Satyamev Jayate

A Great Initiative By Aamir Khan and Satyamev Jayate Team - a Step Towards Reformation, Development and totally Eye-Opening Attempt. Hats Off to the entire Team of Satyamev Jayate - A Very Innovative, Touching programme.  

The 1st episode on Female Foeticide - Really shocking to learn the statics and that educated people have a major share in this shameful disgusting act. A Grand Salute to those ladies who suffered, took great pains, broke their relations with husband, but did give birth to girl child and prioritize the up-bringing of girl child. 

The Society needs Mother, needs Grandmother, needs Sister, needs Girlfriend, needs Wife but they do not need A GIRL CHILD!!! Unanswerable is that Mother-in-law who herself is a female, does not need a  grand daughter. WHY NO TO A GIRL CHILD??? Just because she has to get married and go to other's house, because she will not repay her parents. In today's days, many sons keep their parents in Old-Age Home and yet their are few Boy Child Lovers. Does such a son deserve to be their parents heir?? 

Most of the people are in deep sleep, majority have restricted themselves with their routines and hardly have time to do anything for the nation, for the Society today. Most of the people are living with masks on their faces, with their hearts dead and busy with their show-offs and are very much self-centered & self-concentric. As long as something is not actually going to effect someone, no one is ready to do anything and to add to it is the "Chalta Hai" attitude of today's days. 

The show has touched the hearts of people. Their are responses of appreciations, supports from all over for this show but how long are the people going to actually be active, how many times is an individual going to really take an initiative to stop a wrong doing of others who are strangers but are fellow countrymen? People need to wake up and come forward to stop the wrong happenings in the Society. People need to come out on streets for revolution - A mass movement is essential. Doing something to stop such deeds by each individual can only bring a major change in the society, as is said always बुंद बूँदसे सागर बने . But these efforts need to be continual. It is a tradition our Nation rises up very easily, gets impressed and motivated very fast but very conveniently forgets the issue, the pain, the wounds and gets back to their monotonous routine and finally we end up with blames on Government & Systems. Kindly do not interpret me for backing the Government. The need of the hour is an another fight for Independence - Freedom from our mis-beliefs, our wrong doings. It has to be a mass movement - A movement by citizens of India. People should bring in the change, not the Government.  Let us come together and force the Government to take action, to make laws and to ask courts to clear the cases. Jagoo India Jagoo!!!

Let We Re-Build A New India !!!

Jai Hind!! Satyamev Jayate!!!

Life's "Living" Moments

How many "living" moments did you experience today, in the last one-week or one month? Can't remember! True because most of us are so busy trying to live life that what we are actually doing is not living but trying to catch up. Because we are conditioned to believe that if we catch up now, we can live later. Alas, not to be.

Step back, sit down , take a deep breath. The world is still going on as usual. Nothing changed because you took a breather. When did you last take time to smell a flower, walk barefoot on dewy grass, enjoy a baby's gurgle or just plain enjoyed the aroma and flavour of your coffee? I hear you saying, "Gee, I don't remember".

Life is fast paced and never ending. It's a list of to do things, which begins and never end. There is no recipe for being a perfect daughter or son or parent or partner. These roles have evolved over ages and still will evolve. What the world needs is more love, more care, more safety and above all, more loving people around .God may be busy at times but He has so thoughtfully made You and Me to be his messengers of love, peace and care.

So whenever you can smile at someone who least expects it. Give your kid an unexpected hug, hold your partner's hand, call your parents, send someone a nice message. Go ahead, do this and many such small gestures. You can be rest assured that you have planted a smile on someone's soul.

Go, start counting your tender moments. Trust me, soon you will have many!

‘Forgiveness And Positive Living ‘


Extracts from – ‘Forgiveness And Positive Living ‘
                                                                                                By Ton Pascal

"Forgiveness is the key that can unshackle us from a past that will not rest in the grave of things over and done with. As long as our minds are captive to the memory of having been wronged, they are not free to wish for reconciliation with the one who wronged us." Lewis B. Smedes.

Forgiveness is a positive energy that spreads much quicker than I thought. Each time we witness an act of forgiveness, we marvel at its power to heal, to break a seemingly unending cycle of pain.

