Spectacular piece by Anthony Seldon. A #MustRead
The damage Boris Johnson has done is beyond measure
Britain has been left weaker by a prime minister who demeaned its institutions and sullied all those who came into his orbit
🧵1/13
thetimes.co.uk/article/boris-…
'Boris Johnson’s latest protestations of foul play, calumny and dastardly scheming are all of a piece with his actions throughout his life. All are the product of his deep character flaws.'
'But second, his inner emptiness made it imperative for him always to be the centre of attention, craving affirmation and breaking truth and convention to achieve it.'

#BustingMyths #ForexReserves #Modinomics #MUSTREAD

Judging a Country based on its #ForexReserves is like Judging a Persons Networth based on his #SavingAccount balance & not his #LoanAccount balance.

Judge #Modinomics on #NIIP (-ve $390bn)
And Not on FX Reserves (+ve $506bn)
So what is #NIIP or Net International Investment Position. Let me quote @FinMinIndia Economic Survey

NIIP is the difference b/w an Economy’s External financial Assets & Liabilities.

If Economy = Person, NIIP is Assets (Property, Deposits, Investments) less Liabilities (Loans)
As per FY23 Economic Survey released by @FinMinIndia before budget, India's overseas financial ASSETS at US$ 847.5bn but India's International LIABILITIES was higher at US$ 1,237.1Bn

Assets ($847.5) LESS Liabilities ($1237.1Bn) = NEGATIVE $389.6Bn

STOP LOOKING AT FX RESERVES

🧵A #MustRead on the Holy Master Jagadguru #SriSri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamiji :

Even a remote reference to the Advaitic(non-dualistic) nature of any form of the god would immediately carry away Sri Jagadguru to the realms of Samadhi state. This was observed on many

occasions and especially during the pooja HH offered to Sri Chakra. The #Lalitha #Sahasra Nama, which is usually chanted in the Sri Chakra pooja is replete with names which suggest the Advaitic concept of the One Brahman manifesting in different forms

(For ex प्रत्यक्चितीरूपा, ब्रह्मात्मैक्यस्वरूपिणी, ब्रह्मानन्दा…) Sri Jagadguru would enter into the Samadhi state while chanting these Namas, and the mechanics of pooja would stop and not proceed to its conclusion. It would end only when HH would come out of the trance,

„Wenn soziale & ökologische Belange Opfer derselben Entwicklungslogik sind, dann braucht es ihre Allianz, um diese Logik zu überwinden.“ tageszeitung.it/2023/03/16/arm…
@DavideBrocchi: Soziale Nachhaltigkeit ist im Wesentlichen mit der Frage verbunden, wie ein friedliches Zusammenleben in der Vielfalt auf einem physisch begrenzten Planeten möglich ist. Durch Kooperation geht es vermutlich besser als durch freien Wettbewerb.
Weil es kein gutes Leben auf Kosten anderer geben kann, brauchen wir eine erweiterte Demokratie, die auch diese anderen mitbestimmen lässt: den globalen Süden, die benachteiligten Gruppen, die künftigen Generationen und die Natur.

There are four levels of experiencing deep connection with the Divine.

1. Saamipya
It means to feel that we are very close and very dear to the Divine. Now when will you get this experience? Will you feel this closeness tomorrow, day after tomorrow, 10 days
later or a few months later? No! Right now, in this very moment, just feel that you are very close to the Divine. This is what a Guru does. A Guru helps you feel that closeness with the Divine.
2. Saanidhya

Saanidhya means to feel or invoke the presence of the Divine. When you meditate, you become aware of the existence of the Divine; you experience the presence.
For example, we are enveloped by the air at all times but we do not always feel its presence. When you

