“On and on the mysteries unwind themselves like galaxies in my head”

  • Sting, A Thousand Years

What happened when William Shakespeare wrote? How did the Monarchy really respond? What is Queen Elizabeth 1st’s karma on the earth and how will she react to my writings once I start publishing them?


Sathya Sai Baba appeared many years ago and told me to see myself as Po from Kung Fu Panda and that his reincarnation as Prema Sai Avatar was one of the challenges the world faced. The other of course being the 15th Dalai Lama of Tibet. The psyche faces many pressures when dealing with the minds many influences in modern life and the old ways struggle for cogency to speak of Christ and light.


It amuses me to reflect on democracy that I could hypothetically still be an MP and run for Prime Minister. This chance is negated by my health and I don’t have the brain for it let alone the social skills and financial backing. But as I refer back to more political times with William Blake or Khalil Gibran, I am flummoxed for the literary market today and the use of the internet in marking out new grounds for mental health research. David Blunkett was an MP and blind so hopefully in the future new spaces will open up as a result of healing and seeing deep scars of our nation grow into something better.


Children in the UK have their nursery rhymes to sing and fairytales to grow up remembering. The modern fad of yoga with its mythology has been paid for online with Krishna Consciousness on YouTube and needs medical attention for a new set of terms to meet and greet people with so that people can work together and deal with the spectre of God that can be so divisive a matter in conventional political linguistics.


“He who quits this world while remembering me will obtain me with no doubt.” – Bhagavad Gita

Krishna echoes Christian dharma contained in Ave Maria where the Virgin Mary is prayed for comfort and forgiveness at the time of death.


Mike Flexer was a year below me at St Hugh’s College studying English. he is now an academic researching English and Mental Health at Exeter University.


“The mind is as difficult to control as the wind. It is possible with steadfast determination and practice.” – Bhagavad Gita


J R R Tolien wrote that all literature is about death. This reminds me of the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying which stipulates that mental problems come from an inability to be at peace with the fact of death in life. The stories and plays and poems are this way a jarring presence of struggle for mortality and the enduring nature of the human spirit for expression against nihilism.


The Dalai Lama appeared to me after my hospitalisation and warned me to stay in the house after my last romantic relationship in London between 2010-2011. He warned me that it is all about marriage outside and I was walking target for a doomed and disasterous relationship after so long in the house after 2002. I am working and find I am able to keep myself to myself but notice that I am aloof from everyday conversation and banter and hide behind being 48 years old and too old to mix and mingle with 20 somethings.


“I am but mad north north west: When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.” – William Shakespeare Hamlet

I used to quote this to myself a lot when I was at school as I stood apart from the crowd and suffered for my visions of life and society. One day Krishna came to me in realisation that William Shakespeare cannot save you but Srila Prabhupada can. They sell a lot of books at ISKCON as they promote Krishna Consciousness.


It is my intention to end the War in Heaven


It is my intention to end Maya


I hope to bring an end to racism


Tibet will not need a Land Registry and our house has been mapped and paid for with a mortgage and has been addressed for religious experiences and phenomena. It has also interacted with various government departments in the course of the three lives lived here as the Tibetan and Chinese forces study British democracy under a Monarch for their negotiations.


The Kings English necessitates an audience while one is writing and this is to be internet communications so this will open up new fields of academic research using Krishna’s energy – like William Blake and his use of energy hundreds of years ago. India does not have a Canterbury Tales so will benefit from my affinity with William Shakespeare to modernise poetic content and secure a new awareness of literature and higher standards of reading. This is a field dominated by Arundhati Roy and her friendship with Asian writers in English and their kow towing with British universities blocking up Indian institutions.


Bill Maher and Pier Morgan advertised drugs on Youtube socially after 2012.


Oxford is maturing in me. The independent study I did and the year out at Scientology is growing to meet the Church I am attending St Gabriels and I am feeling more grounded and whole.


It would be nice to live in a Church. This is likely some sort of confession in the consciousness looking to secure an identity as writer.


