It is possible that terrestrial rockets and so on may have been misidentified as UFO's. For example, a rocket launched from India was thought to be a UFO in Australia. https://www.nine.com.au/australia-news/australians-think-india-rocket-launch-is-comet-of-ufo-20230715-p5ytlo.html However it is also statistically possible that just like humans, there may be multiple alien species of a benevolent, neutral and malevolent nature who maybe studying the earth and its resources for their needs and requirements, and act accordingly to their innate nature and sphere of influence. When even humans perform painful experiments on helpless animals in labs for gaining scientific data, it would not be beyond the moral code of some aliens for abducting humans for the same even if it meant their deaths as well. Since earth is not a unified entity at present due to its numerous divisions, conflicts and wars, it would be relatively easier for ambitious alien races to manipulate the situation as per their acquisitive policies without anyone being the wiser, and have probably done the same to a large extent in selected regions. If the earth was a unified entity, it could formulate effective doctrines for such issues that can deter any hostile transgressions, imho.

Tribal nations divorced from spiritual and humanistic values are obviously a danger to themselves and the world . As Wernher von Braun stated, “Science does not have a moral dimension. It is like a knife. If you give it to a surgeon or a murderer, each will use it differently.” I have already said earlier that ancient civilizations like India and China have nuclear weaponry and at the same have a 'no first strike' policy due to ethical and humanistic reasons, in comparison to the US, UK, France, Russia which have a volatile and inhumane 'first strike policy' while also being civilizations of recent origin and limited timeline. The latter have never evolved enough to create men like Buddha and Lao Tsu who had influenced the national cultures of their regions for the better. Victor Frankl had blamed nihilism for the unprecedented brutality and savagery of the second world war which originated in europe in the twentieth century. Buddha had criticized nihilistic philosophies in the Tripitaka as productive of vice and misconduct, around 2500 years back. I had stated about the same in this thread of mine. https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/105091-ethical-conduct-indispensable-for-attaining-enlightenment-or-buddhahood/ Similarly Lao Tzu's nondual teachings as well are in stark contrast to the dualistic fixation of warmongering nations. So it isn't always true that tribes evolve into warring nations to the point of mutual annihilation and get extinct like the dodos due to philosophical and sociological deficiencies. Some with time get smart, sees the bigger picture and exercises strategic restraint.

Industrial warfare has morphed into monstrous levels in modern times. The Allies and Nazis used to bomb each other's cities in Europe extracting heavy civilian casualties and destruction of industrial infrastructure. The villages were spared because they lacked the same. A nuclear war between the US, Europe and Russia would mean the total annihilation of these nations permanently reducing them into nightmarish radioactive landscapes where nothing grows. Better be a hippie or Amish or ignorant tribal living long peaceful lives rather than a hypernationalistic and technological fool who unwittingly brings about the destruction of his whole country due to materialistic greed or psychological insecurity issues, if you ask me.

There is no unconscious thinking and emoting in the enlightened state, and thought is used consciously for communication or planning voluntarily, and after the task the thinking process effortlessly subsides. This is obviously a challenge in unenlightened minds. Intuition is at an optimal state in enlightenment. I remember a young westerner telling me how an enlightened sage told him to avoid air travel in 2001 and be in the ashram in Asia, before 9/11. The enlightened state is also associated with high bliss levels effortlessly that is usually felt in people nearby as well. The degree of sensitivity is proportional to how much this is felt, and this usually develops in the company of a sage. Also the enlightened state is associated with high levels of prana or chi or life force, and which usually permeates to those around the sage. ( Disease at physical and psychological levels is associated with lower levels of prana in eastern medical systems of Ayurveda, Reiki, Pranic healing and Acupuncture, and which can be removed by increasing prana levels or removing blocks. ) The female enlightened sage Rajini Menon reported observing her physical ailments disappearing upon enlightenment, as well as gaining high energy levels, possibly due to permanent ending of leakage of prana through compulsive thinking and emoting. This is also a reason why cases of spontaneous healings comes up in people around an enlightened sage, both at psychological and physiological levels. The sage can also infuse high levels of prana into a fruit or leaf or glass of water which when taken results in healing. I know of an enlightened sage in India in the early twentieth century who used to infuse prana into jackfruit leaves and giving them for healing purposes which was successful, and leading to greater fame for him in the region. A man suffering from a certain disease came to the sage seeking healing. He was disappointed to be given an ordinary jackfruit leaf by the sage who asked him to eat it. The man went home with the leaf, lost it, and ate an another jackfruit leaf he had plucked. When he visited the sage later, he complained about the lack of healing after taking the leaf. When the sage enquired whether the man had taken the leaf which the sage had given, the man replied in the negative. This time, the sage gave him an another leaf which he was made to eat over there at the presence of the sage himself. This resulted in the man's healing later on. Healing associated in certain pilgrimage points could also be due to the high presence of prana in the region.

