“I Am Time”: ......When Krishna revealed His divine form to Arjuna on the battlefield and declared,

“I am Time, the destroyer of worlds,” it was not a boast. It was a revelation: that no power, no empire, no ego, no ambition, can stand against the turning tide of truth.

Today, we watch a man, Elon Musk, echo destruction not as a cosmic necessity, but as personal design. Once hailed as a visionary, he now oversees the unravelling of lifelines for the world’s most vulnerable:

Food aid slashed. Medicine withheld. Refugees abandoned. Children starving.

While he tweets provocations and dismisses empathy as weakness, millions pay the price. Not in theory, but in blood, hunger, and grief.

This is not Time.

This is a man with power and no purpose, brilliance without balance, invention without integrity.

The Gita warns us of this archetype:

The one who believes himself untouchable.

The one who thinks, “I am the doer, the lord, the enjoyer. There is none like me.”

But all who forget humility are eventually reminded by history.

Krishna’s Time destroys to restore.

Musk’s chaos destroys to dominate.

There is a difference, and the world feels it.

And yet, this is not a story of one man.

It is a test of all of us.

Will we speak out while lives are being discarded for profit and pride?

Will we defend compassion in a world that now calls it weakness?

Because the Gita is clear: when injustice rises, silence is also a choice. And every era must decide: will we follow those who build, or those who burn?

Terrific insights into an imploding sociopath’s world view. Someone who cared enough to point out Matthew Perry’s suicidal obsession with ketamine might save him — but I doubt he would even pretend to listen…
