Virtue never has been as respectable as money-Mark Twain

भजो रे भैया राम गो वंद हर ।


राम गो वंद हर भजो रे भैया राम गो वंद हर ॥
जप तप साधन न हं कछु लागत, खरचत न हं गठर ॥
संतत संपत सख ु के कारन, जासे भल ू पर ॥
कहत कबीर राम नह ं जा मख ु , ता मख
ु धलू भर ॥

A Franciscan Benediction 
 
May God bless us with discomfort at easy answers, half-truths, and superficial 
relationships, so that we may live deep within our hearts. 
 
May God bless us with anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so 
that we may work for justice, freedom and peace. 
 
May God bless us with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, 
starvation and war, so that we may reach out our hands to comfort them and turn 
their pain into joy. 
 
And may God bless us with enough foolishness to believe that we can make a 
difference in this world, so that we can do what others claim cannot be done. 
 
Amen. 

As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so
long must we take this examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was contrived, much
so-called education would disappear, and no one would be a penny the stupider.
-E. M. Forster

Anxiety is a sympathetic antipathy and an antipathetic sympathy. Whoever has learned to be


anxious in the right way has learned the ultimate- Kirekgard
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
— Confucius

Despite all our rage, we’re still just a rat in a cage.

“Science describes accurately from outside, poetry describes accurately from inside. Science
explicates, poetry implicates. Both celebrate what they describe.”
-Viva Le Guin

who consider themselves value investors are going to have to shift from exploiting “fear and greed”,
and instead look more closely at taking advantage of
the pricing inefficiencies that are being created by the growing amount of money controlled by
rules-based ETFs and other passive funds. - - FT
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in 
him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the 
Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of 
God abides forever.​John 2:15  
 
John Maynard Keynes: The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. 

मेरे तो ग रधर गोपाल दस ू रो न कोई।

the fundamental attribution error (FAE), also known as the correspondence bias or attribution 
effect, is the claim that in contrast to interpretations of their own behavior, people place undue 
emphasis on internal characteristics of the agent (character or intention), rather than external 
factors, in explaining other people's behavior. The effect has been described as "the tendency to 
believe that what people do reflects who they are" 
 
Most of the luxuries, and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable, but 
positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind-

Most men, even in this comparatively free country, through mere ignorance and 
mistake, are so occupied with the factitious cares and superfluously coarse labors of 
life that its finer fruits cannot be plucked by them

Among the sentiments of most powerful operation upon the human heart, and most highly 
honorable to the human character, are those of veneration for our forefathers, and of love for our 
posterity.

The middle-income trap is the situation in which a country's growth slows after reaching middle 
income levels. The transition to high-income levels then seemingly becomes unattainable. 
 
Defenestration​: The term originates from two incidents in history, both occurring in Prague. In 1419, ​seven town 
officials were thrown from the Town Hall window​, precipitating the Hussite War. In 1618, two Imperial governors and 
their secretary were tossed from Prague Castle, sparking the Thirty Years War. These incidents, particularly in 1618, were 
referred to as the Defenestrations of Prague and gave rise to the term and the concept. 

​psychological distance​—that is, gaps between yourself and other people (social distance), the 
present and the future (temporal distance), your physical location and faraway places (spatial 
distance), or imagining something and experiencing it (experiential distance).

We seek rich, satisfying lives, and richness goes along with complexity. Our favorite songs, stories,
games, and books are rich, satisfying, and complex. We need complexity even while we crave
simplicity… Some complexity is desirable. When things are too simple, they are also viewed as dull and
uneventful. Psychologists have demonstrated that people prefer a middle level of complexity: too simple
and we are bored, too complex and we are confused. Moreover, the ideal level of complexity is a moving
target, because the more expert we become at any subject, the more complexity we prefer. This holds
true whether the subject is music or art, detective stories or historical novels, hobbies or movies.--
Living with Complexity

The Enlightenment started with essentially philosophical insights spread by a new technology. 
Our period is moving in the opposite direction. It has generated a potentially dominating 
technology in search of a guiding philosophy. - end of enlightenment (Atlantic)  

Simplicity is a great virtue but it requires hard work to achieve it and education to 
appreciate it. And to make matters worse: complexity sells better.

