Life is marked by variety and change leading to uncertainty. Exciting and bewildering at the same time. Yet, we are able to function because there is 'order' too. Greater the understanding of the 'order', greater the ease in dealing with life's unpredictability. India has produced a great number of Rishis, who put in endless efforts to grasp the 'order'. Some of their expressions and deliberations became India’s scriptures, more numerous than any other country.
A modern rishi is the venerable Charlie Munger, partner of and oracle to the Oracle of Omaha - Warren Buffett. Veritably described as the ‘most rational human being’ to his cult-like supporters; he is a source of guidance and inspiration to the world’s greatest thinkers and investors today.
How useful it would be to connect the wisdom from ancient teachings to that of the great modern master, which will not only help tide through the current crisis but provide tools and interdisciplinary knowledge that will be of abiding value. It would be the very best that one can hope for.
