This is the latest episode of the free DDW narrated podcast, titled “Where are scientists making waves in drug discovery?”, which covers three articles written for DDW Volume 24 – Issue 3, Summer 2023. They are called: “How pharma is targeting advances in Alzheimer's treatments”, “The start-up disrupting the field of women's reproductive health” and “India: Why is the country ramping up drug discovery research?” Cognition Therapeutics recently completed the enrolment of its Phase II SEQUEL trial for patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. The focus of the trial is to test Cognition Therapeutics' experimental drug, CT1812 for patients with dementia with Lewy Bodies and dry age-related macular degeneration. In the first article, Reece Armstrong speaks to Lisa Ricciardi, CEO of Cognition Therapeutics, to learn about what the company hopes to achieve with CT1812. In the second article, DDW's Diana Spencer speaks to Alok Javali, CSO of dawn-bio, a new addition to BioInnovation Institute's (BII) Venture Lab acceleration programme, about the lack of innovation in women's reproductive health and the company's plans to fill the vacuum. In the third article, I take a deeper look into why India is ramping up drug discovery research, and explores the country's innovation hubs of interest.
Guest: Amita Ghosh, Psychologist & Integrative Mental Health Expert Episode Summary: In this profound episode, Ambassador Elisha sits down with the remarkable Amita Ghosh, a seasoned psychologist whose journey from India to the United States has uniquely positioned her to blend Eastern philosophy with Western psychological practice. With over three decades of experience in mental health, Amita shares her evolution from working with youth to becoming a specialist in adult therapy, trauma, and couples counseling. Her deep respect for Indian philosophy and holistic healing has led her to challenge the symptom-focused lens of Western psychology—advocating instead for addressing the root causes of human suffering. This conversation is not only eye-opening but soul-stirring, as Amita dives into: ✅ Her early influences growing up in India ✅ Why traditional Western psychology often misses the mark ✅ The danger of over-diagnosing in mental health ✅ Her love for EMDR therapy and the transformative power of flow in healing ✅ How she's now helping people reconnect with ancient wisdom through retreats in India Ambassador Elisha opens the episode with a powerful metaphor of the mango tree—symbolizing the fruitfulness that emerges when one invests in themselves, a metaphor beautifully fitting for Amita's life and work. Takeaway: If you're seeking healing beyond the surface and believe in the power of integrating mind, body, and soul, this episode is your call to deeper transformation.

What prevents women from seeking safe, legal abortions? Studies show that the awareness about abortion and its legality is very low among people. To add to the confusion, the implementation of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques Act, 1994 or PCPNDT Act which makes sex selection illegal gives anti-abortion messages. This is the fifth and final episode of a series Matter of Choice, a series that explores how women face medical, legal and social barriers to abortions. Suno India's Menaka Rao spoke to Saraswati Sahu, a leader with the Chhatisgarh Mahila Mukti Morcha that works on the rights of workers, who talks about her own abortion stories and how she used to feel abortion was illegal, and that she had to undergo abortion surreptitiously. Menaka also talked to Pritam Potdar, the managing director with the Pune-based non-profit, Samyak Communication and Research Centre, which works on gender rights. Menaka also spoke to Vinoj Manning, the CEO of the international non profit Ipas Development Foundation and his colleague, Samina Parveen who works as a specialist in the research and evaluation team at IPAS which recently released a survey on the attitudes of Indians about abortion.

Can a Muslim university be an Indian university? These are the first words in Dr Laurence Gautier's book Between Nation and ‘Community' - Muslim Universities & Indian Politics after Partition, in which she explores the history, nature and contribution of India's leading Muslim universities - Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) and Jamia Milia Islamia (JMI), two institutions which in her words acted, “as crucibles for competing conceptions of ‘Indian Muslimness' in post-independence India.” This MBM conversation is with researcher and author, Laurence Gautier where we discuss how these universities, their members and students played key roles in recognising the needs of a new India in terms of education, nation-building and social reform. We dive deeper into debates and contestation of ideas around the Indian Muslim identity that continues to evolve and the ways in which many figures, men and women, both worked towards making it more encompassing and holistic, despite the internal and external challenges. The conversation also sheds some light on caste-based politics, women's participation in universities, and the possible future roles of both these universities in the making of modern India. In this episode we use abbreviations - ‘AMU' for Aligarh Muslim University and ‘JMI' for Jamia Millia Islamia.About Dr Laurence Gautier:Laurence Gautier is a researcher at the Centre de Sciences Humaines (CSH), New Delhi. She completed her PhD in History at the University of Cambridge and taught at O.P. Jindal Global University, Sonipat before joining CSH. She writes on Muslim politics, secularism, nation-building and university politics in post-independence India. Between Nation and Community is her first monograph.

