5 Bonus Life Lessons from the code of law of Manu

A good thing to not be a conservative lie to have a wider range of
possibilities and references available. Over the years, the same red pill I
got by reading someone like Kevin MacDonald led me to explore that as a
teenager, I probably would have dismissed as hippie or new-Agey: Hinduism .
Beyond the strange imagery and oil-open your chakras sellers snake that
often appear to mind when you think about it, that spiritual form is
considered as a reference by the prime reviews modernity. The Hindu concept
of dharma can be a way to restore some balance in a West that has lost all
sense of a general equilibrium, and, as I could admit that trace the roots
well beyond the official history of Christianity and modern secularism seem
to hold something we lost sight long ago.
It is with this mindset I started reading a venerable legal code, the law
of Manu. It attracted me because it involves detailed answers to the
question out of time of how society should be organized or regulated & #
8212; remember that the lack of regulation of female choice, even
associated with excess regulating human action, caused the oligopoly of
some top guys -value on most women decent value and disgruntling deserving
but despised millenials & # 8212; without qualms for this or feelings of
this group.

At first, I found an interesting topic about women and gender relations. So
enough time content "other" me still relevant enough to glean valuable
lessons from him. Part of this "other" was published last week, and the
rest is here.
1. A normal company castes

Not to beat around the bush: a very interesting and a modern perspective,
potentially alienating feature of Hindu society is that it casts. Today, we
believe that most of caste as a primitive equivalent and more rigid social
classes, with the pampered royalty weighing on meritorious but a lower
caste individuals trapped. This is in fact a caste caricature.
While classes are usually measured by one of the capital & # 8212; even be
a leftist establishment involves "cultural" and relational capital & #
8212; no matter what or who one "really" are mainly internal castes in the
original and professional sense, and only secondarily social. Some
Westerners, seeing that contemporary India has thousands of sub-castes,
often conclude that the whole system is a complex construction, do not
think that this diversity can come from repeated interbreeding between the
principles which were much more pure in the beginning.
But, one might say, if someone whose vocation is to deal with letters
spawning in a family of illiterate craftsmen, or someone with a natural
sense of business opportunities is born into a family of soldiers ? More
often than not, castes follow the lines of heredity, but this is so because
the same product the same, that meet appropriate environmental goals and
spontaneous inclinations. Problem arises when castes mingle, or where the
upper castes lose sight of their own rationale, show hubris, separate ...
and degenerate or crumble.
Just as men and women are different, are, for example, a Brahmin & # 8212;
priest interprets main rites in charge of sacred knowledge & # 8212; and
Vaishya & # 8212; merchant, farmer and artisan free. Everyone has different
affinities, abilities, responsibilities, and should not be identified with
their roles. If the idea that "a spurious turning a prayer wheel," as
hardcore secularist said on television, should be considered beyond a guy
who made millions, seemed repugnant, consider companies that followed
meekly law castes, without letting them degenerate or too easily cross
them, lasted thousands of years, as our modern "egalitarian"
and "progressives" have always been in crisis.
2. Better be the third caste a dumbed-down beta

It seems that, over the centuries, most European Brahmins (I speak here of
the inner caste rather than social) disappeared, which could be the result
of priestly celibacy. The mindset focused on typically Western action
probably stems from a prevalence of people of the two intermediate caste
Kshatriya & # 8212; warrior, administrator, rights & # 8212; and Vaishya.
Similarly, it seems a safe bet to assume that the return of the Kings is
mostly read by people belonging to intermediate castes like Brahmins are
negligible in quantity, and the Shudra caste or fourth, have neither the
quest for autonomy or dignity, or the patience to ponder the red pill for
years.
So, to deal with the elephant in the room: let's say you do not feel like a
military career and fame, and instead recognize you as a member of the
third caste & # 8212; the third Estate. It can feel sickening to think of
handling the power of two castes below and think you can not join them, as
they could not change internal caste without turning into another person.
Is he?
A Vaishya should become familiar with gems relative values, pearls, coral,
metals, son, perfumes and condiments. It should be well informed about
sowing seeds, good and bad qualities of farmland, all the different ways of
weighting and measuring desirable and undesirable product properties, the
good and bad aspects of the regions, earnings probable and the loss of
goods, and the best way of raising farm animals. It should be well informed
on wages payable to officials, the different languages ​​of people, mode of
storage of goods, and purchase and sale procedures. (9.329 to 33)
Add that to be a paterfamilias and this leaves plenty of room for growth,
self-improvement, market knowledge and trade as your pocket, and be worthy
of respect. I would say it looks much better than being a monkey cabin who
rents his apartment and tries to please Anglobitch excess weight for sex
and salary.
Today, most members of the third caste are exploited by a handful of them
that benefit not cheap labor and market volatility. Undoubtedly, most of
those who belong here would be better in just a caste system, the same
reasoning of pure self-interest.
Also, I noticed several times that the people who seem to belong to the
Vaishya caste to interior can reject both the superiors but are rather
skittish if threatened with being reduced to the status of the fourth caste
& # 8212; the Shudra. A real Vaishya hate the idea of ​​being transformed
into a prole, entirely borne by a meager salary or state aid, and robbed of
the ability & # 8212; I should say birthright & # 8212 ;? In
self-determination, which can occur when the fourth caste apologists like
Bolsheviks would destroy private property and denying their senior
neighbors, but we are not in a traditional world.
serfs or even Shudra, the fourth caste, he had better than now
3. Self-control account for everyone

