Travelling - the ongoing experience...

Aren't you already travelling?
Life is itself a journey. Isn't it? Aren't you already travelling? Yes, you are but you need to be enjoying more. Everybody is not having it to its maximum.

You could try many things. One of the best solution is to travel, visit new places and have experiences as we have been doing with our lives. Let us find out the places that are close to our life or life-like and then explore them, feel them, live them.

This could be much more rewarding than you ever thought of to get from you outings. It is that simple. Actually, we often miss simple things but some are very rewarding. Now as we want to make most of it, we will do it consciously so that we can identify in advance what we are actually going to do?

So, what would be the next step?

Before deciding on where to go it is very important that you give a thought to what type of place actually to go for? What kind of crowd you are going to see there? Will it be conducive to mental peace? Will it bring some growth to your kids? All this type of queries should be in your mind before deciding on any place.

How to get here?
But inside your mind the question should always be in the form 'How to get Where?'. This helps keep you updated on the appropriateness of the place being visited.

Where to stay?
You are right in thinking about the safety first. No matter what do not compromise on safety.

What to eat?
Will rules be of any help? Yes and No.

It has to deal with your taste rather than the rules you might have been cramming for long now. Develop a taste. Taste, that brings health. It is not so difficult to find your 'that' food as you are now at a place that is so natural, full of greenery and clean air, to nourish you and your senses.

Rules may be broken by the drive of taste. This you have seen but desire for health brings you back to rules and then your taste pulls you away. So, invite taste. Love your taste. With it also cultivate your taste. Have a taste that will help you nourish your body, mind and soul.

Build Knowledge-friendly Culture

In today's scenario, we cannot be ignorant of cultures. Everybody belongs to some culture. Some cultures evolved with time based on race, region etc. So, everybody knows what culture is.

What is knowledge-friendly culture anyway? Why do I recommend to be a part of the knowledge-friendly culture and evolve with it?

Knowledge lies in our head. It is not visible to anyone else until and unless we intend to do so. But, when two individuals meet with the same knowledge domain predominant in their head, chemistry of knowledge starts working. Bonding starts taking place in them. Culture... in most primitive state starts taking shape. Even today, we can have such primitive cultures that belong to just two individuals. The moment two individuals join and experience their knowledge domain together they share, they evolve. This is the meaning of knowledge-friendly culture. This is the beginning of knowledge-friendly culture.

As the number increases from one to two or more individuals it has the possibility to become a phenomenon. As the number increases, culture evolves. All the dividing factors seize to exist when people share knowledge. Knowledge welcomes knowledge.

When different knowledge domains combine, culture grows even faster. When the opposite thoughts of schools combine and realize the same essence in their beliefs, miracle happens. Generally, we don't realize that though. But, that is very much there in the unconscious portion of our mind. Actually, that is what has kept the human race alive. Otherwise, we would have all killed one another on the basis of our racial or regional cultures only. We would have gone out of existence long before.

Message of all this is we should bring the power of knowledge to the front and consciously be aware of the power of knowledge.

Knowledge-friendly culture keeps growing for the reason nothing can stop it. We may be unaware but it happens that way. Let us openly share knowledge unbiased with the other forms of cultures. Biases attached to those cultures should not stop the knowledge-based culture. Knowledge embraces knowledge. Knowledge evolves from knowledge. And, so do we.

Make Sanskrit India's National Language

To The Government of India:

This petition is to solicit nationwide support to make Sanskrit National Language of India.

WHY?

1. Sanskrit is the oldest, most highly evolved language in the world.
2. Till now, unanimous support from all localities has not been achieved for any single language. Sanskrit, no doubt will be acceptable to all.
3. Sanskrit carries with it our ancient culture and has the capability to assimilate any level of modernization and advancement.
4. Major Indian languages are derived from Sanskrit. It should already have been accepted as National Language.
5. Sanskrit is fundamentally strong in phonetic and grammar.
6. Sanskrit is purely a scientific language. Every word and character has a definite reason and meaning to it for pronunciation, meaning and formation of new words.
7. It is easy to learn Sanskrit, as most of the Indians already know the alphabets, as they are already being used in major Indian languages.

