You owe more than what you own
YOU OWE MORE THAN WHAT YOU OWN IN YOUR
PERSONAL LIFE
This time for a change I opted for a different and typical subject for the readers. I had been contemplating for quite sometimes on the subject in depth and as a result arose the subject title. I have a reasonable hope that readers will relish reading this, understand and grasp the essence in its right perspective and spirit to retain in mind rather than reading and erasing from the mind.
I have come across good number people and had personal interaction with them who are proud, happy, delighted and enjoys a sense of possession of what they own-be it money, wealth, properties, shares, stocks, bullions etc. Many of them are enthusiastic, exuberant, vibrant and happy over what all they own- One can keep a record of what all he owns and prepare a statement of one’s owning and at one point of time in life execute will to bequeath the owning to kith and kin-that being the one side of the life.
As a matter of fact no body owns anything whatsoever as mentioned above and we are all
temporary custodians of what we consider to own. It’s absolutely true if only one thinks deeper and realizes this truth. On the contrary we owe a lot to various others. You owe a lot to the divine supreme who brought to you to this world in human form. You owe a lot to your parents who were instrumental and taken every bit of care and nurtured untiringly for what you are today. You owe a lot to your best half (your wife) who is instrumental, influential and inspirational for what you are going to be in future, you will owe a lot to your children for what you are going to be at later part of your life and last but not least you owe a lot to yourself and you have to pay back by yourself to wipe off the owes (contemplate to contemper then you will realize what it means) it goes on like this never ending and immeasurable. I for one thing do not believe in monitory gains, compliances and compromises to pledge or give up the family relationship supposed to be retained clean and clear.
You make an attempt to keep a record of what all you owe to others- It will be a next to impossible task unlike maintaining a record of your owning.
Have you ever come across a person executing a will of what all he owe and to bequeath to his successors? According to me it’s never happened. If at all it happens as a rarest of rare event will one accept it? Not at all. Therefore it becomes imperative on the part of man to make best of efforts to clear what he owe to others to the best possible extent before bidding bye to his physical existence.
How do you clear what you owe to the divine supreme? It is he who has been kind and benevolent enough for all that you own. But for his kindness and consideration just imagine what you could have been? A big cipher. Think of him, pray in praise of him and let your prayer be of thanks giving, spent some time with him in solitude and silence daily, converse with him in silence daily and thereby make a beginning to pay back what you owe to him.
How do you pay back what you owe to your parents? Be kind and considerate towards them, express your love to them, show them your glowing and smiling face always, give them your love and affection, and always refrain from causing hurt to their feelings and sentiments (sentiments and feelings become particularly precious as one grows old)-when they are emotionally run down, re-charge and lift them up with sweet words of encouragement, comfort, soothing and old age motivation. It is not going to cost you monetarily- and even if one wants to repay what he owes to parents in monitory terms one can never achieve because it is beyond one’s capacity and reach to pay back to parents in monitory terms-just hold on to this and retain in mind.
How do you pay back what you owe to your best half? This is not that difficult according to me. Sharing is caring. You have to share all her moments with care. Express your true love and implement the true love in day-to-day life. Be concerned about her rather than worrying about her. For a change, change the policy of GIVE AND TAKE instead makes it GIVE AND ACCEPT (I hope your able to distinctly identify the difference between take and accept.). Having accepted her as best part of your life keep her in best form and mood always. Look her as A THING OF BEAUTY- to commensurate with the age-old saying A THING OF BEAUTY IS JOY FOR EVER and maintain this tempo. Outlook and attitude always. Concede to her reasonable desires and ambitions for mutual benefit and betterment of both. If you really follow caring is sharing policy coupled with taking care of her needs and moods you will not land up piling up of owes.
Now coming to children, you owe them much more than what you owe to others. It is on your own sweet will, wish and interest; you gave birth and brought them to this earth. Therefore it is imperative and essential and its your responsibility to bring them up in a nice and befitting manner with good academics, instill in them good values of living, ethics and etiquettes and make the world smile at them for their good conduct, deed and good living. This is the only stage in life of a man wherein he OWES A LOT AND OWN A LOT (of responsibility) in upbringing them in a perfect and harmonious way of living.
Similarly with every relationship in your personal life you owe more than what you own to maintain perfect harmony and understanding to lead a purposeful living. It is only the question of understanding this truth at the appropriate and right time at various stages of life so that you make a beginning to pay back rather than allowing to pile up owe and make it impossible to pay back.
Even though money, wealth etc. is every thing into-days living, it’s not ultimate. Ultimate is some thing totally distinct and different and one has to take careful initiative and interest to understand and abide by its ethics and principles to reap the incentive. What you own at the end will not accompany you when you quit this world but what you owe will not leave you and it will follow you and be with you in your come next on this earth. Therefore do not allow even the shade of the owe to accompany you. Leave this world with virtue, wisdom, knowledge and ethics. They will remain with you and accompany you when you come back to this earth again and will do lot of good to you and your succeeding generation.
