The Arguments within

जलवायु परिवर्तन किस हद तक वास्तविक है और किस हद तक नहीं, यह आम जनता अपने आसपास के वातावरण में स्वयं महसूस कर रही होगी। पूर्व में, इसके प्रभाव को कम करने और रोकथाम के लिए विश्वभर के नेता प्रयास भी कर रहे थे। किंतु, पिछले एक दशक में स्थिति में बड़ा बदलाव आया है। डोनाल्ड ट्रंप द्वारा अमेरिका को 'पेरिस समझौते' (Paris Agreement) से अलग करने के निर्णय के साथ ही इसकी शुरुआत हो गई थी। दरअसल, कुछ देश जलवायु परिवर्तन को रोकने के आवश्यक लक्ष्यों को प्राप्त करने हेतु निश्छल भाव से त्याग करने के लिए तत्पर थे। वहीं दूसरी ओर, अन्य देशों के लिए यह अपनी हठधर्मिता और स्वार्थ के बल पर अनुचित लाभ उठाने का एक अवसर बन गया। ऐसी स्थिति में, यदि कोई देश अकेले जलवायु परिवर्तन की रोकथाम का प्रयास करता, तो वह राष्ट्रहित और आत्महित की बलि देकर स्वयं को नुकसान ही पहुँचा रहा होता। दगाबाज़ देशों की सूची में रूस, तुर्की और यहाँ तक कि भारत जैसे देश भी शामिल होते दिखे। याद करिये  प्रधानमंत्री मोदी का वह कथन, जिसमें उन्होंने कहा था, "जलवायु नहीं बदली है, बल्कि हमारी आदतें बदल गई हैं।" जलवायु परिवर्तन से ...

On tankers, during the SIRE 1.0 regime (in the days when I was sailing): There was a debate around who should bear the responsibility for providing safe access—the ship or the terminal? Earlier, the laws regulated that the responsibility was on the ships. But SIRE laid down that ships should carry a gangway of 10 mtrs, while it remained doubtful whether this was the maximum or the minimum prescribed! So, it once happened in New York, USA, that my ship had only a 10-mtr gangway, which couldn't reach the terminal (Bayonne Terminal, just close to the Statue of Liberty). As an alternative, the basket had to be used. But the baskets were forbidden for use—at least by the Indian administration; the reasons were then not known exactly. Our owners were Japanese. I complained to the owners through the Master about the use of the basket. The Japanese owners—the master shipbuilders they are, renowned all over for their shipbuilding yards of great quality—accepted my plea. I had submitted a ha...

#SahilWakode #IIT-Bombay The most complex kind of discrimination FOR EVALUATION of its occurence  IS When the oppressed person- the victim -has actually done a wrong. Because the perpetrator can NOW give differential treatment to two persons, selecting it on irrational basis such as the CASTE , both having commissioned a similar level of offence  And yet the perpetrator may most comfortably escape detection of having done a discrimination. The irrational basis could also be , The political inclination of the wrongdoers  For example, the goons who support a political group, - the one in power- may be let off by the police authorities  Whereas the goons who are supporters of the opposition, are "encounterd" or demonised in the public space.

10 August 2026  😂 Neeraj met Santa in London. Santa: “Oye Neeraj! Tu London mein? Kaise?” Neeraj: “Pehle aap batao Santa ji… aap yahan kaise?” Santa: “Banta UK se India aaya tha, mere ghar mehmaan banke. Maine full hospitality ki… lekin banda jaane ka naam hi nahi le raha tha.” “Toh maine usko chase karke seedha London tak chhod diya… bola, ab wapas mat aana!” 😂 Santa then asked, “Chal, ab tu bata… tu London mein kaise?” Neeraj smiled and said: *“Mere forefathers bhi India mein British ko bhaga rahe the… _Quit India Movement_ mein* *…aur* *bhagaate-bhagaate London tak aa gaye…* *…bas check karne ki Angrez wapas toh nahi laut aaye!”* 🤣🤣🤣

  Good morning.This is not the point of discussion at this stage. We need to find out who will bail him out of jail & who will stand his guarantee.  Is anyone in communication with his family ❓Is anyone in communication with his employers ❓ As a Mariner this case is very important & interesting to know what is the meaning of sanctioned vessel or Sanctioned Cargo. ❓ Is there any list of International Sanctioned vessels or how do we warn Seafarers to stay away from sanctioned vessels or Cargo or Countries ❓ The moot question is this: How does a Master Mariner know which ship and which cargo is "sanctioned", when such sanctions are imposed, by whom, and by which country, et al.? This question, still awaiting a definitive answer, should compel all stakeholders — the holders of Certificates of Competency (CoC), the issuing authorities, lawyers, and the courts — to return to the drawing board and rethink the fundamental relationship between a professional (the holder of a ...

