Does Money Make You Happy?

Hindu ( ॐ ) depiction of Ganga ( गङ्गा ) at Kalighat ( কালীঘাট ) Does Money Make You Happy? Saturday – May 23, 2026 H aving or not having... Perhaps that should be the question? At least if you are a modern man. At least if you are a man that operates under the material assumption of functionality ... You empty, poor soul! Shame on you!     Look, that last part is out of scope I know, but money is important, at least that is the world we have to contend with, not that the creator, read " Who or What is God? ", intended for this, but then again we have to understand the world from the point of view of the Cyclical order if we intend to actually make something of this all; if we actually intend to make a clear statement about whether or not money should make you happy. It would be perfectly, indeed it is perfectly, understandable that most men would become more happy if they suddenly, that sudden part is important here, became more wealthy, but the fact that this crude and tem...

Inheritance

Thai ( หนุมาน ) iconography of Hanuman ( हनुमान् ) From the Ramakien ( รามเกียรติ์ ) Inheritance | Friday – May 22, 2026 I nheritance is one fairly controversial subject, especially in the wake of multiculturalism ... The fact is of course that the issue or matter of inheritance, depending on your view, tends to vary across cultures: in some cultures there is indeed and has indeed been, at least for some time, a practice of dividing up the inheritance across each eligible member, in a "fair" or egalitarian way, but in many cultures this is simply not the practice today nor was it in the past.      First of all, let us understand the matter of inheritance from a purely Western and action oriented point of view : in the West, the political objective of egalitarianism makes a lot of claims for itself , but it is true though, that Christendom has a practice of dividing the inheritance between men and women equally, and to that extend it would perhaps be quite right to invok...

One Year Anniversary! | FREESTYLE

Ethereal Insights Logotype 🙏 जब जागो तब सवेरा 🙏 One Year Anniversary! Thursday – May 21, 2026 T his will be a little bit of a different post, if you will, because I have now been writing posts on this page ( this blog ) for a year, and I believe that it would be a good idea to celebrate this, just a little bit. Yes, I believe in small celebrations and that certainly includes this webpage, because there is really nothing to celebrate when you look at the grand scheme of things: the world is more depraved in 2026 than what it was in 2025; yes every new cycle around the Sun this world only gets more and more depraved, and 2026 is just another record, and 2025 was the previous record holder. So please excuse me if I come off as serious today and every other day, because these are serious matters, and if you wish to read more about serious matters then I am now directing you to my " Religion & Metaphysics " label/category.     That is right, I have been writing these blog ...

Mechanism

Garuda ( गरुड ) according to Ida Made Tlaga ( អ៊ីដា ម៉ាដេ ត្ឡាហ្គា ) Mechanism | Wednesday – May 20, 2026 B eware of the claim that any system that can be described and defined in quantitative terms is a perfect, symmetric, and/or closed system – beware of the mechanization of the mind !      While mathematics may seem quite symmetrical, or at any rate it seems that the mechanism of mathematics tends towards symmetry, but the argument against this, read " Naturalism and Its Confused Opponents ", is that humans seek symmetry, they seek meaning and beauty , in the meaningless and the inscrutable . Therefore, it seems quite natural for men to seek some kind of explanation, or more to the point some kind of resolution, and this was the point of beauty and the wonders of the enchantment, but since all of this has been lost in the solidification of the world, there is none of that essential in life left, almost none; instead men wager that their mechanical and material explanat...