ACTIONS REQUIRED:

1. Declare Sanskrit - the National Language of India.
2. Make a time-bound plan for Sanskrit literacy taking help of NGO's if required.
3. Make Sanskrit a compulsory subject for study in Middle and High schools.
4. Promote Sanskrit to be made an elective subject in schools across the world.

It is high time that we demand all school boards and minority schools to offer Sanskrit as a compulsory language in their school curriculum. Sanskrit will help bring our kids and us closer to India.

Internationally also, we have been seeing the trend... people moving towards eastern culture, now moving deeper into the roots - taking initiation, singing Name, chanting, practicing yoga etc. We see growing interest in these traditional sciences and people living with greater understanding. But, something is missing when they are attracted towards eastern culture. Originality is missing. It is true many a time with the eastern born and brought ups also. They also feel not connected to the root. The missing link can only be connected with the classical language - Sanskrit.

On the onset, it might look impractical to propose an ancient language for acceptance as a National or International language 'for all modes of communication'. But, that cannot be accepted as a sufficient reason to stop us promoting Sanskrit, as it will have long lasting benefits for the generations to come. Every alphabet of Sanskrit carries life in it. It is alive. It implements itself. Very sound of the character implements the deep meaning living in it in the words using them. Sanskrit is not limited to just forming a set of characters to provide a piece of information. It is much more than that. Vedic mathematics, Mantra Yoga etc. are some of the easily graspable benefits that have become popular recently.

Sanskrit is the best language in this world that can assimilate and give us the best of both worlds - ancient world and the modern world.

Inspired by 'God Is My Broker'...

I find the book written targetting money hungry people (in other words most of us). So, everything is conditioned in the name of God accordingly.

Best use of the book would be to burn it, in case you bought it.

I Am Your Broker.

1. If God calls... listen to Him.
   There is no 'if'. The bell is always ringing. Listen to Him.
2. God equally loves all.
   I love money hungry poors. They pay me for whatever I do in the name of money.
3. God does not help hypocrites.
   Don't worry. I am there with you.
4. Thank God.
   Why should God thank anybody? Have you done any favour to Him?
   I thank you for paying me.
5. Happy people attract money.
   "It's only money that has the power to make you happy." - is a myth.
6. Love all.
   Sinners attack one another for false sense of happiness.
7. Get Rich books are full time waste.
   Best way to get rich with a best selling book is to raise controversy with it.
   • Burn it.

How to earn what you want?

Money is energy.

If you spend your energy in right direction and your energy flows in the right pipe towards money, your energy makes money flow towards you. This is in proportion to the warmth of energy flow you generate.

So, let the energy flow. If it doesn't flow in the direction of money, do not try hard. Watch where it is flowing to, that will come back to you. There is no need to worry though. You will enjoy that because flow of energy towards that means you enjoy that. This is the reason energy is flowing towards that... in that direction.

Do not try to change the direction of flow towards money or something else. Just, enjoy whatever the universe is reciprocating. Accept whatever the universe is giving to fulfill your interest and enjoy...

Are we poisonous by nature?

Humans are considered very decent and non-violent people. At least we love to believe so.

For long I have known this as a fact that if we don't consume salt for a long period our body become poisonous. This suggests that we are poisonous otherwise.

Oceans happen to be our major source of salt but there are many human races that did not evolve on sea beaches. We have survived in jungles and places far away from oceans. That also means we are not dependent on oceans for our survival. So, consumption of salt should not be a compulsion to make us non-poisonous.

Does that also mean that we as humans are not vegetarian but non-vegetarian? We have many theories that suggest we are vegetarian.

What is the correct fact about us? Any facts and thoughts are welcome.
