Welcome to Workamp Miami. I'm actually really excited to be here this year. My name is Sandy Edwards. I actually work for a company called Live Pulse. We specialize in web design and marketing. And I kind of had up all their projects. I am their project coordinator over there. And one of the things that I love to do is help build our customers brick and mortar businesses in the online space. I will give you a caveat with this presentation. This solely goes along with having an actual brick and mortar location. If you either don't have a brick and mortar location or you don't work with clients that do, this will not pertain to you. So I want to give that caveat up front so that if anybody wants to take off or doesn't need to hear about it, they have that opportunity to catch another talk that does pertain to them. And I will not be offended. So that's a little bit about me. So let's go ahead and get into it. So what is local SEO? That's what I'm here to talk to you guys today about. So the biggest thing with local search engine optimization is understanding that people are always looking for some business that's closest to them. They don't want to go to the pizza place two miles down the road when there's one that's half a block down the road. So how do we capitalize on finding those businesses closest to us and driving customers there if we aren't making sure that all of the listings and things like that are properly updated? So remember when people are searching on a desktop, a lot of times what you'll find is they're going to type in pizza Orlando. I'm from Orlando. I'm going to use Orlando examples, I apologize. And so the idea is how do we make that found? How do I get found for pizza in Orlando? What you'll also find is people are searching more from their mobile devices. Over 50% of searches now are locally based. So that means they're either typing in their location in a browser on their desktop or they're using their phone to search. If you're using your phone to search, we're going to get into how that functions, but you've got to make sure that you're capitalizing on those markets because if you're not, your business isn't going to be located. One more thing, if there's any questions, I'm going to say this to the end because I do have a lot of information to cover. Whenever you're looking at a marketing plan, these are kind of the components of that. So you've got to have an email plan, a social media plan, a search engine optimization plan, a conversion rate optimization plan, and a revenue optimization plan. So we're going to cover the search portion of this today, and we're going to talk a little bit about how that flows into your conversion and your revenue plan, but we're really going to cover heavy on the local aspect. So here is how SEO as a whole for local businesses is comprised. So what you can see is that on-page signals, which is this part right here, actually makes up 25 percent, but that's only a quarter of how you're found online. The only other thing that's related to on-page is the links, which is the 22 percent. Everything else is local based. So looking at the actual pie graph there, you can see that over 50 percent of your traffic is going to come from something locally based and local search based. So that is why, yes, you have to have that base on your website of regular standard search engine optimization. But if you have a physical location, you have to do local SEO. You don't have a choice. You will fail if you don't. So what are the fundamentals? We're all familiar with how if you start something over here with the internet, how it just kind of spreads out because it's all connected. Local SEO is no different. You're going to light one small fire in this arena, and it's going to spread like wildfire. I'm going to show you exactly how that pertains to different aspects, but just remember that concept of lighting. All it takes is one piece of paper lit in a forest to cause an entire forest fire. So let's talk about our local listings. So there are four major names when it comes to local listings. You've got Google, Yahoo, Bing, and Yelp. Google has changed their methodology a little bit over the years. A lot of us are probably familiar with Google Plus. Now that it's kind of morphed into Google Pages, and then now it's morphed into Google My Business. It's still connected to Google Plus, so you're going to have to do both. But these are the four main competitors. So let's go into them specifically. Let's talk about Google My Business. This one is the most important of all of the listings that you can do. This is where you start. This is your starting point. With Google My Business, what you want to do is you want to make sure that you understand that this is also a social media platform. So when you start your social media campaign with your Facebook and your Twitter and all of that, make sure you're doing Google Plus as well, because this is where your reviews are going to go. With that, we're going to talk about why reviews are so important. But understand that Google is also the most heavily used search engine. So when you're tapping into this conglomerate of this local listing and the search engine and the social media campaign all in one, you're really doing a heavy hitter on your SEO. So the next one that I want to talk about, the second most important one of those four, is Yelp. Yelp is important because how many people in the room have an iPhone? You all use Yelp and don't know it. Siri, when you ask Siri to help you find a restaurant or help you find a dry cleaners, that's Yelp. That's where Siri is pulling her data. So we want to make sure that we're really tapping in and capitalizing on that as well. It's also one of the most heavily used review apps, mobile. So when you're going to the restaurant, you're like, I just don't know if I want to try this new place. And you look it up on Yelp to see the reviews. Understands that that's why your business needs to be on there. And know that consumers trust it. For whatever reasons, consumers trust other consumers, more so than they trust any advertisement they're ever going to see on TV. So know that that is definitely a place you need to pinpoint. So let's talk a little bit about Bing. Bing's not really one you hear that much about these days, but there's still a Windows phone market. So we've already talked about Google that ties into Android. We've talked about Yelp which ties into iPhone. So we don't want to leave our Windows phone users in the dust. You never want to leave business on the table. So with Bing Maps, you're actually going to be able to tap into those Windows phone users. It's only about 20% of the market segment. So understand that if you don't have the capacity to do this work, Google Yelp, wait till you can with Bing. None of these cost any money so far that I've talked about. So all we're talking is the time that it takes to claim these listings. It takes me about an hour to claim all four. So we're not talking tons of time either. So now we're going to talk about Yahoo. Yahoo has recently in the last five months changed their business model. And I'm not entirely happy with it. They were a free listing. They're now a paid listing. There are ways around that. I'll explain those when we get into citations. But understand that just having your presence on Yahoo, not a paid Yahoo listing, but just having your presence there is all that is necessary. And like I said, I'm going to explain how to get around that. Yahoo does pull the Yelp reviews directly into their listing. So as long as you are there, those reviews are going to pop through as well for the Yahoo users. And remember, there's only 10% of the search market that's using Yahoo. So if for some reason your workarounds and stuff, you don't have time or the money to put into the workarounds, understand that you're only losing out on a 10% market share, so it's not going to be the death of your business. So let's talk about what is the most important part of these listings I just mentioned. It's the NAP, your name, your address, and your phone number. You're going to hear me repeat several times how important this is. Your name, address, and phone number should always be identical on every single listing. Oh, look, it's the first thing on my next slide. Like I said, I'm going to repeat this several times. When you go to claim these listings, you want to make sure that the name, the address, and the phone number are identical. On top of that, you want to make sure that you fill everything in 100%. There are some listings that are going to ask more questions than others. One of those examples is Yelp. Yelp actually asks for an owner bio. Give it. It's one of those things where I have had numerous customers say, well, I don't really want my potential clients to know my history. Give a business bio. Do something that puts some history in that spot. It's going to help your listing show up. If you don't have 100% of your listing filled up and filled out properly, then what's going to happen is your competitor who does is going to be above you.  