“I think that my analytic awareness of denial and projection and the concreteness of psychic reality when executive function wanes, that I could help the other caretakers to understand some of what was going on - to give them a way to understand that relieves their sense of frustration and uncertainty. I think that the analytic awareness of denial, of projection, that these things are not generally recognized by many caretakers, but it does reorient and make the caretaking function much more tolerable. It expands the understanding of what goes on in the waning personality. I also think that analytic work fosters the capacity to tolerate ambiguity, uncertainty, pain and frustration and in that way may allow us, the analytic mind, to tolerate some of the intense affect - as sort of the phrase I love from an Italian analyst, as “writings waiting to be completed” - by the analytic mind. We can hold and metabolize the difficulty and offer that kind of function rather than unpleasantness just to be rid of. These are some of the things that I felt are useful as a psychoanalyst.” Episode Description: We begin with describing how dementia is a cloud over our field both for individuals and for institutes. Maxine then introduces us to 'Sally' who was her analysand 40 years prior to recontacting her to care for her cognitive decline. Maxine mentions that just hearing her former patient's voice instantly brought alive her past experiences with her. We discuss how she approached the issue of caring for her and her neurological condition. We consider the at times overlap between psychogenic and organic symptoms and she shares with us her countertransference experiences of herself losing her memory. Maxine also shares her approach to answering Sally's questions about the possibility of recovering. We close with her describing how she feels that being an analyst aided her care of Sally and what she learned from that experience that she brought to her other patients -"to face the pain of difficult truths."   Our Guest: Maxine Anderson, MD, is a training and supervising analyst at the Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, the Seattle Psychoanalytic Institute and Society and the Canadian Psychoanalytic Society. Originally trained in psychiatry, she pursued psychoanalytic training in Seattle in the early 1970s and then pursued post-graduate work at the British Psychoanalytical Society for 8 years, returning to Seattle in 1992.  Thereafter, she became a Founding Member of the Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute. Maxine has published several articles, and chapters and 3 books, the most recent being The Hardest Passage: a psychoanalyst accompanies her patient's journey into dementia (Karnac, 2025). Feeling herself now to be an Elder in life and in her field, Maxine hopes to continue to think and write about this phase of personal and professional life.   Recommended Readings: Balfour, A.

