Don't act smart with Shankaracharya, you will get roasted...

This is a very interesting story from ShankarDigvijaya where Mandan Mishra tries to insult Shankaracharya but gets insulted in return.

The fun lies in the twisting of meanings of Sanskrit words by Shankaracharya.I will try my best to translate while preserving the real meaning.

Shankaracharya went to house of Mandan Mishra to debate with him, but he found the door locked so he took alternate way and went in
The conversation that followed went somewhat like this...

On seeing Shankaracharya

Mandan(angrily)- From where did you come, you bald fellow?

Shankar - I am bald till neck.

(He said เค•เฅเคคเฅ‹ เคฎเฅเคฃเฅเคกเฅเคฏ Shankar took meaning as, 'How far are you shaven?' so he replied till neck. )
Mandan - I did not ask this, I asked your way

Shankar - Then what did the way reply?

(Mandan ment "I asked about your way" (From where did you come?) Shankar twisted meaning as 'I asked your way' so he said "What did the way reply?")
Mandan (frustrated) - It said, your mother is bald.

Shankar - But you asked it, it must be talking about your mother not mine.
Mandan(Fuming) - Oh ! Did you drink alcohol ?? (Are you drunk)

Shankar - No Alcohol is white not yellow

(He said เค…เคนเฅ‹ เคชเฅ€เคคเคพ เค•เคฟเค‚ เคธเฅเคฐเคพ? Here เคชเฅ€เคคเคพ has two meanings, drunk and yellow, Shankar twisted the meaning as yellow and said no it was white not yellow.)
Mandan (slyly) - Oh, so you know about the color of Alcohol...

Shankar - Yes I know the colour but you know the taste.
Mandan (totally frustrated) - (Indicating towards Shankar) This poisoned meat eater has gone mad thats why (he is) speaking like this.

Shankar - True, just like his father, your child born from you is a poisoned meat eater.
(He said เคฎเคคเฅเคคเฅ‹ เคœเคพเคคเคƒ เค•เคฒเคžเฅเคœเคพเคถเฅ€ it has two meanings, 1."Poisoned meat eater has gone mad"
2 "Poisoned meat eater was born from me"

Shankar twisted the meaning and took second meaning.)
Their talk continued after this, If readers are interested I will make a thread of their rest of their talk

If you have a spiritual practice, this would be a good time to double down on it.

If you donโ€™t have a spiritual practice, this wouldnโ€™t be the worst time to start one.

Thread on why


Do yr spiritual practice. Even when you don't feel like it.

โ€œHardly does our head begin to ache than we stop going to choir, which wonโ€™t kill us either. We stay away 1 day bc our head ached, another bc it was just now aching & 3 more so that it wonโ€™t ache again.โ€ Teresa of Avila

Ok: a spiritual practice. Something that you do regularly, and if you do it with the right intention, can transform your relationship to yourself, other people, the world and your place in it and (if this resonates with you) the divine.

Prayer. Meditation. But also: making art. Walks in nature. Going running, for some people. I wrote a whole entire book on parenting as a spiritual practice. Intention matters.

You donโ€™t have to be religious to have one.

Simple and effective way 2 make Money


Idea 1:- Use pivot level like 14800 in case of nifty and sell 14800straddle monthly expiry (365+335) exit if nifty closes on daily basis below S1 or above R1

After closing below S1 if it closes above S1 next day or any day enter the same position again vice versa for R1

Idea2:- Use R1 and S1 corresponding strikes multiple
Incase of R1 15337 take 15300ce
N in case of S1 14221 use 14200pe
Sell both and hold till expiry or exit if nifty closes below S1 or above R1 around closing
If the same bounces above S1 and falls below R1 re-enfer same strikes

Use same criteria for nifty, usdinr and banknifty

(This is must)Use this margin rule for 1lot banknifty pair keep 4Lax margin
For nifty one lot keep 3Lax
For usdinr 100lots keep 4Lax

I bet you if you do this on consistent basis your ROI will be more than 70% on yearly basis.

Couldn't explain easier than this
