Over desire of distinguishing oneself

 No. 1 never desire to to be no 1 as it is a consequence. We have learned from Ramayan that even lord Shree Ram an incarnation of Lord Shree Hari Vishnu never showed his true powers except for hours of need. To be or not to be, it does not matter as long as works get done. Work is for long term spiritual upheaval and recognition of ones' true identity. Trying too hard to get and to be forceful to distinguish oneself is the sign one is moving away from spiritual journey. As atharva veda and upanishads declared oneness is the sign of knowing true reality. By force, one in greed of power and accumulating wealth by so called superiority forget to embed qualities like efficiency and effectiveness to product but start to make this body like material product. The most pathetic way among those schemes is to take support of big names. Meritocracy, it seems, name given to certain privileged class to justify their unjust deeds. I have no problem for them enjoying power or wealth, I just don't like their nonsense claim of merits achieved on the heap of bodies of so many humans in case their parents earned wealth by way of black economies. Wealth bestowed by society in honor of one's contribution to society is always a sacred thing. snatching a wealth and calling or labelling oneself distinguished is nothing but a poor joke. 

I have never seen a man of height begging for separate treatment nor I have seen any supernatural powers like Sun ever stopping itself from doing its dharma. Blackmailing people in the name of superiority and calling oneself distinguished is another harmful consequence of this approach to life.

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...