Thanking you all readers and looking forward to your valuable feedback for improvement.

Change prerogative into Privilege
CHANGE PREROGATIVE INTO PRIVILEGE
It’s with an earnest request, I would require the readers to distinctly understand the difference between Prerogative and Privilege with its real meaning and change the former into latter. It may not be that easy in the beginning to bring about the required change as suggested. But once a sincere and earnest effort is made one will certainly be able to make it and enjoy it’s reap and results in abundance.
Many of you must have heard enough and few of you must have even used the word Prerogative inappropriately in various scenario and occasion such as Board meetings, Discussions, debates, family/ social gatherings etc.Talkers and Speakers using this word Prerogative to emphasize and establish their power of position and circumstantial power to make and feel many in the in the gathering ,dejected, depressed and embarrassed. It all begins like this- It’s my prerogative to……….Its again my prerogative to………It’s once again my prerogative to……….. and its always my prerogative to…… and goes on like this for quite some times until they quench the thirst and satisfy the hunger of their EGO and failing to note and understand that its only a temporary phenomenon, paving foundation for inner guilt forever( and this will be realized only at a very later stage of life)
This usage of Prerogative revolves and evolves in the minds of certain people, be it in corporate situation/business situation, personal and family scenario, academics life/career growth path etc, just because people do not care to get away Prerogatives and substitute with privileges, because of their ignorance, and due to this the prerogative always super commands and maintain its perfect and fine edge over Privilege in usage.
On the contrary, if only the speaker/talker/others as the case may be replaces the word Prerogative with Privilege in all the places of its use during the course of the speech/talk,
/conversation etc, it would have created a tremendous amount of fine changes and desired satisfaction in the minds of the listeners and created an indelible best of impression of the speaker, leading to the privilege of elated image and contentment of the speaker followed by the loud applause and satisfaction of his listeners/audience confirming his mankind.
From the foregoing, the readers must have clearly observed that the root cause of using this word prerogative is mainly due to their EGO and at times due to their gross arrogance and ignorance. It’s easy to overcome this weakness- Do like this- replace the the alphabet E in the EGO with A and then it becomes AGO which shall mean the ego in the person has vanished and the EGO has now become a matter of past by becoming AGO. I hope I have been able to convey it rightly for the benefit of the readers and may all those needs to be changed from prerogative to privilege be graced by the Supreme Power to achieve this fact of the life and to manifest your lives with magnanimity.

useful tips on bath and sleep
SOME USEFUL TIPS ON BATH AND SLEEP
BATH: -
Bath and sleep are two things one can hardly afford to miss during the life span. Hence it is advisable and better to have some awareness on these: -
The following are the most convenient and conventional types of baths: -
Shower bath: Is in the form of cold water spray on the head and body.
Dip/Plunge bath to immerse the body in cold water and come out.
Splash bath: Cold water is splashed all over the body.
Sponge bath: Dipping towel/sponge in water and wringing it softly and quickly over the body.
A daily bath in the cold water in the morning before sunrise is indeed bracing, invigorating, energizing and refreshing- the reason being water that gets cooled during the night evolves much oxygen at this time. Try as much and as far as possible for a cold-water bath as this the best health measures that exist. It stimulates all the functions of the body and makes the skin more resistant to cold.

SLEEP: -
Is a physiological phenomenon by which the mind, brain and all the organs get rest? It may be noted that during sleep the mind go back to it source. It is nature’s tonic for a healthy life. The more sound sleep one has, healthier one would be. The saying goes like this- six hours of sleep for a man, seven hours sleep for a woman
and ten hours of sleep for a child. As far as possible maintain same time daily for sleep. Wear loose clothing and avid using heavy blankets and sheets for covering the body. It is the quality of the sleep that matters and the quantity.

IS THERE IS GOD IN MAN ? YES INDEED & OFCOURSE
IS THERE GOD IN MAN? YES INDEED & OF COURSE
There is God in Man and there need not be any doubt on this, as this has been contained in Hindu mythology, presently be known as Indian literature , details the lives and times of legendary personalities and divine incarnations on earth,. Despite connotations of fiction in common usage, the term myth, (forms the part of Mythology) in theological and academic studies, does not necessarily imply that this is untrue. Therefore it may be noted that many of the topics that falls under the Hindu mythology are cherished beliefs and have proved to be historical accounts. It’s also intertwined with ancient Vedic religion and Vedic civilization and is fundamentally connected with Hindu system of philosophy. Hence should not become a matter for dispute or debate, but accept this truth gracefully and faithfully.
