Republic Day

Dictionary meaning of republic: is a form of government in which the head of state is not a monarch and the people (or at least a part of its people)have an impact on its government.

Whats does that mean in India: The Republic Day of India commemorates the date on which the Constitution of India came into force replacing the Government of India Act 1935 as the governing document of India on January 26, 1950. The date 26 January was chosen to honour the memory of the declaration of independence of 1930.

What Does that mean to us: Its another National holiday where nobody bothers what exactly does that mean. Only thing matters that this a holiday when u are free from your office job & occupied with your family job. I remember being a kid i was very fond of republic day parade & use to stick to our black & white TV till the time entire parade doesn't get through. When i grew little younger, i use to play patriotic songs loud on our music system all through the day to enjoy independence day & in the evening there was always a showcase of hindi patriotic movie on Doordarshan channel which i never missed at all. Things had changed a lot during these years, communication & media had changed the India to far distinct. There was a time when we use to watch religious serials like Mahabharat & Ramyana, entire village gathers around a single Television set to get the glimpse of God Rama or God Krishna. I remember the similar moment being a kid when i use to visit my grant parents village & on the sunday's we had travel 3Kms from our village to another village to watch one of the serial of Ramayana. Nowadays communication had changed us to such an extend that we cant even think of those old days.

How should we celebrate Republic Day of India: The real spirit behind such a grand celebration is not only to celebrate India's secularism and democracy but also to make every Indian feel proud of our rich culture, languages, dialects, traditions, customs and religions that makes India a marvelous multicultural country. Let's all come together and feel proud, identify ourselves as true Indians, and not to a particular religion or caste. Let's take a pledge deep inside our hearts to promote one feeling, one religion and one thought: of Being a true Indian.

Jai Hind

Grow Old with Someone you Love..............

My hair had gone grey, my eyes had gone weak. I am nearing onto my 70's, my old habits of late rising from sleep had changed. Now me and my wife had turned early risers. We are back from our morning walk. With a cup of tea, i am reading the newspaper headlines. Nothing much had changed politically in India all through these years. Priyanka Gandhi's son is on the verge to be the next prime minister of India, Kejriwal's son is still fighting against corruption. Lets put end to these newspaper stories here. Nikki (My Wife) is busy with her early morning Yoga session, she had turned 68 years old but still managed to looks 15 yrs younger than her age. I am gazing her my double lenses, its almost 40years of our togetherness and still it seems that we had just got married yesterday. Nikki raises her eyebrows from the corner and asks me whats in the breakfast honey? I distract myself and pretend that i had not heard her words. She speaks more louder with adding - "You...

Sharpen the Saw...............

 Nobody starts walking with their birth............. There is a minimum period of 10-14 months after the birth human baby starts walking, even that too is not an easy path......But when babies are born one thing is inherent and gift of god which is Learning power. It starts as soon as baby comes to in their senses, they start learning from their surroundings, how to move hands, their speech therapy, their observing power. This shows how their mind is so pure and without any outer impurities so honest so true, which is why it is being said "Babies are Form of God's".  Babies start their journey from Crawling to walking which is big learning process but how quickly they learn is very surprising. Ancient India had proven this fact that whatever is being taught in early age of kids, their mind will grab it quickly. Proven example was Son of famous saint Ved Vyas whose name was 'Shuka' and he learned the entire scriptures and all four Vedas when he was not even born. T...

Too Much Thoughts......

Why do I think so much................. This is the standard question which we all ask ourselves very often, its human tendency to think wherever we get a break to our mind. Even at times without getting a break too, mind keeps on working in the background even if you are working on something, even when we are sleeping. It always ticking and its very difficult to control it. Most of our emotions are driven by the thoughts running in the background of our mind. we feel happy if the thoughts are positive, we feel sad if our thoughts in the background are negative. Mind runs faster than the speed of the light, within a second it can think continuously and simultaneously so many thoughts. Most of the time when i drive the car, in the background my mind will start checking the emails which i read 3-4 days back and for which response is yet to be done, or it will start thinking about my parents well being if they are fine and what they would be doing or about 2-3 months ahead what is ...