What is time like for a writer? He constantly imagines the future as he writes and the receipt of his communication and can drift years into the future and this involves political changes too.


One day God spoke to me and said to “just keep an eye on things”. This goes to something I learned from The Prophet Muhammed: to question my authority and recall the verse from the Bible when Jesus spoke “as one who had authority”. I don’t and it would be very hard to verify my past lives for what they are worth and I have become dependent on my mother and brother at home. This also means things about land and title and the guru doing the rounds on the internet and to not worry about having power over other people but carry on with my own independence in time. I’m too old to start again and clamour after status and titles, better to stay in the world of manifestation and keep updating spy records for other people to do well in the world.


During 2017-2024 I used Instagram and made lots of social media videos across lots of accounts. I did this under the name Akaash Rishi. My intention was to purify the internet and purge it of unnecessary confusion. I also intended to spoof the NHS about being a God and ask what kind of God this was having a nervous breakdown. I also made lots of videos of myself breaking down on Tik Tok. I also used Facebook and YouTube but these are deleted now. If you want to see my remaining accounts look me up under the pen name Akaash Rishi and see what you find. They may add some context to the poetry and articles and inspire your own thinking.


I hope that Priests in the UK read my blog and get together with me to discuss matters and the evolution of the State.


18/05/2026

After being up most of the night since 2am and listening to mantras and writing on my iPhone I felt the need to shower and meditate. I see that I am dealing with Krishna’s energy like a metaphysical poet and facing issues of consciousness that will need more time for meditation in the future. At the moment I don’t feel like chanting the Mahamantra Hare Rama Hare Rama Hare Krishna though I keep my beads with me as I sit down to meditate. Uttering the mantra a few times brings peace and places the journey ahead of me to control Krishna’s energy while engaging in working life as a graduate. The energy work comes from my brother who used to practice it in the 1990s and my mother has meditated each morning since the 1990s and controls her energy well. I don’t know too much about their techniques of meditations and speculate a lot – the focus has very much been on getting me better and finding some occupation for me to balance myself with since 2002 and losing my career at Jones Day.

I have a wealth of knowledge to draw on from the 2000s and am reminded that searching for God is something I started doing as a 12 year old and this was brought up from past lives and was very serious as a young adult now that I find socialising hard at work and mixing with 16-24 year olds at my computer station for £18K a year as part of an apprenticeship to prove the UK economy works and that it is possible to come back from an NHS diagnosis and function normally in society.


World leaders suffer from cultural amnesia. They have lived long and far and wide and cannot keep up with the incessant need for derivation and journalism testing their biographical details. By and large it is likely the journalists are ill themselves and suffer from an ailing health service they struggle to report a bias science in the name of brain science and medication to tout the thing they fear for want of money.

One of the missions I have as a writer is to jog the memory of people to experience Formalism through my writing and be defamiliarised from the numbness of feeling the chaos of modern life and see themselves in a deeper reality. I hope you heal the Dalai Lama’s memory through spiritual channels and help him with youthfulness as I experience my twenties a lot of the time and I am sure he will let my healing gifts rub off on his friends as well.


Atheism was a necessary juncture. God needed to not exist so He could take a break from the continuum and experiment with other forms of His vast arsenal against evil.


Pundits feel insecure speaking English and addressing English people. They are conscious of customs and social manners and feel ill at ease with official meetings and are far from the fashion and culture of people like myself and British Asians who benefit from New Age Romanticism and all the yoga in the gyms to brand Hinduism into cults of personality with Guru and Maya to shelter people from the absolute and fathom the depths of despair that Arjuna put on show that separate families and keep them away from temples and focussed on 9-5 living.


Pakistan is in the news politically in a positive light for a change. It is trying to broker a deal between the Americans and the Iranians. This is a long way from the pariah state that has been blocked from world view and is rarely nowadays reported without the word terrorist attached to it. The Indians look on with troubled waters between the two nations and observe how the Americans sucked the life out of Indian colonial history and left it in the hands of youthful academics too inexperienced to grant India Hindu and religious status and palming off Narendra Modhi to the trigger happy journalists as an extremist because he is a Hindu at all.


