Glimpsing other truths from below the glass floor

Vedic Dhyana Abstract Noun भाव वाचक संज्ञा 

Western interpreters are often confused by this strange presentation in the Veda where abstractions are personalities, eg, Mitra

But this is because the Veda doesn’t fit their paradigm. In their world there is something called an abstract

But think about it? Have you ever met friendship? Or love? You either feel harmony and friendship or you don’t. When you do you have given birth to Mitra within you

Let us take this further. The so called impersonal is not impersonal in the Veda but can be intimate अंतरंग and close आत्मीय।

And the personal or ego might itself be an abstract. So one must dive into the Veda direct and understand it on its own terms. The Individual is the Universe and the Devas are an integral part of this universe. It is both highly personal and impersonal at the same time

Scientists and philosophers have fallen for a tempting buzzword: “emergence.” It’s invoked to explain life, consciousness, and the flow of time: when simple parts combine, it is claimed, they sometimes produce new entities with powers their parts could never predict. But philosopher John Heil calls this out as an intellectual sleight of hand. “Emergence,” he argues, doesn’t reveal hidden truths—it masks our ignorance, mistaking gaps in explanation for gaps in reality. "Philosophers disagree on many things—on the nature of causation, for instance—but disagreements over emergence are more unsettling," argues Heil. It’s time to drop the magic word and face the real challenge: uncovering, in concrete detail, how simple parts can give rise to complex wholes. Tap the link now to read more. iai.tv/articles/emerg…

Walker, a sleep scientist, posits in his book Why We Sleep that ‘sleep was the first state of life on this planet, and it was from sleep that wakefulness emerged’. It may be argued that in mechanising our sleep, we mechanised our waking consciousness too.

When I was very young, my parents migrated to the Idukki hills from the plains of central Kerala. Traveling there, you could trace “civilization” thinning out with each mile: tarred roads gave way to broken stone, stone led to red mud, and then the red mud vanished too. From there, you just made your own way. That, for us, was the line between the state and its absence. To us, the state wasn't an abstract political concept. It was as tangible as anything could get. It was the electric wire overhead, metalled roads, the khaki bag of a postman walking up the trail. We didn't fear the state as much as we felt its absence. We longed for the state to be there.

Is it time to drop the term “democracy,” and talk instead about more concrete ideas, such as elections and wealth redistribution? Or is democracy still our best weapon against tyranny? With radically different definitions of democracy on all sides, some critics argue its best to abandon the term altogether.

What Makes This Culture of Humanitarian Disarmament Distinctive

by Ghassan Shahrour countercurrents.org/2026/09/what-m…

Ghassan Shahrour examines the culture that sustains humanitarian disarmament beyond treaties and legal obligations. The article explores how humanitarian values become durable through survivor testimony, volunteer action, human security, moral limits, public memory, education, and cultural practices. It argues that disarmament is not only a matter of diplomacy or policy but also of shaping social norms around unacceptable harm. The movement against anti-personnel landmines illustrates how survivors, civil society, volunteers, and institutions can transform experiences of suffering into lasting public expectations and legal change. The article considers how this culture connects grassroots movements, institutions, and communities in sustaining humanitarian norms across generations.

Deeply Human Depiction of Socio-Economic Reality in Punjabi Short Stories

by Bharat Dogra countercurrents.org/2026/09/deeply…

This article examines how Punjabi short stories capture the socio-economic realities of rural life through deeply human characters and everyday experiences. Bharat Dogra discusses stories depicting farmers losing ancestral land, widows enduring years of labour, families struggling with poverty, children confronting hardship, and villagers placing their hopes in migration or financial speculation. The stories of Balbir Parwana, Gurbachan Singh Bhullar, Navtej Singh, Baljinder Nasrali and Ajmer Sidhu reveal how economic pressures shape relationships, memories, aspirations and choices. The article also reflects on the value of translating literature across India’s many languages, enabling readers to encounter diverse regional experiences and social realities.