It may also be noted that Lord Brahma, out of his thought created seven sages, known as SAPTHA RISHIS who are the FATHERS of all other created beings and the seven sages are: BRIGU, ANGIRA, ATRI, VISHWAMITRA, KASHYAPA, VASHISHTA & AGASTHYA- to establish the fact that first creator and the first created being MEN.
There is a good old ancient belief and saying – God created Man and Man created God and both are same in the name and form (i.e. Manusho devo bhva Tatwamasi) unfortunately in today’s scenario, by and large man takes time to realize this truth. When God created man, man felt lonely and was not aware of what to do- he with reverence and devotion prayed and humbly pleaded to the creator for a company and thus God himself entered into the heart of man and still he finds his abode in man’s heart- that’s why it is being said that Man’s heart is a flame of Love and space with purity and divinity” that’s why God dwells in his heart.
Now having become the part of the supreme power, man thought how to make woman Goddess. Man in consultation with the God within him, have decided to make woman Goddess, by parting with half of the body to woman (As lord Siva did to his consort Paravathi and became Ardhanareeswarar) and thus came the first incarnation of Goddess in the name and form of Sakthi, originated by Man and from Man- That’s why it is said and considered that there is no Sakthi without Siva which means there is no existence of Woman without Man. The very word Woman came into being as man is there in WO (man) and with out this Man, woman will be only WO and this means, misery, misfortune, calamity, pain, curse etc... It is Man who has removed all these adversities and negative elements from woman by adding himself to WO as man (Woman) and parting away with half of his body with intellectual wisdom, knowledge, divine possession and position to woman and created woman. To re-emphasize the God in man look at this-again from the ancient sayings by Rishis that woman gets the credit, benefit and half share of all the good thoughts, actions and deeds of man and he in turn gracefully accepts half share of sins and adversities out of the thought, actions and deeds of Woman- what a magnanimity in a Man as in God. That’s why its quite of ten said God is great so as Man. One has to gracefully believe it and accept this fact with unstinted belief and faith. To-day in many Indian families man (husband) is considered God to be worshipped first by woman (wife) before temple and deity worship and this principle and practice followed has brought about tremendous amount of favorable and prosperous results to the family.
By reading texts on Hinduism, Hindu mythology, Hindu scriptures, Hindu epic, Vedic mythology, Vedanta siddantha etc. one will gather more knowledge on the subject to accept the facts of the titled subject gracefully.
May God grace & bless all.

According to ancient Indian philosophy ,Culture and heritage AN IDEAL HUSBAND AND A RIGHTIOUS WIFE (In Indian divine language i.e. in Sanskrit it is referred to as Uthmapurushan and Dharma Pathni) makes a perfect couple paving way for a healthy living and prosperous family. I find no reason and justification why this concept cannot be accepted and followed by ROW (No doubt many a country has begun to follow the system in a snail’s pace).The end result would be an ideal, prosperous, healthy and a unique family on its path to progress, prosperity and phenomenal growth.
A man (husband) has to lead and live a life filled with love, ethics, cleanliness, faith, trust, good understanding and care for the good cause and sake of his family. Have concern for each and every member of his family without discrimination and perform his duties with care and caution to reach the pinnacle of peace, prosperity and contentment Being the head of the family he is responsible and accountable for the overall development and growth of the family in an IDEAL manner. Ideal is a sober word with soft meanings and man has to remain sober and soft at all times during the course of his living.
The woman (wife) on the other hand is expected to assist the man in performance of his duties as mentioned above, apart from performing her duties in a rightful and righteous manner without causing even an iota of damages to the sentiments and thoughts of one and all in the family-herein ethics, love and divinity plays a vital role, to be borne in mind at all times.
As a matter of fact, wife plays a lead role in the well being and prosperity of the whole family (a traditionally accepted truth) but of course in necessity in consultation and consent of the husband as she is considered and accepted as Goddess of wealth and prosperity (known as MAHALASHMI) and by following the traditionally prescribed way of living (as mentioned above) nothing in the world can prevent her from attaining the prosperity and well being of the family. The husband being an ideal man should always extend his whole hearted support to the wife to achieve her ultimate goal for the welfare and well being of the family. In a nutshell it’s a team effort and work, mixed with ideal and righteous by the husband and wife.
How do you build and maintain an excellent future generation? The wife (mother for children) plays an important role in this respect. As a mother she holds more responsibility in bringing up the children in the right manner with high values of Love higher values of Ethics and highest values Living It should be begun at grass root level so that the edifice of moral values, ethical values, values of dignity, self respect, respect for others etc are instilled in the children from early child-hood itself. It’s not a short term assignment but a duty extends for long time, and at all times she seeks the man’s support and guidance, it must be extended and accorded with out a second thought. Righteous is a powerful word and to fulfill the powerful task the woman has to be righteously powerful to perform and fulfill her duties towards the family.
