    "Always try to represent yourself as happy. Initially, it becomes your look, gradually it becomes your habit and finally it becomes your personality." 
     
    "Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable." 
     
    "Desire, ignorance, and inequality – this is the trinity of bondage." 
     
     
    In a teeming, often-suspect ocean of gurus, mystics, fakirs, yogis, perfect masters, and various other self-proclaimed incarnations of the godhead who have stepped foot on American soil over the years in pursuance of their spiritual ambitions, Swami Vivekananda was arguably the first, finest, and resolutely most authentic. A simple, austere man, he was a mountain of spiritual power made more impressive by his innate kindness, humility, and compassion toward all. 
     
    In this impossibly rare collection, the great master speaks for himself via a long-lost recording based on the philosophical, esoteric, and transcendent teachings of his beloved Hindu faith, or Sanatan Dharma (everlasting truth). Further, there is featured a profound collection of some of the swami’s finest thoughts on life and the spiritual path narrated by Sripad Jagannatha Das. 
     
    All in all, here is an intriguing, inspirational, historic audio biography of one of the most famous but yet, oddly, least known of the spiritual titans of his time and beyond. An absolute must for all serious yoga practitioners and devotees of truth. A true, unexpected spiritual treasure.

    I hate her. I f*cking hate her. Because she and her merry band of bitches made me do something I've never done before. They made me doubt myself. 
    Who am I?

    Communism, as an ideology and political movement, seeks to create a classless society where the means of production are owned collectively. Rooted in the works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, communism advocates for the abolition of private property and aims to establish a system where wealth is distributed according to need, not individual ownership. This chapter explores the foundational principles of communism, its historical development, and its responses to capitalism and social inequality. 
    At the heart of communism lies the idea of economic equality. Marx and Engels argued that capitalism inherently exploits workers, who sell their labor for wages while capitalists profit from the value produced. The solution, according to communism, is the overthrow of capitalist systems and the establishment of a proletarian (working class) dictatorship. This revolutionary phase would transition into a classless society in which private property is abolished, and wealth is shared among all members of society. 
    The key principles of communism emphasize collective ownership, state control of resources, and the idea of class struggle. In Marxist theory, history is understood through the lens of class conflict, where different social classes—such as the bourgeoisie (capitalists) and the proletariat (workers)—are in perpetual opposition. The ultimate goal is to establish a society free of these class distinctions, where everyone has access to the same resources and opportunities.

    How to Analyze People - Master...

    All of us judge people when we see them, and even if we aren't consciously aware of the conclusions that we make about people, we still do make them, as that determines our actions towards people. Reading people is a human habit and one that we cannot get rid of. We read people because we are threatened by new people that we meet, we want to determine if this person is someone that we can trust or not and a lot of times we end up making the wrong decisions. 
    The purpose of this book is to make this inexact science of judging people a little more exact. By giving you some standards based on which you can judge people, you will become consciously aware of how people function, and more importantly, you'll have a guideline according to which you can read body language. It'll also help you to be sure about the conclusions you come to because a lot of times, our intuition tells us that something is wrong with a person, but we just shut it off because we are too scared of coming off as judgmental. 
    Analyzing people is not only good for protecting yourself but also helps you to communicate better with your loved ones. You can notice small things once you start looking at people, and you will know how to manufacture a situation where everyone can feel comfortable. Being able to read body language also gives you a sense of control since you have information about people that you can use to judge their intentions, control their behavior, and even your behavior. 
    In this book, we're going to take a look at how the process of analyzing people works, why self-awareness is important and the role it plays in analyzing others, the basics of nonverbal and verbal communication, some intricacies of human psychology and lastly, the practical applications that you can derive out of all this knowledge.
