A version of this essay has been published by Open Magazine at https://openthemagazine.com/world/india-will-collapse-without-digital-sovereignty-and-pax-indica-lessons-from-hormuzBy now it is clear that the Iran War (or West Asia War) has been a disaster to all concerned, including the principals as well as assorted passersby. The massive amounts spent by the US (at last count $25 billion) are at least articulated; the bill for the enormous infrastructural and human suffering inflicted on Gulf states, in the theater of war, must be greater, by definition.The collateral damages suffered by the rest of the world from the cessation of trade through the Straits of Hormuz will presumably run into the trillions of dollars. As one of the worst affected, India, which imports 90% of its hydrocarbons from the Gulf, not to mention other essential items such as urea (for fertilizer), sulfuric acid, helium, etc., is on track to take a massive hit. As an article in The Economic Times said, “India must brace for broad-based economic shock”.Indian exports of up to $50 billion are also affected, especially agricultural products including perishable foodstuffs, but also gems and jewellery, electronics, textiles and garments. Some of this can be diverted via Oman and the UAE's Fujairah port, but much of it passes through the Straits of Hormuz and is potentially blocked and/or stranded at sea.The Hormuz closure is a body blow to India's economy. What can and will India do about it? The Indian State has a habit of rising to the challenge only when there is a crisis, while vegetating otherwise. The 1991 economic crisis is a case in point; the sanctions following “The Buddha is smiling”, and the denial of cryogenic rocket engines and supercomputers are other examples where the nation rallied. So were covid vaccines. Necessity, they say, is the mother of invention.Turning a threat into an opportunityIf I were to be an optimist, I could say that the current crisis is actually an opportunity. In fact, a major opportunity. My reading of the Iran War is that it is President Trump's strategic tit-for-tat against China for denying him rare earths and cutting off soybean purchases. In return Trump decided to deny China access to oil by closing access to Venezuela and Iran. Whether this will work, or whether the G2 condominium (read ‘surrender') will prevail, is unclear.But that is, in a sense, background noise that needs to be managed. India needs to focus on its own issues, of which I see several as critical, and the solution in general is to become Atmanirbhar, self-reliant, and from that, to create an Anti-Fragile nation:* National security/defense* Food security* Energy security* Digital security/narrative control* Trade securityThe first three do not need an explanation: they are obvious. Internal and external security are pre-requisites for any successful society. If India's hard-won food security can be threatened by external threats, then there needs to be some deep introspection. Energy security means diversification, both of hydrocarbon sources, and of types of energy, including renewables, nuclear, biomass, coal-based, and so on.Malign narratives and digital sovereigntyNarrative control is something that the Indian State has failed at so far; it is laughably easy to create hate speech against Indians and India (as has been demonstrated freely by any number of players, starting from the MAGA crowd, to Audrey Truschke to a”Cockroach Janata Party” and some nitwit Norwegian journalist in just the last fortnight) and there are no consequences to the culprits. It's enough to make me pine for Lee Kuan Yew's aggressive legal battles against the media.It's one thing if it were only a problem with foreigners, but with the massive spread of social media, and in particular generativeAI, it is becoming a serious domestic issue. Since India is an avid consumer of social media, and because generativeAI is trained on things like Wikipedia, X, Whatsapp and Google content, biased and motivated material becomes ensconced as The Truth. I have written about narrative warfare and manufacturing consent.This used to be a one-way tsunami of (mis)-information by legacy media, but now there is also the opposite: the wholesale and free vacuuming-up of Indian data (whatever happened to “data is the new oil”?). The “Great Firewall of China” both kept out foreign BIg Tech applications and prevented their plundering Chinese data: is that the way to go?Manufactured narratives are intended for regime change: all the color revolutions today are hatched with massive bot-farms funded by some combination of Deep State, CCP, ISI, Qatar etc. (for example the alleged Gen-Z uprisings that rocked Nepal, drove Sheikh Hasina out of Bangladesh). Thus muzzling malign narratives, and ensuring data security, are imperative.Even Singapore is not immune: it had to block anti-India narratives that likely originated from Chinese sources.A particularly striking example of narrative warfare is the virtual hate speech inducted into Wikipedia by deeply prejudiced anonymous editors. Ashley Rindsberg, who exposed the mighty New York Times' biases in his book The Gray Lady Winked, provides many examples of this.Of note to Indians and Hindus is his recent substack titled “Wikipedia's India War” where he identifies just four editors as having created most of the content condemning the Hindu American Foundation (HAF) in ‘Wikivoice', i.e. the allegedly neutral perspective of Wikipedia. They are, on the contrary, shown to be highly one-sided.As Rindsberg mentions, Wikipedia being central to generativeAI, the damage is baked into the world-view of all AI applications. Truly Orwellian. Says Rindsberg: “four… anonymous accounts can have an enormous impact on what millions of people believe to be the truth.” “Over four years (2021-2025), editors systematically erased HAF's identity as an American civil rights group, transforming its Wikipedia page into a heavily curated dossier of accusations.”Trade, and how the Spice Route was far superior to the Silk RoadFinally, something that is becoming increasingly important: ensuring freedom of trade. This is more than just freedom of navigation, although I find it instructive that Emperor Rajendra Chola sent a huge fleet 1,001 years ago simply to open up the Straits of Malacca. India can make an active attempt to regain primacy in Indian Ocean trade, the whole Pax indica idea.Here is another example of the power of narrative: we have been led to believe that the Silk Road to China was some major highway of commerce between ancient Rome and ancient China, but it was a term coined only in 1877 by the German Ferdinand von Richthofen. There was no highway. A large caravan might take six months, and with 500 camels traversing treacherous deserts and braving bandits, it might carry a maximum of 100 tons. That is puny.In comparison, on the Spice Route, a single stitched ship from Muziris could carry 400 tons of ivory, pepper, silk, tigers and elephants; and the historian Strabo around 1 CE talks about fleets of 250 ships going from Alexandria to India on a six-week monsoon-powered journey. That is 100,000 tons of merchandise. No wonder Pliny the Elder complained that Rome's treasuries were being emptied of gold by India.Simple question: where are hoards of ancient Roman coins found in Asia? Answer: not along the Silk Road. The hoards are in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka.Today, it is possible for India to aspire to port-led development of trade, especially with the major ports at Trivandrum (Vizhinjam), Maharashtra (Vadhavan), and Great Nicobar (Galathea Bay). The underlying ‘software' of India's millennia-old trade competency was a ‘multi-protocol switch' as I pointed out, and today's India Stack can replicate that. Then there is the need for a blue-water navy: muscle to provide security on the Hormuz to Malacca sea-lanes.So there is a vision. How can India get there? This is where policy matters, as I discussed with policy expert Anuj Gupta. Policy, especially industrial policy, has had a bad reputation in certain circles because it was deemed to violate the virginal purity of classical capitalism. However, in a recent U-turn, even the World Bank admitted that industrial policy may not be all that bad, after all: the success of Japan, the Asian Tigers, and China can't be ignored.That leads to the question of why policy in India has produced mediocre outcomes, what is different now, and where the best use of policy might be.Industrial Policy: What went wrong in the past?There are many problems here. To begin with, the Soviet model, which Nehruvians swore by, was, in hindsight, a dead end. Second, there is the problem of governance: post-Independence bureaucrats have awkwardly borne the legacy of imperial hauteur and the needs of a developing society. Third, until recently, the bare necessities (food, electricity, road access) were not available to many citizens, and GDP growth was not their priority.There is also the culture of jugaad: of clever ways in which you overcome constraints through frugal improvisation and seat-of-the-pants making-do. This is fine for one-off things (e.g. converting a tractor trailer into a makeshift transport vehicle because your truck broke down), but it does not make for efficient and replicable industrial products. As The Economic Times said recently, it is time to junk jugaad. Quality has to become ingrained in people's minds.The issue of governance is significant: the bureaucracy and the judiciary have both under-performed, politicians, as everywhere, have been venal. It is said that China's growth can be attributed to the fact that its babus are engineers, and therefore with engineering ruthlessness move in straight lines. The US' babus are lawyers, and India's are humanities graduates. Well, engineers are not very good at second-order effects (eg. China's lurch from one-child policy to demographic collapse), but a little bit of ruthlessness is probably good.What is going reasonably well?There are a few modest success stories: for example, in electronics manufacturing or assembly. The PLIs (and DLIs) have produced the desired effort, with clusters of excellence where global suppliers have also set up shop (as they did earlier for the automobile industry in, say, Sriperumpudur). The fact that a lot of iPhones in the US are now imported from India is laudable, even though it may be derided as “screwdriver jobs”. That's where one starts the move up the value chain.The current semiconductor policy is a big hope, especially after the landmark agreement by the Dutch firm ASML with Tata Electronics in Dholera, Gujarat. Given that ASML has a near-monopoly position in Deep Ultraviolet Lithography (DUV) this is a major boost to India's chip ambitions. My recent conversation with AMD CTO Suraj Rengarajan went into India's chances to realize its ambitions.A recent announcement from Trivandrum-based fabless startup NetraSemi (a recipient of DLI) of the commercial availability of its edge AI chips is a landmark.Next is the newly announced plan for energy security revolving around both coal gasification and intensive offshore exploration. These fall squarely into the Atmanirbhar category: India simply cannot afford to have its energy held hostage by distant nations. It also needs distinctly Indian innovation.The Samudra Manthan initiative is also showing some promise. At least one out of three deep-water wells in the Andaman Sea (SriVijaya Puram-3) are reported to be showing the availability of natural gas, although it will take 5-10 years for this to be commercially available.What should the future look like for India's Industrial Policies?This of course is the hard question. Here is my personal perspective, and I accept that reasonable people may disagree. I think three areas need to be focused on, and will pay large dividends.