How does a nation crippled by territorial losses clear a war debt worth a fraction of a global empire's annual output within two years? In this episode, Ramjee Chandran analyzes the true economic weight of the 3-crore-and-30-lakh-rupee ransom imposed on Tipu Sultan after the Treaty of Seringapatam. Uncover how Tipu avoided borrowing a single rupee by combining personal treasury reserves, severe military wage cuts, and sophisticated revenue extractions from his subjects to bring his hostage sons back from Madras Key Details from the Script: Evaluating the True Value of 3 Crore 30 Lakh Rupees: Economic historian M.H. Gopal converts the indemnity to £3.3 million sterling (at £1 to Rs 10). Using economic historian Stephen Broadberry's methodology—which measures an indemnity's share of a nation's total economic output—the 1792 payment represented 1.5% to 1.75% of Great Britain's entire annual GDP (~£200 million at the time). Applied to the modern UK economy (~£3.15 trillion), this single payment equates to approximately £45 billion today. Inspection of Mysore's Portable Treasury Books: During initial negotiations, the British originally demanded 6 crore rupees. Mysore's chief envoys, including Ghulam Ali, presented the kingdom's formal, portable treasury accounts for British inspection. Upon verifying these ledgers, Lord Cornwallis agreed to accept 3 crore rupees, plus 30 lakh rupees for "durbar expenses" (war costs), specifically demanding immediate cash in hand ("ready money" in gold/silver coin and bullion). Immediate Remittance and the Pressure of Hostages: Delay, default, or bad-harvest pleas were impossible options because Tipu's two young sons were held hostage in Madras. On February 28, 1792—less than a week after preliminary terms were sealed and weeks before the final treaty was signed—Tipu remitted over 1 crore and 9 lakh rupees (~one-third of the total debt). How the Full Ransom Was Raised (Wilks/Gopal Analysis): 110 Lakhs (1.1 Crore): Direct contribution from Tipu Sultan's personal treasury and state reserves. 60 Lakhs: Extracted from the Mysore army via Nazarana (forced ceremonial offerings). Soldiers' annual pay was cut by two months per year over 2.5 years, forcing the defeated military to pay for its own war penalty. 160 Lakhs (1.6 Crore): Collected from the population. Department heads fraudulently assessed themselves as paid on paper and shifted the burden to the districts. The state artificially inflated the conversion value of the gold pagoda, forcing farmers to pay higher actual tax rates. The Paradox of Credit: Mysore vs. East India Company: Mysore: Paid the entirety of its massive, modern multi-billion-pound equivalent debt in cash without borrowing a single anna. East India Company: Conquered India almost entirely on credit extended by Indian banking houses (hundis), leading to a tripled corporate debt under Richard Wellesley that nearly bankrupted the Company. The final payment was delivered in 1794, successfully securing the safe return of princes Abdul Khaliq and Muiz-ud-din.

Look at Not Hira But The HeroMr Indreshwar Singh Sirohi is perhaps best known as the grandson of the Rajamata of Nawanagar, one of the foremost royal devotees who played a pivotal role in the mission of the Sri Sathya Sai Avatar. She was, in fact, among the founding members of the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust when Bhagawan established it in 1972.Born into the erstwhile princely families of Jamnagar and Sirohi in Gujarat, Mr Indreshwar Singh Sirohi never imagined that he would one day study at Swami's college and live in the hostel alongside students from every walk of life. When that became a reality, he initially struggled to accept it. But before long, he realised that this was one of the greatest blessings Bhagawan had bestowed upon him.In fact the years he spent in the hostel during the 1980s and his close interactions with Bhagawan became the bedrock of his life, shaping his character and outlook forever. In this Satsang from our archives, Mr Indreshwar, affectionately known as Gopal, takes us down memory lane, sharing a few cherished incidents and timeless teachings from Bhagawan that continue to illuminate and guide his life even today.

