The Trimurti - Shiva ( शिव ), Vishnu ( विष्णु ), and Brahma ( ब्रह्मा ) Gold | Saturday – April 25, 2026 G old and its many sides. Well, actually gold has only one side, but more on that later... Why then should I bring up gold? Well, there are many reasons why I should bring up gold and quite frankly they are too many to enumerate here, but first of all I should mention that gold did not always use to be the most highly valued metal, here valued as in its essential characteristics, and this was particularity the case in the East, but even in the West it took a long time before gold became the "standard". Since most people only have a very materialistic and capitalistic understanding of gold and its value it can be quite hard to define the essential and sacred value of gold, but before I can do that I must emphasize that what is being dealt with hear is actually a much larger question about metallurgy and, again, the fact is that the importance of gold is a fairly recent dev...

Durga ( दुर्गा ) Slaying the Buffalo Demon, Raktabij ( रक्तबीज ) Is the Future the Enemy? Friday – April 24, 2026 F uture or futures ? No, there is no such thing, and to some extent it would be appropriate to treat the "future" as your enemy, but before I can explain why I encourage you to read my post about the subject of " Enemies "; that post deals with enemies in a less abstract manner.     Yes, to put it thusly: the future is your enemy because you have no hope in the future, unless of course you are thinking about the remote future, read " Disintegration ", but for the most part, do you believe, really, that your life will somehow improve during the course of this century, during the course of this cycle?

But allow me to put this proposition in a more blunt manner: in the future you are dead , long dead, an...

A rare example of a Shakta Ardhanarishvara ( अर्धनारीश्वर ) Hindu ( ॐ ) depiction Beauty Standards | Thursday – April 23, 2026 H ahahahahaha! Beauty standards ... HA HA HA HA HA! What a joke and what a big fat lie, and yes I used the word fat for a reason. There are no beauty standards, at least not in the year of our lord 2026. But since I brought up fat people , or the word fat to be precise, I suppose that it should be just as well for me to point out that the vast majority of people are fat, and if you consider this a beauty standard, then you have very low standards, and actually those standards do not qualify, read more about that here .     Recently I wrote about anorexia again, which I must say is a funny subject to be right about, and I have been thinking more about fat people and skinny people, and how they relate to the essential side and substantive side of life, and yes it is pretty obvious that fat people are quite substantive. I can go on, but I am not a hater,...
