The present study examines the relationship between spiritual intelligence and financial well-being among university teachers, with a particular focus on the mediating role of mindfulness. In the context of increasing financial complexity, understanding the psychological determinants of financial well-being has become essential. A purposive sample of 250 university teaching faculty members from Rajasthan was selected based on specific inclusion criteria, including age, income, and work experience.

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the perceptual mechanisms between the human camera-type eye and the dragonfly compound eye, focusing on differences in optical structure, neural processing, and spatiotemporal interpretation. Humans possess a single-lens, high-acuity system optimized for static detail; dragonflies employ a multi-faceted compound eye (up to ~28,000 ommatidia per eye in large species) with low spatial but exceptionally high temporal resolution (critical flicker fusion ~200-300 Hz versus ~60 Hz in humans under bright light).

Dans un contexte post-conflit marqué par l’instabilité politique, les fractures sociales et la fragilité des institutions, l’Afrique subsaharienne fait face à un défi majeur : reconstruire des sociétés pacifiques et inclusives. L’éducation à la démocratie apparaît comme un levier stratégique pour favoriser la réconciliation, la participation citoyenne et la consolidation de la paix.

This paper examines the critical and evolving role of environmental sustainability in the English Premier League (EPL), using Manchester United Football Club (MUFC) as an in-depth case study. Amid growing global pressure for corporate environmental responsibility, the professional sports industry, and elite football in particular, faces increasing scrutiny over its substantial environmental footprint. This research investigates the key barriers and drivers shaping the adoption of sustainable practices at one of the world’s most iconic football clubs.

In order to improve prosthetics and orthotics service delivery at the National Prosthetics and Orthotics Center (NPOC), the study was carried out to understand patients and health care providers views on services provided to customers. Satisfaction with this aspect of health care delivery at the facility has often not been studied. The aim of this qualitative study was to analyze patients’ satisfaction regarding services provided by the facility. Patients were interviewed face to face on services provided by staff.

In this article, we describe how Prof. Momchil Dobrev and Prof. Mariola Garibova-Dobreva arrives at the essence of when and how an organism's autoimmune reaction is activated, which is part of the law of the autoimmune reaction, and which causes classic Hodgkins lymphoma. These are things that explain hitherto unexplained processes and phenomena in medicine. This happens after the use of the system created by Prof. Momchil Dobrev and Prof. Mariola Garibova-Dobreva in 2006.

This study examines the interplay between teacher performance, the extent of globalization‑related challenges encountered, and the mitigation strategies implemented by developmental education teachers in the Catmon District.

In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamic characteristics of a viscous fluid called viscous variable Chaplygin gas (VVCG) model. The equation of state p=-B/ρ is used, with B=B_0 V^(-n/3) and B_0, a positive universal constant. Our study has also taken consideration of the bulk viscosity coefficient, ξ=ξ_0 ρ^(1/2). In order, to analyze the nature of the universe, the behavior of physical parameters in viscous fluid is discussed. The third law of thermodynamics validity is examined using the specific heat formalism.

This paper examines the central role of silence (mouna) in the philosophy and spiritual practice of Sri Ramana Maharshi. Unlike many modern religious teachers who relied primarily on doctrinal exposition or ritual instruction, Ramana Maharshi upheld silence not merely as the absence of speech but as the very nature of the Self and the highest mode of spiritual transmission. The study explores how silence functions simultaneously as ontology, method, and realization in his teaching.

Purpose: This study examines the evolution of digital lending in India’s personal loan segment from FY 2018-19 to FY 2024-25 (till December 2024). It focuses on assessing market growth, shifts in borrower profiles, demographic and geographic outreach, and emerging credit patterns. The objective is to understand how digital lending platforms have improved access to credit, particularly in underserved areas, and to evaluate the inclusivity of these changes in terms of age, gender, and credit vintage.
