Love, inner light, and calm thoughts, are far more precious than thrones, titles, and gilded chains. Courage increases the chances of success by creating opportunities, and always availing itself of them. In this sense, Fortune may be said to favour fools by those who, however prudent in their own opinion, are deficient in valour and enterprise. A good and wise man, for whom the praises of the judicious have procured a high reputation, proposes to himself certain objects, and adapting the right means to the right end attains them; but his objects, not being what the world calls fortune, neither money nor worldly rank, his admitted inferiors in moral and intellectual worth — but more prosperous in their worldly concerns — are said to have been favoured by fortune and be slighted. The moon waxes and wanes according to law; the clouds likewise, and all the manifold appearances connected with them are governed by certain laws no less than the phases of the moon. But the laws which determine the latter are known and calculable, while those of the former are hidden from us. When the sky is covered with black clouds, I am walking on in the dark, aware of no particular danger: all of a sudden, a gust of wind rends the cloud for a moment, and the moon emerging discloses to me a chasm or precipice, to the very brink of which I had advanced my foot. How lucky! How providential! Karma is the vessel of our person and character. Belief in the Law of Karma instils personal responsibility — a fruit from the past, a seed for the future. When one sees the inequalities of birth and fortune, of intellect and capacities, of the honour paid to fools and profligates, on whom fortune has heaped her favours by mere privilege of birth, and their nearest neighbour, with all his intellect and noble virtue perishing of want and for lack of sympathy. When one sees all this and has to turn away, helpless to relieve the undeserved suffering, his heart aching with the cries of pain around him — that blessed knowledge of Karma alone will prevent him from cursing life and men, as well as their supposed “creator.”

Bestselling author and renowned economist Lester Thurow argues forcefully that globalization is not a done deal and we must seize the moment now if we are to create a new global economy in which all can prosper. In this new book, Thurow examines the newly–forming global economy, with a special focus on the role of the US and the dangers to our own national well–being. He examines such questions as: What's at stake for us in the global economy? Why is it important that the system be equitable and that other countries prosper along with us? What should our goals as a nation be – long term and short term? What are the tough choices that need to be made in our relationship with other countries and world regulatory bodies? What role should we be playing globally? What are the political, economic, social choices / tradeoffs we will have to confront? Thurow contends that the huge and growing US trade deficit poses grave dangers to the value of the dollar and is putting our own economy in jeopardy. As the world economy leaps national boundaries, its hallmark seems to be a rising instability and a growing inequality between the first and third worlds. Financial crises in the third world come ever more frequently and seem to be ever more severe. The first world economies seem to be in ever more frantic boom and bust cycles. Globalization causes riots throughout the world and is one factor in the rise of terrorism against the West. Thurow shows how some nations, including Ireland and China, have embraced the concept of globalization and placed themselves into a position to prosper with growing and productive national economies. He contrasts their positive actions with Japan, whose leaders have allowed the nation to drift into stagnation and have destroyed its prosperity. He argues that this is the time to choose globalization or be left behind, the time to "build a global economy that eliminates the defects," and he provides plenty of ideas for corporations, governments, economists, and citizens to act upon.

The Yi Jing, I Ching, or Book of Change or Fortune Telling, is an ancient Chinese oracle that has been consulted in times of trouble for thousands of years. It was used as a guide and source of wisdom by the emperors, helping them decide the difficult issues of statecraft; and later on by Sages and Philosophers. It was both a source and repository of philosophical insight for the Chinese, even as a part of Chinese Astrology or Zi Wei Dou Shu. Both of the major Chinese philosophical traditions, Taoist and Confucians alike, have contributed to its development. A few centuries ago, it became popular among the mass and its popularity is growing fast in many countries. Future is always dark and unknown, and man has always been eager to know the future beforehand. ‘Chinese Astrology and Fortune Telling’ is a great and unique way of knowing and predicting future. This book fulfills the need and demand. It will make simple: both the subject and knowledge of the future, that look complex and uncommon.

Navigating through troubled times is often fearful, terrifying, and disappointing. We want to make decisions that move us along, but we are also fearful about making the wrong choice. Especially, during this pandemic we are fearful about our lives being touched by others, but with a deep desire to stay connected. These meditations trace the emotional upheaval of our struggle as well as provide hopeful solace in the struggle itself. Philosophers, sociologists, psychologists, spiritual advisors, and theologians are useful sources to this journey. In my endeavor to clarify and advance the singularity of our struggle, I have gleaned from many of those listed above. But most of all I have endeavored to dive into my own vulnerability, connecting myself to the human struggle for security and love.

The scourge of America’s economy isn't the success of the 1 percent—quite the opposite. The real problem is the government’s well-meaning but misguided attempt to reduce the payoffs for success. Four years ago, Edward Conard wrote a controversial bestseller, Unintended Consequences, which set the record straight on the financial crisis of 2008 and explained why U.S. growth was accelerating relative to other high-wage economies. He warned that loose monetary policy would produce neither growth nor inflation, that expansionary fiscal policy would have no lasting benefit on growth in the aftermath of the crisis, and that ill-advised attempts to rein in banking based on misplaced blame would slow an already weak recovery. Unfortunately, he was right. Now he’s back with another provocative argument: that our current obsession with income inequality is misguided and will only slow growth further. Using fact-based logic, Conard tracks the implications of an economy now constrained by both its capacity for risk-taking and by a shortage of properly trained talent—rather than by labor or capital, as was the case historically. He uses this fresh perspective to challenge the conclusions of liberal economists like Larry Summers and Joseph Stiglitz and the myths of “crony capitalism” more broadly. Instead, he argues that the growing wealth of most successful Americans is not to blame for the stagnating incomes of the middle and working classes. If anything, the success of the 1 percent has put upward pressure on employment and wages. Conard argues that high payoffs for success motivate talent to get the training and take the risks that gradually loosen the constraints to growth. Well-meaning attempts to decrease inequality through redistribution dull these incentives, gradually hurting not just the 1 percent but everyone else as well. Conard outlines a plan for growing middle- and working-class wages in an economy with a near infinite supply of labor that is shifting from capital-intensive manufacturing to knowledge-intensive, innovation-driven fields. He urges us to stop blaming the success of the 1 percent for slow wage growth and embrace the upside of inequality: faster growth and greater prosperity for everyone.
