Education System: Success Analysis

Education Which is said to be Third Eye of Human beings, because it makes us aware of current scenario and makes us perfect match with social surroundings. Education is also aimed at making one, equipped with the abilities, essential for earning the monetary sufficient for making the life enriched with all the necessary comforts. Is our present 10+2+3 three layered education system is coping with the aims of education? Is it helping our youth to gain the skills of earning money? Is the present education system is making the young ones aware of current socio status and filing their life with necessary manners and values to develop the attitude of social behaviour ?

In the olden golden days India was not only spiritual leaders of the world but also was setting standards for education in the form of Takshshila and Nalanda Vishawa Vidyalaya. Students of these institutions were not only said to masters of their subject but also seen as the person of wisdom. During the British rules these self respecting educated people were proving a hurdle for the rulers hence Mecale was come in the picture and the base of present education system, with aims of preparing the dedicated government servants was implemented.

In the year 1947 when we were allowed to live in the atmosphere of freedom and self decision, partition of the country has diverted attention and most important aspect education was left as it is. In the coming years a few changes were made by the introduction of present 10+2+3 system but the most damaging aspect “preparing the humble and honest government servants” was left untouched. This is reason of student unrest in our country. Let us have a look on our present education system. A students entered in the schooling at the age of 5 years and become graduate at the age of 20 years [22 years in the case of professional graduation like Medicine, Law and Engineering etc.] out of these 15/17 years of education, first 10 years are only for making the student literate and for making capable of gaining the knowledge. For the graduation of the subject remaining 5/7 years are used.

After the education up to level of graduation these young ones when enter in the society for the actual life, they realize that they are good for nothing. Even the professional graduates instead of going for self sufficient ness are looking forward for the jobs. This is reason for the huge unemployment. The youth is left alone without the skills of using their abilities for the implementation of the yields of their imagination powers. They also found themselves lacking in the field of courage required for the going with the innovative ideas. The recent human world history is also supporting this with a few handfuls like Dr. Hargobin Khurana and Bill Gates. Some one may that in comparison of our forefathers we are achieving the technical advancement at vigorous rate hence the use of wisdom, Intelligence, Imagination and innovation is on the higher side, but dear if you consider the population and successful innovative person ratio you will realize the truth. Similarly if you take the natural resources in consideration, which are on the decline continuously due to, burst in the population, you will be able to see the adverse side of the picture.

The failure of our present education system can be illustrated with
1] Day by day increase in unemployment
2] Unreal thought of the young ones that they are more educated than their elders.
3] Unable to utilize the huge natural resources that are available at our disposal.
4] Increasing attitude of gaining the physical wealth by all means.
5] Fearless corruption and bribery
6] Increase in self centric behavior and breaking of social rules.
7] Migration of professional students to other countries for the sack of better future aspect. It is not shocking news that about 30% of High salary paid staff of Microsoft is with Indian origin.
8] My experience at internet also suggest that our youth instead of getting the benefits of this huge knowledge world wasting time in the passing useless message and working as the slave for the some or other dominating foreign MNC.
9] Vanishing of the respect for the Indian Life Style and Socio economic structure. I recall the Hindi movie “Virasat” where hero instead of using his wisdom for the growth of ancestral crop cultivation wishes to start a chain of fast food centers. This is the real mirror image of thought process of our present youth.

Greeting Cards: Expression of Emotions

Every living has a natural tendency for the expressing self though it is true that human are most expressive of all because among the livings only human is enriched with variety of ways to express self where as others have very limited style of expression. In India even the rivers are considered among the livings that's why there is tradition of worshiping of rivers. Floods are the anger expression of river, where as helpless emotion is expressed by no water or very less water. Springs are expressive of the reproductive season of plants.

It was urging of expression that has forced human to add vocabulary to life, Invention of languages and printing technologies are to assist only this human tendency and latest addition to this are the e-mails and scraps. It is not the search of friends but the easy availability of space to express self is attracting youth to the portals like orkut and is going to make the orkut owner world's richest person by the year 2009. The increasing number of such portals is none else but is attempts of being benefited from this expressive tendency of human. Human beings are expressive but with that they also wish to adopt a unique style, different from others and very specific of them. This is the most probable reason for the existence of Greeting cards even in this modern electronic era. Diwali is celebrated just few days back and the festive season is on hence it is common to see a group of teens in shopping moll or gift centre, engaged in choosing a proper gift card for their love one. In fact they are searching the word group or the phrase to match with their expression style and wish to remain unique too. Read the following few line just for humor a young lady went to a store card and spend almost whole day in search of one proper card at lost a card match with her expression style and owner was at respire of relief but this was temporary as the next question from the lady was surprising as she wants a hundred of the same card, any way shopkeeper booked the order and promise the delivery within two days. You will say where is humor in this? The lady might be executive of some company and choosing a card for sending to clients. Dear humor was in words “You are the first person whom I am sending this card with virgin love emotions of my heart" that were printed on the card.

Here the question which is irritating my mind and forcing to write is not what word group, message or phrases are printed on these cards but is that why a particular one is selected by some one while others rejects the same? People engaged in this message business are used to say, the story behind their success is very simple a few words "We know to cope with the changing demands" but dear friends this might look you strange to read that whatever world group, message or phrase we are choosing for the sending to some one are the expressive of our hidden desire of receiving from some one. When a lover is sending card with the message

Sky is clear, Climate is fine
Promise, Forever you are only mine.


In fact this message is not for the opting a promise from some one but is expressive of our desire that in this world there must be at least one person, for whom we hold such great value that he/she ask us to remain with for ever. So dear friends in future whenever you receive a message or e-mail make it habit to reply and if you are using electronic media than instead of compose click on reply, so the person can see back on the message send by him/her, this is the way by which life goes on.

Campus Interview

Two famous phrases go like
Catch them young
Don't count your chickens before they hatch
Theses two phrases are connected with the campus interview like the one "The best place for hunting the future life partners is the university annual convocation" with the human life.
Campus interview, the pre job offer meeting can also be compared with the pre engagement meeting of boy and girl as in both of these option of selecting & rejecting is open for both the sides.
What is campus interview? A phenomenon which help to employers to choose suitable one for them before they have any practical experience of work, can't we say the process is the most suitable example for first phrase. Now consider the situation of the candidates selected, don’t they start weaving their dreams on assurances of a good secured future? What they are doing nothing but counting their chickens before hatching.

Pre Interview Preparations

· Advance info. Add an edge to your chance: Try to gain information about the companies which are going to be part of this. It not only helps you to make a clear choice of your options in advance but will also make you confident of facing the interview.
· Past is always the foundation stone of future. Try to find out the methods are being adopted by the company of your choice in the past for the selection process; here your college employment office will prove handy. This will make you mentally prepared for the interview.
·Monetary attractions are short term gains. Don't decide in favor of any company only because of high pay scale offered by the company. Remember companies are there not for your facility but for they wish to have most suitable person with a saving on salary expenditures. Try to find out the drop out ratio of the company, it might be an eye opener for you. Always keep it in mind loads of wealth never compensates the work satisfaction with a necessary earning. Work satisfaction will fetch you the mental peace and this will work as the success lift for your carrier.

During the Interview

·Clear concepts are always beneficial try to explain in short.
· Don't be impressed by the personal looks of interviewer as it will shake your confidence. Concentrate only on the questions.
·Be confident but avoid acting over smart.
·Be realistic: we are the most perfect judge for our own capacities hence don't fall to pray to trap of interviewer.
·Instead of starting the series of arguments with interviewer try to clear your point and as for as possible avoid arguments as this might prove your supremacy and command over the topic but at same time this might be the reason for a good chance missed by you.

