WASTING FOOD-WISE?

ANNAMAYAKOSAM:- The Gross Body is made of food.  A child grows gradually and utmost care is taken by the Mother to feed the child in a nourished manner.  By the result, the mental and physical growth, strength depends largely on the food intake.  To live, food is inevitable to all the living beings-you will all agree with me? Is all the human beings be provided food everyday? At least once a day? There are poor people, who do not get a square-meal/day.  Who care for those poor and needy?  The mentality of the mass is 'I earn, I spend', 'why should I care for some unknown?', ' I eat, I waste, and who are you to interfere in my affairs?' {There are some exceptional  people who live for feeding the poor and bow them}

There are well educated people who are experts in management, MBAs, giving their advises in time management, marketing management, crisis management, financial management, .... But about  WASTE MANAGEMENT, Food-waste in particular? In olden days, it was considered sacred to feed a dog particularly in the nights, and the excess food (two or three mouthful) was allocated to the street dogs.  There were some beggars who wander for alms, come particularly in the nights at about 8 or 8.30 p.m. and the "LEFTOVERS" were dumbed in the vessel he brings. 

Additionally, there were cows in almost every house and fed with a portion of excess food not the destroyed ones and hence they had nothing to through away in the streets.

[But people has started choosing Chinese and Japanese chime and other auspicious things and has started forgetting our own traditions and austerities.]

Now, the scenario is completely different.  No body has patience to feed either to the street dogs, or to the beggars.  And we do not see beggars in the nights.  The street dogs too has become choosy and they do not take what ever we provide! By the result, the left over food is being dumbed in polythene bags and thrown into and around the dust bins, a DON'T CARE attitude indeed.  You can see this kind of scenes particularly in Apartments. We are unable to cross the Dustbin area because of the heavy odor!  Is it not 'injustice" caused to the society?  The Mother of Pondichery, Mirra, has said, if you want to become rich, reduce your expenditure.  My say here is, "food should not be wasted at any cost" -should be our moto and cook and eat to your satisfaction and see that the excess is served to the needy. TEACH YOUR CHILDREN, NOT TO WASTE THE FOOD TOO. TIT-BIT:  Smt. Indira Gandhi was then the Prime Minister.  The family was in the dining hall.  Rahul and Priyanka were small children.  Rahul was about to waste some food in his plate and suddenly Madam Indira Gandhi took it and protected the child from the scoldings of his father Rajiv Gandhi.

THE SOIL OF MAHATHMA

Alas! The Election results has come and the rain stops! The Media, TV Channels, News papers, and everywhere The Modi Wave! Amazing Indeed! A victory with sweeping majority is not so easy a thing in this very big Democratic Nation. This shows that the people are much more informative, alert and participatory compared to earlier period(Elections). An ordinary man manifesting from the role of a tea-seller to the Leader of the Nation is certainly amazing. Many people from India and from through out the World, has congratulated Mr. Modi. His performance in Gujarat has added to the expectations of the Indians.  Leave alone all the political campaign charge-sheets, indecent descriptions, "तू, तू,  मैं, मैं " attitudes. Become magnanimous to accept, appreciate, encourage, suggest, and anything and everything in a constructive manner solely for the welfare of the Nation as a whole-a true Democracy हैं  न ? The Mahathma Gandhi, did not demand any  "Ministry", "the Father of the Nation" Title, his photo in the Nation's currency,........ But the soil of his birth place, very patiently awaited this supremacy to happen and it has happened today! Let the Nation become a Developed one Let the Nation become the World Leader, Let the Nation become all powerful, not in Arms and Ammunition but in Harmony, A Himalayan Harmony, Let the Nation become all powerful in Technology "सतयमेव जायते "

SIGNIFICANCE OF PRANAYAMA

Pranayama is the fourth limb o Ashtanga Yoga.  'Prana' is the life force, ayama means control.  

Breathe and Mind are very much related to each other.  When one is controlled the other is automatically controlled. 

This fact is discovered by our ancient adepts and revealed for the benefit of mankind-

When one does Pranayama regularly, certain psychic powers are also developed in him.

Prana is not mere breathe.  It is the power behind breathe.  Prana is the subtle energy pervading in the whole Universe.

Light, electricity and magnetic force are all manifestations of this Prana.

Features of Pranayama:-

1)  Slowing of breath rate, uniformity, continuity and rhythm.

2) Equalization of breathe between 2 nostrils.

3) Breathe-awareness--3D awareness

The Richest thing in this World that even the Poorest man is gifted with is this "PRANA".  

The Pity is that the value of  PRANA IS  least known!

RESOLUTION COMES TRUE IN YOGA NIDHRA

  Those who are familiar with Yoga must have heard about Yoga Nidhra too.  It is a relaxation technique practiced at the fag end of the session , that is , after practicing yoga Asanas and Pranayama. 

It is a powerful tool to make the Body and Mind relax.  Matter of 10 minutes is sufficient to get the body and mind relaxed.  It can very well be   extended up to 30 minutes . 

Practice of yoga Nidhra should be followed after practicing Yoga Asanas:

Yoga Asana without Yoga Nidhra is considered invalid.