New academic essay on the nature of consciousness. This describes the transcendent "I" in terms of the relationship between the many individual egos and one universal infinite intrinsic awareness, understood from a historical perspective. AI written blurb: 

Is the certainty you have of your own awareness the same thing as being one with the ground of all awareness? The Locus and the Ground traces that question across two traditions that rarely get put in the same room — Descartes through Kant, Husserl, and contemporary cosmopsychism on one side; Advaita, Kashmir Shaivism, Samkhya, and Madhyamaka on the other — and finds the same unresolved problem showing up independently in both: how does one ground of consciousness become many finite minds? Co-developed in dialogue with Claude (Anthropic).

In Loving Memory of Vasantididi

“Hello, my singing cuckoo! All well? How was your day?”

These loving, caring words still ring in my ears. They belong to Vasantididi—Vadanti Rao, a senior sadhika of Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, whose passing leaves behind a deep sense of loss, gratitude and reverence.

Vasantididi was a melodious singer of devotional songs dedicated to Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, an artiste par excellence, and had also served as an assistant to the Mother’s secretary, Shri Madhav Pandit. She was a person of extraordinary refinement, warmth and devotion.

One of my deepest aspirations during my one-year stay at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in 2010–11, for my post-doctoral work, was to spend time with some of the veteran Ashramites who had the rare privilege of living in the physical nearness of The Mother and of having the Darshan of Sri Aurobindo. That aspiration was wonderfully fulfilled when I had the opportunity to be Vasantididi’s neighbour at Ganapati House—a room that had earlier been given by The Mother to Prof. Kireet Joshi.

Though already in her eighties, Vasantididi possessed a remarkable vitality and dedication. In the late evenings, she would light incense, sit before the photographs of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, meditate, and then begin her work—writing, editing and proofreading—which would often continue until the early hours of the morning.

As I too would be working late into the night, reading, writing and preparing my post-doctoral thesis, we would sometimes have beautiful conversations across the doors of our respective rooms. Her affection was deeply motherly. Many times she would ask whether I had had my lunch or dinner. If I had not, she would lovingly offer me something from her tiffin and make sure that I ate. Sometimes she would share something her sister had brought for her. Such simple gestures revealed the immense warmth of her heart.

There were also many memorable music sessions with her. Her voice carried not merely musical beauty, but something of the devotion that had shaped her entire life.

Our association, however, went back much further. Vasantididi, along with Panditji, had visited us in 1979 and had dinner with our family at our home in Vallabh Vidyanagar.

Years later, when I met her at the Ashram, I would often ask her, with great curiosity, to share her reminiscences of the early years of the Ashram and anecdotes about Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. Her face would light up as she lovingly recalled those precious memories.

Among the many experiences she shared, one remains particularly etched in my heart—her recollection of the Darshan of Sri Aurobindo. What she narrated is beyond my capacity to adequately express in words. She told me that when disciples came for Darshan, Sri Aurobindo would offer pranam to the Divine—the Brahman—in the heart of each disciple.

For me, this was not merely an anecdote. It was a glimpse into a world of spiritual experience that belonged to another era—a world that Vasantididi had herself witnessed and carried within her.

Today, as she leaves the physical world, I feel an immense sense of gratitude to The Mother for having given me the rare opportunity to know such a soul, to live beside her, to listen to her music, to hear her memories and, above all, to experience her affection.

Vasantididi was not merely a senior sadhika whom I happened to know. For a brief but precious period, she became a loving presence in my life—like a gentle bridge between the living memory of the Ashram’s early days and my own journey of seeking and learning.

Her voice, her songs, her affectionate questions, her stories and her luminous memories will remain with me.

My heartfelt pranam to Vasantididi.

May she rest in the loving embrace of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, whose Presence she served, cherished and carried throughout her life.

With deep gratitude and reverence.

