The Masks Thrive By Creating Chaos

IT IS SUICIDAL TO IGNORE THE TRUTH THAT DISEASED IDEOLOGIES SPREAD LIKE WILD-FIRE BY EMPOWERING AND MANDATING EVERY PRACTICING MEMBER TO CREATE UNBRIDLED CHAOS. How much effort does it take to kill a person point-blank? The Hindu leader Kamlesh Tiwari was killed by being stabbed 15 times in the upper part of the body withContinue reading “The Masks Thrive By Creating Chaos”

An Advice to The Self-Entitled Masks – Try “Civilization”.

THE “BELIEVERS” OF ALL TYPES CAN ROT IN THEIR PARADISE. WE DON’T CARE. Recently, a Pakistani twitter handle posted a video by one of the iconic Pakistani cricketers, wherein he is seen fulfilling one of his mandatory religious obligations. This cricketer was born a Christian, and was one of the rare examples of Pakistan’s charadeContinue reading “An Advice to The Self-Entitled Masks – Try “Civilization”.”

The Mask Either Wins or Wins

TO WIN ALL WARS, YOU MUST KNOW HOW TO WIN AS A “VICTOR”, AND YOU MUST KNOW HOW TO WIN AS A “VICTIM”. Every Friday afternoon, a large part of India comes to a halt for several hours. After their lunch, hordes of pious, religious people take a stroll to designated places, taking a fewContinue reading “The Mask Either Wins or Wins”

The Mask is A Broken Record

IT IS EASY TO PREDICT EVERY RATIONALE AND ARGUMENT IN PUBLIC NARRATIVES. THE ARGUMENTS IN THE PUBLIC NARRATIVES REFLECT WELL-THOUGHT-OUT-AGENDAS, NOT WELL-THOUGHT-OUT-INSIGHTFUL-TRUTHS. Recently, a RJ, noted mostly for two of her abilities – ongoingly and persistently defending her undefendable religion, and making an ass of herself in the process every few days – displayed whatContinue reading “The Mask is A Broken Record”

My Mask Commands me to Hate You. Don’t Hate Me For That.

SOME DEBATES ARE LOST THE MOMENT YOU SANCTIFY THEM BY PARTICIPATING IN THEM. SOME DEBATES DO NOT NEED ARGUMENTS AND FACT-FINDING, BUT OUTRIGHT REJECTION AND TOTAL INVALIDATION. Recently, a video of 2 Pakistani girls singing a divine song got viral. There are several videos of young kids singing such divine songs that get viral everyContinue reading “My Mask Commands me to Hate You. Don’t Hate Me For That.”

The Gold-Plated Mask is The Most Dangerous Mask

A NOBLE VALUE OR PHILOSOPHY THAT YOU FIND VERY INSPIRING IS PROBABLY JUST A BEAUTIFULLY PACKAGED PERSONAL VENOM. ESPECIALLY IF IT IS BEING PEDDLED OUT WITH VEHEMENCE. “Should a woman be identified for her own merits, or through her relationships?” Recently, a noted Indian journalist stoked a discussion around this sensitive and important question aboutContinue reading “The Gold-Plated Mask is The Most Dangerous Mask”

The Beauty of the Asymmetric Mask

IN THE WOKE WORLD, THE STATEMENT – “I RESPECT YOU EXACTLY AS MUCH AS YOU RESPECT ME” – IS A STATEMENT OF HATE. A few years ago, a video featuring the legendary Shehnai player, Bismillah Khan, went viral on Indian social media. His statement in the video – “I used to take a dip inContinue reading “The Beauty of the Asymmetric Mask”

The Mask of The “One-Liner” Warriors

DEMOLISHING TRADITIONS BY “ONE-LINER” WIT AND BUYING INTO PHILOSOPHIES CREATED BY “ONE-LINER” SARCASM ARE CREATING A SHALLOW, SUPERIFICAL WORLD, THAT EASILY CEDES SPACE TO THE EVIL. Several years ago, I was watching a TV debate on a channel known for its sensational content. This debate was about “reincarnation”, i.e. past lives.  The panel consisted ofContinue reading “The Mask of The “One-Liner” Warriors”

Puppets Need a Puppeteer And a String

MOST HUMAN BEINGS YEARN TO BE TAKEN CARE OF, DISCIPLINED, RULED AND DOMINATED. Exactly 20 years ago, a young movie-maker walked into the hearts and minds of a billion Indians with a panache that few movie-makers can dream of. His debut movie became an instant cult-classic and continued to remain so for many many years.Continue reading “Puppets Need a Puppeteer And a String”

Thou Shalt Not Question My Mask

“YOU ARE AN ANGEL. WHY DO YOU WANT TO COME DOWN TO MY LEVEL? BE THE GREAT, EXALTED SAINT THAT YOU ARE”. “Thank you so much for being kind and generous to all my nasty and angry behaviour.
