  The flat plains of Panipat had seen the battle in 1526 and 1555 where Babar defeated Ibrahim Lodi and Akbar defeated the Afghan army led by Hemchandra, aka Hemu, who was captured and beheaded by Behram Khan.
  Now two and half centuries later, two mega armies stood waiting for a battle.
  What kind of enemy's strength are we talking of? There are many records, one of them is written by Kasiraj, a sixty year old man, who was part of Bhau's huge army. He wrote his Kasiraj bakhar, nearly nineteen years after the war. He estimates Abdali's men to be around eighty thousand while the Marathas had seventy thousand. There are many historians who have given different figures but what we are looking is the fact that they two armies were well matched.

Charlemagne combined many western and main Europe at the time of the Early Middle Ages.

He followed his dad's position to the papacy as sole king and became its protector, driving the Lombards out of northern Italy and leading an attack into Muslim Spain. He waged a project against the Saxons to his east, requiring them to convert to Christendom or face death, resulting in events like the Massacre of Verden. He reached the peak of his power in the year 800, when Pope Leo the Third crowned him "Emperor of the Romans" on Christmas Day at Rome's Old St. Peter's Basilica.

  Liberal White Supremacy - How...

  In Liberal White Supremacy, Angie Beeman argues that white supremacy is maintained not only by right-wing conservatives or stereotypically uneducated working-class racial bigots but also by progressives who operate from a liberal ideology of color-blindness, racism-evasiveness, and class elitism. This distinction provides insight on divisions among progressives at the local level, in community organizations, and at the national level, in the Democratic Party. By distinguishing between liberal and radical approaches to racism, class oppression, capitalism, and social movement tactics, Beeman shows how progressives continue to be limited by liberal ideology and perpetuate rather than dismantle white supremacy, all while claiming to be antiracist. 
   
   
   
  She conceptualizes this self-serving process as "liberal white supremacy," the tendency for liberal European Americans to constantly place themselves in the superior moral position in a way that reinforces inequality. Beeman advances what she calls action-oriented and racism-centered intersectional approaches as alternatives to progressive organizational strategies that either downplay racism in favor of a class-centered approach or take a talk-centered approach to racism without developing explicit actions to challenge it.

  Discover who your really are. Transcending Anxiety, Fear, and Depression Without Techniques or Skills – A Self-Help Guide to Rediscover Life's Essence.Have you ever truly pondered the most fundamental questions of life? Who are you anyway? What is this place we call the Universe? What is reality?As midlife came about, drained and unfulfilled despite being fairly successful, I was almost done . From the outside, my life looked usual, positive, but inside - there was a whole different story.During my life journey, extraordinary encounters propelled me onto a path of deep exploration that concerns the nature of reality. It led me to the crossroads of spirituality, philosophy, science, psychology and even the veiled territory of the psychedelic realm, all in pursuit of understanding the very essence of myself.In a span of years, I delved into the depths of my mind, confronting its enigmatic corners, including the dark ones, in a search for clarity.I’m not a scientist or a mystic. You could say that I’m a philosopher that went outside the perimeters of the institution to test out his philosophy in real life, or in other words, I live by what I say. This is my experience, my self-evident interaction with the universe on a daily basis over a lifetime of almost 40 years.I’m here not to create another belief system but rather to make you question yours.This book could be interpreted as a self-help guide, a spiritual journey, or a philosophical discourse. However, I believe that within the words of "Behind the Mask, Beyond the Mind," readers can discover themselves, or provoke deep questions. In this sense, this book represents a dialogue between you and me; I pose questions, and you respond within yourself. Through honest conversations, we can come to perceive reality as it truly is, and as a result, celebrate, accept, and love ourselves just as we are.
