Self-Development

                                                                    People have to face tough situations now and then. such thing has to be handled in life with courage to come out successful. The self-development always helps to stand successfully against it. Some qualities are to be acquired to see that things become smooth and less painful.

                                      The superiority complex is sometimes helpful but the inferiority complex brings depression and nervousness. Therefore one must take a stand confidently as if one is right. In the process, if some people underestimate you then also one will have the upper hand in the matter.

                                      One should have the patience to listen to others which is the key to success. Besides that one has to be calm which is a sign of confidence. It is observed that egoistic people make a lot of noise and they do not care to listen to others.

                                    Sometimes a day is bad but that does not mean that whole life is going to be bad. Motivation and Consistency are more important in life to achieve success. It is like one may read 100 books but only one can change the life. One meets 100 people in life but only one can change the life.

                                   Worries create anxiety but anxiety will not change the future but truth of life is that action will only change the future. One must have a disciplined life to maintain continuity in life. It s not true that discipline brings perfection but it does bring self-control and mental balance.

                                     In short, all this self-development is necessary to face the cruel and difficult world.

It is more or less a very deep treasure of thinking contributed by intellectuals than Religion. when the whole world was struggling in search of truth the Indian Vedas spread knowledge on every subject related to the human race. 

                                       Sometimes even Hindus also lack the true knowledge of its philosophy which offers tremendous knowledge on all critical subjects concerning life.  This happened because all Vedas and Upanishads were forgotten as they were written in the ancient language of Sanskrit. The Sanskrit language also disappeared from India in day-to-day use.  

                                     What are Vedas and what it contains therein? vedas are written and Sung in the Sanskrit language. It is divided into two sections. One is which is being Heard and the other one is which is being remembered. They are divided into main sections. i.e. Rugved, Yajurved,  Samved and Atharved.

Yajurved throws light on Karma, Spiritualism, the Soul, Substances, the Universe, and God. It also describes Yagna's performance. While Samved contains knowledge regarding Classical Music, Art, and Dance. It is presented in Musical form. Atharved presents Ayurved and Herbal Medical Science thereon. It  also deals with mysterious Stories and the Science of Astrology

                                      Besides that, there are 108 Upanishads which are the shortest versions of Vedas. However, 10 Upanishads are more important among them. Upanishads also deal with questions regarding the existence of God. How is the Universe? It also throws light on Moksha, Yoga, and deep Medication.

                                         Besides that, some medicines could contain chemicals that can lead to very dangerous diseases like Cancer. However, there are some NGOs whose scientists are doing research and warning the people if there is anything wrong with any specific medicine. 

                                        ' Valisure' is one such American organization that is doing such work in the best interest of the public. It detected cancer-causing chemicals in widely used medications like Hand Sanitizers, Sunscreen Perspirantbody Sprays, Dry Shampoos, and Acne Treatments. Sometimes such research leads to several suits and even recall of the concerned product. It is also reported that the majority of Americans do believe that the products they buy are safe, tasted, and harmless.

However for very serious cases now a new 'Digital Bridge' technique is being developed between the Brain and Legs, which can help a victim to ascend even a staircase with the help of a walker. It reduces the problem to a great extent for patients. However, it may take one decade to develop the said technique fully for reaching to large number of such accident victims.

Bertrand  Russel's Philosophy

                                                     Bernard Russel was a thinker and philosopher. He said many things wisely which can guide us through life.

                                                    He believed in humbleness which one can have a great quality in life. Therefore he said' Humbleness is part of Truth'. It can lead to success in life. He also believed that the truth has to be accepted by using wisdom. It is a simple solution to avoid conflict and friction

                                                 One has to present such ideas that it make people think about it. That means it should be appealing on a large scale. One can't achieve anything by force but flexibility and adjustment are very important things in life. 

                                                  The goal can be achieved if it's worth it. one can't depend upon public opinion about it.  It is a historical fact that if one tries to destroy other's opinions then such action will damage own self. Hence one has to be tolerant.

                                                   Do not hesitate to think of something new and do not be afraid to do something unique. It is the key to success. If someone wants to live in heaven let him live. There is no use being jealous of him and to waste energy. The real heaven is only in the reality of life.