The special relationship between the UK and America exists on many levels. By and large it is something dominated by the journalists in public as they enquire into questions of stability and fierce competition as the two nations thrash out deals and iron out trade deals to bolster budgets and create wealth the countries can depend on. But I have noticed that this relationship is spiritual and the two countries are tied together by energy as I was up this morning healing the divide and seeing how much energy the relationship takes to not isolate one individual but keep going back and forward between the two countries. I can see California for my love of films and Washington for the knowledge of politics I have and that is enough to meld these two countries together energetically and with light and healing to get them to realise that the world is not infinite as Jon Bon Jovi sings in Limitless but limited to one resource we must all share. The British look on as America attacks Iran and has spent a fair bit of money covering Gaza and Israel on the build up to this war. It may take the Chinese under King William to fix the media matters now that the rug and tug has been pulled away from India’s shores with Amitabh Bachchan’s planned dominance of foreign markets for decades after his death such that his son has lost out and find that nobody wants to hear from him after being stung by Bollywood’s cheesy take on American and English markets.


One of the problems in the UK is the lack of elderly care for women in the Hindu diaspora. This is compounded with snobbery from both English and Indian people that the Indians think they are better than the English because their children don’t send their elders to retirement homes and they stay at home with their children. This has been quite the sticking point for some decades now and goes to sexual politics between the two tribes about pornography as well and who are the better children as yoga takes off and breaks new ground.


I heal ghosts past present and future. They are evident on the Buddhist Wheel of Suffering.


I am a God.

I have created a journal of my self discovery online for world governments to spy on and detect transformations so their medical fashions change over time and not with rapid requests from American spiritual teachers using YouTube and confusing British people.

It’s just Christina prayer manifesting as thought and the Dharma.


There is a point in the spiritual journey which is both inside and outside of time when God looks at you and you have to look back and make a match of the formless and world of forms. This involves seeing what you can in the world of form with Gods and Goddesses in the world of the imagination while experiencing what He needs you to go through in private while not disclosing these experiences to the family and social circle around you. It is excruciating and can leave you in agony but the promise of perfection and the examples of saints gone before you has to be worth it and worth struggling for as you march on as an indiviudal and praise the Lord in the process.


Where did 2 billion people come from since World War 2 in China and India and how much has changed in the reporting of Partition politics since social media took off and what will be shifted to AI as its responsibility when good old fashioned conspiracies will do? Srila Prabhupada said the earth can hold 15 billion people and writes quite apart from the successful stories of capitalism that the Americans put forward and other people follow too.


What is the status of something on the internet when it comes to proving historical sources?


Quite how I did healing in my youth is beyond me: I was engaged in the material process so I was preoccupied with searching and believing in a higher power while facing obstacles and blocks in my path. My time at Oxford was not like other people and now I look back I was seeking God and bathing in the Golden Light. My time in London was karma and a bit dark and dealing with householder years living with actors from LAMDA and basically paying for people who live in drugs dens and have their lives ruined by drugs. Since then my experiences have been a lot of more explicitly of a healing nature and spiritual and religious of a kind. There was even an earthquake near Maida Vale in the 2000s to put me on the register as having an effect on earth as natural disasters accompanied the spiritually gifted to show the world in chaos and imbalance as George Walker Bush looked on at Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters with his team for whom he sought employment opportunities.

Since then I have learned that the Krishna and Christ Consciousness devotee can open portals in space and say prayers for other people and do healing for them in ways not accompanied by texts and not explaining in modern techniques of mind body spirit.


