After Transcendence, Choosing Reality

How grief and belonging shape us after transcendence, forcing us to return to reality.

By Saumya Sharma  |  September 3, 2026
Thought of the Day

The world cannot be a silent spectator anymore for human rights violations or violence

The international community must put pressure on meaningful intervention in vigilance

Inaction where action is required or showing lip sympathy by those in power irresponsible 

Enthusiasm of those in power is directly proportional to the distance with common people

Being a yes person without any positive actions is a disservice to the nation and leadership 

Information failure, security lapses, or enemies within the nation are on the hard truth ship

Lazy people are like alcoholics falling asleep and procrastination tendency delays progress  

Certain circumstances necessitate a joint neutral stand to get an elevated experience of bliss

Inaction converts a strategic masterstroke into the most humiliating public failure incident

Repeating inaction without learning a lesson from history means habits instead of accident

Calibrated military action rather than a silent spectator inaction in wars leads to steadiness  

Security threats require evaluation of security measures and thorough operational readiness 

A state of individual or institutional indifference without active participation deficiencies

Lack of engagement or assistance due to fear or hesitation has serious social consequences

Witnessing conflicts/injustice with potentially dangerous situations is not a positive statement

Creating safe spaces and open dialogue is essential to promote more proactive engagement

A collective indifference to important local issues can result in a lack of civic engagement

Educating the public of side effects helps take responsibility for breaking the cycle of silence  

Empower the individuals to speak out on injustices and take appropriate action in urgent need

Acute silent spectator syndrome management requires treatment of disorders of thought weed

"Subah-e-Banaras" captures the profound essence of dawn at Manikarnika Ghat, where the stark reality of cremation confronts onlookers with mortality beneath a saffron glow. Amidst the arrival and departure of seekers and worshippers, individual boundaries shatter, blending personal existence into a collective search for meaning.
