I TRULY FELT SO GOOD FOR A MOMENT!

Years back, I was on my usual round of walk to the nearby Market Area to buy a few groceries and return.. I regularly prefer this walk of 1 km about 10 mts to the Market Area as the same is quite relaxing and invigorating in the mid morning hrs especially in the warm sunlight of winters..

As I finished my work and was returning home by walk in middle of my walk, a woman of late 30s sitting on the side of the road asked me something in her mother tongue showing a distant Cloth Poster tied to two poles advertising for admissions to a new Kindergarten School being opened in the neighborhood. For a while, I couldn't understand what the lady was asking and I was dumbstruck..

• The woman repeatedly asked her question showing at the Advertisement and I ultimately had no way of getting away from there and for a while, was trying to understand what her question related to the Advertisement was..

• Finally, I just answered her speaking the content of Advertisement with a mixture of English and one or two words of her own language known to me and thus conveyed the gist of the Advertisement. When I used those words, the woman nodded her head, thanked me in her own words with a smile and bid me ‘Bye’..

As I started walking further, the thoughts continued in me on the woman’s interest connected to the Poster as the School was never for the people like her or me for our own children and thus could never conclude on her requirement..

• Just then, a bus fully colored Yellow over took me with the people in the bus all dressed up in Yellow singing in chorus a Devotional Song. It was pleasant to listen to their Song and when I took a small look that side, it suddenly struck me..

• Yes! The bus was painted Yellow, the people in the bus dressed up in Yellow drapes and the Lady waiting for the bus and who enquired me about the Poster too was in her Yellow Costume. That means, she is one of the Devotees of the Devotional Group.. But what was her interest in the Poster?

Another flash came up in no time and that really clarified my doubt. Yes.. The cloth of the Poster too was Yellow in color!

• Means, she wanted to know whether the same colored Poster by chance was carrying any of her own Group's related activities and if that was the case, she was worried whether she was missing participating in any one of them. And squarely there was a language barrier for her as she could not make out anything written there in English..

But being educated too, I was not great at that moment as the color insensitivity had taken over me at that point of time!

• I felt instantly so good to know that the Lady Devotee who was next to me sometime back had such a deep Faith, totally believed in the Almighty in her own way, never wanted to do anything less there and sincerely was filling up all gaps in the Devotional Program which was 'On' for that entire month and would go thus during the Winter periods of every year!

MY TOP HIGHLIGHT OF 2023.. THAT ONE SONG!

"Of late, I am being attacked by others endlessly!"

"That's because, you are responding to others beyond

One day,

• You were doing your work. That man called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

One more day,

• You were doing your work. Another called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

2 weeks ago,

• You were doing your work. One more called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

Remember..

Priority is ever for your work in front. Paying attention to others is after!"

"Yeah..

Last week,

• You were doing your work. That man called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

Day before yesterday,

• You were doing your work. Another called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

Yesterday,

• You were doing your work. One more called. You stopped doing your work. Paid attention there!

One rule for you and one for the other..

What a hypocrisy!"

"No hypocrisy.. 100% Truth as I'm not complaining,

'Of late, I am being attacked by others endlessly!'"

Thus goes the Moral Story with an Embedded Message..

'Securing with all required, let me

Organize doing all my works towards completion and

Nodding 'YES' to the other man's requests as much, equally let me

Get onto those tasks without murmurs and complaints!' 

And in the Year 2023, I went on singing

THAT ONE SONG

Many times equally myself involving as much!

THE ROLE OF SMEs AS TRUE CONTRIBUTORS TO THE ECONOMY OF A NATION!

Seen in broad perspective, the economy of a country depends on the varied small contributions of many skilled and unskilled workers of the country put together with their returns ever forming the core of that economy.

The various Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) spread across the country employ these skilled and unskilled labour with limited wages and take their output.

Thus, SMEs of any country contribute towards major portion of economy of the country and their role in the economic activity can never be given lesser importance.

As some of the contributions of these SMEs are not streamlined in respect of receiving steady orders from end users as well as improving the quality of their output, some extra measures have to be taken by ruling government in promoting these SMEs and helping in their business.

