Mozilla Firefox : Proxy server changes the langauage

Problem: I faced this issue, that if I am using a proxy server in some other country. Then for the websites which chose the language based on the country of the client, making the request. It will open the page as per the location of proxy server.

In my case, I was using a Japanese proxy server, so typing Google.com will take me to Google.co.jp and open the search results in Japanese.

Solution: Change the language preference in "Tools > Options> Content". After this webpage was presented in desired language.

Speech on Current Education System

"LORD MACAULAY'S ADDRESS TO THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT 2 FEBRUARY, 1835"

"I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I propose that we replace the old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self esteem, their native culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation."

Benefit of Being an Indian - from Bharat

One of the benefit of being an Indian is that there is so much spiritual knowledge around us that whether we accept it or not. But that knowledge is hardwired into our brain from childhood. And at some point of our life, we get the true meaning of that knowledge and find it very beneficial.

The Way to a Man's Heart is through his Stomach

I was just thinking.. assuming this statement to be true and in current scenario, if girl doesn't like to cook, what could happen?
1. Boys mother would be cooking the food. In that case, Mother will retain the special place in Man's heart and girl will be keep on thinking why the Man is Mama's boy.
2. Maid cooks the food. In this case, maid might find special place in Man's heart and later what could happen is known to everyone ;-).
3. Girl cooks the food. But as she doesn't like to cook the food, Man would not find the feeling in the food. So he would always be craving for that special food or might kept comparing it with someone else's like his monther/some aunt/somebody else's wife.

So learning out of this for boys is.. yaar don't be so fooddy.. try to change your DNA. Probably with this trial, we may be successful in some 400-500 years to update our DNA.

Lord Ramachandra about building the bridge

Lord Ramachandra about building the bridge Building The Bridge - His Causeless mercy on us.

Lord Ramachandra was building the bridge to reach Lanka and kill Ravana. The monkeys were carrying huge stone to build this bridge. The strongest of all monkeys was Hanuman Ji and He was carrying the biggest boulders and throwing them in the sea to make the bridge.

There was a small spider who was also assisting Lord Rama to build the bridge by pushing very small sand particles. When Haumana Ji saw the spider struggling to push small sand particles, he started laughing and asked spider -

Hanuman Ji - "What is the use of your effort?"
Lord Ramachandra called Hanuman Ji over and asked him
Lord Ramachandra - "Tell me why I am building that Bridge?"
Hanuman Ji - "Because you want to cross the ocean".
Lord Ramachandra - "This is not true. I don't have to cross the ocean. Just a few minutes ago i dried the ocean simple by getting angry. That's not the reason I could be there in one moment if I wanted. Simply by writing my name the stones are floating in the ocean."
Lord Ramachandra - "How much more potent is it if I am there?"
Hanuman Ji - "Because you want to kill Ravana."
Lord Ramachandra - "If i want to kill Ravana all I have to do is leave his heart and he will die. Only because of my presence in his heart he is living."
Hanuman Ji - "Then why you are building this bridge?"
Lord Ramachandra - "To engage all of you in the devotional service and thus get purified. Like you the spider is also struggling and trying his best to engage in devotional service."

Amazing isn't it.

What are learning from these post for Indian students?

Jain Muni Sri Tarunsagar Maharaj

क्रान्तिकारी संत मुनि श्री तरुणसागर

1. माँ-बाप होने के नाते अपने बच्चों को खूब पढाना-लिखाना और पढा लिखा कर खूब लायक बनाना । मगर इतना लायक भी मत बना देना कि वह कल तुम्हें ही 'नालायक' समझने लगे । अगर तुमने आज यह भूल की तो कल बुढापे में तुम्हें बहुत रोना पछताना पडेगा । यह बात मैं इसलिये कह रहा हूँ क्योंकि कुछ लोग जिंदगी में यह भूल कर चुके है और वे आज रो रहे है । अब पछताने से क्या होगा जब चिड़िया चुग गई खेत ।

2. बच्चों के झगडे में बडों को और सास बहू के झगडों में बाप बेटे को कभी नहीं पडना चाहिये । संभव है कि दिन में सास बहू में कुछ कहा सुनी हो तो स्वाभाविक है कि वे इसकी शिकायत रात घर लौटे अपने पति से करेगी । पतियों को उनकी शिकायत गौर से सुननी चाहिये, सहानुभूति भी दिखानी चाहिये । मगर जब सोकर उठे तो आगे पाठ-पीछे सपाट की नीति ही अपनानी चाहिये, तभी घर में एकता कायम रह सकती है ।