After the Interview

·Go through very carefully the Contract given to you, identify the importance of these papers, these are foundations on which you wish to build your future.
· Consult your parents & teachers; seek their advice, because only due to them you are position of holding these papers.
· If there is any doubts, opt the clarification before signing. Don't say we will cross the bridge when we reach it.
·Read very carefully company police regarding the employee welfare and promotion.
· t might be possible that some past student of your college are working with the company, contact them to know the actual work atmosphere there.

Why this again and again?


News, A scene on T.V. screen has filled my mind with this question; I tried to analyses my thought process and concluded a few things which I wish to share with all of you

India; a country with world fame of secular region, A land of Buddha, birth place and work field of non violence principle of Mahatma Gandhi, A piece of land where “Sarva Dharam Sambhav” is not a slogan but a life style, A place with such strong communal harmony that all other countries dreaming about to have the same, Today seems to be place of unborn fire streams and waiting for smallest of spark for the explosion.

Today [30-11-2006] three cities of Maharashtra state are under the order of curfew, Almost a full train was set on the fire, some Hundreds of buses are damaged, A few innocent people forced to face untimely death, High ways were forcedly kept without traffic for several hours, Why all this happen because, some hundred km. away in Kanpur, a person with ill mentality has performed an action, for which a person with sound mind will not think even during the sleeps. Dr. Baba Sahib Ambedkar, the mind behind the creation of constitution of democratic setup of our country was the leader of mosses. When we say that Baba Sahib is the leader of Dalits [Lower caste people] in fact it is a kind of injustice with the work and humanitarian attitude of this great knowledgeable leader of the masses.

Presently in our country we are on the ways of setting a trend of withholding life for the reasons that can be solved in other ways. We are in the democratic set up where the number plays the most important and crucial role, but think calling band, with holding the city life and holding the social and communal harmony on hostage to show one’s number is a democratic way of protest? Surely not because it over ruled the democratic rights of others. Instead of playing at the hands of politicians we have to learn the art of handling so called new emperors immersing in India after all we have crossed the fifty of living in a democratic set up and at least now should start taking advantage of our experience.

Today it is common thing that as because so and so place, due to some action, as our emotions are hurt, our Devi Devata were insulted, so we are calling for band in our city and taking out peaceful agitation to protest that. Just think at the most of the times this results in the loss of social and personal properties and even sometimes life of some innocent citizens. Though we have crossed fifty of independence but still we have to learn the art of utilizing our right of expressing self without being obstacle to the same right of others. We are from the country of Lord Rama and Lord Krishna, they have shown us the path of tackling the devil forces; just create the situations where the back up team of theses forces can be isolated from the rest of the society and than can be treated accordingly.

A recall a scene from recent hit “Lage Raho MunnaBhai” in which Gandhi Ji was expressing his desire of removing all his statues. If we fell that these statues are going to become an obstacle for our social harmony why not we are thinking in terms of implementing this hypothetical desire of our father of Nation to keep intact our real social harmony. Remember these personalities were great and worked for the society. Instead of erecting the statues the real homage to these elites, is the fallowing the way of life suggested by them and implementing their way of functioning in our day to day life will take our country on the path of progress. Otherwise it will become our destiny to face this situation some time on the name Rama, some time labeled with Allah or some time with any of our leader like this time Dr. Ambedkar. We have to remember

Jab Ramzan mein Hai Ram Aur Deepawali Mein Ali
Jhagadoo se kiya apana kam apani Dosti Bhali.
When there is Ram part of word Ramzan and Ali of the word Deepavali what we have to do with fighting, our friendship is better for that.

I wish to conclude my writing with the note it is necessity and demand of the present era to develop a social attitude of looking at such incidents not as the insult of our God / our religious faith or of our beloved leaders. We should learn look at incidents of such type as act of person of disturbed mentality. This is the only way of keeping our social, communal and nantional harmony intact and safe gaurding individual and national properties beside the saving precious human livies lossed.

Hindutva and Tolerance


Let me start the topic with two very simple looking questions. What is Hindutva or Hinduism? What is Tolerance? If I have been asked to describe the story of recent box office hit Hindi movie “Lage Raho Munna Bhai” in one single word, my answer will be tolerance. You might say that it was non violence of Gandhi ji which forced British rulers to make India free but dear if you look in the life of Mahatma Gandhi you surely will conclude that it was not the non violence but was the tolerance which was centre of life of this great leader from the India. Starting with the incident of cab driver in England to the partition of the country, life of Gandhi Ji was revolving round this word tolerance.

What do we mean by this word tolerance? Oxford dictionary say “willingness or ability to tolerate”. The general concept about the world is the “sustaining against the prolonged strain” but if we see the meaning more purposefully, we can be drawn “Ignoring person or situation and preventing self, willingly from taking any action, being capable of which” is the tolerance. We the Hindus are the most ancient user of tolerance a Sanskrit phrase “Sarva Dharama Sambhav” is an ideal expression not only for the co-existence but also for the tolerance, because co-existence is almost impossible with being the masters of practicing tolerance.

Now what is Hindutva? Where did this world Hidutva originate? We all know that World’s oldest knowledge books Vedas were written in Himalaya. In all probabilities word Hindu seems to be related with this oldest civilization of the creators of Vedas. Hindutva is union of two words Hindu and Tatva [Element]. Hindutva is the one who is with the element of Hindu, thus we can say that like the Islam and Christianity Hindutva is not a religion because like former two neither there are certain religious rules, Organisation nor is founded by a single person. Hindutva was and is the life style of those who are the parts of ancient human civilization, for whom Vedas are the base of knowledge and tolerance is the key of social life. History also supports that Hindus are practicing tolerance from very ancient time just recall killing of King Shishupal during the Rajyasu Yagya performed by King Yudhistra at Inderprasth. When Bhisham Pitamah was invited by Lord Krishna as the person, worshiped first at Yagya, Shishupal become angry and started series of ill and abuse words not only for Pitamah, Pandvas but also for Shrikrishan, all the gathering knowing the powers of Lord Krishna were looking towards him, who was silently making lines on floor with his foot thumb, As the Shishupal said abuse words about the queen Dropadi, Shrikrishna stood up and addressed the gathering “This was my tolerance, as I have promised to my aunt and mother of Shishupal, that I will tolerate hundred sins of Shishupal and the lost abuse word was the 101 hence I am warning Shishupal.” Shishupal can’t understand that and kept on with the abuse words which forced Lord Krishna to cut Shishupal’s head with Sudarshan Chakara.

Effects of Tolerance

Tolerance equipped us with the ability of adaptation. How the Hindus are masters of practicing tolerance this also can be illustrated by the huge variety of customs and traditions among the Hindus. In a time of month or so we will celebrate New Year Eve, does this celebration have Indian roots? Certainly not this is an adaptation of culture from European customs and traditions under the influence of British rule, the same can be said about the Valentine Day and growing club and pub culture.

It is fact that, it was our tolerance that allowed Mughal dynasty and British’s to rule this country for several hundreds of years; some people even say that it was uterus of tolerance of our political leaders from which Pakistan got birth. I am not sure about it but sure of the fact that it is tolerance of we Indians that even after so many wars still we are interested in peace talks with Pakistan.

We Hindus, though practicing tolerance from quite long time but surely we lost it momentary and that has resulted in the formation of various religious streams among the Hindus just as of Buddhism, Jainism and so on. Similarly as in Hindus God has taken many Avtars and followers of these avtars of God are becoming separate religious identity again due to momentary loss of tolerance.

