justice for sin. Not a single one of us could ever pay God enough for our sin...
La cité portuaire bretonne porte en elle l'histoire de cette grande aventure du commerce du lointain, vers l'Asie, au XVIIe et XVIIIe siècle. Une aventure commerciale, maritime, politique, coloniale et esclavagiste. En 1664, quand l'intendant de Louis XIV, Jean-Baptiste Colbert décide de la création de la Compagnie des Indes orientales, la France arrive en retard dans la compétition commerciale à laquelle se livrent déjà les grandes puissances européennes du XVIIe siècle. Les Portugais qui ont franchi le Cap de Bonne Espérance en 1488 ont ouvert la voie des Indes par la mer et, dix ans plus tard, Vasco de Gama rejoint Calicut en 1498. Dans leur sillage, arrivent ensuite les vaisseaux britanniques ou néerlandais qui fonderont ensuite, au début du XVIIe siècle, de puissantes compagnies de commerce. Car eux aussi, cherchaient à s'affranchir des voies terrestres sur les routes de la soie, afin d'établir des comptoirs et développer ce négoce, le « plus riche commerce du monde », disait-on. L'Orient, l'Asie, les Indes sont alors des terres qui fascinent, perçues comme des contrées lointaines d'abondance, de pierreries, d'étoffes ou d'épices.En France, la première Compagnie des Indes (il y en aura trois successives) sera donc royale et bénéficie de multiples privilèges : monopole du commerce avec l'Orient, droit de propriété des terres occupées, droit de justice souveraine, d'armer des bateaux de guerre ou droit d'esclavage, etc… Son siège sera établi à Lorient, en Bretagne, une ville qui va naître et se développer avec la Compagnie jusqu'à devenir la porte vers l'Orient, auquel elle doit d'ailleurs son nom. Aujourd'hui, face à la mer, sur le site magnifique de la Citadelle de Port-Louis, le musée de la Compagnie des Indes, ouvert en 1984, retrace cette histoire complexe, mais fondatrice. Dans ce musée truffé d'étoffes, de cartes anciennes, de maquettes de bateaux ou de porcelaines, on raconte donc les épopées maritimes à bord des gros navires de la Compagnie des Indes, les marchandises convoitées et l'économie Monde déjà très concurrentielle au XVIIe siècle.Mais derrière ces longs voyages aux parfums d'aventure et d'exotisme, se dessinent des logiques de compétition et de prédation telles que l'homme deviendra une marchandise comme les autres. Le système esclavagiste et plantationnaire, notamment dans les Mascareignes soit l'île de La Réunion, Rodrigues et Maurice, faisait, en effet, partie intégrante du fonctionnement de la Compagnie fondée par Colbert, par ailleurs à l'origine du Code noir. Lorient sera donc un port négrier, le premier de France même, pendant une courte période de monopole… Déployées sur tous les continents, les compagnies européennes de commerce vont semer les graines de la mondialisation, ouvrant la voie à une société de consommation où les produits sont fabriqués aux quatre coins du monde, à commencer par la Chine, aujourd'hui justement en guerre commerciale avec les États-Unis…► Un reportage de Céline Develay-Mazurelle avec Laure Allary.En savoir plus Sur la destination Lorient Bretagne Sud et préparer votre voyage Sur le musée de la Compagnie des Indes de Lorient Sur l'ouvrage de référence Les compagnies des Indes de Gérard Le Bouëdec et Philippe Haudrère, réédition augmentée, Rennes, Editions Ouest-France-Edilarge, mai 2024 Sur Lorient, la compagnie des Indes et l'esclavage, un article de Jacques Chérel, 2018 Sur la Compagnie des Indes et l'île Bourbon- La Réunion, un article de Philippe Haudrère Sur les indiennes de traite, un article de Krystel Galdé, 2018 Sur Le café, plaisir au goût d'amertume, une exposition au musée de la Compagnie des Indes, 2022

Wherever We Sing, He ListensMr T M Krishnadas Eradi from Calicut, Kerala, is one of the legendary members of the Prasanthi Bhajan Group who has had the opportunity to sing for Bhagawan in Prasanthi Nilayam right from the sixties. His sonorous voice reverberates in the Sai Kulwant Hall off and on, even now bringing back the nostalgic flavour of the bhajans of the earlier era. Indeed, he was personally groomed and guided by Bhagawan in all aspects of bhajan singing. In this episode of OMS he recalls one telling episode through which Bhagawan taught all of us how He listens to every bhajan, no matter who sings it or where it is sung.

