Matargashti

Exam time is always followed with stress in a students life. But this was not the case this time. Actually we were planning to watch Tamasha movie since its release, but unfortunately couldn't make it. So today we plan for watching this movie, though I was not sure whether we will go or not.
I was sleeping till 12 O'clock noon, than my friend wake me up and told we have to go for 12:55 pm show. I than wake up, I performed daily morning task in noon. Than we went for the movie though we were having outing time from 4-6 pm. But we broke the rule (as rules are ment to be broken), I covered my face with stole and we came out from our jail cum hostel. I have covered my face but my friend didn't, as she didn't like to compromise with her looks. So, I was bit afraid of seeing by hostel warden or any other staff. But nothing like this happen. We reach at 1 pm at inox. We got the ticket @75/ticket, as it was Wednesday. We rush towards escilator because we thought we are late. In excitement, my friend slipped near escelator stairs, But immediately she came up and we reached inside theater.
Movie was about to start so we took a long breath and thanks god for being on time. Movie was awesome. It truely represent how each human being is running in a race without knowing his/her real interest.
We enjoyed the movie and feel that we are hungry. Next we planned to have food in a restaurant called "Goverdhan thal" near Udaipol railway station. We took a personal auto @50 after negotiation. When we reached to our destination, we pay money. One intersting thing happens. My friend pays a thanks  to auto driver with this blessing "may your child stood first in the class". It was random and bring smile on face of autowala. As we came near to the gate of restaurant, one restaurant guy open the gate for us, we feel special. We went inside the restaurant and have meal.
Than we came back to jail cum hostel and after taking rest prepared ourselves to study.
And one more beautiful day of my life passed on.

2-12

2 Dec 1992, the day when I was born. Today I completed 23 years of my life. When I was born I had a family of 4 members. Now when I am 23 years old, I came to realize that my family size have grown up from earlier.
According to definition of family its a group of people connected with the the bond of birth, marriage and adoption. When I look at this bookish definition, I found it incomplete. As per my experience, family not only encompasses the above mentioned persons but also persons with whom you are connected by heart, whom we generally defined as friends.
I think they are the most important and valuable part of once family. I don't know why friends has been excluded from the definition of family.
In my life, I think I have lived most valuable or I can say golden part of my life with friends (Juniors and seniors are too included in this list).. I think I would have learned most of the things from them, I would have committed most of my mistake with them, I would have made several blunders with them, and I would have improved my personlity the most with them.. No doubt parents play a very important role in once life (I am not denying) but the role friends play no one other can.
I realized this thing on this birthday, I don't know whether I am too late to realize it.. But it happened with me. It is a bond which is without selfishness.. You celebrates others happiness even if you are passing through a bad phase of your life, You feel upset when something wrong happens with your friend, You feel hurt if someone hurt your friend, You fight with others on part of her/his. Her favourite ice cream slowly becomes yours favourite. Her choice also now a part of your choices. Her/his favourite vegetable now becoming you're favourite. Your happiness, emotion, mood and behavior get affected by her/his life. You tries to copy her/his good habits. 
You consider her/his success or failure as yours. You are more concerned about booking her tatkal ticket rather than your own class. You are more concerned about making an e transaction for her/him as deadline is approaching. You are more happy on her/his birthday. You knows all her/his strengths and weaknesses and still u love and care her/him without applying any terms and conditions. You laugh, when they. You cry with them.  In short they are now integrated part of your life without loosing your own indentity.

I don't know whether this feeling is common or not, but I have this feeling very strongly. And every time I enjoy it. I don't know why our surrounding inculcates the habit of competition with others since childhood. Due to this child wastes her/his whole life in competing with others, cannot able to develop the true bond of friendship. I thing rather than competing with any other person we have to compete with ourself. We have to challenge our own limits. Than this bond of friendship will flourish and nobody will feel her/himself alone (As most of the people who feel alone had families). Life will be more exciting and beautiful..

So cheers for the bond of friendship....

A way towards PEACE

Most people live whether physically, intellectually or morally- in a very restricted circle of their potential being. We all have reservoir of life to drew upon of which we do not dream.
                         - William James

In the book entitled "The Monk who sold his Ferrari" by Robin Sharma, the great sages of Shivana told a feble to Julian. Julian was a famous law practitioner, who got heart attack in the middle of court room due to the hyper- competitive legal professional world. Then he took retirement from his legal world and he went to the Sages of Sivana in order to find out peace. The great Yogi Raman told a feble to Julian Mental.