                                                  Bernard Russell concludes that the true way is short and right but wrong ways always remain before one without fail.

India's Border- To Day and Past. 

                                                        ' Akhand Bharat' word is frequently used in India in the context of the historical and ancient border of India in the past. It is also reported that in the Indian parliament, one map shows the past map of 'Akhand Bharat' or United India.  It has created lots of heartburn and controversy worldwide, including in Pakistan. During their regime in India, the British Imperial power separated many Regions once part of India over time.

                                                       Once India was spread over 83 lakh square kilometers which is now  33 lakh square kilometers.  It was from Iran to Burma and Indonesia from the Himalayas to Kanyakumari( i.e. To the Indian Ocean.) This is because the following Countries were separated from India by the British colonial regime.

Name of the Country-----               Year 

1) Afghanistan  ----------                1876

2)Bhutan          -----------                1906

3) Sri Lanka -----------                    1935

4)Burma          -----------                 1939

5)Tibet            ------------                 1907

6) Pakistan    -------------                 1947

7) Nepal        -------------                  1904

                                             Besides that India had political and religious influences in Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and Malaysia. It was a time when India was a very rich and prosperous country and it was very powerful around. 

                                             Therefore every Indian lives in the Dream of 'Akhand Bharat 'which is very logical and rational.

Health Care - The Latest 

                                               Certain parameters are generally fixed for certain diseases but revised with time. This may be related to better health care or further research on those diseases. 

                                                Blood pressure is the biggest problematic disease in human health. It can lead to Paralysis, Heart problems, and Blood-related illnesses in the human body. It is reported that in the year 1970, the Blood Pressure parameters were 180 /110  but now it is 120/80. This is to be noted for people who are suffering from the disease of high or low blood pressure.

                                                In the case of diabetes the sugar level after the meal was 180, and fasting it was 130 i.e. That was the parameter for it since 1990. However now it is 150 after meals and 120 fasting.  All these show that with time, research, and experience health care is changing very fast.

                                              The fast and comparative world has also created lots of stress and strain which is creating mental problems. It is reported that 90% of health problems are Mental while only 8% are related to other parts of the body. It is observed that knowledge of disease leads to more tension and stress on the body which adversely affects the victim. Hence it is not advisable to talk much about diseases to patients but it is wise to talk about improvement in the health of the victim.

                                            This is also noted that with improved health care, most diseases can be treated and get rid of it. In most diseases, the victim person requires sympathy and positive talk for a speedy recovery that too with modern Health Care.

Truth Of  Life

                                                                  We must always search for the truth to face the difficult situation in life.  It is observed that one comes across many people in life.  It is not a permanent association with them. Therefore it is necessary to digest the truth that all people who came into one life will not remain with us forever. 

                                     Some people get hurt in life, but remembering that bad event will be a waste of time and energy. It is better to proceed further by forgetting and forgiving which can lead to one's growth.

                                    One has to be positive in life because most difficult struggles in life can become a blessing. That means the experience thereon may help to solve future problems smoothly.

                                   Failure creates frustration and depression in life but it is also said that failure is the key to success. In short, one must never give up.

                                  One step ahead can take ahead in one's difficult goal. Even difficult times can pass eventually. However one has to pass some time and that too with a lot of patience.

                                 It will bring failure and sadness if one tries to please everyone. People also search the happiness in the world but they fail to know that happiness is in their hands and within.

                                 Life is very precious and it is to live purposefully. It is also the fact that life is not easy to live. But one has to live it positively being born as a human being. That is also one of the truths of life.

                                 Given above better to know the bare truth of life to swim smoothly in the ocean of life.

Karma

                                                                          What one does positively or negatively in life is karma. The law of action and reaction is said to be equal and opposite. Therefore, if one has good and positive karma, one receives good results; if one has negative karma, the results are bad and negative. Besides that Lord, Krishna says in Gita that we have the right to do karma but have no control over its result. That does not mean that one stops doing karma as it is a life process. 

                                                                   However, it is very necessary to understand the rules of karma.  Karma also affects the lives of all. 