Dave and Jill Hines work for the Methodist church in south Belfast, in an area called Ballynafeigh off the Ormeau Road. They are imagining what a new community could look like in the most ethnically diverse part of a city not famed for it's diversity. Before this they lived in India for 8 years and dreamed up ways to build up a Community Development NGO in Calicut and Ooty in Kerala and Tamil Nadu in south India. Before that they developed an award winning cafe in Belfast called Common Grounds and were part of leading a church called City Church Belfast. Throughout their marriage they have found a way to build fires of community while being schooled in the tradition of Wesley, Brennan Manning and Amy Carmichael. They bring a perpetual bright eyed idealism with open arms of embrace to everyone, all the time. In many ways they epitomise the idea of being Guardians of the Flame. Dave and Jill are lifelong friends of Jonny and Jenn Clark and it was a privilege to create space for them to tell their story.
Even though the Zamorin of Calicut acquired the status of presiding ruler of Mamangam festival, a group of young warriors refused to accept his supremacy.

Spiritual Lecture, Addressing Calicut Meet
Tot voor kort werd Christoffel Colombus allom als een held vereerd. De laatste jaren is de 15de eeuwse ontdekkingsreiziger echter steeds meer een controversieel figuur geworden. Mensenrechtenactivisten wijzen ondere andere op de rol die hij speelde in het tot stand brengen van de slavernij. Ook Vasca da Gama, de admiraal van de Indische Oceaan, dreigt op een zelfde manier van zijn voetstuk te vallen. Pauline, Helena en Marie-Renéé voeren je mee langs Kaap de Goede Hoop tot in Calicut en belichten de minder bekende kanten van zijn ontdekking van India. Interesse in andere historische figuren?

Analyzing the spread and survival of Islamic legal ideas and commentaries in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean littorals, Islamic Law in Circulation: Shafi'i Texts across the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean (Cambridge University Press, 2022) focuses on Shāfiʿīsm, one of the four Sunnī schools of Islamic law. It explores how certain texts shaped, transformed and influenced the juridical thoughts and lives of a significant community over a millennium in and between Asia, Africa and Europe. By examining the processes of the spread of legal texts and their roles in society, as well as thinking about how Afrasian Muslims responded to these new arrivals of thoughts and texts, Mahmood Kooria weaves together a narrative with the textual descendants from places such as Damascus, Mecca, Cairo, Malabar, Java, Aceh and Zanzibar to tell a compelling story of how Islam contributed to the global history of law from the thirteenth to the twentieth century. Mahmood Kooria is a researcher at Leiden University (the Netherlands) and a visiting faculty of history at Ashoka University (India). Earlier, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Dutch Institute in Morocco (NIMAR); International Institute for Asian Studies (IIAS); and African Studies Centre, Leiden (ASCL). He received his PhD in Global History from Leiden University in 2016. Before this, he studied at the Centre for Historical Studies of Jawaharlal Nehru University (New Delhi, India) for his M.A. and M.Phil. in Ancient Indian History, and at Darul Huda Islamic University and the University of Calicut (both in Kerala, India) for Bachelors. In addition to numerous academic journal articles and book chapters, he has co-edited Malabar in the Indian Ocean: Cosmopolitanism in a Maritime Historical Region (2018) and Islamic Law in the Indian Ocean World: Texts, Ideas and Practices (2022). Currently he is writing a book on the matriarchal Muslim communities in East Africa and South and Southeast Asia. Learn more about your ad choices.

