STORY


TODAY'S STORY

Struggles of our life

Once upon a time, a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed. Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, eggs in the second pot and ground coffee beans in the third pot. He then let them sit and boil, without saying a word to his daughter. The daughter moaned and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing. After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. He then ladled the coffee out and placed it in a cup. Turning to her, he asked. “Daughter, what do you see?” “Potatoes, eggs and coffee,” she hastily replied. “Look closer”, he said, “and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.

Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee. Its rich aroma brought a smile to her face.

“Father, what does this mean?” she asked.

He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and coffee beans had

each faced the same adversity-the boiling water. However, each one

reacted differently. The potato went in strong, hard and unrelenting,

but in boiling water, it became soft and weak. The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid interior until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard. However, the ground coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new.

“Which one are you?” he asked his daughter. “When adversity knocks

on your door, how do you respond? Are you a potato, an egg, or a

coffee bean?”

Moral: In life, things happen around us, things happen to us, but the only thing that truly matters is how you choose to react to it and what you make out of it. Life is all about leaning, adopting and converting all the struggles that we experience into something positive.

WORLD BOOK AND COPYRIGHT DAY 23 APRIL

 WORLD BOOK AND COPYRIGHT DAY 23 APRIL


Why do we celebrate this day?

what is world book and copyright day?

 world book and copyright day is a celebration to promote the enjoyment of books and reading. Each year, on 23 April, celebrations take place all over the world to recognize the scope of books - a link between the past and the future, a bridge between generations and across cultures. On this occasion, UNESCO and the international organizations representing the three major sectors of the book industry - publishers, booksellers and libraries, select the World Book Capital for a year to maintain, through its own initiatives, the impetus of the Day’s celebrations. 

23 April is a symbolic date in world literature. It is the date on which several prominent authors, William Shakespeare, Miguel de Cervantes and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega all died. This date was a natural choice for UNESCO's General Conference, held in Paris in 1995, to pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors on this date, encouraging everyone to access books.

By championing books and copyright, UNESCO stands up for creativity, diversity and equal access to knowledge, with the work across the board – from the Creative Cities of Literature network to promoting literacy and mobile learning and advancing Open Access to scientific knowledge and educational resources. With the active involvement of all stakeholders: authors, publishers, teachers, librarians, public and private institutions, humanitarian NGOs and the mass media, and all those who feel motivated to work together in this world celebration of books and authors, World Book and Copyright Day has become a platform to rally together millions of people all around the world.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

 THOUGHT OF THE DAY

"LIFE HAS NO REMOTE CONTROL, GET UP AND CHANGE IT BY YOURSELF"

राष्ट्रिय बालिका दिवस 24 जनवरी

                                                     PICTURE COURTESY: PRABHAT KHABAR

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस क्यों मनाया जाता है? राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस मनाने का उद्देश्य भारत की लड़कियों को सहायता और अवसर प्रदान करना है। इसका उद्देश्य बालिकाओं के अधिकारों के बारे में जागरूकता को बढ़ावा देना और बालिका शिक्षा के महत्व और उनके स्वास्थ्य और पोषण के बारे में जागरूकता को बढ़ाना है। कन्या भ्रूण हत्या और लैंगिक असमानता से लेकर यौन शोषण तक सभी मुद्दों पर बालिकाओं और लोगों को जागरूक करना है। लड़कियों को असमानताओं, बालिका अधिकार, शिक्षा, स्वास्थ्य और लैंगिक भेदभाव का आज भी सामना करना पड़ता है, ऐसे में बेटियों को जागरूक करने के लिए हर साल राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस मनाया जाता है। ताकि वह अपने अधिकारों को जाने और उनका सदुपयोग करे।

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस का इतिहास भारत में पहली बार राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस 24 जनवरी 2008 में मनाया गया था। राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस की शुरुआत 2008 में महिला एवं बाल विकास मंत्रालय द्वारा की गई थी। हर साल 24 जनवरी को एक खास वजह से बालिका दिवस मनाया जाता है। 24 जनवरी 1966 में भारत की पहली महिला प्रधानमंत्री के रूप में इंदिरा गांधी ने शपथ ली थी। इसलिए भारतीय राष्ट्रीय कांग्रेस पार्टी ने 24 जनवरी को भारतीय इतिहास,महिला सशक्तिकरण और लैंगिक समानता को बढ़ावा देने के लिए राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस के रूप में चुना।