Make Tolerance Your Strength

Tolerance, ability to adopt, Tolerance, the power of ignoring, Tolerance, the exhibition of self control, tolerance, the inheritance quality of Hindus, be sure to make it a strong point of character and life .Remember it is only tolerance that has kept us and will keep us tied with each other and in spite of real huge variation in religious faiths and sets of worship styles,is allowing us to be called as Indians. It is also most essential that we should ably project our tolerance in such a way no one in the world dare to think of taking disadvantage of our this unique quality tolerance.

Tolerance can be said as an attitude also and like other attitudes, we have to learn the art of developing it. Fortunately in our community ,to considerable levels still combine family system is in the existence and this is the perfect ground for leaning the art of developing an attitude of tolerance. Remember forgiveness is the hardest act to perform and tolerance is the success key for it.

Martyrdom Day of Nineth Sikh Guru Dhan Sri Guru Teg Bahadur


Today is the martyrdom day of Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib Ji. On this day Guruji scarified their life for awaking the whole Hindu community against the brutle actions of Muslim King Aurangzeb and his decision of spreading Islam under the shelter sword. The day can also be known as the foundation stone for the formation of Sikh religion as brutally killing of father has opted tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji with the establishment of Sikh Panth. According to the Guru words “ Chidya Naal Baj Ladoon taan Guru Gobin Naam Rakhaun” [ if I am wrong my sikh friends are requested to correct me] I am Guru Gobind Singh only if I make my sparrows capable of fighting with hawks. Today is the 331st anniversary of the day.

Those were the days; When King Aurnagzeb was in full swing of spreading Islam in India. He warned Kashmiri Pandits either to accept Islam or be ready for the painful, untimely death. Kashmiri Pandits looked in the mater seriously and concluded that only Sikh Guru Teg Bahadur is capable of rescuing them from their possible humiliation at the hands of King Aurangzeb and will protect them from accepting Islam. Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib asks Kashmiri Pandit to agree conditionally with King Aurangzeb. The condition was that if King made Guru Ji to accept Islam by any means than all will accept it otherwise king will not ask them for it again. King Aurangzeb found this proposal more attractive as he thought that not only Kashmiri Pandits but all the followers of Sikh Gurus will accept Islam if he succeed, so he ordered for the prisonment of Guru. In the prison he made arrangements for high physical and mental punishments for the Guru Sahib. Guru Sahib, in a discussion with son Gobind Singh Ji, before going for prison, has said “Listen son! Time has come when some body has to scarify life to awake all Hindus”. All the physical and metal tortures were proved insufficient for making Guru Sahib agreed to accept Islam. King Aurangzeb was not ready to face the defeat so he ordered death sentence for Guru Sahib and on this day Guru ji were brutally killed at Chandani chowk Delhi. In the memory of this incident Gurudwara at place is named as the Shish Ganj Gurudwara. Public in general was remain away from the funerals of Guru Sahib with fear of being identified by the soldiers of Aurangzeb.

After the death of Father, Gobind Singh Ji was sworn in as the Tenth Guru. Guru Gobind Singh Sahib were determined to produce a generation that don’t cares about self life and dare to face and fight the injustice so Guru Sahib established “Khalsa Panth” with the statement “I am giving some identification marks for these so my these disciples will be identified even a single is present in the crowd of thousand peoples.” Today these people are called as Sikh or most commonly Sardar Ji.
Step out from the world of misunderstanding

I wish to utilize this opportunity to clarify a hard truth about this brave and God fearing Sikh community. In our country Sardar Ji Ke Barah Baj Gaye is taken as the topic of humor. I am going to share with you the true story behind it. [Send to me by one of my e-friend Indu…].

In the year 1739 when Sultan Nadar Shah was on his way back with the huge Indian wealth and about 2200 Hindu women. Sardar Jassa Singh, the commander of newly formed Sikh Army of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, attacked on the convoy of sultan and rescued all the women, all this happened at mid night round the 12’o clock. After that it happened several times that any convoy going out of India with Hindu women were attacked at midnight by the soldiers of Sikh army and a kind of fear started among these robbers for the 12’o clock. The fear of attack by Sikh Army was become so deeply rooted in the minds of Mugal Soldiers that many of them started shouting in sleep “Be careful! Sardar ji ke Barah Baj Gaye” and become reason of humor for fellow soldiers on next morning.

Dear this is the reality of Sardar Ji Ke Barah Baj Gaye. It is very unfortunate that unknowingly we become part of tradition in which the above sentence is used as the humorous comment for a brave and God loving community. If you feel that you had done the same mistake, which thousands others are doing just pray your God for forgiving you and tell the real story to others.

Things, rules and thought process of our futuristic universe are going under the continuous stress of change. The markets are being loaded with a variety of new ranges of useful and useless products on the daily basis and setting its new norms, trends with the alteration in the fundamental concepts. In the present era bribe is termed as the expenses accrued from the educating the authorities.

The concepts of consumer is king and customer is always right are become part of forgotten history. Many of businessmen of present are not even aware of these policies. The new and successful trend of the market is the “This is the world of advertisers”, as long as you are able to advertise aggressively your product, success run is with you. The market is showing illustration for the Hindi phrase “Jo Dikhata Hai, Wo Bikata Hai “[Whatever is visible is sellable].

In the recent times we are forcedly become witness of breaking of direct proportion of product quality and sale. A few things other than the quality have started playing the most vital role in the process of sale boost of a particular product / Service. Some of these are:-

SMILE

When you are going to visit your sick friend you might take with you as many gifts as you wish, but what satisfaction and relief your slight SMILE will provide to your friend, all your costly gifts and flowery bouquet are not be able to provide that. So dear friends smile and you will find that each and every particle of universe is well-coming you with a SMILE.
After spending a lot of time in the heaven Maharishi Durvasa who was famous for his anger , One day met with Brahma, After observing Maharishi's worried face Brahma asked "" Maharishi each and every comfort is available here then what is keeping you so uneasy that even your face is not reflecting the natural and normal charm of heaven ? ""
“O! Brahma! I was thinking about my grandsons and their grandsons, who are living on earth and in heredity have the same anger which I used to have." replied Durvasa.
"Don't bother about them” Brahma said " Most of them have learned to Smile and are no more slave of anger." This hypothetical dialogue of Brahma and Durvasa is able to clarify the importance of SMILE for our life."
A Smile with a roar is called laugh and according to opinion of most of psychoanalysts the best way of getting rid of agony, worry and unrest is a laugh. When you are spreading SMILE with a roar what else you might get or not but surely you will add a few healthy moments to your life.
Smile is an art also if you can use it properly not only you will be able to add numerous good friends to your friend circle but also will be able to bring closer to your heart to your existing friends.
Smile is the medicine, multipurpose in nature; it helps to destroy all the unrest, agony and frustration. Similar to two sides of coin smile is also capable of producing both [usual] divine and [rare] evil effects. It was mischievous smile of Queen Dropadi, which worked as fuel for the fire of jealousy of Duryodhan, At the Inderaprasth Palace after the Ashavmegh Yagya and forces him to cheat and defeat Yudhashtra in the gamble so that he can compensate his insult done by the smile of Dropadi.
How the smile is capable of bringing even the God in the life, to illustrate it I would like to quote a story heard by us from our mother. There was a widow living in a small village with her only six year old son. One day she told a story to her son about the mercy of the God. The son decided to leave the house and go for the meeting with God. Mother tried her level best but boy remain unmoved from his decision, So she told “O.K. Son tomorrow morning you can go but promise me that if you are unable to find God within two days, you will return home.” As boy was loving mother too much so he promise for that. Next day early in the morning when the boy was ready to leave mother handed over him some food to eat when he feel hungry. The boy went away and the mother started praying God for the safety of the kid. She was surprised to see the son back at home before the night start growing. The face of boy was the clear indication of his success. The boy narrated that it was about the mid day, in the deep forest when he decided to have meal and went to shadow of a tree on the river bank, he saw an old man sleeping there and was awaken by the moments of the boy there. “Is that old man told you, that he is God?” mother asked him.
“No mother! He seems to be deaf and dump.” Boy replied, “We have taken meal together. Together we feed some food to fishes in the river and enjoyed the swimming and dancing moments. At the time of sunset the old man went away without talking a single word with me, but his smile was assuring me that he was none else but the God.”
Now the question of million dollars “When to Smile?" surely this short question belongs to rare type of question whose perfect and universally accepted answer is almost impossible , but certainly there are few situations which we have to keep in our mind ,so our smile will not produce " devil's effect" instead of its usual " Devine effect."
According to tiny knowledge and experience of mine a few such situations are: -
* Don't smile\laugh at a friend who is in trouble, even you warn him repeatedly and he acted against your advice to fall pray of trouble.
* Avoid laughing \ smiling at humanitarian weakness and mistakes committed by others, because usually a common man is deprived of the strong courage needed to acknowledge owns weakness and faults.
* Don't make a joke on others personal life to bring smile on your & others lips. Always remember that, the part of life on which you are making joke, is a prohibited area for the trespassers & hence is called personal life.
This is such an endless list which can be continuously revised & expanded according to our own knowledge and experience. The only thing which we have to keep in our mind is, this God gifted Smile must be utilize only to heal the humanity and not for making a wound to one's vanity.
Expansion of the lips is not called the smile
One that gives relief to the patients
One which gives feeling of HOPE even in the distress
to that light of life we call smile.
Awake friends! Awake! Keep smiling and try to bring smile on the lips and in the heart of each and every which comes in your contact so that not only yours life but also of all of us may become richer with this lively fluid Smile.

