Low but a wonderful celebration!

Allhamdulillah, been a wonderful time with this blessed festival of Id-ul-azha (Bakrid) celebrated on 9^th of December 2008 at home. It was a low celebration in my native due to different reasons with a strong advice in the religious ceremony. As usual, some unwanted political posters were seen in the native with greeting messages of Id in small with larger photos of the political guys and also a unwanted political hype of may be the upcoming leader on the evening of bakrid.

The schedules of salaat at Eidgah was spoiled with never expected drizzling just two hours before the salaat time. For the first time in my life, I never met a single friend of mine to exchange the Id greetings who just resides very near to my home……all was just a phone greetings and wishes for prayers!

I was very high with my relatives with much of them uttering their prayers and wishes that by next year we should go for Haj. InshaAllah, let their wishes come true…aameen! Lets hope I write my next Bakrid message from the holy land – Mecca…Aameen!

Next year all the holidays are on Friday and Monday - Happy!!!

No time to explain!!

Been a long time to make my presence in my blog world! Migration to city keeps the life very fast and made me little time for my blog. Where ever may be, surely bloggers will keep time for their blog, the same thing, I too do. The difficulty is that, my travelling of 40-50 hours a month in weekly slot makes me very week to sit at my PC in my home, obviously my office keeps me very busy with no time for my pleasure thought write-ups!

Gotten the internet for the very purpose of blogging, due to fact that both in my home and after my office hour with my scheduled physical fitness program, I feel better to disconnect the net in my dwelling or discontinue my fitness program for three months to escape this winter!

More over, functions in my friends and relatives and my own family kept me out of reach of my desk…….for temporary reasons, I had scarified my blogging interest to keep time for my family and friends. Got a lot of comments and mails with fellow bloggers in my other blogs for updates, hope to make it and make a final try with PPP. Cheers!!!

To reflect and... Act!

There is no difference between the rich and the poor country compared to the age, available recourses, the mighty military, the length and breadth of the country, etc. For example, Egypt which is more than 2000 years old and had the mightiest army in its time is still a developing country now, the same case with India which exists thousand of years. On the other hand, the countries which were inexpressive 150 years ago are developed nation now….Canada, Australia, New Zealand can be viewed as example.  

Without doubt, countries with limited territories and recourses are most successful then much larger country with recourses like India. Considering Japan, a country of limited territory with 80% mountainous region with inadequate for agriculture and cattle rising is the world's second largest economy. One may wonder how it has reached that position…….answer is simple, the country is like a gigantic floating factory which imports raw material from the world and exports finished goods.

One more country to consider as the best example is the Switzerland which does not plant cocoa but delivers the best chocolates to the world. This small country raises animals and plants the soil during four months a year and produces the best quality of dairy products. It is a small nation that transmits an image of security, order & labor, which made it the world's strong safe.

Executives from rich countries who communicate with their counterparts in poor countries show that there is no significant intellectual difference between them and between race and skin.

What is the difference then?

The big difference is the attitude of the people, framed along the years by the education & the culture. On analyzing the behavior of the people in rich & developed countries, a research firm has found that the great majority follow the following principles in their lives:

1. Ethics, as a basic principle.

2. Integrity.

3. Responsibility.

4. Respect to the laws & rules.

5. Respect to the rights of other citizens.

6. Work loving.

7. Strive for saving & investment.

8. Will of super action.

9. Punctuality.

In poor countries, only a minority follow these basic principles in their daily life. Nations are not poor because they lack in natural resources or because nature was cruel to them. Nations are poor because majority of its citizens lack attitude. As citizen of our country, we lack the will to comply with and teach these functional principles of rich & developed societies. If you love your country, let this message be practiced by you and pass onto the other majority of the people through any media you like to reflect a change and act!

Replace your empty mind with an open idea!

From the Visharamites point of understanding, I write this content to bring some kind of triggering to our next generations. Traditionally on one side, the elders of Visharam have done a marvelous job some 50 years ago, not only by generously seeding the money but worked out for setting-up the exemplary infrastructure inspiring the mind of youngsters to get benefitted from it to acquire the knowledge. To this date, still the elders are helping in one way or the other to make Visharamites, a professional in their chosen field.

The other side, the entire student, I can strictly speak……the youths of Visharam never realized the dream of elders who wanted to turn the leather export center to the center of CEO export from Visharam. They never dreamt of a dream job or a dream career from their basic schooling to their highest education and, ofcourse, some parents might have tried to shape their children’s career and the poor fellows would have taken a lot of time to understand it when he let go of the time itself.

