आँखों प र चश्मा, हाथ में लाठी और चेहरे पर मुस्कान, दिल में था उनके हिंदुस्तान । हमको सही मार्ग दिखाया, सत्य और अहिंसा का पाठ पढ़ाया । राष्ट्रपिता वे कहलाते थे, हमारे प्यारे बापू थे । 2 अक्टूबर एक खास दिन है, इसमें एक इतिहास छिपा है। इस दिन जन्मे थे गाँधी जी, हुआ दुनिया में अद्भुत प्रकाश । सीधा सादा वेश तुम्हारा नहीं कोई अभिमान, एक लाठी के दम पर तुमने भारत माँ को आज़ाद कराया, रखी देश की शान। वे थे निस्वार्थ, शांत, निडर और निश्चिंत जीवन जीने वाले एक महान व्यक्ति, उच्च नैतिक मूल्यों और पारस्परिक कौशल की मिसाल। लोगों को सच्चाई, सत्याग्रह का कठिन मार्ग पढ़ने वाले, दुनिया भर में नागरिक अधिकारों और स्वतंत्रता के लिए भारत छोड़ो आंदोलन को बढ़ावा देने वाले । ईमानदार और सबके प्यारे, हमारे बापू मीत हमारे ।   सच्चाई का लेकर शस्त्र और अहिंसा का लेकर अस्त्र, लोगों के मन से अंधकार मिटाया,  बापू ने सबको यही सिखाया । गांधीजी का चश्मा अद्भुत व निराला, देखा जिसने स्वतंत्र भारत का भविष्य उजियाला । गांधीजी के चश्मे ने देखी कई अनोखी बातें, नहीं भूल सकते इस दिन को, इसमें तिरंगे की शान हैं। ...

A girl met with an accident at the age of 16 and her leg had to be amputated as it became gangrenous. She had two option 1) to indulge in self-pity 2) accept the faith and rise-up. She went for the second, she fought all the struggles she endured in her life and turned the difficulties of her life, to stepping stones for success. She is Sudha Chandran. As you all must be aware, she is an Indian film and television actress and an accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer.  She was able to achieve this as she had the right attitude i.e. determination, tenacity and above all plenty of enthusiasm. It’s your ATTITUDE, not your APTITUDE, that determines your ALTITUDE! I repeat it’s your ATTITUDE, not your APTITUDE, that determines your ALTITUDE! Your attitude, your approach is everything. And to be successful in any sphere of life we need to have the right attitude, must approach any task or job with a strong willpower, positive mental attitude and zeal. It is important for us to have...

There lived a rich family of four with the mother, father and two young boys. Even though they had a lot in life, they complained all day long. The children would complain of not having a Limousine (a fancy car) and a home theatre. On the other hand, there was a very poor family who were barely able to make both the ends meet. Even though they did not have enough resources to satisfy their needs, they were happy and contented with all they had. They always prayed and thanked God for all they he had given him and never complained because they knew that there were many others living in worsen conditions than them. At this point, I am remined of a famous quote by Mahatma Gandhi-  “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.” We need to stop complaining. Whatever has been given, learn to accept and appreciate it. Be happy with whatever you have. It is enough to meet with your needs. The life we have is full of choices. Do you remember that...

Once there was a teacher who was discussing with her students about the side effects of getting angry. She told them that anger was the worst emotion and everyone should leave the company of this strong emotion. She told them different ways by which they could control it. One day, a student of her class had not completed his homework, so the teacher got angry, and started scolding him. The day prior to this she was telling the students not to get angry under any circumstance, but now she was the one getting angry on them.  Isn't this a tragic irony? I don't understand myself and go out to teach others. That's the kind of teacher I am! ARE YOU SUCH KIND OF A TEACHER? I have a short story for you, to make you understand this well. Once a woman came to a wise man with his son. She said, “This boy eats a lot of sugar. I have tried all the ways to stop him but he never listens to me. My words fall on deaf ears all the time. What should I do? I am really disturbed.” The w...

This is still the sad but a true picture of our society in many rural villages and orthodox families. You are a girl, you cannot go to the school, only boys have the privilege; You need to stay at home and help your mother with household chores.  I often wonder why is there inequality among boys and girls, men and women? Why are boys treated as superior and girls as inferior? Why are only women and girls told to engage themselves in household chores? Why can't they pursue their higher education? Why are only boys told to continue their higher studies and pursue their dreams? As per the constitutional right 1 - RIGHT TO EQUALITY, don't both boys and girls have equal rights? Aren't both equal before the law?  If yes, then why does such kind of gender discrimination still exist? WHY DO WE TREAT WOMEN AS INFERIOR? After all they are the ones who give birth to kings.   Once upon a time there was a father and her beautiful, loving daughter.  Father:  "I will g...

एक बार की बात है, रेवती नाम की एक लड़की थी। उसके पिता दर्जी थे और उसकी माँ एक गृहिणी थी। वह बहुत गरीब थे | रेवती पाँच साल की हो गई थी और उसके स्कूल जाने का वक्त हो गया था । वह आसाम के एक गाँव में रहती थी, जहाँ लड़कियों को पढ़ाई के लिए प्रोत्साहित नहीं किया जाता था और उन्हें घर के काम करने को कहा जाता था | लेकिन उसके माता-पिता हमेशा चाहते थे कि वह पढ़ाई करे, स्वतंत्र होकर सभी सुख-सुविधाओं के साथ जीवन व्यतीत करे और एक आरामदायक जीवन जिए। वे अपना पेट काट कर उसे अच्छी शिक्षा देने की कोशिश कर रहे थे। उन्होंने उसे आसाम के एक अच्छे स्कूल में दाख़िला दिलाया जहाँ उसे पढ़ाई व खेल कूद के सभी अवसर प्रदान किए जाते । जब उसने स्कूल जाना शुरू किया तो उसे बहुत अच्छा लगा, लेकिन जैसे-जैसे साल बीतते गए, उसने धीरे-धीरे पढ़ाई में रुचि खो दी और स्कूल छोड़ने का फैसला किया, क्योंकि उसे पढ़ाई पसंद नहीं आ रही थी। जब वह पाँचवीं कक्षा में आई, तो उसने अपनी पढ़ाई छोड़ दी और अपने माता-पिता से कहा कि वह घर पर  उनकी  मदद करेगी और छोटे बच्चों के साथ खेलेगी| उसके माता-पिता बहुत दुखी थे क्योंकि पढ़ाई के बिना वह ...

From a spirited body free to roam, To always staying at home. In the face of the pandemic, gripped by fear and despair, They stood tall, showing how much they care. When was the last time we acknowledged them? When was the last time we worried about them? When was the last time we recognized their endless care? When was the last time we realized the endless burdens they bear? It’s been long their loved ones have met, and ages since they peacefully slept. Tirelessly working twenty four cross seven, Risking their lives to provide us heaven. Doctors, nurses, policemen and the sanitation custodian, Our nation's heroes in every situation. Not all superheroes wear capes, Ours are seen wearing uniforms, scrubs and drapes in their daily race. Now, it’s time to acknowledge their sacrifices and tireless fight. To appreciate these warriors who bring us the light. Thank you for your endless unity, For protecting us all in the time of uncertainty. We salute you, our heroes, with gratitude so tr...