On top of that, there are opportunities to put photos in the listings. You want to make sure that you have at least 10 when possible. If it's not possible or you have to pay to add more photos to get to that 10, don't pay. It's not worth it. The boost is not enough. But for the ones that are free, like Google and Yelp, make sure that you get all 10 photos on there. On top of that, there's also opportunities to put videos as well. Make sure that you have at least one when it's free. Again, the boost is not enough for you to take the time to go and the money to pay to add additional videos and things of that nature. But that one is going to give you a little bit of a boost. And when it's free, why not? And then on top of that, reviews. We're going to go into reviews more in depth in a minute. But know that responding to reviews is key to success in the local SEO world. So let's talk about some of the negative factors. There are negative. I apologize. What is going on with my slides? I'm sorry. So there are some negative ranking factors when it comes to listings. I can't get the title to come up. So listings that are detected at a false location. So when you put in your address, if it's not identical to your website, as well as to every other listing out there, what you'll find is that Google or Yelp is going to come back and say, hey, we've detected that's not a real location. That's not OK. So you want to make sure, again, this kind of relates back that the name, address, and phone number are correct. The incorrect business categories. With business categories, you'll notice that when you're looking at, say, auto repair centers, there's also categories for tire repair shop. If you're a tire repair shop, you're not an auto repair center unless you do both. And then you have both categories. But make sure that your categories are exactly where they need to be, and that they're accurate. Because everything is connected online, know that those categories, if they're mismatched throughout the listings, it will hurt your actual Google search results. Number three, and actually, I'm going to tell you this. These are in order from most important to least important to show you the importance. So number three is that mismatched name, address, and phone. Number four is keyword stuffing. Keyword stuffing with the business name, when you type in to title your business on the listings, I've seen a lot of people who type in Uncle Joe's pizza shop, best pizza ever. Best pizza ever is keyword stuffing. Don't do it. We know from the reviews that you have the best pizza ever. So don't put it in the name. Make sure this ties right back into your name, address, and phone matching exactly. And then with the presence of multiple listings, I have had a lot of clients come to me, and they have actually had for Google my business listings. And I'm like, what happened? And they're like, well, I started to claim it. I didn't get the postcard, so I started over. And it becomes a problem. Because what happens is Google goes, what's connected to their website? Who's real? Who's not real? And so what you want to do is you want to make sure that you clean that up first. And there is my title. OK, so citation building. Citation listings are little sites out there that you can put your business information on that clients can use to contact you, but that aren't heavily used like a search engine's local listing. And a good example of this is yp.com, WeddingWire, and the Better Business Bureau is actually an example of this as well. And I'll provide a list in a minute of some of the most commonly used listings. But what these are used for is to actually build your domain strength. So these are directly related to how strong your website actually is when it comes to the local world. So make sure that if you have the money and they're not expensive, you can use a service that does all this work for you. And I'm actually going to give you the providers that I've used in the past here in a minute. If you don't have the money, claim them manually. It's going to cause a little bit of research on your part to find out where you can go to list your business, but it's definitely worth the time, the energy, and the money. Moz does provide a list by business category on their website. And my slides are already up on my blog, and you'll have the link at the end of the slideshow for that. But they do have citations listed by category as well. So top things to remember. Always keep your name address and phone number the same. I told you it's going to keep coming up. Slowly distribute these citations over time. Most of the time I average when I run a report for a new client, we'll see that we've got 6,200 available citations for a brick and mortar business who's never done any citation building before. And so what I will do is I will schedule 10 a month. So that means for six to 10 months, we're going to have this steady, slow addition of these citations. And I use a service that charges me $30 every time I do 10. So it's really not that heavy of a cost when you talk about just $30 for six months every month. It's not huge. For some small businesses, it can seem like a lot of money. But in the grand scheme of things, when we're going to almost double the number of people who walk through your door, totally worth it in the long run. Once again, you're not going to want to duplicate your listings. So you're going to want to pick one claiming service and stick to it. Because sometimes the results from the different searches can differ between claiming services. If you like one service and another service, sometimes there's certain industries that one is better for than the other. So that you could use. But just make sure that if you have a client or a business that you're only using that one service for them. So make sure there's nothing that gets convoluted and duplicates listings. The other thing is use logic. If you're a local business that only services the local area, only use local citations.  If you're a local business, but you can service nationally because you can ship product, use local and national citations. But use logic when it comes to that type of thing. So here's that list of citation examples that I was talking about. So Yellow Pages, Manta, those are some of the bigger names. Facebook is actually a citation listing when it comes to your domain strength. So once again, this ties right back into the need of having a social media campaign. Social media does account for 6% of your search results when it comes to local businesses. So that is a decent percentage when you're looking at the grand scheme of things. There's that local.yahoo.com again.  And then on the other side, you'll see GigSalad. That's for bands and for those in the music industry. And Angie's List for service-based companies. So once, like I said before, it's very gonna be, some of it's gonna be industry specific and then some of it's just gonna be broad spectrum. So who can do my local listings for me? Because I don't want to go and claim 100 citations all by myself. Bright Local is a good one. That's who I personally use. So for $30, I can do 10 listings. It's great, it's amazing. I've actually found that when I run my report the following month after submitting my 10 listings that I actually end up with traction on anywhere from 12 to 17 listings because they're all interconnected. So I don't have to worry so much about the nitty gritty when it comes to which listings am I putting it out on? One thing you'll find is the Yellow Pages is actually connected to like 10 other listing providers. So you might submit to Yellow Pages and end up on five or six others automatically just because they all communicate, which is really cool. Moz.com slash local has an option as well. It's a little bit more expensive. I haven't played around with it too much. I've used it once or twice. WhiteSpark and these other companies as well have some good and expensive options. But like I said, Bright Local is who I use. Their customer service is amazing. If they run into an actual discrepancy when they're claiming the listing, they contact me directly and say, hey, we found this problem. What do you want us to do? How do you want us to handle it? I have had others that have just kind of sent back an error message and say we couldn't submit to that one. So that's kind of that hands on is what I really like about them. So let's talk about reviews. This is kind of like, I don't know, the ugly stepchild for a lot of companies. They're like, I don't want my business on Yelp. I don't want bad reviews. And I have to remind people that there's no such thing as a bad review when it comes to your SEO. So 10% of your ranking comes from reviews. So it really is a necessary evil that you have reviews and that you actually not solicit reviews because Google says don't do that, but that when you have a really good exchange with the client, ask them to take it online. And any polite means necessary. I have seen a lot of clients where on their invoicing system, at the bottom, it says if you really loved our service and want to leave us feedback, please do so here. It's a link to their Google page. And so sometimes you'll find that that can be a two way street because they're not happy and they want to leave feedback. But at the same time, the people who are happy because you asked, they do as well. So definitely worth it. Reviews are gonna set you apart from your competitor. And I know that may sound a little iffy with that, especially if you might get a one star hero, one star there. But people are more likely to look at the aggregate anyway.  There's 500 reviews and they average four and a half stars.  