Etymology[edit]
Idea of Origin[edit]
“Makrand” emerges from a quest to reimagine the concept of a ‘newspaper’. Newspaper today, quite simply, is a medium of ‘narrating’ the image - flipping its content at highest speed before it is even absorbed. In our era, the process of actively shaping history is largely driven by the power of imagery. Its narration steers our everyday perspectives, underscoring its significant role in modern understandings.
Vision of Makrand[edit]
However, we seem to have forgotten that our world is not solely political, economic, or recreational. It’s also a vibrant, living entity brimming with personal stories, poems, fictions, scientific discoveries, architectural wonders, ecosystems, cultures, ideas, myths, philosophies, signs, symbols, and various other forms of knowledge. Every day brings new narratives that eclipse the previous ones, blurring the lines between narration, information, and knowledge. In such a whirlwind of rhetorical construction, the significance of conceptual understanding often gets lost. This phenomenon contributes to the proliferation of the world’s image as a snapshot in our modern existence. Consequently, our attempt to comprehend the world as an image (whether political, historical, social, economic etc.) reflects the fleeting nature of self-definition. In our era, this is often subsumed into a subjective impasse. In many respects, Makrand is an endeavor to reintroduce the objectivity of self-consciousness into a public discourse that is gradually fading from our ‘picture thinking consciousness’. We acknowledge that it’s perhaps impossible for any philosophical tradition to articulate a worldview without empirically engaging with temporal canons of knowledge. Given these empirical considerations, Makrand serves as a nexus between the ordinary and the extraordinary, initiating an exploratory dialogue of the Śabda tradition through a newspaper.
