Well today i will take you to a journey where nobody wants to go i.e Nark. Hence beware of doing Adharma/Evil things. There are various mentions in Puranas about Nark, But my Thread is only as per Bhagwat puran(SS attached in below Thread)

The deeds or kriyas mentioned in the Vedas is indestructible, but the tradition of Yagya's should not be discontinued. Vedas are the writings of the observations made by the ancient sages. pic.twitter.com/qKsfma8zwm

THE IMPORTANCE OF BHAGWAT PURAN / BHAGWATAM
— Anshul Pandey (@Anshulspiritual) December 16, 2020
There lived a brahmin called Bopdev in Totadri. He was a Krishnabhakt and well versed in Vedanta. He went to Vrindavan to pray Shri Hari.
After a year Shri Hari showered on him the greatest form of Knowledge. pic.twitter.com/d2ID5EeO4R

WHY DID KING DAKSH BEHAVE NEGATIVELY TOWARDS SHIVA AND SATI.
It was actually the shakti form of devi which took birth as Sati in Daksh's house who acquired this name due to her satya swarup.
Everyone is aware of the story as to why Sati jumped into the Yagya fire.
But there is a story behind the reason for the negative behaviour of Daksh.
It so happened that once Rishi Durvasa went to Devi Jambunadeshwari and after her darshan recited the Mayabeej mantra. The devi happily gave him a divine Garland. Durvasa happily accepted it and left.
On his way he met Daksh who was eager to get the divine Garland. He requested the Rishi to give him that Garland. Knowing that Daksh was a good person, Durvasa gave the garland to him.
But Daksh casually kept the garland on his bed and went about doing his earthly instinctive work. Due to this insulting behaviour of Daksh for the divine garland, he developed a negative feeling for Shiva and Sati(Aadi Shakti).

If you have a spiritual practice, this would be a good time to double down on it.
If you don’t have a spiritual practice, this wouldn’t be the worst time to start one.

Do yr spiritual practice. Even when you don't feel like it.
“Hardly does our head begin to ache than we stop going to choir, which won’t kill us either. We stay away 1 day bc our head ached, another bc it was just now aching & 3 more so that it won’t ache again.” Teresa of Avila
Ok: a spiritual practice. Something that you do regularly, and if you do it with the right intention, can transform your relationship to yourself, other people, the world and your place in it and (if this resonates with you) the divine.
Prayer. Meditation. But also: making art. Walks in nature. Going running, for some people. I wrote a whole entire book on parenting as a spiritual practice. Intention matters.

Funny, before the election I recall lefties muttering the caravan must have been a Trump setup because it made the open borders crowd look so bad. Why would the pro-migrant crowd engineer a crisis that played into Trump's hands? THIS is why. THESE are the "optics" they wanted.
This media manipulation effort was inspired by the success of the "kids in cages" freakout, a 100% Stalinist propaganda drive that required people to forget about Obama putting migrant children in cells. It worked, so now they want pics of Trump "gassing children on the border."
There's a heavy air of Pallywood around the whole thing as well. If the Palestinians can stage huge theatrical performances of victimhood with the willing cooperation of Western media, why shouldn't the migrant caravan organizers expect the same?
It's business as usual for Anarchy, Inc. - the worldwide shredding of national sovereignty to increase the power of transnational organizations and left-wing ideology. Many in the media are true believers. Others just cannot resist the narrative of "change" and "social justice."
The product sold by Anarchy, Inc. is victimhood. It always boils down to the same formula: once the existing order can be painted as oppressors and children as their victims, chaos wins and order loses. Look at the lefties shrieking in unison about "Trump gassing children" today.
Funny there are those who think these migrant caravans were a FANTASTIC idea that's going to take the immigration issue away from you.

Like several weeks watching a rampaging horde storm the fences & throw rocks at our border patrol agents & getting gassed = great optics!

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.
The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.

1/ Here’s a list of conversational frameworks I’ve picked up that have been helpful.
Please add your own.
2/ The Magic Question: "What would need to be true for you
3/ On evaluating where someone’s head is at regarding a topic they are being wishy-washy about or delaying.
“Gun to the head—what would you decide now?”
“Fast forward 6 months after your sabbatical--how would you decide: what criteria is most important to you?”
4/ Other Q’s re: decisions:
“Putting aside a list of pros/cons, what’s the *one* reason you’re doing this?” “Why is that the most important reason?”
“What’s end-game here?”
“What does success look like in a world where you pick that path?”
5/ When listening, after empathizing, and wanting to help them make their own decisions without imposing your world view:
“What would the best version of yourself do”?
