YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

2009-09-10T15:42:00.000+05:30

Do you know we can even calculate our age even using very simple chocolate maths. This post is dedicated to chocolate lovers. Have you ever thought of this your chocolate love or eating habit can even help other to identify your age. Don't tell me your age, the Hershey Man will know!

YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read .. Don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!

1. Pick the number of times a week you'd like to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator(or use the one listed under 'accessories' on your computer)

5. If you already had your birthday this year add 1759 ...
If you haven't, add 1758.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born

You should have a three digit number

The first digit of this was your original number (i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week)

The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!)

Note: Please write your results as comments.

2009 IS THE ONLY YEAR IT WILL WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS. Chocolate Calculator

How to stop cough in 5 minutes

2009-09-07T15:00:00.000+05:30

This is a must try..... We have all been kept awake by our own or someone else's cough. Try this and pass it on. The tip and not the cough.

"ANYTHING is! better than antibiotics."

Even babies could benefit from this and the parents wouldn't worry about the safety of their child. And of course, it is harmless and free from any type of side-effects. WOW! I was raised, and raised my kids with Vicks. How come I never knew this? I can't wait for my next cough.

Amazing! READ IT ALL. It works 100 percent of the time, although the scientists at the Canada Research council (who discovered it) aren't sure why.

Treatment: To stop night time coughing in a child (or an adult, as! we found out personally), put Vicks Vapor Rub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime and then cover with socks.

Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about five minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. This works 100 percent of the time, and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly. I heard the head of the Canada Research Council describe these findings on the part of their scientists when they were investigating the effectiveness and usage of prescription cough medicines in children, as compared to alter! native therapies like acupressure. I just happened to tune in to a.m. Radio and picked up this guy talking about why cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good due to the chemical makeup of these strong drugs, so I listened.. It was a surprising finding and found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at bedtime, and in addition to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children who then went on to sleep soundly. My wife tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and persistent cough a few weeks ago, and it worked 100 percent! She said it felt like a warm blanket had enveloped her. The coughing stopped in a few minutes, ! and believe me this was a deep (incredibly annoying!) every few seconds, uncontrollable cough and she slept cough-free for hours every night she used it. If you have children or grandchildren, pass it on. If you
end up sick, try it yourself and you will be absolutely amazed.

SMILE

2009-09-03T15:34:00.000+05:30

Ø Always remember to be happy because you never know who's falling in love with your smile

Ø Before you put on a frown, make absolutely sure there are no smiles available.

Ø A smile is an inexpensive way to change your looks.

Ø Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.

Ø Life is like a mirror, we get the best results when we smile at it.

Ø I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.

Ø Wear a smile and have friends; wear a scowl and have wrinkles.

Ø The shortest distance between two people is a smile

Ø If you don't start out the day with a smile, it's not too late to start practicing for tomorrow

Ø Every day you spend without a smile, is a lost day.

Ø Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.

Ø Peace begins with a smile.

Kenny & the Dead Donkey

2009-08-27T15:47:00.000+05:30

A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old
farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.
The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad
news, the donkey died last night."
Kenny replied: "Well then, just give me my money back."
The farmer said: "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."
Kenny said: "OK then, just unload the donkey."
The farmer asked: "What you goanna to do with him?"
Kenny: "I'm going to raffle him off." (Note: To raffle is to sell a thing by
lottery - draw lot -! to a group of people each paying the same amount for a
ticket)
Farmer: "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!"
Kenny: "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."
A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "What happened with
that dead donkey?"
Kenny: "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and made
a profit of $998.00."
Farmer: "Didn't anyone complain?"
Kenny: "Just the guy who won. So I gave him back his two dollars."
Kenny grew up and eventually became the CEO of the American Energy Company :

Time to Change Your Thinking

2009-08-27T15:07:00.000+05:30

It will take just 37 seconds to read this and change your thinking.
Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.
One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.
His bed was next to the room's only window.
The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

The men talked for hours on end.
They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation..

Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.
Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.
As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this picturesque scene.
One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.
Although the other man could not hear the band - he could see it in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.
Days, weeks and months passed.