Diabetes: Next Epidemic Heath Hazard




Diabetes, a disease cause due to imbalance of hormones in the human bodies, amount of hormone insulin, which regulates the quantity of sugar in body, is the medical cause of this silent but deadly disease. You might be surprise to read that at interval of every 6 minutes a patient of diabetes is dying in this world. I am not a student of medical science but today being World Diabetes Day I wish to share my knowledge with you.

As this disease is related with food and life style, hence, is not restricted to any particular area, but become cosmopolitan. Our country India is among the top ten most affected countries of world. According to recent reports of World Health Organization, Junk food, obesity and rapidly changing life styles are working as the breeding grounds for the easy pray for this disease. As per the reports this is responsible for the untimely death of more the 32 lakhs people yearly through out the world. A huge number of 17 carors 10 lakh of world population was under the influence of this disease in the year 2000 and if it allowed to grow at present rate this number will go high to 36 carors and 60 lakhs by the year 2030. If we are unable to read the danger surely we are going to face this epidemic health hazard in very short future.

WHO reports say that countries like India, China, America, Indonesia, Japan, Brazil, Italy and Bangaladesh are among the high prone area to disease. The worst thing is that a considerable large child population is also among the affected people. As per the Professor Anup Mishra excessive intake of junk food, decrease in the nutritious food and change in the life style are the root caused leading to the development of this disease and as the people are not taking this very seriously hence the number is increasing the algebraic style. Usually people don’t check their body sugar levels at regular interval and even some cases people don’t bother to have medicines at proper time, as this disease is not affecting the day to day life work so adversely, this might be the reason of over looking it.

Dear Friends think before the situations goes behind our control, you can save your self and this world from this deadly disease just by
1] Avoid intake of Junk food as possible as to its minimum.
2] Keep a space for exercise in your daily life at least find time for a walk because as per our Nation father Mahatma Gandhi walking is the queen of all exercises.
3] Have a fix schedule of food intake and follow it strictly.
4] Keep record of your health check.
5] If your are suffering from this, don’t avoid to ignore advise of your doctor.

Giving is the quality which not only brought fame for us but also make us a bit closer to God, because this the God who from our birth to death is giving and giving to us. It is said that being kind is humanity where is being generous is just as of acquiring divine qualities. The most famous way of giving in the human society is Donation though in the present times the definition and meaning of the word had traveled a lot and changed some of modern definitions of the term are
· Amount willingly or unwillingly given for the admission of children in a particular educational institution
· Money that you offer for motivating the finish of your pending work at government and other offices.
· Even now a day’s politician will not talk about deal commission but will persist for a donation to party fund.
The real unchanged and constant meaning of the word donation to me is A help not necessarily in the terms of money only, to the needy, underprivileged and suffering is the donation, it may be even the kind and sympathic treatment given.

Who are entitled for the donation?
Societies and institution engaged in the up lift, betterment and welfare of underprivileged people irrespective of caste creed and nationality.
All the individuals or the organization working for the social awareness.
Similarly those who are working for the removal of the evils of the society and superstitions are also entitled for the donations.
Orphan houses, elderly homes and charitable trust are also belonging to the entitled class.
Individuals, Groups and Institutions working for the social health awareness and guidance about the deadly diseases like AIDS.
You can add a lot to this. Surely I will not agree with the addition of any religious institution because for me, what we are giving to any religious institution is not a donation but is our own way of saying thanks to God.

What best we can donate [Here Donation = Giving]
· To our Children / Younger generations: An example of good social living by our life style, the most importance is the development of the attitude for the respect social customs and traditions.
· To our Friends: Good sympathy rich treatment at every walk of life. I remember a short story – A young boy went to father and expresses his will of opening a shop at the central place of the city, father was with moderate economic status so he replied with words “It is good thing, but I can give only 50,000 bucks to you and that will be sufficient only for the rental and furniture of the shop ,what will be about the goods that you wish to sale in this shop?” but father was surprised to know that boy was already with shop and furniture as his fifty friends by donating 1,000 each have managed this for him.
· To Our Society A good and co operative treatment at every social function.
· To Our Nation Our willingness to live and die for. A behavior filled with obeying the laws of land. If we can develop the attitude shown by Japanese after Second World War India will surely leave mile and miles behind to all other countries.
· To Our Parents A moment of pleasure & pride by our own success or achievement.

Anger the emotion of High Energy

A man becomes immortal, beyond the specific time period only on the basis of touching the extremist corner of one or more emotions. History is full of witness for this, Laila – Majnoon , Shiri – Fariyad, Romeo – Juliet are the few names Which are famous for holding the love emotion, Mercy of Mother Teresa has fetched her world wide popularity, Principles of Buddha and Mahatma Gandhi based on the emotions of peace harmony and non violence are still followed by mosses. Tandav Dance in the emotion of anger has given new name, the terminator, to Lord Shiva.

The most destructive fire available on the earth is neither the fire petrol nor the fire of L.P.G. gas, but the most dangerous fire lies hidden within ourselves and it is the fire of Anger, Which goes on demolishing each and everything that come across to its way. In fact anger holds its own chain reactions also for example from boss to assistant, assistant to wife, wife to maid servant and so on, the fire of anger keeps on spreading.

Effects of Anger

Anger is not only causes to break our relations of several years but as a result make us lonely in the world and our life without the fragrance of love. The fire of anger first sets our mind or think tank to start burning and then kept on its nature of spreading.

Physiologically anger effects our body very adversely, a common saying in India state that a few minutes of anger are sufficient to bring fatigue equal to be caused by several hours of physical labor. In fact anger leads to increase adrenaline and other stress hormones and this can be seen in the form of red face, higher toned voice, faster breathing, tightened muscles of arms and legs. Researches had proved that persons, who are easy prone of anger, get heart attack more easily.

