The wise sage Confucius said,
“When there is beauty in the character,
There is harmony in the home“
The enlightened one, the Buddha added,
“When there is harmony in the home,
There is order in the nation,
When there is order in the nation
There is peace in the world“.
– Abdul Kalam

Πολλές αναφορές έχουν γίνει στην ιστορία εδώ και αρκετά χιλιάδες χρόνια, όσον αφορά την κυβεία ( ζάρια) .
Η σημασία των ζαριών άμεσα συνυφασμένη με την καλοτυχία, έπαιζε καθοριστικής σημασίας ρόλο για τις αποφάσεις όχι μόνο των ανθρώπων, αλλά και ολόκληρων αυτοκρατοριών στα αρχαία χρόνια.
Μάλιστα εκτενή αναφορά γίνεται από τον Αριστοφάνη σε έργο του για τα ζάρια(ως τυχερό παιχνίδι) στην αρχαία Αθήνα! Continue reading