In this episode, we dive deep into the esoteric teachings of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, co-founder of the Theosophical Society and one of the most influential occult thinkers of the nineteenth century. Focusing on her mature doctrine of reincarnation as outlined in The Secret Doctrine (1888), we explore how Blavatsky moved away from earlier notions of metempsychosis to formulate a complex cosmology in which the soul—or monad—undergoes countless rebirths across vast spans of cosmic time.Drawing on Theosophical anthropology, planetary evolution, and the doctrine of karma, this episode unpacks Blavatsky's concept of the saptaparna, the sevenfold human constitution, and the soul's gradual progression through root races, planetary rounds, and astral realms. We examine how Blavatsky's vision was both impersonal and democratic, placing individual suffering within a broader metaphysical narrative of spiritual evolution and cosmic justice.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Hello Interactors,This week, the European Space Agency launched a satellite to "weigh" Earth's 1.5 trillion trees. It will give scientists deeper insight into forests and their role in the climate — far beyond surface readings. Pretty cool. And it's coming from Europe.Meanwhile, I learned that the U.S. Secretary of Defense — under Trump — had a makeup room installed in the Pentagon to look better on TV. Also pretty cool, I guess. And very American.The contrast was hard to miss. Even with better data, the U.S. shows little appetite for using geographic insight to actually address climate change. Information is growing. Willpower, not so much.So it was oddly clarifying to read a passage Christopher Hobson posted on Imperfect Notes from a book titled America by a French author — a travelogue of softs. Last week I offered new lenses through which to see the world, I figured I'd try this French pair on — to see America, and the world it effects, as he did.PAPER, POWER, AND PROJECTIONI still have a folded paper map of Seattle in the door of my car. It's a remnant of a time when physical maps reflected the reality before us. You unfolded a map and it innocently offered the physical world on a page. The rest was left to you — including knowing how to fold it up again.But even then, not all maps were neutral or necessarily innocent. Sure, they crowned capitals and trimmed borders, but they could also leave things out or would make certain claims. From empire to colony, from mission to market, maps often arrived not to reflect place, but to declare control of it. Still, we trusted it…even if was an illusion.I learned how to interrogate maps in my undergraduate history of cartography class — taught by the legendary cartographer Waldo Tobler. But even with that knowledge, when I was then taught how to make maps, that interrogation was more absent. I confidently believed I was mediating truth. The lines and symbols I used pointed to substance; they signaled a thing. I traced rivers from existing base maps with a pen on vellum and trusted they existed in the world as sure as the ink on the page. I cut out shading for a choropleth map and believed it told a stable story about population, vegetation, or economics. That trust was embodied in representation — the idea that a sign meant something enduring. That we could believe what maps told us.This is the world of semiotics — the study of how signs create meaning. American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce offered a sturdy model: a sign (like a map line) refers to an object (the river), and its meaning emerges in interpretation. Meaning, in this view, is relational — but grounded. A stop sign, a national anthem, a border — they meant something because they pointed beyond themselves, to a world we shared.But there are cracks in this seemingly sturdy model.These cracks pose this question: why do we trust signs in the first place? That trust — in maps, in categories, in data — didn't emerge from neutrality. It was built atop agendas.Take the first U.S. census in 1790. It didn't just count — it defined. Categories like “free white persons,” “all other free persons,” and “slaves” weren't neutral. They were political tools, shaping who mattered and by how much. People became variables. Representation became abstraction.Or Carl Linnaeus, the 18th-century Swedish botanist who built the taxonomies we still use: genus, species, kingdom. His system claimed objectivity but was shaped by distance and empire. Linnaeus never left Sweden. He named what he hadn't seen, classified people he'd never met — sorting humans into racial types based on colonial stereotypes. These weren't observations. They were projections based on stereotypes gathered from travelers, missionaries, and imperial officials.Naming replaced knowing. Life was turned into labels. Biology became filing. And once abstracted, it all became governable, measurable, comparable, and, ultimately, manageable.Maps followed suit.What once lived as a symbolic invitation — a drawing of place — became a system of location. I was studying geography at a time (and place) when Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and GIScience was transforming cartography. Maps weren't just about visual representations; they were spatial databases. Rows, columns, attributes, and calculations took the place of lines and shapes on map. Drawing what we saw turned to abstracting what could then be computed so that it could then be visualized, yes, but also managed.Chris Perkins, writing on the philosophy of mapping, argued that digital cartographies didn't just depict the world — they constituted it. The map was no longer a surface to interpret, but a script to execute. As critical geographers Sam Hind and Alex Gekker argue, the modern “mapping impulse” isn't about understanding space — it's about optimizing behavior through it; in a world of GPS and vehicle automation, the map no longer describes the territory, it becomes it. Laura Roberts, writing on film and geography, showed how maps had fused with cinematic logic — where places aren't shown, but performed. Place and navigation became narrative. New York in cinema isn't a place — it's a performance of ambition, alienation, or energy. Geography as mise-en-scène.In other words, the map's loss of innocence wasn't just technical. It was ontological — a shift in the very nature of what maps are and what kind of reality they claim to represent. Geography itself had entered the domain of simulation — not representing space but staging it. You can simulate traveling anywhere in the world, all staged on Google maps. Last summer my son stepped off the train in Edinburgh, Scotland for the first time in his life but knew exactly where he was. He'd learned it driving on simulated streets in a simulated car on XBox. He walked us straight to our lodging.These shifts in reality over centuries weren't necessarily mistakes. They unfolded, emerged, or evolved through the rational tools of modernity — and for a time, they worked. For many, anyway. Especially for those in power, seeking power, or benefitting from it. They enabled trade, governance, development, and especially warfare. But with every shift came this question: at what cost?FROM SIGNS TO SPECTACLEAs early as the early 1900s, Max Weber warned of a world disenchanted by bureaucracy — a society where rationalization would trap the human spirit in what he called an iron cage. By mid-century, thinkers pushed this further.Michel Foucault revealed how systems of knowledge — from medicine to criminal justice — were entangled with systems of power. To classify was to control. To represent was to discipline. Roland Barthes dissected the semiotics of everyday life — showing how ads, recipes, clothing, even professional wrestling were soaked in signs pretending to be natural.Guy Debord, in the 1967 The Society of the Spectacle, argued that late capitalism had fully replaced lived experience with imagery. “The spectacle,” he wrote, “is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”Then came Jean Baudrillard — a French sociologist, media theorist, and provocateur — who pushed the critique of representation to its limit. In the 1980s, where others saw distortion, he saw substitution: signs that no longer referred to anything real. Most vividly, in his surreal, gleaming 1986 travelogue America, he described the U.S. not as a place, but as a performance — a projection without depth, still somehow running.Where Foucault showed that knowledge was power, and Debord showed that images replaced life, Baudrillard argued that signs had broken free altogether. A map might once distort or simplify — but it still referred to something real. By the late 20th century, he argued, signs no longer pointed to anything. They pointed only to each other.You didn't just visit Disneyland. You visited the idea of America — manufactured, rehearsed, rendered. You didn't just use money. You used confidence by handing over a credit card — a symbol of wealth that is lighter and moves faster than any gold.In some ways, he was updating a much older insight by another Frenchman. When Alexis de Tocqueville visited America in the 1830s, he wasn't just studying law or government — he was studying performance. He saw how Americans staged democracy, how rituals of voting and speech created the image of a free society even as inequality and exclusion thrived beneath it. Tocqueville wasn't cynical. He simply understood that America believed in its own image — and that belief gave it a kind of sovereign feedback loop.Baudrillard called this condition simulation — when representation becomes self-contained. When the distinction between real and fake no longer matters because everything is performance. Not deception — orchestration.He mapped four stages of this logic:* Faithful representation – A sign reflects a basic reality. A map mirrors the terrain.