The relationship of man and woman (husband and wife) is so close knit if not handled with duty bound, devotion and dedication ,will loosen the close knit strings of relationship causing deterioration. Let the purpose of living together of man and woman be fulfilled the way it should be in accordance with the tradition, heritage and culture surrounded by ethics and elegance always and let man and woman together pave way for their own perfect living and to build an excellent and exciting future generation.
May God bless all couples and their children for an exciting and excellent living and future?

SPIRITUALITY NOW ON SALE
SPIRITUALITY NOW ON SALE: BE ON ALERT
Have you ever heard of this? Will you ever believe it? Yes it is indeed quite true-Spirituality is now available for buying and only the thing is its DESIRED EFFECTS and GOOD RESULTS are unguaranteed as these are suppressed and unrevealed to the prospective buyers. May be for many of the readers it sounds funny and unbelievable and for a few, it may not be even be acceptable-but one thing is sure, at the end of this reading you will agree with me and accept all the facts contained in this article to be accepted in its totality- Real scenario linked personal experience is the best master than what you hear otherwise and through other unreliable sources.
I had been keenly observing this sale trend for quite some time, under different attractive names, banners, terminologies etc and it truly appears that market is picking up very well globally. It will not be surprising that if some of these banners (with brand image & equity) might even opt for an IPO with premium to lure number of IDIOTS (I mean):-
Ignorant ones
Deluded ones
Innocent ones
Obstinate ones
Timid ones
Stagnant ones
It’s all just because people are loosing faith in themselves, their ability, capacity, strength, will power and confidence, instead relying on the so called spiritual Icons, may be called as spiritual vendors assisted by spiritual brokers.
While God worship is universally accepted by all faiths according to the faiths rituals and principles, it should not be misused under the banners and influence of spiritual icons & vendors. While one has every right to pray and worship God, it necessarily doesn’t require directions and instructions from spiritual vendors and brokers- herein I don’t deny spiritual guidance from right sources for gratis and not be traded for monitory gains from the seekers by those who guide . As a matter of fact seekers of spiritual guidance should approach the guidance providers on their own and what we see today is wide publicity from the so called spiritual leaders through print and visual media luring people to multiply their business and amass fortune. There is a saying and firm belief that at the appropriate time a true spiritual master will come to your life (need not be physically) rightly for guidance and teachings and one has to patiently wait and follow the right and righteous path of living, rather than wandering behind above referred icons..
Kindly be very clear in your mind. You have to worship and pray to yield benefit and if some one else does it on your behalf it will have zero effect- as you have to eat when you feel hungry and you have to drink water to quench your thirst and no one else can do these for you to satisfy your hunger and quench your thirst. For the so called spiritual leaders attracting and luring people, please bear in mind- it’s their way of living and lively hood and many of them make it so luxurious at the cost of spiritual seekers. Truly speaking and as per ancient writings and theories, spiritual knowledge and guidance is to be imparted to the seekers free of charge without anticipating anything in return and the seeker in turn has to render services to the master, upkeep of the hermitage and its surroundings. whereas in today’s scenario one has to cough up hefty sums to to the spiritual leaders and shell out in kind expensively. What an agony and innocence to the seeker and boon and gain to the so called spiritual leaders.
In ancient times, Rishis, Yogis & saints who used to impart spiritual guidance and teachings used to live in hermitage and lead a most simple life with barest minimum needs. On the contrary to-day the spiritual leader’s hermitages have been made with luxurious infrastructure with cozy and comfortable living and dining facilities with star ratings. The spiritual leaders being caught and booked under various offences and crimes, following unethical practices and misconduct, need not be emphasized as many of you must be reading through print media and watching through visual media of these happenings. These lots put us to shame and indignity-Think for a mom what a fate (we only can, jointly, change this trend not to grow any further.)
My dear friends every one of you, by the grace of God, have with in you lot of potential, initiative, drive, enthusiasm, energy and divinity embedded with in you when you came to this world and do not depend on some else to tap these to bring it out, Do it by yourself to bring out all these righteous qualities embedded in you and be a divine master by yourself one day and impart the values of spirituality free to the seekers. Let’s not encourage spirituality to become a tradable and marketable commodity.
My dear friends & readers BEWARE, AWARE and be CAUTIOUS and do not get trapped yourself into the spirituality buying stream in the name of learning and knowing spirituality-please do not try to buy what you have already within you , instead bring it out in the right manner and righteous way, and never ever try to BUY SPIRITUALITY.
This article is no way intended to hurt any ones sentiments or inner feelings and being written without any prejudice whatsoever.
May God be with you all, to protect, grace and bless you all always?

Thought Management-A Life Time Gift
THOUGHT MANAGEMENT: A LIFE TIME GIFT
Let me begin the topic with a stanza: -
The intake of food effects your moods and affects your thinking
The thinking effects your mind and affects your vibrations
The vibrations effects your path and affects your living and
The right vibrations will lead you to right thinking and living.