3. लक्ष्मी पुण्याई से मिलती है । मेहनत से मिलती हो तो मजदूरों के पास क्यों नहीं ? बुद्धि से मिलती हो तो पंडितों के पास क्यों नहीं ? जिंदगी में अच्छी संतान, सम्पत्ति और सफलता पुण्य से मिलती है । अगर आप चाहते है कि आपका इहलोक और परलोक सुखमय रहे तो पूरे दिन में कम से कम दो पुण्य जरूर करिये क्योकिं जिंदगी में सुख, सम्पत्ति और सफलता पुण्याई से मिलती है ।

4. संत को गाय जैसा होना चाहिये, हाथी जैसा नहीं । गाय घास खाती है, पर दूध, दही, छाछ , मक्खन और घी देती है । गाय का गोबर भी काम आता है । हाथी गन्ना, गुड और माल खाता है तो भी समाज को कुछ नहीं देता । संत मुनि को घास अर्थात् हल्का और सात्त्विक भोजन करना चाहिये । संत मुनि वे है जो समाज से अंजुलि भर लेते है और दरिया भर लौटाते है ।

5. संसार में अड़चन और परेशानी न आएं, यह कैसे हो सकता है ? सप्ताह में एक दिन रविवार का भी तो आयेगा ना । प्रकृति का नियम ही ऐसा है कि जिंदगी में जितना सुख-दुःख मिलना है, वह मिलता ही है । क्यों नहीं मिलेगा ? टेण्डर में जो भरोगे वही तो खुलेगा । मीठे के साथ नमकीन जरूरी है । सुख के साथ दुःख का होना भी जरूरी है । दुःख बडे काम की चीज है । जिंदगी में अगर दुःख न हो तो भगवान को कोई भी याद ही न करे ।

6. प्रश्न पूछा है – स्वर्ग मेरी मुट्ठी में हो- इसके लिये मैं क्या करूं ? कुछ मत करो । बस इतना ही करो कि दिमाग को ठंडा रखो, जेब को गरम रखो, आंखों में शरम रखो, जुबान को नरम रखो और दिल में रहम रखो । अगर तुम ऐसा कर सके तो फिर तुम्हें किसी स्वर्ग तक जाने की जरुरत नहीं है, स्वर्ग खुद तुम तक चलकर आयेगा । विडंबना तो यही है कि हम स्वर्ग तो चाहते हैं मगर स्वर्गीय होना नही चाहते ।

7. भले ही लड झगड लेना, पिट जाना, पीट देना मगर बोल चाल बंद मत करना । क्योंकि बोल चाल बंद होते ही सुलह के सारे दरवाजे बंद हो जाते है । गुस्सा बुरा नहीं है । गुस्से के बाद आदमी जो वैर जो पाल लेता है, वह बुरा है । गुस्सा तो बच्चे भी करते है, मगर बच्चे वैर नहीं पालते । वे इधर लडते झगडते है और उधर अगले ही क्षण फिर एक हो जाते है । कितना अच्छा रहे कि हर कोई बच्चा ही रहे ।

8. दुनियां में रहते हुये दो चीजों को कभी नहीं भूलना चाहिये । एक – परमात्मा, दूसरी – अपनी मौत । दो बातों को हमेशा भूल जाना चाहिये । एक – तुमने किसी का भला किया तो उसे तुरन्त भूल जाओ । दूसरी – किसी ने तुम्हारे साथ कभी कुछ बुरा किया तो उसे तुरन्त भूल जाओ । दुनियां में ये दो बातें ही याद रखने और भूल जाने जैसी है ।

9. तुम अपनी उस बेटी, बहू या बेटे को जो धर्म और अध्यात्म के प्रति उदासीन है, जो संत और सत्संग से दूर भागता है, सिर्फ एक बार मेरी प्रवचन सभा में ले आओ । बस माँ-बाप होने के नाते एक बार लाने का काम तुम्हारा है और रोज बुलाने का काम मुनि तरुणसागर का है । एक बार भी इसलिये कह रहा हूँ कि मुझे तुम्हारे घर का पता नहीं मालूम । यह मेरा आभिमान नहीं , आत्म-विश्वास है, जिसे आप आजमा सकते है |

10. डाक्टर और गुरु के सामने झूंठ मत बोलिये क्योंकिं यह झूंठ बहुत महंगा पड सकता है । गुरु के सामने झूंठ बोलने से पाप का प्रायश्चित नही होगा, डाक्टर के सामने झूंठ बोलने से रोग का निदान नहीं होगा । डाक्टर और गुरु के सामने एकदम सरल और तरल बनकर पेश हो । आप कितने ही होशियार क्यों न हो तो भी डाक्टर और गुरु के सामने अपनी होशियारी मत दिखाइये, क्योंकिं यहां होशियारी बिल्कुल काम नहीं आती ।

