STORY

Parsees (A sect in India) used to take their Dead & lay them to rest @ huge 'Wind Towers' (round structures that Look like Giant Water reservoirs, but open to the air)...The Parsees never buried their dead, nor burned them.  They leave them to the Birds of Prey (Vultures) to be eaten thus completing the Life Cycle..

Around 10 years ago, it was noticed that the Birds are dying off. Not many of them were left to consume the dead bodies (which started rotting away)...So, the Parsees had to change this mode of dealing with their dead.. BUT, they wanted to know why a Custom that survived for hundreds of years, had to be suspended?!!

They did Autopsies on Dead Birds (they were dying in huge numbers)..What was the Culprit??? PARACETAMOL (PANADOL)...!!   People started consuming pain-killers a decade ago, Panadol STAYS in the Liver for a Long Time...It ultimately accumulated in the Birds' systems & they could not cope with it!

Interesting to know... 

PANADOL

My husband was working in a hospital as an IT engineer, as the hospital is planning to set up a database of its patients and he knows some of the doctors quite well. The doctors used to tell him that whenever they have a headache, they are not willing to take PANADOL / PARACETAMOL.

In fact, they will turn Herbal Medicine or find other alternatives. This is because Panadol is toxic to the body, and it harms the liver. According to the doctor: Panadol will remain in the body for at least 5 years.....!!

And according to the doctor, there was an air-hostess who consumed lots of Panadol as she needed to stand all the time and work under lots of pressure. She's now in her early 30's, and she is undergoing kidney cleaning (DIALYSIS) every month.

Whenever we have a headache, that's because it is due to the electron / Ion imbalance in the brain.   Some alternative solution to cope with headache is to Drink lots of water.

Another method will be to submerge your feet in a basin of warm water so that it brings the blood pressure down from your throbbing head.

As Panadol is a pain killer, the more Panadol you take, the lesser would be your threshold for pain (your endurance level for pain). We all will fall ill as we age.

Imagine that we had spent our entire life popping quite a substantial amount of Panadol (Pain Killer), when you need to have a surgery or operation, you will need a much more amount of general anaesthesia.

The thought is scary enough to turn me to Herbal Medicine or other healthier alternative. Value your health, value your life, THINK TWICE before you easily pop that familiar pill into your mouth again.

Please don't take PANADOL always and try to send this e-mail to people you care.

In India it is sold as CROCIN or METACIN.
The post is big but worth reading

READ IT SLOWLY... I DON'T KNOW WHO WROTE IT, BUT I AM GUESSING IT WAS A SENIOR CITIZEN. I FIRST STARTED READING IT FAST UNTIL I STOPPED AND STARTED OVER, READING SLOWER AND THINKING ABOUT EVERY WORD.

THIS POST IS VERY THOUGHT - PROVOKING. MAKES YOU STOP AND THINK.

You know. . . time has a way of moving quickly and catching you unaware of the passing years.

It seems just yesterday that I was young, and embarking on my new life. Yet in a way, it seems like eons ago, and I wonder where all the years went. I know that I lived them all. I have glimpses of how it was back then and of all my hopes and dreams. But, here it is... the winter of my life and it catches me by surprise... How did I get here so fast? Where did the years go and where did my youth go?

I remember well seeing older people through the years and thinking that those older people were years away from me and that winter was so far off that I could not fathom it or imagine fully what it would be like. But, here it is...my friends are retired and getting grey... they move slower and I see an older person now. Some are in better and some in worse shape than me...but, I see the great change... Not like the ones that I remember who were young and vibrant..but, like me, their age is beginning to show and we are now those older folks that we used to see and never thought we'd be.

Each day now, I find that just getting a shower is a real target for the day! And taking a nap is not a treat anymore... it's mandatory!

Cause if I don't on my own free will... I just fall asleep where I sit!

And so...now I enter into this new season of my life unprepared for all the aches and pains and the loss of strength and ability to go and do things that I wish I had done but never did!

But, at least I know, that though the winter has come, and I'm not sure how long it will last... this I know, that when it's over on this earth...it's NOT over. A new adventure will begin!

Yes, I have regrets. There are things I wish I hadn't done...things Ishould have done, but indeed, there are many things I'm happy to have

done. It's all in a lifetime.

So, if you're not in your winter yet...let me remind you, that it will be here faster than you think. So, whatever you would like to accomplish in your life please do it timely! Don't put things off too long!

Life goes by quickly. So, do what you can today, as you can never be sure whether this is your winter or not! You have no promise that you will see all the seasons of your life...so, live for today and say all the things that you want your loved ones to remember...and hope that

they appreciate and love you for all the things that you have done for them in all the years past!

"Life" is a gift to you. The way you live your life is your gift to those who come after. Make it a fantastic one.

LIVE IT WELL! ENJOY TODAY! DO SOMETHING FUN! BE HAPPY! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

REMEMBER:....

