North Korea launched its most advanced monster missile yet. China is readying its 'mysterious' amphibious ship. Russia is advancing in Ukraine while losing men. America goes to poll and civil uncertainty. Global economy is on the brink. What is coming? Let's game plan it.
Diwali or Deepawali is not just a "festival of lights". It cannot and should not be reduced to facetious symbolism. It has Dharmic and spiritual context and underpinning, which must be remembered and emphasized.
Current American establishment's quest for control and "teaching countries lessons" is pushing the geostrategic chessboard in a certain direction. The resultant Indo-China rapprochement may be a watershed moment in this century. A detailed analysis.
Yamaguchi Prefecture’s Nishikigawa Railway in Japan has an unusual railway station on its Nishikigawa Seiryu Line. It is called – Seiryu Miharashi Eki, which means “Clear Stream Viewing Platform Station“.
What is so unique about this station is that it is stand alone. It has no entrance and no exit and it’s completely inaccessible to anyone approaching by any other means other than the train. You cannot walk to it or walk away from it. You have to come in by the train and then take the train out of it.
There is something about the love for trains amongst the Japanese. The railways there love to delight the passengers with different things. Apart from the fastest bullet trains, the Japanese railway companies have come up with some remarkable creative ideas.
This railway station, therefore, carries on that tradition. It is created so that people can come and watch and marvel at the lovely nature and scenery around there along the Nishiki River in Iwakuni
It is just a simple platform with no seat or bench. Just a way to view the beautiful Nishiki river.