* Perversion of reality – The sign begins to distort. Think colonial maps as logos or exclusionary zoning.* Pretending to represent – The sign no longer refers to anything but performs as if it does. Disneyland isn't America — it's the fantasy of America. (ironically, a car-free America)* Pure simulation – The sign has no origin or anchor. It floats. Zillow heatmaps, Uber surge zones — maps that don't reflect the world, but determine how you move through it.We don't follow maps as they were once known anymore. We follow interfaces.And not just in apps. Cities themselves are in various stages of simulation. New York still sells itself as a global center. But in a distributed globalized and digitized economy, there is no center — only the perversion of an old reality. Paris subsidizes quaint storefronts not to nourish citizens, but to preserve the perceived image of Paris. Paris pretending to be Paris. Every city has its own marketing campaign. They don't manage infrastructure — they manage perception. The skyline is a product shot. The streetscape is marketing collateral and neighborhoods are optimized for search.Even money plays this game.The U.S. dollar wasn't always king. That title once belonged to the British pound — backed by empire, gold, and industry. After World War II, the dollar took over, pegged to gold under the Bretton Woods convention — a symbol of American postwar power stability…and perversion. It was forged in an opulent, exclusive, hotel in the mountains of New Hampshire. But designed in the style of Spanish Renaissance Revival, it was pretending to be in Spain. Then in 1971, Nixon snapped the dollar's gold tether. The ‘Nixon Shock' allowed the dollar to float — its value now based not on metal, but on trust. It became less a store of value than a vessel of belief. A belief that is being challenged today in ways that recall the instability and fragmentation of the pre-WWII era.And this dollar lives in servers, not Industrial Age iron vaults. It circulates as code, not coin. It underwrites markets, wars, and global finance through momentum alone. And when the pandemic hit, there was no digging into reserves.The Federal Reserve expanded its balance sheet with keystrokes — injecting trillions into the economy through bond purchases, emergency loans, and direct payments. But at the same time, Trump 1.0 showed printing presses rolling, stacks of fresh bills bundled and boxed — a spectacle of liquidity. It was monetary policy as theater. A simulation of control, staged in spreadsheets by the Fed and photo ops by the Executive Branch. Not to reflect value, but to project it. To keep liquidity flowing and to keep the belief intact.This is what Baudrillard meant by simulation. The sign doesn't lie — nor does it tell the truth. It just works — as long as we accept it.MOOD OVER MEANINGReality is getting harder to discern. We believe it to be solid — that it imposes friction. A law has consequences. A price reflects value. A city has limits. These things made sense because they resist us. Because they are real.But maybe that was just the story we told. Maybe it was always more mirage than mirror.Now, the signs don't just point to reality — they also replace it. We live in a world where the image outpaces the institution. Where the copy is smoother than the original. Where AI does the typing. Where meaning doesn't emerge — it arrives prepackaged and pre-viral. It's a kind of seductive deception. It's hyperreality where performance supersedes substance. Presence and posture become authority structured in style.Politics is not immune to this — it's become the main attraction.Trump's first 100 days didn't aim to stabilize or legislate but to signal. Deportation as UFC cage match — staged, brutal, and televised. Tariff wars as a way of branding power — chaos with a catchphrase. Climate retreat cast as perverse theater. Gender redefined and confined by executive memo. Birthright citizenship challenged while sedition pardoned. Even the Gulf of Mexico got renamed. These aren't policies, they're productions.Power isn't passing through law. It's passing through the affect of spectacle and a feed refresh.Baudrillard once wrote that America doesn't govern — it narrates. Trump doesn't manage policy, he manages mood. Like an actor. When America's Secretary of Defense, a former TV personality, has a makeup studio installed inside the Pentagon it's not satire. It's just the simulation, doing what it does best: shining under the lights.But this logic runs deeper than any single figure.Culture no longer unfolds. It reloads. We don't listen to the full album — we lift 10 seconds for TikTok. Music is made for algorithms. Fashion is filtered before it's worn. Selfhood is a brand channel. Identity is something to monetize, signal, or defend — often all at once.The economy floats too. Meme stocks. NFTs. Speculative tokens. These aren't based in value — they're based in velocity. Attention becomes the currency.What matters isn't what's true, but what trends. In hyperreality, reference gives way to rhythm. The point isn't to be accurate. The point is to circulate. We're not being lied to.We're being engaged. And this isn't a bug, it's a feature.Which through a Baudrillard lens is why America — the simulation — persists.He saw it early. Describing strip malls, highways, slogans, themed diners he saw an America that wasn't deep. That was its genius he saw. It was light, fast paced, and projected. Like the movies it so famously exports. It didn't need justification — it just needed repetition.And it's still repeating.Las Vegas is the cathedral of the logic of simulation — a city that no longer bothers pretending. But it's not alone. Every city performs, every nation tries to brand itself. Every policy rollout is scored like a product launch. Reality isn't navigated — it's streamed.And yet since his writing, the mood has shifted. The performance continues, but the music underneath it has changed. The techno-optimism of Baudrillard's ‘80s an ‘90s have curdled. What once felt expansive now feels recursive and worn. It's like a show running long after the audience has gone home. The rager has ended, but Spotify is still loudly streaming through the speakers.“The Kids' Guide to the Internet” (1997), produced by Diamond Entertainment and starring the unnervingly wholesome Jamison family. It captures a moment of pure techno-optimism — when the Internet was new, clean, and family-approved. It's not just a tutorial; it's a time capsule of belief, staged before the dream turned into something else. Before the feed began to feed on us.Trumpism thrives on this terrain. And yet the world is changing around it. Climate shocks, mass displacement, spiraling inequality — the polycrisis has a body count. Countries once anchored to American leadership are squinting hard now, trying to see if there's anything left behind the screen. Adjusting the antenna in hopes of getting a clearer signal. From Latin America to Southeast Asia to Europe, the question grows louder: Can you trust a power that no longer refers to anything outside itself?Maybe Baudrillard and Tocqueville are right — America doesn't point to a deeper truth. It points to itself. Again and again and again. It is the loop. And even now, knowing this, we can't quite stop watching. There's a reason we keep refreshing. Keep scrolling. Keep reacting. The performance persists — not necessarily because we believe in it, but because it's the only script still running.And whether we're horrified or entertained, complicit or exhausted, engaged or ghosted, hired or fired, immigrated or deported, one thing remains strangely true: we keep feeding it. That's the strange power of simulation in an attention economy. It doesn't need conviction. It doesn't need conscience. It just needs attention — enough to keep the momentum alive. The simulation doesn't care if the real breaks down. It just keeps rendering — soft, seamless, and impossible to look away from. Like a dream you didn't choose but can't wake up from.REFERENCESBarthes, R. (1972). Mythologies (A. Lavers, Trans.). Hill and Wang. (Original work published 1957)Baudrillard, J. (1986). America (C.