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस मनाने का उद्देश्य समाज में लड़कियों के साथ लैंगिक भेदभाव के बारे में लोगों को जागरूक करना और लड़कियों के प्रति दृष्टिकोण में बदलाव लाना है। भारत सरकार ने बालिकाओं की स्थिति में सुधार और भेदभाव को खत्म करने के लिए कई अभियान चलाए हैं। जैसे सेव द गर्ल चाइल्ड, बेटी बचाओ बेटी पढ़ाओ, लड़कियों के लिए मुफ्त या रियायती शिक्षा, कॉलेजों और विश्वविद्यालयों में महिलाओं के लिए आरक्षण शुरू आदि।

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस का महत्व भारत में हर साल 24 जनवरी को राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है। आज देश की बेटियां हर क्षेत्र में अपना परचम लहरा रही हैं। पहले जहां बेटियों के पैदा होने पर भी उन्हें बाल विवाह जैसे कू प्रथा में झोंक दिया जाता था, वहीं आज बेटी होने पर लोग गर्व करते हैं। देश की आजादी के बाद से भारत सरकार ने बेटियों और बेटों में भेदभाव को खत्म करने के लिए कई योजनाएं चलाई। बेटियों को देश में पहले पायदान पर लाने के लिए कई कानून लागू किए गए। मुख्य रूप से राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस मनाने का उद्देश्य बालिकाओं के प्रति लोगों को जागरूक करना है।केंद्र सरकार समेत राज्य सरकारें भी अपने अपने राज्यों में बेटियों के प्रति लोगों में जागरूकता बढ़ाने के लिए कई कदम उठाते हैं। भारत में राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस 24 जनवरी और 11 अक्टूबर को अंतर्राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है।

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस कब है? भारत में हर साल 24 जनवरी को बालिका दिवस मनाया जाता है। इसकी शुरुआत 2008 में की गई थी। महिला एवं बाल विकास मंत्रालय ने 24 जनवरी 2008 में पहली बार राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस मनाया था।

24 जनवरी को ही बालिका दिवस क्यों है? इंदिरा गांधी ने 24 जनवरी 1966 में भारत की पहली महिला प्रधानमंत्री के रूप में शपथ ली थी, इसलिए भारतीय राष्ट्रीय कांग्रेस पार्टी ने वर्ष 2008 में 24 जनवरी को राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस के रूप में मनाने का फैसला किया। ताकि महिला सशक्तिकरण को बढ़ावा दिया जा सके।

बालिका दिवस मनाने का उद्देश्य? इस दिन को मनाने का उद्देश्य देश की बालिकाओं को उनके अधिकारों के प्रति जागरूक करना है। बेटियों के साथ-साथ समाज को भी इस लैंगिग भेदभाव के बारे में जागरूक करना है। पूरे भारत में इस दिन जागरूकता कार्यक्रम आयोजित किए जाते हैं।

राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस 2022 थीम हर साल राष्ट्रीय बालिका दिवस की थीम अलग होती है। बालिका दिवस 2021 की थीम 'डिजिटल जनरेशन, अवर जेनरेशन' थी। वर्ष 2020 में बालिका दिवस की थीम 'मेरी आवाज, हमारा साझा भविष्य' थी। इस वर्ष बालिका दिवस 2022 की थीम अभी तक घोषित नहीं की गई है।

PERSON OF THE WEEK : SWAMI VIVEKANAND

 स्वामी विवेकानंद

स्वामी विवेकानंद (12 जनवरी 1863 - 4 जुलाई 1902), नरेंद्रनाथ दत्ता, एक भारतीय हिंदू भिक्षु थे। वह 19वीं सदी के भारतीय रहस्यवादी रामकृष्ण के प्रमुख शिष्य थे। वे वेदांत और योग के भारतीय दर्शन को पश्चिमी दुनिया में पेश करने में एक प्रमुख व्यक्ति थे, और उन्हें 19 वीं शताब्दी के अंत में हिंदू धर्म को एक प्रमुख विश्व धर्म की स्थिति में लाने के लिए अंतर-जागरूकता बढ़ाने का श्रेय दिया जाता है।
कलकत्ता के एक कुलीन बंगाली कायस्थ परिवार में जन्मे विवेकानंद का झुकाव आध्यात्मिकता की ओर था। वह अपने गुरु, रामकृष्ण से प्रभावित थे, जिनसे उन्होंने सीखा कि सभी जीवित प्राणी दैवीय स्व के अवतार थे; इसलिए, मानव जाति की सेवा करके भगवान की सेवा की जा सकती है। रामकृष्ण की मृत्यु के बाद, विवेकानंद ने बड़े पैमाने पर भारतीय उपमहाद्वीप का दौरा किया और ब्रिटिश भारत में प्रचलित का प्रत्यक्ष ज्ञान प्राप्त किया।