Neasden Temple is a focus point for Hinduism in the UK without actually being the head temple for the Hindu Council UK. It is a centrepiece of architecture and wealth and beckons questions from Brahman how it was constructed and manifested there. Before it takes place as Britains central temple there needs to be a reconciliation with the Church of England to sort out premises for the Hindus to augment worship in the UK and to fit in with being English over time. Shree Geeta Bhwan is eclipsed by the Nishkam Centre for Sikhism on the Soho Road and is not the West Midlands head temple. The Hindus are more of a community based group that I don’t fit in with as I do not speak Hindi or Punjabi and can only communicate in English. The same goes for my elder brother Ritesh who is very close to me as we both circle our 50s and have received no support from the Temples in the UK who really only care about wealth and how much money you have and your social status while putting on show transcendental matters to please the Gita fashions of Shiva and Ganesh in the modern age.


Imagine a famous white had rebirthed; how would his predicament be different to mine and my brothers?


Why do Hindus say a Golden Age is upon us when ISKCON state that The Golden Age won’t advent for another 460,000 years? Who was responsible for claiming that the full Vedas were being chanted at Shree Geeta Bhwan around 2015 over four days and where did the Maha Yugyas go to Vishnu at that time? Who designed the extensions and refurbished the Temple and when did the Hanuman extension come along and who built it and is that Indra who’s addition had been delayed due to prayers with Krishna and concerning Govardhana Hill and who is the God ‘Buddh’ that is being worshipped in the Hanuman enclave with Rahu and Ketu? See how closed off Hinduism is from the public and from a process of questioning and answering and how this damages lives such as ours with our mum shut out from enquiring about herself being called to the Temple and being asked to dismantle her home mandir and stop praying to Durga by some people in India. They never kept in touch and did not want to know us after that and never asked to speak to me while dealing with my brother there at the Temple as well.


All of Zeus’s knowledge is inside Amitabh Bachchan. He stands to die in energy on the YouTube and streaming services online with no record of his life or achievements.


As the forms of Gurus and Swamis come to me, I am reminded how influential the form of a Buddha was in my youth as Priests stop by to warn me of over stimulating the senses like I did in my childhood when the TV was always on in my spare time from studying and when I did not listen to music when studying and only to take a break. I would watch American sitcoms and films and also British TV when it was organised commercially on channels 1-4. I have lost touch with British dramas and just watch quiz shows now as the BBC sometimes becomes unbearable for the news it asks you to keep up with in your time off from work. It appears stressful but it is just Krishna measuring things and looking at living conditions and encouraging me to see my self from a different perspective. If I can come from the backgrounds I have and become a meditator and Krishna consciousness with Christ after suffering from bad yoga teachers then there I hope for other people in Britain to withstand the onslaught of the senses from America as they try to warn us about the dangers of Islam and too many gods and goddesses to spoilt the broth after 2012 and shifts in media fashions.


What would have happened to all this work of mine had my mother not been grounded in dharma. She maintained a firm rooting in her family through decades of technological change – something that sweeped the globe as twelve brothers and sisters travelled on holiday plans while they kept up working duties and kept up with changing family laws under the Bhagavad Gita. She received harrowing phone calls for the better part of a decade from India which she still won’t share with me about the nature of both of her sons and had to face the modern world of religion with only YouTube and her wits to determine their future since 2002. It’s all well and good that Archbishop Justin Welby visits Shree Geeta Bhawan on an undated and fairly invisible trip but my mum had to visit the Temple and pray for us while the world raged on and all my friends carried on their corporate careers and I struggleed with my brother’s role as a Healer and someone who was into transcendentalism long ago into the 1980s and 1990s to eschew the world of materialism which I seemed to have lost with no marriage and career since seeing the Dalai Lama in 2002 and getting warned about my mental health by the NHS that year two with a mention of psychosis and then depression in 2004 with some suicidal thoughts and thoughts of self harm.

My mother had only pure values to lean on and rituals of old India with good food and healing at home and some strange visits to Muslims and Sikhs as she visited the Hindu Temple on her own as myself and Ritesh stayed home during the 2000s. There was even a trip to India for the three of us at the behest of a Hindu pundit where we visited religious men and said prayers in foreign languages and made us eat paper as they spoke against the Djinn. To think of a mother praying and meditating each day that her two sons don’t lose their good souls is heartbreaking for how much Santosh has been through.