I recently had breakfast with a new friend who is a missionary in India. He's been a coaching student of mine for a long time and made a ton of money doing traditional house wholesaling in Indianapolis... from India! My friend is a white American missionary doing work in an area where it's illegal to be Christian, and he's still doing deals. Lately, he's slowed down with houses, so I've been helping him transition to vacant land. I just want to encourage you guys that if this guy can do deals from India, a place where there's severe persecution, anybody can do deals. My friend does deals in the US from abroad without meeting buyers and sellers. What's your excuse? There's no reason why you cannot do deals in your backyard, no matter where you are. Let's get busy and make some offers.What's Inside:—How my friend does house and land deals in the US from India—Why there's no excuse for you to do your own deals from your backyard

In November last year, India’s female labour force participation rate fell to its lowest points at 6.9%. While 67% of all men of working age are employed, only 9% of all women of working age are employed in the country. The longer term trends suggest that female labour force participation rates in India have been puzzling. Women’s participation in the labor force is influenced and affected by many socio-economic factors such as how far they study, their age of marriage, urbanisation and others.

In November last year, India's female labour force participation rate fell to its lowest points at 6.9%. While 67% of all men of working age are employed, only 9% of all women of working age are employed in the country. The longer term trends suggest that female labour force participation rates in India have been puzzling. Women's participation in the labor force is influenced and affected by many socio-economic factors such as how far they study, their age of marriage, urbanisation and others.