In that feble, he told about a garden, which was a symbol for the human mind.
The sages of Shivana told certain benefitial things like which I would like to share:

If you care about your mind, if you nurture it and if you cultivate it like a fertile, rich garden, it will blossom far beyond your expectations. But if you let the weed take root,lasting peace of mind and deep inner harmony will always elude you.
Look at the toxic waste that most people put into the fertile garden of their minds every single days: the worries and anxieties, the fretting about the past, the brooding over the future and those self-created fears that wreak havoc within your inner world. In the native language of the Sages of Sivana, the written character for worry is strikingly similar to the character symbolizing a funeral pyre. Worry drains the mind of much of its power and, sooner or later, it injures the soul.

To live the life to the fullest, you must stand guard at the gate of your garden and let only the very best information enter. You can not afford the luxury of a negative thought- not even one. We all come from the same universal source. However, the ones who do more than just exist, the one who fan the flames of their human potential and truely savor the magical dance of life do different things than those whose life are ordinary.

The sages taught Julian that on an average day the average person runs about sixty thousand thoughts through her mind. What really amazing was, that ninty five percent of those thoughts were the same as the once you thought a day before.

This is the tyranny of impoverished thinking. Those people who think the same thought every day, most of them negative, have fallen into bad mental habits. Rather than focusing on all the good in their lives and thinking of ways to make things even better,they are captives of their past. Those who run their mind in  this fashion are allowing worry to rob them of their life force. They are blocking the enormous potential of their minds to work magic and deliver into their lives all that they want emotionally, physically and even spiritually. These people never realize that mind management is the essence of life management.

These things are truely relevant in present day life, which is full of worries and anxieties. So friend.s, it is up to you what kind of life you wants.??

Navratra and Dandiya

Navratri is a festival of Ma Durga and it is celebrated entutiastically in India. In India, women are worshipped in many forms like Durga, Ambe, Gaura, Laxmi, Saraswati and many more. Navrata is dedicated to nine form of Ma Durga known as Navadurga viz. Shailputri, Brahamcharini, Chandraghanta, Katyayani, Kushmanda, Skandmata, Kaalratri, Mahagauri and Sidhidatri. This festivals brings a lots of positivity and creates a kind of serene environment. You can hear bhajan of goddess Durga in the morning and evening time. Similar kind of bhajans are sung in our hostel too. In every corridor you can enjoy the music dedicated to Mata Rani... Jor say bolo, Jai mata di... People used to keep fast for nine days and I am one among them..

Dandiya is of prime importance during Navratra. In this festive season you will find people collectively performing Dandiya. Dandiya is a traditional folk dance from Gujarat. This dance is performed with the help of two stick and performed by both male and female. This Navratra I got this golden opportunity to perform dandiya which was organized by personnel from univerty staff quarter. They welcomed us, as we were hostlers and rearly got such kind of outings. I performed Dandiya for the first time and enjoyed it a lot. I was astonished by the perfomance of kids (below 10 years), these kids were dancing in a manner which I was unable. Though I tried hard to learn it.. Initially, I did couple of wrong steps which later on I tried to improve. Sometime stick hitting on    fingers and causing little pain as I was novice in that..  We performed 5 step Dandiya, which was not too difficult.. So after dancing for one and half hour, finally I learned some of its basics. I realized this form of dance requires lots of energy and call for a good stamina. I feel very light, positive and relexed. For the short period, I was completely immersed in performing dance and forgot all problems.. There was a continuous smile on my face.. I wish that smile on my face and positivity in the heart will be continue......Jai Mata Di.. :)

I WILL FLY

While I was reading a book by Dr. Kalam, I came across with some very effective line which I would like to share. These lines are written by Persian Sufi poet which was quoted by Dr. Kalam

 

I WILL FLY

 

I am born with potential

i am born with goodness and trust

i am born with ideas and dreams

i am born with greatness

i am born with confidence

I am born with wings

So I am not meant for crawling

I have wings, I will fly

I will fly and fly..

- By Jalaluddin Rumi

क्या राष्ट्रभाषा का प्रयोग देश के विकास के लिए अपरिहार्य हैं ?