Short temper ness and lack of self control has always proved the china wall for ones entrance in the spiritual world. It was none else but the anger, which taken away the thinking abilities of most knowledgeable person King Ravana and force him to kidnapped Seeta. If the Dropadi had not losed her control most probably world can escaped from the war of Mahabharat. As she knew it was her magical palace but when she saw Duryodhan colliding with one of non visible pillar and in the water, she loosed her control and shouted with a laugh “Blind sons of blind father.”

Root cause of Anger

Do we wish to remain slave of this most destructive fire anger? Or we wish to become mater of it to keep our life loaded to its full capacity of love and understating? If we wish to be master than we have to find out the root causes of the anger so as to eliminate them and instead of slave we can have the life of masters. According to tiny knowledge of mine “Anger get birth from the uterus of famine of understanding, grows with the watering of ego and manure of self control.”

How to over come

No body in world can deny the difficulties at one has to face to develop understanding heart and mind, get rid off ones ego and learn the art of self control, as all these are matter of practice extended to several years but surely there are few steps which are helpful for us to over come this destructive fire of anger.
· Self realization: If you make it habit of considering self before talking surely in most of situations you will be able to avoid the anger.
· A will is always tend to find ways develop a will to control anger.
· Anger at most of times doesn’t work as the instrument of implementation realizes the uselessness of the anger.
· To avoid the occasion it is advisable to leave the place if possible, even if the conversation is in its middle.
· Whenever you feel anger approaching keep your mouth shut.
· Have a glass or two of cold water or count up to ten [even up to hundred] before speaking.
· It is fact opposite natures are intended to neutralize each other as the chemistry students are knowing acids and bases when kept in same container useful product water is formed so to overcome the anger develop sense of humor.

GENERATTON GAP

"Oh! you can't understand this! this is not your time! this is our life funda!" this one sentence you sure to hear from Indian teenager of present era, when some one elder, ask about the behavior of them, some of youth go even further by adding " Remember there is a generation gap between you and us."
Now the series of questions start taking place. What is generation gap? How this gap is created? Are we never be in the position of filling this gap? Are the two adjoining generations of human beings will remain cursed to live for ever with this meaning less word? and so on.
In my own view human generations are flowing in the stream of time and all the past present or the futures generations are tied up with each, science has also proved by discovering genes and heredity. Now how is possible that the things tide together and in the same flow, have a such huge gap between them that one look completely different from other and separate presence of that can be observed ? Surely it is not possible and it means there is no gap between the generations, Whatever we are observing in our day to day life is not more than an optical illusion. But surely there is something which is creating a difference, a kind of separating line between the present and upcoming generation of human beings. Since the start of existence on earth human has a natural tendency of getting bored even from the top most interesting and comfortable aspect of the life, that's why love is always in the search of new ways of expressions. The curious nature of human doesn't allow him to remain quite and keep him on continuous search of new ways and style of doing the same work. If you wish, you can call generation gap, to these efforts of locating new work style.
What happens, when we see present youth adopting an approach [even for the creations and maintenance of social relations] unknown and non familiar to us, we often look-over it with a comment " Today's youth is beyond control and not ready to understand". In fact our this attitude is giving birth to irresponsible behavior of the youth and this is so called generation gap. What must be done by us in such situations, is to find out time for them. After all they are our future and hence are the most valuable assets. Can you see misuse of your assets? surely not. than try to understand what change youth wish to have in their life, be there with them to guide and help. Leaving alone them is just as of dropping a non swimmer into deep sea, it is possible that dropped person may come out as the perfect swimmer but the most chances are of loosing him for ever. My tiny knowledge suggest that if we don't wish to hear this non realistic and meaning less word generation gap than we must adopt
The human life and natural laws are constant and unchanged but the human made things are changing with the time and life style hence it become of no use to compare present youth with the youth we were.
Changing technologies are sure to affect our life style. How many of us, who are at and across the fifty, have heard or handled a laptop or a mobile during their adolescence stage of life? Demands of this changed life style will surely be different and if we are not aware of, these demands will remain unknown to us and making us deprived of helping & guiding our present youth with our experiences.
Present youth has to keep it mind that present generation was also part of youth brigade some time back, there is nothing new which was not done by their elders the only difference is of the style and equipments. We were used of writing letters and the present youth is using SMS, Scrap and e-mail etc for the same purpose.
It is responsibility of present youth to make aware and familiar the present generation with that latest technology, only than the youth will be in position of taking the advantage of experiences of present generation. It is sheer nonsense that we learn to remain away from fire only after our own hands are burnt in the fire.
My dear friends, you are of my generation or of the younger generation try to implement this simple thing in our life, make your father/mother your best friend, as my father was or my son is [initially this will look impossible and hard to work out but this is just as of schooling all the lower classes than of ones seems ease]. I assure you but more perfectly you, your self will feel that your life is become more cheerful, more enjoyable and more worth for living. Just develop sense of understanding, Surely the word generation gap will become a forgotten past for you. In Hindi it is said " Jab Jago Tabhi Savera" [ It is morning when you awake].

Bunch of Proven Talent: Failed again

Second defeat in raw has proved that we Indians ever can’t be in the position of understanding and following the American concept of Between the jobs, which the Australian coach Chapel is trying to implement with the Indian cricket team. We Indians have never faith in hire and fire system.

In Australia or any of European country this concept of do the available job and keep the search on for the better one can be worked out successfully but as the traditionally we Indians are believers of rebirth hence stability holds more importance in our life. We can’t work to our capacities in a suspicious atmosphere, doubts are always proven hurdles for our success, here just saying that we are thinking of considering some one else for your place is more than sufficient for a performance below the capacities. In Asia and particularly in our part of land success story doesn’t moves with the same path and equipments as our life style, our thought process and even our decision making system is different from the rest of the world.

In the Maharashtra, part of India, from where I am, there is tradition of marriage only after a permanent job/ business. This again suggests the importance of stability and security in our life. What Chapel and Cricket board did, is by taking a strong anti Ganguli policy, has send a message of un stability and being non secure to all the players of Indian cricket team and result is that a team with proven talent failed to qualify for the semifinals.

There is no need to go for more stress for physical training. We Indians have proved it at many occasions that we are mentally strong enough to overcome our physical shortcomings. I recall story of Major Shaitansingh, who alone held the post against china in 1962 war. All the coach and board have to work a policy that gives confidence to players of being stable and secure. If that happens, Indian team is equipped with the talent and capacities that our captain will be in the position of holding the world cup 2007 in the West Indies.

HONESTY

Once a villager asked to a saint,” Sir! You are visiting place to place. You are having knowledge of various religions, can you tell me any one idiom, which is used in all parts of the world and is an integral part of all the religious learning? The reply was “Honesty is the best policy.”
What we are observing today in our present day to day life, we are using this phrase “Honesty is the best policy” without understanding Honesty in its proper and wide sense, and subsequently we are being encircled by various problem storms. The two most damaging storms of all these are:
1] Creation of self centered nature and
2] Elopement of values from our day-to-day life.

Cross your heart, feel the light of almighty in your heart and then tell honestly, how honest are you? To be an honest person we must have the fallowing seven qualities. The first quality is the Humble nature, which helps to reach the truth. The second quality is the Orderly actions towards the search of the truth and ultimately to reach reality. Third quality belongs to Narration; one must be capable of narrating “truth”, the result of search to mosses.

Fourth quality is the Execution; one can work as the executive of the laws of truth and fairness with equal success not only with others but him-self also. The fifth quality is Sacrifice; one must be ready to sacrifice owns interest in the search of truth because without loosing any thing we can’t gain any thing.

