The indigenous Sami people in europe are also a good example of people who got sidelined by the other invading european groups on account of superior military and economic ability and subject to discrimination. https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/sweden-s-indigenous-sami-community-complain-of-human-rights-abuses/2710836 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/30/a-lot-of-collective-trauma-swedens-indigenous-sami-people-speak-to-truth-commission https://www.euronews.com/2022/06/15/un-finds-finland-violated-political-rights-of-indigenous-sami-people The American natives enjoyed military successes against the US initially, till superior technology , logistics and mass attacks against unarmed native civilians changed the tide. Crazy Horse was a native American general who was never defeated in any battle with the US, till he was deceitfully killed in an American army camp where he was invited for peaceful negotiations. However their large numbers and ability for guerrila warfare in forests and irregular terrain, meant that the US eventually came to negotiations with them, allowing them native dependent nations with a certain degree of sovereignty.

This is a festival that takes place in a certain village in India. I have already explained about this event in an another thread where there was trolling on the same. The idea behind is to remove one's revulsion and aversion towards cowdung, especially in new affluent generations in the farming community and keep them grounded without any false pride or extreme egoism due to wealth accumulation.
-
Yeah, there was a short-sighted trend in India stating that chemical fertilizers and pesticides are scientific by the modernists, and should be used instead of yucky cowdung so as to look cool and modern. Fortunately, the natural traditions of organic farming survived the onslaught and soldiered on in India, and now India has the second largest area under cultivation in the world in organic farming. It was the first ranked, but got overtaken by Australia after it became known that dementia is the highest killer in australia with correlation between the disease and use of pesticides noted. https://medicolegalexpress.com.au/pesticide-exposure-leading-to-parkinsons-disease/

Even though the jews, christians and muslims are part of the abrahamic family, they are constantly at each others throats for centuries. I think this may be due to the dualistic theology in the abrahamic religions with their emphasis on relative good and evil, and this may have percolated to their political systems as well, which would explain their conflict-prone nature manifesting in the two world wars, cold war, crusades and jihads. Without acquiring a nondual philosophy as a substratum they are bound to be conflict-prone habitually.
-
Yeah, I am really glad that cowdung and natural herbicides are used in organic farming in India, as opposed to chemical fertilizers and pesticides which are responsible for higher rates of cancer, dementia and neurological disorders throughout the world. All that hype with respect to so-called scientific chemical pesticides is fortunately dying out due to clear evidence and documentation of their correlation to diseases.

India has made giant strides in Robotic telesurgery, and this is considered to be a vital technology that can close capability gaps in far flung medical clinics in rural India inexpensively. SSI Mantra is India's first tele-robotic system which enables surgeries in faraway regions by specialist doctors based in cities and towns. The SSI Mantra was used by an Indian origin doctor in Guyana in 2026 to perform the world's longest robot assisted cardiac telesurgery across 20000 km between Guyana and India. Prior to this two of the world's first two robotic telesurgeries were also conducted in India as well. https://www.pratidintime.com/health/india-sets-record-with-worlds-first-robotic-cardiac-telesurgeries-8609543 An Indian gynaecologist (Dr. Ashima Taneja) also performed 50 robotic gynaecological surgeries in 38 operating days in the year 2024, using a single SSI Mantra Robotic Surgical System and has set a new world record for International Book of Records. Similarly the SSI Mantra M3 system was used by an Indian doctor in 2025 to perform the world's first long-distance robotic bariatric telesurgery. There are also SSI Mantra units of a mobile and portable nature unit built onto a heavy vehicle chassis and which is designed to bring remote robotic surgical capabilities directly to rural and underserved doorsteps and inaccessible regions due to harsh terrain. So dynamic advances in robotic technology is being harnessed to plug medical capability gaps in rural and far flung areas as well with minimal expense and which can also reduce the financial, logistical and emotional strain in the patient. The Gurugram based World Laparoscopy Hospital in India also recently set a world record by training a thousand surgeons and gynaecologists from 108 countries in robotic surgery as well. https://medicalbuyer.co.in/wlh-sets-new-world-record-trains-1000-doctors-in-robotic-surgery/ https://theprint.in/india/robotic-surgery-poised-to-transform-healthcare-beyond-indias-metro-cities-expert/2908046/ All these world records are proof that we are moving in the right direction in plugging medical capability gaps in rural and far flung areas.

These are historical facts, not propaganda. Denmark is ceding the US permanent military control over Greenland, so I suppose you want to portray them as flawless angels , which is fine with me.