One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.
She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.
0A
Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside.
He strained to slowly turn to look out the window besides the bed.

It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.
The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.
She said, 'Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.'
Epilogue:
There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.

Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.

If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy.

'Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present.'

The origin of this letter is unknown .

Do not keep this letter.

I pray you will forward it to all your friends to whom you wish God's blessings. This will definitely not bring you riches but will allow you to bring a smile on many faces

Rohypnol

2009-08-11T17:41:00.000+05:30

A woman at a Gas nightclub (Mumbai) on Saturday night was taken by 5 men,Who according to hospital and police reports, gang raped her before Dumping her at Bandstand Mumbai. Unable to remember the events of the evening, tests later confirmed the repeat rapes along with traces of rohypnol in her blood.

Rohypnol , date rape drug is an essentially a small sterilization pill. The drug is now being used by rapists at parties to rape AND sterilize their victims. All they have to do is drop it into the girl's drink. The girl can't remember a thing the next morning, of all that had Taken place the night before.

Rohypnol, which dissolves in drinks just as easily, is such that the victim doesn't conceive from the rape and the rapist needn't worry about having a paternity test identifying him months later. The Drug's affects ARE NOT TEMPORARY - they are PERMANENT. Any female that takes it WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE .

The weasels can get this drug from anyone who is in the vet school or any university. it's that easy, and Rohypnol is about to break out big on campuses everywhere. Believe it or not, there are even sites on the Internet telling people how to use it. Please forward this to everyone you know, especially girls.

Girls, be careful when you're out and don't leave your drink unattended. (added - Buy your own drinks, ensure bottles or cans received are Unopened or sealed; don't even taste someone else's drink) There was already been a report in Singapore,Malaysia,UK and India of girls drink been Spiked by Rohypnol...

Please make the effort to forward this to everyone you know. For guys - Pls inform all your female friends and relatives. "Your life is God's gift to you. What you do for others is your gift to God" I had been forwarded this mail you SHOULD do the same.

WASHINGTON POST COMPETITION ASKED FOR TWO-LINE RHYME WITH THE MOST ROMANTIC FIRST LINE, BUT THE LEAST ROMANTIC SECOND LINE
This is the winner

My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife,
Marrying you screwed up my life.

I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming.

Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not.

I thought that I could love no other --
that is until I met your brother.

Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

I want to feel your sweet embrace;
But don't take that paper bag off your face.

I love your smile, your face, and your eyes --
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

My love, you take my breath away.
What have you stepped in to smell this way?

My feelings for you no words can tell,
Except for maybe 'Go to hell.'

What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts tequila, one part lime

PARENTS ARE PRECIOUS

2009-08-11T17:27:00.000+05:30

Dear Friends...
...PARENTS ARE PRECIOUS!!
This was narrated at a Seminar recently on Human Relations:

Venkatesh Balasubramaniam (who works for IIT) describes how his gesture of booking an air ticket for his father, his maiden flight, brought forth a rush of emotions and made him (Venkatesh) realize that how much we all take for granted when it comes to our parents.

My parents left for our native place on Thursday and we went to the airport to see them off. In fact, my father had never traveled by air before, so I just took this opportunity to make him experience the same. In spite of being asked to book tickets by train, I got them tickets on Jet Airways. The moment I handed over the tickets to him, he was surprised to see that I
had booked them by air. The excitement was very apparent on his face, waiting for the time of travel. Just like a school boy, he was preparing himself on that day and we all went to the airport, right from using the trolley for his luggage, the baggage check-in and asking for a window seat and waiting restlessly for the security check-in to happen. He was thoroughly enjoying himself and I, too, was overcome with joy watching him experience all these things.