India has a history, That the people have never been able to recognise the imminent danger IN RIGHT TIME, and have never succeeded in putting aside their mutual differences to make joint efforts to save the nation from that danger. Such bad has been our actions and it's affect on our MUTUAL TRUST in times of peace.  History has amply shown that  TRUST that was destroyed while doing petty politics to annihilate the opposition rivals when it was peace in the nation,  Could never be built when the enemy came to take us over by inflicting  a war. This has always been the price of Overstepping the lines of Morality and Ethics while indulging in realpolitik and going extra length to annihilate the opposition.

The worst thing that has happened to the field of international diplomacy in recent times is the arrival of right-wing groups into governance in many countries across the world. Right-wing leaders have contributed to making international diplomacy more casual and inconsistent. It has become increasingly normal for leaders to say, conduct, and present one position on international platforms, while expressing something entirely different to their domestic audiences on the same issue. In short, they have normalized dishonesty in international diplomacy. Right-wing groups across the world are often fringe elements within their respective societies. Their existence and survival have largely depended on portraying themselves as being on the winning or dominant side at all times. To achieve this, they have frequently resorted to unethical practices such as spreading falsehoods and staging large-scale narratives to influence public perception. This has led to a significant portion of the p...

घृणा की भावना अतार्किक और अंधी होती है। घृणा मस्तिष्क के बौद्ध को क्षय कर के उत्पत्ति होती है।  घृणा न्याय और समानता की बौद्धिक कौशल का नाश करके प्रकट होती है।  घृणा आईना देखना बिल्कुल भी पसंद नहीं करती है।  घृणा प्रवेश करती है कुछ हल्के फुल्के , लुभावने हास्य-परिहास में लिपट कर, जब व्यक्ति बेसुध हो, सजग-सचेत न हो घृणा की प्रवेश करने के फ़िराक के प्रति।  घृणा कभी तोकोई joke बन कर, कभी कुछ अर्धसत्य तथ्य , ज्ञान जानकारी बन कर, या दोस्तों की मधुर बतकही बन कर प्रवेश का लेती है। घृणा किसी के भी प्रति उत्पन्न हो सकती है।  घृणा की औषधि होती है दया, न्याय, समानता, संपूर्ण ज्ञान और आत्मसाक्षात्कार।

Nine quotes about Time 

ये अनुशासन क्या चीज़ है ? भारतीय समाज और संस्कृति में अनुशासन के क्या वास्तविक मायने होते हैं ? -- अंग्रेज़ों ने जब भारत में अपनी फ़ौज़ें भारत वासियों को ही भर्ती करके बनाना शुरू किया था , तब उन्होंने भारतीयों को सुधार करके एक दूसरे के संग तालमेल में कार्य सकने के क़ाबिल बनाने के लिए जो कुछ कार्यवाहियां करते थे, उसे अंग्रेज़ लोग "अनुशासन" करके पुकारते थे ! अनुशासन कार्यवाहियां क्या और कैसे होती थी ? -- सज़ा या दंड देना , अलग थलग कर देना , सभी के सामने ज़लील करना , विशेष कार्यों से दूर करके महत्त्व कम करना, "स्व-सम्मान" निम्न होने की अनुभूति देना । self respect या आत्मसम्मान को चोटिल करने के लिए जो आवशयक विधि थी वह ये थी कि-  1) पहले तो कुछ कार्य ऐसे कराया जाए जो की कुछ विशेष या महत्त्व वाले होने का आभास जागृत करें।   2) अब, दूसरे कदम में, उस महत्वपूर्ण से दिखने अथवा आभास देने वाले कार्य से उन "दुष्ट" लोगों को अलग थलग कर के निकाल दो जिन्हे की "जलील" करने का target रखना हो।  इससे वह target  व्यक्ति खुद की आत्म ग्लानि को महसूस करने लगेगा जब वह देखेगा कि उ...

Formula on how to Mother Fu#k a nation : 1) Don't have to change any law or the Constitution 2) Simply position Cho#tiya persons in top chairs, IAS, IPS, IFS, etc, someone who is incapable and incompetent to be able to identify the real gold from the glittering pieces 3) Such persons will do the rest. all while singing the National Song/Anthem   the M@* Govt is working hard to wash away all the signs of colonial thinking that was cultured within the Indian society by the British -- the colonial, outdated laws, the names of cities, the superiority of English speaking,  EXCEPT the legacy of the Laat Sahabi Bureaucracy ! --