Orienting and navigating a multi-cultural environment can be a good exercise in deconditioning oneself and increasing self-awareness, along with patience , acceptance and tolerance. Learning about various cultures and habits can come useful in professional life if you are managing a team with different nationalities, races and religions. It is definitely good training for a budding diplomat. You can also get to learn and gain best habits and features of other nations. These traits can also help us a lot in case we eventually come in contact with intelligent alien species of other planets. Rather than unconsciously shooting and bombing them in terror and fear of the unknown, we can consciously approach them with mutual goodwill and friendship so as to profit from their company.

I am not Chinese. The chinese has an issue with falun gong due to falun gong's discriminatory teachings against homosexuality and denial of modern medicine. However, stating that the Chinese are indulged in human experimentation on falun gong is far-fetched and is typical western propaganda which downplays their own excesses in China under chinese monarchy and their own role in bringing up a communist chinese government instead of a democratic one. The western powers including the US were democratic themselves back then but were concerned more with extracting economic and territorial concessions from monarchical China rather than treating it as an equal or paving the foundations for a democratic china back then, (if they were indeed serious about their self-proclaimed roles of champions of democracy back then.) So now we have a communist china indignant at the indignities perpetrated on it by the western so-called democratic nations during their period of exploitation. You are talking about discrimination by the Chinese against religious minorities in China forgetting the atrocities of the US against the american minorities of native americans, blacks and hispanics over there. Also atrocities of the US army in its invasive campaigns in Mexico, philliphines, Haiti, Panama,Iraq, Vietnam, Afghanistan and others are quite evident. Also as Jimmy Carter stated earlier, China since 1979 had not engaged in major wars while the US has been engaged in many, with the obvious human rights violations that come with it, considering that bombing of civilian and urban regions are a major part of its tactical doctrine regardless of the civilian casualties.
-
See, the media company that reported this is based in the US so there is a possibility of bias and propaganda. This has not been confirmed by neutral sources. It is possible that some atrocities of this sort happen in China, and it is also highly possible that prisoners of wars or others are used for similar purposes in some clandestine bases in the US. The US president and political officials does not necessarily have to know what is happening in such bases in the country and also will not be able to do much about it.
-
That could be because what I am saying is contradictory to capitalist owned western media narratives that you revere and worship as the absolute truth and nothing but the truth.

China does not have concentration camps similar to that in europe during world war era used for systematic genocide against the Jews, Gypsies , Slavs, transgenders and homosexuals. China does not have discriminatory laws against transgenders and homosexuals in its legislation, and is even considered a safe haven for jews for centuries. China has arbitrarily detained more than one million Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in a network of internment camps in the Xinjiang region since 2017 , and the Chinese government describes these facilities as voluntary "vocational education and training centers" meant to reduce poverty and counter extremism. This is possibly due to the Islamic insurgency in Xinjiang. They have not conducted invasive wars against islamic countries in a manner similar to that of the west in the aftermath of 9/11 and which is still ongoing.

China is an ancient civilization while US as a nation is just two centuries old. Even in Europe, apart from the romans and greeks, most countries are only a few centuries old . Both US and Europe (which includes Russia) does not have an ancient timeline necessary for solid wisdom and consequently I would say they are bound to be conflict-prone and prone to strategic errors as a consequence. The two world wars and cold war originating in the west is a major example of this. Also both China and India has nuclear weaponry but at the same time they have a no first strike policy due to ethical and humanistic reasons. This is in sharp contrast to the American, British, French and Russian policy of a nuclear first strike policy regardless of the consequences, and who at the same time are also at loggerheads with each other without any meaningful attempts at diplomacy and negotiations symbolic of wise policy making or wise understanding of the bigger picture. Any moment these guys can cease to exist due to poor judgement taken in the fog or rage of war.

How can you justify numerous invasions and replacing democratically elected governments with military dictatorships killing thousands of political dissidents for the sake of unethical trade, money and profits saying a dismissive "Most of these are over trade. " ! If these governments were stable and had flourished without external interventions , south america itself with its vast natural resources could have become a wealthy continent in all respects and contributed greatly to the global economy and stability. Instead we have an underdeveloped continent with poverty, technological backwardness and high illiteracy that should have been wiped out long back by its leaders. The Nazis for all their horrors never claimed to be champions of democracy , freedom loving, ethical and moral, and committed to human rights , and was honest at least in that regard.