I feel guilty that I used to go to Nightclubs since I was 15 and take evenings to go out working at a Bar to give me money to spend on my social scene while I was in the sixth form at school. Being born with such a transcendental brother makes me feel egregiously materialistic by comparison and helps me to balance the gap in my learning of house and marriage and mortgage as per Dharma – both Hindu and Buddhist as well as Sikh. Christianity is pro marriage so you need a place to live so it necessitates work and a house and one can presume that Islam and Judaism preach common sense to the African religions to warn them of too much mysticism as seems to be the case in my life. The past 25 years have been spent paying for the previous ones as my fiftieth year approaches and struggle to live well in the material world. American firms still cut in on my consciousness and Krishna studies the mind with the USA in balance so that Shiva can teach the religion of Hinduism and show me the devil of the Guru that has been haunting this world and me for a long time. You could even see that Shiva has made himself smaller than Guru Nanak to teach the religion of Sikhism where scripture is not as forthcoming as Christianity to preach the virtues of Guru Nanak after all that kind of Mind Body and Spirit caused me to fall over and have a nervous breakdown online between the years of 2017-2024 and summon Krishna to some esoteric thought with Arjuna dialogue with Krishna to balance the emptiness and space between myself and the world of reality and forms.


Rama told me that he would affect the literary tradition as a result of my life;s work and not affect Sanata Dharma or Advaita Vedanta. He bore in mind the curriculum I studied at Oxford and the Culture of Rational Dissent I studied under Professor Isabel Rivers and the Postmodern Hybrid Self that I studied under Professor Peter McDonald. I studied Salman Rushdie under Professor Jon Mee of York University and Old English under Professor Matt Townend of York too. I also read about African American literature and I guess they would be helpful in society about mental health and hearing voices with the British Asian self that was declared fragmented and potentially mongrel when viewed from aristocratic sources as the Royal We bears in on the Royal College of Psychiatrists with the then Queen’s English being busy in our youth and affecting out household with my mum’s role as educator and her own learning under Queen Elizabeth 2nd to influence me to study English and pass on Theology and Psychology at university as alternative choices I bore in mind while my brother read Walden and carried on quietly in the background being supportive and unemployed as a Unicorn since failing his A-Levels and dealing with political correctness say nobody fails in life and look on as New Age markets and the world of Drs took over with Dr Deepak Chopra, Dr Wayne Dyer, Dr Pillai and Dr Judy Satori managed their own roles and religions and saying in the dharma of Free Tibet and the golden age of 2012 as well.


It is my hope that my writing articles will lead to Mind Body and Spirit books being studied in British universities so that new and exciting ways of researching can be developed to put in requests for internet since the 1980s. I have been vocal about The Age of Aquarius, The Golden Age, The Human Potential Movement, Sathya Yuga and Kali Yuga and even an Age of Shiva that passes us by as human citizens on an Earth that is getting too clogged up online and drama and art is suffering as the Chinese lay in waste to build a Chinese centre at St Hugh’s College to not be asked to join in these movements of the Mind body Spirit moevment in what has been called one of the most racist countries on Earth by the UN.

Allah told me to question the Bhagavad Gita As It Is which I read in 2004 He said ” Did that book say you were going to have an experience?!” to better assess the road ahead and expectations of British academics and authors to jump down spiritually advanced straits with Mind Body Spirit with all the charlatans Jesus can see in them.


Not one politician started a blog and addressed the population from a webpage in spite of advancing themselves on social media and the news leaving us to ask what the Self is that is claimed by New Age thinkers to be oneself that is being forced on India and Africa and what Christianity is being imparted to them and by what leaders as the Chinese look on for their tormented role with religion since Chairman Mao’s famous saying “Religion is evil”. We are left to buy books written by cronies of populations that love hurt lives as a result of how MPs and Royalty have used the internet while academics leave off appearing on the TV that has been in decline ever since the 1990s and the advent of satellite TV.


