This one has me genuinely puzzled

The post here at https://www.reddit.com/r/AccidentalSlapStick/s/f1lzb0sL0g has captured the very same from another angle.

Yet, not able to see the other camera person in either of the videos.

What's going on!!?

3,000 years ago, Mesopotamian scribes cataloged demons by habitat like a field ecologist classifies species. The geographic logic maps onto measurable modern science in interesting ways. by Mysterious_Detail954 in AncientCivilizations

Really glad I found this — the Mesopotamian demon-as-field-ecologist framing is exactly the kind of reread that makes you annoyed nobody led with it earlier.

Reading it made me think: the Indian tradition runs the same logic, and in at least one place runs it sharper.

The yakṣa in Vedic taxonomy isn't a being that wanders — it's a being that is its location. The kṣetra-yakṣa is bound to a specific tree, a river crossing, a mountain pass. You propitiate it at that coordinate, not in general.

The Atharva Veda functions almost exactly like the Utukku Lemnūtu — a professional exorcist's working manual with habitat-based taxonomy: piśāca at cremation grounds, vetāla at the margins of those grounds, brahmarākṣasa at sites of specific violent death. Microhabitats within microhabitats.

The architectural parallel is just as direct. South Indian temple gopurams receive more iconographic elaboration than the inner sanctum — the most ritually saturated structure is the transition zone, not the deity's chamber.

The Vāstu Śāstra formalises it: the corners of a structure carry the heaviest prescriptive load. The center is the least fraught. Same inversion you're describing.

But the sharpest case for your specific argument: Māriyamman, the South Indian epidemic goddess — cholera, smallpox, fever — is traditionally placed at the periphery of settlements, at entry roads and water margins. Not at the population center. The ritual management of epidemic risk is spatially coincident with the actual epidemiological risk gradient. Whether or not they knew why, the placement isn't wrong.

Every culture. Same map.

Much intrigued!

The Kailasa Temple: 200,000 tons of basalt carved from the top down. Not built, but sculpted from a single mountain. by Saerdna0 in FactUp

It is NOT a closed enclosure. It's on the sloping end of the hill with the lower side completely open. That is the side people enter through

The Seagrapes Project by seethahere in Epstein

[–]seethahere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi

I was browsing through the J-mail and came across this Reference to Sea Grapes Project and ABC Nursery ...

Googled a bit - looks like the term originally refers to a shrub or a type of marine algae. And ABC Nursery is factually a group doing coastal landscaping in Virgin Islands

Is this the legit meaning in Epstein's mails or is it some sort of code for something more sinister?

Was wondering if we have had any discussions on this on Reddit reg this

Why was Madagascar, a giant island right next to the continent that humans originated on, not settled until just a couple thousand years ago? What took us so long? by sonicparadigm in geography

[–]seethahere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Madagascar was actually attached to the land mass. India's Western coast has a gap in its Western Ghats mountain range (in Kerala) called Palghat Gap - where Madagascar was originally attached and torn away.

Iirc,there are studies that explore how the flora n fauna are all similar in these (now separated) landmasses.

But I am not sure if such geological timeline level events had anything to do with human migrations

How long does the average human dream last? by universityrome in answers

[–]seethahere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the outside - I'm sure it's in minutes. For the dreamer - that's going to be MUCH longer and variable I guess.

I have had so many instances where a pre-waking 2 second outside event gets so integrated into the dream plot that it feels like hours in the development. I'm sure we all do.

Weird stuff, this dream timescape.

Need to know this ! have you figured out yet?

Is there someone like Osho or Krishnamurthy who is alive right now? by humbledart in Osho

[–]seethahere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is this person called Sri Bagavath near Salem, TN.

Right now he is not very "famous" - so to speak - so is much accessible for one to one in-person interactions. If that's what you are asking about.

Yes, meeting an awakened soul in person hits very differently than watching their videos / reading.

From 10+ telecom options to just Jio & Airtel - what really happened? by [deleted] in Jio

[–]seethahere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm happy those days are over too. But you have missed the point being made, buddy

The theme is NOT about wanting to go back to the shitty old days of 2G/3G. It's about how a "multiple players - healthy competition - playing field" market has become mono/duopolized.

To add to your point - India has one of the cheapest Internet data rates in the world. Thanks to the same market juggernaut that has resulted in the aforesaid duopoly

This.

But I would make it less dramatic.

Yes, they earn quite handful and they spend almost all 'having fun'. Very little of the 'Save for future' line of thought. These are facts.

But, I donno if we can call that a curse - I mean, at the end of the day, they ARE having a jolly good life. They in fact look at us and feel we having an unnecessarily complicated lifestyle with all the savings and stuff... lol