Healthcare is undergoing a serious transition away from hardware-centric systems toward software-defined and physical AI-enabled healthcare environments. Healthcare is also moving toward a paradigm that is proactive, personalized, and ambient, leveraging intelligent technologies to improve patient care, operational efficiency, and clinical outcomes. The conversation explores how technologies such as advanced diagnostics, surgical robotics, remote monitoring, and smart medical devices are reshaping healthcare delivery. Gopal also shares practical insights into the challenges the industry faces around regulation, cybersecurity, data interoperability, verification and validation, and operational transformation. Most importantly, the discussion highlights how healthcare is gradually moving from reactive treatment models toward more proactive, personalized, and patient-centric care by 2030. This is a valuable conversation for healthcare leaders, technology executives, and anyone interested in the future of healthcare innovation. Watch this insightful interaction Ramachandran S, HFS Research, had with Gopalratnam VC, Executive Vice President and Global CIO at Philips, on the move toward software-defined healthcare. Key TakeawaysSoftware is becoming the key differentiator in modern medical devices. Intelligent systems and robotics are improving precision and operational efficiency in healthcare. Verification, validation, and compliance remain critical in healthcare technology adoption. Data fragmentation and lack of interoperability continue to slow innovation across healthcare ecosystems. The healthcare industry is moving toward more proactive and preventive care models. Personalized healthcare experiences will become increasingly important by 2030. Automation can help reduce administrative burdens for clinicians and healthcare staff. Future healthcare systems are expected to become more connected, efficient, and patient-focused.

We have Daniel Schlagwein on the show, who is what Germans call a "Tausendsassa:" He is both a practitioner and researcher of digital nomadism, the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Information Technology, and president of the AIS special interest group on Grounded Theory Methodology. We touch upon all three of these aspects, but at the core we want to know from Daniel whether generative AI tools are automating grounded theory and thereby eliminate what used to be at the heart of a humanistic and constructionist approach to doing research – or are they merely leveling the playing field for qualitative field researchers by giving them computational support matching those tools that quantitative researchers have had for a long time. Daniel argues that it depends on the specific flavor of the grounded theory method you are using to determine whether and how you can leverage generative AI for such research.

15 months ago, Syria finally saw an end to the nearly 14 years of civil war after the ousting of Syrian Dictator Bashar Al-Assad. Now, as the US and Israel's war on neighboring Iran only escalates while they continue calls for Iranian civilians to "take over" their government, the question remains: could a Western-backed, civilian-led uprising come to fruition in Iran? And how much more difficult would regime change be there versus a country like Syria? Who better to ask than Middle East journalist and Pulitzer Prize finalist Anand Gopal – whose newest book, Days of Love and Rage, reports in-depth on Syria's civil war. In this 'Mehdi Unfiltered' interview, Gopal explains to Mehdi which lessons from Syria's civil war are relevant for Iran today.

Padithal Mattum Podhuma . Raju and Gopal are close cousins raised together by the zamindar and Mangalam. Raju is educated and timid, while Gopal is uneducated and rough. A marriage broker arranges matches: Raju with the wealthy Meena and Gopal with the village girl Seetha. Due to a mix‑up, Raju meets Seetha and falls for her, while Gopal impresses Meena by accident.Unable to express his wishes, Raju sends anonymous letters defaming himself and Gopal, causing the families to swap the matches. Raju marries Seetha happily, but Gopal's marriage to Meena turns bitter when she discovers he is uneducated. Misunderstandings grow, and Gopal is wrongly blamed for the defamatory letters.When the truth nearly surfaces, Gopal protects Raju, but tensions escalate. After being humiliated by Meena's family, Gopal loses control and goes into the forest with a rifle. Raju tries to stop him, and in the struggle the gun fires, killing Raju. Before dying, Raju makes Gopal promise not to reveal his guilt about the letter.Gopal is arrested, but Mangalam later reveals the truth. Seetha testifies that no one knows who pulled the trigger, freeing Gopal. Gopal and Meena reconcile, while Seetha returns to her village.

In a rural village, a man named Gopal is said to have died from a snakebite. But hours after his cremation, his wife claims he is standing in their courtyard. As neighbors witness shadows forming from ashes and whispers of poison echo through the house, a chilling truth surfaces — the snake was never outside. And by morning, two souls are gone… but no one saw the second death happen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
This episode goes inside the real shift from founder hustle to founder design.Gopal built SOLARA by staying close to operations in the early years. Today, his role has shifted. He focuses on growth, while others run execution. But that transition is not automatic. As a founder, you are constantly switching between operator, shareholder, and long-term architect. The hard part is knowing when to step back and let specialists take over.He joins Shantanu Deshpande, along with Shiv Shivakumar, Operating Partner at Advent International, and Toshan Tamhane, COO at UPL Group, for a candid conversation on scaling in a changing consumer market.From bootstrapping decisions to the ₹500 crore acquisition question, from hiring senior leaders to building culture without bureaucracy, the discussion goes deep into how consumer brands must evolve.They also unpack a powerful external trend: the rise of the open kitchen. Appliances are no longer hidden utilities. They are visible, aesthetic, and part of lifestyle identity. Water purifiers, drinkware, and kitchen equipment have shifted from commodities to fashion. When the kitchen becomes open, the product must earn pride of place.Problems we solve in this episode:1. Should you bootstrap to ₹500 crores or raise capital to hit ₹1,000+ crores faster?2. Will a celebrity endorsement build trust, or are regional micro-influencers the smarter bet?3. When should you hire senior talent from outside without breaking your startup culture?4. Do experience stores make sense for a digital-first brand going offline?If you are building a consumer brand navigating scale, capital, and positioning in a more design-conscious India, this episode will sharpen your thinking.

