music producer in 2002 as ‘almost the godfather of pop’, Johann Pachelbel was the veritable SD Burman of late 17th century Europe. His Canon in D, (over)familiar to many of us from far too many wedding scenes in romcoms, is a piece that gathers layers, lifting itself as it glides along. The music is startlingly simple, three violins pressing out 28 varieties of the same melody over the bass line. Pachelbel’s cyclical tune unfolds like delicate sonic origami. The forth-and-back is calming, rousing, as if the world has turned to music.

The forth-and-back is calming, rousing, as if the world has turned to music. Pachelbel's most famous tune was immensely popular during his time. It then fell into obscurity… until an arrangement recorded by French conductor Jean-Francois Paillard in 1968 got 20th century ears pricked up.

Mother's Day is a beloved global holiday celebrated to honor mothers, motherhood, and maternal bonds. The tradition of honoring mothers has roots in ancient Greek and Roman societies, where special events were held to pay tribute to motherly deities such as Rhea and Cybele. These festivities included feasting, making offerings, and conducting ceremonies to celebrate motherhood and fertility. The modern concept of Mother's Day, as we know it today, is largely credited to Anna Jarvis, an American activist who campaigned for a dedicated day to honor mothers. After her mother's passing in 1905, Jarvis advocated for a national holiday to recognize mothers and their contributions to society. In 1908, Jarvis organized the first official Mother's Day celebration at a church in West Virginia. She distributed white carnations, her mother's favorite flowers, as a tribute to all mothers. The idea gained popularity, and in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson officially designated the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day, a national holiday in the United States.

Both these people are changing the world in their own way — subverting conventional technology and discourse. These follow the saviour myths of monotheistic mythologies. Understandable when one traces their roots, via South Africa and East Europe. Their imagination makes no room for Jainism, the faith from South Asia of some of the world's most successful mercantile and banking communities, who worked with Buddhist kings, Jain kings, Hindu kings, Muslim kings, British imperialists and even patriotic and nationalistic governments, without ever incurring the wrath of a mob.