As they were about to go in for the security check-in, he walked up to me with tears in his eyes and thanked me. He became very emotional and it was not as if I had done something great but the fact that this meant a great deal to him. When he said thanks, I told him there was no need to thank me. But later, thinking about the entire incident, I looked back at my life. As a child, how many dreams our parents have made come true. Without understanding the financial situation, we ask for cricket bats, dresses, toys, outings, etc. Irrespective of their affordability, they have catered to all our needs. Did we ever think about the sacrifices
they had to make to accommodate many of our wishes? Did we ever say thanks for all that they have done for us? Same way, today when it comes to our children, we always think that we should put them in a good school. Regardless of the amount of donation, we will ensure that we will have t give the child the best, theme parks, toys, etc. But we tend to forget that our parents have sacrificed a lot for our sake to see us happy, so it is our responsibility to ensure that their dreams are realized and what they failed to see when they were young. It is our responsibility to ensure that they experience all those and their life is complete.

Many times, when my parents had asked me some questions, I have actually answered back without patience. When my daughter asks me something, I have been very polite in answering. Now I realize how they would have felt at those moments. Let us realize that old age is a second childhood and just as we take care of our children, the same attention and same care needs to be given to our parents and elders.Quality time and politely answering them with out making them wait is important. Now I realize that I must look at their eyes and answer them pleasantly and pretend to be reading papers and answer in mono syllables. Rather than my dad saying thank you to me, I would want to say sorry for making him wait so long for this small dream. I do realize how much he has sacrificed for my sake and I will do my best to give the best possible attention to all their wishes. Just because they are old does not mean that they will have to give up everything and keep sacrificing for their grandchildren also. They have wishes, too.

Take care of your parents. THEY ARE PRECIOUS. KEEP THIS MESSAGE GOING BY SENDING IT TO YOUR FRIENDS

HOW TO FORWARD E-MAIL APPROPRIATELY

2009-08-04T16:54:00.000+05:30

HOW TO FORWARD E-MAIL APPROPRIATELY
A friend who is a computer expert received the following directly from a system administrator for a corporate system. It is an excellent message that ABSOLUTELY applies to ALL of us who send e-mails. Please read the short letter below, even if you're sure you already follow proper procedures..

Do you really know how to forward e-mails? 50% of us do; 50% DO NOT.

Do you wonder why you get viruses or junk mail? Do you hate it?

Every time you forward an e-mail there is information left over from the people who got the message before you, namely their e-mail addresses & names. As the messages get forwarded along, the list of addresses builds, and builds, and builds, and all it takes is for some poor sap to get a virus, and his or her computer can send that virus to every e-mail address that has come across his computer. Or, someone can take all of those addresses and sell them or send junk mail to them in the hopes that you will go to the site and he will make five cents for each hit. That's right, all of that inconvenience over a nickel!

How do you stop it? Well, there are several easy steps:

(1) When you forward an e-mail, DELETE all of the other addresses that appear in the body of the message (at the top). That's right, DELETE them. Highlight them and delete them, backspace them, cut them, whatever it is you know how to do. It only takes a second You MUST click the "Forward" button first and then you will have full editing capabilities against the body and headers of the message. If you don't click on "Forward" first, you won't be able to edit the message at all.

(2) Whenever you send an e-mail to more than one person, do NOT use the To: or Cc: fields for adding e-mail addresses. Always use the BCC: (blind carbon copy) field for listing the e-mail addresses. This is the way the people you send to will only see their own e-mail address. If you don't see your BCC: option click on where it says To: and your address list will appear. Highlight the address and choose BCC: and that's it, it's that easy. When you send to BCC: your message will automatically say "Undisclosed Recipients" in the "TO:" field of the people who receive it.

(3) Remove any "FW :" in the subject line. You can re-name the subject if you wish or even fix spelling.

(4) ALWAYS hit your Forward button from the actual e-mail you are reading. Ever get those e-mails that you have to open 10 pages to read the one page with the information on it? By Forwarding from the actual page you wish someone to view, you stop them from having to open many e-mails just to see what you sent.

(5) Have you ever gotten an email that is a petition? It states a position and asks you to add your name and address and to forward it to 10 or 15 people or your entire address book. The email can be forwarded on and on and can collect thousands of names and email addresses. A FACT: The completed petition is actually worth a couple of bucks to a professional spammer because of the wealth of valid names and email addresses contained therein. If you want to support the petition, send it as your own personal letter to the intended recipient. Your position may carry more weight as a personal letter than a laundry list of names and email address on a petition. (Actually, if you think about it, who's supposed to send the petition in to whatever cause it supports? And don't believe the ones that say that the email is being traced, it just aint so!)

