Evil of ownership in the form of wealth and bliss in the form of Capital

Wealth is accumulation of things that are held for appreciation of price or for security reason whatever political reason they hold. Wealth is also that part which is not actively circulating in the economy or in the optimum uses form. Let me call all surplus owned by anybody [here only rightfully earned surplus I am discussing and not about any untouchable immoral goods which can not be termed as wealth - only illegal or immoral or sinful possession can be termed] owned as per legal system as wealth. 
Capital is that seed which can grow into tree producing more seeds. Hence, capital is also in the form of ownership of person but is actively running and producing itself.
Since, earth is obtained by human at free of cost material here and there stored for human discovery, anybody claiming ownership over earth is a mere fool. However, for creative production process and saving human lives, concept of ownership is best discovered by human mind. 
However, this occupation of materials termed by ownership is available over both wealth and capital. Ownership over wealth can be very harsh over other fellow human citizen as whomsoever control the idle wealth has minimum possible utility over that thing, hence free to utilize by human metrics in whatever evil intention they want to fulfill and equally so for good of human society. But for wealth, it is more of the holders discretion and is not obliged much by need of the society at cost of society. Since, the society is collective phenomenon, wealth is also collective one, since it is collective thing, its purpose should be for maximizing collective utility too. As long as things are in capital formation or anything that the society wants to cultivate for society, ownership is bliss. Time ownership become wealth it turns out to be individual thing serving individual purposes. 
Hence, capital or seed is the bliss of human lives but wealth is evil or potential evil of the human society.

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...

Dharma - Nyaya

(To clear my thought process ) Dharma is that which bears, that which provides stability to a thing, a person, or a nation in motion. Nyaya is specific to the individual; A person who abides in Dharma may still be affected by the Adharma of another who fails to uphold it then the State/Society must inject Nyaya to tha specific person or group or even state. Jurisprudence (in my limited understanding and information ) could not ditinguish between these two concepts and confused it with morale, divine rule, command, society, economics etc. These two are related, but Dharma is what guides the Naya but here it has nothing to do with legal system, it is independent and move with truth, whereas Naya alone requires legal system. Hence, Jurisprudence has long divorced its essence of Dharma (somehow natural school using reason could hover around truth) and focus on legal system alone. ..................

Vedas- The Ultimate -Darshan lets not say Philosophy it will be injustice to Great Sages

Vedas -Nobody knows what is it, it is praised by Sages of later dates hence people still praise it -I have not read any piece of paper (except the Secret of Vedas by Sri Aurobindo) which relates Vedas to Pshychology (which I think is still inadaquate (daring to challenge legend in my own foolishness)). 1.Some recites it like parrots 2. Some criticize it like Vedic sages were just fancy poets with lots of imagination 3. Some give it credit to later Vedantic development as part of Methods of Knowledge, which means Vedas are cave men and Vedanta were modern men 4. Some laugh about it since they worship Sun Moon lightening air etc. etc. Let me go one by one 1. reciting with full faith and accuracy have some benefits but it will limit to the level of brain only and that too for soothing purposes and other, which will produces mechanical results (results are bound to happen) 2. too poor may be who translated and criticizes it must lack knowledge of Vedangas, they were expert in musical no...
