Vaastu Shastra - A Science or Fiction

According to Vaastushastra ,you can keep your head in East or South direction while sleeping. East direction is suggested as Hindus worship Lord Soorya (Sun) and there is tradition of not showing your feet to someone reverend and the reason behind South direction is Electromagnetic Field.

कभी दर्या के औंधे में बैठे लहरों के हित्कोले निहारते ज़मीं और आसमान के फासले तय करते ख्वाबों में गुम हो जाऊं  !! कभी मंजिल के पास जाते कभी यूँही बुदबुदाते गुनगुनाते मैं और मेरी परछाई हमेशा साथ रहते !! महफिलें ... फासलों दूर बैठे हैं ना मैं उनको नज़र आऊं, ना मैं उन्हें देख पाऊं !! यह रंगीनियत आई तो है, पर वजह मैं नहि। मैं अकेला ही भला हूँ खुद्में कितना खुश सा हूँ !! कोई अनकही याद आती है कोई शाम मुझको बुलाती है खफा क्यूँ हूँ यह नहीं जानता मुझे इश्क है खुदसे बस इसी लम्हे में मुझे रहने दो। मैं शायद ऐसा ही हूँ या मुझे बनना ही था ऐसा ना जानने की आबरू है ना जुस्तजू किसी की है कहीं दूर हूँ, कहाँ हूँ, क्यूँ हूँ कब तक हूँ, अब इसकी परवाह नहीं बस हूँ। जिंदा हूँ। खुश हूँ। 

Challenges of India’s Development Story

Religion is what serves humanity

Religions in India For many religions is confined as being Hindu, Muslim, Catholic, Buddhism or Jainism etc. But definition of religion implies it is a belief which aids in achieving some common goals. You can be religious for anything viz towards cricket, football, your favorite rock band. Why not, for Iron Maiden fans all over the world fancy themselves as fans, not as Hindu fans or Catholic fans or any other caste fans. They have a common goal, to cheer their band so that they get some great music to hear. This process unites people all over the world, special thanks to the rock shows held globally. Nobody cares about each other’s religion, coz Music becomes a religion to then and that unites people. Ultimate aim of creating religion was simple, TO SERVE HUMANITY.

Cuisines of India

Indian Cuisine Food, one of the many 4 letter words that brings a lot of ideas,experiences and desires in one's mind. As diverse is the heritage,culture lifestyle,belief and language of India, as diverse is the cuisine in its various parts. Like for different occasions one dresses up differently here,the also cuisine differs for various occasions seasons and events.

Spirituality in terms of humanity

Spirituality in terms of humanity Before taking you to the world of spirituality, I would like to give a glimpse of one of my favorite quote on Spirituality by ―   Steve Maraboli. “One of the most spiritual things you can do is embrace your humanity. Connect with those around you today. Say "i love you", "i'm sorry", "i appreciate you", "i'm proud of you"...whatever you're feeling. Send random texts, write a cute note, embrace your truth and share it...cause a smile today for someone else...and give plenty of hugs.”   Exactly, it’s about connecting the dots to serve you and thus serving humanity. It appears as a white snow to my mind, on speaking SPIRITUALITY Common man fancies a divine power or something religious, rather cosmic on bringing the spiritual topic. Youngsters these days get repelled by spirituality. Who has time to seek inner self, gain nirvana, attain soulful bliss? Ro