"It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.

LASTLY, CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

TODAY IS THE OLDEST YOU'VE EVER BEEN, YET THE YOUNGEST YOU'LL EVER BE, SO - ENJOY THIS DAY WHILE IT LASTS.

~Your kids are becoming you......

~Going out is good. Coming home is better!

~You forget names... But it's OK because other people forgot they even knew you!!!

~You realize you're never going to be really good at anything.... especially golf.

~The things you used to care to do, you no longer care to do, but you really do care that you don't care to do them anymore.

~You sleep better on a lounge chair with the TV blaring than in bed.

It's called "pre-sleep".

~You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch..

~You tend to use more 4 letter words ... "what?"..."when?"... "what?" "where?"

~Now that you can afford expensive jewelry - it's not safe to wear it anywhere.

~You notice everything they sell in stores is "sleeveless!?"

~What used to be freckles are now liver spots.

~Everybody whispers.

~You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet.... 2 of which you will never wear.

~But Old is good in some things: Old Songs, Old movies, and best of all,

OLD FRIENDS !!

Stay well, "OLD FRIEND!" Send this on to other "Old Friends!" and let them laugh in AGREEMENT!

It's Not What You Gather, But What You Scatter That Tells What Kind of winter yours is or is going to be. Enjoy life b4 winter or enjoy the winter. Wherever u may be, my friend let's continue to wish each other the very best of luck!

A very nice story from Africa

*UBUNTU* - A very nice story from Africa ...

The motivation behind the Ubuntu culture in Africa ...

An Anthropologist proposed a game to the African tribal children ...

He placed a basket of sweets near a tree

And made the children stand 100 metres away.

Then announced that whoever reaches first would get all the sweets in the basket.

When he said 'ready steady go!' ...

Do you know what these children did?

They all held each other's hands, ran together towards the tree, divided the sweets equally among themselves, ate the sweets and enjoyed it.

When the Anthropologist asked them why they did so,
 
They answered 'Ubuntu'.

Which meant -
_'How can one be happy when the others are sad?'_

Ubuntu in their language means -
_'I am because we are!'_

A strong message.
Let all of us always have this attitude and spread happiness wherever we go.

Let's have a *_Ubuntu_* Life ...

क्या करें सरकार जब संस्कार न हो

आए दिन बलात्कार और छेडछाड की घटनाएं
आत्महत्या और कत्ल
भ्रष्टाचार और अनैतिकता
इनके जनक कौन???
सरकार या समाज या परिवार
रामनवमी का पर्व
राजा राम जैसे आर्दश
माँ दुरगा की अराधना
उसी दिन देश मे बलात्कार
शर्म से सर झुक जाता है
यह केवल सरकार की जिम्मेदारी तो नहीं
समाज की भी है
परिवार की है
पाठशाला की है
माता- पिता की है
साधु -  संन्यासियों की है
नैतिकता नस.- नस मे डालनी होगी
संस्कार की नींव डालनी होगी
तभी देश विकास कर सकता है
हवस और वासना के खेल मे किसी की जिंदगी बर्बाद
यह तो सरासर अनुचित

यह राजनीति का सर्कस है भाई , संभलकर चलना

यह राजनीति का सर्कस है
जनता तो दर्शक है
जब कभी डगमगाए ,देती है जोरदार पटखनी
होश ही उड जाते हैं
शब्द भी लडखडा जाते हैं
चारों तरफ अंधकार
दूसरे क्या अपने भी व्यंग करने से नहीं चूकते
आज मोदी - योगी की जोडी को छोड
बुआ - भतीजा की जोडी को तव्वजों दी
बुआ के हाथी ने साईकिल चलाया
गढ में घुसकर सेंध लगाई
फूलपूर में ही फूल मुरझा गया
गोरखपूर के मंहत का मठ ढहा दिया
योगी तो ताकते रह गए
जनता ने अपना काम कर दिया
ये नेता समझते हैं कि जनता को हम नचाते हैं
जबकि छडी तो जनता के हाथ में है
वह विशालकाय हाथी से लेकर शेर तक को नचाती है
यहॉ कोई स्थायी नहीं
यह सर्कस अपना डेरा बदलता रहता है
आज यहॉ तो कल वहॉ
इसका तो स्वभाव ही है ज्यादा समय तक न टिकना
मनोरंजन के नए साधन न ढूढे तो दूसरी बार कोई नहीं देखेगा और आएगा
राजनीति भी ऐसी ही है
नेता काम नहीं करेंगे
केवल जुमलेबाजी से जनता खुश नहीं होगी
सर्कस में रिंग मास्टर की ही चलती है
कोई कितना ही बलवान और विशालकाय हो
यह तो सबको याद रखना है
कमल को भी अब कर्तब दिखाना होगा
हाथ को भी किसी का हाथ थामना होगा
और दूसरे दलों को भी
सत्ता पर काबिज होना है तो यह भी याद रखना है
इस सर्कस की असली रिंग मास्टर जनता है
हंटर उसके हाथ में है
नचाना उसका काम है नेता का नहीं
यह बात नहीं भूलना है.