Welcome back to Prodcast as we continue our "Why Products Fail" series. On today's episode, I spoke with Aditya Kakrania, multi-time startup founder. We talked through Aditya's first startup, Foomore, how it grew through clever growth hacks and community building but how timing and environmental issues brought Foomore to its knees. This is a great lesson in why startups need to consider the fragility of its business, especially when the business is overly reliant on a very specific market. We also talked about the important topic of knowing when to give up pivot or persevere and the importance of having a strong founding team to navigate what could be a very emotional and challenging decision. Let's get started. Here's what we discussed: How Aditya got started in entrepreneurship and his family legacy Aditya's fascination with numbers and why he majored in finance and got his CA license (similar to CPA in the US) Why he started his current startup, Scoar and the problem he's trying to solve in helping shape career paths for aspiring professionals in India primarily The first startup that Aditya launched, starting with a food truck How Aditya and an old friend decided to disrupt the in-dining experience in India Why the best marketing to land the initial restaurants was free, focused on social proofing The undisputed importance of talking to your customers or prospective customers Why you need to understand who your "customer" actually is and how it might span wider than the initial customer you have in mind The impact that major competitors and brands can have on your success or failure How Aditya tried to fend off major competitors and extreme environmental challenges The importance of team and how personal relationships can be a hinderance, even when you think they would be an advantage The difficulty of trying to run a startup part-time How Aditya pivoted from the FoodTech space to EdTech Connect with Aditya: Aditya's LinkedIn Scoar LinkedIn Page Scoar Website --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/productmanagementlessons/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/productmanagementlessons/support
It should be obvious to any watchful believer that the violent elements in the riots in some cities were instigated by the devil. It is Satan that comes to kill, steal, and destroy. (John 10:10) All three elements of Satan’s agenda for the earth were seen in the riots and violence perpetrated by Black Lives Matters members and supporters, and by other violent groups such as Antifa. Of course, there were political reasons for the attacks. There is a mad push to destabilize the government, law enforcement, and to establish socialism by force. Hatred for all things Trump by the Democrats and the far left is the main reason in the natural, but there are spiritual implications for all this evil manifested in the streets of America. Satan failed to cause the Coronavirus pandemic to permanently shut down freedom and bring the earth under a one world government. His next step was to then let violence flow in the land and see if he can shut down a country that was based on Biblical principles (America) in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Our country was not based on white supremacy as was Nazi Germany. We had godly founding fathers that believed that God was in the establishment of America. “Oh, but black slavery was a part of American society back then,” some way retort angrily. Yes, it was, as it also a part European society and in many other nations. Slavery was an ungodly institution, and it eventually led to the Civil war in America where the Democrat South fought to keep their slaves, and the Republican North fought to make the black slaves free in every respect. Yes, that part is usually ignored by many spouting off that America is essentially and fundamentally racist, a statement that is as big a lie as Satan! The Democrat party was established to continue slavery, as opposed to the Republican party that believed that all men were created equal according to our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and even the Declaration of Independence. Slavery was a part of society going back millennia. It was and is wrong to enslave other human beings, but that is not the whole truth. Many were made slaves after their country was defeated in a time of war. The vanquished often became the slaves of the nation that conquered it. Nebuchadnezzar and the conquest of all the land of Israel is a case in point. Babylonian troops conquered the land and took many thousands back to Babylon to become slaves of the kingdom. Read 2 Chronicles chapter 29-31, the Book of Daniel, and of course, the last few chapters of the book of Jeremiah. Slavery was a very ancient institution. Slaves have existed among all colors and creeds. How about the truth that people of fairer skin were slaves of the darker skinned Egyptians? Egyptians made slaves of many tribes and people. They made slaves of the Israelites. Do you remember? It was not all black slavery. MANY were slaves that were not black Africans. It is ignorance of world history to believe that. Did you know that Nazi Germany made slaves of Jews, Poles, and many others that were not black? Read the truth in history. Don’t fall for the lies of the revisionists! Did you know that slavery was not all forced? Have you read it in the Scripture? Many sold themselves into slavery voluntarily so they could have protection, food, and lodging. Read the Bible! The Roman Empire enslaved MANY different countries and peoples. The Persians did it. The Assyrians did it. The Philistines did it. Ancient Israel did it.The emperors of China did it. The Umayyads did it. The list goes on and on, because all ancient nations that defeated another nation took in slaves. That my friend is a historical fact. Yet, it was ONLY in the United States of America that long and bloody battles were fought to the death during the American Civil War to liberate black slaves from oppression. Why? Because one of the founding principles of our country is that we are all created equal as human beings. Black, white, or GREEN, it matters not what is the color of your skin. It is an unalienable right in our country. A bloody Civil War was not fought not in India, Russia, China, Japan, Europe, Canada, South America, Mexico, Asia, or any other nation to assure constitutional freedoms of the black people. Only in America! Don’t let leftist propaganda fool you! America is one of the least racist countries on the planet. Yes, there are a few crazies in America that believe in white supremacy, but not many when compared to other countries. In some countries, there is a strict caste system in place, few women’s rights, and some form of slavery still exists. If you don’t believe that then you probably haven’t travelled much to other parts of the world, and you believe all communist and leftist Democrat demonic propaganda. I know people from other countries that have travelled extensively, and they confirm that America is one of the least racist countries on planet Earth. South Africa was once controlled by apartheid where blacks were non-citizens. When apartheid was abolished and blacks came into power, now the opposite is true. South Africa continues to be a violently racist country of blacks ruling over the whites, often with violence, and inequality. Now whites are the oppressed minority in South Africa. Where is the outcry against the oppression of the white South Africans? Ask anybody that is from certain Muslim countries about women’s rights in their country. Ask them about their prospective tolerance of other religions. Generally, there is NONE. Many women are not allowed vote, hold high government office, or even get a driver’s license. Ask anybody that has left communist China if there is freedom of speech or if you are free to have religious services. Try burning the Chinese flag in open protest. See what that will get you. I totally disagree in burning U. S. flags, and I think there should be some penalty for doing so to a national symbol, but not long-term imprisonment, banishment, or death! Why is it that one caste will not marry into another caste in India? Why are there violent clashes between Hindus and those of other religions in India? Tolerance? Again, the list could go on for many pages. Quit believing the humongous lie that America is fundamentally racist because it is not! How come NONE of the European countries have ever had a black man serve as their president or prime minister? Why has India never had a Christian as president? Why has Saudi Arabia never had any high governmental position held by a woman or a Christian? Why has communist China condemned or imprisoned (or tortured and killed) dissenting groups and voices in their country? Why have they suppressed Christianity, Islam, and many other religious groups? The same goes for North Korea and other countries. Shut up your mouth if you want to tell me America is racist! Whoever believes that nonsense is stupid beyond belief! America is exceptionally low on any racist and oppressive scale! I think the most oppression we have had here recently is from Democrat governors and mayors during the Covid-19 shutdowns. They were a shoe in for communist and totalitarian control of the people. It was and is disgusting to watch. They refused over and over to stop their oppressive measures. They loved the power to control the populace and didn’t want it to stop! They wanted to control and shut everything down, if possible, until the election, as a political scheme to use it to condemn and malign Trump. It was converted into a political weapon, but then something totally unexpected happened. George Floyd died during his arrest from a heart attack and there was fentanyl and other trash in his system. Did you know he was a convicted felon? We only see video at the tail end of his arrest. I would like to see the entire arrest video and all the details come out before judging law enforcement. I remember the incident with Rodney King and how the media played ONLY the tail end of the video showing Rodney King being beaten with batons by the police. Yet, when it went to trial the officers were acquitted when the whole video was seen and showed how the police officers did everything they could restrain King FIRST, and only escalated to batons when King was acting like a crazed animal and resisted arrest. Do you remember the riots then? Do you remember the looting? It was all unjustified and it was demonically inspired violence. Peaceful protest for the death of George Floyd have turned violent because Antifa and other terrorist groups got involved for political reasons. What did all this rioting do with the quarantines, and all the stay-at home orders? They all went down the toilet! The falsehood of all the Democrat governors and mayors and their reasons for the shutdown of the economy, churches, schools (etc.) was proven to be only a political ploy! With the violent looting, shootings, and clashes, these Democrat mayors were proven to be liars. After their cities began to burn, all the shutdowns ended immediately! Did you notice that the violent riots broke out in Democrat controlled cities? How come few if any cities under a Republican mayor had any violent clashes? Hmm. Things that make you say, “Hmm.” For those that wanted to get Trump out of office November 2020, with all this nonsense during Covid-19 and the violent riots, they signed on to his reelection. They made Trump’s reelection that much easier. May the wrecking ball (TRUMP) continue to destroy and drain the vast swamp in Washington and in the U. S. government! May a new government arise that lives and breathes the Constitution and our Bill of Rights! May great repentance flow in our streets and may a revival like this world has never seen be poured out on our land! I believe it has already begun! Glory to God! _________________________________ PODCAST INFO: Matthew chapters 7 and 19, Revelation chapters 12 and 14, and John chapter 14 are at the center of this teaching, and it is powerful and will open your eyes WIDE!