(6) One of the main ones I hate is the ones that say that something like, "Send this email to 10 people and you'll see something great run across your screen." Or, sometimes they'll just tease you by saying something really cute will happen IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN!!!!! (Trust me, I'm still seeing some of the same ones that I waited on 10 years ago!) I don't let the bad luck ones scare me either, they get trashed. (Could be why I haven't won the lottery??)

(7) Before you forward an Amber Alert, or a Virus Alert, or some of the other ones floating around nowadays, check them out before you forward d them. Most of them are junk mail that's been circling the net for YEARS! Just about everything you receive in an email that is in question can be checked out at Snopes. Just go to http://www.snopes. com/

It’s really easy to find out if it's real or not. If it's not, please don't pass it on.

So please, in the future, let's stop the junk mail and the viruses.

SMS BASED SERVICE FOR CHALLAN STATUS

2009-07-28T12:04:00.000+05:30

Tax Information Network (TIN) hosted by National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) on behalf of Income Tax Department (ITD) gives you a facility to verify whether the banks have correctly uploaded the details of your tax deposit to ITD through SMS.

"SMS based verification " The procedure for availing this facility is as under:

Send an SMS to 575758 with a message containing the word CSI followed by a space and CIN provided by the respective Bank at the time of making the Direct tax payment and the amount.
Challan Identification Number (CIN) consists of BSR Code of Collecting Branch (seven digit), Challan Tender Date (DDMMYYYY) and Challan Serial No (length less than or equal to 5 digit).
The amount is an optional field. If you provide the amount in the SMS you would get the confirmation whether the amount uploaded by bank matches with the amount paid by you.
Each of BSR code, Tender date, the challan serial number and amount should be separated by commas

For e.g., if the tax payer input “CSI 0510001,11032009,5,5000” where in “0510001” is the BSR code of the collecting branch, “11032009” is the Challan tender date, “5” is the Challan serial number and “5000” is the amount paid by the taxpayer.

The tax payer will get the information against which TAN/PAN the payment has been accounted with the confirmation whether amount entered is matched or not.

(This is an illustrative CIN, actual CIN should be provided in the SMS).

There will be special charges for these SMS. These charges may vary from one mobile service-provider to another. The charge structure can be obtained from the concerned service-provider.

Online Challan Status Inquiry

You can also get the status of your CIN from www.tin-nsdl.com under the section Challan Status Inquiry.

Guide for "Choosing Right Insurance Cover"

2009-07-28T11:54:00.000+05:30

In the current environment, where uncertainty has become an integral part of every family across the globe, insurance has gained in importance. Whether it is health or life cover, families seem to be more willing to shell out money to protect themselves and to cover risk.
While the domestic insurance industry still does not offer products like cover against loss of employment, the existing basket of products offer enough options in the current scenario.

The first insurance policy, often, begins as a tax-saving instrument as the insurance premium up to a limit of Rs. 1 lakh qualifies as a tax-saving instrument. For a young investor, it is not a bad idea to begin the tax planning exercise with an insurance product. For instance, if an individual is required to make an investment of Rs. 50,000 - 60,000 in tax planning, he can look at allocating at least Rs. 25,000 - 30,000 to an insurance plan. This would allow him to take an insurance cover of Rs. 5-10 lakhs which would be the basic cover and the rest can be in investment related products such as equity-linked saving schemes (ELSS). While the premium ensures life cover for his dependents, the other options will help in building a corpus for his future needs.

For those in the early 20's, a unit-linked insurance plan (ULIP) would be a better option as it allows them to have exposure to equity. More importantly, they have a long tenure at their disposal which is a big positive factor for equity exposure. Since ULIP also allows flexibility such as premium discontinuation and combination of investment schemes, this should be the first choice.

