Seat 08 · Wealth

Money is neither good nor evil — it is a mirror. Artha-Vidya teaches the seeker to understand value, not just pursue it. Financial literacy is not greed — it is self-defence.

The Science of Value

Economics is the study of choices under scarcity. Every decision has a cost, even the decision to do nothing. The seeker who masters Artha-Vidya understands that wealth without wisdom is the most dangerous kind of poverty.