So it's one of those things where it will set you apart from your competitor, especially if you even have half a star rating above the next guy. There's no such thing as a bad review. And what I mean by that is when you have someone leaving a review, it shows that you have consumer interaction when it comes to the internet. So just like a social media campaign, does you know good if people aren't actually active on it? So you posting things is great, but if you don't have any clients or consumers that are replying to those posts, that means your engagement is zero. You have to have engagement to have traction. The same thing is true of reviews. You have to have engagement to have traction. So with that, when I say there's no bad reviews, if you get a one star, the logical thing that I have told my clients to do is to respond. Your response can be as simple as, I'm really sorry you had that experience at my restaurant. I really want to make it right. Can you email me at this email address so that I can make sure I make it up to you? All you're doing is taking the conversation offline. Because what can happen if you keep the conversation online is it can explode. So take it offline. Okay. I have seen numerous times where I myself have looked at reviews and gone, oh, okay, well they have one one star review and three five star reviews. But they replied and wanted to make it right. Everybody has a bad day, we're all human. So as long as you show that humanity and show that you're willing to take it to the next level, help them out, do that type of thing, you're going to see that it's actually going to increase consumer trust. And once again, you're not going to have that bad review and you have two way engagement. So it's really a win-win all around even if you have a lower star review. The flip side of that, it's five star reviews. Don't forget about the people who love you.  I'm so glad you had a great experience at Uncle Joe's Pizza Place. We would love to have you come back. Come email me and let me do X, Y, Z. It doesn't have to be anything other than, you know, we have this already existing coupon that we give everybody in the mail. But to them it makes your customer feel good and it shows other consumers that you really care about people walking through the door, okay. So with that, that's where you come into that whole conversion thing. Because when you increase consumer trust, you're going to increase conversions. It's just the natural progression, okay. So here's some examples of some reviews from a little theater that has an interesting name. It's called the Mad Cal Theater. I've used the examples throughout this entire presentation just because their reviews are stellar and their service, well, I've been there a couple of times, is stellar. But these are the types of reviews that are accepted. They're lengthy, they're detailed, okay.  I'm not saying that's not okay. That's okay. Make sure they make sense. You can fluff your reviews as long as they don't get kicked out, okay. They reviews use a bot to remove spam reviews. So that way, when you do have that angry customer or it was their fault and it's obviously their fault that they had a bad time, the bot is supposed to kind of sense that and pull those out, okay. That's the other thing is you may go back and read your reviews two months later and see that some of those one-stars have dropped off. You'll also see that some of your five-stars have too. So just constantly be paying attention to those reviews and make sure that you're diligently working through those listings and your citations. So my slides can be found at my blog. If you guys have any questions at all, we have time for questions, right, Nellie? Okay, we've got about 10 minutes for questions. I am gonna be in the happiness far if you want me to take a look at exact things you're working on. But if you have generalized questions, I can take questions and I'm gonna try and move from the front of the room back, so. So I have a brick and mortar location in Miami. Okay. And I'm moving to Fort Lauderdale. It's about a 50 mile difference. Okay, do you have your listings claim now? I don't have all of them. Do you have a few? I have a few. Can you come see me in the happiness bar? Okay. I saw two. Number one, can you see a little bit about what Yex does? Guys! I can't hear. Can you talk a little bit about Yex when it goes to that local market and then the second thing is Google reviews sometimes they fall off even the good ones. That's what I was just saying. Sometimes you'll see the five stars fall off. Yext. Yext has a weird place in my heart. Bright Local does what Yext does.  The problem with Yext is that there's no way for you to go in and claim ownership of those after the fact. When you use one of these services, you can. So they're giving you in the report that they give you, they're giving you the username and password they used to set up that listing so that you can go in, make edits, change things going forward. With Yext, they own it. They're claiming it under them and if you leave them, you lose it. And then you end up with a duplicate listing and claiming it out from under them is virtually impossible. So just be careful with them. Not saying you know, not to, just be careful. Yes, that's through that Bright Local citation submission. One thing when you run that is it'll actually pop up in, Facebook will pop up, Google will pop up. But like I said, you want to claim the first three that I mentioned, Google, Yelp and being manually. And then through the citation submission, claim Yahoo. That's the only way to get around, not paying them. And they own Yext, so. They don't. Getting rid of the duplicates with Yahoo is a little bit more difficult. It took me upwards of 10 hours to get one person cleaned up one time. So if you're doing it for a client, that's when I would do hourly, just to be on the safe side. This may be out of scope, but one of the things that I do for my clients is try to encourage their customers to give reviews. And it's very easy on every site except Google. And I've tried all kinds of things. So I send an email and it clicks right to a open aid here at the review window. And it's like, okay, it works on some Android phones. It doesn't work on iPhones. And it's a real pain for me. I haven't found a solution to this. If you link to their Google My Business page, send them a link to that page and ask them to leave a review. It does require a few extra steps on the client's part, but it at least gets them to where they need to go. They don't want it to be that easy. I know. Which is painful for us who are trying to help our customers, and I get that. But unfortunately, it's kind of like that whole thing where I said Google doesn't want you soliciting reviews. They don't want to make it easy for you to solicit reviews. So the client's got to be like really dedicated. And when I say really dedicated, I mean like it's two additional clicks, but still, because you can't just pop them right into that review space. Yeah, unfortunately, it's just not there. Say you run reports regularly, what are you going to do? I use Bright Local. Bright Local is a full reporting service for local search engine optimization. You can actually run ranking reports for where the website falls in the main Google searches as well as in the local searches. And so I use that to gauge all my brick and mortar clients. Their monthly fee isn't necessarily tiny, but they do offer some pretty decent packages. So. They're really low, equal to 200 in cents. So other than, you know, doing something on the machine, is there any other way that you could suggest that we help them get those organic reviews? Google can't see what you have on your desk at the store. Like Google can't see that if you say leave a review, your next visit will give you a, oh, they can't. They can't see it. You can't do it anywhere that Google can see it, which would be anywhere online. But I have had, I've done some heavy, heavy work in the self storage industry. And I've had people with QR codes on their desk that have said use this QR code, leave a review, we'll give you $10 off your next month's rent. The caveat with that is they can't do it at the location because if they have a bunch of reviews coming in from that location, even though they're coming in from different IPs, you'll still see that most of those reviews will drop off. So what you'll wanna do is have some that says, scan this QR code and when you leave and get home to leave the review, it's really stupid the way that they do it, but they do it to keep from review spamming. So. In different cities, do you have one physical address? Is there any issue of using that one address to claim all these different titles of the suit? Yes and no. No, because that's your physical location. And I'm guessing that you have a magazine in that physical city as well. Yes. Okay, for the other cities with Google, there is an option for a brand page, a brand business page. Use that. The other option would be to claim that physical location and check there's a I deliver option and say I service these other areas and it'll pop you into those other areas as well. So that's two ways around it, but make sure you choose one or the other. If you wanna come see me in this happiness bar, I can look more specifically what your areas are and tell you which one's a better option. You're welcome. In the back. Using citation services, how are you able to get your clients instead of saying oh it's my unmarking efforts that's bringing them in? Analytics. Yeah, yeah. I use Google Analytics on the website so I'm able to track where they're coming from to the website and then once they're on the website, I use call tracking through call tracking metrics is the name of the company