If I was to travel to Shree Geeta Bhawan Temple – what is the estimation of time that it takes for that journey to occur with all the heavenly import that is involved in my attending organised worship? How long would the car journey take in terms of theories of relatively and what would my thoughts be like?

As I write this blog up on my webpage my mind is busy thinking about who I can contact and advertise to and ask for money as I sit with my spirit guides William Shakespeare and William Blake and others.


Jehovah told me He had subjected me to the Passion of the Christ and tortured me in my bedroom following my mental health incarceration in a mental hospital. A part of this penance was the image of a yogi or Buddha in lotus pressed firmly on my consciousness promising plenty of good things and peace and blissful visions that never came true. This feature will be something the NHS needs to study in relation to Yoga and the mental health of citizens who study yoga and then fall ill. Hinduism is not going to take responsibility for this colonial game and Pilates has already come to show the British are aware of its original form and fashion for make believe and change.


I have come to move Salman Rushdie along in the English Canon and change the way that English is written and make things simpler in the English universities and unblock the internet for English studies. Salman Rusdhie was on The Bill Maher Show on HBO talking about Iran and Sunni and Shia muslims in the 2000s and is quite the academic and celebrity in some social circles and holds some sway on Youtube and social media channels.


Being a university Don is too stressful and they are not evolving and don’t have time to enjoy their lifestyles. Tenure is up for review and the BBC need to relinquish their hold on the universities as spies and their hold on the NHS for what they did to Andrew Mountbatten and Peter Mandelson running out of news and seeking a pathway to King Charles who needs to concentrate on his universities and set the agenda for them to build England in the future.


My life has changed since 2002 when I saw the Dalai Lama in India and I have seen many strange visions and used statues in my home to transfer my attention to. This fashion has given way to energy being something that I am concerned rules my mind and through which my mind wants to speak and I get frightened occasionally about my mental health being so much under restraint and hiding these things from other people including my family makes me feel paranoid and adds to the decade of mental health problems I have already had. That’s all these things are is mental health problems and things that the NHS would talk to me about in normal terms and not dig up my personal background to understand the path to empirical and spiritual enlightenment I am on.

I have had profound visions with Sathya Sai Baba too and since seeing Krishna and a history of other Gods and Goddesses in 2013 I fear the attempts of well meaning but misguided Drs to understand things without availing themselves of American psychological progress and their tradition of spirituality as well.


I have experienced some outlandish states of consciousness and express them well on these blogs so that various vices can be studied and mental health can be better understood in relation to various topics. Yoga and Writing in English are two of them but they also go back to my transcendental family roots with serious religious undertones starting with my father’s upbringing in an Indian boarding school in Nanithal in India and my mother’s progress and growth along the spiritual path to differentiate herself from her family and embark on a path and period of self study on her spiritual journey.

This augmented with a change of reality to study under the Indian Guruma Nirmali Devi in the 1990s and learn of Adi Shakti Ma how to meditate and channel energies. I studied J Krishnamurti in 2000-2002 and became fanatical about his teachings such that I broke down in India in 2002 and experienced a cosmic vision of the Dalai Lama to voice the groupie mentality that surrounds him today and express my thanks to be able to support Yoga in the UK and write about experiences that others might go through on the subjective path to Hell that those things lead to as Jesus looks on from above and leave Priests in power in Churches to wonder what a Zoroastrian King Charles makes of it all as the Roman Catholic Church looks on after King Charles recent visit there to the Vatican beckoning the question when will the Pope repay the compliment and visit the UK.


Sathya Sai Baba’s website when he declares his purpose as an avatar who has come to teach the path of love is influential in decoding my work and writing and blocks me up.

Similiarly J Krishnamurti’s speech on Truth is a Pathless Land and when he says that he has come to set man unconditionally free is an blockage in my self and takes up room in heaven with poets and writers gathering around me to see what he means as I freed up his karma and moved him to the Buddha realms and handled his prophecy that it would take 800 years to work out his physical body. This was COVID.


