Home isn’t a place; it’s the people we love. “Saanu Saariyan Visar Gaiyan” from Dhurandhar 2 (by Aditya Dhar), sung by Satinder Sartaaj & Jasmine Sandlas, makes you feel that loss. When they’re gone, the familiar becomes uncanny. Freud would call it mourning an internal object. You aren’t just listening—you’re grieving.

Yeh gaana aapko choke up kyun karta hai?

Ghar koi jagah nahi, woh log hote hain. Dhurandhar 2 ka “Saanu Saariyan Visar Gaiyan” (Aditya Dhar)—Satinder Sartaaj & Jasmine Sandlas ki awaz mein—yeh ehsaas dilata hai. Jab woh chale jaate hain, familiar bhi uncanny lagta hai. Freud kehte, yeh internal object ka loss hai. Aap sirf sun nahi rahe—grief mehsoos kar rahe hain.

We spend our lives trying to be perfect…
thinking that’s what will make us lovable.
But perfectionism isn’t ambition.
It’s fear.
Fear that if we’re seen as we are — messy, uncertain, imperfect —
we won’t be chosen.
That hidden part? That’s your Yangta.
The part you hide the most… and the part that needs love the most.
And maybe Shahrukh Khan said it best—
“Itni perfection mein mat kho jao ki jeena bhool jao.”
You don’t need to be perfect to matter.
You already do.

What if consciousness doesn’t live inside your brain?
The idea of non-local consciousness suggests that the brain may not produce the mind… it may simply receive it.
Like a radio tuning into a signal.
This concept is being explored in noetic science, neuroscience, and even reflected in Dan Brown’s The Secret of Secrets.
Maybe your thoughts are not confined to your skull.
Maybe… they’re part of something much bigger.

Most people think Dissociative Identity Disorder is fake, dramatic, or “madness.”
But what if it’s actually the mind’s most powerful survival strategy?
When trauma becomes unbearable, the brain doesn’t break.
It adapts.
Different identities aren’t weakness.
They are protection.
Follow for more psychological insights that change how you see the human mind.

सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने कहा कि अगर पेड पीरियड लीव अनिवार्य कर दी जाए, तो कंपनियाँ महिलाओं को हायर करने से हिचकिचा सकती हैं।
लेकिन सवाल ये है — क्या ये डर सच में डेटा पर आधारित है?
स्पेन और जापान जैसे देशों में ये सिस्टम पहले से मौजूद है।
ना वहाँ hiring गिरी, ना productivity।
मनोविज्ञान क्या कहता है?
जब कोई संस्था आपकी ज़रूरतों को समझती है,
तो आप उसी संस्था के लिए ज़्यादा मेहनत करते हैं।
तो समस्या policy नहीं है।
समस्या है mindset और implementation।

The Supreme Court raised a concern: mandatory paid period leave may discourage hiring women.
But global evidence tells a different story.
Spain. Japan. Decades of data.
No collapse in hiring. No drop in productivity.
Psychology explains why:
When people feel supported, they give more.
So the real question is not whether we should introduce such policies —
but how intelligently we design them.
