I am weighing feather-light, bloody feather-light and you know why? It is because I am relieved from the services of my organization and my farewell gift are handed over to me at the age of 56 by the respected Managing Director of age 70 years.

If the world is a stage and we are actors to perform our roles then we call that the most painful load on any one’s shoulder is – the dead body of the offspring carried to the funeral pyre by his father. Every language has got its nuance and in the language of Hindi, this is best described as - दुनिया का सबसे बड़ा बोझ है बाप के कंधे पर मरे बेटे का जनाज़ा |

                In the same token, the lightest life lived by anyone is – dying at the age of the teen.

            But when the roles are played by senile seniors on their able colleagues, it is the height of “actions by third grade scoundrels’.”

Economic Recovery post-covid19: a Layman’s Viewpoints : Dr. Manoj Kumar Patel : Economy and Economics: An economy encompasses all activity related to production, consumption, and trade of goods and services in an area. An economy applies to everyone from individuals to entities such as corporations and governments. A region's economy is connected with things like how many goods and services are produced and how much money people can spend on these things. The economy is measured by the Gross Domestic Product or GDP. When the GDP growth rate turns negative, the economy enters a recession. The most important part of the economy is consumer spending. So, as a rule of thumb, more the transactions and spending by the consumers better is the economy of that country. Thus money should be available in the hands of the consumers. The other three components are business expenditures, government spending, and net exports. Economics is a social science that deals wi

Every year, India celebrates September 5, the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, as National Teachers’ Day.   According to media reports, it is believed that while Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was serving as the second President of India in 1962, his students approached him to seek permission to celebrate his birthday – September 5 – as a special day. To this, he instead made a request to observe September 5 as Teachers’ Day, to recognize the contribution of teachers to society. This is the genesis of the Teacher’s Day in India. Hindu Sanatana culture is filled with teachings that help enlighten students and teachers alike to follow paths that can help a civilized society. THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF A STUDENT: In Shrimad Bhagavat Gita, Shree Krishna, in one of the verses (4:33) tells Arjun that it is good to do physical acts, ritualistic ceremonies, fasts, mantra chants, holy pilgrimages, but if they are not performed with knowledge, they remain mere physical activities.

The Golden Hearts and the Rusted Gold

The Golden Hearts and the Rusted Gold Gold  is one of the least reactive elements.  Gold does not combine easily with oxygen so it remains shining. It neither does   rust  nor gets tarnished. Impurities, however, it can spoil the quality of gold. Humans are just like pure gold. We all have born with a pure heart. But as we grow chronologically, layers of impurities get settled over our pure hearts, and gradually these get spoiled. We do not take diligent care, the way we take care of our jewelry, to keep our hearts shining. We ignore the layers of dirt over it. A stage comes when the pure heart does not become visible and it is the dirt only that reflects from our personality. How can dirt reflect rays of shines? We should take care of our Golden Heart so that the Heart remains resplendent.
