Re: what does being 'muflis' do to self esteem?
monetary poverty is something that may have wealth related disadvantage due to being poor.
but monetary wealth can have its own disadvantages such as arrogance, avarice or greed.
what happens to the mental state of a Muflis person? how does the personal self esteem gets compromised due to the presence of such poverty?
share your thoughts if you like, on the inner split between wishes or wants vs. value of own self which a Muflis person ideally should keep as realistically high, when s/he are clearly not very rich in monetary terms?
best, Dushwari

Wealth is an external measure ... so when a poor person dresses in rags and is content in that then he has lost, but if a poor person stays clean despite the poverty then there is dignity in the poverty he has.
