Heard about him for the first time but loved listening to the entire thing. youtu.be/_rcniEb9bLw?si…

War is a Racket. An excellent book written in 1935 . Could be read in a single sitting given its just 40 odd pages long. Powerful and still very relevant! amzn.in/d/0id1ECA0

"For art to appear, the artist has to disappear." Loved this book (first published in 1990). True test of quality is it's ability to stand the test of time and travel across domains. This does both! HT to a friend (who is not on Twt) for this reco! amzn.in/d/0e1kdVdh

Happen to read another article on similar lines earlier today - On the science of boredom. pathofcha.com/blogs/all-abou…

One of the wisest voices out there on the importance of silence. youtu.be/VoPDKjFHIDU?si…

Loved this quote, 'Thoroughly conscious ignorance is the prelude to every real advance in science.' ~ James Clerk Maxwell And as most things of substance and importance, easier said than accomplished... :-)

Nobody expects a child weighing 10-20 kgs to lift 20 kgs physically. But the same child is expected by most parents (incl. me) to regulate his emotions seamlessly despite their not yet fully developed brains. Simple ideas to help us improve as parents. amzn.in/d/hHH1lW5

@AequitasL @sidd1307 Om Shanti 🙏

We mourn the loss of a great man, a brilliant mind – and for all of us, a beloved boss. The grief we feel today is extremely heavy, and we look to Siddhartha’s timeless perspectives, and your prayers as we navigate this dark time. We have learnt so much from him, and we stay dedicated as ever, to his guiding principles and to the organization he built. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Boss, you are deeply missed.

"When nothing is done, nothing is left undone"... 🙂 Great read on Tao Te Ching. open.substack.com/pub/johnstoszk…

@imruzaan Such a shame... But then here is a line from this very article, which seems to sum up the behaviour well.. :-) "We want the wisdom without the patient work of becoming wise."

@arpitranka FYI, Someone just called the article plagiarised .. @katiejgln/note/c-139793321?utm_source=notes-share-action&r=72q16" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@katiejgln/not…

Very well written article on Compression Culture. substack.com/home/post/p-16…

One of the comments led me to a profile of her by her partner. Makes for a fascinating read. sashachapin.substack.com/p/things-you-l…

Powerful write up by women's ex world no. 1 poker player - Cate Hall. open.substack.com/pub/usefulfict…

Makes for an excellent read. While I read cover to cover and its worth it, the following chapters, apart from intro/conclusion, help get the gist: 30: Apple Squeeze 31: A Marshall Plan for China 36: 5 Alarm Fire 40: Plan b–Assembled in India 41: TSMC amzn.in/d/5W6YrKZ

Admitting Mistake ≠ Accepting Defeat Discussed in the context of inter-personal relationships in the book but it so very well applies in the context of relationship we have with Mr. Market. Source: Courage to be disliked (fascinating read). amzn.in/d/44JlES8

@tapak7 I have also been doing oil pulling since the last few years before going to bed... Been quite helpful!

@arpitranka coconut oil resolved so many issues for me. its the last thing in my mouth b4 bed and 1st thing in morning

Growing up in South India I have seen how widely coconut oil was used and generally helps people retain a very healthy lifestyle. Age old wisdom across our country is just phenomenal. midwesterndoctor.com/p/the-remarkab…

This makes for a superb read. Just 40 odd pages but its very rich in content. "Concepts without intuitions are empty. Intuitions without concepts are blind." - Immanuel Kant amzn.in/d/5o9Xphx