Along with the measures taken by the government, the Large Scale Enterprises too should step in and try making use of the returns of SME workers in a streamlined way as these Large Scale Enterprises are fully equipped to meet major production needs of the country as well as have a firm footing in the International Markets.

The various strengths of the Large Scale Enterprises include.. 

• Sophisticated Design,
• Well established Standards,
• Standard Manufacturing Techniques,
• Latest Testing Techniques and Procedures,
• Standardized Storage Facilities for raw materials and finished goods,
• Quality Assurance at various stages,
• Control of the Product Demand in the world market,
• Standardized Pricing of the finished goods,
• Well established communication facilities with skilled manpower of other countries,
• Good rapport with seasoned customers of the world market 

And

• Easy back up for holdups and failures..

Which the SMEs with their limited finances and turnovers do not and cannot aspire to function at that level in respect of of manufacture and supply except few.

At the back of such capabilities, each Large Scale Enterprise of the country should develop the selected SMEs as their Ancillary Industries as well as Contractors exclusively for supply of their inward goods.

This involves, basically visiting these SMEs and primarily evaluating..

• The facilities existing,
• The skilled manpower available along with their strengths,
• The standard of machines employed,
• Sources of raw material supply,
• Storing facilities of raw materials,
• Storing facilities of finished products,
• Quality Assurance at all levels,
• Training facilities for manpower in related technical areas 

And

• Dependability of the end product..

And advising them on the improvements required which they sure will incorporate if guided further on that.

Once developed a particular SME as suitable for their supply, the Large Scale Enterprise should issue an approved Certificate to the particular SME for supply of their output products for limited period simultaneously placing a firm order on the SME.

Such Certificates need to be renewed in regular intervals after a thorough inspection in respect of standards of the SMEs listed along with suggestions on improvements where required keeping in mind the changing markets and requirements of the end users.

Thus done, these Large Scale Enterprises sure have dependable supply of goods and services as inward supplies for their uninterrupted production and they can breath in air and concentrate on their major works.

Equally done that way by every Large Scale Enterprise of the country, many SMEs will be streamlined in supply of their goods and services and seen as whole, major manpower of the country are effectively employed towards growth of economy of the country!

In this scenario, the SMEs too should chip in their efforts and stick to certain guidelines in general in respect of their operations like.. 

• They should make a note of the Large Scale  Enterprises in the country, their end products and their requirements..
• They should hook on to those Large Scale Enterprises which if tapped can incorporate their production as part of their inward goods supply..
• They should invite those Enterprises to visit their places and take their advice in streamlining their production supplies..
• They should equally take guidelines of the experts of those Large Scale Enterprises and try to incorporate them to strengthen their enterprises..

And

• They should ever remember that the ultimate aim is to be in the chain of dynamic world market and that can never happen unless few of these Large Scale Enterprises promote them based on their capabilities and thus ever keep up standards in all spheres of their activities to the best!

NO DOUBT THE UNKNOWN TOTALLY BUT WELCOMED 100% WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT!

I was suddenly surrounded by a strange scenario and people were seen living through a constant fear doubting every other man in the vicinity. The news heard used to be twisted in no time and presented in a way that looked entirely different with none remaining openminded easily. The life was practically going on thus through hours of happenings and monitoring totally forgetting the concept of the next day.

A midst those turmoils of life, the differences between our group and another group of our region soon became quite distinct. In the prevailing confusion, the other group just took over the ruling and started their own ruthless suppression of our group members. When we were thus quickly branded as the potential enemies, our united strength soon broke down and existed only at close levels in fighting for survival.

As life was moving thus, myself and three friends of mine came to know that a few of our group members somehow escaped from the place getting away thru' the exit gate of the border. We quickly sent our families thru' that gate as a group and expected them to reply where they had reached.  But by that time, the enemy group became alert and barred all the in coming and out going calls outside the region simultaneously keeping stringent vigil at the exit gate.

Hearing that news, we felt totally depressed for a while but there was no go, we should also somehow escape else life was becoming tougher day by day. Soon we discussed together and hatched out a meticulous plan..