that actually tracks a number of calls and then with Google Analytics I can also track the number of driving directions that I get and with Yelp you can track the number of driving directions that you get. So when you're looking at those analytics you're able to actually track some of that data. It's not a hardcore number but it's definitely a good growth indicator because you're looking at it before you do those listings and you're looking at it after you do those listings. They were contacted by Yelp and they're paying $250 a month to be in their program. Can you talk about their program and your feelings on it? Yes, I can talk about the program and my feelings on it. Yelp has an advertising program. So that is pure ads. Their actual listings are free if you want to offer coupons to your customers. If you want to search in Yelp you'll see that it's like listing, listing, listing, gold listing. That is that paid piece. So yes, and it starts at like $200, $300 a month for their program and it's got all the bells and whistles. You have to be at a certain revenue point for it to make sense. National chains do it but for a mom-paw shop to really get in on it they have to be doing some serious bank for it to make sense, really. When I was in the self-storage industry I steered everybody away from it. They just don't make enough for the little self-storage places for it to make sense for them to do that. Does that make, answer your question? Okay. Is it on your website? Then no. Because this is going to compare everything back to your website. So if you have no address on your website this means nothing to you. Nope. It's got to be the physical address. It's got to be down to a pinpoint. Yep. Yep. Yep. Same thing with your email newsletter. It's got to all match. I got another one in the back. Hold on one second. What's up? No. You cannot use a P.O. box and you cannot use like a UPS store that has a physical address but it's actually a P.O. box. It has to be some place that you can get a phone call and a postcard and an email to all match up because that's how the different places verify your address. So I go to Google Maps. I go to Google Plus. I go to Google Pages. I go to Google Maps. I go to Google Maps. I don't know if I've covered everything. You probably have duplicate listings. Come see me in the Happiness Bar and let's see where you're at with that and I'll see if I can help rein that in a little bit for you. Yes. I'm going to be contrary to something you said. Uh-oh. I didn't want my own business. I didn't want people. I didn't want to use my house address. So and I had a U.S. in the United States Postal and I can't do that. So what I do, I got a U.P.S. store box and that is my legal address and of course, my email is whatever I am. And I'm able to register with all the local social sites and it has worked for me. You can, but Google knows that's a U.P.S. store and it will ultimately hurt your long-term SEO plan, long-term. What can I ask him about that? Are you afraid that if you put your address on there that all people will come to your house or something? No, I just want to separate my professional from my personal. Unfortunately, you can't do that. For years, I thought that I was going to be the same way and I've actually had stocking issues because of the social groups and everything that I've been a part of in the past. And the issue is you still have to do that because you actually have to give your real address for your domain registration as well. You can face with ICANN with your domain registration and find out that that's not your, if the field comes down, you can have your more domain. I didn't talk to you more about that. Yeah, I didn't think about that one. Yeah, that one's an important one. Do I have any more questions? I will be in the happiness bar for about an hour. I've got one more in the back.  You don't have a choice, especially Facebook. Facebook, like I said, is considered a citation listing, so you, it's a necessary evil. It doesn't have to be robust and you don't have to be posting every day. But you need to have some sort of activity but try and keep your activity level the same because if they see weird spikes in activity that isn't cyclical, like it makes sense if you have a lot of business the first part of the month, every month, right? That makes sense. But if it's not, the cycle isn't making sense then Google's gonna go spam alert. So just make sure that whatever you do it's all nice and even keel, okay? Well, I'll be in the happiness bar if you guys need anything else.


So currently if you try and trade with anybody, you'll get a notification saying, coin transferred disabled. And well guys, this is because of a new duplication exploit. Anything can be duped, not just gold this time, today we get into the details. How's it going guys, my name is DPJ and if you enjoyed the video, leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. So currently if you try and trade with anyone, you'll get a notification saying, coin transferred disabled. And while this is due to Amazon trying to fix and exploit many people it seems have taken advantage of, and that is the duplication exploit. Now as far as I am aware, this isn't an exploit due to the server transfer error people were getting, this is actually a new old exploit. I say new old because this exploit from what I've read was reported many, many months ago during the beta, an exploit which is caused by lag, which is said to have been fixed under initial release of the game, the official release of the game. But seemingly after one of the patch you saw I've read, this exploit was reintroduced into the game. Now what patch that was I don't know, but I'm seeing some people say that this exploit has been in the game for about three weeks, four weeks maybe. So yes, a lag exploit which is common, it's an common exploit people do use, not just in MMOs, it's an exploit you can still use in Borderlands to this day, as well as many other games. It's an exploit which I think is pretty hard to fix also. And to be honest guys, it's an exploit many people use, one of the first exploits that's been many people try in these new games. Now we actually isn't just trading that's been disabled, you can't buy, sell from trading posts, you can't deposit or withdraw from treasurers, I mean you can't do much. Now Amazon have pulled out a statement and they said hi all, we are aware of a possible gold duplication exploit that has been circling and we are temporarily disabling all forms of wealth transfer between players, i.e. sending currency, guild treasury, trading posts, player to player trading. Any player that has engaged in the use of this exploit will be actioned against. Once a gold duplication exploit has been investigated and we are ready to turn on the wealth system again, we will update this post, thank you for your understanding. So I understand why things have been disabled, I mean it makes sense, what definitely doesn't make sense to me though is how they think they will track and punish every player that uses this exploit. The problem is, it doesn't just end with people who purposely use this exploit, what about people who brought something from a trading post and didn't know it was the result of an exploit? For instance, an exploit that crafts a thousand void ingots. Portsmok for sale for 10 gold each, someone just thinks they are getting a bargain and buys them, uses them and their own materials to craft something great. Are Amazon just going to remove that item with all the things, the other things that player use to craft that item and what punish them, I just can't see it happening. What about people who were genuinely just trading with somebody, didn't know that the said item was the result of an exploit? Or said gold they've sold something they own for is duplicated gold. I mean it's just impossible in my opinion to find and punish everybody who's come to contact with somebody who's used this exploit or the item which is the result of this exploit. It seems impossible to me and it's an issue I feel won't be fixed any time soon. And I feel the warning pulled out by Amazon is just one to scare people into not doing such things because I highly doubt like I said they'll punish every person who came across items that were a result of an exploit. It just wouldn't happen and it would take so much work it's unreal and at the end of the day they would be punishing players who probably didn't even know an exploit was even going on in the game. So now it's over to Amazon and hopefully they can fix it because the trade and aspect of this game is a massive massive part. But this definitely isn't good news, especially if this is an exploit that's been in the game for weeks, four weeks maybe? That's craziness. A massive part of this game has been exposed, taken advantage of and a ton of players have profited off it. So I guess we'll see the outcome soon guys and hopefully they don't just brush under the rug, which it seems as though they have been doing since this exploit was found and posted. But I will keep you guys updated right here on my channel whenever new news drops. But I don't know at the end if the video has arrived, if you enjoyed the video leaving a like or perhaps out for a new round here and want to see more in the new world be sure to subscribe and if you never want to miss a video I upload you can turn notifications on by hitting that bell button but guys thanks as always for stopping by and hopefully I will see you on that next one.

