Arjun

Trying to understand the world.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@mohakmangal Yeah, sure. That's why we should build better and stronger PSUs like the Chinese, earn significant revenue through them, and invest it in R&D and social sectors while retaining control over them. The Chinese did exactly that.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@Roblox_1212 This is why the Chinese focused on their PSUs. Now they receive significant revenue from them and have proper control over them.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@IndianTechGuide The solution is automation but when that happens many of these people will lose their jobs as well.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@omarali50 True, but nothing is set in stone. This will change too, the only question is when.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@DealsDhamaka Maybe they’re just poor, and things like these could help keep them afloat. Be considerate of them.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@dhaarmicguy I had friends who screwed up their lives during this phase. Maybe you should be glad that you didn’t end up like that.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@harshmadhusudan Don't these guys engage in wolf-warrior diplomacy? It's a bit rich coming from them.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@harshmadhusudan Very poor take. We can create labor-intensive industries to employ low-skilled workers. This is easier than creating jobs for highly skilled workers, especially during the AI revolution. This is what the Chinese did as well.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@mitrajo @anjaneyasevak Whatever that helps you. Take care. 🙏

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@storiesbyharshi Lol okay, so what's your degree then? Arts degree?

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@mitrajo @anjaneyasevak Regarding your life, I hope you'll achieve great things as you still have a long way to go. Good luck.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@mitrajo @anjaneyasevak That's your opinion, sister. If that helps you cope with life, that's fine. However, don't justify it by saying that the Gita preached it.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@anjaneyasevak I also disagree that Arjuna was destined to act. I would say Arjuna was destined not to act, and the Gita enlightened him to act. Moreover, a deterministic text wouldn't need such philosophical arguments, while the Gita repeatedly emphasises self-mastery (verses 6.5 and 6.6).

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@anjaneyasevak Prakriti conditions our actions, and we do not control the fruits of karma, but Krishna still asks Arjuna to develop right discrimination and explicitly tells him to act as he wishes in 18.63. So, even though there is no absolute free will, there is no absolute determinism either

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@pubity This is a series issue and affects motorcycle riders a lot at night. Hopefully they address it asap.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@mitrajo @anjaneyasevak That doesn't mean inaction or self-pity. Krishna gives Arjuna a choice in 18.63 and repeatedly emphasises action. Emphasising “determinism” can discourage people from striving for a better tomorrow. Such reasoning has also been used to justify discrimination in the past.

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@MeditatingDerm All the best

[Arjun @arjunpresannan]

@anjaneyasevak These two verses only challenge absolute free will, but that doesn't mean everything is predetermined. The idea is to develop right discrimination and act. Krishna himself explicitly gives Arjuna a choice in 18.63.