Each rik in the Veda is a stage in the spiritual development of the Rishi

This is very obvious to a practitioner

If one spends a lot of time with the rik and absorbs it completely in one’s consciousness, then new realizations may happen spontaneously

I noticed while chanting that specific Beeja mantras hit specific chakras in the body. This means that if one repeats them then those chakras may be opened up too

The flow of energy while chanting a mantra may move from the gross to the subtle and even to the level of the cells. If it can be sustained the mastery over sound may help one gain mastery over the body and potentially help one cure any ailments

Marcuse — godfather of the New Left — published Repressive Tolerance in 1965. The most influential political document most people have never read. Its argument: tolerating wrong ideas is itself oppression. True tolerance requires the suppression of intolerant ideas. Tolerating everything is repressive. Suppressing the wrong things is liberating. The argument is circular by design – it puts the conclusion inside the premise and dares you to find the exit.

The practical implication was stated explicitly: withdrawal of tolerance from movements that are regressive, from speech that reinforces existing hierarchies. The left decides which movements are regressive. Everyone else is silenced – not despite tolerance but in its name. The most sophisticated justification for censorship ever produced, dressed in the vocabulary of liberation.

The French Theory picked up the tools and made them elegant. Foucault made the Frankfurt critique of power literary. Derrida made the critique of meaning philosophical. Deleuze made the critique of identity aesthetic. What had been a political program became a cultural sensibility – which is why it spread further and faster than the original. You can argue with a political program. A cultural sensibility is in the air you breathe.

Obviously I'm on @arya_amsha's side in this debate, but it's worth exploring the "trad" phenomenon in a more general sense. In the pre-modern period, Hindus did not see themselves as adhering to "tradition." What we know as traditions, sampradayas, lineages, etc., were all embedded in the structure of society itself, bound up in an interlinking web of patronage, ritual obligations, and kinship ties. "Tradition" in the way we understand it today was itself a product of secularization, when "religion" was privatized as a subset of society, alongside politics, economics, etc.

Modernity "happened to" us. It was "done to" us. One of the weird asymmetries is that Modernity was never a natural outcome of the direction of our own organic society. We were first slapped in the face by modernity in the 19th century, which made us self-aware and view our own practices as "backwards". Some early modern Indians tried to parlay with it and negotiate with it, while trying to retain our sense of self. But no one picked up their threads in the 20th century. Since the initial slap, we've basically spent the last 200 years reacting to one radical and irreversible change brought about my modernity and technology after another. We have no language to talk about what was done to us. Naipaul is brilliant on this in An Area of Darkness.

The Saffron Idiots of Red-Green Alliance

The "Sanghified" Hindus—those steeped in the #PseudoHindutva ideology of the RSS-BJP ecosystem, often proudly waving the saffron flag while chanting "decolonisation"—have, ironically, swallowed hook, line, and sinker the very anti-colonial framework peddled by secularised, pro-Islamic left-liberals.

This is no minor lapse; it is a complete internalisation of the post-independence pro-Islamic leftist narrative that vilifies British rule as the supreme evil of Indian history, while airbrushing, whitewashing, or romanticising centuries of Islamic invasions, tyrannical sultanates, and Mughal exploitation as somehow "benign," "syncretic," or mere "passing phases" in the nation's story.

You do not arrive good

 Epicurus – for the weekend…

His name now adorns luxury restaurants and gourmet culture. He lived on bread, water, and cheese, and called it a feast.

The most misunderstood philosopher who ever lived:

1. Everyone thinks Epicurus means pleasure in the modern sense – excess, luxury, sophisticated consumption. He means the opposite. Pleasure for Epicurus is the absence of pain and anxiety. Not the addition of more. The subtraction of everything unnecessary. The hedonic calculus runs backward from what we assume: the richest life has the fewest dependencies.

2. Ataraxia — tranquility, freedom from mental disturbance — is his highest goal. Not achievement. Not recognition. Not the maximization of experience. The quiet mind. In an age of engineered anxiety, algorithmic outrage, and infinite scroll, this is not a relaxation tip. It is a radical political position.

3. He said friendship is the greatest of all goods. Not family, not status, not wealth – friendship. Chosen, voluntary, reciprocal. His school was a garden outside Athens, open to everyone regardless of class or gender. The original civil society: a small community of people who decided to think and live well together, outside the noise of the city.