The less aggressive ones can look for endowment or returns guaranteed products if insurance cover is of primary importance. Those with dependent families can stick to pure term plans as this will allow them to have good life cover of around Rs 25 lakhs for a nominal premium. That brings us to the question of how much is the right insurance cover. There can't be a single answer as it depends on a number of factors such as lifestyle, the extent of dependence of the family on the individual and more importantly on the liability.

While at a young age, the liability factor will not be of significance, it assumes importance over a period of time. To address the issue of needed life cover, one can look at 20 times their annual income to begin with. This will ensure enough cash flow for the family in the event of any emergency.

The other insurance product which is easily acceptable is a child plan. In fact, this can be an important component of the overall portfolio for those who don't have enough asset backing at an early stage of life. For instance, young parents can look at child insurance plans as this ensures both protection and the needed corpus for funding the child's education. Though it can be argued that a systematic investment plan (SIP) in an equity fund does the job of wealth creation, a child insurance plan also does the job of protection. As far as the burden of insurance charges is concerned, it becomes less relevant when the child plan has a tenure of more than 10 years. As pointed out earlier, child plans also take care of insurance cover, and ensure the continuance of the investment too, in the event of death of the parent, which is not the case with a SIP.

Hilarious Mail from a frustrated victim of chain mails

2009-07-27T12:34:00.000+05:30

8th point is AWESOME......

I wanted to thank all my friends and family who have forwarded chain mails to me in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 and continuing it in 2009 also.
Because of your kindness:
* I stopped drinking Coca Cola after I found out that it's good for removing toilet stains.
* I stopped going to the movies for fear of sitting on a needle infected with AIDS.
* I smell like a wet dog since I stopped using deodorants because they cause cancer...
* I don't leave my car in the parking lot or any other place and sometimes I even have to walk about 7 blocks for fear that someone will drug me with a perfume sample and try to rob me.
* I also stopped answering the phone for fear that they may ask me to dial a stupid number and then I get a phone bill with calls to Uganda, Pakistan, Singapore and Tokyo.
* I also stopped drinking anything out of a can for fear that I will get sick from the rat faeces and urine.
* When I go to parties, I don't look at any girl, no matter how hot she is, for fear that she will take me to a hotel, drug me, then take my kidneys and leave me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.
* I also donated all my savings to the Amy Bruce account. A sick girl that was about to die in the hospital about 7,000 times.. (Poor girl! she's been 7 since 1993...)
* Still open to help somebody from Bulgaria who wants to use my account to transfer his uncle's property of $ 100 million. So much trustworthy.
* Made some Hundred wishes before forwarding those Ganesh, Tirupathi Balaji pics etc. Now most of those 'Wishes' are already married (to someone else)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If you do not send this e-mail to at least 11,246 people in the next 10 seconds, a dog will bite you today at 6:30pm.
Nothing has happened till now......................but who knows. So please forward....

The American Ramayan

2009-07-23T12:53:00.000+05:30

Jai Shri Ram,

A young second generation Indian in the US was asked by his mother to explain the significance of "Diwali" to his younger brother, this is how he went about it... "So, like this dude had, like, a big cool kingdom and people liked him.But, like, his step-mom, or something, was kind of a bitch, and she forced her husband to, like, send this cool-dude, he was Ram, to some national forest or something... Since he was going, for like, something like more than 10 years or so.. he decided to get his wife and his bro along... you know...so that they could all chill out together. But Dude, the forest was reeeeal scary shit... really man...they had monkeys and devils and shit like that. But this dude, Ram, kicked with darts and bows and arrows... so it was fine.

But then some bad gangsta boys, some jerk called Ravan, picks up his babe (Sita) and lures her away to his hood. And boy, was our man,and also his bro, Laxman..... all the gods were with him... So anyways, you don't mess with gods. So, Ram, and his bro get an army of monkeys.. Dude,don't ask me how they trained the damn monkeys... just go along with me,
ok...
So, Ram, Lax and their monkeys whip this gangsta's ass in his own hood..Anyways, by this time, their time's up in the forest..and anyways...it gets kinda boring,you know... no TV or malls or shit like that. So,they decided to hitch a ride back home... and when the people realize that our dude, his bro and the wife are back home... they thought, well, you know, at least
they deserve something nice... and they didn't have any bars or clubs in those days... so they couldn't take them out for a drink, so they, like,decided to smoke...and this was the start of this festival called Diwali".