Over the years, there have been high-level political engagements between Australia and India. Both countries have a shared vision for a stable Indo-Pacific region. Speaking to SBS Hindi, outgoing Indian High Commissioner to Australia Gopal Baglay reflected on the strategic partnerships developed across multiple sectors, as well as the surprising lessons he learned about Australian coffee culture. He also expressed hope for the active negotiation of the Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) to expand on ECTA, focusing on critical minerals, digital trade, and education.
SAHPRA has issued a warning about certain children’s products on the market that contain zinc picolinate and selenium. These ingredients have been found in products commonly sold as immune boosters for children, and SAHPRA says they are not permitted in health supplements for anyone under the age of 18.

A lot has changed about how we work and do business. But one truth has remained the same – the importance of relationships. We've all felt the benefits of building good business relationships; successful projects, faster progress, confident decisions, career opportunities and meaningful support. We've probably all felt the effects of less-good relationships too; stilted results, miscommunication, lack of trust and a lot of frustration. Whether it's the long-standing client who just introduced a new leader, the potential client who isn't really looking to buy right now, or the unlikely alliance that could change everything; behind every deal, launch, and partnership is people - and the way we relate to each other is at the heart of what really drives success. So, what does it take to build successful business relationships in a world of hybrid meetings, endless emails, and fast-moving change? That's what we're exploring with Dr Linda Papadopoulos, psychologist, academic and author, and Nina Gopal, a partner in banking and capital markets at Deloitte UK, as we ask: What's the secret to stronger business relationships? Tune in to find out: What three traits are found in every successful relationship How to transform conflict into a catalyst for better business relationships Why our reliance on digital communication is preventing us from truly connecting Two things we can all do tomorrow to improve our professional interactions Enjoyed this episode?

Maybe it's just me, but it seems like everyone knows who State Senator Vin Gopal is. But if you don't, no reason to fret. This conversation between Vin and me doesn't dwell on the obvious. . . politics. I get him to talk about his secret talents and who would be the first person he'd call if he ended up in the slammer.
The glories of Lord Gopāla, who is merciful to brāhmaṇas, are very great. The narration of Sākṣi-gopāla was spoken by Nityānanda Prabhu and heard by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Purport There are four points of instruction one should consider in the story of Sākṣi-gopāla. First, the Deity (arcā-vigraha) of Śrī Gopāla is eternally sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, the transcendental form of the Lord. Second, the Deity surpasses material regulative principles and extends the reality of transcendental principles. Third, one can be situated in a transcendental position after becoming a brāhmaṇa, but as a brāhmaṇa, one has to follow the regulative principles very strictly. Lastly, brahmaṇya-deva indicates Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Himself, who is worshiped thus: namo brahmaṇya-devāya go-brāhmaṇa-hitāya ca/ jagad-dhitāya kṛṣṇāya govindāya namo namaḥ. This indicates that a devotee who is under the protection of Kṛṣṇa is automatically situated as a brāhmaṇa, and such a brāhmaṇa is not illusioned. This is factual.

There, she helped design innovative approaches to treating chronic pain that combined medical science with holistic practices. Our conversation ranges from personal health to systemic change, challenging old assumptions and offering practical, hopeful guidance for anyone living with pain or leading others.