* Drones and swarming software* Social media and AI stack* Maritime Trade and Blue-Water NavyI admit that these are not the only worthwhile industrial policies. Another is for copper, which would reverse the catastrophic effects of the closure of the Sterlite plant in Thoothukkudi, as the metal is an increasingly important component in electronics, data centers, etc., and far from being self-sufficient earlier, India now imports 50% of its needs. Another area of interest in quantum computing.There are also failures from which the right lessons need to be learned. The policy for EV batteries has apparently failed: according to Swarajya magazine, India has not been able to escape from near-total dependence on imported Chinese batteries.Drone swarmsI wrote recently that drones may well herald a step-change in warfare. For the moment, though, they are searching for their niche in offensive/defensive warfare. Drone hardware is already a well-trodden path with Chinese and other nations dominating it, although with IdeaForge, Paras, Garuda, IoTechworld Avigation etc., India is also making progress there. And India is indeed buying the hardware, $2 billion-worth, according to the Economic Times.But I believe the real game is in drone swarms. AI-based control software (similar to HiveMind) that would allow an entire swarm to act autonomously, just like a murmuration of starlings, would be the gold standard to aim for. Such a self-managing swarm would be virtually impossible to defend against, and I think India should put in place a PLI to support it, leveraging software capability in the country.Of course, drones are not just for military purposes, but also for commercial uses including things like logistics and agricultural use, such as precision delivery of fertilizer and pesticide to crops (as Garuda demonstrates). An Indian initiative that supports both drone hardware, and especially drone software, would be a potential winner.Digital Sovereignty: Social media and AI stackThere is a raging battle over which part of the AI stack India needs to invest in. As an old Unix hand, I believe the foundational model is not where the differentiation is. In analogy with Linux (the open-source Unix variant that was popularized by Linus Torvalds and an army of volunteers), there is little value in re-writing the operating system, but one can differentiate by building on top of it, or by judiciously choosing certain modules of it.Besides, the cost of building an entirely new foundational model would be astronomical and would consume the entire budget of IndiaAI Mission.Thus, my personal opinion is that the foundational model (especially when, it is believed, there are more or less open-source models available for free, e.g. Llama, DeepSeek) is not where India should expend its precious R&D resources, but on the layers of the stack above it. It is the data that matters, as Larry Ellison apparently suggests too.But there is the interesting counter-example of Sarvam AI which is producing its own sovereign model: multi-lingual and presumably otherwise tuned to Indian needs. The question is whether this can survive when hundreds of billions worth of capital investment are going to the US Big Tech companies and their Chinese rivals. The sad history of Koo, a Twitter rival, comes to mind. So does Arattai, a Whatsapp rival, whose popularity has waned. .A well-thought-through industrial policy on generativeAI is therefore essential. The status quo ante is unsustainable; given the fact that Sarvam has also found it difficult to raise funds in the US, it is worth pondering whether a China-style massive subsidy is the answer. And where should it go, into foundational models or into the layers of the stack above it? The answer is “both”, but with priority to the latter.Here is where I would prioritize investments, in order:* Vertical applications in specific domains: e.g. defense, healthcare, agriculture, governance (particularly in the judiciary and in ease of doing business in the bureaucracy)* Fine-tuning and customization: for the needs of the Indian context, e.g. multi-linguality under Bhashini* Compute infrastructure: GPUs, sovereign and protected indian datasets* Sovereign Small-Language Models such as Sarvam AIAs mentioned above, at the moment India's data is being sucked up for free by US Big Tech. In addition, there is the real danger that Indic Knowledge Systems will be mined and digested, as has happened to yoga, pranayama, etc., which have been given Western analogs and nomenclature, as in Pilates, ‘coherent breathing' etc.These two problems are connected, and both need to be tackled in parallel. Social media is being weaponized against India, and this is magnified by the legacy media in a positive feedback loop. Three examples: one was the rage against Adani based on the dubious research of Hindenburg, which then went under; the second is Bloomberg's reckless accusation about gold reserves being sold by the RBI, which they were forced to retract, but social media and Wikipedia will remember it; the third is the meteoric (media) rise of the Cockroach Janata Party.Trade using major ports, Digital Public Infrastructure and a blue water navyUsing trade for competitive advantage is an age-old tactic. The trade tiffs between the US and China are examples of this: we are witnessing war by other means. Many nations are getting into this act, and India does have some advantages, partly based on geography. Maritime trade is likely to continue to be the key, which makes naval chokepoints the big story, but not the only story to watch out for.The major aspects of maritime trade include infrastructure, the digital “multi-protocol switch”, and security. On the one hand, India is developing not only major container ports, and the road/rail links to get to them, and the industrial goods to ship out through them, but also a serious shipbuilding industry, which was one of India's historical strengths. Then it used to be stitched wooden ships (teak beams lashed together with coconut rope). Now it's modern steel ships.There are the big, efficient new ports, which can now turn ships around with Singapore-like efficiency; the proposed third aircraft carrier group which will make it possible to patrol the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal at the time; the Air-Independent Propulsion diesel submarines and nuclear submarines that can monitor (and if necessary, deny) narrow straits; the sale of supersonic Brahmos cruise missiles to the Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia (and Cyprus) that create ship-denial zones: all this is muscle.And the final piece, the ‘software' for trade, the “multi-protocol switch”. This last is complicated. Its value is underestimated by many. But this is what enables friction-less transactions between various unrelated parties. The India Stack and the Digital Public Infrastructure can be utilized to provide such a facility. But it is complex enough to need significant study as to what is possible, and how to roll it out.Second-order effectsIn closing, it is worth considering some of what the (unintended) consequences of these proposals may be. Let us note that the G2 has no interest in allowing India to grow and make it a G3. They will do everything in their power to kneecap India, by all means possible.There is also a certain derision for India in some circles. Here is a generic western opinion on why China got rich, and India didn't. Well, the author doesn't consider the second-order effects of the wholesale destruction of Chinese civilization: that is a tradeoff Indians may not prefer for themselves. We all know how China's well-intentioned One Child Policy turned into demographic collapse within a few years. Besides, as The Economist asks, “China is innovative. Its economy is a mess. Which will win out?”This is why I think planning for these second-order effects is important. We tend to ignore them because they seem counterintuitive or unlikely, but Nassim Taleb has sensitized us to how low-probability Black Swan events can have grave consequences.As an example, attempting digital sovereignty may have unwelcome side-effects: Big Tech have the first-mover advantage and network effects and there are increasing returns to scale. They will surely make it hard for a new player to break in. Besides, the large investments in data centers and GCCs that they are making in India would make it very difficult for them to be ejected with a “Great Indian Firewall”.Even taxing their capture of Indian data will be complicated; not to mention that they have demonstrated that they can happily violate copyright laws with no consequence; therefore they will find ways to chew up and spit out Indian Knowledge Systems, and essentially re-colonize India. Digital colonialism is not a threat, it is a reality today, and it is a consequence of the relatively open Indian system.In addition, there is a malign group, the “barbarians within” as Arnold Toynbee once put it, who are ready to sacrifice Indian sovereignty for a pittance.Given all this, it will be very difficult to put in place serious measures to gain digital independence; and the narrative-peddling is likely to gain further momentum: just consider the caste allegations that have haunted BAPS in the US (despite the cases being dismissed by the US DoJ), the Cisco Systems case where, again, the case was dismissed, but the narrative continues, and the persistent efforts in various US states to turn caste into a weapon to bludgeon Indians.Another sensitive issue is that of the multi-protocol switch for trade. While from an Indian point of view, it eases trade and harks back to a Golden Age of Indic maritime commerce, but that will be viewed elsewhere very differently, for instance by the US as an attempt to de-dollarize. The US has jealousy guarded – with very good reasons that we will not go into here – the dollar's reserve currency status.We have also seen what happened to those who attempt to hurt the dollar's primacy: in 1985, the Plaza Accord devalued the dollar, and that was a body blow to Japan's economy, which has not recovered its mojo to this day. Later, Iraq's Saddam Hussein and Libya's Muammar Gaddafi both had ideas about replacing the petro-dollar with, respectively, the Euro and a new pan-African gold-backed currency. We know what happened to them.If the India Stack multi-protocol switch is perceived as an alternative to the US dollar, there may be grave consequences. Therefore, it should be conceived and deployed only as an adjunct to it and to the almighty SWIFT settlement system.ConclusionIndia is at a crossroads now. Even though the Hormuz closure is a serious problem, if it plays its cards right, adversity can be turned into opportunity across a variety of perspectives. The key is Atmanirbhar, self-reliance. If India can now implement a crash program of industrial policy, and at the same time overcome an ingrained Third-World tendency to cut corners, it can finally break free of the years of underperformance, what I called the Nehruvian Penalty in 2004.It is possible, but there are caveats: unforeseen consequences. Hic sunt dracones. Here be dragons. Be afraid. Be very afraid.3700 words, 7 June 2026This is episode 192 of the Shadow Warrior podcast. Here is a companion AI-generated slideshow.