How Does #Rising #InterestRates/ #CostOfCapital/#DiscountingRate Impact Stock #Valuations. A STUDY of large Cap INDIAN Stocks
A long THEAD, pls stay with me...Exercise Shows a #StockWise Impact of Higher Discounting Rates & Implied Long Term Growth
Exercise based on Div Discounting Model (DDM) for Current GSEC vs 8.5% GSEC (Every Justification for it to be 9%).
Starting with #Reliance
Tab 1: Stk px implies 14% CAGR LT Growth (8yr + 8yr) @ 7.45% GSEC
Tab 2: Same Growth (14% CAGR) @ 8.55% GSEC
=>18% Lower Fair Value(Rs2062)
Higher Global Interest Rates to counter Inflation => lower Growth. Past 11yrs, High Growth & Low Interest Rate Environment, RIL growth: Revenues ($ linked) at 9.2% CAGR & EPS at 9% CAGR over FY11-22... So Assuming EPS growth @ 14% CAGR in prev tweet is AGGRESSIVE

A #mustread book.

Having finished it, one of my big takeaways is that Savarkar--a major early articulator of Hindutva--embraced religiously-focused violence, as a virtuous activity for Hindus, again and again.

#Hindutva #violence Image
Savarkar's views on violence went far back. For example, in the early 1900s, Savarkar and Mahatma Gandhi discussed the Ramayana and Gita, two Hindu texts.

Gandhi saw the violence in both as metaphors. Savarkar saw it as real and a justification for more Hindu-enacted violence.
In fact, Savarkar saw Hindus as the original colonizers of India, in a sort of mythological blow-up of the theory of Aryan invasions (a theory at the time).

Here's the kicker -- For Savarkar, this early Hindu colonization was a good thing, to be celebrated.

Die #Ungleichheit in Deutschland ist im europäischen und weltweiten (!) Vergleich verdammt hoch.

Ein sehr guter Artikel zur globalen & deutschen Ungleichheit erschien heute in @APuZ_bpb. #MustRead bpb.de/shop/zeitschri… Image
Hinsichtlich der Vermögenskonzentration hat sich Deutschland im Laufe des 20. Jahrhunderts von einem der relativ gleichsten europäischen Länder zum ungleichsten entwickelt. #Vermögensungleichheit
Die wirtschaftliche Ungleichheit zwischen den Geschlechtern…spaltet die dt. Gesellschaft nach wie vor. Nur etwa 36% des gesamten deutschen Arbeitseinkommens entfällt auf #Frauen. Ein Grund hierfür: D weist nach wie vor eine der größten Einkommensbenachteiligungen für Mütter auf.

"Psychologia pieniędzy" to najlepsza książka o finansach ostatnich lat. Oto 9 cytatów, które są tak dobre, że nie potrzebują żadnego komentarza 👇🧵

(3, 7 i 9 🎯)
1. „Wydawanie pieniędzy, aby pokazać ludziom, ile masz pieniędzy, to najszybszy możliwy sposób, aby mieć mniej pieniędzy”.

2. „Największą wartością pieniądza jest jego zdolność do kontrolowania czasu”.
3. „Inwestycyjny geniusz polega na robieniu zwykłych rzeczy, gdy wszyscy wokół wariują”.

4. „Nie ma powodu, aby ryzykować to, co masz i czego potrzebujesz, w zamian za to, czego nie masz i czego nie potrzebujesz”.

I read many (opposing) comments about the supposed or real influence of Alexander #Dugin. I made some myself on several TV and radio stations today.
He was certainly not Putin's Rasputin, nor his director of conscience. But was he without influence?
Let's try to find out.

⬇️
I don't think you have to be on one side or the other. Things are more subtle and there are methodological points to consider.
The binary opposition of the two theses makes no sense.

1 First of all, yes, Dugin's books and articles were not equivalent in Putin's ideological system to the Communist Party Manifesto or Marx's Capital in Soviet references or Mao Zedong's Little Red Book. Here me on Putin's ideology.

Preventable is a #mustread. A clear, fast-moving time travel through the past years of #Covid19.
Gone into print in August 2021, the book is a reminder of harrowing images (and for many very real personal experiences and losses). I sadly think many of these have already been forgotten, just a few months later. Image
