A wandering monk who was a social reformer

Siddhartha Gautama spent almost his entire life after thirty working and wandering on foot in the Gangetic plain. He along with other monks travelled in cities and towns of this heartland and also in forests. The householders watched the wandering monks in orange robes on the streets to collect daily food. The four months of rains were the only deterrent.

The Apocalypse~II

The final Apocalypse, sudden or gradual, would be inevitable in the distant future. But with the major shifts of the Earth‘s tectonic plates, the activity of ‘the ring of fire‘ , rapid global warming and any instability in the Sun‘s nuclear fusion mechanism, planet Earth will face many mini-apocalypses which we are witnessing today and which will continue to occur for the next 1 billion years. After all, we are in the midst of Kali Yuga!