Not knowing this may leave a big hole in your pocket

Information you cannot miss out

If you are getting caught quite often by Bangalore's traffic police, then this will be the article you cannot miss out on. From now onwards, the Traffic Police cannot catch a motorist just to examine the driving license or vehicle documents. He can catch you only if you have violated any traffic laws or if you are driving drunk.

Remember that when caught for traffic violation, the fine you pay must be limited to the violation. In other words, the police can't bloat the bill saying that you have no insurance cover or emission certificate, etc. Many motorists do not know this. According to the State's Road Transportation Act, no policeman can slap a penalty on you just because you have no insurance or emission certificate. If you have not purchased insurance cover for your vehicle, then the police officer must issue a notice, not impose penalty. You must be given 15 days' time to purchase insurance cover and one week for obtaining the emission certificate. Days later, meet the sub-inspector at his station with the insurance cover or emission certificate, so that he will annul the charge at once. Police can fine you only if you fail to produce these documents within the stipulated period. If your vehicle is brand new, then you need not bother about obtaining the emission certificate for one full year.

In response to a question as to why policemen fine people instantly without giving them time to obtain insurance cover or emission certificate, Additional Commissioner for Traffic Praveen Sood said, "Yes, it is a mistake. People must force policemen to issue notice or complain to me at least the following day. I have suspended the Indira Nagar sub-inspector for catching people for silly reasons," he said. The best way to teach the police a lesson is filing a written complaint with their higher officials and, a week later, using the Right to Information Act (RTI) to know the action taken against them. Remember, any question or application filed under RTI cannot be ignored and no official is bold enough to ignore the RTI Act. Praveen Sood (Additional Commissioner for Traffic) - 22942276.

Last Chance to Save Indian Economy

2009-07-21T12:15:00.000+05:30

U CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS.
Please spare a couple of minutes here... for the sake of India ... our country. I got this article from one of my friends, but it's true, I can see this in day to day life, Small example,
Before 5 months 1 US $ = IND Rs. 39
After 5 months. Now it is 1 $ = IND Rs. 50
Do you think US Economy is booming? No, but Indian Economy is Going Down.Our Economy is in your hands. INDIAN economy is in a crisis. Our country like many other ASIAN countries is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation. More than 30000 Crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages... etc which are grown, produced and consumed here. A cold drink that costs only 70 / 80 Paisa to produce is sold for NINE rupees, and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy. We have nothing against Multinational companies, but to protect our own interests we request everybody to use INDIAN products only for next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future.
What you can do about it?
1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.
2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause.
Each individual should become a leader for this awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don't need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product. All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

Brief Description of JAINISM

2008-07-31T17:23:00.000+05:30

Jains are followers of Jina. The word Jina literally means "the Victor" or “the Liberator”. One who has freed himself/herself from the bondage of Karma by conquering räga (attachment - deceit and greed) & dvesha (aversion - anger and ego), and expounds the path of liberation is called Jina. The teachings of Jina is called Jainism. Lord Mahavira was the last reformer of Jainism. The ultimate goal of Jainism is to rid of all karmas and attain the salvation (liberation - moksha). We attract the karmas because of attachment and aversion (räg & dvesha). Therefore, the path of liberating our soul from attachment and aversion constitutes the philosophy of Jainism. The fundamental truths of Jainism were preached long before. Jainism is one of the oldest religions of the world.

Per Jain beliefs, the whole universe is a self-regulated. For living beings, his/her karma plays the important role. Karma is finest matter that our soul attracts based on our thoughts, speech and physical actions. Bad karma pollutes the inherent qualities of the soul. The bondage and deliverance of each individual belong to himself or herself. The experience of happiness or sorrow belongs to each individual and the experience is his/her own. According to his/her past karma, his/her present fate is decided, and his/her future will be decided based on his/her present balance of the karma. When a living being eradicates all his/her karmas, he/she attains perfect knowledge, perfect perception, infinite amount of energy and permanent bliss. He/she becomes omniscient and omnipotent. Every living being has a potential of becoming Jina per Jain philosophy.