Welcome to the Hindu News Analysis by Shankaraya's Academy. Displayed are the list of news articles taken for today's analysis and their page numbers in different editions of the newspaper. The link for the handwritten notes in the PDF format and the timestamping of the discussed articles are provided in the description box and also in the comments section for the benefit of mobile phone viewers. Now let's move on to the first news article. This news article is related to the recent developments between North Korea and South Korea. In this context, let us discuss in detail about the geography of North Korea and South Korea and then we will come to the ongoing issue. The syllabus relevant for the analysis of this news article is highlighted here for your reference. First, let us see about North Korea, which is formerly called as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. See, it's a country which is located in the East Asian region and it occupies the northern portion of Korean Peninsula. The Korean Peninsula projects or protrudes from the Asian mainland between the East Sea which is also called as the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea. The North Korea, it covers around 55% of the land area of the Korean Peninsula. We can see that the North Korea in the north is bordered by China and Russia. The south it is bordered by the Republic of Korea called as South Korea. The capital of North Korea is Pyongyang which is a major industrial and transport center near the west coast of North Korea. What separates North Korea and South Korea? See, there is a demilitarized zone and this zone roughly follows 38 degree north latitude which is also called as 38 parallel. This demilitarized zone was established by the terms of 1953 armistice which ended the Korean War that happened during 1952-1953. If you come to the ethnic groups, the Korean Peninsula is one of the most ethnically homogenous regions in the world. The North Korean population is almost entirely Korean. A tiny number of Chinese constitute the only other significant ethnic group in North Korea. Now let us come to South Korea. See from the name we can understand that it occupies the southern portion of Korean Peninsula in the East Asia. Now South Korea is bordered by North Korea and the North, East Sea or Sea of Japan to the east, then East China Sea to the south and in the west we could see Yellow Sea. Now to the southeast it is separated from Japan, particularly it is separated from Japanese island of Sushima by the Korea Strait. And South Korea makes up about 45% of the land area of the peninsula with capital as Seoul. So coming to the people, the population of South Korea is highly homogenous. Almost the entire population is ethnically Korean. With a small minority of ethnic Chinese permanent residents then there are also some foreigners from Japan and also from the United States. Now let's discuss in brief about the relations between North Korea and South Korea. See since the year 1910, the Korean Peninsula was under Japanese rule. At the end of the Second World War, two groups claimed the Korean Peninsula. One group consisted of communist revolutionaries which was supported by USSR and this team was led by Kim Ul Sung. The other group was inspired by Western science and industrialism. This was led by Shingman Ri. While Kim later became the founder of North Korea, Shingman Ri became the first president of South Korea. In the year 1945, the United States and USSR, they agreed for a temporary division of Korea at the 38th parallel or 38th degree North latitude. Because of ideological differences, they could not devise a plan for reunification of the divided Korea. In the year 1948, South Korea was established under Shingman Ri and in 1950, the North Korean army attacked South Korea with the support of USSR and this saw the beginning of the Korean War. In the year 1953, an armistice agreement was signed between the two Koreas at Panmunjom. Panmunjom is part of the demilitarized zone which serves as buffer between North Korea and South Korea. So as we said, the demilitarized zone runs along the 38th parallel. So with this, let us come to the present tensions between the two countries. Last week, a South Korean official was reportedly killed by the troops of North Korea. Though the North Korean leader, King Jong-un, apologized for the incident, the tensions are escalating between the two countries. The article says that the North Korea accused South Korea of sending ships across the disputed sea boundary to find the body of the South Korean official. Our news reports are saying that this has potential to escalate the tensions between the troubled neighbors. So these are some of the information with reference to the analysis of this news article. In the film's perspective, the geography related to North Korea and South Korea, we saw a brief history of the Korean Peninsula, what happened after the Second World War, and the present tensions between North and South Korea. Now let's move on to the analysis of the next news article. This news article talks about temples in Karnataka, which are to be nominated for getting the status of UNESCO World Heritage Site. The temples which are to be nominated include Bailur, Halibidu, and Somanathapura temples. Here the Bailur and Halibidu temples are located in the Hasan district of Karnataka. Both these locations were once the capital of the Hoisala Empire. The Channakeshawa temple complex in Bailur was built by King Vishnu Vardhana in 1117 AD. This temple was built in memory of his victory against Cholas in Talakadu. And in Halibidu, the main temples include Hoisala Ishwara temple, then Kedari Ishwara temple. The term Halibidu literally means ruined city because this city was ruined twice by Sultanates of Bahmani. The Hoisala Ishwara temple was built during 12th century and it is attributed to the Hoisala ruler Vishnu Vardhana. Now apart from the two Hindu temples, the Halibidu temple complex also has two Jain Basadis or two Jain temples. Now coming to Somanathapura Channakeshawa temple, it lies in the Mysore district of Karnataka. The temple was built by Hoisala commander Somnath in 1268 AD. All these three temples are finest examples of Hoisala architecture. So in the context of analyzing this news article, we will discuss about the World Heritage Convention of UNESCO, the UNESCO World Heritage Site status, then we will see some temples in India which are already granted the status of UNESCO World Heritage Now when we say World Heritage, according to UNESCO it is defined as the designation for places on earth that are of outstanding universal value to humanity. And these places have been inscribed on the World Heritage List so as to be protected for the future generations to appreciate and enjoy. Places like the Premates of Egypt, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the Taj Mahal, Grand Canyon in the United States, these are part of World Heritage List. The mission of UNESCO World Heritage is given here for your reference. We can find that the mission provides for emergency assistance for World Heritage sites in immediate danger, then it encourages participation of local population in the preservation of their cultural and natural heritage, then it helps the state parties to safeguard World Heritage properties by providing technical assistance and professional training. UNESCO seeks to encourage identification, protection and preservation of heritage sites around the world so a convention called as World Heritage Convention was adopted in the year 1972 by UNESCO for this purpose. This convention sets out the duties of state parties in identifying potential sites and the roles of the state parties in protecting and preserving these sites. And by signing the convention, each country pledges to conserve not only the world heritage sites situated on their territories, but also to protect the national heritage as well. It also explains how World Heritage Fund has to be used and managed and under what conditions international financial assistance may be provided. The convention also stipulates the obligation of state parties to report regularly to the World Heritage Committee on the state of conservation of World Heritage sites or properties in their jurisdictions. In this regard, know that the World Heritage Committee was constituted for the implementation of this convention. This committee meets once in a year and it consists of representatives from 21 of the state parties of the convention. These 21 representatives are elected by the General Assembly. Now here, when we say General Assembly, this includes all state parties to this convention. This General Assembly meets once in every two years. The purpose of this General Assembly is to elect members of World Heritage Committee, then to examine the statement of accounts of World Heritage Fund, then to decide on major policy issues. Now coming to World Heritage Sites, see these are places that are listed by UNESCO for their special cultural or natural significance. The list of World Heritage Sites is maintained by International World Heritage Program which is administered by UNESCO World Heritage Committee. There are three types of World Heritage Sites, Cultural Sites, Natural Sites and Mixed World Heritage Sites. When we say Cultural Heritage