Get A Call to Return: Restoring The Roots of Our Relationship With Jesus as an ebook, softcover, or hardcover book from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Christianbook, Westbow Press, or order it through your favorite bookstore. From the Back Cover: A Call to Return—Restoring the Roots of Our Relationship with Jesus explores the depths of the Scriptures to excavate, refine, and lift up its words of power, revealing deep truths that will radically change the lives of believers. By tapping into this rich vein of biblical insight, Dan Alan Rodriguez offers Christians the insights to enable them to set out upon paths of discipleship that follow Jesus closely and that lead to profound experiences of His presence and power. Drawing upon the author’s study of first-century Judaism and Christianity and resting upon a diverse array of sources steeped in the foundational texts of these traditions, the twelve chapters of A Call to Return address a series of interlocking topics: a prophetic call to return; the revival of lawlessness; the revival, purpose, and preexistence of God’s commandments; the church’s commandments and their connections to faith, grace, and good works; the association of works of the law to Jewish tradition and ceremony; holiness; the fear of the Lord; each believer as a temple of the holy; and the meaning of loving the Lord Jesus. If you have a sense that Jesus’s message and ministry are calling you to embark upon a walk with Him that might take you away from all in Christianity that requires no accountability or responsibility before God, then A Call to Return—Restoring the Roots of Our Relationship with Jesus is the right book for you to read. It will give you the keys for understanding and responding to the Lord’s call to return to Him and to follow where He leads. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches” (Rev. 2:29 NASB).