That evening after it became dark, we four dressed up approximately like army officers of our ruler with some fake dresses lying with us, sat in our vehicle one in the front, two at the back and myself in driver's seat and straight drove to the point of exit gate.

From a distance, we noticed the stringent checking of each vehicle passing through the gate and our hearts sank in no time. No doubt, the guards at the gate were fully vigilant. Every one’s heart was beating heavily and it appeared almost impossible to escape. And we very much knew what would happen to us if identified at the gate..

As we neared the gate, we noticed three vehicles in front of us, ours being the fourth one and the sentry at the gate kept the barrier lowered. Two guards in uniform with guns came forward to check the first vehicle..

Twenty minutes passed. The men of the first vehicle were proving their best that they never belonged to the enemy group but going out on their own. At length the barrier was lifted and the first vehicle was let go..

It was not the case for the second vehicle. The men were quickly found to be of enemy group in disguise and were squarely caught red handed. They were made to get down the vehicle and were taken to a side into the darkness. We from our jeep could distinctly hear the low voices of the people caught and the shouting from the guards and sure that was the limit for four of us..

Suddenly, my friend in rear seat shouted aloud in a shaking voice,

“Can't take it any more. Too much!”

One of the checking guards in front heard that and looked at our vehicle. My other friend next to him said in a further louder tone,

“We missed the right time. There's no point in waiting like this. Let's go back now. Everything appears to be out of control!”

Instantly, I lost my cool. In an aggressive mode, I quickly reversed my vehicle and zoomed past overtaking the vehicle in front and brought the vehicle near to the gate shouting at the top of my voice,

“Sheer senseless waiting.. We are squarely held up!”

As the vehicle suddenly came near to the gate, the same guard looked at us from back and started moving towards our vehicle..

My friend next to me saw that in the rear view mirror and instantly sensed that it was our end. In a total desperate mode he screamed in a shrill voice,

"What the hell is going on here?”

The guard heard that, instantly waved his hand to the gate sentry to open the gate for the vehicle saluting us in uniform!

We were in a total collapsed state by that time but myself having seen the 'GREEN SIGNAL', instantly got enormous energy, at one stroke pulled away at zooming speed acknowledging the salute of the guard through a firm hand raise myself breathing heavily and sweating all over, my heart pounding at an audible level with the rest of us no way better and in no time.. 

Escaped from the jaws of death and stepped into the land of eternal freedom myself in spite of not knowing where I'm heading and where my people are totally had gone into a type of mad joyous state of Self Exploration ready to 

say yes to my blind date with the world

my friends too being no exception there!

Suddenly the alarm bell went off wildly at 0600 hrs set. I instantly woke up, shook myself off, looked around. The sooner I came to senses, I remembered one of the great inspiring stories of the world war read that night from the book I borrowed from library and the in process dozed off without my own knowledge!

WHY I LOVE THE WORLD?

As I look back into my travel history, leaving apart the journeys I made within the country, I extensively traveled across the globe for the past 25 years and visited various countries like Israel, Singapore, USA, UK, Germany, Canada and Mexico and further extensively toured the areas around in each country. In US itself I covered the entire East Coast as well as the West Coast by making more than half a dozen trips to the places.

That wide travel round the globe alone made it possible for me to visit many famous places of historical and tourist importance which till then I could only read in books and hear from people who were to those places. Some of the places of my visit in the past were..

Merlion Park of Singapore,
Jerusalem, Bethlehem, dead sea and Sea of Galilee of Israel,
Museum of Science and Museum of Fine arts of Boston,
Light house, Casco Bay of Maine,
Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge and Statue of Liberty of NY,
National Museum History, White House and Washington Monument of Washington DC,
Los Angeles County of Museum of Art and Griffith Park of LA,
Golden Gate Bridge of SFO,
Dysneyland, Orlando,
Beaches of Miami, Santa Barbara and Santa Monica,
Lake Tahoe and Big Bear Lake of Neveda/CA,
Las Vegas,
Bigsur and the Seventeen Mile Drive of California,
Grand Canyan National Park, Aspen Rocky Mountain National Park and Death Valley National Park of US,
Bannf National Park and Jasper National Park of Canada,
Volcanic Crater and Haleakala National Park of Hawaii,
A Cruise trip to Mexico,
Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge of London,
Cologne Cathedral of Germany, 
Kunstpalast Museum of Dusseldorf, etc..

