My visit to the Surya Mandir at Mōḍhērā makes me wonder, at first, at the awe of what has been stripped away by time, weather, and invaders, and later, at thousands of monuments which are left at the mercy of the godless constitutional state. Around the time came the controversy over Surya Namaskar with the usual weaselish argument that Yoga is not Hindu. What exactly does that argument achieve? If that were not enough, there is the other argument that Yoga is just a system of bodily exercises, a dumbing down of an ancient system of healthy living that also introduces weird English names for asanas. Down south is the celebration of Pongal, the harvest festival that has nothing to do with the God of Sun but everything to do with the Son of God.

I then talk about Godwin's law in the context of some tweet by a typical uncreative label-maker mind of a left-liberal, and then, pass on to my comments on why Netflix is frustrated with their lack of success in India.