What if your biggest entrepreneurial edge wasn't your skills or network, but your capacity to endure setbacks and keep innovating anyway? This week on FOMO Sapiens, Patrick McGinnis talks to Ankur Gopal, founder and CEO of Interapt, named one of the “100 Most Meaningful Businesses in the World.” Ankur shares how discovering his own resilience reshaped his journey from Kentucky to nationwide impact. He explains how Interapt's paid tech apprenticeships train and launch talent from underserved communities into high-demand careers, delivering a “win-win-win” for individuals, families, and companies tackling talent shortages. He breaks down how Interapt grew from one training track to over 70, how they stay ahead of AI disruption with constant upskilling, and why human skills matter now more than ever. If you're building against the odds, this conversation is your proof that profit and purpose don't just coexist: they power each other. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Gopal Krishnamurthy is the founder and CEO of Lumel, which has a suite of products focused on enterprise performance management (EPM). Their apps allow users to plan, report, and analyze data using the modern native app framework vs. traditional SaaS on top of modern cloud data platforms such as Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, Databricks, and others. Lumel's products provide a full stack of integrated Planning, BI & data apps on the customers' data platforms. He grew his enterprise services company, Visual BI, to over 200 employees and sold that company to Atos in 2021, as he described in his first Practical Founders podcast interview in 2023. Gopal self-funded Lumel with a VC-sized investment and has grown it to over 300 employees in four years. Lumel is already at a revenue run rate of over $12M ARR and is growing fast. Lumel is building its apps using modern cloud data platforms, not siloed SaaS databases, allowing it to manage real-time data across applications. This bold new vision and architecture for enterprise software apps align with modern data approaches supporting AI, creating a billion-dollar opportunity for Lumel in the future. In this episode, Gopal also discusses: The challenge of transitioning from custom services to a no-touch product-led approach selling to enterprises Why VCs wouldn't understand their technology bet and why their patience is paying off What it's like to grow a fast-growth and innovative technology company as a bootstrapper Quote from Gopal Krishnamurthy, founder and CEO of Lumel “The main thing is it's a big market. It's not like we are just trying to get our first $10 million revenue. We have done that with Lumel already. We are looking at how we can get to a billion-dollar ARR business. That's the big, bold vision. We have invested tens of millions already, and we are almost profitable. “We think we can absolutely create a billion-dollar business based on our customer feedback and traction from 3,000 customers. So, it's not a question of product market fit. We worked with hundreds of our enterprise customers and perfected our data app products. “The other thing is that our products can work for smaller and medium-sized businesses because of our architecture and approach. It's completely horizontal: it works for all industries and all customers of all sizes.” Links Gopal Krishnamurthy on LinkedIn Lumel on LinkedIn Lumel website Power BI website The Practical Founders Podcast Tune into the Practical Founders Podcast for weekly in-depth interviews with founders who have built valuable software companies without big funding.

Nadine Whitney had the wonderful opportunity to speak with Karan Kandhari and Radhika Apte about Sister Midnight and how as original and ‘weird' as it is, it's also representative of people who are rarely seen as (essential) inhabitants of Mumbai. Both Karan and Radhika are an absolute joy to listen to. Kandhari's film is a marvel of inventiveness. The work itself breaks the rules of what is considered genre cinema by never settling on one. Sister Midnight is much like the artist who performed the song after which it is named. Igwald Popstar – known to people who haven't chosen a ridiculous nickname for him as Iggy Pop or James Newell Osterberg Jr., – a man for whom conformity is as anathema as wearing a shirt. It's punk, it's unpredictable, and it has no time to explain itself to people who aren't feeling its strange and wonderful rhythms.Uma and Gopal barely speak to each other but when Uma does open her mouth the crude (but funny) invectives pour out. Her spikiness doesn't bother her neighbour Sheetal (Chhaya Kadam) greatly who takes her under her own resigned wing. However, even when Uma tries (and fails) to be wifely Gopal isn't particularly receptive preferring instead to drink alone than to accommodate Uma. When they do try to be a young couple, they end up taking a pointless thirteen-hour excursion to a beach, only to have to turn around and go home again. Life seems to demand that when they are with each other it is in extremely close quarters which makes Uma more aggressive and Gopal more avoidant. The green wedding bangles she wears (and shakes in anger) become shackles she can't wait to have cut off.Uma begins to make her own way through the city encountering other people whose lives are on the fringes. A trans sex worker who feels a kind of kinship with Uma's oddness. An elevator attendant in a building she begins working at as a cleaner (“Can you clean?” Uma is asked. “I'm a domestic goddess.” She replies), and then there are the goats who seem to follow her wherever she goes. Something is rising in her – something feral and undeniable – neither welcomed nor wholly unwelcomed.Trying to describe what goes on in Sister Midnight is much like humming a blisteringly brilliant song and hoping your paltry version matches up. Karan Kandhari's marvellous vision simply needs to be seen and heard (the soundtrack is incredible) for the fantastic jolts to pull you into its idiosyncratic and singular orbit.Sister Midnight is vivid and infectious. Radhika Apte is towering as Uma who inability to just “be a person” makes her an outlaw setting her own rules. Expect the unexpected in Sister Midnight and trust wherever it takes you is going to be rebellious and irresistible. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Bluesky @thecurbau.