In 1978, Nand Kishore Chaudhary (NKC) got a job offer from a Government bank and the chance to move from Churu to Jaipur -- something most people could only dream of back in the day.But, he declined that offer. He saw an opportunity in the carpets business which was a 100% export market and was growing steadily. He also saw this as an opportunity to impact lives and connect with people.So, he took a leap of faith. He took a loan of INR 5000 from his father. Bought a bicycle. Two looms. And started working with 9 artisans in Churu.And that's how Jaipur Rugs was born.Fast forward to today, he has created a sprawling empire with their carpets being exported to 60 different countries. They have trained >40,000 artisans and run various social initiatives via Jaipur Rugs Foundation.NKC & Jaipur Rugs are a shining example of how a business can create lasting impact in the lives of people.I learnt a lot while speaking to NKC and we spoke about a range of topics like:(02:03): How NKC started his entrepreneurial journey with INR 5,000(08:14): Inception of JaipurRugs — navigating early challenges of doing biz in the 1980s(14:49): What goes into making an exquisite handcrafted rug?

The similarities between the indictment and conviction of R. Kelly and the indictment of Sean "Diddy" Combs are indeed striking and noteworthy.   In this episode we take a look at some of the core parallels. Both R. Kelly and Diddy have been indicted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. This is significant because the RICO statute was traditionally used to prosecute organized crime but is now being applied to individuals accused of long-term patterns of sexual abuse. Prosecutors argue that both men ran "enterprises" through which they were able to commit and conceal their crimes. In R. Kelly's case, his team—managers, bodyguards, and assistants—helped him recruit, exploit, and silence victims. Similarly, Diddy is accused of using his business empire and staff to coerce women into sexual activity and to cover up the abuse.In both cases, the allegations point to systemic, decades-long abuse. R. Kelly's sexual abuse spanned decades, involving minors, child pornography, and coercion. Diddy's indictment, while focused on adult women, similarly accuses him of long-term, repeated abuse, where he allegedly leveraged his power and wealth to manipulate victims​.Both R. Kelly and allegedly Diddy used their status as powerful figures in the music industry to facilitate their crimes. Their fame afforded them protection, access to vulnerable individuals, and influence over those around them, including their teams, who allegedly helped perpetuate and cover up the abuse. This exploitation of celebrity status is a central theme in both cases, as both men allegedly relied on their empires to intimidate victims and prevent them from coming forward.Both men are accused of manipulating and coercing victims into sexual activities. R. Kelly used coercion, often involving minors, to control and sexually exploit young women. Similarly, Diddy is accused of coercing adult women, with allegations of threats, violence, and manipulation, including using drugs to maintain control. In both cases, the prosecution has built a narrative that emphasizes the use of power to force complianceBoth cases involve sophisticated efforts to conceal the abuse. R. Kelly used his wealth and influence to silence victims and avoid legal consequences for years. Diddy's case also alleges that he used his network of business connections and financial resources to pay off victims, keep his actions hidden, and control the narrative around his conduct. Both men are accused of orchestrating a broad network of people and resources to maintain their abusive activities and evade justice.The similarities between the R. Kelly and Sean "Diddy" Combs cases lie in the pattern of long-term, systematic abuse, the use of celebrity status to facilitate and cover up crimes, and the application of RICO charges to hold these individuals accountable. In this episode we take a look at those similiarities.​Kanye West, now known as Ye, released a new track titled "Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine," featuring his 11-year-old daughter, North West, alongside Sean "Diddy" Combs and his son, King Combs. The song, shared on March 15, 2025, begins with a phone conversation between West and Combs. North contributes a brief rap, delivering the line, "When you see me shining, then you see the light."The release has sparked significant controversy, as Kim Kardashian, West's ex-wife and North's mother, attempted to block the song's release. Citing concerns over their daughter's involvement and the association with Diddy, who is currently incarcerated awaiting trial for federal sex crimes, Kardashian sought legal intervention to prevent the song from being published. Despite her efforts, including a cease and desist demand and an emergency mediation attempt, West proceeded with the release, escalating tensions between the former couple.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A photo with sled dogs of Greenland wading through knee-deep water, surrounded by pristine glaciers and mountains, has gone viral. The scientist who took this photo realised that most people who saw it on social media found the picture scenic, but he realised that something about the picture was scary. If the same place were photographed year after year, we would notice all that is unusual. Aesthetics aside, these photos would show us a changing trend in many corners of the earth. Climate change is real. If you want to find out exactly what about the photo is scary, listen to the episode where middle-schooler Darsh solves this puzzle.Explore More1.