The ​Celtic Tree of Life​ symbol has many different interpretations. The Tree of Life is a
representation harmony and balance in nature. The Tree of Life, to the Celts, symbolizes
strength, a long life, and wisdom. The tree also represents rebirth, as it will lose its leaves during
the fall season, hibernate throughout the winter, and will be reborn again once spring arrives.
The Celts also believed that they actually came from trees, and considered them magical, living
beings. Trees were said to guard the land and acted as a doorway into the spirit world.

No heresy can persist for very long: either it must triumph, and then it will form a new

The​ Lake Wobegon effect​, a natural human tendency to overestimate one's capabilities.. The 
characterization of the fictional location, where "all the women are strong, all the men are good 
looking, and all the children are above average," has been used to describe a real and pervasive 
human tendency to overestimate one's achievements and capabilities in relation to others 

serious investor’s time is better spent analysing industry structures, understanding businesses,
growth and capital characteristics and ensuring that one gets in at a reasonable price to protect
against analytical mistakes. Unfortunately, this skill set can’t be developed by watching business

In philosophy, supervenience is a relation used to describe cases where (roughly speaking) a 
system's upper-level properties are determined by its lower-level properties. Some philosophers 
hold that the world is structured into a kind of hierarchy of properties, where the higher-level 
properties supervene on the lower-level properties 
 
The ​collision theory ​states that when suitable particles of the reactant hit each other, only a certain
percentage of the collisions cause any noticeable or significant chemical change; these successful
changes are called successful collisions. The successful collisions have enough energy, also known
as ​activation energy​, at the moment of impact to break the preexisting bonds and form all new
bonds. This results in the products of the reaction. Increasing the concentration of the reactant
particles or raising the temperature, thus bringing about more collisions and therefore many more
successful collisions, increases the rate of reaction

Principal Skinner notes that the town's trains are running on "metric time" while looking at an analog
clock numbered 1-10. Metric time does exist, however it is simply a way of using the second with metric
prefixes, and cannot be used to determine the time of day.
Look not mournfully into the past, it comes not back again. Wisely improve the present, it is thine. Go
forth to meet the shadowy future without fear and with a manly heart. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A situation when increased interest rates lead to a reduction in private investment spending such that it
dampens the initial increase of total investment spending is called ​crowding out effect​.

The ​Base effect​ relates to inflation in the corresponding period of the previous year, if the inflation rate
was too low in the corresponding period of the previous year, even a smaller rise in the Price Index will
arithmetically give a high rate of inflation now.

After the [first] World War practically everything was taken away from Germany in the way of materiel. 
So when Germany rearmed, it was necessary to produce a complete set of materiel for the troops. As a 
result, Germany has an army equipped with the most modern weapons that could be turned out. That is a 
situation that has never occurred before in the history of the world.- George Marshall ​[... T ​ hat wasn’t the
case for the Allies at the start of the war. When the war began in 1939, U.S. Army troops carried 1903
Springfield rifles. France had sluggish World War I-era tanks. Britain, at one point, pulled 19th century
cannons out of museums to prepare for a German invasion​… Expertise is great, but it has a bad side effect. It

Veer Teja or Tejaji was legendary Rajasthani folk hero. He is considered one of the major eleven

man, striving for respect and recognition, who is willing to sacrifice everything in order maintain tribal
conceptions of honour.

Praxeology​: ​ with the action axiom (Action axioms are of the form "If a condition holds, then the following
should be done") as the starting point, it is possible to draw conclusions about human behavior that are
both objective and universal. For example, the notion that humans engage in acts of choice implies that
they have preferences, and this must be true for anyone who exhibits intentional behavior.

Unscrupulous diner's dilemma


A classic example of the tyranny of small decisions is the tragedy of the commons,
described by Garrett Hardin in 1968[5] as a situation where a number of herders graze
cows on a commons. The herders each act independently in what they perceive to be
their own rational self-interest, ultimately depleting their shared limited resource,
even though it is clear that it is not in any herder's long-term interest for this to
happen.[6]

l'esprit de l'escalier:A French phrase meaning "the wit of the staircase"; a perfect witty remark, retort, or rejoinder
that occurs to one after the fact or too late to be used. (Also written as "l'esprit d'escalier.")