In the beginning of these series of my travel abroad, my travel inspiration was not much and I was not enthusiastic as I was forced to stay away from the very much loved place of my own for long periods along with living in sub zero temp environments..

It was a sort of homesickness having traveled for long distance and finding nothing common at the new place compared to my usual day to day experiences of life like..

• The food was different, the taste was different, the items in the market were different, the language spoken as well as the accent was different, people's habits were different, the heat, cold, dust, rain and the weather in general were different.. 

Something seriously missing..

THE TOO MUCH LOVED FAMILIARITY!

During that initial period, on a day I happened to visit a nearby book store just to spend some time.. There again I noticed that the books too were different except a few countable in number, the subjects were different and were never to my taste..

Moving thus mechanically as I went to a corner searching a lot for my choice, suddenly my attention was drawn towards something hanging on the wall there..

I don't know.. It was a sudden impulse of emotion in me on seeing that as instantly I could see something exactly 1:1 of what I had repeatedly seen, gone through, studied, argued on and was a master of that for so many years in my life..

THE UNIQUE PIECE OF WALL PAPER.. THE WORLD MAP AS IS!

As if it was a miracle with a great recovery feeling within me, I instantly started seeing a few other common things too in the new place which till that moment, I failed to notice with

An open minded attitude of seeing greatness and beauty everywhere totally replacing the attitude of myself craving to remain in my own cocoon of my small world..

• 'Yes! Here, the people too are basically one and the same with the same type of physiques, the same feelings of pleasure and pain and the same expressions and requirements with them..

• The nature around is the same with the clouds, waters, air, hills and vegetation with so many common entities that can never be off from the scene..

• The weather might have been seen as different but the words heat, cold, rain, lightening, thunders and wind forever convey the same known meaning only!

THAT VERY MUCH LOVED FAMILIARITY

Is intact in the new place too if seen in the right perspective.. Then where is the place for the crippling home sickness which bothered me so much till then?'

No need to say..

That night I had lengthy heart felt conversations and telephonic calls with some of my friends and my near and dear ones at distance and as I was returning to bed for a restful sleep which was a dream till the other day, I noticed myself unknowingly whistling aloud with

The piece of World Map purchased and brought home by me with all Reverence and Respect and positioned in my bedroom hanging to the wall was silently conveying the Eternal Message of the

• 'EVER EXISTING ONENESS'

Amidst

• 'COUNTLESS DIVIDING TENDENCIES'

In me if not seen in the right perspective!

TRULY A FANTASTICO JOB!

A man was given the task of bringing up two orphan children of distinct cultures together himself taking up the Role of the Care Taker for them.

• There, instead of doing that job honestly, he systematically worked towards his own advantage caring less for their unification and thus managed all along till they became adults. Finally, there was a day when the two young men started fighting between themselves for certain petty reasons.
• The man simply proclaimed, “My job is truly over and I did my best possible here. I am totally off now and the rest is purely your fate!”
• But the next moment they both caught him saying, “Where will you go? You all these days have actually widened our differences, raised our tempers for your advantage and now coolly wants to back off. Nothing doing. Be with us and face the music along with us!”

Another man too was given the similar Responsibility and he worked for such two children to bring them up together by sticking to a certain Code of Principles.

• Soon the young ones had grown up as adults, for sometime it was a smooth journey and all thought the best was done. But suddenly one day, a conflict flared up between the two grown ups and the man insisted that both stick to their Code of Ethics.
• But that never worked, they straight away asked him to keep quite, the conflict soon turned ugly and ultimately a certain damage took place without a say.

A third man too was given such a job as his task but he straightaway started working by sticking to 'Truth' all the time.

