The Prosperity, stability and power of the United States and indeed the West survives on it being an empire. That empire is now devouring itself. After destroying many. Trump's ways may dismantle this colonial behemoth. Will United States survive as a country, when it is no longer an empire?
When rage is combined with religious and ideological absolutism, avenues of freedoms vanish. Dissent is met with ruthless subjugation and every atrocity is covered up by ambivalence. Let's deep dive.
My India journey started with Mahakumbh, followed by a conference on geopolitics. The world is changing, and we need to focus on the motivations behind these changes.
A temple was built during the Kadamba rule in Goa in what is now a small village named Kadambi Surla dedicated to Shiva. This was deep into the forest for most of the past years. It consists of garbhagriha, antarala and a pillared Nandi mandapa.
And, that is why it seems to have survived the destruction that happened in Goa under the Islamic and the Portuguese invasions. Although there are instances in the temple of attempts by someone to destroy it. For example,
The temple is built with Basalt stone, which was brought all the way from the Deccan Plateau. It is roughly 65 kilometres (40 mi) from Panaji, the capital city at the foot of Amodh Ghat near the Karnataka border.
Kadamba Shasthadeva started the Kadamba dynasty. He was appointed as the Mahamandaleshwar of Goa by the Chalukya king, Tailapa II and he conquered Chandrapur from the Shilaharas and started the rule in 960 BCE. The port of Gopakapattana was the main port and commercial hub for the Kadambis. It was attacked and looted by Khalji general Malik Kafur. The Kadambas moved to Chandor, which was attacked by Muhammad bin Tughluq! Interestingly, in 2005, the then Defense Minister Pranab Mukherjee opened India’s giant western naval base INS Kadamba in Karwar, Karnataka.
