Episode 1
Welcome Back to the Circus! 🎪Hey, folks! Your favorite truth-bomber is back! I know you’ve missed my daily dose of reality—sorry, I was swamped with practicals (you know, actual work, unlike some of our leaders who prefer photo ops over progress). But I’m here now, kicking off Episode One of my series, ready to drag India’s “golden era” under Modi ji through the mud where it belongs. Grab your popcorn—this is about to get savage.Crime Rates: The Only Thing Growing Faster Than Ambani’s Guest List“Acche Din” was the promise, right? Turns out, those “good days” are reserved for criminals. Riots are popping off like firecrackers, rape cases are piling up faster than you can say “Beti Bachao,” and mob lynchings? Basically India’s new Olympic sport. Meanwhile, the government’s busy polishing statues and planning temple inaugurations. Who needs safe streets when you’ve got shiny distractions? Priorities, people! 🙄Farmers’ Suicides: The Silent Soundtrack of “Viksit Bharat”Our farmers—the so-called backbone of India—are snapping under debt, drought, and despair. Thousands take their lives every year, but don’t worry, the solution’s simple: ignore them until they’re too dead to protest. Modi ji’s probably too busy globe-trotting, perfecting his hug diplomacy, to notice the fields turning into graveyards. “Bharat Mata Ki Jai,” indeed—more like “Bharat Mata Ko Bye.” 🌾💀Civic Sense: RIP, Buried Next to Common SenseSpitting paan on roads, honking like it’s a mating call, dumping trash wherever—India’s civic sense is as alive as secularism in 2025. But why bother cleaning up when you’ve got cow vigilantes policing your diet? Forget Swachh Bharat; we’re too busy ensuring no one sneaks a beef burger past the saffron patrol. Cleanliness is overrated when you’ve got “cultural purity” to protect. 🐮🚨India: 75 Years Backwards and CountingIt’s 2025, but India’s rocking a 1950s vibe—economically, socially, and mentally. Sure, the GDP’s “growing” (wink wink, creative math), but so are poverty, joblessness, and inequality. Roads are crumbling, schools are a joke, but hey, we’ve got a fancy new Parliament building to flex on Instagram. Progress? Nah, we’re just slapping lipstick on a regressing pig. 🏚💄Religious Hatred: The Glue Holding “Unity in Diversity” TogetherNothing screams “India Shining” like a good old communal riot or a hate speech from a podium. Our leaders are maestros at stoking the flames—why unite when you can divide and conquer votes? Temples rise, mosques burn, and harmony’s just a buzzword for history books. The country’s on fire, but at least the election math checks out. 🔥🗳The Exit Ramp: Unfriend Me, BhaktsIf you’ve read this far and still think Modi’s the messiah, the right wing’s got it right, or religious hatred is “patriotism,” let’s make this easy: delete my contact. Hit unfriend, block, whatever—I’d rather vibe with a handful of sane souls than a horde of brainwashed cheerleaders. This is your official eviction notice from my life. Buh-bye! ✋🚪Stay tuned for Episode Two, where we’ll unpack how India’s turning into a surveillance state—spoiler: Big Brother’s got a saffron wardrobe upgrade. 📸🧡

The Writer's Master Plan
The Writer’s Master Plan
How Religion and History Were Engineered to Control Perception
1. Religion – The Greatest Self-Published Bestseller
Let’s cut the nonsense—religion is a business model, not divine truth. It started as a man-made
script, a book written by people who wanted to control human behavior and establish a structured
system of belief.
Think of it like this:
• Every religion is like a book series—and the people who created them are authors.
• Since they didn’t have traditional publishers, they built their own publishing company
(organized religion).
• Over time, new chapters were added—rules changed, myths expanded, and stories
modified to keep the followers engaged and to fit the evolving society.
Now here’s the real kicker—nobody actually chooses their religion.
• A Hindu is Hindu because they were born into it.
• A Muslim is Muslim because they were born into it.
• A Christian is Christian because they were born into it.
It’s not an achievement, it’s coincidence. But people will go to war, kill, and discriminate over
something that was never even their choice in the first place.
This means religion isn’t about faith—it’s about identity politics. It creates divisions where none
should exist, keeping people occupied with fictional differences while those in power continue to
control the real game.
2. The Writer’s Instinct – Editing the Past, Shaping the Future
Every writer knows one thing:
If the story isn’t interesting, no one will read it.
This applies not just to books but to history, religious texts, and even news today. When people
write about the past, they don’t just record what happened—they edit reality to make it engaging,
dramatic, and memorable.
Think about it:
• The Bible, the Quran, the Vedas—all contain stories with heroes, villains, miracles, and
moral lessons.
• Histories of kings and warriors—they are always written to make them look larger than life,
hiding their weaknesses, failures, and crimes.
Reality isn’t like that. In real life, nothing is that perfectly structured. No one is purely good or
purely evil. But history is written to create myths, to manufacture legends that people will believe
in.
The ones who wrote history weren’t recording facts—they were crafting narratives. And since there
weren’t many people questioning what was written, these stories became the official truth.
Now, fast forward to today—this process hasn’t stopped. The news, media, and politics still function
the exact same way. Truth isn’t about what actually happened, it’s about who gets to tell the story
and how they shape it.
3. Truth is a Weapon, and It’s Controlled
The most powerful people in history never fought over facts—they fought over who gets to define
them.
• The ones who wrote religious texts became prophets.
• The ones who wrote history became heroes.
• The ones who control media today become influencers of reality.
Truth is a weapon—it can liberate people, but it can also destroy systems of power. This is why
people who question things too much are always:
• Silenced (because they disrupt the system).
• Ridiculed (so no one takes them seriously).
• Eliminated (when they become too dangerous).
And that’s exactly why this book I’m working on, "The Writer’s Master Plan", is a deep dive into
how narratives have been engineered to control human perception from ancient scriptures to
modern media.
It’s not just a theory—it’s the uncomfortable truth that most people aren’t ready to confront.

