Kantian Justice or Upanishadic Justice

 Depending upon ChatGPT heavily with little bit of reading on Doctrine of Rights and Doctrine of Virtue in past and with deep desire to appreciate Kants morality but equally unsatisfied soul I am making some points:

1. Universal one can be ascribed to only one i.e. Ultimate or Brahaman to which we could not even say truth, God or anything as it is free from any qualities (Nirgunna) and name is representation of quality,

2. Everything other than that is in Law of their own,

3. When everything else including Human being who desires to establish set of laws for themselves also hold different qualities and hence their own Law,

4. Universalizing everything else is contrary to the idea of universe itself,

5. Hence, to base Law and Morality to universal reasoning or universalizing the situation is infeasible 

for eg. Doctor operates x's eyes and x lost them, now universalizing behavior of Doctor what if everyone operate in that method and loose their eyes, it is not feasible hence the action is in appropriate. But every new tech or method has ever been tested and tried and so many people benefited from it their Kant will fail to apply this universal reasoning. Doctor with his/her best effort may not be able to cure eyes, it can never be universalize. For every time, time is changing and hence the reality of nature. 

6. How can universal law play role? Upanishad has simple model only that which has no quality is universal and everything else is in aspiration to reach or to know or get closer proximity with it. Everything that is in line with this action is morale and law should uphold it. Here, non-violence is not fear of destruction in human civilization nor utility nor anything else, since origin of every being is form that one and all are aspiring to that one, to have oneself is not in nature hence it is right thing to do by not harming others considering themselves like one in aspiration. Whatever I wish for myself in this path of supreme realization should be and would be wished for others as they are comrade of this realization. 

7. Arguments are weak against Kant but clearly there is progress from insight to ideas is beautiful.

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...

Hindu Jurisprudence- Smriti And some property law

I just don’t have the energy to write against the popular teaching (perhaps I have read the wrong books) that Hindu jurisprudence is contained within the Smriti, mainly the Manusmriti, and the property systems of the two schools — Mitakshara and Dayabhaga (I forget which region each school belongs to). But these are laws, not jurisprudence. I admit I do not know the subject of jurisprudence deeply — such a tragedy — but it seems to me these were laws made for the time and place according to the wisdom of the sages of that era. The Smriti writers themselves clearly said that the source of their understanding is the Veda. So, anyone who wants to understand exactly what truth Hindus hold must study the Vedas. Those who cannot may go through the Upanishads (major texts distilled by sages to teach the essence of the Jñāna part of the Veda). Those who still find that difficult may turn to the Mahabharata (which is in itself a “great battle” to understand), or they may study Mīmāṁsā, Nyāya-śā...

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...