                                                              It is said that whatever thought and energy one puts out to the world, i.e. One gets back results good or bad. Besides that one should see that action is taken before things happen. i.e. Instead of waiting for everything to happen magically for him. 

                                                             It is also necessary to be humbled to understand that all situations and results are on account of their past actions.  One has to control own self and not others and has to focus on personal growth.  The change has to start with oneself which can lead to self-growth through positive karma.

                                                          Whatever happens in one life is because of one own karma. Besides that, it is to be owned by one who brought it through one own action. That means it is one own choice.  In life past, present, and future everything is connected.  The past action leads to the present situation and what one does today will determine what will be tomorrow. Hence karma of past and present determines everything one gets in life.

                                                                The action of giving is an action that one believes from the heart. It reflects one inherent belief in living a positive life. It is one of the positive karmas that one can implement in life. The bad karma will go on repeating if one does not take lessons from mistakes. One must learn lessons from history and change own life. It will bring positivity and improvement in doing good work.

                                                             Patience, Hard Work, and Self-assurance are the parts of Positive Karma that bring success and satisfaction to one life. Whatever way one makes positive contributions in the form of karma always brings positivity and happiness in life.

   In short, every walk of life requires one to do karma which brings happiness and satisfaction in life.

This also prevents individuals or organizations from inducing the local population to believe or not believe in any religion.  About a Million Muslims were also kept or locked in camps for re-educating during the years 2018 and 2019 respectively. 

                                       The religious festival of Ramadan on which final day Muslims observe fasting during the daytime has also become risky because of being caught. Even the Iftar party has also disappeared. In short, China is trying to show that Xinjiang is now in the mainstream of China.

                                      Besides that one Ancient Adobe Brick Mosque was also converted into a Musiuim by giving one or other reasons. some of the mosques are also being dismantled. The Chinese flag is being raised in the Mosque garden along with playing the Chinese National Anthem. In short, China is in the process of dismantling Muslim Culture and replacing Chinese-mandated culture in Xinjiang. 

                                       The religious freedom of the people in Xinjiang is being curbed with strict rules and people are under surveillance in their own place.  Unfortunately,  Muslim Countries are also not raising any protests against the ill-treatment given to their Muslim brothers in  China.  It is also surprising that 'where Muslims have full freedom to observe their Religion' Muslim Countries are raising protests against them on one or another ground.

Climate Change

                                                                Cyclones, Flooding, Heavy Rain, Severe Colds, and the Eruption of Volcanos are now common calamities all over the world. The world is going through several disasters which are costing Trillions of Dollars Every year. 

                                 All these calamities are one or another way connected with Climate Change. It is believed that the Earth is warming up which causes the melting of Glaciers and Mountain Ice including from the North and South Poles. All these bring floods in Rivers and high levels of the Ocean which bring lots of misery to people living around them

                               Besides that unplanned increases in industrialization have increased the Carbon in the atmosphere which is polluting the environment and creating unhealthy pollution. The use of oil and coal in Industrial Plants is throwing Carbon which is polluting the air and leading to an unhygienic Climate. The Excess Carbon also breaks the layer of Ozone in the sky and the Rays of the Sun become more severe which makes the Earth unusually warm.  

                           In 1991 Mount Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines and blasted 20 million tons of SO2 into the atmosphere which created a blockage in the atmosphere and cooled the atmosphere by 0.5 degrees. However, there are many such volcanoes all over the world that erupt from time to time and affect the climate of the Earth.

                        Some of the countries that are in Desert Areas and that lack drinking water and enough rain are trying to get it by spraying chemicals in the clouds. But sometimes it gets misfired.  The recent flood and heavy rains in the United Arab Region may be one of the examples of such incidents. Hence artificial methods to deal with climate can also create an adverse effect for humanity.

                      In short, it is better not to touch the natural climate and try to deal with the factors that have adversely affected the climate. We can reduce the consumption of Oil, Coal, and harmful chemicals in our daily lives so that the atmosphere does not get polluted. We can go for clean energy as far as possible.  

                    Natural disasters like the eruption of volcanoes can't be eliminated and their effect on climate. However, we can considerably reduce the adverse effects of climate change with collective efforts to clean the pollution.
