When: 31 BC
Where: Rome and Egypt
What’s So Special about Their Love: These two had a love so strong, war was waged against them to break them up. When Mark Antony left his wife, Octavia, for the mesmerizing Cleopatra, Octavia’s brother Octavian brought the army of Rome to destroy them. These two lovers were so entranced with each other that they committed suicide rather than be apart- the ultimate Romeo and Juliet true love story.
I like both the movies MunnaBhai MBBS and Lage Raho MunnaBhai.
I dont know about the Gandhi`s political decisions but I believe in his teachings to the nation.
Today’s globally interconnected and interdependent world where we raise our children is very different from the world we grew up in.
In order for children to grow up prosperous and happy in today’s world, they need to gain awareness of how connected we are, and the sooner they learn about it, the better.
We should teach them about the planet we live on, so that they understand how we exist in a single ecosystem, with myriad interactions running throughout nature’s still, vegetative, animate and human levels.
We should also teach them about the solar system, the influence of the sun and the moon over the Earth, how seasons change, and how natural forces shape our lives.
In terms of human development, we should show children that divided civilizations and nations become antagonistic and filled with problems, while united ones prosper.
Most importantly, we need to teach them the interconnectedness and interdependence of nature’s forces as a single system and their effect on us. They should understand that even though they connect through today’s technologies, their connection extends beyond technology to other people and nature on all of its levels.
The goal of emphasizing humanity’s and nature’s interconnectedness in children’s education is to nurture their positive connections with their environment, i.e. with other people and nature. If they grow up with a sensation that caring for other people and nature positively affects them, and vice versa, that not caring about other people and nature negatively affects them, then they will bypass a lot of suffering and live enjoyable, peaceful and harmonious lives.
The key point in this connection-enriching education is to understand that our attitude to other people and nature is an ongoing relationship. We can then understand the reciprocity in nature. Thriving relationships, whether in families, friendships, couples, work relations, or in society at large, require mutual consideration. The advantages of reaching genuine friendship and even love in a relationship always override the efforts we apply to get there. Therefore, gaining awareness of our interconnectedness and interdependence should lead us to the conclusion that we should invest in our connections to realize our interdependence positively.
Animals have no instinctive drive to harm other animals. Any killing of other animals that they do is out of necessity for their survival, but not out of a sinister intention to enjoy the other animals’ suffering. People, however, have an additional egoistic quality, as it is written, “The inclination of a man’s heart is evil from his youth.” We should thus raise our children with a constant concern that they will learn the interconnectedness and interdependence of everyone and everything, and think and act accordingly.
Hinduism is a way of life. Thousands of year
ago Samskaras or sacraments were instituted by Hinduism to bring sanctity and
stability to the lives of the individuals and to integrate their personalities
with the society they were born in. The ancient seers and sages, gifted with
light and resource, tried to transform the crude animal into a refined man with
the help of the Samskars. As in Philosophy so in rituals, life is regarded as a
cycle. From birth to death a Hindu person undergoes 16 Samskaras; and marriage
is one of the most important among them.
Manu,
the great sage enjoins, ‘Having spent the first quarter of one’s life in the
house of the preceptor, the second quarter in one’s own house with the wife,
and the third in the forest, one should take Sannyas in the fourth quarter,
casting away every worldly tie.’
The
sacrament of marriage impresses upon a person that earthly life is not to be
despised; rather it should be consciously accepted and elevated to the level of
a spiritual existence. This is the rich, noble heritage of Hindu ethos.
Thousands
of Hindu families are settled outside India all over the world. They have
strong ties with the Hindu culture and way of life, and feel that should, on
such important occasions of life like marriage, avail themselves of the rich,
noble heritage of Hindu thought. They like to perform the Samskara in the
traditional Hindu way.
However,
even those who are staying in India, know little Sanskrit. No wonder those who
are not born in India, find it unfamiliar. For their convenience, Jnana
Prabodhini has translated the rites into English. Similar English versions of
Namakaran (naming ceremony ), Upanayana (thread ceremony ), Ganesha Pooja,
Satyanarayana Pooja, are also available. Receptions are usually arranged to
celebrate the joy of wedding. Gatherings of near and dear ones most certainly
enhance the pleasure of the occasion. However, Hindu marriage ceremony is a
sacred vow, an ennobling Samskara and it is advisable that the rites may be
performed in the presence of a limited number, in a serene, quiet atmosphere
and the other celebrations follow later.
Punyahavachan
(calling the day auspicious), Sankalpa (expressing the desire to marry),
Mangalsutrabandhana (adorning bride’s neck with the auspicious necklace,
Panigrahan (receiving hands), Agnisaksha Pratijna (pledge before the fire),
Lajahoma (sacrificing popped rice), Parikraman (perambulating the holy fire),
Shilarohan (ascending the stone), Saptapadi (walking seven steps together) and
Karmasamapti (concluding ceremony) are supposed to be the essential rites in
marriage. Nakshatradarshan [soliciting the blessings of seven sages (stars) and
Dhruva (pole star)], Griha Pravesh (the bride enters the in-laws’ house, and
Lakshmipoojan are optional rites.
