Donald Trump Is Not Against India: Reframing Perceptions Beyond Emotion

 The Emotional Lens That Clouds Geopolitics Donald Trump & India: The Truth Behind Indo-US Relations | Pradeep Mahaur Magazine In India, emotionalism often overrides realism. When it comes to geopolitics, this becomes especially true, our perception of world leaders, especially U.S. presidents, is frequently shaped not by ground strategy but by hope, hurt, and headlines. Many Indians believe Donald Trump is "anti-India." But is this belief rooted in fact or just frustration? The truth is far more nuanced and far more important to understand. Let’s decode the perception, peel back the layers of strategic misreading, and explore why Donald Trump is not against India , even if his policies might sometimes appear uncomfortable. The “America First” Doctrine: Not “India Last” Donald Trump is, first and foremost, the President of the United States , not a global guardian. His foreign policies are crafted to benefit American interests, not n...

This article will also help you understand how Karma works, not just as a concept, but as a living force that silently weaves your past, present, and future together in ways you may have never imagined.

Why I Choose Rebirth Over Moksha (Liberation): A Spiritual Perspective

  The Liberation (Moksha) Everyone Wants - But I Don’t When we talk about Hindu philosophy, one word rises like the Himalayas above all spiritual conversations, that is Moksha . Ask any seeker, monk, yogi, or even a casual temple-goer: “What’s the ultimate goal of life?” and more often than not, you’ll hear the answer: Moksha, or liberation . But here’s where I differ. Despite being deeply spiritual and having experienced states that many yogis strive for their entire lives, I stand here and say, I don’t want Moksha. Not because I doubt it. Not because I don’t understand it. But because I do. And what I understand fills me with awe, not desire. Let’s take this journey together, to explore what Moksha truly is , why billions chase it, and why someone who has tasted both asceticism and royalty chooses to remain in this beautiful illusion called life. Kumbh Mela: The Unspoken Craving for Liberation Let me take you back to a spectacle you may have seen or hea...

Buddhism vs Hinduism: A Comparative Study of Differences, Similarities & Shared Vedic Teachings

Buddhism vs Hinduism: In-Depth Comparative Study of Atman, Anatta, Karma, Moksha & Nirvana Hinduism is often described as Sanātana Dharma —the “eternal way of life.” Buddhism arose from the same cultural soil but charted its own disciplined path to awakening.  Studying Buddhism vs Hinduism is therefore less a clash between rivals and more a dialogue between two complementary quests for freedom. By seeing where they diverge and where they overlap, modern seekers can extract practical wisdom from both traditions without losing intellectual honesty or spiritual depth. Buddha Rejected Vedic Rituals Some readers assume the Buddha opposed the Vedas outright. A better analogy is a medical student learning to use an MRI: she needs to understand the machine well enough to diagnose, not to redesign microchips. Likewise, the Buddha focused on one proven method, mindful investigation of suffering, rather than the entire spectrum of Vedic techniques. When students asked...

Can You Become Enlightened?

If you are reading this, it signifies a deep yearning for spiritual awakening. However, before setting out on this profound journey, it is essential to grasp the true meaning of enlightenment. While the terms "enlightenment" or "awakening" are often used in English, their essence transcends linguistic limitations. Enlightenment is not merely an intellectual realization; it is a transformative experience—a state of being where one gains access to higher wisdom. It is a shift in awareness that surpasses ordinary perception, leading to a profound comprehension of existence, the self, and the ultimate truth of the cosmos. This brings us to an essential question: what exactly is divine wisdom? Simply put, it is a direct connection to the universal consciousness, an infinite reservoir where all knowledge—past, present, and future—coexists. We often turn to books, teachers, and external sources in pursuit of wisdom, assuming it must be acquired from outside. However, in ...

Why Do Hindus Perform Idol Worship?