Be mightily blessed! ____________ Faith that Receives the Grace of God is so important for you and me right now! There is an abundance of strange teaching in the area of grace. Grace has become for many a proposition "sin all you want without accountability", and a "do-nothing to receive from God." Grace for many is a rejection of Biblical moral commandments, and for others it is a denial of the words of Jesus. Grace, when it is in its right place Scripturally, is beautiful, abundant, and powerful, but it can be misused and misapplied. Unfortunately, grace is often taught wrongly. Instead of amazing grace, it has become gross, devilish, pseudo “grease” and not the Blood-bought-grace taught in the New Testament! This book was written so the Biblical perspective on faith and grace could be clearly presented by using verses in their context and according to the intent of the writers of the New Testament.

Shweta Malhotra is a Graphic Designer based in Bombay. After graduating in Applied Arts from Sophia Polytechnic (Bombay) in 2004, she started out as an Art Director with advertising agencies like McCann Erickson, Contract Advertising and Ogilvy. In Feb 2008, after a short stint at Fabrica, she decided to pursue a career in Graphic Design and has since worked with firms like Grandmother India and Rediffusion Y&R Design. On a project basis, she's also worked with Itu Chaudhuri Design and Illum Design. We will start with this one line which I found in most of your articles and interviews online. "My overall design aesthetic is minimal, bold and graphic, a response to the maximalist visual language prevalent in India.” - Can you tell in detail what do u mean by that? What have been your observations when you say, the maximalist visual language prevalent in India? Why do you define your work to be minimal? Your initial work was fashion-focussed, while fashion doesn’t seem not very minimal in a philosophical sense? What have been your observations w.r.t the contemporary art scene in India? Is contemporary word getting synonymous with minimalism due to our global exposure? What is your process of approaching an artwork? Minimalism is all about eliminating while you are creating something new out from your observations and what you consume? Does a blank canvas intimidate you especially when u approach with a minimalistic mindset? Do you think minimalism restrict the color palette or choose of images or fonts? What would be one take away who wish to explore this form in their work?

Olivia Scott is a dear friend of mine, and the founder and creative force behind The Raw Kitchen, a fledgling raw foods business which she sold earlier this year. She first started her “cake shop” when she was 21 and studying Nutrition at Wellpark College. She started out by making cakes at home and posting them on Instagram. A vegan at that time, she noticed a gap in the market that no-one was doing raw food in a young and innovative way. She saw an opportunity to start a market stall, which turned into a shop, and another shop, and eventually Olivia built The Raw Kitchen up to 4 cafe's over 6 years (at different times). Olivia and I first met in Bali on a retreat in May 2017, so it was incredible to be back there reconnecting in Canggu and celebrating our individual evolutions. In this episode we talk about so many things, from Olivia starting her business, to the very different (but related) path that she's on now and how that is still unfolding. We also discuss: Her transformational month in India Why she decided to train as a Reiki healer How she's meshing her business and spiritual sides How meditation helped her start her business at such a young age, and the different forms that meditation can take The strength of her personal spiritual practice in keeping her grounded throughout the turbulent times in her business The importance of listening to the ‘pings' We spoke about Olivia being in her Saturn Return (learn about your Saturn Return here.) We hope you enjoy this episode! If you do, I'd love if you would share it with a friend and leave a review.