सम्पूर्ण भारतवर्ष  में १४ सितम्बर का दिन हिंदी दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है। इस दिवस के आयोज़न में अनेक कार्यक्रम आयोजित किये जाते हैं , इसी तरह के एक कार्यक्र्म का आयोजन महाराणा प्रताप कृषि एवं प्रौद्योगिकी विश्वविद्यालय में भी किया गया और सौभाग्य से मुझे इस कार्यक्रम में अपने विचारों को प्रस्तुत करने का सुअवसर प्राप्त हुआ।  
हिंदी दिवस के उपलक्ष्य में आयोजित वाद विवाद प्रतियोगिता "विषय - राष्ट्रभाषा का प्रयोग  देश के विकास के लिए अपरिहार्य हैं " पर मैंने विषय के विपक्ष में अपने विचार कुछ इस तरह प्रस्तुत किये -

"देश की सीमाओं का आधार हैं भाषा 

मानवता को समुदाय में बाँटती हैं  भाषा 

सोच को संकुचित कर देती है भाषा 

केवल अभिव्यक्ति का माध्यम है भाषा 

इसीलिए देश के विकास का आधार नही हो सकती भाषा "

इससे पहले कि मैं विषय के विपक्ष में अपने विचार प्रस्तुत करू मैं  आपसे कुछ प्रश्न पूछना चाहूँगी।
सोचिये अगर राष्ट्रभाषा का प्रयोग देश के विकास के लिए अपरिहार्य है तो क्यों हमें अपनी उच्च शिक्षा अन्य किसी भाषा मैं लेनी पढ़ रही है ?
क्यों आज सभी माता-पिता अपने बच्चों को अंग्रेजी विद्यालय में पढ़ाने  का स्वपन् देखते हैं ?
क्यों हमारे वैज्ञानिक अपने शोध कार्यो को अंग्रेजी भाषा में प्रकाशित कर रहे हैं ?
क्यों हम मोबाईल , कम्प्यूटर, स्टेशन , इंटरनेट जैसे दैनिक प्रयोग में आने वाले शब्दों का राष्ट्र भाषा में अर्थ तक नही जानते ?
क्यों हमारी सुबह गुड मॉर्निंग पर शुरू होती है और गुड नाईट पर खत्म होती हैं ?
क्यों हम अपनी माँ को मॉम और पिता को डैड कहने में अधिक गर्व महसूस करते हैं ?
 क्यूंकि हम भाषा का प्रयोग अपनी सुगमता के अनुसार करते है और यही वक्त की माँग है।  भाषा के प्रयोग को हम किसी भी व्यक्ति पर थोप नही सकते , इसीलिए ट्रेन , रेलगाड़ी और लौह पथ गामिनी शब्दों में से शायद  ही  कोई व्यक्ति लौह पथ गामिनी शब्द का प्रयोग करता है।  तो आप हे बताइये इसके प्रयोग से देश के विकास पर कोई प्रभाव पर कोई फर्क पड़ता है क्या ? नहीं इससे देश के विकास पर कोई फर्क नहीं पढ़ता। 


वैष्वीकरण के इस युग  राष्ट्र भाषा द्वारा देश का विकास मुझे दिवा स्वपन स्वरूप प्रतीत होता है।  आज हमारे प्रधानमंत्री महोदय स्वच्छ भारत , स्वस्थ भारत , कुपोषण मुक्त भारत , शिक्षित भारत , डिजिटल भारत द्वारा देश के विकसित होने का स्वपन देखते है।  क्या यह विकास राष्ट्रभाषा के प्रयोग से पूर्ण होगा? नहीं, बिल्कुल नहीं। अपितु  यह विकास का स्वपन उन्नत तकनीकी , नये विचारों , कठिन प्रयासों एवं  दृढ़  निश्चय से संभव होगा।   महोदय मैं राष्ट्र भाषा के प्रयोग के विरूद्ध नही हूँ  और न ही मैं अन्य भाषाओं की पैरवी करना चाह  रही हूँ  , मैं बस इतना बताना चाहती हु कि देश के विकास के लिए सामाजिक , आर्थिक , बौद्धिक , तकनीकी और नैतिक विकास की आवश्यकता है  और यह विकास राष्ट्रभाषा तो क्या किसी भी भाषा का मोहताज़ नही है।  