Slowing down Time
The Sapient Space: Episode 1 – Slowing Down Time
Another busy day—my task list is bursting, overflowing with unchecked boxes and things that demand my attention. I sat there, staring at the screen, feeling the weight of time slipping through my fingers like sand. I glanced at the calendar—18th December. Just 12 more days, and boom—2025 will be knocking at the door.
Time flies, doesn’t it? One moment, it’s January, and you’re making promises to yourself. The next, December’s staring you down, asking what you’ve made of the year.
But have you ever wondered why time feels so fast these days? There’s a phenomenon called “perceptual time dilation.” When we’re kids, the world feels like a never-ending wonderland—new faces, new experiences, new everything. Our brains work overtime, absorbing every detail, cataloguing every sensation. But as we grow older, the newness fades. We fall into routines, and life becomes a series of repeated patterns. When there’s nothing new to notice, the days blur, the months vanish, and the years fly.
So, here’s the secret: if you want to slow down time, start breaking the monotony.
How to Slow Down Time
- Travel to New Places
There’s a certain magic in traveling. Even a short trip can feel like days packed into hours. Why? Because every corner, every street, every face is a story your brain hasn’t seen before. It’s like flipping to a new page in a book you can’t put down.
Think about the last time you stayed over at a relative’s place. Even if it was just for a day, didn’t it feel longer? That’s the power of newness. Our minds stretch time, savoring every unfamiliar detail.
- Embrace the Art of Mindfulness
Sometimes, slowing down isn’t about going somewhere—it’s about being here. Now.
Try this: next time you’re sipping your coffee, don’t scroll. Don’t plan. Just taste the coffee. Feel its warmth, notice its bitterness, let it ground you in the moment. Time feels infinite when you’re fully present.
- Learn Something New
Remember how long summer holidays felt when you were a kid? That’s because you were always learning—new games, new tricks, new ways to annoy your siblings.
Pick up a hobby, read a challenging book, or start sketching again. Learning keeps your brain engaged and the clock from ticking too fast.
- Change Your Routine
Routines are the enemies of time. Try walking a different route to work, cooking a dish you’ve never made, or spending your evenings in quiet reflection instead of on autopilot. Little changes break the pattern and give your brain something fresh to hold onto.
Time’s Slippery Fingers
The truth is, we can’t stop time. It’ll keep moving, faster than we’d like, but we can change how we experience it. We can slow down, take notice, and let each moment breathe.
So, as we close the book on 2024 and welcome 2025, let’s make a pact—not to chase time, but to dance with it. To fill it with memories, not just minutes. To travel, to learn, to be.
Because time only flies when we stop paying attention.
Welcome to The Sapient Space, where thoughts like these find their voice. Until next time—go out there, and make time slow down for you.

A Warm Welcome to all my readers
Welcome to "The sapient space"
Where thoughts become solutions, and hope finds a home.
Hey there, fellow wanderer!
If you’ve stumbled upon this little corner of the internet, welcome—this is a place where chaos meets clarity, where crazy ideas turn into quiet revolutions, and where you’re reminded that no matter how messy the world seems, there’s always hope.
Why am I here?
Because I believe in change. I believe in starting conversations that matter—conversations about the problems we often ignore and the solutions we desperately need. Mental health struggles, social issues, and the simple act of making someone smile—these are all pieces of the bigger puzzle I want to solve, one thought at a time.
What can you expect?
- Stories about the world and its struggles—raw, real, and unfiltered.
- Solutions that don’t just sound good but feel doable.
- Little reminders to care for your mind, your heart, and your soul.
- Crazy ideas that might just make the world a better place.
I don’t promise perfection. I don’t promise I’ll have all the answers. But I do promise this: every word here will be written to inspire, heal, and remind you that you’re not alone.
Let’s create a ripple of change together—because every thought matters, every smile counts, and every one of us has a role to play in this world.
Here’s to starting small, dreaming big, and making life beautifully human.
Welcome to The sapient space. I’m so glad you’re here.
