I made a trip to Tenafly for one of my old roommate’s wedding. Aunty is the stereotypical Jewish mother, loves to chitchat and was telling me about how her and uncle recently visited Bharat to see safaris and the Taj Mahal.

Being in Jersey, I’ve been thinking about my variety of uncles recently, the Wh@t5@pp kind.

Vimanas. The supposed claims of flying chariots and cities.

Then I thought about the fight Episode 3 where Obi-Wan is facing Anakin on Mustafar.

Applying Occam’s razor. How likely was it that the ancient Sanskrit writers were simply describing people or societies with the high ground?

Not a thesis or argument, just an idea. Yet I’m sure somehow an uncle will take offense.