Sites, this includes historic buildings, important archaeological sites, etc. When we say Natural Heritage Sites, these are restricted to natural areas that provide outstanding examples of Earth's record of life, Earth's geologic processes, then the areas that provide excellent examples of ongoing ecological and biological evolutionary processes or containing natural phenomena which are rare, unique, superlative and of outstanding beauty. It may also include those areas that provide habitats for rare or endangered animals or plants and areas that are sites of exceptional biodiversity. When we say Mixed Heritage Sites, this includes elements of both natural and cultural significance. Now with respect to India, now that there are 38 sites which are inscribed under the UNESCO World Heritage List. The list is given here for your reference. If we go through the list, we can observe that many temples are also listed under this UNESCO Heritage List. So today let's go through some of the temples that are inscribed in this list. You can see Sun Temple of Konark, then Group of Monuments at Mahabaliburam, then Group of Monuments at Hampi, then Churches and Convents of Goa, then Kajraho Group of Monuments, then Group of Monuments at Patadakal, then Buddhist Monuments at Sanchi, then Great Living Chola Temples and Mahabodhi Temple Complex at Bodh Gaya. So these are some of the important religious sites or temples that are listed under the UNESCO World Heritage List from India. Now there are many potential sites that are under consideration of Archaeological Survey of India. The reason why we say Archaeological Survey of India is because it is this organization that represents India at the UNESCO World Heritage Meetings. And many sites are also in the tentative list which is an inventory of those properties which a state party intends to consider for nomination to be identified as World Heritage. When today's news article is about these matters with reference to Bailur, Halibidu Temples. So these are some of the information with reference to the analysis of this news article. In this analysis we saw about some temple sites in Karnataka which are to be nominated to seek the status of World Heritage sites. And we saw about World Heritage Convention of UNESCO, the UNESCO World Heritage sites. And finally we conclude with seeing the temples in India which are already inscribed in this UNESCO list. Now let's move on to the analysis of next news article. This news article talks about Aurogya Path which is the National Healthcare Supply Chain Portal launched by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research. This portal it aims to provide real-time availability of critical healthcare supplies to manufacturers, suppliers and customers. We know that the COVID-19 pandemic has posed a national health emergency and it also caused a severe disruption in the supply chain. This affected the ability to produce and deliver the critical healthcare supplies. So to address these challenges CSIR has come up with National Healthcare Supply Chain Portal or the Aurogya Path with the vision to provide a path to lead a person on a journey towards a healthy life or Aurogya. CSIR expects this portal to become the national healthcare information platform of choice in the years to come. It is expected to fill the critical gap in the last mile delivery of patient care within India which it expects to do through improved availability and affordability of healthcare supplies. So it will act as a single point availability of important healthcare goods and in this way it will be helpful to customers in tackling several routine issues. When we say several routine issues, these issues include dependence on limited suppliers, time consuming processes to identify good and quality products, then limited access to suppliers, you know, who can supply standardized products at reasonable prices also within desired timelines. Then there is also lack of awareness about latest product launches as well. So Aurogya Path will be helpful to customers in tackling these issues. Then it will help manufacturers and suppliers to reach a wide network of customers as well in an efficient manner by overcoming gaps in connectivity between them and the potential demand centers. Potential demand centers could be laboratories, medical stores, hospitals, etc. The portal will also create opportunities for business expansion as well. It will also help manufacturers to forecast overcapacity or shortages so as to reduce wastage of resources also to have optimal supply levels. So these are some of the information with reference to the National Healthcare Supply Chain Portal recently launched by CSIR. Now let's see one another recent initiative of CSIR called as Kisan Sabha App. Now this application it aims to provide most economical and timely logistic support to the farmers. It would help to increase their profit margins by minimizing the interference of middlemen and by directly connecting farmers with institutional buyers within CSIR. This app was developed by Central Road Research Institute. Now this app would connect farmers to supply chain and also with freight transportation management system. The portal connects farmers, transporters, service providers, money dealers and also customers. So it acts as a single stop for every entity related to agriculture. The farmer will benefit from better price for the crops. The money dealers will benefit from connecting with more farmers and also with more truckers as well. Then the people in agriculture services sector like dealers of fertilizers or pesticides, they can reach out to more farmers for their services. Then it will also help people associated with cold stores and good owns. Then also for persons who want to buy directly from the farmers. So these are some of the benefits of this Kisan Sabha application. A recent initiative of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research. With this we come to the end of analysis of this news article. In this analysis we saw about two recent initiatives of CSIR. One the National Healthcare Supply Chain Portal called as Arogyapath. Then we saw about the Kisan Sabha app which seeks to provide most economical and timely logistic support to the farmers. Now let's move on to next part of the discussion. This news article talks about Jimx which is an India-Japan naval exercise being held in the North Arabian Sea. See India-Japan defence and security partnership has evolved over the years and today the defence ties between both the countries. They form an integral pillar in the bilateral relations. In this context let us see about some of the important bilateral or multilateral exercises in which India participates with Japan or alongside Japan. First let us talk about Jimx. See Jimx stands for Japan India Maritime Exercise. It's a series of exercises that commenced in January 2012. It was started with a special focus on maritime security cooperation. It is conducted once in two years that is by nearly between the Indian Navy and Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force. The last edition of Jimx was conducted in October 2018. off the coast of Ishakapatnam and at present the fourth edition of Jimx called as Jimx 20 is being conducted in North Arabian Sea. Now let's see a few other defence exercises in which India and Japan participates together. See the armies of India and Japan they hold bilateral exercises under the title Dharma Guardian. It is conducted between Indian Army and Japan ground self-defense force. Then there is another exercise called as Shinyu Maitri. Here the air forces of both the countries participate. The first editions of both Dharma Guardian and Shinyu Maitri were held in 2018. So these are all recent developments with reference to India-Japan relations particularly in the context of defence and security cooperation. Then we also know that Japan participates in the annual India-United States Malabar Naval exercises on a regular basis. And recently Japan also joined as an observer in the India-US Air Force exercise which is known as Cope India. Another Indian Army also participated in the mine countermeasures explosive disposal ordnance exercise last year. Now this exercise is a joint mine countermeasures exercise conducted by US Navy and Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force. Additionally you should also know that India and Japan conducts a joint exercise called as Shakyokkaijin. This exercise was held between the coastguards of two countries. The coastguards of India and Japan in January last year in January 2019 they undertook disaster control search and rescue exercises of the coast of Yokohama in Japan. So these are some of the important exercises in which India and Japan participate together. The exercises play a very important role in the relations between the two countries and they also have strategic dimension in the areas where drills or the exercises are performed. Now let's move on to next part of the discussion. We have come to the last session the practice questions discussion session. See this question which is map based they're asking to arrange the given cities from South to North. They have given Pyongyang, Wuhan, Hong Kong, Manila and Kuala Lumpur. We have to arrange from South to North and therefore Kuala Lumpur