Im Frühjahr 1504 belagerte ein riesiges Heer aus 50.000 Soldaten, 300 Kriegselefanten und 200 Schiffen die Stadt Kochi an der indischen Malabarküste – dort versuchten 150 Portugiesen mit einem Hilfstrupp einheimischer Soldaten die Übermacht des Samorin aus Calicut (heute Kozhikode) abzuwehren und den bislang einzigen Militärstützpunkt in Indien zu verteidigen. Gerade erst hatten die Portugiesen den Seeweg nach Indien für sich entdeckt und waren dabei, sich ein weltumspannendes Handelsnetz aufzubauen. Wir sprechen über die Anfänge der europäischen Expansion und wie Portugal zum ersten Weltreich der Geschichte wurde. **AUS UNSERER WERBUNG** Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Ghazi Faisal Al-Muliafi's journey began with one statement from his grandfather, who was once a Kuwaiti pearl diving shipmaster: “All the men died at sea”. Now an ethnomusicologist at NYU Abu Dhabi, Ghazi has spent his career researching Kuwaiti pearl diving music and the lives of the pearl divers in order to connect with his ancestral past. In the process, his work has uncovered long lost narratives that have larger implications on how we think about cultural appropriation, tradition, and national identity. When Kuwait became a nation in 1961, the music of pearl diving became codified as a national signifier for the country. The music was no longer allowed to morph and change as it had for hundreds of years prior when the pearl divers were out at sea, travelling along their trading routes. Ghazi realized that his ancestors were global citizens in their own right and, without the current ideals about fixed heritage and national identity, they experienced a freedom of cultural sharing that we no longer have today. From this revelation, Boom.Diwan, Ghazi's collaborative global jazz ensemble, was created. Inspired by the Kuwaiti pearl diving music of the Indian Ocean trade, with influences all the way from Zanzibar to Calicut, Boom.Diwan emphasizes fluidity and cross-cultural conversations through their music. Today, their work is a fusion of latin, jazz, and middle eastern influence.As we familiarized ourselves with Ghazi's work, we realized that his research was in direct opposition to what we had been previously taught about cultural appropriation. We had believed culture and heritage to be fixed, and that sharing, especially in music, often resulted in backlash. When the utilization of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) and the improper use of Pan Asian aesthetics by white pop artists negatively affects marginalized groups, is there another model of cultural sharing that doesn't cause harm?Told through the music that inspired his research, Ghazi's story contains reflections on the difference between tradition and heritage, national identity, and practical examples of what cultural sharing can look like. We relate these ideas back to similar narratives around the world and explain what Ghazi's research means for how we move forward in the conversation about cultural appropriation versus appreciation. Our deep dive into the history of this music and culture is perfect for music and history lovers alike, and anyone interested in exploring the concepts of heritage, tradition, and cultural appropriation.

The Pre Prophet Arabian history is summed up in the statement that the Arabs were Nomads, warring tribes and worshiped Pagans. Islamic History records that Muhammad, after his return from Medina destroyed 360 Idols in Kaaba. This was done with the help of Seven allies with whom Muhammad formed an alliance and these people were tribal chiefs. The early unruly and warring tribes of Arabia was subjugated by King Vikramaditya of India in 100 BC. He established Hindu Dharma and laid the foundation of Sanatana Dharma in Arabia. Along with other idols , he also installed a Shiva Linga in Kaaba. it is believed that Jats from India were entrusted with the protection of the Kaaba temple. And they also doubled up as physicians. ‘It is mentioned in the Abadis i.e., the authentic traditions of Prophet Mohammad compiled by Imam Bukhari that the Indian tribe of Jats had settled in Arabia before Prophet Mohammad's times. Once when Hazrat Ayesha, wife of the Prophet, was taken ill, her nephew sent for a Jat physician for her treatment. This proves that Indians enjoyed a high and esteemed status in Arabia. Such a status could not be theirs unless they were the rulers. Bukhari also tells us that an Indian Raja (king) sent a jar of ginger pickles to the Prophet. This shows that the Indian Jat Raja ruled an adjacent area so as to be in a position to send such an insignificant present as ginger pickles. The Prophet is said to have so highly relished it as to have told his colleagues also to partake of it. These references show that even during Prophet Mohammad's times Indians retained their influential role in Arabia, which was a dwindling legacy from Vikramaditya's times.9slaram, net) There is yet another evidence that priests were sent from Kerala by the King Cheraman Peruman Nayanar to perform Poojas in the Kaaba temple. He was a contemporary of Prophet. As a matter of fact this is the only solid historical evidence from external sources for the existence of Prophet. ‘ Ibn Battuta accounts say that Calicut King Cheman Perumal had a head priest cum accounts in-charge at the Shiva Temple ( called PAGAN temple by the west ) at Mecca which was a watering oasis for the camels , enroute to Jerusalem and Petra. ..For whatever reasons, the disturbed King decided to make a trip to Mecca , as soon as he heard that Mohammed founded Islam and installed a black stone , on the SE corner of the Kaaba. He took a ship from Calicut to Salalah and form there went by caravan route to Mecca. He met Mohammed , and the Islamic grapevine says that he was impressed by Islam and got converted from Hindu to Muslim. The King's court at Calicut does NOT record this conversion, though messages were sent fast by carrier pigeons and hawks. The Encyclopedia Islamia admits as much when it says: “Muhammed's grandfather and uncles were hereditary priests of the Kaaba temple which housed 360 Vedic idols!” The encyclopedia Britannica records this too.( Captain Ajit Vadakayil) That the Kin was converted to Islam is not corroborated.
