I’ve read about half the short book, and…hmmm…It is sweet, and carries that innocent Bhakti flavour of someone who committed heart and soul. It is a good reminder of what it was really like to sit in front of […]

Yes, I too was watching some news this morning that intruded on my YouTube feed about the Iran war. Apparently the worlds oil and gas markets have taken a big capacity hit from damage to refineries in the Gulf […]
