Is Money Good or Evil???

Have you ever asked this question? I'm sure, most of you have asked this several times! as I do. What is the root cause of destructive wars? What is the root cause of jealousy? What is the root cause of most of our worries in this world? Don't you think, Money plays a vital role in all these issues? I strongly believe Money is one of the major root cause in all these cases!

Does that mean Money is Evil? Lets assume Money is evil! But, but.. is it possible to kick this Money away from our lives?! How is that possible? What would I do for living? How would I feed my wife and daughter?! Do I have to go back to Stone Age?! Relocate to a forest and live with nature?...

Live with nature.. Isn't that a great idea. Don't you agree people spend millions to pass their vacation at nature friendly locations to have peace and relaxation? Yes, we do.. Imagine our world without money... What would happen to innovations? Who would fund them? If there is no Money, won't that change some of us to become lazy???

When I think deeper and deeper... Money may neither be a good thing nor a bad thing!! It all depends on our perception and the way we handle it! The problem arises when we start giving importance or value to money! But its very difficult to be neutral with money. History shows us again and again that, the people who are neutral with money are really powerful and leads a happy life... Don't you think we should also try to be neutral when it comes to money??????

Do we Time Travel???

At times, we all do time travel in our imagination. Most of us dream about the future, sometimes about the painful past and fewer times about the good times in our past!! Apart from our future and past, do we time travel to a different time period??? Yes, we do! Have you ever thought about the triggering factors in such time travelling?? From my experience, the masterpieces of human art are one of the most powerful factors that can make us time travel. For example, James Cameron took us to a different world through his masterpiece "Avatar" (2009 Film). The masterpiece sculptures have the same power as well! Nature also has the power to make us time travel! In one of my previous blogs, I penned down my time travelling (pausing) experience through this conversational blog ! The third and most crucial factor is our imagination . Even though imagination plays a vital role in the above two scenarios; those were triggered imaginations and were

Am I traveling???

I'm in a bus and on my way to Delaware. There are different kind of people who travel along with me. I can see happiness in some faces, tiredness in few faces and some don't have any kind of expression looks like they are in balanced state. My neighbor is in deep sleep. I started starring outside. Everywhere it's green and green:) my heart starts saying HELLO to the trees which passes by. There is a tree in the middle, it's the tallest among all the trees. But but... It is dying.. All the leaves are faded.. Yes, it's in her last days. My heart stopped there and started talking to this tree. This tree lives here for few centuries. My heart tries to read her thoughts. It seems to be in a very balanced state. My heart starts asking several questions. Anton : Hey you looks so amazing. You are the tallest one among your friends! Tree : Ha ha ha! Anton : Excuse me! Why are you laughing? Tree. : I know the truth. I only have few hours or few days! Anton :

Cryptocurrency – Good or Evil?

By now many of you are much familiar with the cryptocurrencies . For starters, Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies ( Wikipedia Article ), built based on the blockchain ( strong encryption) and used for transactions. Since 2009, bitcoins are widely used in several transactions . How legal are the cryptocurrencies ? Are they being used for good purposes? In one of my previous blogs, we have discussed how money can do good or evil ( Is Money Good or Evil? ) Few countries strictly ban the usage of Cryptocurrency and US impose a capital gain tax for the cryptocurrency. In the United States, the crypto exchanges (traders) are supposed to report the transactions to the IRS . Currently, the value of bitcoin is ~$8000. See the above Graph for the trend (in US Dollars). Anything new takes time for everyone to get used to it and the authorities to impose controls. The same applies to the cryptocurrencies. Currently, the controls are not strict, it is hard f
