Sanchari is 6% done with The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti
Jan 17: to find God you must completely destroy the fiction, because the old mind is the mind that is frightened, is ambitious, is fearful of death, of living, and of relationship; and it is always, consciously or unconsciously, seeking a permanency, security.

July 6 Neither the descriptions of war nor its terrible cruelties and atrocities can stop people from participating in it. One reason is everyone comes to understand that if such a terrible thing can exist and be accepted by people, then there must be some reason for its existence. It is not true that the existence of wars proves their necessity. The history of mankind says that such things should not happen.

May 27 Tolstoy: "Very often, all of the activity of the human mind is directed not in revealing the truth, but in hiding the truth. The potential of the human mind to act this way is our major source of temptation."

April 6 Tolstoy: To improve ourselves, to move toward that goal, perfection, that puts no less a demand on us for being unattainable, requires solitude, removal from the concerns of everyday life. And yet constant solitude renders self-improvement impossible, if not pointless. A balance must be struck between meditating in solitude and then applying this to your everyday life.

Sanchari is 33% done with Time Was Soft There: A Paris Sojourn at Shakespeare & Co.
In a place like Paris, the air is so thick with dreams they clog the streets and take all the good tables at the cafés... That night at Polly’s, the table spilled over with the rapture of pilgrims who have found their temple. That night, among new friends and safe at Shakespeare and Company, I felt it too. Hope is a most beautiful drug.

Sanchari is starting A Poem a Day: 365 Contemporary Poems 34 Languages 279 Poets
Starting unceremoniously in the middle of July, 2021...

"Consider sorrow as happiness
A blessing as Mother’s reproach
Where there is poison, there is also nectar
Passionately go and search
Take poison yourself but distribute nectar—
If needed carry on your head the river Ganga
Here’s a letter to you, O Haldhar"

Haldhar Nag, Odisha

Sanchari is 15% done with Angela Merkel: A Chancellorship Forged in Crisis
"At university in the 1970s, she delved into physics because she relished the challenge of “something that didn't come easy.” It was also the only subject she ever failed in school, a field that produces results by scientific method and experimentation, rather than gut instinct...

What she liked about physics was that “the truth couldn't be distorted so easily” as elsewhere in the communist state."

Sanchari is 53% done with Utopia for Realists: How We Can Build the Ideal World
"If there’s one place, then, where we can intervene in a way that will pay dividends for society down the road, it’s in the classroom. Yet that’s barely happening. All the big debates in education are about format... The focus, invariably, is on competencies, not values."

"Whether you look at the incidence of depression, burnout, drug abuse, high dropout rates, obesity, unhappy childhoods, low election turnout, or social and political distrust, the evidence points to the same culprit every time: inequality."

Sanchari is on page 190 of 360 of An Era of Darkness: The British Empire in India
Starting the part on famines today and amazingly found an enlightened being in the YouTube comment section.

More on the context later, for now -
"You don't know that the British vaccine is already being manufactured and rolled out in India? No? Read more, talk less. You know nothing of history. Britain's colonies and territories have always been protected by Britain."

Said on: 4.12.20.