To day, there are about 6 million Jains in the world. We do not believe that there is a supernatural power who does favor to us if we please him. We, Jains rely a great deal on our own initiatives and efforts, for both - our worldly requirements and our salvation. Jainism as explained by Jinas (also called Tirthankars) can stand scrutiny of reason. We do not have to believe in the things that do not appeal to our commonsense. We accept only those things that can be explained and reasoned. We are master of our own destiny.

There are many ways to explain Jainism. Here is one of them. Jainism is known as the religion of Ahimsa (non-violence), Ahimsa of thoughts, speech and physical acts. In Jainism, our beliefs in Ahimsa supersedes all concepts, ideologies, rules, customs and practices, traditional or modern, eastern or western, political or economical, self-centered or social. Ahimsa (non-violence), Anekantväd (multiplicity of views) and Aparigraha (non-possessiveness) are the cardinal principles of Jainism. Aparigraha plays significant role in stopping the physical form of violence. And the proper application of Anekantväd stops the violence of thoughts and speech. Anekantväd is also called the intelligent expression of the Ahimsa. Non-violence in the center is guarded by truthfulness, non-stealing, celibacy and non-possessiveness.

One time Lord Mahavir was asked what is the religion from a realistic point of view. Lord Mahavir said, “ the realistic religion consists of four parts: 1) equality of all living ones, 2) every living soul has right to put self-effort to improve itself and should not to be stripped off that right, 3) no one should rule over other living beings, and 4) all views should be viewed with equanimity - without like or dislike." If one adopts only one of these four, other three will automatically be adopted.

What is Religion?

2008-07-31T17:22:00.000+05:30

Many people put great emphasis on rites and rituals. Because of this, some people think the religion is the thing of past; it is waste of time; religion is rigid and orthodox; it represents narrow-mindedness. Science has progressed beyond religion. Some people are worshipping. Some are reciting Mantra. Some are moving beads on a Mala (rosary). Some are singing religious songs. Some are visiting places of pilgrimage like Palitana. Some are asking for rewards from god. Some want to improve their fate. Some are praying to go to heaven. Many activities like these are practiced in the name of religion. Is that really the religion? Answer is no, if there is nothing more to it. Answer is Yes, if there is more to it.

What: First, we should try to understand the true meaning of the religion. It is definitely not the business where you wheel & deal with the god. It is not the thing to practice because of the social pressure or to show-off that you are religious. The Sanskrit word for religion is Dharma. The meaning of Dharma is very own nature of the thing. For all living beings, the soul is the real thing. It means that “to see, to know and to realize” - the true nature of the soul is our religion. In other words, the laws of nature in the truest and purest form are the religion.

Laws of nature lead us to the laws of self-initiative and self-efforts. Without self-efforts or self-initiative, one cannot see, know and realize his/her own true qualities. That’s why Jainism relies a great deal on one's own efforts and initiatives, and laws of nature. Self-effort can change our fate. Remember, our present fate is due to our past Karma.

Unlike other living beings, we, human beings, have reasoning mind and capacity to think rationally. We have curiosity. We want to live a peaceful, happy and simple life. Since infinite times, human beings have been seeking answers to the questions such as: who am I? Who am I not? Who is God? Who made this universe? What is my relationship with the universe? What is my real nature? How can I achieve my own nature, my original form? Right answers to these questions form the religion.

Without personal experience, one will not find answers to these questions. Therefore, we have to depend on the great people, whom we call Tirthankars. They have experienced the answers to these questions. That’s why their words form the religion. There are three ways to find answers to these questions: a) experience, b) use of logic and c) our Ägams (Canonical Books).