In this episode, Deepak and Shray unpack the ins and outs of international investing—why it matters, when it makes sense, and who it's really for. From rupee depreciation to political and geographical risks, they explore the key reasons to diversify your portfolio beyond India's borders. They also discuss a crucial question: At what level of capital does it become meaningful to place your money outside? The conversation weaves in perspectives from investing greats—Peter Lynch, who believed in the power of consumer insight, and Devina Mehra, whose latest book "Money Myths and Mantras" emphasizes global allocation as a must-have strategy. With fresh data on market returns (both in INR and local currency terms), the duo breaks down how different regions have performed—why Europe and China have struggled, and how the US tech boom, largely driven by the Nasdaq, has outshone the rest. But can the US continue to dominate, especially in light of Fed Chairman Powell's recent remarks on tariffs? They also touch upon an important side of global investing: taxation. From the complexities of capital gains to the lesser-known estate tax, and how investment vehicles like UCITS can help navigate these issues. Tune in for a comprehensive, no-fluff guide to international investing—what works, what to watch out for, and how to do it right. 0:00 - 2:10 Introduction 2:11 - 8:27 Why should you invest abroad? 8:28 - 10:53 Economic growth ≠ Shareholder returns 10:54 - 19:35 How to select international investments? 19:36 - 27:31 Regular international investments 27:32 - 32:17 Commodity Diversification 32:18 - 40:50 Managed International Investment Solutions 40:51 - 43:37 Good time to global? 43:38 - 47:17 Domestic vs. International Brokers 47:18 - 50:34 Tax on Foreign Equity 50:35 - 54:17 Tax Collected at Source 54:18 - 56:38 U.S. Estate Taxes 56:39 - 59:50 UCITS -- More about us: https://cm.social/pms Connect with us : https://cm.social/pms-connect Deepak's Twitter: @deepakshenoy Shray's Twitter: @shraychandra Capitalmind Twitter: @capitalmind_in

Darjeeling's zoo recently got a rare upgrade. Its zoo will serve two purposes: on one side, it will house creatures that tourists can visit and watch as they stroll around; on the other side there will be something rare and new housed in these premises. This makes it the first of its kind in India. This episode is along the lines of a 20-questions game, where 13-year old Sathwik joins the host Sangeetha, asks a series of questions and finds out what is rare and new in this zoo.Explore More1.

Márta und Teresa sind Kusinen, zusammen sind sie am Plattensee aufgewachsen. Dann zieht Teresa mit ihren Eltern nach Ost-Berlin. Márta folgt ihr in die Großstadt und taucht ein in die Literaturszene der DDR. Sie lieben den gleichen Mann, ein fatales Liebesdreieck entsteht - das sich in einem Städtedreieck entfaltet, Orte die auch Autorin Nikoletta Kiss etwas bedeuten: Budapest, wo sie geboren wurde. Ost-Berlin, wo sie aufwuchs und BWL studierte. Und Wien, wo sie heute mit ihrer Familie lebt und als Verlagslektorin arbeitet. In "Rückkehr nach Budapest" nimmt sie uns mit in die Vorwendezeit, die Ostberliner Bohèmeszene und die der Budapester Dissidenten, die in Privatwohnungen Samisdat-Schriften herstellten. Stephan Ozsváth hat Nikoletta Kiss in der Berliner Oranienburger Straße getroffen, wo die Schluss-Szene des Romans spielt.

This episode explores key figures such as Helena Blavatsky and Rudolf Steiner, whose Theosophical and Anthroposophical systems redefined Lucifer as a bearer of divine knowledge and imagination rather than a malevolent entity. The analysis further considers contemporary Luciferian traditions, ritual practices, and psychological interpretations—particularly Jungian and post-Jungian approaches—positioning Lucifer within broader cultural shifts toward individual gnosis and alternative spiritualities. This episode contributes to a nuanced understanding of how religious symbols adapt across historical, philosophical, and ritual contexts.CONNECT & SUPPORT

India's SPADEX (Space Docking Experiment) mission, led by ISRO, aims to demonstrate autonomous docking between two spacecraft. It is sort of like a hug in an orbit in space. This skill is critical for future lunar bases, satellite servicing, and space stations. Think of it like high-tech Lego in space—snapping parts together perfectly! A big step for India's space adventures, given India's ambitions for deep-space exploration.Other interesting things1.