Episode 17 - Martha Hammel and Tasia Pointsatte: Colorado and Beyond Martha and Tasia drop in to this episode of the podcast to educate us all on the future of psychedelic medicines through the lens of what's been happening in Colorado as a result of Prop 122, the Natural Medicine Act. Colorado has really laid the groundwork for all other states to follow and both Martha and Tasia know better than anyone as to what's working and what isn't. Also, they are the chairs of the Aspen Psychedelic Symposium which takes place on June 6th and 7th in Aspen. Their leadership has gone on to shape one of the great psychedelic gatherings on the planet! Martha Hammel is an advocate, activist, and educator in the psychedelic space. She holds a master's degree in nutrition in which she focused on the intersection of emotional trauma, addiction, and gut health. In her private coaching practice she supports clients through transformation healing, through nutrition, functional movement, psychedelic integration, and spiritual connection. She supports her local community as the executive director of the Aspen Psychedelic Resource Center, which provides community education and outreach regarding the safe use of plant medicine in the Roaring Fork Valley. Additionally, she provides integration support at 4 Winds farm, a women's transformational recovery center in Glenwood springs, and is an advisor for the National Psychedelic Association, supporting the psychedelic industry as it emerges in Oregon and Colorado. Tasia Poinsatte serves as the Colorado Director of the Healing Advocacy Fund (HAF), a nonprofit that works to protect and expand safe, affordable state-regulated access to psychedelic healing for all who need it. Her role involves extensive community engagement, bringing a range of perspectives, knowledge and experience into Colorado's policy process to set up a state-regulated psilocybin therapy program that is responsive to the diverse needs of those who will seek guidance and care in the new licensed framework. Prior to joining HAF, Tasia conducted research and advised strategy on progressive campaigns and causes in the US and internationally. Her background in qualitative and quantitative public opinion research informs her understanding of how to navigate and engage a tapestry of experiences, values and worldviews, seeking where possible to find the common threads that connect us.

