I am writing this thread since informal exchanges with a few friends motivated me to write. I am writing purely based on my experience and gut feelings. I don't have scientific knowledge on this subject. Feel free to ignore this or laugh at it:) I will not mind if you laugh:) 1/n

 This thread is about a healthy lifestyle. Now, anyone seeing my DP (I am only 47) can understand how qualified I am to write on this subject:) However, this is a free platform:) Therefore, I will share my "knowledge" too:) 2/n
Good "health" is not about big muscles, flat abs, 6 packs, or running 35 km. It might include all or some of them, however, it's certainly not limited to them. "Good health" has 4 dimensions. 3/n
The 1st dimension is "Soul". We talk about priorities, right? So, this is the 1st priority. Unless we fix this, we can't have good health despite heavy exercise or dieting. 4/n
Various religions might talk about various ways to build a powerful soul. We have Sanatana Dharma, where we consider the soul as the one, unified, all-pervading entity. Without knowing anything about spirituality, I find this as the most practical definition. 5/n
To put it simply, it means "My soul is the same as the one BIG soul that pervades the universe". Now, this simple definition sets me up for a tremendously difficult journey! If all soul is one, then I can't harm a cockroach! How to live like that? THIS IS THE 1st EXERCISE! 6/n
Perhaps sacred books like Hanuman Chalisha and Shrimad Bhagavad Gita can help with this exercise. However, constructive work to free the soul from darkness is non-negotiable. A lonely journey, filled with frustrations, self-doubts, and victories too! 7/n
The next dimension is HEART, i.e., emotion. Improving one's health here requires plenty of exercises too, and, many of them are frustrating. I need to put in a lot of hard work. I need to remove many pieces of baggage. The excess baggage can go only with hard work. 8/n
Removing anger and substituting it with love: TREMENDOUS hard work! Removing fear and substituting it with courage: Back-breaking hard work! Again, sacred books and meditations can help. Nothing can substitute the hard work and sacrifice though! Those are non-negotiable. 9/n
The next, i.e., the 3rd dimension is MIND, i.e., "INTELLECT". Stale intellect pulls one down. The only way UP is to continuously learn. It may be professional skills. Alternatively, it could be hobbies. Gardening, music, painting, languages, writing, photography, etc. 10/n
The one common thread in all the 3 above dimensions is "progressive overload". It will be required in the 4th dimension too. I need to challenge myself. E.g., If I learned one song based on the first part of "Jay Jayanti" raaga today, I need to pick the 2nd part too. 11/n
The 4th dimension is BODY. Much of our health-related concerns focus on this, however, it's not the first priority at all. Ironically, it's one of the easiest to fix:) Therefore, it might be a good idea to start a "Healthy" journey with it. 12/n
Here, the 1st part is ACTIVITY. If I am sedentary throughout the day, then 1 HOUR OF EXERCISE WON'T HELP! Let's not fool ourselves! We need to BE ACTIVE. ALEXA may have AI, but it's NOT AT ALL intelligent for us to use it to cut down activities! 13/n
Sure, we have domestic help in our country. HOWEVER, WE NEED TO HELP OURSELVES. A life without sufficient hard work has many negative effects. Driving is COOL! Is it? Think again! I am not trying to give "Gyan" here! I just invite thinking! "COOL" for WHOM? Not your legs! 14/n
NETFLIX is cool. Maybe, or maybe not! Count the hours you are just SITTING, thanks to NETFLIX! How about taking the kids out for a walk instead and just listen to them? How about taking the pet for a walk, and just look at his/her eyes instead? 15/n
"SMOKING MAKES ME LOOK LIKE THAT MACHO MAN": This is what I thought as a teenager! Result? See my DP and remember that I am ONLY 47! Hundred of chemicals go in, with every puff! This is an addiction and nothing else! Thankfully, I have resisted for the last 72 days. 16/n
"WINE has benefits for the heart", "Alcohol is stylish": We heard these. The truth is that these are marketing campaigns! These are foreign objects for our bodies. Our bodies will do whatever it takes to get rid of them. That's the plain truth, without marketing. 17/n
How about food? Well, so many marketing campaigns abound! The simple truth is that what my grandmother cooked is STILL the VERY BEST for me! Why? Because, for THOUSANDS of YEARS, our people had this food. We are conditioned to gain the best value from that food. 18/n
How about exercise? 1st of all: It's a complex subject. Please study enough or consult experts before undertaking COOL and TRENDY exercise regimes. I must exercise. However, I must exercise correctly. "CORRECTLY" is the key operative word! Also, the correct exercise = BLISS! 19/n
How about sleep? The correct amount depends on who I am and my habits. NO APP can tell you whether you slept well! Your morning, how energetic you are in the morning, will tell you whether you slept well. Consult experts. However, look within TOO for answers. 20/n
Finally: I will be healthy only if I love my istha devata. My ishta devata may be Hanuman ji, Ma Durga, or Ayyappa Swamy. ACTUALLY, THEY ARE ONE. I AM ALSO ONE, WITH THEM. Only if I undertake the everyday struggles to BELIEVE this, will I be HEALTHY. Thanks, friends, and Ram Ram!

