It took me 4 months to finish reading Bhagawad Gita but you can learn all of it in 2 mins.

Here are the chapter-wise takeaways:

 Chapter 1: Negative mindset is the problem.

Arjuna was overpowered by his attachment to his kith and kin. The problem was his wrong thinking and he ended up making false judgements.
Chapter 2: Right knowledge is the solution to most of our problems

Arjuna surrenders to Krishna after he realised that all of his problems were due to ignorance and that the right knowledge can solve all of his problems.
Chapter 3: Selflessness is the only key to progress

Karmayoga is a selfless service. A karma yogi is someone who is not concerned about the result and is free from the attachments of the world.
Chapter 4: Every act can be made an act of prayer

A person who follows a lord and his teachings become liberated.
Chapter 5: Renounce ego and stay in bliss

A true karmayogi dedicates all his actions to the lord without thinking about the result. This is how one develops self-control, renounces ego and stays in bliss.
Chapter 6: Connect to the higher consciousness

Meditation is the key to transforming the extrovert mind into a contemplative mind and connecting with your true self.

This leads to a peaceful and detached life.
Chapter 7: Live what you learn

Meditation helps you discover “who you are”.

One who truly surrenders to God and worships with his attributes discovers his true self.
Chapter 8: Never give up on yourself

The rewards you receive at the end are always worth the wait. So don’t give up and keep being committed to your goals.
Chapter 9: Value your blessings

Always count your blessings and be grateful for what you have achieved so far.
Comparison is the ultimate enemy of your happiness.
Chapter 10: See divinity

Meditation helps you unlock the miracles of life. The entire universe is the divine manifestation of god.
Chapter 11: See the truth as it is

You are everything and everything is in you.
Once you understand this, you’ll understand the truth.
Chapter 12: Absorb your mind

Once you understand that the divine loves you, you cannot but fall in love with the divine.
Absorb your mind in the higher.
Chapter 13: Detach from materialistic things

Materialistic things are nothing but a waste of energy and time. It won’t get you anywhere near your growth or goals.
Chapter 14: Live a lifestyle that matches your vision

Identify yourself as self, not as a body.
This is when you see the true you and find your vision. Live a lifestyle that aligns with it.
Chapter 15: Prioritise divinity

Always prioritise the divine. The first step is to develop detachment, pride, and sorrow and be free from worldly pursuits.
Just keep giving.
Chapter 16: Being good is a reward in itself

Krishna discusses the importance of virtues over vices in this chapter.
Have patience, truth, a sense of control, humility over ego, greed, slander, and attachment.
Chapter 17: Choose right over pleasant

You can have the power of choosing right over the pleasant by acquiring knowledge and living life as a Satvic.
Chapter 18: Let go

Renunciation doesn't mean abandoning real life or living with indifference to the world. It simply means living as a Karma yogi and letting go of all the things that hold you back and moving forward.

These paradoxes will change your life:

The Brakes Paradox

What allows a Formula 1 driver to fly around the track?

It's not the engine, the tires, or the suspension.

It's the brakes.

Strong, reliable brakes unlock the driver.

Build brakes into your life that allow you to accelerate and hit turns without fear.

The Advice Paradox

Taking more advice leaves you less well-equipped.

Most advice sucks.

It's well-intentioned, but it's dangerous to use someone else's map of reality to navigate yours.

Winners learn to filter and selectively implement advice—take the signal, skip the noise.

The Opportunity Paradox

Take on less, accomplish more.

Success doesn’t come from taking on every opportunity.

It comes from deploying energy on the opportunities that matter—the 10x opportunities.

Time and energy are finite.

Say yes to what matters & no to everything else.

The Persuasion Paradox

Have you noticed that argumentative people rarely persuade anyone of anything?

Persuasive people don’t argue—they observe, listen, and ask questions.

Argue less, persuade more.

Persuasion is an art that requires a paintbrush, not a sledgehammer.

Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that undermine the quality of an argument.

THREAD: 20 common logical fallacies to learn, identify, and avoid:

Ad Hominem

Latin for "to the person" - an attack of the person rather than the argument.

Instead of addressing the argument and its points and merits, the offender attempts to refute the opposition on the basis of personal characteristics.

All-too-common in politics.

The Texas Sharpshooter

A Texan fires a gun at a barn wall and then paints a target around the closest cluster of bullet holes to create the appearance of accuracy.

Selecting and highlighting evidence that supports the conclusion while ignoring evidence that may refute it.