-JK-
To summaries above: -
The “inputs” determines the “output”...........Have good inputs of food
Good inputs of thoughts and associations, to bring about
Good vibrations to lead you to the right destination of life
In the right manner and through right and righteous path.
This is not a philosophical concept but a practical solution for a better, harmonious and happy living.
Every thing we see and experience in today’s world is as a result of: -
What you think
Why you think
How you think
And
When you think
Many of you must have read and studied a lot on various topics on Management and have earned degrees and doctorates in various subjects in management as there are number of leading management schools and institutes imparting coaching in management subjects across the globe- yet it is desirable to know some thing about” THOUGHT MANAGEMENT”
No management institutes/schools can impart coaching in thought management for simple reason that there is an institute of thoughts embedded in every human being, generating thoughts and all that’s needed is to manage these thoughts through chanalising in the right direction within the mind and body before brining it out in the form of actions. That’s why it is being emphasized that one need not attend to any management institute/school to know and learn on THOUGHT MANAGEMENT. It is a self-study and self-mastering subject and once you master it you are the emperor your kingdom (i.e. your body and mind) with all things you would like to achieve to better your living under your control and command.
Now before trying to manage the thoughts, let’s understand how to create vibrant, stimulant, creative and precious thoughts within us.
Please always remember the “inputs” determines the” output” formula.
Morning wake-up: The way you begin your day determines the way you live your day. The first one hour from time you wake up little early in the morning are most valuable moments with profound influence on the remaining of your day and if this precious time is put to use with wisdom and self discipline you will think only purest of thoughts and link only the finest of action, and at the end of this precious hour, you will notice and rejoice to understand that you are going to have a great and marvelous day ahead of you.
Intake of food: -Do not ever put anything less than the best into your body while eating. This will enable you to increase your energy level, maintain perfect health and keeps your moods in perfect harmony. The following items are a must in your daily diet menu: -
Fresh Fruit Juice: Start the morning with a glass of fresh fruit juice. It Increases high-energy level keeps you active and helps to maintain an “Offbeat” mood.
Daily intake of normal food: Make it less greasyand cholosteral in oprder to maintain a high level of motivation and effectiveness. Add green vegetables in your daily menu-this will keep your bodily systems light and cool. Avoid root vegetables as far as possible (with an exception to white and red radish) as it makes you lousy, feel heavy and could lead to gastric related issues. Home made fresh vegetable soups (not the one ready to boil and use stacked in stores) recommended before supper and to end the supper, some fresh fruits of your choice like apple, plantain, oranges etc. This will keep your digestive system in undisturbed condition and you will bodily feel quite light.
Living Environment: Keep your living environment serene and moderately creative. Get up in the morning with good memories and experience of life. Earmark a tiny and cozy corner exclusively for you without any interference and disturbance (could be in a corner of your bedroom, living room or prayer room) for concentration and meditation. This place must be put to its desired use twice in a day first thing in the morning as you wake up and last thing i.e. before you retire to sleep. Now coming to meditation, according to me there is no hard and fast rule, as so many teachers/tutors of meditation has devised their own methods- ultimately it is gradually and in a phased manner bringing your concentration to the focal point between the center of your two eye brows (called meditation point) keeping in mind a divine/serene object and slowly bringing to the meditation (focal) point, retain it there as long as you are able to and then relax mentally and bodily. You will have a feeling of floating with no feeling of body weight. For sitting posture too, there is no hard and fast rule as it depends upon physical /health conditions, age factors etc. What matters are concentration, focus and keeping up of regular timings and these cannot be subject to any compromise.
Maintain good and friendly association so that it matches for you to achieve your life’s goal. Change yourself to circumstances and environments rather than trying the other way.
Work place: You spent a quite a lot of your time in the work place and therefore it is essential that this place remains conducive and congenial to work. Maintain excellent rapport and relationship with all i.e. your sub-ordinates, colleagues, and superiors and boss- in spite of what they are and what moods they are in. Always bear in mind that you have taken steps to change your way of living for good and not to change others minds and moods. At the end of the day you must return home happy contended and justified with your actions and reactions at work place.
Back home to be with your lovable and loving ones: Once you are back home after completing the hectic commitments of the work place, it is essential and be prepared to have an interactive session with your family members. Narrate your days experience/incidents with your wife and child (ren), get feed back from them, Ascertain from them their homely/work place/school/college experience and place your suggestions and opinions if they need from you. Discuss your and their future plans and visions and find a way out to reach the goals set forth by every one in your family (Mind you that this is also a team work and effort and not from commercial /trade point of view but purely from bonded blood knit relationship scenario) Keep in mind that a meal a day together with your family members should form a habit-come what may and this together eating meal should be filled with fun and enjoyment. Otherwise what’s the purpose behind life and living, supposed to be with caring and sharing? Please do not make your life with mundane hectic and herculean activities unrelated to family relationships, affinity and harmonious living. Please ensure to spend at least an hour after joint dinner with your family, (particualarly with your wife and child (ren), engaging all of them in useful and fruitful discussions relating to present and future.