Við kynntum okkur nýja herferð Íslandsdeildar Amnesty International sem kallst Mannúðin mun sigra - Virðum réttindi fólks á flótta. Markmið hennar er að mæta ótta og rangfærslum með staðreyndum, mannlegum sögum og samtali sem byggir á samkennd og mannréttindum. Anna Lúðvíksdóttir, framkvæmdastjóri Íslandsdeildarinnar, kom í þáttinn og sagði okkur betur frá herferðinni. Við kynntum okkur svo umdeilt íþróttamót. Um helgina fór fram viðburður sem er kallaður "Enhanced games“ sem stundum er kallaður „steraleikarnir“ upp á íslensku. Þar var keppt í nokkrum greinum - eins og sundi, spretthlaupi og lyftingum.

Herkese merhaba! "Yapay Zeka'da Bu Hafta"nın yepyeni ve dopdolu bir bölümüyle daha karşınızdayız. Bu hafta biraz dertliyiz; yapay zekanın hayatımızı kolaylaştırması harika ama beynimizi, özellikle de frontal lobumuzu nasıl tembelleştirdiğini ve bilişsel teslimiyet yaşayıp yaşamadığımızı masaya yatırıyoruz. Sadece bu kadar da değil! Kullanıcısından habersiz eski sevgiliye mesaj atan yapay zeka ajanlarından, teknoloji devlerinin ilk çeyrekte yaptığı 130 milyar dolarlık devasa yatırımlara kadar sektörde fırtınalar estiren gündem maddelerini değerlendirdik.

