From Don’t Chase to Getting rooted in self

Dear Friends,

Namaskaram!

Herman Edward Daly (born July 21, 1938) is an American ecological economist and emeritus professor at the School of Public Policy of University of Maryland, College Park in the United States, best known for his time as a senior economist at the World Bank from 1988 to 1994. In 1996, he was awarded the Right Livelihood Award for “defining a path of ecological economics that integrates the key elements of ethics, quality of life, environment and community.” In this issue, we have given some of his quotable quotes.

This month, our front page story gives a lesson to all of us. It tells us not to chase the thoughts – If you chase them they will come back. If you don’t chase them, they will not come back.