With the above suggested principles and activities, in routine manner good thoughts will be generated in the mind for simple reasons that you have tuned your body and mind in perfectly good harmony.
Now we are coming to the fag end of the subject i.e. how to retain and manage such good thoughts. Adhere to the following guideline principles in your day-to-day living and experience the amazing and marvelous changes that will shake up your undesirable and unwanted thoughts and wake up memorable and good thoughts.
Do not lose the touch with the purpose of living.
Do not lose touch with harmony.
Do not lose touch with humanity.
Do not forget what good, life is all about.
Do not forget to have amity and happiness with your near and dear
Ones.
Do not find fault with others, instead rectify the faults in you.
Accept all that comes to your life as it is, without grudge or greed.
And last but not least
Count your blessings and not disguise.

Always bear in mind that you have taken steps to change your way of living for good and not to change others minds and moods. At the end of the day you must return home happy contended and justified with your actions and reactions at work place.
Back home to be with your lovable and loving ones: Once you are back home after completing the hectic commitments of the work place, it is essential and be prepared to have an interactive session with your family members. Narrate your days experience/incidents with your wife and child (ren), get feed back from them, Ascertain from them their homely/work place/school/college experience and place your suggestions and opinions if they need from you. Discuss your and their future plans and visions and find a way out to reach the goals set forth by every one in your family (Mind you that this is also a team work and effort and not from commercial /trade point of view but purely from bonded blood knit relationship scenario) Keep in mind that a meal a day together with your family members should form a habit-come what may and this together eating meal should be filled with fun and enjoyment. Otherwise what’s the purpose behind life and living, supposed to be with caring and sharing? Please do not make your life with mundane hectic and herculean activities unrelated to family relationships, affinity and harmonious living. Please ensure to spend at least an hour after joint dinner with your family, (particualarly with your wife and child (ren), engaging all of them in useful and fruitful discussions relating to present and future.
With the above suggested principles and activities, in routine manner good thoughts will be generated in the mind for simple reasons that you have tuned your body and mind in perfectly good harmony.
Now we are coming to the fag end of the subject i.e. how to retain and manage such good thoughts. Adhere to the following guideline principles in your day-to-day living and experience the amazing and marvelous changes that will shake up your undesirable and unwanted thoughts and wake up memorable and good thoughts.
Do not lose the touch with the purpose of living.
Do not lose touch with harmony.
Do not lose touch with humanity.
Do not forget what good, life is all about.
Do not forget to have amity and happiness with your near and dear
Ones.
Do not find fault with others, instead rectify the faults in you.
Accept all that comes to your life as it is, without grudge or greed.
And last but not least
Count your blessings and not disguise.

The Other Things Being Equal
“The other things being equal” - A good old Economics clause.
My economics teacher used to apply the above clause, ampty number of occasions while conducting Economics class. Those days, being an immature lad with the lack of grasping power added with inadequacy in command over English language, I hardly could understand anything out of his class lecturers.
Later after entering into commercial activities and own business, I started reading books on Economics and articles related to Economics, I started knowing little more about it and have come to a conclusion that “ THE OTHER THING BEING EQUAL” being used in economics seems to have become “THE OTHER THINGS ARE NEVER QUITE EQUAL”. Observe the contrast.
In the present global scenario trade negotiations by countries, by and large looks more like a barter relationship rather than being modern market transactions. Countries are upto mischievous stand to exert as much as they can to extract in the form of not only concessions and advantages but also in the form of information unconnected with the trade negotiations (an unethical conduct). They make short-term alliance and agreements of short while existence to suit and accommodate their convenience. They even conceal relevant information, instead reveal irrelevant information and the end result looks more like a “modus vivendi” burying the principles of “modus operandi”to be based on the logic of economics and trade justice.
There appears to to exist uncertainty on agreements arrived at (as I have read in the press reports recently) over the recently held Hong Kong ministerial summit. Please take note that developing countries are no longer going to be succumbed into bartering their interests, leading to economic imperfection and such a situation can either delay or defer decisions, creating economic imbalance. The need of the hour is to make a viable, acceptable trading system by all countries. The existing market solutions will not fit into all cases mainly as a result of power relationship amongst the countries and lack of symmetric of information and this impede the clean flow of simple economic models envisage. Its now evident that “THE OTHER THINGS BEING EQUAL” will not work out.