 प्राचीन वैदिक इतिहास की उपलब्धियों को गिनाकर देश के विकास की कोरी कल्पना कर रहे मेरे विद्वान विपक्षी वक्ता ये क्यों भूल रहे है कि देश का विकास इतिहास को याद करने से नही  होता है  अपितु वर्तमान मैं रहकर भविष्य की रणनीति बनाने से होगा।  आज का युग सूचना क्रांति का युग है।  ज्ञान सर्वत्र विद्यमान है।  आज इंटरनेट पर ज्ञान का  समुद्र विद्यमान है।  अगर हमें  इस ज्ञान रुपी समुद से मोती निकालने  है तो हमें सभी भाषाओं  के  प्रयोग  के  लिए  उदारवादी  होना पड़ेगा, तभी हम नए विचारों का सृजन कर पायेंगे  और देश का विकास कर पायेंगे। 

राष्ट्र भाषा के प्रयोग को देश के विकास के लिए अपरिहार्य मानने  वाले मेरे विद्वान  मित्रों  को मैं स्मरण  दिलाना चाहूंगी  कि  देश का प्रत्येक नागरिक अपने  कार्यों से  देश के विकास में योगदान देता है  ना कि राष्ट्रभाषा के प्रयोग से।  
वैज्ञानिक अपने शोध से ,
डॉक्टर अपनी सेवाओं से,
खिलाड़ी अपने खेल से ,
अभिनेता अपने अभिनय से,
व्यापारी अपने व्यापार  से ,
किसान  फसल उत्पादन से,
साहित्यकार अपने साहित्य से,
विद्यार्थी अपनी विद्या से ,
और मजदूर अपने मजदूरी से ,
देश के  विकास में  योगदान देते हैं ना कि राष्ट्रभाषा के प्रयोग द्वारा।  


देश का विकास सरकार की नीतियों , विभिन्न पदों पर आसीन व्यक्तियों  और  देश की युवा शक्ति की काबिलियत एवं क्षमता पर निर्भर करता है  ना कि राष्ट्रभाषा या अन्य किसी भाषा पर पर।  ज्ञान विज्ञान शोध  विकास  तरक्क़ी  निर्माण  कौशल की कोई भाषा नहीं होती  पर ये सभी देश के विकास मैं योगदान देते हैं।  जब हम भाषा के आधार पर विकास की परिकल्पना करते है तो हम स्वयं को एक सीमा में बांध लेते हैं और भावनाओं के अधीन होकर सोचते हैं।  इससे हम अपनी क्षमताओं को पूर्ण रूप से उपयोग नहीं कर पाते  इसीलिए भाषा को देश के विकास के पैमानों के दायरे में रखना हमारी बहुत बड़ी भूल होंगी।  


राष्ट्रभाषा  द्वारा विकास  की पैरवी  करने वाले मेरे विद्वान  मित्र शायद इस बात से अनभिज्ञ हैं कि आज़ादी , सिर्फ़ , दोस्त , नामुमकिन , इंटरनेट जैसे शब्द जिनके द्वारा वो  राष्ट्रभाषा की पैरवी कर रहे हैं , अन्य भाषाओं से लिए गए हैं।  अब आप ही बताइये जब  आप  अपने  तथ्यों  को राष्ट्रभाषा के प्रयोग द्वारा प्रस्तुत नहीं कर  पा रहे हैं तो किस आधार पर राष्ट्रभाषा के प्रयोग को देश के विकास के लिए अपरिहार्य होने का दावा कर सकते है ? महोदय  राष्ट्रभाषा  निश्चय ही राष्ट्र  की संस्कृति को संजोकर रखने में अपना योगदान दे सकती हैं  ; निःसंदेह हमें अपनी  राष्ट्रभाषा  का सम्मान करना चाहिए , परन्तु इसे देश के विकास से जोड़ना कदापि उचित नहीं हैं क्यूँकि  भाषा के प्रोयोग को किसी भी व्यक्ति पर थोपा नही जा सकता हैं।

DELIVER ME FROM FEAR

I read this inspiring poem written by Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.These lines always inspire me. So I am sharing it with you all..

Poem was titled- 

DELIVER ME FROM FEAR

 I am not alone,

God is always with me.

If God is for me,

Who can be against?

I sought the Lord, he heard me,

Deliver me from all fears.

Divine cure and divine light penetrated into me,

And cured my pain in body and soul.

Divinity beauty enters into me,

and blossoms into happiness,

When God is for me,

Who can be against?

 

-By Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
