Read More Saraswati Puja at Garfa Dhirendranath Memorial Girls' High School in Kolkata breaks tradition with a female Sanskrit teacher leading the rituals. The move fosters unity and progression, embracing change while honoring cultural values. Female empowerment and education are highlighted in this unprecedented event. Read Less KOLKATA: The tradition took a step aside as Saraswati Puja unfolded at Garfa Dhirendranath Memorial Girls' High School in South Kolkata. This year, the ceremony took on a new dimension with the appointment of a female Sanskrit teacher, Arpita Vaidya, to lead the rituals. Typically, Saraswati Puja is synonymous with priests engrossed in customary rituals. However, the school administration's decision to entrust the Puja to Arpita Vaidya marked a significant departure from the convention. The move was met with enthusiasm from both teachers and students, underscoring a sense of unity and progression within the school community. Reflecting on the decision, teachers noted that while the concept of a female priest is no longer novel, the symbolism of their teacher leading the Puja served to foster a greater sense of cohesion among students. This sentiment was echoed by school officials, who expressed a desire to provide their students with a progressive education while upholding cultural values. Arpita Vaidya's graceful execution of the Puja symbolised a departure from traditional gender roles, signaling a step forward for the school community. The event highlighted a commitment to embracing change while honoring the rich traditions of Saraswati Puja. In a poignant moment, a teacher's daughter assumed the role of priestess during the ceremony, emphasizing the significance of female empowerment and education. This unprecedented event at Garfa

Prayas Theatre Enacts Sanskrit Play ‘Micchakaika’ – Indian Weekender

Posted: at 2:49 am


Prayas Theatre, New Zealand's largest South Asian theatre group, recently staged 'Micchakaika', a Sanskrit play by draka, at The Auckland Performing Arts Centre.

Set in the monarchic era of Ujjayin in the 5th century CE, this production became my fortunate endeavour. While reading the script by playwright Shekinah Jacob, visuals of the 1984 Bollywood movie Utsav flooded back. This film, directed by Girish Karnad, produced by Shashi Kapoor and starring Rekha, beautifully depicted the richness of ancient Indian literature.

Boasting a global performance history since the 19th century, 'Micchakaika' has translations dating back to 1826 by Horace Hayman Wilson as 'The Toy Cart' and A.F Stenzler's German translation in 1847.

It found its way into Bengali and Marathi, and in 1850, 'Le Chariot d'enfant' premiered in Paris. Renowned artists, including Raja Ravi Varma, featured the central character, Vasantsena, in their art.

The story follows the journey of Vasantsena, a captivating courtesan or nagarvadhu, and Charudatta, a destitute young nobleman. Despite their mutual passion, their lives and love encounter threats from the persistent advances of a vulgar courtier, Samsthanaka.

Amid intricate relationships, love, loyalty, politics and humour, their story unfolds against the backdrop of a revolution seeking to overthrow an unjust, tyrannical King Plaka.

This age-old story, like Shakespeare's but written over two millennia ago, remains relevant in the cultural milieu of 2023 New Zealand, reflecting on universal human experiences, making it a timeless tale, even for those unfamiliar with Indian culture.

Imagine a world where sexuality is openly embraced and celebrated. Perhaps, in a world where courtesans or devadasis mirrored the 'myth' of Apsaras as beautiful and erotic manifestations of pleasure.

This was ancient India, circa 500 BC. Women, affluent, educated and masters of the arts, stood as custodians of temples and traditions, their lives entwined with the divine, shielded from the shadow of widowhood making them akhanda saubhagyavati. One such example was Amrapali, the royal nagarvadhu of Vaishali.

However, history turned its pages to the medieval era, marking the eclipse of this revered tradition. The onslaught by Islamic invaders laid waste to temples sanctuaries of these devadasis, marking the beginning of their decline. The British colonial period further exacerbated their plight, conflating them with prostitution, leading to their marginalisation and ostracisation.

Similarly, until the Vedic era, gender-based discrimination was nonexistent. Archaeological excavations present evidence of Goddess worship dating back to the Vedic era. Yet again, a melancholic shift ensued toward the medieval period, marred by foreign invasions.

Choosing this subject was not an inclination to dwell in the past but an expression of increasing recognition of the significance of intercultural exchange and dialogue. The prospect of ancient literature gaining relevance stimulates collective learning, growth and connection.

Its not just Indian culture that offers us such treasures. Mori culture has a rich and diverse collection of equally valuable stories.

Stories that have the power to inspire us, teach us and help us understand the world in new and profound ways, stories that should be discussed, danced to, sung and passed on through generations as precious and incredible sources of knowledge and inspiration.

Crypto Investors Rush to Bitcoin Dogs as Binance Lists STRK and Filecoin Rallies – Bankless Times

Posted: at 2:48 am


Filecoin and Starket are two coins in the crypto news headlines today, FIL for its stellar performance over the past few days and Starknet for its trading debut after a much anticipated airdrop distribution. Another project creating huge waves in the cryptocurrency industry is Bitcoin Dogs.

With its presale surpassing the $3 million milestone, this project is quickly cementing analyst projections that its one of the best crypto to buy today. Here's more.