entertainment culture, self-indulgence, addiction, propaganda and other
factors accustom us lose personal control. The blue pill is exactly that:
to have our behavior controlled by rules that we are not aware, believe in
what the media says, and be complacent enough to develop addiction and debt.
Being red is pilled to regain consciousness not only of a hidden reality,
but also that comes between us and reality to limit our perspectives and
behavior & # 8212; and identify ourselves again. Being able to life on half
of your salary, debt free, and take Release girls or insults leftists,
without getting affected are self control demonstrations.
Manu law code expects everyone, including the fourth caste, develop
self-control, to the point of his mind "compensation" of negative thoughts
and emotions at particular times. Several sections are devoted to control
the mind, body and speech, and the Code recognizes that reached full
self-control worthy happiness and highest salvation.
This makes a lot of sense. If everyone tries to develop minimally virtues
and be polite, society as a whole becomes much smoother if everyone thinks
that the rights and opportunities muh muh. Also, if the first castes should
be almost exemplary, others do not have a culture, or victimhood "I am poor
so I can do and what I want," and this is particularly important to prevent
abuse.
Abstention from harming, truthfulness, refraining from anger, purification
and control organs and # 8212, what Manu said, is the essence of the law
for four classes. (10.63)
4. Independence is for some, not for all

Vaishya individuals feel an unfavorable economy where Big Corp tries to
reduce to low-wage workers, and men resent being turned into chumps or
clowns who depend on the whim of a girl to a bang. The modern claim to make
all potentially independent world, or an equal right to independence is
innate self care and dependent innate in alleged self.
In the case of adversity, women can work (eg 7.125) in specific jobs and
Shudra can live Handicrafts (from 10.99 to 100). Otherwise, in the easier
or more regular time, we must live according to his own Dharma & # 8212;
accept and dependency that goes with Dharma said. Note that the upper
castes does not automatically mean more independence at all levels:
Brahmins have the right to beg for food and shelter, which was not
despised, but it is forbidden to lend money on interest (10,117) or to sell
certain types of food, while the Vaishya can without prejudice. In
general, "it is preferable to perform its own law imperfectly than anyone
else perfectly" (10.97).
After all, much of the modern social chaos can be explained by a failure to
do so: Vaishya rich suitor political power of money the worst leftist
initiatives Shudra enjoy some authority round in small trigger power
heads, "emancipated" women show orbiters beta hunger and management
authority. Degeneration or hubris individuals in upper caste delay is no
excuse to manage their responsibilities to individuals of a lower caste.
5. Democracy and the compulsory school system are crap

Common sense may lie in numbers, but the knowledge of the highest sense is
not and analogy, agreement is on the market share, but the law is not:
[T] he thousands of men who do not follow the observances, who do not know
the Vedas [scriptures] and just use their caste to earn a living, get
together, and do not constitute a legal meeting. Fools enveloped by
darkness [can] say something like Lew when they ignore it ... (12.114-5)
Classical Athens, so often cited as a model of democracy, has been run by a
confederation of free men, experienced men who shared a collective identity
and sense of self-determination which can hardly be found in millions of
addicts media, research diversion- contemporary voters. Athenians also
recognized the difference between the law & # 8212; Dike, similar to Hindu
Dharma & # 8212; and legal or conventional.
Note that this does not justify the absolute power or greedy, pompous
managerialism hidden under a veneer of "progress" or "management science":
the law code specifically warns against the positions catching one is not
qualified to assume or forget his vocation.
In addition, the modern policy of compulsory school requires every child in
it-all system decision is unfounded: a teacher (2110) "should never
instruct anyone who has not requested or the 'asked an inappropriate
manner. "Children or apprentices must value and want what they have to
learn, not to have the head, and perhaps some would not be worse off if
they stayed away from written texts.
Conclusion
Among the Hindu prolific literature, law treaties are perhaps the most
accessible due to their practical orientation. Earlier than most other,
more targeted as these on the essentials, the Manu Law Code is quite
specific readable. It offers a good way of seeing what a traditional cosmos
wise & # 8212; if I can say & # 8212; and even the highly civilized society
looks like.
Also, if you take a look in the twentieth century literature "nationalist"
Indian, you might be surprised to see a complete lack of references to the
caste system, like nationalism and "Indian rights" had been a pretext to
deny the landmarks of ancient times.
Perhaps out of leftism has to pass at a time by the stern face of the
ascetic.
