AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Upon occasion, in human affairs, it becomes necessary to remind the functionaries that they are not proprietors. This observation has reference to that Euro-American mélange of colossal dummies who self-identify as the foreign policy establishment (FPE) and intelligence community (IC). Has anyone seen or heard from Abu Baker Al-Baghdadi — aka Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Stand tall, keep your roots in the ground. Send them deep, into the waters and the earth. Clean the air, and provide/protect homes for other creatures. Last weekend, I stood with the president of a hobby club to which I belong, listening, like him, to a teenaged member brimming with astonishment stories connected…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Not without reason. A woman needs a man to protect and inspire her. A child needs a mother and father to protect and rear him or her. A man who draws attention to himself is masochistic if not suicidal and radically endangers the vitality, and therefore, viability of his family, in both…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Spengler: We Need Our Mojo Back Vis-à-Vis China Spengler (David P. Goldman, Banker) is cogent as always. He vacillates between hand-wringing and triumphalism, through the years. This essay runs in the former type. Lots of China experience. Competent theologian. Strategic interests and wisdoms. Appreciates Augustine, as I Maimonides. Eight things stand out…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Executive Order on Modernizing Sanctions to Combat Terrorism Good, the EO I mean. State and Treasury ordered to work to the same end as DOD and just as assiduously. Exceedingly late but happily received news. That rationality can do wonders. Diplomacy, Finance, and War-Fighting are the three assets of statecraft. (I know,…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Looking For Trouble The Theologian And The Soldier: Two Fighters For One Freedom Is freedom something you have to take, something you have to make, something you have to earn, something you have to ask for, something someone has to give you, something you have already, something you are already? Which is…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Prologue War is an essential human activity. The great Greek Philosopher Heraclitus observes that war is the father of all things. His meaning is, everything that comes into existence does so through struggle, through conflict of one sort or another. So, as a Soldier, you are the very root of creation. What…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA Everything will be wonderful after I have everybody’s money. Socialism is envy with a mouth and marketing. Joshua Philipp: On Marxism in America, the Communist China Threat, Unconventional Warfare and Hong Kong Dated 03 August 2019, Superb Hour-Long Video Interview Cults obey a definable pattern: a nub of truth and a monster…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA A Soldier wants freedom from oppression, tyranny. A Theologian wants freedom from the world, attachment. Freedom from tyranny is the rind. Freedom from attachment is the fruit within. Both provide personal, communal, national, and civilizational nourishment. God is the sweetness of the juice of the fruit that is freedom. We begin with…
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON by Rudyard Kipling It was not part of their blood, It came to them very late, With long arrears to make good, When the Saxon began to hate. They were not easily moved, They were icy — willing to wait Till every count should be proved,…
Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000 RAMANAM In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT It’s like we are governed by Bolsheviks bent on destroying everything decent in order to wield their control over what’s left. [Democrats] are a gigantic hate group, in other words, and are far larger…
Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000 RAMANAM In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT The crisis of the times is the desperation to find something which persists through space and time, something fixed and immutable and therefore reliable, a place or thing or person or idea or…

Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUB3zLtPcgI Counselor Paul Mirengoff today commits signature hand-wringing as a post titled Trump’s Dilemma. As is often the case, creative response occurred: David R. Graham commented This reasoning ricochets about endlessly under the…
Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000 RAMANAM In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT There is at least one large-scale philosophical overview of this happening [Moslems’ happiness with Ilhan Omar’s dissembling, deceit, conceit]. Peoples who favor facing simple as well as complex facts are happier and more…
Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000 RAMANAM In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT On 06 November 2014 I posted under title The Triple Thread Of Life. This post comprises improvisation upon a theme created as a thesis by a student of my acquaintance. Hegel said that…
Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000 RAMANAM In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Countrymen, ORBIS NON SUFFICIT SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT Thanks, looks quite good. A bit of fuzzy jargon here and there but overall clear and meaningful. The use of the words compete and adversary to describe basic posture towards an enemy or potential enemy implies…