Among the top gainers in the past 24 hours, Filecoin reached prices near $8 to see it trade at levels last seen in early January. With the price up more than 10% in 24 hours and 40% this past week, FIL is one of the altcoins seeking a significant bounce ahead of the potential market run in the second half of the year.

With its recent integration with Solana to bolster access to the SOL blockchain networks block history, Filecoin has gained fresh traction for its decentralized cloud storage protocol. Notably, Filecoin has also integrated with Pyth Networks Data Feeds, a development that makes the decentralized data storage marketplace more appealing to users.

The surge in interest around AI tokens is also a key reason for FIL price soaring in the past few days. An overall spike in activity in the space could spark more demand for the protocol. In coming months, FIL bulls could tap into the overall market outlook to target a breakout above $10. However, the all-time high of $236 remains a long way off.

Starknet (STRK) is an Ethereum layer-2 scaling protocol whose native token went live on crypto exchanges on February 20. This follows the Starknet Foundations launch of the tokens distribution to early ecosystem users and other eligible wallets. In total, the airdrop targeted 1.3 million wallets in this first phase, with over 700 million STRK allocated to the program.

As users got the STRK tokens, some chose cash in and thus injected downward pressure. Indeed, STRK traded to highs of $7 after making its debut on Binance. However, it is currently hovering around $2.20 across major exchanges. Data on CoinGecko shows STRK is down 49% from the average high of $4.41.

While the overall crypto market sees a lull amid Bitcoins continued hovering in the $52k region, Bitcoin Dogs, a project tapping into the Bitcoin ecosystem, is taking the market by storm.

The play-to-earn gaming and NFT project is the first ICO on Bitcoin and interest in what it offers has seen unprecedented interest in the native $0DOG. Launched on February 14, the Bitcoin Dogs ICO broke the first milestone of $1 million in less than 24 hours. Less than a week into the presale, early adopters eyeing the future of BRC-20 tokens have allocated more than $3 million.

From $0.015, the price of $0DOG has increased to $0.0198, giving stage 1 participants an early glimpse of what potentially awaits when the ICO ends on March 15 and the tokens list on exchanges. If you are looking to join the Bitcoin Dogs presale, a good place to start your due diligence is the whitepaper. Joining the growing $0DOG community on social media could also be a great way to keep tabs on the project.

However, as the presale lasts for only 30 days and presale prices increase every 72 hours, these early stages might offer the best opportunity to get positioned.

You can check out this projects tokenomics, roadmap and team here.

Vanguard Left Bitcoin ETF Inflows in the Dust, Nearly $1 Billion in BTC Vanishes After Transfer From Coinbase, Binance to Delist Six BTC, ETH and BNB…

U.Todays daily news digest keeps you informed of the most important updates in the crypto industry

U.Today presents the top three news stories over the past day. Take a closer look at the world of crypto!

In a recentX post, Bloomberg's senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas stated that since the launch of Bitcoin ETFs, Vanguard, one of the world's largest investment companies,has absorbed approximately $30 billion in inflows. This represents a six times greater result than what Bitcoin ETFs have achieved. This inflow highlights Vanguard's leadership in TradFi, despite the crypto industry's explosive growth and the substantial attention received by Bitcoin ETFs. Vanguard is known for its conservative position in regards to investment set forth by its late founder, Jack Bogle; the company gives preference to investing in assets that generate tangible returns, such as dividends and interest payments, while remaining cautious toward the speculative nature of the cryptocurrency market. This approach led to the emergence of the #BoycottVanguard movement on social media platforms. Still, Vanguard has not changed its stance, continuing to pull even futures-backed Bitcoin funds from its platform.

According to data provided by Whale Alert,yesterday, Feb. 19, the leading U.S. crypto exchange Coinbase saw a withdrawal of a substantial amount of Bitcoin, 18,484.69 BTC, worth approximately $962.15 million. The withdrawal was made in two transfers: the first one carried 9,322 BTC (valued at $485.248 million) to the address "1AyhP," while the second one moved 9,162 BTC (worth $476.9 million) to the address "19hJg." Interestingly, both addresses were created just recently and have no prior transaction history. This considerable withdrawal did not seem to affect Bitcoin's price, as at the time of the transfers, it continued its incremental growth, being valued at $52,400. However, at the moment of writing, Bitcoin is trading a little down over the past 24 hours (by 0.11%), with its valuation standing at $52,035.

In a recent development, Binance has made another review of its product offerings and announced its decision to cease support of some of them. Starting Feb. 28, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. (UTC), the crypto exchange will suspend trading and subscription services for Binance Leveraged Tokens (BLVT), with a subsequent end to redemption services and the eventual delisting of these products. The leveraged tokens that will be delisted are two BNB pairs, two ETH pairs and two Bitcoin pairs: BNBUP/USDT, BNBDOWN/USDT, ETHUP/USDT, ETHDOWN/USDT, BTCUP/USDT and BTCDOWN/USDT. Binance has established the following schedule of service cessation: trading and subscription services for all affected leveraged tokens will be suspended on Feb. 28, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. (UTC). After this date, all existing trading orders for these tokens will be automatically canceled. For a more detailed understanding, Binance has provided additional informationon its blog.
