This cockroach theory for Self Development At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant. Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their h...

👆*Reproduced after 33 years of mother's carrying baby in plastic bag* A beautiful photo taken by the photographer has become a classic that has been circulated for decades. A Hungarian photographer, Attila Manek, accidentally caught a mother choosing to buy fruits and vegetables in a market in Budapest, Hungary in 1987, carrying a small baby in a transparent plastic bag, and the baby gnawing at an apple. In the photo, the mother with short hair was profiled, and she looked elegant and looked like Princess Diana of England, which amazed many people. However, what was even more eye-catching was that she went to the vegetable market and carried her baby in a large plastic bag.  The muscular lines of the tendons and the images full of disharmony have made this photo widely reposted by netizens for many years. 33 years after that photo, photographer Attila Manek once again found the pair of Hungarian mother & daughter. At that time, the baby in the plastic bag had grown...

Jab history meets geography

As a kid I was always obsessed with stories about Indian mythology. Nobody can dispute the fact that India has a very rich and diverse ancient history which is evident in its vast repertoire of temples and archaeological sites and items. That kind of set me off on a search for various ancient cities that flourished in medieval period of Indian history. These cities have successfully progressed into important cities of modern India. I bet one of these is surely going to surprise you.  Ancient Cities Part 1 Patna - The original name of Patna was Pataliputra or Patalipattan and its history makes a start from the century 600 B.C. The name Patna has undergone many changes at its earliest stages like Pataligram, Kusumpur, Patliputra, Azimabad etc., ultimately terminating to the present one. A ncient Patna, known as Pataliputra, was the capital of the Magadh Empire through Haryanka, Nanda, Mauryan, Shunga, Gupta and Pala dynasties. Delhi -The history of the city is as old as the epic Maha...

 * Never ever Own a Disease * Lot of people have a Habit of saying, “I am Diabetic” or "I'm Hypertensive" etc. When you say “I am...” then you “Own the Disease”, you make the disease a “Part of Yourself”, it becomes your “Identity...” Another Classic Example which most people have a habit of saying is, “I am Suffering from....” This is an extremely Harmful Statement. You are associating “Suffering” with your disease. You are constantly “Inviting Misery” with it.  What should you say? “I am “Going Through” the condition of Diabetes or Hypertension”. When you say, “Going Through the condition...” it simply means you are on a “Journey”, which eventually will come to an “End”.  By adding “Condition”, you are stating that it will “Change”. Why is it important? Words have “Tremendous Power”. Words carry “Vibration”. These vibrations are directly connected with your “Subconscious Mind”. You become what you “Say”.  The “Manifestation Occurs” based on what your Subconscious M...

From the book "Tiger in the Toilet" Once  a Tiger entered the washroom in a Corporate Office and hid in a dark corner.  Many people frequented the washroom, after four days it couldn’t bear hunger anymore, so it caught a man who had come in, and ate him.  This man happened to be an Assistant General Manager in the organization, but nobody noticed his disappearance.  Since nothing untoward happened, the Tiger became bolder and after two days caught another man and ate him.  This man was the General Manager of the organization.  Still, nobody worried over his disappearance. Next day, the Tiger caught the Vice President who was a terror in the organization. Again nothing happened.  Then  Tiger caught a man who had entered the washroom while balancing a tray of teacups in one hand.   Within 15 minutes a huge hue and cry ensued, and everyone in the office started looking for the man. The search team reached the washroom, flushed out the Tiger...

🥥 *Why we break a coconut 🥥  On auspicious occasions and for Hindus when they go to a temple?   Wonderful message.. Do you know why we break a coconut when we go to a temple? Its the process of breaking the coconut which we have to imbibe within ourselves. You first tear away the husk from the coconut. That husk is your wishes, desires. You need to leave it. Then comes the hard shell.. that’s the ego. You need to break that. What flows out is water.. which is all things which are negative inside you flows out. Left behind is the coconut pure white.. that is the soul. So you connect with the almighty in your purest form which is the soul. Hats off of our ancestors 🙏

A college student group asked a lawyer *"Sir, what does 'advocacy' mean?"* The lawyer replied: *"I will present an example for this!* 👇 *Suppose two people come to me, one is very clean and the other is very dirty. I advise both of them to get clean and take bath.* *Now you guys tell me, who among them will take a shower ?? "* One student said: *"The one who is dirty will take a shower."* The lawyer said: *"No, but the clean person will do it, because he has the habit of bathing, while the dirty does not know the importance of cleaning* *Now tell me who will take a shower ?? "* The second student said: *"Clean person"* The lawyer said: *"No, but the dirty person will take a bath because he is the one who needs cleaning.* *Now tell who will take a shower ??

Krishnamurthy Ella - The Man behind Covaxin

Krishnamurthy Ella was born in 1969, in an agricultural family to middle class parents. No one could have imagined his trajectory. Perhaps because of his background, Krishna wanted to study agriculture. His father wasn’t pleased - he told his son “Nobody becomes a farmer by just studying agriculture” . Unfazed, Krishna joined University of Agricultural sciences in Bangalore. His passion and hardwork earned him a gold medal. Unlike “ordinary” gold medalists, he wasn’t content to get a job. Nevertheless he supported himself after undergrad by working briefly in the agricultural division of Bayer Pharma. He longed for more. He got a rotary scholarship which enabled him to move to the US, to do his PhD in University of Wisconsin. The scholarship was the wind under his wings. There was no looking back. His speciality was molecular biology. While in the US, he met Suchitra, an economics graduate and married her.  Average Indians in US would dream of a green card for themselves. Dr Krishn...
