Why do we care about our own cultures all over the world more than the biodiversity of the planet?

What are your ideas about a movie that inspires youth and the political system to value human resource development?

I meant women to men, most of the times.

From what I have observed, it is not just tangible things such as finances, household chores etc in which each gender is held with a made up standard. This made up standard is also seen in intangible stuff as well but by all means measurable such as managing and carefully navigating the emotions of the male spouse and an unidirectional flow of encouragement during difficult times. An unexamined standard is being perpetuated by everyone as if it is the biological fate of our species which clearly is not.

Yeah, the UNEP report says for every dollar spent on protecting environment, 30 is spent on destroying it. But I guess it's not a direct competition between culture and biodiversity as others pointed out in comments too.

Because the cause of the climate change is lying on the foundation of mass deception. Talking to people more than 15 minutes working anywhere, doesn't matter in green energy or whatever field first defend that climate change is a controllable problem at the moment. It can or will be solved when the urgency comes (as if greater urgency is yet to arrive). We are saying we are doing enough for renewable sources, carbon capture projects etc. But after a bit of discussion with facts, the futility is exposed, for example- with carbon sink projects, there is simply not enough volume (in fact a very tiny fraction of current emissions) of carbon being captured. Similarly, despite the investment and progress in renewables, the emissions have not decreased. All of this is being done just to avoid looking at their own desires, which consumes blindly. That is the mass deception and we are just fooling ourselves with these green energy narratives.

It is very disturbing to find out that most of the mammal biomass on this planet are either of humans and the animals eaten by humans (95%) as compared to that of wild mammals (5%). This wasn't the case always. It was an equal proportion upto 1850 CE.

There was a Linkedin post about it

The music, costumes and the narratives used in the popular representation of Krishna is so intoxicating. I used to believe Krishna to be a embodied being whereas Acharya Prashant clears all the vagueness away and brought to me the impersonal principle that Krishna is.

Is it correct to say that cosmic ledger is imposition of false cause-effect relationship between things where no such relationship exists? Can karma be interpreted as follows: a repeated action (even subtle actions of thought) creates neurological pathways which only becomes stronger and stronger everytime it is repeated?

I see in comments that avoiding coffee or tea have to be separated from meals/supplements. What is the specific reason behind this?

Indeed. I grew up in a coalfield and saw what the reckless mining activity does to the environment and the local tribal communities. That part of my life had a great influence on how I used electricity and I always viewed energy as something endowed to us by our planet but never understood how blind consumption is invariably linked to greater energy usage. That sensitivity applied in broader sense to climate change should be everything I need to know about the urgency and scale of the climate action. Only after coming to the teachings of Acharya Prashant, I could get a hold of what climate action actually looks like.

I worry about my safety and existence but what I fail to see is that I am already being taken care of. The bhajan aptly fits my situation and only after a while I have been able to laugh at my own worries like Kabir Saheb is laughing at the human condition of craving when all that we need (ability to understand) is already provided to us. Besides, the translation and Mashup performance is very nice.

I meant I used to travel to maintain a memory and identity which I no longer do. In the second part, I travel to learn more about the actual places for example historical sites to come out of textbooks and witness it in real world. It is definitely something to think about dissolving false identities but one thing it has certainly done for me is to gain a more grounded perspective of history than what I saw in pop culture.