When we would stay at Govardhana Hill during Kārtik every year, he would come on parikramā with thousands and thousands of devotees. The Govardhana āshram is a quiet place, and during the festival season, sometimes during the day, a yātrā will come in and swarm the place for half an hour, an hour, and then go away. Mahārāja was so personal that he would stop in to see any of his godbrothers, whatever room they were in. And I can remember many times when he would just burst in the room, and then the room would be flooded because devotees would come in with him. Sometimes I'd be sitting doing a pūjā or getting ready for something, and all of a sudden the door would fling open, and Mahārāja would come in with his devotees, and we'd offer obeisances. He would grab my hand, and he'd always have some encouraging words to say. He would say something personal, and it was 99.9% of the time about book distribution, that we have to distribute more, we have to double it. He would say encouraging things, and he would stop in and see other godbrothers, and then he would go on his way. When he came here to ISV, we invariably asked him to make a video for us. Luckily, we have those and we have the pictures of them. One of the times I remember, he sat outside there in front of the hedge in a chair, and we had all he camera set up, and he had the microphone, and it was a blissful time that we had to sit around him and feel that here's one of the senior most leaders in our movement, and he's a book distributor, and he's for us. He would take the time to sit down and go through the rigors of making a video. "Did that go through? Did that take? Fix the microphone, move a little to the left." He didn't mind because he knew the influence he would have by advocating for book distribution, so he would take the time to do that, and we would sit with him and listen to him speak, and it did have a huge effect on people all over the world, as it still is now. Last year, because the devotees were dedicating their activities in distributing books to Mahārāja, and they were especially inspired, which is also the mode of the devotees after their spiritual master leaves the world—where to take shelter? The tirobhāva means when the light of the spiritual master's personal presence goes out, then what light does one follow? One must follow the order of the spiritual master, and one must reconstitute everything one's heard and seen in one's guru to understand how to conduct one's own life. How did my guru speak? How would he make a decision about a particular issue that's going on? We all of you who are his disciples and all of us who are his loving godbrothers and anyone else have a catalog of all he said and the way he said it and the way he reacted to circumstances that we can remember and bring out as we go through the maze which is the material world and trying to find our way through darkness and conduct our services. A heartfelt moment I had with Mahārāja was after...

In this profound episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana speaks with Gopal Norbert Klein, a German trauma therapist, author of The Vagus Key, and the creator of the innovative Floating Group Therapy method. Gopal dives deep into why so many therapeutic methods fail to address the root of suffering and how unresolved childhood relationship issues are at the core of many life challenges. He shares why trauma isn't just about revisiting the past—it's about addressing the patterns and beliefs we recreate in the present. Together, they explore the limitations of traditional individual-focused therapy, the power of group dynamics, and how authentic connection and co-regulation play critical roles in healing. Gopal discusses practical changes therapists can make, including honest sharing and understanding the role of physical distance and relational safety. About the Guest: Gopal Norbert Klein is a trauma therapist specializing in attachment and developmental trauma, known for his groundbreaking approach using Floating Group Therapy and the Honest Sharing method. His best-selling book, The Vagus Key, offers insights into unlocking healing through the nervous system. Reach: https://sundaywithgopal.com/ Key Takeaways: Symptom-focused therapy often misses the root cause: Many psychotherapists target surface-level symptoms without addressing the underlying developmental trauma. Healing happens in the present: Revisiting the past isn't necessary—trauma can be resolved by observing how we recreate childhood relational patterns in the present. Group therapy aligns with our biology: As social beings, healing is often more effective in group settings where safety and connection are prioritized. Co-regulation over self-regulation: True healing comes from external connection and support, not just self-reliance. Therapists need personal transformation: Therapists must undergo their own internal growth to guide clients through deep transformations effectively.