This is very unique temple as Shiva and Vishnu both are in the “linga” form in the same Garbhagriham. The Srikovil is in a circular pattern. Temple's Prathishta was done by Parasurama.


Mahadeva and Maha Vishnu in the same Srikovil is very rare Prathishta, but poojas are done separately Dhara is done to Maha Vishnu here. People suffering from “KAIVISHAM” and mental illness are fully cured on drinking a medicinal herb supplied by a nearby family here.


The root of the banyan tree around the Ayyappa Sannidhanam is said to have great powers for skin ailments.

Very ancient temple but was covered with forest for many years.
Later two persons Chakki and Chaathan, while cutting trees their axe hit on the nearby
@SriramKannan77


Vigrahams and it suddenly started bleeding. Later Devaprashnam was held and thus found out that these were murthy's of Shiva and Vishnu which was worshipped long back. And thus temple is constructed here.

RISHI PINGALA:THE ANCIENT INDIAN SAGE DISCREDITED FOR HIS MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATHEMATICS & PHI

Have you ever heard about,"The Golden Ratio"?
The Golden Ratio or Phi(Greek) is a mathematical ratio of nature. Mother Nature is the most exquisite artist in herself.


&Its this Phi she uses to create all the beauty in World.
If anyone uses this ratio correctly in their art,it can turn into a spell-binding piece of work.Such is the significance of'Phi'.But my thread isn't about it.Its about somethin called'Fibonacci Series'&who actually made it


Phi is related to Fibonacci series(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...)
&this series is responsible for everything dat is beautiful on this planet. Just try to calculate the ratio of any 2 successive numbers ÷ each of them by the number before it in above infinite series.

E.g. 3/2=1.5, 5/3=1.666, 8/5=1.6, 34/21=1.61904 and so on. Did you notice something? The ratio is coming almost same every time. This ratio is called 'Phi 'which is numerically represented as 1:1.618. This Golden Spiral is made in exact proportion of 1:1.618.


The thing I want to emphasize here is that we always find only those things appealing and attractive that have Phi. It's in our subconscious. Isn't it some revelation? We are the part of this Divine proportion of the God or the Mother Nature. Check these:

SRI MOOKAMBIKA DEVI, KOLLUR (KAR)

There was an Asura, Kaumasura, who was doing penance to please Shiva and get a boon. To prevent him from asking for a boon, Devi Saraswati made him dumb (hence called Mookasur)
Later, Adi Parashakti slayed him and came to be called Mookambika.


It is said that Adi Shankaracharya had a vision in which Devi agreed to follow him provided he did not look back. He kept walking and was assured of her presence due to the sound of anklets. When he reached here in Kollur, he turned back as the sound of anklets had stopped.


So Devi stayed here and merged with the lingam. The place came to be called Mookambika Kshetram.
The linga has integrated on it’s left side MahaKali, Maha Lakshmi and Maha Saraswathi and on the right side- Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.


A swarna rekha (gold line) divides this linga into left and right portion. Adi Shakthi in this Udhbhavlinga form appears only here.
Devi sits in padmasana and has 4 hands.
Adi Shankaracharya installed the Sri Chakra in front of Devi and also composed the Soundarya Lahiri here.