Captain Underpants is a super popular book series that has sold more than 80 million copies all around the world. Kids love its funny jokes and surprising story twists. The author, Dav Pilkey, wasn't always great at reading or sitting still—he had something called dyslexia (a reading disorder) and ADHD (which makes it hard to focus). But as a kid, he used his time while he was sent out of class to draw funny pictures and tell stories to his friends. Instead of letting challenges stop him, he turned them into something awesome!Young guests: Agastya (12 yrs), Darsh (10 yrs), Dhruv Agarwal (11 yrs), Dhruv Gandhi (11 yrs), Dhyan (11 yrs), Nayra (10 yrs), Satwik (12 yrs)Explore More1.

Project Tiger was launched in the 1970s in India. There was much fanfare, wildlife reserves were created and tiger protection became important to the Indian government. While Project Tiger stopped the killing of tigers, these big cats did not grow in numbers that much. But that trend changed in 2010. For the first time, between 2010 and 2022, tiger numbers nearly doubled, from ~1700 to over 3600. This has happened despite a rise in India's human population and a decline in forest area.

Feil skjer i helsevesenet – det er uunngåelig. Men hvordan du håndterer dem kan avgjøre alt. Ukens episode starter med to sterke personlige historier om medisinske feil: En spinalpunksjon utført på en pasient med skyhøyt INR og en insulindose som ble ti ganger for høy. Den første legen håndterte feilen ved å erkjenne ansvaret umiddelbart, forklare feilen åpent og vise ektefølt anger. Den andre legen valgte å skjule feilen.Barnelege og kommunikasjonsekspert Bård Fossli Jensen er tilbake i studio og deler en praktisk femtrinnsoppskrift for å be om unnskyldning som faktisk virker. En liten bonus er at du også får verdifulle råd om hvordan du møter sinne og frustrasjon fra pasienter og pårørende – selv når det er systemet som har sviktet, og ikke du.

Delhi, India Part 1  In this episode, the FAQ is: My listeners ask: How do I check for the weather where I'm going?    Today's Destination is: Delhi, India   Today's Misstep- Stuck in India and missed the bus   Travel Advice: Ask a group of people for directions   FAQ: You asked me how to get the most reliable weather forecast:   Here's how> Use apps like AccuWeather, weather.com, and windy or local services, with hourly and long-range forecasts, radar maps, and severe weather alerts. For more local alerts, sign up for location-based apps on Google Weather or MyRadar.  Look for seasonal patterns that are already known. Goa, India has monsoons from June to September. Wind and rain forecasts like windy.com will tell you the wind and wave conditions, especially to help with beach plans. Check for Cyclone Warnings in places like coastal India.   Answer: Reliable Weather Apps and Websites: For accurate forecasts, use apps like AccuWeather, Weather.com, Windy, or local Indian weather services (like IMD). Many offer hourly and long-range forecasts, radar maps, and severe weather alerts. Localized Alerts: Sign up for location-based alerts on apps like Google Weather or MyRadar, which provide real-time weather updates for your location. This can be especially helpful for any sudden coastal storms or cyclones. Seasonal Patterns: Since you're going to Goa or nearby coastal regions, familiarize yourself with local weather patterns. For example, Goa experiences the monsoon season from June to September, with dry and sunny weather from October to March. Wind and Rain Forecasts: Coastal areas are affected by both rain and wind speed. Windy.com offers detailed wind and wave conditions, which can help with beach plans. Check for Cyclone Warnings: Especially in coastal India, monitor IMD's cyclone warnings as they provide updates on tropical storms that may affect Goa. Lastly, social media can help by using WhatsApp groups to get firsthand information from locals. Today's destination: Delhi, India Part 1 My visit to Delhi, or New Delhi, India  Which is it? New Delhi when referring to the specific district that serves as India's capital. New Delhi is a planned city developed during British rule and officially designated as the capital in 1931. Delhi refers to the larger metropolitan area, encompassing both New Delhi and other historical and residential parts like Old Delhi, which includes the Red Fort and Jama Masjid. Delhi is the correct term when speaking broadly about the city and its culture, so we will use that one here. After two weeks in India, visiting four southern cities, I flew north to Dehli from Goa, barely missing the seasonal monsoons. My flight had a Female co-pilot who Said hello to me with a big smile, which made me happy to see a woman pilot there.   The flight attendants checked my boarding tickets. Again, getting off the plane! That was a first. Who checks them getting off the plane? Should I take a Bus, train, or taxi to Agra? Even after arriving, I could not decide. I was overwhelmed with the decisions, but I knew I had to get there.  A taxi costs at least $6000 rupees each way, maybe more. Although this sounded like a lot, it was only $72 USD. Bus or train may be best. However, the temperature is

