Death and Truth

 When you see a train of people going after a dead body to perform last ritual, you may feel sad that someone left. But what we fail to realize is one day we have to meet the same fate. 

I use to think that I will know the truth and truth will cure the death and people will be able to come back from deathbed. My all time favorite SAVITRI by Sri Aurobindo depicts how Savitri take back her dead husband. Longing for knowing truth with the help of Physics, Mathematics then turning face towards religious texts, nothing satisfied me. Arts and Law helped to understand human necessities and necessities to manage its activities. 

Yet what is death? I don't know my birth and by blessing of God I think I will not know my death too. Then this madness called Life, a mass packed with limitless desires running here and there for life, own life, and some evils running towards others life. I don't know why Poets said soul will not die, and soul being the ultimate that know or for which this body function but we see it dies. To say soul is ultimate may be not that tangible. 

Fortunately I came to realize that the only truth is Death, may not be easy to face though. All human efforts are to postpone it. Human can't eliminate death of their own forget about others. But the mother earth is so generous she gave power to postpone it to those who make use of earth intelligently. Like the Bhagavat said Mother Earth is the Cow, Brahmin milk 4 vedas out of it and so on. Just by being Sanyasi and waiting for death as it is the ultimate reality will not make human any good. It is the virtue for which we must strive and virtue is in fighting the death till last breath. All those who strive for postponing the death are called Civilized society and those who wait are just like animals. We may disagree with life but it is what it is in existence, rest are mere theories or madness.

Sustainable development of Life

 XYZ whatever be the technicalities of a life process, the origin is, as I am convinced at this point of time, nothing but wish of Nature or who create the nature. The sole purpose of life is to consume itself. Consume is really the worst word in this context. Let me say to observe the beauty of itself by itself. Hence, we are designed in such a way with such and such purposes by the ultimate guiding truth which is ever full of knowledge of all kind. It can do anything (proof: various form of lives), it is evolved or it is ordained by truth can be a debate. Base of life is nature or life (especially human) struggle with nature to evolve itself. First one provide possibilities of re-creation of more sophisticated or more adaptable life suitable to the nature at that point of time, second is more egoist approach to life and claim nature as nothing but inert objects which are subject to enjoyment or preservation for enjoyment in future (as now discussed in the name of sustainable deve...

Averaging practice in stock market and Liquidity problem in Banking

Investors in equity market (secondary) are quite familiar with averaging practice of prices. When a stock of higher cost was already purchased but the prices drop down, then purchasing stocks at lower prices (must be probable to gain some increment in those latest prices) will average the per unit cost and given increment in latest prices but lower than previous prices till make loss over previously purchased stock lesser loss making. Now, thinking the institutional capacity of banks and financial institutions and production and distribution capacity of national economy, given flood of remittance, there must be a lag in mobilization of funds through banks. Thereby keeping interest rate at lower side till national economy's capacity to produce and distribute gets increased. However, let's imagine a scenario where funds are ever demanded and loans are distributed at higher cost. Deposit rates are increased in the name of liquidity problem or liquidity premium is so high that retu...

Usha

I bow down to mother Vindhyabasini/Brindabasini/Bindubasini whose grace and affection alone uplift unbearable pain of this life/ignorance. Nobody but Guru Gorakhnath is my Guru but am not that fortunate to get knowledge from himself. Neither read anything written by him.  During the discussion with few wise men it suddenly occurred or reiterate the already obtained knowledge of unreal nature of thoughts. However, this just helped to connect Usha with Savitur and once again ignite enthusiasm to write meaning of Gayatri Mantra. First line is dedicated to three kind of Jagat or realities excluding Om (which is not a wise thing to do but Om itself contains 3 Jagat and one last supreme reality so it is waste to discuss other line after explaining Om). First one is almost 16 hours a day i.e. waking state where we gather all information and act upon them. Second is dream state which is in its concrete form is 8 hours a day, unknown processing of information gathered during waking state. 3...