We humans tend to think we’re basing our beliefs on solid evidence when we’re really
just cherry-picking anecdotes or plain telling stories to support our existing
beliefs. We think we’re making evidence-based decisions, but often we’re doing it
backwards -Kanheman
​Graphical proof - Chitrabhanu 

The European University comes before our vision, full-grown. That is why we cannot think of a University except
as a fully developed institution. The sight of my neighbour, with a sturdy son to help and support him, may naturally
provoke in my mind an envious wish to have a son myself. But if my wish be to have a full-grown son all at once,
then, in my hurry, I may stumble upon somebody who is fully grown up, but who is no son to me at all. An
impatient craving for result and an unfortunate weakness for imitation have led us to cherish just such an unnatural
desire for a National University, full-fledged from its very birth. So that most of our endeavours become fruitless, or
else the only fruit they produce is of the class of lacquer-ware fruit, which may rival the real thing in size and shape
and colouring, but which one has to beware of biting, much more of taking into the stomach. These solidly complete
Universities, over which our country is brooding, are like hard- boiled eggs from which you cannot expect chickens
to come out.
..I quite understand that food and the utensils to eat it out of are both needful to man. But where there is a shortage
of food, a parsimony in regard to utensils also becomes necessary. To make the paraphernalia of our Education so
expensive that Education itself becomes difficult of attainment would be like squandering all one's money in buying
money-bags.
… We in the East have had to arrive at our own solution of the problem of life. We have, as far as possible, made
our food and clothing unburdensome; and this our very climate has taught us to do. We require openings in the walls
more than the walls themselves. Light and air have more to do with our wearing apparel than the weavers' loom. The
sun makes for us the heat- producing factors which elsewhere are required from food-stuffs. All these natural
advantages have moulded our life to a particular shape, which I cannot believe it will be profitable to ignore in the
case of our education.
...I do not seek to glorify poverty. But simplicity is of greater price than the appendages of luxury. The simplicity of
which I speak is not merely the effect of a lack of superfluity: it is one of the signs of perfection. When this dawns
on mankind, the unhealthy fog which now besmirches civilization will be lifted. It is for lack of this simplicity that
the necessaries of life have become so rare and costly. .
..Most things in the civilized world, such as eating and merry-making ...occupy more than their legitimate space.
Much of their burden is needless; and in bearing it civilized man may be showing great strength, but little skill. ..
But though our physicians are now practising in every town and village and hamlet of the country, and though many
of them are of good repute and making money, all this extensive experience of theirs has not resulted in any new
theory, or great fact, being added to the science of medicine.
.. We boast of the up-to-dateness of our education; we forget that the mission of all education is to lead us beyond
the present date.
..Communication of life can only be through a living agency. And culture, which is the life of mind, can only be
imparted through man to man. Book learning, or scriptural texts, may merely make us pedants. They are static and
quantitative; they accumulate and are hoarded up under strict guards. Culture grows and moves and multiplies itself
in life.
..Our education to us is like the carriage to a horse; a bondage, the dragging of which merely serves to provide it
with food and shelter in the stable of its master; the horse has not the same freedom of relationship with the carriage
as its owner, and therefore the carriage ever remains for it an imposition of beggarly necessity.
- Meenaxi Mukherjee on Anand Math (epw 1982)

“Man,” Sartre wrote, “is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is
responsible for everything he does.“