Ahimsa in Jainism

Ahimsa in Jainism



Ahiṃsā (Sanskrit : अहिंसा, Prakrit : अहिंसा) means “non-violence”, “non-injury” or absence of desire to harm any life forms. Ahiṃsā is the fundamental principle of Jainism forming the cornerstone of its ethics and doctrine. Vegetarianism and other non-violent practices and rituals of Jains flow from the principle of Ahiṃsā. According to Adian Rankin, the concept of Ahiṃsā is so much intertwined with Jainism that it conjures up images of ascetics who cover their mouths and sweep the ground before them with small brushes to avoid injuring the most minuscule forms of life and Jain-owned animal sanctuaries where even the sickest, most deformed birds and beasts are protected and cherished. These overt manifestations of an ancient faith challenge the comfortable - and near-universal - assumption of human precedence over other creatures.[1]

The Jain concept of Ahiṃsā is quite different from the concept of non-violence found in other philosophies. In other religious traditions, violence is usually associated with causing harm to others. On the other hand, in Jainism, violence refers primarily to injuring one's own self – behaviour which inhibits the souls own ability to attain mokṣa or liberation.[2] At the same time it also means violence to others because it is this tendency to harm others that ultimately harms ones own soul. Furthermore, the Jains have extended the concept of Ahiṃsā not only to humans but to all animals, plants, micro-organisms and all beings having life or life potential. All life is sacred and everyone has a right to live fearlessly to its maximum potential. The living beings do not have any fear from those who have taken the vow of Ahiṃsā. According to Jainism, protection of life, also known as abhayadānam, is the supreme charity that a person can make[3].

Ahiṃsā does not merely indicate absence of physical violence, but also indicates absence of desire to indulge in any sort of violence.[4] This Jain ideal of Ahiṃsā profoundly influenced Mahatma Gandhi, through his friendship with the Jain scholar Shrimad Rajchandra that it formed a basis of his satyagraha (truth struggle) against colonial rule and caused him to rethink many aspects of contemporary Hindu practices.[1] While Jainism is not a proselytizing religion and as such has no organised system of advocating its doctrine, Jains have been forefront in strongly advocating vegetarianism and non-violence through ages.[5] Ahiṃsā being central to the Jain philosophy, Jain Ācāryas have produced, through ages, quite elaborate and detailed doctrinal materials concerning its various aspects.

Don't copy if you can't paste!

A popular motivational speaker was entertaining his audience. Said he:
"The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who wasn't my
wife!"

The audience was in silence and shock.
The speaker added: "And that woman was my mother!"
Laughter and applause.

A week later, a top manager trained by the motivational speaker tried to
crack this very effective joke at home. He was a bit foggy after a drink.

He said loudly, "The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of a
woman who was not my wife!"
The wife went wan with shock and rage.
Standing there for 20 seconds trying to recall the second half of the
joke, the manager finally blurted out "... and I can't remember who she
was!"

Moral of the story:
Don't copy if you can't paste!

Current Marriage Scenario in India

http://www.hinduonnet.com/folio/fo9909/99090360.htm

Read this nice article today :)

Dr. Thara says, "marriage is often not the happily-ever-after phenomena as portrayed in fairy tales or films, nor is it a permanent state of romance. It is a life-long process of cementing a relationship in the face of several adversities and an ongoing process of physical and emotional accommodation, sharing and loving. Young people should neither idealise it too much nor have their knives sharpened all the time.

"There is no perfect marriage and there never will be one - neither is it necessary to be so. All the fun will be lost if marriage is always sedate and predictable."

Impact of Education | Way we are putting our efforts

एक दिन एक लड़का कॉलेज से घर जा रहा था| उसने देखा के एक बैल खडा है जिसके गले में घंटी बंधी है| वो लड़की उस बैल के पास जा कर बोला कि तुम्हारे गले में यह घंटी क्यों बंधी है| बैल ने कहा, ताकि मेरे मालिक को पता रहे कि में चल रहा हूँ| बैल ने कहा पर घंटी तो तुम खड़े हो कर ही गर्दन हिला कर बजा सकते हो, फिर मालिक को कैसे पता चलेगा| बैल ने कहा में ऐसा नहीं करूंगा| लड़के ने कहा पर क्यों| बैल ने कहाँ क्योंकि में कभी कॉलेज नहीं गया ना|

शायद कॉलेज जा कर हम यही सीख रहे है|

These days, we are looking for solutions like how to make that bell so intelligent, that OX would not be able to fool. But we are not putting effort in direction, that why OX is behaving this way.