I use a combination of lotus poses as well as sitting in chair due to the comfort involved. But I found that sitting in lotus position or padmasana/siddhasana helped in calming and centering my mind faster than sitting in a chair. So I use a chair or lotus position as per my needs, which is comfort or faster calming of the mind. These days I use mainly sukhasana or ardha padmasana as they are the most comfortable poses for lotus position with similar results. I have elaborated more in this post of mine.

This is true. The method of using toilet paper first came up in China in the sixth century ad, and was used extensively by mass production by the fourteenth century in China. This concept was copied by the west in the middle of the nineteenth century. In 1857, the Joseph Gayetty introduced the first packaged commercial toilet paper in the US and toilet paper was popularised in europe in the twentieth century.

The meat and livestock industry contributes around 20 % of global human-caused greenhouse gas emissions annually. If everyone on earth becomes a vegan/vegetarian, on a temporary time period at least, this can mitigate global warming by a fifth and give a certain time period to develop new or mature new green technologies that can eliminate the other causes related to greenhouse warming, imho.

Essentially, zero or minimal crimes against women have a lot to do with the quality of internal administration and policing involved. This is complemented by conflict-proof international relations without wars and conflicts. The Epstein cases in the US, Dutrov paedophilia scandal in Belgium involving high-profile bureaucratic and political figures, UK Islamist rape gangs exacerbated by police indifference, and the recent rape and brutality scandal involving multiple police officers and police chiefs in Portugal shows that accountability should start at the highest level, failing which you are bound to have a low threshold of women's safety and empowerment. At the external level, it is important to ensure conflict free and harmonious relations between nations, as women and children are usually the one's who suffer the most in wars and conflicts. The two world wars resulted in systematic violence and mass rape of millions of women in europe which has been well-documented, and all of which could have been easily prevented by capable leaders, statesmen and diplomats which europe lacked back then as per historians. In fact, the phrase 'widows and orphans' are often used in the context of war and highlighting their vulnerable status. I consider poor leadership synonymous with both internal and external disharmony. So a quality administrative model that enables both external and internal harmony can create a secure ecosystem and culture that can bring about the necessary empowerment of women at various levels, and enable them to become effective leaders themselves who can further empower the said model as well.

The Sami people actually enjoyed a sociologically advanced society ahead of their times. They have a profound, centuries-old relationship with nature rooted in sustainable living, seasonal migration, and a spiritual worldview that sees all elements of the natural world as interconnected They traditionally maintained a peaceful, non-militarized society without a concept of organized warfare, instead facing European conflicts as an indigenous group caught between rival expanding states. The heavy wars and conflicts between the european states however extracted a heavy toll on them , especially in the two world wars which originated in europe. This is true to some extent, but not everywhere. The Native Americans in North America had military successes against the US military forces as I stated earlier citing the example of Crazy Horse and others as well. The Chichimeca War in the southern regions of Mexico between the invading spaniards and Chicimeca Nations were eventually won by the Chicimecas, forcing the spaniards to sue for peace.

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...