4. On death: when you exist, death is not present. When death is present, you no longer exist. Therefore death is never your problem. This is the most liberating argument in Western philosophy, and the one modern therapeutic culture — which has monetized anxiety about mortality into an entire industry — most needs and least wants to hear.

5. The Epicurean weekend looks like this: simple food, a walk, a conversation with someone you actually like, enough silence to think. No content consumption as a substitute for experience. No status performance. No optimization. The man who gave his name to the gourmet menu would have found the menu exhausting and the company at the table more interesting than anything on it.

In the middle of the journey of our life

I found myself within a forest dark,

For the straightforward pathway had been lost.

Dante wrote these words in exile, banished from Florence, sentenced to death by burning if he returned.

The dark forest was not a literary device. It was autobiography – a man who had lost everything: his city, his political career, his life as it was supposed to be. He responded by writing the most ambitious poem in Western literature. And by putting his enemies in hell by name. The greatest act of literary revenge in history – and the most honest political document of the medieval world.

1. The Inferno is a political taxonomy. Not an abstract moral catalogue – a specific, populated map of sin with real Florentines, real popes, real emperors in their assigned circles. Dante doesn’t generalize. He names. Evil is not abstract. It is particular, individual, and traceable. The system of lies has architects. Hell is not a metaphor. It is an address book.

2. Everyone assumes the worst sins are the most dramatic – lust, passion, violence. Dante reverses this completely. The deeper you descend, the colder and more calculated the evil. The lustful are near the top, still human, still passionate. The violent are in the middle. Fraud — the deliberate corruption of trust and language — is near the bottom. Treachery is the floor. The liar sits deeper in hell than the murderer. Violence destroys bodies. Fraud destroys the social fabric. Treachery destroys civilization itself. Zakłamanie is in the ninth circle – systemic lying as the ultimate civilizational evil. This is not a coincidence.

3. At the very bottom, frozen in ice, is Satan – not raging, not dramatic. Weeping, immobile, trapped in the ice his own wings created by beating against it. The ultimate evil is not fire and fury. It is the cold, mechanical, self-defeating repetition of the betrayal that got you there. Every institution built on systemic lying ends here: frozen, sustaining the very condition it cannot escape.

4. Purgatorio is Groundhog Day. Phil Connors’ loop made theological. The souls on the mountain are not being punished – they are being transformed. They repeat, they practice, they purge. The mountain is climbed by becoming lighter – not by carrying less, but by needing less. Dante understood what Aristotle meant by virtue as habit: you do not arrive good. You become good, through the loop, until the loop is no longer necessary.

5. Dante’s guide through Inferno and Purgatorio is Virgil – human reason at its highest. Reason can map hell. Reason can climb the mountain. But at the threshold of Paradiso, Virgil stops. Beatrice — love, grace, the thing beyond calculation — takes over. This is not anti-intellectual. It is the acknowledgment that reason is necessary but not sufficient. You can understand everything that is wrong, map every circle of the descent, name every sin and every sinner – and still not know how to rebuild what was lost. That requires something reason alone cannot supply, and cannot even fully describe.

6. Paradiso is not reward. It is the natural condition of the soul that has completed its transformation – where what you want and what is good have finally become the same thing. Aristotle called it eudaimonia. Dante calls it the love that moves the sun and the other stars. The loop ends. Groundhog February 3rd arrives.

7. The man who wrote the most comprehensive map of sin, transformation, and transcendence in Western literature began it lost, alone, and condemned. That opening line is a location report from someone who went into the dark and kept writing – kept mapping, kept climbing, kept believing the forest has an exit and that the exit is earned, not given. It is so recognizable as everyone has been in that forest. That’s why it survives.

The Divine Comedy is not the work of someone who had it figured out. It is the work of someone who didn’t – and went anyway. That is the only way any of this ever gets done.

https://x.com/i/status/2078279412810743929

Don Quixote is the first modern novel and the most misread book in Western literature. Everyone knows the windmills. Almost nobody understands what they mean.