The second last quality is the Trust-worthiness; one must have a behavior such that mosses can have a trust in the person. The last quality is Yielding nature; one must be able of producing good thoughts, behavior, even in the worst situations. Let consider a scene of Mahabharat, when Yudhshtra loosed his entire kingdom, him-self, his brothers and wife in the gambling with Shakuni, Yudhshtra was knowing that all will take his side, only he has to say that he was cheated by Shakuni, but his policy of honesty was not allowing him to do so. In fact honesty makes our behavior such, which we wish to have with us from the others.

According to our Hindu faith we are here on earth to work for the achievement of Moksha and the first step to our, this prime object of life is non-else but is the honesty. Literally honesty means the quality of Truth fullness and true means real, hence we can say that honesty is the quality, which is full of reality. As the life is real, similarly Moksha is also real and we can have it only in the exchange of real i.e. honesty.

How honesty makes a person great, immortal and beyond the time, to know this, we have to go in the childhood of late Mahatma Gandhi. Once school inspector came to visit his school and ask all the students of his class to write a few words, Mohandas wrote a word in incorrect way, the teacher ask him to correct it by copping from the adjacent student, but as honesty of Gandhi ji was not allowing for it, hence he refuse to do so and accepted the punishment. This honesty laid down the foundation stone on which his life building was build later on and what a marvelous and splendid was that even after more than half century of demolishing it, we are forced to remember his with all due respect and love as our “Father of Nation”.

Don’t we wish to have a life building, one like of the Mahatama Gandhi, for our self ? Then why we are waiting? Let us , we all , at this moment start working to gain all the seven qualities to bring honesty in our daily life.

DREAMS

When for the tasting the prohibited fruit God, ordered man to leave the heaven. Man prayed God “ please do give me something, which can keep my life as colorful is this one.” “ O.K.” God replies “ I am giving you the power of dreaming and if you can use all of your mental and physical abilities to realize your dreams you will be able not only to keep your life colorful like this but also will be able to construct your own paradise.
Think of the organizations like Rotary, it is neither a social reform nor a military revolution, in fact Rotary is the realization of dreams of the peoples, from the different walk of life, of different race, caste and country, like you and me, with a common ideology of service to humanity.
Let-us tries to find out what dreams are? The entire medical students know that a human being holds two minds:
Conscious and sub conscious one
What we are doing in our daily life is the act of our conscious mind and whatever we are dreaming is the act of our sub conscious mind. In fact dream are the kids, given birth by the “Reality “ [Mother] and “ Imagination “ [Father], hence dreams are the mixture of truth and the thought power of human being.
From the dawn of human history dreams have played a very significant and important role in the advancement of the human beings. The entire world of chemistry students are well versed with the Kekule’s dream sequence, which helped him to suggest the structure of Benzene like organic compounds. These compounds, in their molecule contain equal number of Carbon and Hydrogen atoms; hence it was not possible to arrange them in usual normal linear structure. This was a problem for the world and Kekule was involved in suggesting the solution to such a great extant, that one night he saw a dream in which six snakes are holding each others tail in mouth forming a hexagonal structure. This dream helped him to solve the problem of the molecular structure of the Benzene like organic compounds, by suggesting the hexagonal structure. This is the one example to show the great value of dreams in our life.
Dreams are in fact positive vision of life, whatever seems difficult to achieve by conscious mind, sub-conscious mind suggest ways to achieve it. Rotary is going to taste the success in the dream project of “Polio Free World” why? Only due to fact that Rotarians worldwide dare to dream it and as per the instructions of God utilized all their physical and mental abilities to achieve it.
In my childhood I have heard one quote “ success is slave of those, who dare to dream it”, and in my personal opinion, Dreams are nothing but the achievement of the goals of life. People, who Dare to face the Real Examination are entitled for the Achievement of Mental Satisfaction. So dear keep continue dreaming and keep your life full of success.

FRIENDS

Human life is the ocean of emotions and some emotions tend to acquire name, one such emotion is friendship. The recipient and the deliverer of this emotion are called friends. Friendship and friends are in the existence since the early dawn of the civilization on the mother earth. Who can forget the famous friends of Mahabharat era Lord [God] Shrikrishna and poor Brahman [Priest] Sudama. Even the largest film producing industry bollywood is not unattached by this, from time to time this emotion is used as the central idea of the film. It may the oldies like Dosti, A Rajshree production or may be the recent past Dostana, A successful film of the super star Amitabh Bachan. One thing is sure that when ever a film is produced on this topic, it hits box office collection hugely, because this is the one emotion which attract us most and for which are our intuitions are always filled with curiosity.
Human is said a social animal and human life goes on with interacting other people from this variety of human sea, with a few we fall in friendship. Friends or friendship can be classified into following three categories :
One who comes for the reason
One who comes for the season
one who comes for the forever

Reasonable Friends
In fact these people can't be termed as friends, though it is a fact that our mutual behavior is one like the friends but it is fact that this behavior is born from the uterus of a specific reason. As soon as this reason goes away we forget about each other.
Seasonal Friends
This is yet another unnatural or accidental emotion of friendship, these people enter in our life for a short spawn of time, We spent a short specific period of our life with them, enjoy some moments of pleasure together, share our thoughts and dreams with each other and after that specific period it is all over like the packing up of the woolen cloth at the end of winter season.
Friends For Forever
In fact this the selective class of people for whom the pronunciation Friends was created. These are in our life neither for reason nor for the season, they are spontaneous and natural entrant of our life. Once they enter in our life, they remain there, if not for the whole life, at least for many many years to come. Thus we say Friends For Forever.
A few situations that help us to identify these real friends are
* A real friend will never hesitate to criticise you, as critic view help us to know our weakness and every one wish to have strong friends.
* A real friend will be seen around you in your difficult times as real friends never wait for help request.
* A real friends will always find time for you instead of asking to visit at a convenient time he will make the time convenient for you.
* A real friend will always have a faith in your and never ask or believe in rumors about you.
If you are finding a faithful shoulder to carry over all your sorrow, agony and unhappiness assume your self blessed by God as in this world, the ocean of self centered emotions, you are with a true Friend.

Human Life and Values

How lonely man has become due to the run for the search of source of physical happiness? What a pity! To day human life become tasteless without the sweet and sour taste of family relations. Presently we are running towards the continuously becoming deeper and deeper valley of distress without bothering about the values.
Valueless behavior of human is the hottest topic of discussion everywhere. Out of the various reasons of the elopement of values from the human life, the most significant five are:
· Non availability of examples
· Breaking of combine family tradition
· Increasing attraction towards the source of physical happiness
· Money – to become axis of life
· Education – a means of earning only
Let we have a discussion on all of theses one by one.