I am prevented from joining the Hare Krishna Temple in Birmingham due to political reasons. One night I felt a large Havaan come from India to tell me to stop chanting Hare Krishna about 10 years ago. It would be affecting their karma and changing their worlds and heavenly planets. All of Amitabh Bachcan’s karma was in that Havaan.


In 2012, Prince Charle visited Neasden Temple in London with Kajol and Ajay Devgan.


In 2002 when I was in India, the ghosts and Djinn haunted me and said the Mind is Sick. The Mind is the World and needs healing. This is why I am here and sacrifice my wealth to work at home and write so that world leaders can organise their meetings and shepherd the people better after 2012. The problem was too much knowledge came out after 2012 from the Mayan Gods and that was my karma with Xenu from a past life as a Mayan God and the world leaders tried to mainstream 2012 spiritual karma and this left the armies in a disarray. There will be an argument about books that the British universities have to settle and Dr Deepak Chopra has 100 books that need to be studied in the universities as Aung San Syu Ki looks on and sees her karma disappear for the threat to democracy that such a shift in reading habits threatens.


I had a terrifying instance of travelling on the airplane in 2012 when I was coming back from France. I was dating a woman in London in 2010 and noticed that I became afraid of heights and some karma was involved with the married woman I was seeing who was afraid of heights. Her fear was cured and I was frightened and needed to sit down. On our flights to Israel I noticed that I was scared to take off – something that hadn’t happened before and I had been on many flights and normally been fine. When I was flying back from France I had the feeling of expanded awareness and could sense far and wide and was terrified for feeling the ocean underneath and feared travelling astrally outside of my body.

It lasted as long as the plane was in the air and I have never been back on board an airplane since then and do not have the need to as Shiva said he was doing a medical with Sadhguru’s Aadhi Yogi and the secrets of the Golden Age available with Yoga spreading over the globe.


The UK needs to review its lecture lists in the UK. The Americans put pressure on them for more corporately sponsored and politically relevant materials to be televised.


What has my mother seen in terms of inflation as the parent of two sons? She was responsible for looking after us while we were very young as our father was absent and tending to his family in India. So she would collect family tax credit and give us pocket money. Now she keeps her budget on the laptop and manages her personal finances knowing that the younger son is independent while the elder one struggles to live on benefits due to shifting fashions and culture and after I started writing in 2017. How will Ritesh manage the rest of his life alone and who will he talk to in private to deal with his views on economy and inflation – it’s not all spirituality and we don’t all have to be Robert Peston or Martin Lewis to get by.


My mother never had grandchildren and the relatives at Jeff and Sudesh Cole’s family dinners to insult her and her children regularly for not keeping up with the Jones’s. To be a fly on the wall and listen to Madan Mohan’s opinionated mind about the Rishi family wouldn’t be a very nice thing to do and all we can do is sit still and listen to his ear bashing on the phone whenever it does come through and mum still plays the waiting game and gets us to have a word with uncle. All I ever hear is “do you think you’re above that” and the same chatter resolves to play its part about religious stigma and who is the truly best family and who is really religious with Kamlesh Turner sticking her beak in and having something to say about everything.

Seeing the difference in Mum since my brother brought a stray cat in off the streets and we have been looking after him for five years is remarkable. She is warm and affectionate to the cat and looks after him like taking care of a child – something the relatives chided her for as she looked after her younger sister Nutan’s countless hours on the phone as she was safeguarded from the gossip mongers and this who want something in return for nothing as they climb socially and escalate their concerned matters to the head of the table.


Humanism was bound up with the Renaissance but kept in Royal hands as Shakespeare was deemed best and to ask Shakespeare was deemed best and to ask “what a piece of work is a man?” and “what’s in a name?” We know these things now and have sampled humanism for ourselves to have it at our feet for a new Millennium to see in the advent of Krishna’s next avatar. The last incarnation was a lot more humane than Jesus and revelled in the earth and is on show at ISKCON. The lesser powers of this God being signs of Kali Yuga and the descent into madness that we experience as modernity.