The Bandwagon Fallacy

An assumption of truth on the basis of the majority of people believing it to be true.

"Everyone believes X, so obviously X is true."

Typically offered without regard for the qualifications or ability of the people in question to validate the claim.

Straw Man

The offender ignores the actual argument and replaces it with a flimsy, distorted, easily-refuted argument (a “straw man”).

By replacing a strong argument with a weak one, the offender can create the illusion of an easy, swift victory.

5 IMPORTANT LIFE LESSONS FROM PLATO:


1 - Create your own happiness

You are responsible for your thoughts, feelings & actions

By outsourcing this power, you allow external factors (people or situations) to dictate your inner wellbeing.

Plato said;

The man who makes everything that leads to happiness depend upon himself, and not upon other men, has developed the best plan for living happily.

2 - Choose your company wisely

Whether you realize it or not, energy is highly communicable.

You will subconsciously pick up the mentality, moral standards & ambition of the people you spend the most time with.

Plato warned;

People are like soil - they can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wither...

THE LAST STAND OF PAVAN KHIND - THE 300 BATTLE OF INDIA

A long🧵that u must read

In desperate times, great men come forth. Those men who are ready to sacrifice all of their lives work for a single cause.

Baji Prabhu Deshpande is one such man.

1/25


Battle was between the Maratha Warrior Baji Prabhu Deshpande and Sidi Masoud of Adil Shahi Sultanate.

In 1660, the Maratha King Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji was trapped in the fort of Panhala, under siege and vastly outnumbered by an Adilshahis army led by Sidi Masoud.

2/25

And while everyone is thinking that finally the Maratha king will be subdued, Shivaji planned to escape to the fort of Vishalgadh. It was administered by a Maratha chieftain named Range Narayan Orpe under Shivaji.

3/25

For months the siege warfare continued as Shivaji made sure that the food source of the Besieging army drops down, due to which they will initiate a general assault on the castle.

4/25

Shivaji, Baji Prabhu, and around 600 of their best troops, hardened mountaineers of the Maval region, would dash through the Adilshahis force at night.

A man named Shiva Kashid, who resembled Shivaji in appearance, had volunteered to dress like the king and get captured.

Here’s a thread about The Black Tom explosion: a terrorist attack on American soil and major event in US history. However, no one has heard of it and I believe it’s proof that our timeline may be changing.


On July 30th, 1916, in Jersey City, German agents destroyed American ammunition supplies by setting them on fire. The incident is famous for causing damage to the Statue of Liberty.


The fires caused the ammunition supplies to explode, lodging fragments in buildings miles away including the Statue of Liberty and the clock tower of The Jersey Journal, stopping the clock at 2:12 am.


The explosion caused windows to shatter as far as 25 miles away, including thousands in lower Manhattan. Some window panes in Times Square were shattered. Even stained glass windows in St. Patrick's Church were destroyed.


The explosion was so strong is registered as a 5.5 earthquake on the Richter scale. It could be felt as far away as Philadelphia. The explosion cracked the outer wall of Jersey City's City Hall and the Brooklyn Bridge was shaken. People as far away as Maryland were woken up.

MAHARAANI TARARANI: THE QUEEN OF MARATHAS

Rani Tarabai was the brave daughter-in-law of Chhatrapati Shivaji and one of the greatest medieval Monarchs India ever had.
She was born in 1675 to one of the bravest commander-in-chiefs of Shivaji's Army named Hambir Rao Mohite.


Tarabai was just 8yrs old when she was married to Shivaji's younger son, Rajaram. Mughals and Marathas were constantly at war with each other. Shivaji was crowned the ruler of the Independent Maratha Swarajya in 1674 which was established by him.


However,the great leader died in 1680&the Maratha Samrajya went into a complete&total chaos.Marathas saw some very tough times ahead. In 1689,when Raigad Fort fell to the Mughal Army of over 15000,Shivaji's first wife Saibai and his elder son Sambhaji were captured&put to death.


Sambhaji's wife and son Shahu were taken prisoners to the Mughal court. During the same battle, Shivaji's second son Rajaram(Tarabai's husband) , who was the heir to the throne now, managed to escape using a disguise. He made his way to the Gingee Fort in Tamil Nadu.


Mughal General Zulfikar Khan, however, followed them to Gingee laying siege to the Gingee Fort. From 1690-1698,This was the longest siege by a Mughal Army of any Fort which stands testimony to the military and diplomatic credentials of Rani Tarabai.