Radhika Koolwal is the co-founder of Urban Space, and her role in transforming her husband Rohit Agarwal's family textile business from Ahmedabad into one of India's leading home decor brands. Urban Space is a great example of how a fresh perspective can take a traditional business to new heights. Rohit, with his deep expertise in textiles and production, laid the foundation for the brand's quality-first approach. However, it was Radhika's entry into the business that truly propelled its growth in the digital age. When Radhika joined the business in 2018, she had no prior experience in textiles or home decor. Yet, she brought her background in engineering and marketing to the table, setting up Urban Space's e-commerce and digital strategies from scratch. Her ability to quickly adapt and understand market trends has been instrumental in Urban Space's growth, particularly in the highly competitive online market. Today, the brand boasts INR 6 crore in monthly sales and a strong digital presence, which she has helped build from the ground up.

La Asociación Cristiana de Dirigentes de Empresas (ACDE) organizó ayer junto con empresarios y los ministros de Desarrollo Social y del Interior una recorrida por la unidad 4 del INR (ex Comcar).  La instancia buscó que los empresarios conocieran de primera mano a las personas próximas a salir en libertad y que descubrieran los desafíos que enfrentan en el proceso de reintegrarse a la sociedad. Además se firmó un convenio entre ACDE, la Cámara de Industrias, la Cámara de la Construcción, la Cámara de Comercio y Servicios, el Ministerio del Interior y la DINALI (Dirección Nacional de Apoyo al Liberado), para garantizar la inserción laboral de las personas privadas de libertad a través de las prácticas laborales.  Conversamos En Perspectiva con Teresa Cometto, socia de ACDE y referente del plan "Liberados".

In this episode, Monika explores why inflation has surged in India, hitting 6.2% in October 2024, the highest in over a year. She explains how inflation is measured using the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which tracks price changes in a basket of consumer goods and services. A consistent rise in the CPI indicates inflation, with a recent jump reflecting concerns about India's economic stability. The ideal inflation target for India is set between 2% and 6%, with 4% considered optimal for growth, but the current numbers exceed this range. Monika discusses the key contributors to the recent spike, particularly food inflation. October saw food and beverage prices soar to 9.69%, driven by a 42.2% increase in vegetable costs, along with rising cereal and oil prices. She highlights the persistent food inflation due to extreme weather conditions and challenges in the agricultural sector, exacerbated by the government's struggle to implement necessary reforms. These factors complicate inflation control, and Monika predicts that inflation might not ease until early next year, affecting consumer spending and economic growth. The recent closure of Durga Cooperative Bank is also discussed in this episode. The RBI canceled the bank's license, forcing customers to rely on deposit insurance for refunds. This situation underscores the risks of choosing high-interest cooperative banks, leading to a recommendation to prioritize safer options like large public or private banks for emergency fund deposits. Listener queries include Raj Krishan (name changed), who asks if his family's net worth of INR 7 crore, along with other resources, is sufficient to support his upcoming career switch to entrepreneurship. Another listener, Smitha, shares concerns about financial stability after returning from Australia and asks for guidance on managing property inheritance and finding employment in India. Lastly, Kumarjit inquires about how to choose a reliable financial planner, seeking clarity on professional credentials and fee structures.

In this episode, Monika explains why Indian stock markets, after a four-year bull run, are now experiencing choppy waters. She discusses how markets sometimes grow ahead of the economy's fundamentals, leading to short-term volatility. She highlights that while Sensex has returned a remarkable 23% per year over the last four years, long-term averages show more moderate returns. Investors should prepare for lower returns in the near future, possibly high single digits or low double digits, aligning with historical averages. Monika also examines the role of Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) in recent market fluctuations. FIIs withdrew over Rs 88,000 crore from Indian equities in October 2024, partly to rebalance portfolios and shift funds back to the US amid election uncertainties. However, she notes that strong domestic investments through mutual funds and retirement accounts have cushioned the impact, preventing a larger market drop. Monika advises investors to stay focused on asset allocation rather than reacting to short-term FII moves. The episode also addresses estate planning, with Monika stressing the importance of preparing an efficient asset handover. She recommends essential steps, like naming nominees on all financial accounts, keeping property documents accessible, and writing a registered will. By organizing assets now, families can avoid unnecessary stress and financial setbacks later on. In listener queries, Richa Kukreja, a single working woman, seeks guidance on building a retirement corpus of INR 5 crore by age 60 through mutual funds. Sahil Kapoor from Dallas asks about tracking mutual fund returns and whether XIRR or annualized returns are more effective for this purpose. Lastly, Vidya, nearing retirement, shares her concerns about protecting her investments amidst global uncertainties and the potential impact on her mutual fund portfolio.

In this episode of the Joy Lab podcast, we explore the complex emotions of envy and gratitude. We'll discuss how practicing gratitude can serve as a powerful antidote to the corrosive effects of envy, and delve into the evolutionary purpose and varieties of envy, including benign and malicious forms. We also take a quick (and hopefully helpful!) detour into the concept of counterfactual thinking and its role in both fueling and easing envy, with a focus on the use of mindfulness and gratitude to transform negative emotions into positive action. Best of all, we'll end with a really helpful way to reframe envy as a signal for self-care and gratitude.