Why Hindus Worship Idols – Meaning, Science & Vedic Symbolism Explained Article By Pradeep Mahaur Understanding the Essence: Symbolism, Science, and Spirituality in Hindu Idol Worship In today’s world of increasing scientific skepticism, idol worship is often viewed as irrational or outdated. Many critics label it as blind faith, arguing that praying to stone, wood, or metal statues cannot yield any tangible benefit. Such dismissals, however, arise from a superficial understanding of a deeply symbolic and spiritually transformative practice. For Hindus, idol worship is not just about the object itself but about what it represents, how it engages the mind and soul, and how it connects the individual with the cosmos. Misconceptions and Historical Assaults on Idol Worship Throughout history, particularly during the Muslim invasions in India, idol worship was not just misunderstood; it was violently targeted. Temples were systematically lo...

Revealed: The Secret Trick to Deep Meditation

  When I mention a "shortcut to meditation," many people immediately think there are no shortcuts in life and believe that meditation is an art cultivated over many years of dedicated practice. While I respect and understand this perspective, it's important to recognize that there are efficient and effective methods to practice meditation that have been known and utilized by many for a long time. These methods may not be widely recognized but have proven to be beneficial for those who practice them. The first time I encountered this method of meditation, I decided to give it a try. By that point, I had experimented with and practiced numerous other meditation techniques, but they were all very slow and required a great deal of patience. This particular method, however, worked exceptionally well for me. I had always been told that every individual is unique and that what works for one person might not work for another. As a result, I believed this method was uniquely suite...

The Ceasefire Illusion: Why Islamic Nations Abandoned Iran and the Reality of Iran’s Defence Collapse

Why Islamic Nations Didn't Support Iran in the Israel War: Sectarian Faultlines & Geopolitics What forced Iran to halt its war suddenly - was it victory, or a hidden collapse no one saw coming? The truth will surprise you. On a historic yet chaotic night, the world held its breath as Iran’s state-run broadcaster, IRINN , triumphantly declared that a ceasefire had been “ imposed on Israel ” following a supposed successful Iranian strike on a U.S. base in Qatar . As reported by the BBC , the narrative from Tehran implied victory. However, beneath this bravado was a sobering truth: Iran was collapsing from within , militarily exhausted and diplomatically isolated, especially by the very nations it counted as ideological allies, the Islamic world. This war, which many have already termed a short-lived yet symbolically intense conflict between Iran and the Israel-U.S. alliance , has revealed not just the fault lines in Middle Eastern geopolitics but also the st...

Decoding Rakshasas, Danavas, Daityas, and Asuras: Ancient Races or Misunderstood Legends?

Decoding Rakshasas, Danavas, Daityas & Asuras: Vedic Origins, Reptilian Traits & Genetic Legacy In the vast universe of Hindu scriptures, beings such as Rakshasas, Danavas, Daityas, and Asuras are often misunderstood. These terms are frequently used interchangeably, leading to confusion in identifying their true nature. Ravana, for instance, is primarily referred to as a Rakshasa in Valmiki Ramayana but is also called a Daitya, Danava, and Asura in various modern texts. This inconsistency raises questions: Who exactly are these beings? Are they demonic as often portrayed, or were they ancient, powerful races lost in time? This article seeks to decode these classifications using references from Vedic literature, Itihasas, and Puranas, while drawing parallels to modern science and archaeology to propose that these beings may have roots in ancient genetic experimentation and inter-dimensional evolution.   1. Who Are the Asuras? Contrary to common...

Vedic Philosophy of Ghosts & Pancha Kosha: Spirits, Karma, Afterlife Explored In our modern rational world, the term “ghost” often evokes fear, disbelief, or sensationalism.

The Hidden Path of Mantra Chanting – No One Told You About

Guru-Shishya Tradition & Mantra Chanting in Hinduism Guru-Shishya Tradition & Mantra Chanting in Hinduism Some truths are so sacred that they can only pass from the heart of a Guru to the soul of a Shishya and never be written in any book. You may have read countless articles on how to chant mantras, following the instructions written in our ancient scriptures. They are correct, but they are not complete. In Hindu tradition, there are truths that are never written down. They are passed quietly from a Guru to a Shishya, not just as words, but as living energy. This is not an ordinary teacher, student relationship. It is a sacred meeting of two souls. The Guru (Spiritual Master) is the one who walks ahead on the dark, uncertain path of life, holding a light so that the Shishya can see. The Shishya (Student), in turn, offers complete trust, respect, and surrender, allowing that light to enter his own heart. This bond is so divine that...