This is much related to me and my batch and our seniors who have taken much of the time to understand the competitive world to settle down in their respective career and their happy life. The time we got settled, everybody is again putting their eyes to our beloved native which had nurtured us to what we are of today and have great plans to guide and bring other junior family members who are right now schooling or through plans to raise their kids with their vision feeling the heat of the past, what they had lost in their childhood epoch.

Thanks to the almighty who had blessed us through our elders to get all the basic education to be fulfilled within the boundaries and normally our other neighbour from Walajah to district Headquarter, Vellore, who are larger than the size and population of Visharam quench their thirst for education here and sees Visharam with dignity as the seat of learning. Apart from neighbours, students worldwide pour here in our other institute to complete their education.

So this is what the elders have done and what and we utilized our rich recourses……again, sneaking a look towards our native, everybody believes that the present generation youth are still struggling at the same place, where once we used to be. Onething to emphasize that there were nobody to practically aspire and guide as to set our goal and achieve in course of time and particularly “nor” the elders had the idea to plan their wards career. With no guidance and preparation, everybody wanted to touch the sky to get a seat in medicine, engineering, etc…..and miserably failing to get a seat in Arts and Science College other than our own.

Still, the youth of today are following the same line as we followed blindly some 10 years ago!. The formal education of school and the general motivation of the teachers are not enough to make a dream in this ready for action scenario; to make it more colourful….one should come out of their den to know the thoughts of others to plan a successful career for tomorrows survival. Afterall, everyone is here to help others in their spare time and particularly, the week ends. The student’s community should come forward to have a discussion with their seniors or other persons who are directly and indirectly keen to help them to nurture their dream career into reality. I don’t know the students community is aware of an informative blog focused to the needs of Visharamite student, it will be good to follow this blog.

"Let’s make the dream come true with the Visharam as the center for learning by excelling in our academics to fulfill the wishes of all who had aspired believing us!"

Need triggering for your improvement?

I'm wondering why people lag in their own mental and physical fitness, skill sets, knowledge, etc or unable to quit their irritating habits when all the recourses are available to them! The answer I believe is that these people lag because of their little exposure and contacts with the outside world which has abundant recourses to keep our worries off the mind. I mean to bring the attention towards something called self improvement, a tool for training of both the heart and mind of individuals and group to understand the needs to achieve their goal with fulfilled lives and live very happily.

It is okay, and every one will be agreeing with the idea to bring confidence to fulfill their wishes come true is through self improvement, but when the person himself or herself is lagging to identify his or her potential skill sets, how will they concentrate on their so called improvement or self improvement?

Normally people who were lagging in confidence used to go to some consultants for advice to work out on how to approach their desire or goals in their chosen fields…..this is good to get advice from expertise, but the point to understand is the approach and the appointment and the time taken by him or her to get guidance from consultants. Also, there are people who have the idea in heart to seek guidance from the expertise persons but, will never take initiative to make his intention.

I see one kind of practice that is becoming popular to address the need of people who are afraid to approach others or seek help either to quit their bad habit or make improvement in their mental and physical abilities to achieve their goal is through the use of modern technology particularly listening to subliminal tapes, subliminal cds and subliminal mp3's is the trend to be used in home itself then going anywhere for help.

I came across one site which emphasize on self improvement of individuals and groups with the subliminal tapes and cd’s. It thoroughly makes one to understand with the use of it, just listening to the tapes one will be relaxing with the music which is embedded with messages which is heard by only our mind. If listening to it repeatedly, our mind is reprogrammed again and again and we will be acting accordingly.

Whether anyone looking for weight loss, stress management or relief, increased self-esteem, or want to stop smoking, boost sexual power or enhance the self-image, then this self improvement subliminal tapes hold the answers. Do you have any questions to ask for further details, please feel free to contact us?

Celebrating with my family!

Allahamdulillah, the great day of Id-ul-Fitr was celebrated in my native today the 1^st of shawal 1429 as per the Islamic date and the moon was sighted across the Tamil Nadu by yesterday evening 30^th September 2008. It was a very pious and celebrating the festive moment with the family members including the new members and extended relations exchanging warm greetings to one another.

So, I wish all the ummah a happy EID MUBARAK and pray to the almighty Allah s/t to bless all on this great occasion.