Examples and life values
All most all the people, who are professionally analyzing human behavior, are of the opinion that whatever a human learns during the life almost 90% of that is learned by the analysis of the behavior of others and copying it.
The learning process of the kid doesn’t starts from the schooling but way back from the, Mother’s lap, home, family and society. Does all these are enriched with inspiring examples? In India a historical sentence “ Yatha Raja Tatha Praja” [Public will behave like the King] is expressing the importance and necessity of the examples in the process of cultivation of values. Once Mahatma Gandhi has said, “don’t hate criminals, hate crime, because it is the social environment and society, which are responsible, to a great extant for the criminal behavior of human.
We Indians are remembering Shriram, the son of king Dashrath, as the God and pray him for our prosperity and well being. Why? The reason is none else but only and only due to values reflecting behavior of Shriram in each and every aspect of life. It may his obedience to elders, may his nature to scarify for the younger brother, or may be his believe in the principle of equality of human beings, which force him to eat Ber [a fruit] at the hands of lower caste woman Shabari. Still we are paying our hearty homage to late Mahatma Gandhi by remembering him as Rashtra-pita [Father of Nation], similarly our hearts will never dried up of the memories of the Bhagatsingh, Rajguru and Azad, because these were the people, who by their inspiring behavior not only sets an example for the creation of urge for the independence but also generated the emotion to scarify each and everything for the achievement of independence.
Once somebody asked Mahatma Buddha, “Sir! I wish to become a saint like you. You are guiding whole world, can you help me by suggesting the easiest way of becoming a saint.” Buddha replied “oh! Dear, only you have to keep correct your behavior, when others will start imitating your behavior, you automatically will become saint”. Does our present family atmosphere and socio environment are giving the same illustrated behavior to the younger generation? In my view to know what younger generation if getting a hypothetical dialogue between Mahatma Gandhi and Rajeev Gandhi, who meet in the Heaven will be sufficient.
· Oh! Dear Rajeev! How is mine India? How she is progressing?
· Oh! Grandpa, India is progressing at a very high rate. See you was killed by the bullets of a pistol, after that the Indian progress touched its high point so my mother Indira Gandhi got numerous bullets from the machine gun, but the progress was not stopped even here, hence I was dispatched here by virtue of a human bomb.
Remember any reform tend to achieve the destination of success only if it is started from home [our own self]. So my dear friends awake! Awake! Not from today but from this vary moment separate your self from the valueless behavior, to become not only the inspiring example for the younger generation but also the foundation stone of value regarding future human life.

Breaking of combine family tradition
How much progress we Indians has achieved? Starting with the principle of “Humanity is a family” today we are reaching to a point, where we didn’t wish to have our elderly Mother and Father staying with us, meagerly due to the reason that we think they might prove an obstacle for our personal life.
Combine Family Tradition was the continuously growing source of life values, which is going to dry up due to our own actions. In combine family the responsibility of growing kids was laying at the hands of the elderly persons of the family, who by virtue of their life experiences were able to keep the illustrated behavior and most of times were able to prevent the younger generations from going on the path of valueless behavior. Today by shouting the slogan of personal independence, we have turned this mighty ocean into smaller ditches. When on receiving a telephone call from an undesired person we ask our kids to convey about our non-availability, we almost forget that our kids are learning to speak untruth in certain situations and in fact this is the poisonous seed from, which the giant and branched tree of valueless behavior has grown up. The hugeness of this tree is raising our body hairs with fear.
Surely I am not going to suggest the restart of combine family system, because it will be like the rotating the time clock in the backward direction, which is not only impossible for us but also beyond our reach. Surely it is within our reach to expand our family circle a bit from our present one of Husband, Wife and Kids, so that our elderly Mother and Father can also be accommodated in the family.

Increasing attraction towards the source of physical pleasure
In my childhood I have heard, Human is committing sin only, when his requirements are not cooping with his income. Now, after being grown up I found it a fact and many incidents of our present socio-surroundings are turning this fact into a hard bitter truth. Keep it in your mind, when requirements are not fulfilled only and only un-satisfaction is generated. Have a look around you, in search of one and only one satisfied person. I am confident that, if your search is not impossible, than surely it will be hard for you to take your search to the destination of success.
Our tendency of achieving more and more physical pleasure, force us to earn more and more money. In this blind race of earning more and more money, we often forget about good/bad or right/wrong, which results in the creation of self centered behavior. Today honestly our behavior become such that, we are sad not because, we have any scarcity in any aspect of our life but because of the reason why the others are enjoying the pleasure of life. Surely this emotion of jealousy works as the fuel of our fire of selfishness and make our life and behavior more and more valueless.

Money – Axis of Life
Present era can be called as the economic era. In fact when money become more and more important part of our life, it start working as the foundation stone of our valueless behavior. Presently human life, from birth to death, is revolving on the axis of money. The mirage of earning more and more money has fulfilled human life with valueless and only the valueless behavior.
What more disgrace of God we will have? Today in each aspect of life we are having leaders, not well cultural, well-civilized persons but the persons, who can burn money, which even might be earned and collected by the illegal ways. Nobody at any moment can deny the importance of money in the life but the relation of the values and money must be of the salt [money] and the flour [values]. Unfortunately we are having situation just opposite of it. In our present life, the money occupies more important place of flour and the lesser important place is being given to the values. Surely, this is area, where our point of view needs to be change to its totality. Only then we will be able to provide a value full life to our younger generation.

Education – A Device of Money Earning
If we can open our eyes and observe our present socio-human environment, we can conclude that, our present society education means the acquirement of the abilities essential for the earning money. According to Indian faith, education is the third eye of human beings. It is the education, which has made men more civilized, more cultural and different from other mammalian animals. The same education got this meager status of abilities required for the money earning, hence a vacuum of values is generated in our life.
Today our common social thought is that, our kids will get as higher earning jobs as higher degrees [not the education] they acquire. Our attitude towards the education tends to create a desire in our kids for the gaining the degrees by all means. What more displeasing situation we face, today we are measuring teacher’s educational abilities, from the number of pass students in the subject thought by the teacher. We are appointing persons in our office not according to their honesty, sincerity but on the basis of the degrees they hold.
It is the necessity of the hour to alter our this habit of deciding ones ability and efficiency only on the basis of the degrees acquired by the person. We must take in consideration the civilized, well-mannered and cultural behavior, along with the attitude of the person towards the life, while deciding the abilities of a person. Dear friends, this is the only way to convert our valueless behavior into one, which is enriched with values.

Love of Indians for the celebrations is unique, enthusiasm for the festivals is beyond the comparison so it is truly said that India is the country of festivals. History revels that Deepavali or Diwali was the festival of Hindus but changing time has converted this festival into the most celebrated festival of Indian spread all over the world. Deepavali has expanded lights and become festival of India from the festival of Hindus. India, the only country of world with most variations about the religious faith, teaching and setting example for the religious unity and harmony by celebrating this festival in real grand style.
Historic Stories [Reasons of Celebration]

Day before the Diwali on Chaturthi Narkasur was killed by Lord Shri Krishna hence on next day Deepmala celebration was performed by citizen of Gokul.

It was also Kartik Amavasa on which Shri Krishna left the physical body.
This was the day on which during the Mahabharat era Maharaj Yudishtar started Rajsuau Yug hence on the night a special light celebration was done.
On request of Gods, Lord Vishu bagged of three feet area from the Generous and powerful King Bali and keep third step to send him to Patal loak. This is celebrated as the second day of the festival.

24 th Tirthkar Mahaveer swami of Jain religion got the nirvan [end of physical life] on this day .
Beside these there may be some other reasons unknown to me.
The Celebrations
Though the Diwali is said to be festival of three Days namely Laxmi Poojan, Bali Prtipada and Bhau Bij [Full moon day]but the celebrations starts with Dhan Teras, the 13th day of dark part of the month. It is a epic that every one must purchase something for the kitchen so in the coming year kitchen remain filled with all necessary things, though with the time tradition of purchasing Gold, Diamonds etc. has also become the trademark for the day.
On the day of Narak chaturthi specially in south India people get up early in the morning say 4'o clock and as per the tradition have the oil bath. Than comes the real big day Laxmi Poojan Deepavali. On this day Worship of Goddess Laxmi - the Goddess of wealth is performed in variety of ways. Before the start of April to March accounting year this day was also known as the Bahi Pooja Day, still so many people worship their account books to be used for next year on this day because for the Indians still business is the transactions of truth.
The last day is Badu[ in sindhi] or Bhau Beej, on this day married sister invites her brothers at her residence and felicitate them. There is also tradition that on this day brothers are giving gifts to sisters. The mark of festival are the sweets and crackers as the diwali day being amavasaya a day without moon in the sky but the fire crackers that are burnt on this day makes the sky a life time experience for the non Indians and a scene worth to watch.
Health Aspect
This festival is celebrated at the end of rainy season and start of the winter season. As per the tradition all the houses are cleaned, recolored and decorated with flowers and perfumes to welcome Goddess Laxmi. In this way a hygienic atmosphere is created though the fire crackers produce air pollution but the interiors of houses become protective from the diseases may caused by this season change.
Economic Aspect
This is time of highest tide of the business ocean. All the companies plans there market stargazes well in advance to meet with with the real high market demands in the fields of starting with cloths to high tech electronic goods it is said that almost 40% of sales targets are achieved during these five six days.