• For a max time, there were no flare ups as the two grown up people too understood the Basic Truth that their differences were a fact and they had to inevitably live with them by sacrificing something from each one's side. But still in spite of having such a good understanding, there was a flare up between them on a day.
• That lead to a scuffle, for some time both of them kept off from each other but again they found that they would be disrespecting their own Well-wisher cum care Taker by doing thus. And equally in no time, as they were convinced of the 'Right', they quickly patched up their conflict each feeling sorry for his unwanted behavior and each accepting his own weakness yielding off from the adamant stand he had earlier and thus they were together in their lives once again. Thus the man who guided them all along had truly done a Fantastico Job in his life and was totally at Peace all the time! 

There was a Message..

"The Fantastico part of Pure Love is. Love alone begets Love and that Pure Love forever is just sincerely Caring for the ultimate Welfare of an Individual; nothing less of that at any time!"

THE 'TWO BEST' NAVIGATIONAL APPROACHES OF OUR LIFE!

An Ardent Devotee once approached a Great Saint in an Ashram, bowed to Him and said,

“Reverend Sir! Day and night, I constantly see many uncertainties around me ready to strike at any moment as I live thru' my life..

In spite of myself Navigating thru' my life with all care and attention, a particular uncertainty suddenly surfaces in front and asks a question,

• ‘Have you taken care of me in the present situation?’ 

And here, I do not have a 100% answer to that as my care in that situation appears to be limited and with that limited entity as I proceed, the next uncertainty is seen in the queue with the same question..

Thus I find no way to be at Peace in my life at any point of time.. Unable to do anything here, when I start listing out these uncertainties, to my surprise I find the list really endless!

I am thus caught in my life and constantly live with the despair that springs up out of this turmoil.. Is there a solution for me?"

The Saint said,

"Dear! You can really do nothing in respect of this phenomenon of the Universe except continue doing your activities with all sincerity to the best known to you and not waste your energies with the futile attempts of dominating the Universe out of your inherent fears..

Here you may utilize your Navigation Skills in the direction of either

• Continuously exploring the vast unknown around you through that known to you thereby doing a yeoman Service to the world at large 

or

• Surrendering to the Almighty with a great devotion merging yourself with the infinite unknown within with an offer of a sincere Prayer which goes thus.. 

'You alone can lead me amidst this Ocean of turmoil and none else in the world.. I humbly keep up my Navigation Sails and steer my ship of life in the Path of Dharma as known to me at this moment.. I sincerely Pray to you to Show me the Light, Guide me and Take me out of this Ocean safely and thus make me ever Peaceful in my life.. I hereby surrender to You in Total!’

By living thru' one of these disciplines alone, you will truly find a solution to your present confusion thus paving way for the Ultimate Peace in you!"

THE 'TRUE IMPACT' ON THE FUTURE PERSONALITY!

The little boy was too demanding..

“I want a big car and I want 10 small cars. I want all now!”

The mom said,

“Why do you want so many cars? It’s too costly to buy like that!”

“No. I want!”

The mom said "Nothing doing!" and the child started crying.

“OK! This time it's allowed. One big car and only 2 small cars. We don't have so much money. Tomorrow we'll go to your Toy Shop!"

she consoled the boy and he slept for the day.

As promised, the mom took the boy to the shop the next day and they were soon lead to the place where different car model toys were kept on the display..

The moment the boy saw different colors and different sized cars, he was on to them, picked up his favorite models, the mom paid the bill, got them packed and they returned home.

The child was too happy. He got what he wanted! Soon the pack was opened and the child had gone beyond his excitement.

“Come.. Let’s play!”

The mom sat with him and in no time, the play was ON and went into full swing joined with his other toys.

The little boy was moving one of the small cars too fast. He shouted, 

“The car is jumping across the River. See!”

Saying thus, he moved the car too fast back and forth, it suddenly went off his hand and fell at a distance..

“No…. No…. No....”

Thus saying aloud, he picked up the metal car and threw it out of an instant anger within having failed in his 'Mission Impossible!'

As the mom was picking up other toys from ground a little away, the metal car straight away flew and hit her on her forehead. The impact of the child's throw was quite enough to cut her forehead skin a bit deep and leave her profusely bleeding..

She instantly got stunned with what happened, the lady of 30 who was all the time proud of her slim figure and beauty had a greater impact on her psyche as she got injured at the same place where the beauty really mattered.