comes first. So you can eliminate option B. Proceeding North wise we find Manila then we could see Hong Kong then Wuhan and then Pyongyang. Therefore the correct answer for this question is option C 5 4 3 2 1. This question is with reference to UNESCO World Heritage Sites in India. They have given three statements. They're asking which of the above statements are correct. First statement at present India has 48 World Heritage Sites. This statement is incorrect because India has 38 World Heritage Sites. Of them 30 are cultural sites, 7 are natural World Heritage Sites and only one is mixed site. So first statement is incorrect. So you can eliminate options C and D with the remaining two options. You can easily understand that the second statement is correct. You have to find out whether the third statement is correct or not. The sites are found in all the states. The statement is incorrect because we could not find as of now UNESCO World Heritage Sites from states such as Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand, etc. So third statement cannot be correct. Now the second statement, Kanjan Zonga National Park in Sikkim is the only mixed World Heritage Site in India. So the correct answer for this question is option B 2 only. See this question. Consider the following Kajraho group of monuments, Mahabodhi temple complex, the Golden Temple of Amritsar, Sun Temple of Konark, the Glorious Kakathir temples and gateways. Which of the above are included under the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites? The correct answer for this question is option B 1 2 1 4 only. See the Golden Temple of Amritsar, which is also called as Sri Harimandir Sahib in Punjab and the Glorious Kakathir temples and gateways in Varangal region of Telangana. These are not yet included under the UNESCO World Heritage List. However, they are found in the tentative list, which is an inventory of properties which India intends to consider for the nomination as World Heritage Site. So here the correct answer is option B 1 2 1 4 only. See this question. This question is with reference to defense exercises. They have given Shinnyu Maitri, Dharma Guardian, Sakhyo Khaijin and Nomadic Elephant. Here the exercise Nomadic Elephant, you should note that it is an exercise between India and Mongolia, not between India and Japan. The 14th edition of Nomadic Elephant was conducted last year in the month of October at the Bakloh Contourment in the state of Himachal Pradesh in India. Now the objective of this exercise Nomadic Elephant is to train the army troops in counter-terrorism and also in coin operations, that is counter-insurgency operations under the mandate of United Nations. So the correct answer all the remaining three exercises are exercises between India and Japan. Dharma Guardian is the exercise between Indian Army and Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. The Shinnyu Maitri is the exercise between air forces of India and Japan. And Sakhyo Khaijin is the exercise between coast guards of both the countries. So the correct answer for this question is option C, one, two, and three only. This question is with reference to ROK Path, recently launched by CSIR. Three statements are given.

I don't know if this is the full documentary or if this is a clip from the Geppeng documentary There到了調. Geppeng I'm Geман. Geffeng. You Geppeng? The science behind popular Indian traditions. Interesting. Interesting. So, yeah. I don't know what that means. Oh, I know Indian has a lot of traditions. They do but the science behind them. Well, I'm sure is cool. Because I'm sure a lot of them are so old, because they come from centuries of families doing and pressing it down. And so, I mean yoga came from India. Right. No, absolutely, there is. So I'm sure it's a bunch of that. So here we go. Beautiful, beautiful, that's gorgeous. India, pristine ground of spirituality, a land with a 7,000 year old history, a land held tight to its ancient traditions, embedded with fruits of its deep-rooted culture, passed on through generations, sentiments intact. Despite having witnessed or belonged to this society with innumerable traditions, we lack the understanding of the logical reason behind several rituals and customs and brand them superstitious and meaningless. We have shelved away many of these anecdotes passed on by our forefathers with years of increasing westernization, a lot of it because of sheer ignorance. It's a cool model. Have we ever wondered why certain things are devised the way they are? Yeah, always. Why do we have specifications to every ritual followed? Always ask why. Beautiful, temple. Idol worship is a form of prayer, but what is the reason behind installing these idols in magnificently constructed temples? Thanks, look at that. What is the purpose of temples at all? Temples are constructed in zones where positive vibrations from the earth's magnetic and electric fields can be tapped in abundance. The peak of this energy is felt at the Garbaghraha or the sanctum sanctorum where the deity is installed. People are asked to walk barefoot in temples so that the radiation is easily absorbed. Men are advised to visit temples bare-chested as the human hair has the capacity to absorb positive energy. Women are asked to wear gold ornaments when they visit the temples as gold is one of the best absorbers and radiators of positive energy. This is why many temple Vimana's are made of gold too. We walk around the sanctum sanctorum to enable a state of equilibrium for the brain by its movement around the source of positivity. These are some of the reasons behind the sense of serenity that fills a person from within whenever they visit a temple, regardless of their belief. Felt it in the golden temple? Sure did. Whenever that was, it was incredibly calming. An unsaid rule from the ancient times is that the temple should be the tallest construction in that particular town or city. We see this rule in prevalence in the Agrahaaram style of civilization in the rural areas. The reason commonly stated is that God is the supreme and hence the temple must be the tallest. A true reason behind this practice is the absorbing power of the temple goparam. The goparam is usually filled with paddy on the inside which is an excellent absorbent of shock waves. Wherever lightning hits the village, the rays are diverted to the goparam and the excess harmful rays are transmitted to the earth. Beneficial cosmic rays from the goparam are looked in by the paddy and radiated inside the temple. Abhishekam. There have been debates regarding conducting Abhishekam's for stone idols in temples. These age-old granite idols have the tendency to develop cracks on aging. Regular contact with agents such as milk, honey and oil help in keeping the idol intact thus preserving these ancient sculptures. Another interesting observation is that the base on which these idols are mounted is made up of a specific alloy of gold, silver and traces of lead which have medicinal properties when combined with milk and honey. This is why milk and panjamritam from the Abhishekam that are distributed are said to have special properties that cure many diseases. Earlier, when the literacy rate in the country was much less than it is now, instilling a fear of God was the only way to put forth scientific ideas and practices involving logical reasoning. We have unfortunately forgotten the essence of such genius measures and brushed them away as superstitious. The Ganesha sitting beneath the people tree or the Arasamara Vinayagar is a widely popular deity of worship among women. There is a common belief that women who are unable to conceive will be able to do so if they visit this Vinayagar every day in the early hours of the morning with wet clothes after a shower and walk in circles around the tree. The secret behind the miraculous success of this practice is the people tree. This tree is known to give out high amounts of oxygen and very minimal amounts of carbon dioxide through the day. Oxygen is said to be the best cure for hormonal imbalances in the body and naturally brings undernourished organs back to normalcy. Gradually, the hormones in the uterus start functioning routinely and the woman is able to conceive. Wet clothes help in better absorption of oxygen thus ensuring maximum benefit of the ritual. The motive behind placing the player is to convince people to follow it in the name of God giving them a reason to diligently pursue it. The Indian tradition crows are given special importance as they are considered ancestors. After the meal for the day is prepared, a portion of every dish is kept outside for the crows to feast on so that the members of the family have the satisfaction of having fed their ancestors. Are they really our ancestors or have our forefathers just been spinning yarns? There is an interesting reason behind this age-old tradition. Earlier on, when there was no electricity and hence no proper light in the early hours of the morning, people were doubtful of the food they cooked. The crow, as we all know, is a creature that can eat almost anything and that never refuses food. Interestingly, it can sense the presence of any kind of poison in food. It simply refuses food if it senses poison in it. People from the ancient times happened to use the crow as a tester for