The best way to know the self is feeling oneself at the moments of reckoning. The feeling of being alone, just with your senses, may lead you to think more consciously. More and more of such moments may sensitize ‘you towards you’, towards others. We become regular with introspection and retrospection. We get ‘the’ gradual connect to the higher self we may name Spirituality or God or just a Humane Conscious. We tend to get a rhythm again in life. We need to learn the art of being lonely in crowd while being part of the crowd. A multitude of loneliness in mosaic of relations! One needs to feel it severally, with conscience, before making it a way of life. One needs to live several such lonely moments. One needs to live severallyalone.

IS ABU BAKR AL-BAGHDADI ALIVE? ISIS RELEASES AUDIO CLIP, PURPORTEDLY OF ITS LEADER


Al-Furqan, the media wing of the terrorist group ISIS, has released an 46-minute long audio clip purported to be of its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The emergence of the clip contradicts Russian claims that Baghdadi was killed in an air strike in May, claims that many - including US Defence Secretary James Mattis - denied.

Although a Reuters report said the audio was undated, the references made in it - to the North Korean nuclear crisis and to the Islamic State's defeat in Mosul (in July) - suggest that it was recorded recently.

Rita Katz, the director of SITE Intelligence Group, thinks the man in the clip is Baghdadi.

Katz said in a series of tweets that Baghdadi can be heard "rallying his supporters inside and outside of ISIS territory," and demanding that "lives in Mosul, Sirte, Raqqa, Ramadi and Hama not be lost in vain."  She also quotes him as saying that America is "mired in huge debt and has become politically and militarily ineffective on the world stage."

According to a report in The Telegraph, Baghdadi said "the US was no longer the world's only superpower and gave North Korea's threats as evidence of American decline, as well as Russia's domination of Syrian peace talks in Kazakhstan."

A Middle East Eye report said Baghdadi "spent more than half of the clip discussing an ideological debate inside ISIS and pleaded with Syrian opposition groups to stop working with Turkey and Saudi Arabia, countries which have provided support to anti-Assad Islamist rebel groups."

On the Western media, he said, "Oh soldiers of Islam in every location, increase blow after blow, and make the media centres of the infidels, and where they wage their intellectual wars, among your targets."
