/* ═══ site-bg.css — the board's full ambient background, on every reading page ═══
   So an article feels like it's still floating inside the main page: the drifting
   particle field (canvas.scene, drawn by story-scene.js), the faint Krishna +
   life imagery (bg-collage), the portrait veil glow, and the mantra/markets/code
   text columns (veil-streams, drawn by site-bg.js). Self-contained: works whether
   the page loads lab.css or reader.css.
