When we say a moment in time, we usually mean something modest. An event occurred. Something happened then and not now. Time, in this framing, behaves like a backdrop: steady, indifferent, quietly allowing events to appear and disappear upon it. History relies on this idea. So does law, science, and record-keeping. Time becomes a coordinate

Most disagreements in medicine do not arise because one system is right and another is wrong. They arise because disease itself is poorly understood. Before choosing remedies, methods, or therapies, we must first ask a more fundamental question: what exactly is disease? Disease is both a thing and a process. It becomes a recognisable condition

I engage with reality through evidence, not faith. This is not rebellion, nor contrarianism, but intellectual consistency. Claims that cannot be observed, tested, or falsified lack explanatory value. The universe functions without intention, morality, or purpose. It operates through matter, energy, and their interactions. Anything asserted beyond this remains speculation. Nature is indifferent. Stars form

The oldest philosophical debates are not found in abstract treatises, but in the crucible of human crisis. The Sāmaññaphala Sutta, one of Buddhism’s earliest and most vital records, is a testament to this. It begins not with a sermon, but with a king who cannot sleep. King Ajātasattu of Magadha walks his palace terrace under

Trump’s Second Tenure Through Unapologetic Power Politics Through a lens of unapologetic power politics, this essay abandons neutrality by design. I have written elsewhere about restraint, ethics, and the human cost of state behaviour. I have argued for balance, legality, and moral responsibility in international relations. This time, I am doing the opposite, openly and

For much of history, power was understood as possession. To rule meant to command land, labour, resources, or trade. Political authority followed material dominance, and global order could be explained by who controlled what. That logic shaped empires, revolutions, and ideologies. It no longer explains the world we inhabit. Today, economists speak of debt, inflation,

Type 2 diabetes does not arise only from what people eat or how much they move. It often develops in the context of prolonged uncertainty, where the mind is repeatedly required to anticipate risk without resolution. In such conditions, the body adjusts its priorities long before clinical thresholds are crossed. Long before blood glucose levels

As diplomatic channels whisper of potential ceasefires, a more concrete battle is crystallising in Europe’s courtrooms and council meetings: the fate of roughly €260 billion in immobilised Russian central bank assets. The question is no longer whether to freeze, but whether to seize and transfer these funds to Ukraine. This debate exposes a deep rift

Throughout history, human societies have developed frameworks to explain what lay beyond their understanding. Before the rise of science, events like storms, plagues, or the changing seasons were often explained not through impersonal processes, but through will and intention. This was a coherent first step: assigning agency was a way to impose a story on

Modern science is often divided into disciplines—physics for particles, chemistry for reactions, biology for life. Yet beneath these apparent separations lies a single, unifying principle that governs matter, cells, life, and the universe itself: From subatomic particles to living cells, the interaction and controlled movement of opposite charges create matter, bonds, energy, and life itself.