Today we'll be talking with a magical human being, and a soul-touching artist, his name is Krishna Das, he's the creator of at least 14 albums, and at the 2013 Grammy's was known as the Rockstar of Kirtans. He's also the author of Chants of a Lifetime: Searching for a heart of Gold. Today we'll talk with him about the power of music, of chanting, and of kiertans, to touch someplace deep inside of ourselves, that's always been there, and always waiting, and how it's one possible path, to help you connect and heal your soul. That plus we'll talk about Ram Dass, Mahara-ji, hearing tests for draft boards, a big form, why there's no pooping on the bus, (Blue Oyster Cult) turning down a record deal, and how to discover our own oceanness even as we're waves. Questions and Topics Include: The power of music to touch, connect and heal your soul. What was Krishna Das's last trip to India like. Why people in India have such respect for bavana, a true depth of emotion that helps you to transcend yourself How a loop was completed with Krishna Das's last trip to India where he was able to give back and play in India What happened with college AND with the draft board. How he ended up meeting Richard Alpert (aka Ram Dass) How Maharaji got Krishna Dass to India How the play of God was in the works with Maharaji How Krishna Das began singing, chanting, and playing music when he was first in India Why the practice helps you to dissolve your evaluator What happened when Maharaji said Krishna Das had to return to the US Why “if you ask about service it's not service” What happened after Maharaji died. What Krishna Das wasn't ready to do after Mahaji died How he overcame an addiction to freebase cocaine.

What kept Krishna Das alive in 1984 What was going on with Krishna Das in 1994 How he got the awareness that if he didn't sing with people he'd never be able to remove the dark shadows from his heart Why it was so important for Krishna Das to sign with people. How Krishna Das helped bring Kirtan's to the western stage How the band he had quit became the Blue Oyster Cult (and how he turned down a record deal after a Jimmy Hendrix concert) How he keeps the ‘little me' in check during concerts How the music and success is coming through Maharaji's grace Why the practice is the ‘repetition of the divine name' What is our wave and oceanness?

Whenever I explore cultural art projects, I wonder if the lesson I plan will reflect on the values and traditions of the designated country. There have been so many times when I’m knee-deep in Google searches that I wish I could just call someone and have them tell me the most popular art styles in their country. Today’s interview is that type of conversation. I spoke with Sparkler, Payal Wachhar, an art teacher from India who teaches in Australia. Payal and I talk about her passion for inquiry base learning and her favorite Indian art influences. Oh my goodness….the details, descriptions and her passion! So contagious. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: All about Payal’s journey from India to Australia, and how she picked up so many different art skills along the way that she incorporates into her teaching today Why she initially “hated” the idea of becoming a teacher (and what changed this) Payal’s art philosophy and non-traditional ways of teaching art to her students How customizing her teaching to her students needs is leading to a higher level of trust and more engagement from the kids The ways she would design a curriculum around teaching the art of India Why you should be paying attention to your own zone of genius and working the things you are good at into your lessons How consistency in my lessons and being fair to everyone were keys to my teaching experience (and why I personally didn’t use any technology in my classrooms) LISTEN TO THE SHOW LINKS & RESOURCES Payal's favorite DSS lessons: Chinese Dragons Chicken Little & Henny Penny Art Project Metallic Robot Drawing Videos and Freebies for the 10 year Deep Space Sparkle celebration can be found at: Deep Space Sparkle Facebook Page Deep Space Sparkle Party Page
What do Zombies, bikers, and god have in common? Our guest Jeff Kober is a man with that answer. He's a veteran Hollywood actor, who's appeared in dozens of television shows and films (including The Walking Dead and Sons of Anarchy), all the while practicing and teaching meditation and Vedic philosophy. He also happens to be my personal spiritual mentor and teacher. In this truly epic and enlightening episode, Jeff shares his insights on the entire creative process of being an artist, and how to avoid letting the ego rob you of a fulfilling experience of honest self-expression. He describes how he uses his 30 years of meditation practice, and his many pilgrimages to India to not only fuel his success as an actor, but also to manage and guide his entire life. During these two hour-long episodes, you will learn how to apply deeply esoteric spiritual practices into your daily life, no matter what particular belief system you belong (or don’t belong) to. Jeff has an uncanny ability to translate his vast body of spiritual knowledge and understanding of god into straightforward and relatable terms. It’s pretty awesome. By the end of this episode, you will quite possibly make peace with the existence of evil here on earth, and find a means by which to recontextualize your subjective and worldly experiences of suffering into valuable lessons. For, after all, most of what we each see and feel each day are merely projections of the mind and ego. Jeff is going to teach us all how we can learn to disidentify with those parts of ourselves that are not real and get grounded in The Ultimate Reality. Sit back and enjoy the journey from your mind to your heart. Please pass this show along to someone you know who could use some simple answers to life's most complicated questions.