food smartly without harming it. It's amazing how animals can do that and sense danger before it comes. When it comes to the food system, the most balanced nutrients, including optimum quantities of all nutrients, conceived into delicious dishes that are easily digestible. Our ancestors even had appropriate meal timings devised to ensure proper and timely metabolism and digestion for adequate energy to carry out the tasks through the day. As an ancient custom says, the best kind of diet for any in a region is the diet consisting of foods grown in the same area. We have essentially evolved through the years to belong to a tropical climate and be accustomed to the foods and lifestyle offered by this region. With the arrival of foreign cultures and lifestyles, the concept of eating out was brought about with the expansion and trade of foreign cuisines which sadly are not the best suited diets for the Indian stomach. Most importantly, eating outside food greatly disturbed the timing of meals. We may believe that the only consequences of ill-timed meals are acidity and gastroenteritis, but actually, the human body functions by a system of energy flow between organs. Ancient scriptures of naturopathy and manuscripts of Ayurveda hold references to the organ clock. Argan clock Greetings We have been living healthily since our childhood and we have been trying to improve our health First, we were working on the organ clock for 12 to 24 hours during the peak hours During that time, in the name of the place we were not given toxin, we took the blood chemistry and converted to acidity in the state of the body When we converted to acidity, we could not get out of the body so we lost the auto-immune system of the body When we lost the auto-immune system, the cells in the brain were new Now, the cells in the brain have started to generate more storage For this, in our culture and in our life when we are living healthily the time and health are in good health In their life there is no disease we are only using the health We have given time for 12 to 24 hours It is very important to say that the liver releases all the blood and you dialysis and to make the blood chemistry stand out it is a very important time So, in the evening from 10 o'clock at 3 to 4 o'clock whoever is sleeping well they will not get any disease So, blood auto- dialysis process If you want to sleep at 10 o'clock you have to eat at 7 o'clock If you sleep after 3 o'clock the liver will use full energy This is the reason why auto-immune system has lost all the energy So, now if you can give medicine at any time if you take medicine you will not get any health If you take medicine the body will die So, for that medicine In the ancient times in the ancient times we started to use amazing medicines in the ancient times You can now see that almost every ancient Indian tradition has a scientific explanation behind it Some of them are deeply spiritual and very much beyond the understanding of the common man because of which they were linked to the concept of blind belief After years of experience and observation our forefathers have drafted these traditions to be imbibed into societal living and lifestyles to ensure a healthy peaceful living So, let's start looking deeper Let's start truly appreciating the riches we have been provided with Let us look at our customs with a positive curiosity After all isn't it our duty as a future generation to carry them forward? Very interesting Yeah, it's I'm a huge skeptic of everything of people, of anything I tend to think I was telling my wife this the other day because I did an audition and my manager was like tell me what you think he wrote something and I think he's lying to me but I assume I think everybody is a lying to me My brain has always worked It's not anything that he's given me any reason to think that he's lying to me It's the way you fry things I don't know why I voted as a kid I was like, yeah they're probably lying I probably did terrible They're probably just not trying to hurt my feelings That's how much of a skeptic I am I'm assuming if you're telling me something you're probably lying to me But anyways that's cool because superstitions were not just India but anyway every culture has this stuff but it's cool when sometimes the science behind them is actually proving because actually ancient civilizations and older cultures were really smart because they didn't have we had the toothbrush 100 something years ago that was probably invented what did they brush their teeth with? They didn't have medicine so there's been science for centuries and so they've had reasons for not always some of them are just either religious or just because they thought this worked and it didn't but it's cool to see when sometimes there's actual scientific evidence behind some of these things and I'm very there's two camps to this on the one that's really important I think it's really important for people to see especially westerners to see eastern traditions because far too often a western mindset will look at those things and make the immediate assumption that that is pure superstition without ever investigating the actual reason for what they do probably what you use for yoga very much so but every single one of those things in the mind of a westerner to look at it and go that is just ancient superstition ever really looking into it and recognizing you know what there's actually some science behind that and there's actually some real faith behind that the other camp is that there are some things you should look at and go you know what there really isn't any science behind that that is an empty superstition and we're only doing it because we've done it and when we question it we're told so both camps but most especially in the west I think far too often westerners will assume they're the more advanced culture and they'll look at things from the east and they'll either go one of two ways they'll fully dive in and go they've been completely enlightened because they went to the east and they'll abandon everything west or they won't even look at the east and say you guys live in the dark ages and we're way ahead of you this is really good yeah it's quite interesting and what America thinks they know about the east you just you just saw something today I'm not even going to say her name conservative I guess pundit you would call her but the kind of person who like that guy who said it was in London who said all Indian foods are bland yes but somebody who they're just they're stupid but anyway they said that Harry Styles I think was on a cover photo shoot he was in a dress and they were like the left or the Democrats I guess in America are trying to destroy masculinity apparently she's forgotten about you know David Bowie or many other famous artists from America who that is their style and then she said at least they understand the need for strong men and I said well I guess you don't know them very well and then posted numerous photos of because in South India I don't know what they're called you know they have the the things that they pull up all the time that if a man wore that now that would be considered a dress in America Ranveer has obviously broken gender stereotypes the warriors not just in India in China or skirt like I don't know what the technical name for them is but as warriors so you're saying they're not masculine right because their your current definition is only women wear dresses right and you could categorically say that a kilt isn't masculine it's just absurd and it does tie into exactly this type of thing where ignorance is typically the birthplace of bigotry and once you begin to learn about another culture you recognize a couple of things not the least of which is there's way deeper meaning behind this than I gave them credit for they actually had thought this through and it's really easy to be an armchair critic about something that you know nothing about so this was very informative let us know more informative videos we can react to down below


The interaction that we had with the Prime Minister was just amazing because the intent with which the Prime Minister was listening to every single input and the recommendation from the people in the meeting was very deliberate and was very clear that there are big changes coming in India. From an investment standpoint we are extremely bullish about India because of the steps that the government is taking and because of the entrepreneurial energy and the environment that Startup India has created. We believe that some of the best global companies in the world are going to come from India and India will be the shining innovation hub in the world of tomorrow. So I'm very excited from the meeting and I believe that these are the kinds of interactions that really inspire us to bring more capital to India and to back up the great startup entrepreneurs of the country. Bharat is where the action is. The Bharat customer deserves better and we are going to build the future innovation hub in Bharat. We plan to invest several billions of dollars in India. We already have about five billion dollars invested in India and I wouldn't be surprised if in the next 10 years we invest about 10 to 15 billion dollars in India because this is one of the most critical destinations for us globally.