1. The obvious reading: a foolish old man reads too many chivalric romances, loses his mind, and mistakes windmills for giants. Cervantes mocking medieval fantasy. The birth of literary irony. Correct – and completely insufficient. The man who mistakes windmills for giants is not the interesting character. The man who looks at a world of only windmills and decides it is not enough – that man is the whole argument.

2. Don Quixote is not mad. Or rather – his madness is the most lucid response available to a man who understands that the world has lost something real and refuses to accept the diminished version on offer. He doesn’t mistake reality. He insists on a better one. The windmills are giants not because he cannot see windmills, but because a world with only windmills and no giants is a world not worth inhabiting. This is not delusion. This is refusal.

3. Cervantes wrote this in 1605 – the exact moment Spain was beginning its long decline from the greatest empire in the world to a diminished regional power. Don Quixote is Spain’s elegy for itself – the knight-errant as the Spanish imperial ideal, aging, ridiculous, magnificent, refusing to accept that the age of heroism is over. The elegy of a civilization that senses its own greatness receding and cannot accept it. Every civilization in decline produces its Don Quixote – the figure who insists on living by the old codes in a world that has moved on, and is called mad for it.

4. Sancho Panza is the realist – the peasant who follows the madman for material gain, practical, grounded, undeceived. And then something happens. Slowly, over the course of the novel, Sancho is transformed. The madman’s vision changes how the peasant sees the world. By the end, when Don Quixote renounces his delusions on his deathbed and returns to being plain Alonso Quijano, it is Sancho who begs him to remain Don Quixote. The realist has been converted by the idealist. The dream outlasts the dreamer. This is the most hopeful thing in the book – and the most heartbreaking.

5. The Last Man accepts the world as it is and finds it sufficient. Don Quixote refuses. He is the anti-Last Man – the man who looks at a flat, disenchanted, administered world and says: I will not live in it as given. The price is ridicule, defeat, and death. But the alternative — Sancho’s world before Don Quixote entered it — is no alternative at all. A world without the madman who insists on giants is a world that has agreed, quietly, to be only windmills forever.

6. He dies sane. This is the tragedy. On his deathbed, Don Quixote renounces the knight-errant, recovers his reason, and becomes plain Alonso Quijano again. Sancho weeps. The reader weeps. We weep not because the dream was false – but because sanity, in this case, is the real defeat. The man who finally accepts the world as it is has finally lost. Cervantes understood that the opposite of madness is not wisdom. Sometimes it is surrender.

7. What we are doing here is Don Quixote work. Insisting on giants in a world that has agreed to see only windmills. Naming the lie in a culture built on performing it.

Every person in this series who told the truth, refused to comply, insisted on a different reality is a version of Don Quixote. Pointing at the heights in an age that finds them embarrassing. We will be called mad for it – we have been called mad for it.

Sancho is converting. The dream is spreading. And heroic times are ahead.

Victory of Truth and Love and Peace and Harmony and Light upon earth

 Sweet and infinite Mother, Mother Divine, Maa, Mother Sri Aurobindo, Thou art the one Hope, the only hope left for the redemption of our earth and the rescue of humanity from its deplorable state. If You withdrew then the earth would surely collapse and all our civilisation hurtle towards the Abyss. But because Thou art we still can hope and dare. Because Thou art we still can struggle for the Victory of Truth and Love and Peace and Harmony and Light upon earth. Because Thou art we still can strive for the transformation of earthly life into the figure of divinity it is meant to be.

Maa, it is Thy Presence and Thy Work that makes life interesting and worthwhile. Else what joy is there is living simply to satisfy hungers and appetites. To live for selfish ends, for small personal goals is indeed like living in a dark hole. But because Thou art there and Thou hast given us a wonderful work to do, we can find joy, true joy in life.