By one approach, the religion can be divided in four parts: a) theology, b) metaphysics, c) ethics and d) rites & rituals.

a) Theology explains who am I? What is our true nature? Who is God?

b) Metaphysics explains Who am I not? What is the universe? what is non-living? What is the relationship between living and non-living? How can I remove impurities from myself?

c) Ethics explains how do we live our life? What should be our daily conduct? What and how should we practice? How can we purify our conscious mind?

d) Rites & rituals: This involves praying, adoring, paying our respects and worshipping the Tirthankars. The real purpose of the rites and the rituals is to get an inspiration to be like them, free from attachment and aversion. We are not supposed to ask for anything from our Bhagwan.

One time Bhagavan Lord Mahaveer was asked what is the religion from a realistic point of view. Bhagavan Lord Mahaveer said, “ the realistic religion consists of four parts: 1) equality of all living ones, 2) every living soul has right to put self-effort to improve itself and not to be stripped of that right, 3) not to rule over other living ones, and 4) all views should be viewed with equanimity - without like or dislike. If we adopt only one of these, other three will automatically be adopted. Notice that Bhagavan Lord Mahaveer did not say that follow what I’ve said or follow the Jain religion.

Why: Everyone has some concept about the best qualities, a human being should have. Each human being wants to reduce the difference between his/her qualities and the best qualities. For this purpose, individual puts in self-effort. That self-effort to achieve the best qualities is the religion. What are these best qualities?

The best qualities are the perfect perception, perfect knowledge, perfect character and unlimited energy. We are incomplete, we want to be complete. If we want to have best qualities, we have to believe that they are achievable. The process to achieve these best qualities is the religion.

The religion is meant for purification of our consciousness, to realize our own nature.

How: How to practice the religion? If you are looking for a simple answer, here it is: “Whatever you wish for yourself, wish the same for others.” Bhagavan Lord Mahaveer said this. If we practice this simple message in our lives, all problems would be solved.

Proper beliefs, knowledge and conduct are the prime factors for practicing a religion. Rites and rituals can have their place, if the prime factors are the main parts of our life. The beliefs and knowledge are like paint and brush, while the conduct is like a painting. Without painting, we cannot be an artist. Without proper conduct, we cannot be life-artists.

It is important to have right faith (beliefs) and right knowledge. Without right knowledge, it is difficult to practice the true religion. Without knowledge, we will not know what is right and what is wrong. If we do not know what is right and what is wrong, how can we practice the right religion?.

Do not live to know; know to live. Knowledge is not the religion, practice is the religion. Good conduct is the religion. In our life we should look at happiness and unhappiness with equanimity. We should believe in possibility of truths. Even opposing views can be parts of one truth. Accept co-existence with others. Look at the good side of others. The religion is for self-improvement not for improving others. If each individual improves, the society, nation and world will automatically improve.

Other topics mentioned in the religious books that are not related to the subject of soul should be considered as local beliefs of that time. When a knowledgeable person talks to a less knowledgeable, he/she speaks the language of less knowledgeable. Therefore, the topics covered in the religious books that do not lead to the process of soul purification should be considered coincidental and of less significance.

Science & Religion: Science and religion both search for truth. Without experimentation and practice the truth cannot be achieved. Science experiments and examines - sometimes with a force. First, it proves and then we trust. But, science has randomness. The research is mostly driven by material objectives. Science discovers temporary solutions for happiness. Science can be expressed in a language.

In religion, first we trust and then experiment. After successful experimentation, we experience the truth. There is no compulsion in religion. Religion seeks permanent happiness. The religion cannot entirely be expressed in words. The search for the realistic religion should be the ultimate goal of the science. Today, science and religion are complementary to each other. Someday, the science and the religion will be one.

Einstein once said “Science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind.” Every scientist has to be spiritual in his work ethics to do the best research. Einstein regretted that he could not develop a complete field theory. He wanted to include consciousness as one of the parameters. The field theory of Jainism includes Einstein’s field theory plus consciousness. Einstein believed in reincarnation. Einstein wanted to become a monk in his next life, so that he can know qualities of soul.

Summary: Religion is for teaching the art of living. Practice is the religion. Self-effort is the main part of the religion. We must have right religion, guru and Bhagwan to follow. We must have right knowledge to practice. Religion should be the integral part of the life. Religion brings balance in our life. Religion is for enhancing the value of our life.