Amit Khanna's journey is a compelling testament to resilience and transformation. Losing his father at the tender age of 15, with only 426 INR (approximately 5 USD) in the bank and significant debts to settle, young Amit was propelled into a series of challenging jobs—factory worker, salesperson, cashier, and bartender—just to make ends meet until he could graduate. Facing the additional hurdles of struggling with fluent English and enduring facial paralysis multiple times, Amit's path was far from easy. Despite these obstacles, Amit's career took a pivotal turn when he realized that coding wasn't his forte. Instead, he discovered a passion for people management and seamlessly transitioned into leadership roles within the corporate sphere. Over nearly a decade as a certified project manager, Amit has gained extensive international experience, working across diverse countries including India, the USA, the Philippines, China, Bangladesh, Sweden, and Australia. Today, Amit Khanna is recognized as an International TEDx Speaker, Thought Leader, Master Storyteller, and Mentor in Leadership and Communication. His experiences have highlighted a crucial gap in the professional world: many talented individuals struggle to advance or assume leadership roles due to insufficient communication and leadership skills. This realization has fueled Amit's mission to enhance the capabilities of individuals through his B.I.G. Believe-Improve-Grow framework, which aims to foster effective communication and create nurturing environments for innovative ideas to thrive.

The similarities between the indictment and conviction of R. Kelly and the indictment of Sean "Diddy" Combs are indeed striking and noteworthy.   In this episode we take a look at some of the core parallels. Both R. Kelly and Diddy have been indicted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. This is significant because the RICO statute was traditionally used to prosecute organized crime but is now being applied to individuals accused of long-term patterns of sexual abuse. Prosecutors argue that both men ran "enterprises" through which they were able to commit and conceal their crimes. In R. Kelly's case, his team—managers, bodyguards, and assistants—helped him recruit, exploit, and silence victims. Similarly, Diddy is accused of using his business empire and staff to coerce women into sexual activity and to cover up the abuse.In both cases, the allegations point to systemic, decades-long abuse. R. Kelly's sexual abuse spanned decades, involving minors, child pornography, and coercion. Diddy's indictment, while focused on adult women, similarly accuses him of long-term, repeated abuse, where he allegedly leveraged his power and wealth to manipulate victims​.Both R. Kelly and allegedly Diddy used their status as powerful figures in the music industry to facilitate their crimes. Their fame afforded them protection, access to vulnerable individuals, and influence over those around them, including their teams, who allegedly helped perpetuate and cover up the abuse. This exploitation of celebrity status is a central theme in both cases, as both men allegedly relied on their empires to intimidate victims and prevent them from coming forward.Both men are accused of manipulating and coercing victims into sexual activities. R. Kelly used coercion, often involving minors, to control and sexually exploit young women. Similarly, Diddy is accused of coercing adult women, with allegations of threats, violence, and manipulation, including using drugs to maintain control. In both cases, the prosecution has built a narrative that emphasizes the use of power to force complianceBoth cases involve sophisticated efforts to conceal the abuse. R. Kelly used his wealth and influence to silence victims and avoid legal consequences for years. Diddy's case also alleges that he used his network of business connections and financial resources to pay off victims, keep his actions hidden, and control the narrative around his conduct. Both men are accused of orchestrating a broad network of people and resources to maintain their abusive activities and evade justice.The similarities between the R. Kelly and Sean "Diddy" Combs cases lie in the pattern of long-term, systematic abuse, the use of celebrity status to facilitate and cover up crimes, and the application of RICO charges to hold these individuals accountable. In this episode we take a look at those similiarities.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The Sean ‘Diddy' Combs case brings to mind R.

This week, Quinta and Scott were joined by Lawfare Contributing Editor and Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Eric Ciaramella to talk over the week's big national security news, including:“Prime Deliverables, in Two Days or Less.” The Biden administration and its European allies coughed up a number of big wins for Ukraine at a meeting of the G7 and subsequent Ukraine peace summit this past week, ranging from a new U.S.-Ukraine security agreement to a commitment to provide $50 billion in assistance derived from frozen Russian assets. But are these measures game-changers—especially with political changes in both Europe and the United States on the horizon?“Trying to F Us.” Policy advisors to former President Trump reportedly have some big plans for government employees if he is elected to a second stint in the White House—including the return of Schedule F, an reorganization of the civil service that would have gutted job protections and made it easier to replace civil servants with partisan loyalists. How big a problem are these plans? And how feasible are they really?“Revenge of the Nerds.” A little known intelligence agency within the State Department—the Bureau of Intelligence and Research, or INR—has gotten some great press of late, celebrating several notable analytic victories it's secured, often in dissent from the rest of the intelligence community. Is there some secret to INR's success? Or is it overblown?For object lessons, Quinta shared more important NJ political corruption news. Scott awarded his song of the summer to “Right Back to It,” the single off Waxahatchee's phenomenal “Tiger's Blood.” And Eric recommended “Sovietistan,” a travelogue about Central Asia by Norwegian anthropologist Erika Fatland.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