She suddenly became wild, crying aloud pushed the child away from her with a certain force and was helpless for a while. No doubt, the injury needed immediate attention as the cut was deep. A medium size cut on one side of the forehead was clearly seen after the wound was washed. It would definitely be seen as black mark for months and months and in case if it stays like that for a life time?

She was instantly depressed with those thoughts and became sad but equally could do nothing in the situation.

But as the First Aid was given, she was told that the scar would appear for a while but ultimately would merge with skin in course of time. And for some time she had to put up with the mark and the time of healing might be a few months, she was told.

The child got stunned. He started crying. His Mom’s crying had its own impact on his Psyche too.. He could not bear that. He became totally silent with his Mother’s mood off.

Soon, the mom recovered. Whatever be it.The child knew nothing. It was not his fault. But it was the right time that he be taught the 'Right' without an exception. It was a little astonishing for other members of the family, as she in no time smiled at her boy, took him nearer and started teaching him the ‘Good Play’ while dealing with his toys in future.

“Dear! Here afterwards you'll not throw things as you like. People do no like it. From now on wards, I am going to see a nice child playing with toys and keeping them in order. Is that Okay?"

she asked the boy.

No doubt, that was the biggest boon for the child right at that moment and instantly he was overjoyed with his Mom’s mood back. He firmly nodded his head in affirmation and turned towards her extending his tiny hands. The mom instantly became emotional, took him closer, showered her endless kisses on the boy and hugged him tight!

The boy never knew the agony of his mother at that instant, forgot all that the next moment and further may not be remembering the same as he grows up but the incident and the mom's timely counselling indirectly brought an instant positive impact on his subconscious mind to see that he would never behave in a wild way at any point of time in his coming up adult life there by paving way for the growth of one of the

THE TWO 'COMPANIONS' OF MY LIFE!

The 2 Companions in our life that keep up one's weight under control are..

The No1.. is Living with that particular discipline which

• Always does good to us and never means bad even in dream.. 
• Gets us newer and newer friends as we move thus in our life who forever appear to be cheerful and rarely frowning.. 
• Puts back our spirits and extend support all the day through its own grace in spite of ourselves being dull and moody that day morning.. 
• Never gets turned off but welcomes us in whatever way we greet it at our level and capacity.. 
• Invariably makes us smile at all people forever without making us distinguish between the rich and poor, the big and small, the strong and the weak.. 
• Never lets us down with a disheartened feeling seeing the widening or narrowing, the twisting or straight or the limited or vast environment in front.. and 
• Forever makes us keep contact with Mother Nature! 

And that very Companion is none other than the daily walk in our life!

The No 2 Companion is the discipline of daily consuming the right quantities of quality food..

A particular Belief in a corner of the world goes.. 

'It seems every individual comes onto the Earth to consume a fixed number of grains of their own staple cereal and when the last grain is consumed, one has to wind up own activities on the Earth!'

And equally the joke related to this goes.. 

'So there's wisdom in saying that when one eats less number of grains in a day more number of days are going to be there for one on the Earth!'

Thus, the consumption of nutritious and balanced food constantly stressing upon the 5 points related to it Viz; 

• Wholeness is ever welcome; refinement is secondary..
• Coarseness (Fibre) is ever welcome; smoothness is secondary..
• Limited is ever welcome;large amount is secondary..
• Freshness is ever welcome stored is secondary..
• Variety is ever welcome routine is secondary..

ever keeps our bodies lighter and minds active..

And, these too disciplines together definitely maintain the optimum weight in one's life!

At home, I constantly advise on these, provide conditions for these to take place in the day of our life like allotting a fixed time in the morning or evening hrs for a min 30 minute walk and buying the necessary and essential right foods in right quantities for home so that the required nutrients are constantly consumed thru' a habit..

The above 2 activities put together will surely go a long way ensuring good weight management for my wife and thus I can help out her in keeping up the same and maintain in turn good health for her!

“I am joining the Saffolalife #ProtectHerHeart initiative and pledging my support to better heart health in Association with BlogAdda.”

LET THIS BE NO MORE A 'MISSED CALL' IN MY LIFE!