While open trade by all countries should be a welcome concept, may place some developed countries into unacceptable position and this can further impede the infrastructure development, Industrial policies connected with economic development and growth of developing countries. As one size may not fit and suit all, what exactly will fit and suit to which country, will continue to remain a matter of intense debate. As open trading system is mostly a good thing and an acceptable solution for economic development, the barter relationship by countries, existing in the present trade negotiations must be put an end and instead countries should commit themselves to provide free market access in all goods to all developing countries keeping in mind -as the saying goes-You have a right to be protected against the rich and not against the poor. Hence it’s for all countries to keep their fair trade options open within the framework of ethical negotiations keeping in mind “LIVE AND LET LIVE” concept.
Look…. In to-days business scenario anything and everything depends on various policies of the countries, viz economic policy, financial policy, Trade policy, commerce policy, industrial policy, bilateral policy so on and so forth. Therefore its essential for countries policy makers to bear in mind all considerations favorable to developing countries are taken care of and to ensure fair policies are compiled and framed for compliance. Let’s work together to achieve global economy wherein every country will participate and once the global economy is brought to rich, individual economy automatically comes within the reach of richness in economy.

Values of Living
VALUES OF LIVING...................
Remixing ancient values, traditions, heritage and culture with modern out look of living looses the aesthetics of healthy, ethical, fruitful and purposeful living and it is shamelessly being titled and called- Modern Living in the Modern Era and in the modern world. What an agrravative and emphatic situation?
Who has to bear and own the responsibility for this state of undesirable situation: -
Parents
Teachers
Society
Leaders
Rulers
Yes- every one owns their share of this responsibility, which I earnestly and with humility would like to term as our DEBT. Yeas we created this DEBT in the world and it is we alone are responsible to eliminate and do away with this DEBT. Once this DEBT is cleared you will see people living in equity surrounded by the above mentioned richest of ingredients of living.
How to achieve this?
Nothing is IMPOSSIBLE as Napoleon used to think. With joint efforts followed by clear interaction and earnestness coupled with Napoleon way of thinking- the undesired modernity in living can certainly be routed out and make this world a beautiful place to live beautifully.
Initiate good values of living from the very child hood- and for those grown up and missed the opportunity of being initiated follow the right method of counseling at the required intervals. There is no problem with that section of human that have inherited these qualities by virtue of their good luck and circumstances under which lived and grown up- they are indeed lucky and blessed ones. For those who could not for obvious reasons inherit these qualities need to be inculcated in them in the right manner. Parents and teachers will find it easier than other three categories being in a position to easy access to children/pupil and by and large parents and teachers have their own driven initiative for this. The society can also make its contribution appropriately in a desired manner with the efforts and interaction of parents and teachers. This may cover up say about less than 50% of the needy. The remaining needs to be taken care of by leaders and rulers-they play a vital role in building up good citizens, good nation and a good world. It’s so simple for these leaders and rulers to achieve this provided they possess the ancient values, traditions, heritage, and culture within them. My dear friends be cautious and careful while selecting your leaders and electing your rulers. Is there any other better solution? I shall welcome it for spreading.
Thank you all.

IDEAS & CONCEPTS
IDEAS AND CONCEPTS – HOW TO CONCEIVE AND MAKE IT WORK FOR A CONTENDED AND HAPPY LIVING
Thoughts are the root cause and origin of ideas, which in turn are made concepts. Hence it is distinctly clear that one should have clean and clear thoughts compounded by divinity and reverence while formulating thoughts. In order to achieve this, one should visualize and imbibe only good thoughts and contemplate on good thoughts with concentration and orthodox discipline. Regular practice of this will entail in building up good ideas and concepts, which is an essential factor for self-enrichment, achievement of your set aim and attainment of the purpose of having born as human on this earth- be it in biz or personal life. This in turn should be utilized for the enrichment of the people around you to realize the purpose of getting self-enriched.
It is often said that “ Necessity is the Mother of invention” to add to this please remember-“ Need is the Mother of innovation” and it is the cutting edge for a better development. Ideas, Concepts, Creativity and innovations are inter related and one cannot do with out the other to achieve the desired good effect and results- hence all these should float around within one while formulating thoughts. Now in order to conceive ideas and concepts and make it work effectively let’s follow certain system- and this system is not created and prescribed by me but identified by great scholars and Masters of ancient period, who had experienced life in all its fullness while devoting themselves in the pursuit of truth.
Anything we endeavor to begin should commence with invocation to God, to achieve fruitful and desired effects and results- this is what the heritage and customary of human race. So as soon as you wake up in the morning make it a practice to follow this first. It is a known and accepted fact world wide that parents (Mother & Father) are considered to be holding an honored position and are to be considered as God. They are directly related to our birth and upbringing and undoubtedly we are obliged to them more than to anyone and anything else, offer your first prayer to them and you don’t have to seek their blessings because its always for you and with you- and this should be followed by paying reverence and offering prayers to our ancestors daily. In today’s scenario it is enough if children are able to remember their immediate grand parents and abide by the requirements, daily before you get involved with normal and busy routine of the hectic day. Its not going to take a long time to comply with this- May be five to ten minutes of regular and concentrated prayers- but essentially requires life long concerted efforts to ensure that you do not do anything that would adversely affect our rich and valuable heritage, tradition, culture and legacy.