Swami Vivekananda was born on 12 January, 1863, Kolkata (earlier Calcutta). He was a spiritual leader and social reformer. His lectures, writings, letters, poems, ideas motivated not only the youth of India but also the whole world. He is the founder of Ramakrishna Mission and Belur Math in Calcutta, which are still working towards helping the needy. He was a man of wisdom and a very simple human being.Vivekananda childhood name was Narendranath Dutta, belonged to an affluent Bengali family in Calcutta. He was one of the eight children of Vishwanath Dutta and Bhuvneshwari Devi. On the occasion of Makar Sankranti, he was born on 12 January, 1863. His father was an attorney and an influential personality in society. Vivekananda's mother was a woman who has faith in God and has a great impact on his son.

At the age of eight in 1871, Vivekananda was enrolled at Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar's Institution and later at the Presidency College in Calcutta. He was exposed to Western philosophy, Christianity, and science. He had an interest in music both instrumental as well as vocal. He was active in sports, gymnastics, wrestling, and bodybuilding. He was also fond of reading and till the time he had completed his graduation from the college he had acquired a vast knowledge of various subjects. Do you know on the one hand he read Hindu scriptures like Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads and on the other hand western philosophies and spirituality by David Hume, Herbert Spencer etc? 

In 1885, Ramakrishna developed throat cancer and was transferred to Calcutta and then later to a garden house in Cossipore. Vivekananda and other disciples of Ramakrishna took care of him. On 16 August, 1886, Shri Ramakrishna gave up his mortal body. Narendra was taught that the service to men was the most effective worship of God. After the demise of Ramakrishna, fifteen of his disciples including Narendranath began to live together at Baranagar in North Calcutta, which was named Ramakrishna Math. In 1887, all the disciples took vows of monkhood and Narendranath emerged as Vivekananda that is "the bliss of discerning wisdom." All of them performed yoga and meditation. Further, Vivekananda left the math and decided to tour the whole of India on foot which came to be known as 'Parivrajak'. He saw several social, cultural, and religious aspects of the people and also saw what common people faced in their daily life, their sufferings, etc.

When he came to know about the World Parliament that was organised in Chicago, America. He was keen to attend the meeting, to represent India and his Guru's philosophies. After various troubles, he attended the Religious meeting. On 11 September, 1893, he came upon the stage and stunned everyone while saying "My brothers and sisters of America". For this, he received a standing ovation from the audience. He described the principles of Vedanta, their spiritual significance, etc.
He stayed around two and a half years in America itself and founded the Vedanta Society of New York. He also travelled to the United Kingdom to preach the philosophies, spiritualism, and principles of Vedanta.

Around 1897, he returned to India and reached Calcutta where he founded Ramakrishna Mission on 1 May, 1897 at Belur Math. The goals of the mission were based on Karma Yoga and its main objective was to serve the poor and suffering or disturbed population of the country. Several social services are also performed under this mission like establishing schools, colleges, and hospitals. Teachings of Vedanta were also provided through conferences, seminars, and workshops, rehabilitation work across the country. Let us tell you that Vivekananda's teachings were mostly based on Ramakrishna's spiritual teachings of Divine manifestations and his personal internalisation of the Advaita Vedanta Philosophy. According to him, the ultimate goal of life is to achieve the freedom of the soul and that encompasses the entirety of one's religion.

He predicted that he will not live till the age of 40. Therefore, on 4 July, 1902, he died while doing meditation. He is said to have attained 'Mahasamadhi' and was cremated on the Banks of the river Ganga.

“Take up one idea, make that one idea your life, think of it, dream of it, let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.” Swami Vivekananda