What would be the most probable rendition of the phrase â??end of the worldâ?? in the canonical gospels? How does the â??closure of the ageâ?? relate to Gnosticism? According to Diogenes Laertius, 360 jurors voted for death to Socrates, 140 for a fine. However, before this, when voting on if he was even guilty, when the ballots were counted, 280 jurors had voted to find Socrates guilty, 220 jurors for acquittal. This means that there were jurors who said to themselves, "yeah, he's innocent, but let's kill him anyway." Ditto Joseph of Arimathea re Jesus? What markers point towards a late date for John? Given Paulâ??s letters, why would Mark have had what seems to be an undeveloped theology? Is there astrological symbolism in the NT? Did Paul never refer to the Son of Man because his Jesus was not a human man and Mark and Matthew used the phrase because they wanted people to think their creation was human? Is there any evidence that Thomas evangelized India? Why would a predominantly Hindu people convert based on the teachings of a man who preaches of Jesus? Does Islam ever acknowledge that God's name is / was once Jehovah? How do they deal with that?
SynTalk thinks about dying & death from medical, ethical, existential, legal, & sociocultural perspectives, while constantly wondering how & why death is important. Is death ‘master-able’? The concepts are derived off / from Socrates, Glaucon, Epicurus, Jesus Christ, Hobbes, Stalin, Sydney Brenner, Bill Gates, Melinda Gates, Woody Allen, & Aruna Shanbaug, among others. How the hope for immortality is conceptually similar to the hope for justice? Can we avoid death before old age? How difficult is it to call someone dead, & is death an objective event? How life has changed from being ‘brutish, nasty and short’ a few centuries ago, & how the 20th century was in many ways the century of life. How is mortality different across age groups, and the role played by sanitation, vaccination, and oral rehydration over the years? Is death becoming more medicalized and protracted? Are more people now dying in hospitals? Why is it important to fight child mortality, and why is it likely that this global battle might be won or lost in the districts of India? Why the first month after birth is the most important to prevent avoidable death? Why the inevitability of death need (& should) not prevent appropriate public policy actions. How there is an opposition between life & death. What do we write on the death certificate, and why the cardio-respiratory arrest (for example) as a cause is not sufficient? How ‘extreme old age’ caused the death of Queen Mother? The difference and links between between physician assisted suicide, gradual withdrawal of care, (passive & active) euthanasia, medical care system, oral opiates, life support, & brain death. Why is the brain (stem) death becoming more popular, & possible links with organ transplant. Can there be a technology for death? How differently do people die? Can one prepare oneself to die (via philosophizing?)? What would leading oncologists do when they themselves face a terminal case of cancer? How suicide is the opposite of capital punishment. Do only human beings commit suicide; Why? Is death available to the ‘self’, in a moment when the self knows that it is no longer? How is the post-operative death different? Is the living cell programmed to die? Do we know what life is only through the occurrence of death, & is death a summation of life in some way? Is it important to not allow Market to take over death, just as it has taken over life? The importance of care for the dying? The role of the state in minimizing ‘bad luck’ deaths. How death is increasingly becoming banal and matter-of-fact, but is still (somehow) repressed culturally. Is it alright to have a cemetery in the middle of a university? How to die beautifully? The SynTalkrs are: Dr. Saitya Brata Das (philosophy, JNU, Delhi), Prof. Prabhat Jha (epidemiology, CGHR, St. Michael’s Hospital, Toronto), & Dr. Sanjay Nagral (surgery, Jaslok Hospital, Mumbai).
