Ethereal Insights Logotype 🙏 जब जागो तब सवेरा 🙏 Recovery, Part 1 | Monday – October 26, 2026 N ow that I am in recovery from my surgery I must tell you now that I am somewhat affected by medications that will act to alter my perceptions of the world, and currently it is somewhat difficult for me to keep up with the world, and so bear with me. I expect to be able to recover to 80% of my strength within about two days, at which time I plan on starting up with my usual writing schedule. Again, in the meantime do bear with me and do understand that I may have some difficulties here in the coming days. Of course, I am in some pain, but the medications work to remove most of the pain, which is the point of the medication. Again, my perceptions may sometimes be altered by the medication which is why I may end up rambling more than usual in these posts, but I will do my best to not come across as too much under the influence, read " Are Imagination Enhancers Good? ". Now, it is cer...

Ethereal Insights Logotype 🙏 जब जागो तब सवेरा 🙏 Surgery, Part 4 | Sunday – October 25, 2026 I am now finished with my surgery and it went well. However, I am going to have to spend a couple of days recovering, and so I suppose that I underestimated myself here a little bit. I thought that I was going to be able to recover quite immediately, but as it looks right now it will take upwards of four weeks. Well, this is fine if you ask me and I think that I will be able to recover my writing earlier than this. At this point I believe that I will probably take till about Wednesday the 28th before I am fully back writing my blog posts, which is why I intend to continue to write about my recovery process in the coming days. I have spoken to my surgeons and all sorts of other medical professionals and I do not need to worry about anything. Of course, the most interesting part of this experience was the fact that being put to sleep by anesthesia is much like how I imagine that it would be lik...

Ethereal Insights Logotype 🙏 जब जागो तब सवेरा 🙏 Surgery, Part 3 | Saturday – October 24, 2026 T hey say that time can heal any wounds... Well, first of all let us put aside any consideration of who this "they" are, but I suppose that this is a common saying or one of those idioms. I must say that I profoundly disagree with at least the premise and the spirit of this statement, because why would we want to or seek to forget, read " The End of History "? Is it really a good idea to seek to erase our wounds? I do not think so, but I do think this fixation of cleaning or cleaning ourselves from our past is quite bad and erroneous, really a huge mistake, for we do still carry some part of our past whether we prefer to or not, and so the idea that we may just reduce our past, our memories, to preference , seems to me rather outrageous and even deceitful, and actually another contradiction, a totalitarian contradiction . Consider again why we would like to erase our past...

Ethereal Insights Logotype 🙏 जब जागो तब सवेरा 🙏 Surgery, Part 2 | Friday – October 23, 2026 T oday I am heading into the hospital in order so that I can undergo surgery to remove my diseased gallbladder . Now, I do need to clarify again that this is a completely safe and routine procedure and that I will be fine in the end, but again because of this I have been unable to keep up with the schedule on this blog , but that is okay, since I am in charge of this blog after all. The procedure (surgery) that I am undergoing is as I have stated elsewhere completely routine and one of the most common procedures, and I am expected to fully recover and to also be able to live in better health afterwards. The surgery that I am going to undergo is referred to as cholecystectomy, which means to remove the gallbladder. Now, at the moment I do not suffer from any kind of inflammation, which is good, but I have been suffering from something called gallstone attacks or bilious attacks, which has caus...
