Who is Shiva? (A Poem)

That which does not die is Shiva.

Shava is not Shiva. Blissful one is Shiva.

The body is not Shiva. The being is Shiva.

The part is not Shiva. The whole is Shiva.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I am sharing here one of my poems, tittled, “What is Love?.”

What is Love? (A Poem)

I love you to the moon, babe!

There is only love.

You fall in love.

You grow in love.

You don’t drown in love.

You are a beggar when you seek love.

How do you find Yourself?

Mrinank Sharma and Anthropic

It is 9th February 2026. Today is Mrinank’s last day in Anthropic. He resigns as the Head of AI Safety at Anthropic. He shares his resignation letter in a X-post explaining his decision. I think he was unhappy with what was going on in the world of AI. He wishes to pursue PhD in Poetry.

Even Geoffrey Hinton, who is called the Godfather of AI, left Google in the year 2023 to freely speak out about the serious risks posed by artificial intelligence (AI).
