Low self confidence, superstitious nature,  jealousy/envy and insecurity lead to it

Am not superstitious, am not jealous kind of person. 

But everytime I share some  goodnews,  something bad will happen or some bad news will follow 
I don't want to believe in this nazar concept. But my ife doesnt allow me to. 
The instances have been too many to write it off as random coincidence.

If that was the case, extroverts would not exist.

I didn't previously, and then few unexplained things happened (basically went downhill after telling certain things to someone)

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

Are we inflicting bad things on ourselves?

[2 am Thoughts] Is it nazar or is it imposter syndrome?

So it's basically about when something good happens to you, like getting a new job. Do you believe in telling your friends or relatives in advance, before joining? Or do you prefer to share the news on the joining day through LinkedIn or some posts?

The fear I have in my mind is that if I tell them in advance, I might not get the offer or something bad may happen. In the past, my 8 LPA job offer was revoked, and then I landed a 6.5 LPA job, but the package changed to 4 LPA. So I've decided not to tell anyone in advance about what's happening in my life.

Does it happens with you or I'm overthinking much 🤔 

If you think I sound crazy then do let me know how to overcome

Last year, I was grinding away at the client's office. They're like the big shots in the textile game. Fast forward to a Saturday night, 8:30 PM, and we're finally wrapping up our work.

My girlfriend flew from Delhi and we decide to hit up this ultra-luxurious restaurant for dinner. We go all out, order everything that catches our eye, and to top it off, we decide to cap the night with this mind-blowing dessert that sets us back a solid 25,000.

When the bill arrives,I pay and then I shoot a reimbursement request to the client; stating to have a dinner with one of their major vendors, thinking it's all in good fun, right?

Well, guess what? Next day the client comes back and I receive a mail stating my reimbursement is approved! I'm sitting there, staring at my phone, thinking, Did I just stumble onto some secret business dinner expense loophole?

So finally, someone spoke about this fraudulent startup AstroTalk. How they operate and how they take advantage of gullible people, is completely explained in the video. These kinds of startups need to be busted on LinkedIn and other social media platforms so that no one calls prey for such cheap tactics. This is just another BYJUs in the making. The cofounder is an IIT IIM grad. Shows how greed can even pollute the minds of even highly educated people. Really don't understand how the VCs can be so fucking dumb, funding them with 165 Crores!! Shocking but it isn't surprising since the Indian Startup ecosystem is filled with such scam artists.

Hey grapevine folks,

I hope you all are enjoying your Saturday.

I hope everyone one of you here once in your life have always thought about karma.

Ki if you are doing good deeds , being good to others will result in good karma and you will reap its benefits in future and vice-versa.

But is the above philosophy is valid in today's time in kaliyuga where the money and power rules.

People with connections are creating havoc over normal people.

Shouldn't we now think instead of making our karma good let's do what it takes us to be successful by hook or by crook?

What are your views? And if you have any personal experience please do share it.

Is Karma Real?

Is there no value of life in India. Why does people believe in this satsang and dhongi babas. Puja karni hi hai to ghar p bhi to hosakti hai. 
Itni bheed hojati hai at any big religious places. 
What's your opinion on this?

At least 121 people died while trying to get Baba's Charan Dhul (dust of his feet).

"The chaos unfolded when a massive crowd of devotees gathered to collect ‘Baba’s Charan Dhul,’ causing a commotion that led to a tragic stampede near a field where the Satsang was being held. 

As devotees fell, others rushing towards the Baba's car did not bother and crushed them under their feet while trying to follow the vehicle."  

According to the sources, the Baba, who served with the UP police before allegedly being sacked following a ‘sexual assault’ case, had also been booked a few years back after he claimed that he would infuse life into a dead child in Agra.

Interestingly Bhole Baba’s name does not figure in the FIR lodged by the police in connection with the tragedy.

I want to understand- are there really audience for such content? Paying 2000 for a metaphysical concept?
I see this being talked about by a lot of genzs, especially women?

Why is it such a rage?

Making money from shady businesses has never been this easy!

Without sounding too cringy:
Growing up I’ve been a bit ignorant about our culture and mythology and its teachings. I was a believer in atheism and nihilism and stuff but as I’ve grown up now, I’ve realised I am not as strong and all-knowing I’ve thought of myself against realities of life. 
I now seek some spiritual guidance to build a philosophy behind my life. Build some principles to guide my life ( not just restricted to professional life)

I’ve been kinda inclined towards Maharabharat (read few stories here and there) but since I’ve missed the entire part of adopting a religion and brining god into our lives at an early stage, I’m finding it very difficult to incorporate this in my adult life. 

I really wanna make up for what I’ve lost in terms of spiritual guidance and teachings. 
1) can anyone else relate to the same?
2) How do I proceed from here? 

I’m not looking for any superficial means, but really want this to be ingrained in my lifestyle 🙏🏼

Rs. 5 crore/150,000 gamers = 333 rupees per gamer 😂

Most gamers would have actually earned less than that even because their clan members apparently earned 3k USD on average. Which means 70-80% money gone to a few people and rest earning nothing in the name of web3 games.

I don't know why Nazara is a profitable company, all the games they work on are shit. Indigg is even more of a shit show destined to die.