Maa, You are our very breath and our heartbeat, nay even more, our very core and essence. Without Thee we would cease to exist. Thou art indeed the Life of our life, the Intelligence in our mind, the Soul of our bodily substance, the Self of our self, the path and the goal, our everything.

Forever Love, O Sole Beloved. Maa

The Rich Journey of the Ghazal: From Longing to Spirituality

by Vikas Parashram Meshram countercurrents.org/2026/08/the-ri…

The ghazal has travelled a long historical and cultural journey, from its beginnings in Arabic poetry to its flowering in Persian, Urdu, Hindi and Marathi. What began largely as an expression of love and separation gradually acquired deeper dimensions through Sufi thought, spirituality, philosophy and reflections on social life. The article traces this evolution while exploring the distinctive structures, metres, imagery and traditions that shape the ghazal in different languages. It also examines the contributions of poets such as Rumi, Hafiz, Ghalib, Faiz, Dushyant Kumar and Suresh Bhat, and considers how music, cinema and digital platforms have carried the form to new generations of readers and listeners.

Vedic Dhyana: Yoga

We have discussed earlier that the first mention of the word yoga in the Rig Veda occurs in RV 1.5.3.

The root yuj- which means to join or yoke appears in RV 1.6.1 

यु॒ञ्जन्ति॑ ब्र॒ध्नम॑रु॒षं चर॑न्तं॒ परि॑ त॒स्थुष॑: । रोच॑न्ते रोच॒ना दि॒वि ॥

(“They yoke the broad and shining car, they who stand around it as it moves; the luminous lights (worlds) gleam in heaven” Translated by TV Kapali Sastry)

Here, the root yuj- may be taken as the physical action of tying horses in a ritualistic manner. Or as the joining of mental illuminations together, bringing them in synchrony and in one movement that is energetic like the horses of a chariot. In the latter sense, we are talking about a high level of jnana yoga and this is beautifully brought out by the pun on the horses of Indra called Hari

Vedic Varna Sangeeta and Yantra

When we chant the riks of the Veda we have available to us an amazing range of not only sounds but also the ability to turn those into tactile sensations. How? 

Every time you move from a regular Varna to the anusvaara or to an anunasika sound you are turning auditory sound into physical sensation. And each Varna is almost like a note on a musical instrument

You have ghosha and aghosha sounds depending on whether you vibrate the vocal cords. You have alpa prana and maha prana alphabets where you push less or more air through the wind pipe. You have ushman sounds that create sibilance and heat. 

The entire musical apparatus is used. In fact the body, prana and mind are turned into an exquisite yantra. 

And if you grow aware you can involve other parts of the body in the music with gestures or nyaasa. And by moving the notes as in an accordion with the diaphragm. Or even the rest of cells of the body by learning how to vibrate like the strings on a veena

The Universe plays its music in and through the body and Sanskrit varnas and mantras give it the entire range of sounds that are available. In the Universe 

https://x.com/i/status/2089091321617113598

Vedic Varna ka-varga क वर्ग 

We have looked earlier at how our energy moves when we move from enunciating अ and then say इ and finally उ 

Please try it when you are quietly by yourself. What do you notice? Each svara has its own sthana or location, bhaava or feeling, guna or quality and prabhaava or impact

When we say क, च, ट, त and प one after another we again see a movement upwards from our throat to pharynx to palate to tongue and finally to the lips. Again, similar to the movement of the svaras mentioned above

When we do only ka-varga then we see a movement from aghosha to ghosha, ie, our vocal cords start vibrating in the last three starting with ग. And with the anunasika at the end we feel the sound turn into spandana or vibration in the face, sinuses and head. The vyanjanas become denser until they drill into matter and become immanent as we move across the vargas. 

This may be tough to follow but I will return to it several times. That is why the anunasika sounds often represent the most material or physical manifestation of that varga. You may note this with words such as अणु, कण, घर्षण, मण, पण where the anunasika sounds at the end of each word brings you to the most material precise formulation or feeling. Hope this makes sense. Am perhaps trying to say too much. Hope I able to communicate the shift in energy here