During yoga Nidhra, both in the beginning and at the end, you will be asked to take a Resolution which is expected to come true in one’s Life. 

You will be asked to keep all your sense organs except the hearing faculty, inactive.  The sub-conscious mind become  alert.

In this relaxed state of mind and body, the Breathing too becomes very rhythmical, serene and deep.  In this situation, if you take a resolution which you want to achieve in your Life, it will definitely come true. 

Ardent desires are so powerful that it will come true one day or another.

We have seen, in our Yoga session, many people expressing their happiness for their resolution coming true/materialising.  Even, Impossible become possible!!

You have to take the same resolution every day until you get it materialized.  It is similar to that of your belief in God.  It may take a month too to get achieved and it depends on the type of your resolution.

You must not analyse or intellectualise these things during Yoga Nidhra, for it will disturb your mental relaxation and it will delay your success.

Become an achiever and practice regularly yoga asanas and yoga Nidhra too!!

LAUGHTER AND LIFE

DEFINITION of LAUGHTER:  

It is an expression of the inner feeling/the way one understand a thing/happiness/joy, over an incidence just happened or happened much earlier and may happen in the future.  It is an involuntary physical reaction accompanied by unarticulated sounds.  It is a response to a stimuli either external or internal.  While laughing one can find the contraction of the diaphragm and other respiratory organs.    

AN ELABORATE DISCUSSION:  

A new born child, though cries first, it smiles too. It must  be an outcome of internal comfort.  

Children's smile or laughter are uncorrupted, spontaneous, NATURAL and most powerful in healing the wounds of the elderly.  

As soon as they enter the school, they learn many varieties of smile and Laughter.  They start bullying and make fun of others and enjoy the same.  Some times teachers  too join this fun!  

Take the case of grown-ups.  There are enormous number of meanings in their every laughter. Both constructive as well as destructive laughter is prevailing in the society.  There is a 'saying'  in the Tamil Language, that denotes that 'a lady's laughter is highly dangerous'.  Very sad indeed.  Laughter out of ARROGANCE is commonly seen irrespective of their sex.  We can see the villains laugh in Cinema/tv Serials.  

In the great epic Mahabharatha, Draupathi, wife of Pandavas laughs  at Duriyodhana,when he was walking along the Palace constructed by Pandavas and it added fuel to the already burning fire in the heart of Duriyodhana. 

In Ramayana, you can see Rama, having a smiling face and faced everything with the same expression.  When he was said that Coronation was to be taken place the next day he showed a smile: when Keikeyi asked him to go to forest for 14 years, the very same expression of smile did not change, a balanced view described as स्थितप्रग्न्य in Sanskrit.  

Matha Amrithanandamayi once in her speech, explained the significance of smile and how much contagious a smile is.   

Sense of Humor is found even in Great Saints.  

SMILE AND LAUGHER:

Smile is a soundless, a mild expression which can be possible without even showing our teeth.  Laughter, on the other hand is accompanied by unarticulated sounds, sound varies from person to person, it even varies from gents and ladies.  Both, smile and laughter can be poisonous too.  A cunning smile is equally poisonous like an arrogant laughter.  

CONCLUSION: 

Nature has blessed the Human with the ability of smile and laughter.  It is for us to decide whether to use it constructively or destructively.  

'Laugh in the times of difficulty'-says the great poet of Tamil - Thiruvalluvar.

Laughter clubs are there to laugh, but a healthy laughter alone can give a healing effect deep inside.  

Laughter lubricates the inner organs, the heart and the lungs in particular. You can add laughter too to the various preventive measures you take for Heart Diseases.  

A smile is a shawl to show-off in the society, to hide your sorrow, to act as if you are happy.

THERE ARE CERTAIN PEOPLE IN THE SOCIETY WHO CANNOT BE MADE LAUGH OR EVEN SMILE WITH THE HELP OF 'LAUGHING GAS'-NITROUS OXIDE!!!

A BIRD  BLOGS

People are blogging now-a-days. I feel jealousy of them, They have their mouth, they Have their Writing Talent, Books to publish, Media to talk, To Express their feelings, to Act. They can share their feelings With their own people, Their own friends and relatives, write letters, Capture Photos, Have Records of what they Write, What they shoot in a Camera....... Where do we go? We fly extensively, We too do have many  things To talk about, to write about, But we are not provided a PC Nor are we given "WiFi" connection. Of-course, Google provide Transliteration and Translation They may be having software to Understand our Language, to translate, To publish in various Languages In which a human can Understand. Our Blogs will be far more interesting Than that of a human, The Beautiful  Scenery a human can ever see, The Satellite can ever record,  For we are able to reach out the remotest Area of this Universe, We don't have Tower Problem!! We have knowledge about The facts about the Nature, How much Human have Destroyed the same, The forth-coming calamities, Oh! God the savior, Forgive these fools for their innocence and ignorance. Secrets of the Species, Anger of the Animals, Beauty Queens from our own Family, How Human are Harmful to us, Bountiful number of Broods We have no platform to place our Charge-sheet. Are the Human Dumb? They disregard our Summon ever, Ask them to stop and give an Ear to What we plead  and give a second thought Before they bound to destroy the Nature At least here after!!!!