The US, guided by its deluded political philosophy of manifest destiny, had indeed had waged wars against its neighbors. Its invasive war against canada ended in failure inspite of Jefferson's exhortation that Canada can be had by mere marching. However its war against mexico was successful leading to capture of over 55% of Mexican territory . This is a reason for the bad blood and ongoing feud between the US and Mexico. US had also waged wars and invasions in south american countries of Nicaragua, Haiti,Dominican repubic, Grenada, Panama, as well as a failed invasion of Cuba. The CIA was instrumental in unseating democratically elected governments in South America like that of Brazil, Guatemala,Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay replacing them with military dictatorships during Operation Condor whenever the corporate interests of the US was threatened by them. Many of these US allied military dictorships resulted in genocides in their countries, which was ignored by the west as long as their corporate interests were taken care of by these dictatorships. Chilean dictator Pinochet responsible for the torture and deaths of thousands of dissidents in Chile counted George Bush and Margaret Thatcher as his best friends who always bailed him out of trouble when accusations of human rights violations came up. Consequently the west and Latin America had essentially been at loggerheads with each other over the former's support of the military dictatorhsips.

What are your suggestions for mitigating the west ? Most of the conflicts and wars had and are still emerging from there , including the two world wars which originated in europe killing over a hundred million people, and which was constantly conflict-prone ! Europe is heavily traumatized by the incessant wars and world wars which has spilled an ocean of blood, and so is not much into warmongering at present but its role has now been taken up by the US. With respect to the US, former American president and Nobel prize winner for peace Jimmy Carter has lamented its continuous warmongering attitude and had favorably compared China with the US in this regard...

Maybe if the west did not attack and exploit China during the opium wars and treated it justly and fairly, it would not have become a communist dictatorship at present. Plutocrats and unethical capitalists ruling western countries through the deep state with politicians in their payroll and shaping the capitalist owned media narratives to manipulate the western middle/lower classes to do its bidding, back then and now, are the primary culprits for this debacle, imho.

Issue could be the legacy of the Opium wars in the nineteenth century involving China and west comprising of UK and France . The British smuggled opium and drugs to China back then reaping good profits from the same regardless of the ethical and moral concerns. Chinese authorities stopped the practice due to widespread addiction and consequent socio-economic issues. Angered by the ban on drugs, the UK and later on France, waged war against China and successfully forced them to lift the prohibition of drugs as well as extracting further economic and territorial concessions. The impotence of the Chinese government in dealing with the Western colonial powers led to the communist revolution in china later on. At present China is the third most powerful country on earth in economic and military terms and have nuclear arsenals that can wipe out any belligerent country or continent on earth . It's influence is fast increasing in Latin America, Asia and Africa. So consequently they are deeply hated in the west as China has emerged as a superpower resulting in increasing reduction of global influence and profits by western entities.

India's medical tourism market had reached 8.7 billion dollars in 2025 , and is expected to reach 16.2 billion dollars by 2030. https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/india-medical-tourism-healthcare-tourist-visa-cheap-surgery-treatment-11763707 https://medicalbuyer.co.in/india-medical-tourism-market-to-hit-usd-53683-7m/ https://www.hindustantimes.com/lifestyle/health/how-british-patient-swapped-a-3-year-nhs-wait-for-knee-surgery-in-india-and-saved-26000-101786428125654.html https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/us/american-woman-praises-india-s-healthcare-says-us-system-makes-patients-go-into-debt-101774713451817.html Most of our customers come from the west due to spiralling healthcare costs of a bankrupting nature and which cost only a fraction in India. Long waiting lists are also a problem over there. I remember reading the interview of a retired American academic who decided to live the remainder of his life in India. His reasoning was that his savings would be wiped out in a few years in the US post-retirement due to the high costs of living there, while it enabled him to lead a comfortable life in India with dignity and grace for the remainder of his life due to inexpensive healthcare. He eventually died at the age of 88, getting adequate medical and healthcare treatment in India.

