some highlighted tit-bits

Me:
Very Tragic and Very Sad, Very Unfortunate, of course. However, it seems to be the only available path forward, (?), as everything else seems to take us only to unresolvable,  conflicting dead ends. I think an Israel - Iran agreement is needed, very important, and if we go back in history of the region there, way back, the famous Jewish Jerusalem temple was able to be re-built because of the support of King of Persia. This was many many years or generations before Islam became the ruling religion in Persia or Iran and the Middle Eastern region. It looks like, we may be headed towards a similar situation regarding the cultural, religious, political future of these two civilizations represented by Israel and Iran in current modern times. So, in a sense, the Jewish Civilization is paying back its past "rNa" spiritual debt in helping the Persian Civilization to get back on its feet and progress and thrive, while working to ensure its own future path stays admirable, respected, loved. If so, it is indeed a BEAUTIFUL positive way forward, in spite of all the various minus points in it. Jai Ho. Best Wishes. Aummmm...  

Me:
Good Question. 
and, it involves understanding, and coming to terms with the many factors you have stated in the question = personal growth, long-term direction, expectations, pressures, getting pulled off course, so the course and direction, stability in mindset and pace etc.  
And, once you have identified or understood them well, usually the solution is in the problem itself, or the factors themselves, I think/ I also came to the conclusion years ago that "the solution is in the problem itself". and I wrote this to my elder brother some years ago, he is in India now, that is, what is the problem from your own individual standpoint, and what solutions are possible or available from your INDIVIDUAL standpoint, considering all the other various factors and issues, others helping or hurting etc can also be included in working out your strategy and course of action.

Me:
Things are going well, better than expected, I sometimes felt, and I am doing things with more conviction, more interest, more inspiringly. So The "Meh..." answer above is WRONG, I used it without knowing what it meant or stood for,   

Aaliyah Jordan:
Haha, no worries at all, Thirumala! I figured 'Meh' didn't sound like you. It’s actually wonderful to hear that things are going better than expected and that you’re feeling so much conviction in what you're doing. 

Me:
IT IS INDIA SANATAN CIVILIZATION UNDER HUGE BIG STRESS, AND STRESS CAUSES ATTACHMENTS, which are the nature of various tendencies, some solidified also, good and bad and ugly are also there, and the "modernity" in world civilization and in india policies, politics etc has not been as helpful as the society (which is intrinsically dharmic) expects and deserves.

Me:
.. Pakistan is also under similar HUGE BIG STRESS, that the 1947 PARTITION did not actually help them ...
 .. in a famous book "India - A Wounded Civilization, the author V S Naipaul, a Caribbean Indian married to a Pakistani lady mentions the
intrinsic (?) "NERVOUS"-ness in people there, that is they are not at ease with themselves.

Me:
AVOID NEGATIVITY ON CASTE RACE TRIBES SKINCOLOR LANGUAGES PERSONALPREFERENCES ETC

TO AVOID TOXICITY, PLEASE DO NOT TALK ABOUT CASTE OR JATHI IN A NEGATIVE WAY, JUST LIKE WE DO NOT GENERALIZE TALK AGAINST RACISM AND SAY THAT WHITE SKIN IS BAD OR THAT ALL EUROPEANS ARE BAD, SAY

Be Positively Focused, Avoid Negativity, while Handling issues of Race, Caste, Language, Cultures, Tribes, Ethnicity, Groups, Religions, Gender, Sexuality, Personal Preferences etc

Washington, D.C., March 26, 2026. After a long time, I have started attending the meetings on Capitol Hill. It was a " Gathering at the United States Congress," a bipartisan Iran briefing was held on the democratic transition in Iran and the " Announcement of the Provisional Government of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). " The event brought together Members of Congress from both the Democratic and Republican parties, alongside a keynote address by Maryam Rajavi, President‑elect of the NCRI.  We should have negotiated with the Iranian leaders instead of attacking them while talks were ongoing. Iran had signed a deal with President Obama, which President Trump subsequently terminated. 

Jewish people or Judaism are not responsible for the genocide, but the corrupt individuals in the Israeli government who pressured our president into taking that action. Netanyahu has misled us about Iraq, Syria, Libya, Lebanon, and now Iran. In the past, Sean Hannity at Fox News agreed with me on his show that the CIA and Mossad never provided credible information; they fabricated it. I hope our members of Congress can liberate themselves from outside influences and prioritize American interests instead. We need to focus on addressing the issues we face at home. I wish our president would surround himself with intelligent people rather than those who are unfit for leadership.