Hat sanatının Kuran'ı en güzel bir şekilde yazma kaygısıyla geliştiği söylenebilir. Ancak hat sanatının Araplarda değil de Türkler içerisinde mükemmel bir hale gelmesi Türkler'in İslam sanatına ve ilimlerine verdikleri önem ve değerden kaynaklanmaktadır. Hat sanatının bilinen en eski Üstadı Bağdatlı İbn-i Mukle'dir. Henüz o zamanlar Arap yazıları köşeli ve geometrik formlara sahip kûfi yazı şeklinde idi. Miladi 1200'lü yıllarda ise, Halife Mustasimi'nin hizmetkârı olduğu için Yakut-u Mustasimi olarak adlandırılan büyük sanatkâr, hat sanatının bugün “Aklam-ı Sitte” olarak isimlendirilen altı çeşit yazısını geliştirdi. Bunlar; tevki, rika, muhakkak, reyhani, sülüs ve nesih hatlarıdır. Bütün bu yazı çeşitleri Selçuklu ve Osmanlı hattatları elinde ölümsüz sanat eserlerine dönüşmüştür. Ayrıca İranlıların kullandığı talik yazı da vardır ki, yine Osmanlı hattatları bu yazı çeşidinde de çok mükemmel eserler vermişlerdir. Bu sebeple “Kur'an, Mekke'de indi; Mısır'da okundu; İstanbul'da yazıldı” vecizesi meşhur olmuştur. Gerçekten de dünyanın en büyük hattatları İstanbul'da yaşamıştır. Hat sanatının tarihinde pek çok büyük hattat bu topraklarda yetişmiştir. Sultan II. Bayezid'ın büyük iltifatlarına mazhar olan Amasyalı Şeyh Hamdullah Çelebi (1429-1520) bu sanatta en önemli bir ekoldür. Hafız Osman (1642-1698) ise yazdığı Kur'an ile meşhur olmuştur. Bugün bile dünyanın pek çok yerinde onun hattı esas alınarak Kur'an-ı Kerîm basılmaktadır. III. Ahmet ve II. Mahmut gibi bazı Osmanlı padişahları da hat sanatı ile ilgilendiler ve yazdıkları yazılar hala büyük camilerimizin duvarlarını süslemektedir. (Doç. Dr. Rasim Soylu, Zafer Dergisi, Aralık 2020, 528.

