Nobody can take one to the heavens, so purely, so instantly, as Van: put him onstage with music around him, and the transport is instantaneous. No need of long-winded talk of the Perennial Philosophy, just listen to the Man: youtube.com/watch?v=6IuNJu…

Compliments to the Druk Gyalpo's Institute, the Royal Academy, Education Research Centre and Teacher Development Centre on their work, achievements and contributions to the vision of His Majesty the King of Bhutan. Ambassador and spouse interacted with the faculty, scholars and students today, which was very enriching and valuable. We will be glad to work together to advance the Institute's goals and strengthen special friendship between India and Bhutan. @MEAIndia @IndianDiplomacy @IndiainBhutanCG

Learning is like peeling an onion— each layer reveals another layer, and occasionally, it makes you cry.

Over the centuries humans have altered technologies more than technologies have altered humans. So maybe, in a time of constant change, we should concentrate on what doesn’t change, the larger backdrop and field for all our doings.

Pashmina Conclave at Leh brought together the Changpa goat herders, local weavers and designers and some iconic names from the pashmina/ fashion world- @DhirSuket , Rajesh pratap, Kulbhushan Ahuja, Sameer Mehra. A baby step to build brand Ladakh and a Ladakh Pashmina Board.

NASA Mars

By studying samples analyzed by the Curiosity rover, scientists have taken another step toward understanding whether life could have ever existed on Mars. A new study suggests that non-biological sources cannot fully account for the abundance of organic compounds found in a sample collected by the rover. Dig into the details: go.nasa.gov/46AGzG5

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries: “It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones. “There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion. “If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the ‘medicine closet’ and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That’s why you should always have a nutrition choice! “Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity.”

If you feel bad about not understanding when intellectuals talk, here’s a secret. A lot of the talk is like the twitter of birds. Outsiders will get caught if they try to join in, but that doesn’t mean the insiders understand what the insiders are saying.

This article marks the beginning of a new strand within The Invisible Revolution – one that looks not only at the technologies reshaping our world, but also the inner evolution required from each of us. open.substack.com/pub/arunkapur1…
