Searching for Shah Rukh Khan
"Mahdi saw what only an eye merciful to human suffering could have glimpsed. Eternal India was before him a vast expanse where followers compete, but no one emerges from the land of gods and superstitions disappointed." But the same merciful eye could not ignore the opposite of what modernity has brought to this ancient, ancient expanse. It glimpsed the new paganism, the idolatry of the minions of global capital and its ghosts who drive legions of people into running the mills of post-humanist modernity and the worship of the new technical gods in a poverty-stricken Delhi. Billionaires, on the one hand, and on the other, are idol worshipers who turn faith into human warfare, financed by the hashish trade and booby-trapping the shrines of God's saints. In between, there were those who died because of the coconuts that fell on their heads from the tops of its towering palm trees. The prostitution of misery, the sidewalk hotels, and the disco girls who hide short clothes that they wear when they go in and change them when they go out." D. Muhammad Al-Makhzanji