...When words are used equivocally, I receive them in either sense; when they
are metaphorical, I adopt them in their primitive acceptation.
...WORDS ARE THE DAUGHTERS OF EARTH, AND THAT THINGS ARE THE SONS OF HEAVEN.
Language is only the instrument of science, and words are but the signs of
ideas.
...Our knowledge of the northern literature is so scanty, that of words
undoubtedly Teutonick the original is not always to be found in any ancient
language; and I have therefore inserted Dutch or German substitutes, which I
consider not as radical but parallel, not as the parents, but sisters of the
English.
...So far have I been from any care to grace my pages with modern decorations,
that I have studiously endeavoured to collect examples and authorities from the
writers before the restoration, whose works I regard as the wells of English
undefiled, as the pure sources of genuine diction. Our language, for almost a
century, has, by the concurrence of many causes, been gradually departing from
its original Teutonick character, and deviating towards a Gallick structure and
phraseology, from which it ought to be our endeavour to recal it, by making our
ancient volumes the ground-work of stile, admitting among the additions of
later times, only such as may supply real deficiencies, such as are readily
adopted by the genius of our tongue, and incorporate easily with our native
idioms.
...Nor are all words which are not found in the vocabulary, to be lamented as
omissions. Of the laborious and mercantile part of the people, the diction is
in a great measure casual and mutable; many of their terms are formed for some
temporary or local convenience, and though current at certain times and places,
are in others utterly unknown. This fugitive cant(​hypocritical and sanctimonious talk,
typically of a moral, religious, or political nature​), which is always in a state of increase
or decay, cannot be regarded as any part of the durable materials of a
language, and therefore must be suffered to perish with other things unworthy
of preservation.

Respect is earned, not conferred. It is not a door prize. Equal respect is a contradiction in 
terms, since the very concept of respect implies an inequality of esteem and regard. All may be 
entitled to a common decency but not all can receive a higher relative ranking. -Thomas sowell 
 
In statistical hypothesis testing, a type I error is the incorrect rejection of a true 
null hypothesis (a "false positive"), while a type II error is incorrectly retaining a 
false null hypothesis (a "false negative").More simply stated, a type I error is the 
(false) detection of an effect that is not present, while a type II error is the failure 
to detect an effect that is present.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that 
they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude - Nietzsche 

Truth is, love and marriage would lose much of their allure if there were no reciprocation 
tendency among partners. By loving, we literally may become loved.Displaying 
generosity can be a powerful way to advance a relationship by setting up implicit 
expectations of compliance from the other person.Perhaps the key to genuine 
relationships lies at least partially in each party being kind without expectations 

 
Hochschild says that both conservative and liberals have "deep stories" — about who 
they are, and what their values are. Deep stories don't need to be completely accurate, 
but they have to feel true. They're the stories we tell ourselves to capture our hopes, 
pride, disappointments, fears, and anxieties.

all for want of care about a horse-shoe nail.

Marx identified three "cardinal facts" of capitalist production:
1- Concentration of means of production in a few hands, whereby they cease to appear
as the property of the immediate labourers and turn into social production capacities;

2- The organisation of labour into social labour: through cooperation, division of labour
and the uniting of labour with the natural sciences;

3- The creation of the world market.

commodity fetishism:
Commodity fetishism is the illusion emerging from the centrality of private property in
capitalism, which then determines not only how people work and interact, but also how
they perceive reality and understand social change.
 
 
All baking powders contain sodium bicarbonate (just like baking soda). But baking 
powder also contains two acids. One of these acids is called monocalcium phosphate. 
Monocalcium phosphate doesn’t react with the sodium bicarbonate while it’s dry. But 
as soon as the baking powder is stirred into a wet dough or batter, the two ingredients 
begin to react, releasing bubbles of CO2 and causing chemical leavening. 
 
But to extend the chemical leavening process, baking powder also contains a second 
acid, either sodium acid pyrophosphate or sodium aluminum sulfate. Neither of these 
acids react with sodium bicarbonate until they are both: A) wet (i.e., stirred into the 
batter) and B) hot. 
 
Theorem — a mathematical statement that is proved using rigorous mathematical

Both herons and cranes are big grey birds, but there are some very distinct differences. The
heron flies with its neck bent and head tucked in so appears short necked, with long trailing
legs. The crane flies with neck outstretched like a goose and but also trails its long legs
behind.

Great egrets are a little smaller than the white-phase great blue heron, but the real 
giveaway is the color of the legs. Great egrets have black legs while white-phase great 
blue herons have much lighter legs. Herons also have slightly heavier beaks and 
“shaggier” feathers on their breast