Gönlüme itminan düştü. Cuma vakti. Buhara'dayız. Şah-ı Nakşibend k.s. Hazretlerinin huzurunda. Hafız Efendinin okuduğu Kur'an-ı Kerim külliyenin dört bir yanına yayılıyor. Kuşlar ilahi kelama ihtiram ve eşlik edercesine hem mütevazı hem cıvıl cıvıl. Nispete tâkâti yetmeyenlerin imdadına envai çeşit çiçekler yetişiyor. Güneş en latif haliyle inceden mütebessim. Onlarca farklı beldeden yüzlerce mümin akın akın Camiye doluşuyorlar.

Where Sully and Haf can truly make an impact.

Kelâmî Dergâhı şeyhi ve 32. Nakşî Postnişini olan Muhammed Es'ad Efendi (k.s.), 1848 (Hicri 1264) yılında bugün Irak sınırları içinde kalan Musul'un Erbil kasabasında doğdu. Muhammed Es'ad Erbili (k.s.), Nakşibendi tarikatının Hâlidiyye Dergâhı Postnişîni olan babası Muhammed Saîd Efendi'nin terbiyesinde ehl-i tarik bir ailede yetişti. Erbil ve Deyr'deki zamanın alimlerinden ilim öğrendi ve 1870 yılında yirmi üç yaşında zahiri ilimlerden icazet (diploma) aldı. Taha el-Hariri'ye intisap etti. Beş yılda seyri sulukünu tamamlayarak, hilafet aldı ve Hacca gitti. Hacc dönüşü Şeyhi vefat edince, İstanbul'a geldi. Fatih Camii'nde Hafız Divanı ile Molla Cami'nin Lüccetü'l-Esrar kitabını okuttu. Ünü kısa zamanda etrafa yayıldı. II. Abdülhamid Han'ın damadı Halid Paşa kendisini saraya davet ederek sohbetlerinden istifade etti. Bu arada Meclis-i Meşayih üyeliğine ve akabinde Kelamî Dergâhı Şeyhliği'ne tayin edildi. Kenz-ül İrfan adlı hadis kitabını neşretti ve büyük ilgi gördü. Abdulhamid Han tarafından vazifeli olarak Erbil'e gönderildi. Şeyh Muhammed Es'ad Erbili (k.s.)'un en önemli özelliklerinden biri “Tarikatı, Şeriatın yaşanabilmesi için bir araç olduğunu ısrarla vurgulamış ve uygulamış olmasıdır”. Bu konuda “Tarikatın esası Şeriattır” demiştir. İkinci özelliği ise Peygamber Efendimiz (s.a.v)'e olan büyük aşkı ve sünnet-i seniyyeyi yaşama konusunda gösterdiği titizlik ve gayretidir. Tekkelerin kapatılmasından sonra hiç sokağa çıkmamaya karar vererek, Erenköy Kazasker'de satın aldığı köşkünde inzivaya çekildi. Ancak evi sürekli polis gözetiminde tutuldu. 23 Aralık 1930'da Menemen vakasıyla ilgili tutuklanarak Menemen'e sevk edildi. İdam talebiyle yargılandı. İlerlemiş yaşı sebebiyle cezası müebbede çevrildi. Oğlu Ali Efendi idam edildi. Menemen'de askeri hastanede tedavisi yapıldığı sırada 3 Mart'ı 4 Mart'a bağlayan gece zehirlenerek Şehid edilmiştir. Cenazesi ailesine verilmeyerek Menemen'de defnedildi. Es'ad Efendi (k.s.)'nun yetiştirdiği en önemli talebesi ve yolunu devam ettiren zât, Hz. Mahmud Sami Ramazanoğlu (k.s.)'dur. (Son Asır Ehl-i Sünnet Âlimleri s. 120)