गाड़ी चलाए पर जरा संभल कर

विज्ञान का जमाना
जीवन की रफ्तार भी तेज
हर कोई आगे बढना चाहता
एक दूसरे से आगे बढने की होड मे कुछ न देखना
पर किसी की जिंदगी की गाड़ी को रोक देना
किसी के सपने छिन लेना
किसी परिवार का आधार छिन लेना
ऐसी. रफ्तार का क्या फायदा
आगे बढिए और दूसरों का भी ख्याल रखें
नहीं तो आप भी तो परिणाम भुगतगे
गाडी संभाल कर चलाए
होश में ,नशे मे नहीं
चाहे वह कैसा भी हो
दौलत का हो ,शराब का हो
वह जानलेवा ही होता है

किसान की पदयात्रा

किसानों की पदयात्रा
मुख्यमंत्री तक पहुंचने की कोशिश
सफल भी रहे
आश्वासन भी मिला
मांगे पूरी होगी
संतुष्ट हो वापस लौटे
खुश भी होंगे
पैरों में छाले पडे
धूप में नंगे पैर चलते
लोग दुखी हुए
यह दशा देखकर
अन्नदाता इतना लाचार
पैर में पहनने के लिए चप्पल खरिदने के मुहाल
दुख हुआ फोटो डाले गए
पर अपने गिरेबान में झॉककर किसी ने देखा
प्रकृति तो उसके साथ ऑखमिचौली करती ही है
हम तो उससे भी आगे??
हमारा वेतन तो निश्चित है
पर उसका टमाटर
कभी ६० रूपए तो कभी ६० पैसे
व्यापारी और बिचौलिए की तो बल्ले - बल्ले
पर बीज और खाद डालने वाला
पसीने बहाने वाला
उसका क्या???
जरा सोचिए ़़़़़़़़
उनका घाव देखकर हमारा घाव हरा हो गया
उनकी चोट देखकर हमारे दिल पर चोट लगी
डॉक्टरों ने मरहमपट्टी भी की
आज खून देखकर हम विचलित हो गये
वह तो हनेशा खून को पसीने के रूप में बहाता रहा है
किसान आत्महत्या कर रहा है
गॉव छोडकर शहर पलायन कर रहा है
जिंदगी ही छोड रहा है
नई पीढी खेती नहीं करना चाह रही है
इतनी मेहनत - मशक्कत वह नहीं कर सकती
मोबाईल- मोटरसाईकिल पर घूम रही है
आगे बढना और सुविधा तो सबकी जरूरत है
वसुधैव कुंटुब की भावना नहीं रही
सुजलाम - सुफलाम देश की यह हालत
यह घाव किसान का नहीं
देश पर है
इस घाव की  मरहमपट्टी समय पर न की गई
तो यह घाव नासूर बन जाएगा

HoW To Inspire Manners in Your Children

HOW TO INSPIRE MANNERS IN YOUR CHILDREN.

1. When entering the house greet your children or even hug them. This should help develop their sense of love and self worth.

2. Be good to your neighbours and never backbite. Never speak ill of other drivers when on the road. Your children would listen, absorb and emulate.

3. When calling your parents, encourage your children to speak to them. When visiting your parents take your children with you. The more they see you take care of your parents the more they will learn to take care of you.

4. When driving them to school, don't always play albums or cds in the car. Rather, tell them some motivational stories yourself. This will have a greater impact - trust me!

5. Read to them a short story and  even a scripture a day – it doesn't take much time, but very impactful in creating strong bonds and wonderful memories. 

6. Comb your hair, clean your teeth and wear presentable cloths even if sitting at home and not going out for the day. They need to learn that being clean and tidy has nothing to do with going out! 

7. Try not to blame or comment on every word or action they say or do. Learn to overlook and let go sometimes. This certainly builds their self-confidence.

8. Ask your children's permission before entering their rooms. Don't just knock and enter, but then wait for a verbal permission. They will learn to do the same when wanting to enter your room.

9. Apologize to your children if you made a mistake. Apologizing teaches them to be humble and polite.

10. Don't be sarcastic or make fun of their views or feelings, even if you "didn't mean it" and was "only joking". It really hurts.

11. Show respect to your children's privacy. Its important for their sense of value and self-esteem.

12. Don't expect that they will listen or understand the first time. Don't take it personal. But be patient and consistent.

13.Pray with them. Show them how to pray. Lead by example.
14. In addition, ask them to discuss their daily plans after the morning prayers. Children without concrete daily plans usually join others in executing theirs. They fall easy to peer pressure.
15.Hold them and bless them specially every morning.
*Please share with other parents.*