The
whole content of marriage ceremony is rich with noblest thoughts. In Hindu
tradition, marriage is not just a contract between two individuals. It is a
union of two souls for their own betterment, for the betterment of their
progeny, of their relations and the society at large. Grihasthashrama (life of
the householder) is supposed to be the backbone of the society. It shelters all
other Ashramas-phases of life. Ashramas and Purusharthas form the fabric of
Hindu life.
Purusharthas
are major goals to be attained in the life span for the attainment of Dharma
(righteous life), Artha (material resources), Kama (fulfillment of natural
desires), marriage is instrumental. Moksha (self-realization) is an individual
pursuit,
Any
gentleman or lady of good character belonging to any caste or creed can conduct
the ceremony as a priest or a priestess.
The
beauty and sublimity with which our forefathers formulated it are unmatched.
Stability is foundation of all relationships in Hinduism.
The cheap use and throw mentality is western concept.
Even relationships are being like use and throw nowadays with
degraded social values and replaced gratitude.
Divorces are easy, live-in relationship is easy, sex is easy.
Our vedic heritage thought of stability and chastity in
relationships.. hence the concept of marriage of janmas and not for this birth
only.
Even servants were serving the master for generations. Even
masters treated the servants with that trust. Stability is the key in
relationships.
The western culture has destroyed all gratitude, chastity and
stability in life. There is no sense of stability in life but just use and
throw. Relationships are valued in terms of money. Just use and move forward
for more money.
A conscious being makes a conscious choice to take next janma
with same soul.
Devi and Ma Parvati are same soul in different janmas who
both married Shiva.
Ma Laxmi is always consort of Shri Vishnu. All Shri Vishnu
avatars have Ma Lakshmi incarnate as his partner.
Shri Rama and Ma Sita are a stable committed couple.
Gandhari decides to even blind-fold her eye for life when she
found that Dhritrashtra was blind. That was her commitment and stability and
not compulsion or requirement.
Mandodri is one of chaste women’s revered in Hinduism. Her
chastity and stability ensured long life for Ravana.
An unconscious person in kali yuga makes unconscious choices
and is stuck in maya matrix of materialism, is stuck in pleasures of his senses
and cannot easily realize these sacred values and sacred truths.
Having 2 kids is such a blessing . . . because they entertain each other. Oh, and family outings are more fun, they look after each other as they get older, and all that other stuff. But I’m going to give it to you straight: it’s not going to feel like a blessing in the beginning. And that’s OK because it’s only for a little while. During those first few months, it’s all aboutsurvival.
I wish someone had been honest with me about the beginning months with two kids, other than “You’ll be fine!” You will be fine, but it is definitely worth to prepare yourself for bringing home baby number two.
Single children are often pampered and spoiled. They don't know sharing and caring and most importantly they miss the love of one very important person in their lives; the sibling. Honestly, the petty fights, sharing food, going to school together, growing up together, seriously, it matters a lot! There is more to your life than just being in parents' laps.
You explore many of your first-times with your siblings. There are a load of things which are dangerous to share with your parents, it is your siblings who come to rescue! Trust me, This is true! Blood relation is very strong and one gets a lifetime companion whom they can lean onto anytime.
To give you an example, I have one cousin who had full focus of his parents. He rarely did chores, did not get to play with friends or others after dinner, and spent most of his time at study or watching TV. He spent every summer alone. Most of his friends had siblings, and he always lamented not having someone to share secrets with, or play with after dinner.
On the contrary I was the eldest of two. We spent countless hours pretending the floor was lava, made up secret languages to keep secrets from our parents and friends, and hid from monsters under each other’s beds. Even when we fought, we loved each other. We became best friends. I would not trade him for the world.
Empowerment doesn't mean smoking, drinking, exploring sexuality (like shown in Netflix's She) only, it means fighting against all the odds and coming out on top. Its about setting goals and achieving them, its about becoming A WINNER !!
Women’s empowerment can be defined to promoting women’s sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices, and their right to influence social change for themselves and others.
It is closely aligned with female empowerment – a fundamental human right that’s also key to achieving a more peaceful, prosperous world.
Below mentioned are 7 principles can be used to empower women in the marketplace, workplace and community.
The seven Principles are:
Principle 1: Create high-level corporate leadership for gender equality
Principle 2: Treat all people fairly at work, respecting and supporting non-discrimination and human rights
Principle 3: Ensure the health, wellbeing and safety of all workers, whether male or female
Principle 4: Promote education, training and professional development for women
Principle 5: Implement supply chain, marketing practices and enterprise development that empower women
Principle 6: Champion equality through community initiatives and advocacy
Principle 7: Measure and report publicly on progress to create gender equality