To concise and conclude - follow the above suggested system religiously & sincerely in routine and see for yourself how it works! Excellent ideas and concepts will generate within you as per your wish- because God is truth and it prevails- and I offer my prayers to God to keep all children together with their parents and grandparents in Love and harmony, to live a purposeful and serene life.

Mother the Divine & Greatest of everything
MOTHER- The Divine and the greatest of everything in the
UNIVERSE.
There is an age-old saying authenticated by great yogis (direct disciples of Supreme power) and discovered from the ancient writings (scriptures) and it goes like this: -
Matha, Pitha, Guru & Deivam (in Divine Indian Language) and its true translation in English: - Mother, Father, Master & God in the order of laid down preference and priority for retaining in the mind and heart, paying reverence and to worship.
A discussion was going on between Mother, Father, Master and God as to what they give to their children. The God said- I unhesitatingly and always shower my grace to my children. The master said I pour my blessings to my children always. Now came the turn of the father-he took more time than the God and the Master to tell what all he gives to his children and it goes on like this:
I give A to Z of everything to my children. I give them Ability to Bloom and brighten in a Charismatic and Dignified way. Enthusiasm and Fillip together with Generosity of Happiness filled with Integrity and Joy. I impart knowledge with Love and magnificently give nearness to all good things. As Oneness is a Primary factor to quench the thirst for Togetherness in Reality, I inculcate this in my children with Serenity and Truthfulness. Being Unique is a value added Wisdom thought and I exemplify and Zoom these with Yogic value and groom them for a fine future, contended and happy living
The God and the Master were spell bound and wondered, BUT ONLY FOR AWHILE… and mentioned-What an amazing and great father-he has given so much to his children!!!!!
Now it’s the turn of the Mother to say what she gives. She calmly and reverently said- I give ONLY LOVE to my children added with GRACE, flavored with BLESSINGS and mixed with all that the father has given to children, as I have all these in abundance with me. The God, Master and father were trembled and humbled at the mother and said: -
GOD is Great
Master is Greater
Father is lesser than greatest
AND
MOTHER IS THE GREATEST
And I humbly take the privilege and reverently mention that: -
Mother is an embodiment of LOVE when alive & monument of LOVE when mortal.

Business ethics & Practice
Business Ethics & Practice
“Management is doing things right.
Leadership is doing right things” - Peter F Drucker
Many a business people talk on the subject and have clear cut concept and views on the subject, but when they were to put these good ethics and practice into reality, they just forget about the positive effects and good results of the business ethics and its good practice and dump the whole thing into waste bin- an alarming situation needs to be alerted and averted.
I have never heard and seen of Man eating money but heard and seen of Money eating Man and ‘am quite confident that many of you will agree with me. Man needs a palatable breakfast, a square meal for lunch and a digestible supper at night followed by an undisturbed slumber, so that next day begins with vibrant motion and excellent notion. To make things work beyond the required and expected standard, he succumbs to the situation of” Money eating Man”. This is due to bad cause and its resultant effects invited by man by not adhering to good business ethics , conducive and congenial business practice. It is better to have ethical savings of money rather than unethical amassing of wealth and spending sleepless nights.
An ideal business ethics and practice will comprise of straight forward business deal, across the table direct negotiation, transparent monitory gives and takes, honoring of commitments made, with integrity and loyalty, proper and honest disclosure of financial statements, tax planning inter-alia with savings plan and last but not least prompt payment of taxes due to government followed by charity to recognized institutions towards creating education and employment opportunities to the innumerable young lads waiting in urge, and do away with your surplus money towards good causes and thereby legally and ethically gain tax benefits.)
Hardly a day goes without the news in print/visual media that business people are caught by the enforcement and other appropriate authorities for breaking & violating the Acts and norms to amass money in unethical manner and following bad practice and in turn end up in acute problems and even land up at times in spending more than what they have made good by following unethical business practice. Please bear in mind- Ill gotten money will vanish leaving a scar in the heart & mind through out the life’s existence which ultimately brings ill reputation & bad name not only to self but to the entire family.
The root cause of each and every problem the man faces today is due to unethical conduct and bad practice being adopted and the only solution to this is to reverse the trend & follow ethical conduct and good business practice at all times without any compromise whatsoever.
To conclude this short write-up I would urge all involved in business to follow the principles contained in the quote on the top by THE GREAT Peter F Drucker in deed and action.