Yes!  Today the Earth is very much Calling.... And there is not an iota of doubt in this....  Again, we are only the persons here that have to rise to the occasion and respond.... Both at the Individual level and at the Community level and the Conservation of Nature around should be the constant thought in the mind of every one of us.... Else the precious Natural Resources with us are not going to last long.... And our Planet Earth no more would be our dearly loved Home....

To date back, man was very much natural in the beginning and was almost leading a normal life in the society with limited man-made modifications around.... In time, the attractions by the side slowly overpowered him and man started actively interacting with some of those items.... Here the instant correctness required was never asserted with the control part of it coolly forgotten.... Thus, he quickly developed a great interest in using them as they could instantly bring a miracle of change in his presentation and ease in the outside world and endlessly started seeking the additional Comfort which was invariably part and parcel of that.... 

Out of such Fascination, man started using those items regularly daily in his life adding more and more to the Cart continuously.... In course of time, life had become more of Comparison with the next man by the side than required making the cohesive part of human existence sidetracking.... 

As the Fascination was high, a quick solution was sought instead of going to the root cause of all problems.... Patience had no time and that way again quick solutions were readily available whose number was not limited…. And the effect was equally there with a color but that soon faded away exposing the damage it had done in turn.... And soon, all such instant methods were found to be nothing but the stop gap arrangements alone and no firm solution was found in sight…. And exactly speaking, this is the life today we have with us where in the Natural Expression of ours has dramatically undergone a change and is further changing continuously....

Thus, expectation of ‘Quick Results’ in our day to day life with the artificial life woven around has become the basic cause of the problems we face presently in respect of the natural degradation around us.... Our instant actions and knee-jerk reactions for getting over the trivial situations in the fastest way are doing all that damage presently talked of in this context…. If continued thus beyond a limit, Nature is firmly going to put a brake there without a say and those symptoms have already started showing up....

I should always remember that Nature forever expects me be doing a positive effort, keeping off for a while with certain cool and taking returns in limited quantities over a longer period.... Further, while getting out of bad situations that may crop up all of a sudden in my personal life, I should allow the situation to simmer for a while without deterioration by addressing the problem gently and should give minimum time required to recover from the tough situation.... Further too through a firm determination, I should be bold enough to allow the threat to be by the side to some extent, keep myself always prepared to face the attack through a discipline of what is required in the situation and thus be living my life in tune with Nature’s Original Discipline comprising of the key words…. ‘Allow’, ‘Sustain’ and ‘Refrain!'

In the process of living such a life, naturally the 'downs’ continue for a longer time and my discipline simultaneously should reduce the impact of such 'downs' through timely actions by making use of ancient proven methods and modern convenience providers in equal parts....

Thus our 'Sacred Chant' of today's life invariably goes....

After asserting CORRECTNESS in every aspect of life, let me sincerely start exercising due CONTROL in my life wherever feasible by optimizing the COMFORT involved therein at the back of certain sacrifices, of course all along never leaving the CONVENIENCE aspects of my basic living and thus ultimately try retaining human COHESIVENESS around me 'as is' to the extent possible!

No doubt I cannot unwind all this and once again go back to the original life too as that life once upon a time had its own problems of rawness and a certain brutality.... So let me accept the highly evolved life in front of me as is at the back of certain distinct merits of its own but let me move along from now on-wards with a much required discipline of the day comprising of the following simple activities from my side.... And these activities, perfectly feasible for me in my day to day life if followed with due attention and extra small effort multiplied over days and with the like minded people around too doing the same would soon bring in significant contribution to the task of saving our Mother Earth from the imminent catastrophe which is very much on the anvil this moment....

• Let the Public Transport be used for certain routine movements wherein hither to I was just looking at my vehicle keys for all such movements....
• Entertain Car Pooling for to and fro Office travel on days easily feasible to do that.... 
• Take a walk or cycle instead of taking a ride for moving short distances around....

• Minimize the use of gadgets at home for a day and go for the old tested manual methods of doing the same works....
• Eat and drink the various consumables at room temperature on certain days to experience a newness in place of the routine....