In some parts of rural India with rugged terrain cut off from access to high tech hospital facilities in the cities and towns, there are traditional healers and so on who indulge in some healing practices , some of which are valid and some are essentially superstitious. In traditional medical systems of India like Ayurveda and Siddha also, there are herbal medicines and treatment methods for snakebites, but which were not sought for treatment by the person in question. All cities and towns in India have super-speciality hospitals but the challenge for the Indian government is to ensure the same in inaccessible rural areas or clinics or rapid evacuation from rural to good hospitals in urban areas. I remember reading of hikers in the west injured after animal attacks or fire and dying due to blood loss before they were evacuated by air to faraway good hospitals. So such challenges are present around the world. In India, cows are considered sacred due to their economic output in an agrarian society . It is possible that ancient Indian ayurvedic physicians noted correlations between cows and immunity to small-pox, and this could have led to the widespread presence of cows in Indian cities and villages since ancient times. This prevented the spread of small-pox in India for milleniums while it was rampaging and causing heavy casualties around the world till small pox vaccinations came into being in 1796.

There are yogis with psychic abilities in India, but not in every corner. I have personally witnessed, heard and read about the same. I don't consider it a major deal, as anyone can develop these abilities with the right practices and environment. There are some people in the west as well with some inborn psychic abilities and I remember reading articles about them. So it is not much of a mystery over there, though they may not be able to fully understand the mechanism behind it. There are enlightened sages with highly advanced psychic abilities as well. What is said to be magic could be related to a combination of these genuine psychic abilities of some amateurs as well as cleverly engineered optical illusions . A genuine sage would not show off these abilities unless it is for inspiring faith or for practical utilities. I really wish such sages were there in all countries, as it would help bring down the dominant materialistic paradigm in many countries around the world which is putting blinders on morality and spirituality as such. -
As per some scholars, the date September 11, 2001, was chosen by Islamic terrorists because of the european victory over the Turks on September 11,1683 in the battle of Vienna, which broke Turkish power permanently. After this battle, the Turks would gain no further ground in Europe and would never again challenge Vienna though they engaged in the Greek, Assyrian and Armenian genocides later on. The grooming gang scandal in the UK is an another recent manifestation of religious prejudice and hatred of some demented Islamists. A core belief in traditional and political Islam is that God's law (Sharia) is best for global society, and most Islamists want governments to use Sharia instead of Western legal systems. Taliban and the later ISIS were considered to be the epitome of an ideal society, and the Islamists felt that it was their holy mission and act of compassion to deliver Sharia governance to other countries as well even if it includes extreme violence. Public opinion polls however show that most everyday Muslims want democracy and fair legal systems, viewing their faith as a personal and moral guide rather than a tool for global conquest. They are fed up of fatwas, beheadings and amputations , lack of music and entertainment considered as Haram by the authorities. The women detest polygamy and talaq (instant divorce), burqas and other sharia rules but have to comply submissively fearing brutal punishment, and even endorse the same due to stockholm syndrome. Even liberal Islamic sects like sufism and Ahmediyas emphasizing music and scholarship respectively have been subject to persecution by the Islamists for having differences with mainstream Islamic doctrine. Some Islamic leaders have also endorsed use of wmd against western targets . Vigilance and pragmatism is key to preventing such weaponry ending up in the hands of terrorists.

Mastery of mass media. If you have control over mass media, you can manipulate and shape narratives that define yourself or your clients as world-class or the best of the best or having both substance and style, even if the contrary is true. You can even commit a crime and look innocent and righteous through skillful narratives. -
The Macdonald Triad is used in crime-fighting to predict violent behavior in adults, and is a psychological toolkit used by the FBI. The triad links cruelty to animals, obsession with fire-setting, and persistent bedwetting past the age of five, to violent behaviors and especially criminal behavior later on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macdonald_triad Studies also show that communities with slaughterhouses and meatpacking plants experience higher rates of total arrests and violent or sexual crimes compared to areas with other industries.The findings revealed that an increase in slaughterhouse employment significantly predicted higher rates of total arrests, violent crimes, rape, and other sex offenses, distinct from the effects seen in other manufacturing sectors. https://www.newrootsinstitute.org/articles/violence-translating-outside-the-slaughterhouse So veganism/vegetarianism is also bound to get sociological results for the better and provide a shot in the arm for the war against crime as well.

The Self, our Being, is awareness. Thoughts and feelings comes and goes, but awareness remains constant always. The attributes of Self or Awareness is peace, bliss and contentment. Greatest mystery is that we get entangled in our thoughts and emotions in the pursuit of pleasure forgetting the Self, and inadvertently create a nightmarish cocoon of psychological suffering for ourselves. It is like begging for scraps and pennies while sitting on a treasure chest and ignorant of the same due to amnesia. Some people arrive at the knowledge of the Self intuitively, while others come to the same through spiritual philosophies and authentic religious methodologies. Some unfortunates however never learn of their own Self during their lifetimes though it is the closest to them.
