[An introspection of the collapse of the erstwhile U.S.S.R suggests that the brilliant Marxist analysis of the social, economic and political conflict between classes was not matched by an equally brilliant analysis of the psychological and spiritual conflict between the individual and the collectivity. Indeed, disciplines like sociology, anthropology, economics and political science deal with the dynamics of the collectivity. In the process, the individual is relegated to a general common denominator minus its uniqueness. In contrast, the discipline of psychology restores uniqueness as the outstanding attribute of the human being. Spirituality goes a step further... (Thank God this happened so that sociology and anthropology could emerge as distinct disciplines robbing psychology of its monopoly on human behaviour!).

Mobility is destiny

The map of humanity isn’t settled -- not now, not ever.
On October 13th, 
@paragkhanna
 speaks at Long Now about why mobility is destiny.  https://t.co/4a2KUvmmWy https://t.co/uCzV0gUAsl

In the 60,000 years since people began spreading across the continents, a recurring feature of human civilization has been mobility—the ever-constant search for resources, stability and opportunity.

Driven by global events from conflicts, famine, repression and changing climates - to opportunities for trade, social advancement and freedom of thought - humans have relocated around the globe for millennia.

But what happens when billions of people are on the move? As climate change tips toward full-blown crisis, economies collapse, governments destabilize, and technology disrupts, we’re entering a new age of mass migrations.

Futurist 
@paragkhanna
 uncovers the deep trends that are shaping the most likely scenarios for our future and asks what map of human geography will emerge.

My fascination with Balakrushna Das's compositions in films like Sri Lokanath, Lakshmi, Manikajodi, Nuabou, Jiban Sathi, and Sadhana etc. forms the basic template. I'm not aware of technical aspects but I just love them. Why should I compromise or sacrifice that before "system?"

"Why should I explain to others what I know so intimately," asks Guru Ramahari Das in his Odishi Pathashala series. His effort at systematisation is commendable and with his level of technical expertise he may be right but along with outsiders I too feel threatened. So I protest.