• Take Home remedies for routine minor ailments and thus adapt naturally to the minor ups and downs in health....
• Adapt in parallel to the usual medication, a different life style for addressing the chronic health issues....
• Know the chemicals regularly used in life and say 'NO' to a few once in a way where feasible....
• Engage actively with various body movements required in a situation for the cause of expressing in the natural way....

• Try and water regularly the plants in the garden and be with Nature for sometime daily....
• Have no shortcut walks across the grass fields; always take the existing walk paths even if they appear to be a little longer....
• Enjoy the beauty of flowers of your garden bloom and fade naturally on the plant itself without touching them....

• Cater a few extra minutes for locating the yesterday's carry bag before going out for daily groceries....

• Avoid the artificial comfort around for a while and make a habit of exposing to the natural environment existing by the side.... 
• Let hard copies be done with where in e-papers do the trick without a problem.... And
• Let me be ever ready to add more to this list which activities would not greatly disturb my routine!

The 16 point Agenda of my discipline here together is very much conveying the right Response for the Earth Calling....Yes....'LET ME TAKE THE CALL!'

TOGETHERNESS....

It is very much rightly said that 'A friend in need is a friend indeed' and this Great Saying was in front of me on a particular day of my life and beyond that.....

It was the time of 90s and I was in the Senior Managerial Level at my Office....As is known well in a Business Environment, the Managers forever oscillate and hop around.... They may talk sweet but they need to pretend that many times or they may talk harsh which they never actually mean at their hearts.... It's a continuous game played for a long time at the Work Place as well as at times, spilled into the outside life too as they cannot be instantly different in a day.... And soon it appears to people with them at Work Spot that they are actually the unfriendly and the opponent members of their life....

Naturally as I was passing thru' a stage of becoming mentally matured in my life in those days, I too carried for a while the impression that those were the people with me who would never become friends and ever their job was to criticize and question me or talk behind... unfortunately, it takes years to fully mature there and start seeing the Truth and I was still much away from that....In such times, on a fateful day I suddenly met with a road accident on my Two Wheeler.... Not a life threatening one but not a light one too... There were certain injuries as the hit was a bit harsh.... I was advised two weeks rest and further told to get into my routine of activities slowly as the body starts permitting.... And there ware no elaborate treatments; in fact no treatment at all.... A good rest, slow movements and recover on own without losing the very self confidence were the recommendations....

No doubt, it was a helpless state for a few days at home as all of my hitherto busy activities came to a standstill at one stroke with no immediate recovery signs in sight.... Thus a temporary life started immediately for me with a certain depressed mental state.....

But the Saying goes.... 'Every dark cloud has a silver lining!' and that was really right as I noticed a miracle happen there for the first time of my life....

During the first week of my recovery at Home, it was a strange experience of fulfillment in my life and never I felt such a warmth at any time.... The people working with me at all levels, were the regular Visitors to my home for a few hrs which they definitely squeezed in their working hrs, took extra pains and used find out if I am OK or I needed anything which they could arrange.... And here, I found one common thing...

There were no differences seen at all.... All that was instantly forgotten.... The Hierarchical Levels were not felt.... The Big and Small have truly become one.... And the very people of earlier times with whom I had bitter arguments and counter arguments, the same people from whom I silently vouched for distance, the same people who were quickly seen by me being on the other side, the people who were doubted very much come in our peaceful way of living a little more where the very environment of constant poking appear to extend and spill into family life too were all instantly seen as the warm, close and Welcome Group joined with the rest of other friends and well-wishers... A Single Group of people by my side with a Single Wish in their hearts.... 'He is in difficulty.... It's human to be with him in this time and thus fulfill my sacred duty here!'

No doubt, none would wish for such a pain and trouble in one's life of meeting an accident but that by the Grace of Almighty having gone light and the recovery being just a matter of time, the first week of that recovery for me had strangely become a blessing in disguise as I truly experienced seeing a unique warmth and inherent friendship attitude in all the people of my Working Community including in those from whom I thought I would never get a response in that way....

A Great Learning and a Great Fulfilling Time of my life with full of Optimism out of a togetherness experienced further with a firm Drive in me that my life too is worth living helping out for such causes!