Mindfulness'ın sadece “anda kalmak” ve “yargısız olmak” olmadığını; hatırlama, etik ayrım yapabilme, dikkat toplama ve bilişsel bütünlük kurma boyutları da içerdiğini vurguluyor. Ayrıca mindfulness ile konsantrasyon arasındaki farkı, Budist gelenekte amacın yüksek bilinç halleri peşinde koşmak değil zihnin ve bedenin geçici hallerini açıkça görmek olduğunu anlatıyor. Bölüm, mindfulness'ın sadece terapi aracı değil, daha net görmek ve daha doğru yaşamak için de önemli olduğuna değinip meditasyon pratiğiyle kapanıyor.

Flashback'ler, dissosiyasyon ve güvenli ilişki kavramları; nörobilim, psikoterapi ve mindfulness perspektifinden ele alınıyor. Yayında ayrıca zihnin yalnızca kafatası içinde değil, bedende ve ilişkide var olduğu, şifalanmanın ise çoğu zaman güvenli bir ilişki alanında mümkün olduğu vurgulanıyor. Epigenetik üzerinden travmanın nesiller arası aktarımı konuşulurken, yayının ikinci bölümünde yer alan nefes farkındalığı meditasyonu ile bedensel regülasyonu destekleyen bir pratik alan açılıyor.

As the Vegetable and Berry Specialist at the University of Vermont for 35 years, Vern has a lot of experience with helping growers improve their high tunnel tomato production. One of the best ways to find out what is working on actual farms is with a survey- in 2024 Vern and his team did a survey of 48 tunnel tomato growers (heated and unheated) that included growing practices and yields, in order to correlate the best practices to the best yields.In this conversation, we talk about the conclusions we can draw from this survey, highlighting the best practices and prioritizing the smallest changes that can have the biggest impact on yields. We discuss everything from variety selection to grafting, root zone heating, planting density and biological controls. Ultimately, the biggest changes came from: using the long-term high tunnel soil test, adding up to 4 drip lines per bed, improving ventilation with gable end vents and HAF fans, and automating roll-up sides. We break it all down with Vern and if you'd like to see the slides made from his study results, they're in the show notes below. Connect With Guest:Website with slides from the study: newenglandvfc.orgInstagram: @uvmextcommhort Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support:Seven Springs Farm Supply is a farm-based supply company focused on serving market gardeners and has been in business for 35 years.

前几个月突然想起了袁泉。在我上大学那几年，她曾经在姚谦的企划之下玩票似的发表了一些音乐作品，却是各个方面都可圈可点。找出《Short Stay》那张 CD 重温《一个人旅行》，没过几天就听到了薛诒丹的新专辑《孤独金鱼图鉴》里唱着“厌倦一个人旅行”（全专最喜欢的一首歌 btw），只觉得相差多年、并无关系的两首歌、两个女声，却彼此形成了很好玩的反差。 一个人，不是一个人，都没关系。现在只想出去走走。 曲目单： (00:00) CKTRL - rush (01:53) Dylan Henner - We Walked all the Way to the Lake and The Water Was So Still We Jumped in Naked (06:15) Sofie Birch, Antonina Nowacka - Suosan (09:39) Tom Skinner - Kaleidoscopic Visions (13:21) Kutiman - Dreams in Aspamia (16:52) Norma Suely, Luiz Bonfa - A Voz Do Violão (18:48) 袁泉 - 一个人旅行 (23:02) Passepartout Duo - From Tbilisi (26:48) Speakers Corner Quartet feat.