I worked in bank liquidity and treasury for the better part of the last decade, and there is one very interesting risk factor from the SVB collapse that I do not think we have ever witnessed before in modern finance, a 🧵:

First, some context. Following the 2008 financial crisis where a massive driver of stress was caused by low quality assets littering the balance sheets of massive institutions, the regulators sought to create a framework to ensure all banks were verifiably sound.

This meant forcing Federally registered banks to conform to capital and liquidity ratios. If they did not comply, they would not be allowed to issue dividends or buy back stocks, hurting the value of their enterprise.

There was the introduction of the concept of RWA, or risk weighted assets. A simple way to think of these ratios is, the riskier your asset base on a weighted basis, the more high quality capital (think cash) you would need to hold to stay in compliance.

Not only were banks required to regularly be in compliance with these ratios as a going concern, but needed to prove they could maintain certain limits when met with a time of stress across a number of incrementally adverse scenarios.

"I really want to break into Product Management"

make products.

"If only someone would tell me how I can get a startup to notice me."

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics – https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.

Trending news of The Rock's daughter Simone Johnson's announcing her new Stage Name is breaking our Versus tool because "Wrestling Name" isn't in our database!

Here's the most useful #Factualist comparison pages #Thread 🧵


What is the difference between “pseudonym” and “stage name?”

Pseudonym means “a fictitious name (more literally, a false name), as those used by writers and movie stars,” while stage name is “the pseudonym of an entertainer.”

A thing which I unironically and enthusiastically believe which is unpopular among smart people of my acquaintance: financial engineering has in the recent past and present contributed substantially to human welfare. We should hope to see more of it.

Maybe more geeks need to meet someone who says “My job is teleporting value across time and space.”

Financial engineering is sort of a squishy term. I don’t primarily mean payments infrastructure or financial rails, although both of those involve substantial engineering.

I mean more “We took a thing and performed some alchemy, and now have a new thing.”

Except instead of alchemy it is generally quite a bit of math, a huge amount of contract law and due diligence, often an impressive amount of ops work, and a dusting of technology that web devs would recognize as such.

I hate when I learn something new (to me) & stunning about the Jeff Epstein network (h/t MoodyKnowsNada.)

Where to begin?

So our new Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's stepfather, Samuel Pisar, was "longtime lawyer and confidant of...Robert Maxwell," Ghislaine Maxwell's Dad.


"Pisar was one of the last people to speak to Maxwell, by phone, probably an hour before the chairman of Mirror Group Newspapers fell off his luxury yacht the Lady Ghislaine on 5 November, 1991." https://t.co/DAEgchNyTP


OK, so that's just a coincidence. Moving on, Anthony Blinken "attended the prestigious Dalton School in New York City"...wait, what? https://t.co/DnE6AvHmJg

Dalton School...Dalton School...rings a

Oh that's right.

The dad of the U.S. Attorney General under both George W. Bush & Donald Trump, William Barr, was headmaster of the Dalton School.

I'm not going to even mention that Blinken's stepdad Sam Pisar's name was in Epstein's "black book."

Lots of names in that book. I mean, for example, Cuomo, Trump, Clinton, Prince Andrew, Bill Cosby, Woody Allen - all in that book, and their reputations are spotless.

1. “Who Are Ireland’s Members Of The World Economic Forum Implementing The Great Reset In 2021 ? 🧵1/28

🕵️🔎 Politicians, Musicians, Clergy, Bankers, Journalists, Human Rights, Artificial Intelligence, Sustainability, Corporations & Agriculture


2. In previous threads I have looked at 🇮🇪 key players in the Trilateral Commission as well as 🇮🇪 people who have attended the Bilderberger meetings. I also looked at the 🇮🇪 in the Young Global Leaders which is a site run by the WEF. You will see a lot of crossover between them.

3. The purpose of this thread is to compile all the Irish members into one thread for ease of access and reading rather than having to dive through the WEF site. This is by no means definitive and I will be adding more over time when they pop out of the woodwork.

4. Ireland’s WEF members are drawn from all walks of life but can be split into 2 separate areas. The WEF calls the first category “people” and the 2nd one “agenda contributors”. In total Ireland has a minimum of 61 members. Some of the names will be familiar and others will not

5. In this thread I’m just going to concentrate on the 21 people (there are probably a lot more). There are also 40 “agenda contributors” which I will cover in a separate thread. The agenda contributors are those who write articles or do research for the WEF site.