Forgiveness is something we don't fully understand, or we associate forgiveness with weakness. Some view forgiveness, as an almost saintly quality that blesses only the very special and most certainly cannot be learned. In fact, the opposite is true. Forgiveness is a sign of strength.

Forgiving doesn't change what has passed, neither does it justify or make it all right. It allows you to focus on your life from a pain free emotional state. The past no longer makes you cringe, cry or swear.
Forgiveness simply helps you to let go of that negative baggage and makes a place for all the positive things you wish to have. I know a lot of people who after a lover's break up or a friend's betrayal have vowed, "I will never let anyone hurt me like that again."

It is quite justifiable, it is your survival instinct, a protective shield taking over, but be careful that this shield will also prevent you from connecting with new people and eventually making new friends.
This is negative living, and most people are not even aware of it. Forgiveness is letting go of that negative emotional baggage and starting on a new path stronger than before. It is very difficult, I know, to accept the fact that someone you loved and trusted who has betrayed and stabbed you in the back, deserves your forgiveness.

When I lost a best friend of 25 years to what I thought was petty gossip, I was devastated and questioned the sincerity of her friendship all those years. After forgiving her I can now look back and laugh at the good moments we had together. Sincerity is no longer a question, my love for her is the same, but I no longer need to see, speak or interact with her. Our roads just took different directions, that's all.

Make an assessment of the people in your life, and the ones who are gone. What are your feelings about them? Is there someone you feel "I dislike (or hate) that SOB" either for personal reasons or because of malicious gossip? Or is there someone you distanced from and in your book is unforgivable?

You are carrying some heavy negative emotional baggage. Get rid of it AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if you want the good energy of positive living to reach you.

An important, well-documented and proven factor is that your anger, hurt and pain not only will affect the way you communicate with others, but eventually will exclude you from social contact. Your self worth is constantly being questioned and if you don't take action, it will eventually break down.

"Forgiveness allows one to overcome a situation that would otherwise be a major source of stress, both mentally and neurobiological. Forgiveness is thought to dramatically change the individual's biological

"Forgiveness allows one to overcome a situation that would otherwise be a major source of stress, both mentally and neurobiological. Forgiveness is thought to dramatically change the individual's biological homeostatic equilibrium. He will assess the neurobiological response associated with forgiveness and unforgiving-ness." Study of the Brain Functional Correlates of Forgiveness in Humans -Pietro Pietrini, M.D., Ph.D., Pisa - Italy.

Forgiveness benefits both, but you the most, because you left the negative baggage behind. You are now ready to receive the positive force, energy, love, wealth and success the universe has in store for you. The other person doesn't even need to know, it is irrelevant. Neither do you have to bring that person into your life or closer circle any more.

What matters is your thoughts and therefore your actions. If it is clean, clear, and positive, so will your life, your friends, and your future. "Forgiveness is both a decision and a real change in emotional experience. That change in emotion is related to better mental and physical health." Everett L. Worthington, Jr., Ph.D. Executive Director, A Campaign For Forgiveness Research.

From a decade-old grudge against the third-grade bully to deep-seated rage against a cheating spouse, millions of Americans harbor long-term grievances. Dr. Carl Thoresen, a professor at Stanford University, and his colleague, Dr. Fred Luskin, are exploring whether the unresolved anger that blights many people's lives can be alleviated with the help of an age-old concept: forgiveness.

Together, the pair launched a comprehensive research project: The Stanford Forgiveness Study. Thoresen and Luskin hope the impact of their work will be preventative as well as therapeutic. "It's our hope that family and school violence, including shootings, road rage, gang violence and workplace conflict will be diminished - if not avoided - if more people understand the role that forgiveness can play in interpersonal relations," says Thoresen.

"It takes courage and commitment to act in a more forgiving fashion. It's not at all a sign of weakness but a mark of strength." Dr. Carl Thoresen is a professor of Education, Psychology and Psychiatry at Stanford University. Dr. Fred Luskin is a research associate at the Stanford Center for Research in Disease Prevention.

Have a great journey.