Video https://youtu.be/qrw0SEbszFYThe Eric Kim 723.4 kg (1,595 lb) rack-pull at ~71 kg bodyweight is extraordinary because it shatters every known ratio boundary of human pulling strength.  A rack pull is a partial-range deadlift from elevated pins—usually at or above the knee—that removes the hardest mechanical segment of the lift and lets an athlete handle far greater loads.  Still, Kim's self-reported 10.19× body-weight figure dwarfs anything in sanctioned history.  For context: Hafþór Björnsson's verified 510 kg full deadlift equals 2.5× BW; Rauno Heinla's 580 kg 18-inch pull equals 3.6× BW.  Kim's number is roughly four times that relative intensity.The lift, posted on his own sites and YouTube in October 2025 with “verification pending,” shows the bar loaded beyond 700 kg and bending heavily.  No federation or third-party audit yet confirms it, so it sits in the domain of independent documentation.  The math checks: 723.4 ÷ 71 = 10.19 ×; 723.4 kg = 1,595 lb.  Biomechanically, a mid-thigh rack pull shortens bar travel to perhaps 20 cm, cutting torque demands on hips and knees by ≈70 %.  Mechanical work falls to roughly 1,400 J—about half that of a 510 kg full deadlift—yet the axial load exceeds 7,000 N, imposing spinal compression near 1 MN.  Such tension levels push human connective-tissue and neural-drive limits but remain physically possible for brief static exertion.Because rack pulls are unsanctioned, credibility depends on audit quality.  A verifiable packet would require:• Pin-height measurement in cm, filmed before and after.• On-camera weigh-in.• Plate-by-plate inventory with make/model and post-lift re-weigh.• Continuous multi-angle footage from loading to unload.• Independent witnesses signing an attempt sheet.• Public release of uncut files and metadata hashes.Only then could the number become a reproducible benchmark akin to the standardized 18-inch Silver Dollar record.Why it feels “insane” stems from scaling laws: muscle strength grows with cross-sectional area (~mass²⁄³), so a 71 kg lifter should, by theory, move only ~450 kg at best in that range.  Surpassing 700 kg therefore implies extreme neural efficiency, connective adaptation, and precise leverage optimization.  At 10× bodyweight, Kim effectively endures the equivalent of ten times Earth's gravity for a fraction of a second—something normally reserved for hydraulic rigs or planetary analogies.  Within physics it's marginally feasible; within human precedent, it's unprecedented.  Until audited, it stands as a documented but unsanctioned partial-lift feat—an edge-case example of how biomechanics, geometry, and digital self-recording can merge to challenge the perceived upper limits of human strength.  Summary length: ≈3,480 characters.

For this episode we have something a bit different for you. It's a special episode for Navratri, originally published in 2023. We've interviewed several members of our extended HAF team as well as members of the Hindu American community about how they celebrate Navratri today, what they remember about the holiday growing up, and how their understanding of it has changed over the years. What you'll hear are excepts from longer interviews our staff writer Syama Allard did with each person.Here are the full versions of some of these interviews, as well as some interviews that didn't make it into the episode. https://www.hinduamerican.org/blog/on-celebrating-navaratri-and-dussehra-through-the-lens-of-bhutanese-refugee-bhuwan-pyakurelhttps://www.hinduamerican.org/blog/on-celebrating-navaratri-and-dussehra-through-the-lens-of-hindu-american-samir-kalrahttps://www.hinduamerican.org/blog/on-celebrating-navaratri-and-dussehra-through-the-lens-of-iskcon-communications-director-anuttama-dashttps://www.hinduamerican.org/blog/on-celebrating-navaratri-and-dussehra-through-the-lens-of-hindu-american-kavita-pallod Hosted on Acast.

For the Hindu American Foundation's organizational birthday, coming up later this month, Mat McDermott, Suhag Shukla, Samir Kalra, and Raj Rao sat down to discuss and debunk some of the craziest things activists and adversaries say HAF does, believes, and sets out to do. Is HAF funding genocide in India? Are we trying to hide the Nazi origins of Hindutva? Fighting to preserve the right of Hindus to discriminate based on caste? Pinkwashing our Hindu supremacy? Working for the Government of India? Hating Sikhs and Catholics? No, no, no, no, no, and no. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ward 3 councillor Shanon Zachidniak visits the subbasement to talk about her "Smart Investments for a Sustainable Regina" motion. Also discussed during this Very Serious Meeting: Changes to the budget process, Electrical buses!, What's up with that big borrowing meeting?, How's HAF doing? and an update on the free transit for highschool kids pilot program. Theme by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR, AccessNow community radio.

This week we've got another special episode with HAF's Devala Rees. This time we're talking about why HAF has been using the term Hindu Dharma Traditions wherever it makes sense, rather than Hinduism. Plus how many different traditions there are under that banner, their similarities, differences, and how they relate to other dharma traditions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode we speak with HAF's own Easan Katir about cryptocurrency and Bitcoin investing from a dharmic perspective, plus AI, the energy demands of both of those, and more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