Obesity : Causes & Preventative Measures

Among the worries which are the production of recent era, undoubtedly obesity is the front runner and attracting attention of major share of human population. What is this obesity which is hottest topic of the discussion among the people from the one corner of the globe to another corner? In our common language of conversation being over weight is termed as the obesity where as the expertise of the medical science or from the field of dieticians will define this with the help of particular term called BMI or on the basis of size and number of fat cells present in the body.
BMI or Body mass Index is the calculation done on the basis of body weight and space occupied in simple words by dividing the body weight [in kilogram] with the height [in sq.m] what we get is our BMI, and all the persons with over 30 BMI are obese. Our body is constituted with a fixed number of various types of cell usually body of a normal sized person contains 30 to 35 billion fat cell. Male with 25% and a female with 30% increase in these cells are said to obese.
Basically obesity is the process of gaining weight and usually it takes some tens of years. Whenever we took food energy in excess of our body consumption we tend to store it within the body in the in the form of fats. In fact the major cause of obesity is our life style and just as the joke it is said that this is a royal assets poor people are not entitled to acquire it. As our life become more comfortable the chance of being obese goes more on the positive side, as the comfortable life helps us to store the fats. Our eating habits and some other habits are also making us to fall the pray of obesity. In some people a tendency of eating even beyond the hunger is observed, In some others people it is a habit of eating while watching the TV. here also unknowingly we eat more than our requirements. Some people are seen with a habit of taking at least one meal out in the hotels or restaurants, this is also a favorable factor for the development of obesity. In the hotels most stress is given on the test of food and in the greed of test we tend to eat more.
Continuous illness and side effects of some medicines are also leading towards the development of obesity. Series of losing weight by the process of dieting is another reason as it disturbs water cycle in our body.
Recent research of the topic also indicates that obesity can also be a transferred from one generation to another as heredity. How the our health is effected from obesity that we are going to discuss in the next topic A self control and cure from the dietary diseases.
If we can chose to implement a simple work eating plane for self we easily can escape from the trap of this highly health destroying term obesity. The simple plan includes :
Regular & not to hunger intake of food.
A good walk say for 2-3 kilometers will help you to burn the extra calories, that otherwise will stored as the fats. Our father of Nation Bapu [Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi] was of the opinion that walking is the queen of exercises.
Instead of going your office at third floor by lift use staircase to burn extra calories.
Try to know about from your doctor which are foods with high calories and try to avoid them. For example cord fish is a Non vegetarian food stuff with low calories in comparison of other food of this class.
If you are unable to overcome your temptation of watching television [TV] than instead of watching by laying on bed seat on chair and eating while the watching is strictly prohibited.

SUCCESS

A continuous process of overcoming of owns mistakes, setting new examples and leading from the front are the some of the phrases which can be associated with the success. Consider the two most popular stars of 70's and 80's from the bollywood, Rajesh Khana & Amitabh Bachan, both have touched a never before touched popularity graph and become role model of millions of Indians but as the Rajesh Khana took that as the ever possible highest achievement and is out of the focus today, Where as for Amitabh, it was a continuous flow and he has moved it . The result is Amitabh is still in the list of popular stars, even after entrance of his son Abhishek in the same erina. Many people who test the success , think that they have touched the virgin height of their field hence no body can reach up to them. They often forget that "There is always a space vacant above" . All the records are created to for being broken, The real success is not the reaching on top but is the to remain on top.
Like the food dishes success doesn't have any recipe so that you can add the ingredients in a certain pre fixed ratio and test the success just as of dish. Success is not a destination but is a continuously on going journey during which you have to face and tackle various situations and problems and your this capacity to keep calm and coping with adverse time, is the basis to define quantity and quality of your success. The factors that helps to be successful are varying with time, person and situations but still we can identify some universal ones and some of these are Hardworking, Knowledge, Innovative Nature, Vision, Attitude, Luck and so on.
Success doesn't moves with smooth express highway roads, you have to a perfect cross country runner to achieve it and do remember without handy tool of knowledge no one in the world has tested the success. In your surroundings you are sure to find at least a couple of millions other people engaged with the job of yours, until and unless you are not innovative your work will not look differ from the lot and success will be at the same distance from you, just as of the faience of a poor person keep the distance from him. Your success ratio is directly proportional to your innovative nature. [ Here innovative nature means doing the same work in different style and manner to achieve a desirable result].
You need an adhesive also, to keep you stick with your ideas and work plan on the roads going towards the success , as you sure to face ups and downs. If you can't concentrate and keep your destination within your sight, surely you will be on the looser side. It is said that " Success is slave of those, who dare to dream it and capable of handling it." Here your attitude of looking towards the given situation and utilising the situation to opt maximum benefit in owns favors will help you to keep a constant flow of success in your life. Look into your own inner view, Are you ready to flow with the success? Can you dare to dream success ? Are you capable of handling the options that were opened for you due to success ? If all or majority of these are affirmative than who is saying that you are not on the roads leading to success.

BE POSITIVE

Merry Quiery, the only lady of the world, twice winner of the Nobel Prize, was experimenting for the isolation of radium from the pinch blendy [ore], she performed about one hundred experiments without achieving her aim. Many of her colleagues ask her to drop the idea, as she was unsuccessful in reaching her destination. Merry Quiery replied, “Who says that I am unsuccessful? I am on the road of success because now I know that radium can’t be isolated by these hundred ways.” What these words are expressing? Only and only positive frame of her mind. It is the part of history that at last she was able to isolate radium to bag her second Nobel Prize. So my dear friends, if we wish to win the race we have to be positive.
Positive nature helps to find out the shining side of the worst situation and hence help to solve the problem. Consider the famous tour of England cricket team to Australia, the famous bodyline series, the “Ashes”. Though Australia loosed the series, but it results in the use of helmet by the batsman. It is the positive vision to the Bodyline series, which is saving life of the players, from the fast rising death on the fields of modern cricket, in the form of helmet.
One can stand up even from, the ones ash, if the heart and mind are in the state of positive ness. Let consider the example of Japan after the Second World War, compare the economics status of the country now and than. The difference is as high as is the Everest. This is only the attitude of Japanese, to be positive. This quality of being positive helped them to start rebuild the nation with their own limitations and this positive ness helped them to such a great extant that in most parts of the worlds shops are having a good quantity of the products from the factories of Japan. Positive vision intended to generate courage, this courage helps to face the devil. Remember as soon as you face the devil, you will find him running away from you.
I, in my childhood read somewhere that, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru once said, “the person and the nation, who doesn’t know how to die, they also doesn’t know how to live”. Theses words are the perfect expression of being positive. Usually what we think, life ends at the death but being Indians, we know life is extended even beyond the death and we work accordingly. This positive vision to life helps us to do more and more for deprived section of the society, city, nation and the world.
Once Florence Nightingale has said, “ I know, I am alone, I cannot do all the work, which is pending but I am sure of one thing that at least some of this work, I can do and I will do that”. So dear friends forget about all and keep your positive attitude intact surely success will behave as your slave.
