” The love for living creature is the most noble attribute of man”.

These words are well said by Charles Darwin, the biologist, who well know the pertinence of all living creatures and the need of harmony between man and other creatures. Our ecosystem depends on the cycle of interdependence between man and other creatures. If even one species become extinct, our ecosystem gets disturbed.

Man’s avarice allure it to do wrong thing, even killing may it be animals or others in form of poaching, hunting. Scientist reveal the fact, that since the development of ecosystem, above 2000 species have become extinct and about 1000 are endangered.

The question arises……

How long will the Earth sustain….?

OR

How the Earth will sustain by the artificial technology only, when everything is virtual….?

Killing fisheries, poultry, just for savoring tastes is not ethical for human being.

Change is the law of nature. Gone are the days when we enslaved animals or used horses alike ‘Chetak’, cows alike ‘Nandi’ etc. The need of the hour is to protect wildlife, not only by constructing National Parks, Wildlife Sanctuaries or launching campaigns.

It is the awareness which has to be enlighten within each one of us and unconditional bond between us and animals.

With liberty, comes responsibility.

These words are well said by the person who knew the real meaning and would have gone through the responsibilities of being elder.

One ponders, when the word ‘ELDER’ comes to the mind, and associates it with wisdom, liberty and responsibilities.

Parents expect their elder child to be more wise than younger one, scolds him or her more than younger child for they know that the elder child can understand and is wise enough to differentiate between everything, whether it be vice over virtues or good over evil. But the fact cannot be denied that they love the elder child more than younger child. There is a sudden fun of being elder sibling at home, for we know the weakness of younger brother or sister and can move him or her or rule over him or scold him whenever we like. Apart from all these, being elder, we have to fight for him, protect him and help him in every phase of his life alike Balarama did for Lord Krishna, Lord Rama did for Laxman or Raavan did for her sister. Each example depicts the patience and wisdom of elder sibling.

Being elder, it is our responsibility to guide the younger one on right path, open doors of success from him, leaving behind all the fights or hatreds.

Money material or fame should not intervene the blood relationships.

Every mother wants both of the child to be together forever.

Superstition, a belief or practice typically resulting from ignorance, a misunderstanding from Science or causality, a belief in fate or magic, perceived supernatural influence, or fear of that which is unknown.

Superstitions allow people to explain events that otherwise seem random and to feel they have a measure of control over outcomes that would otherwise seem out of their hands.

Approximately 70% of people in India believe in superstitions and force others too to believe in them.

Some common superstitions believed in India and their scientific reasons…..

Avoid standing under Peepal tree at night.

Peepal tree is defamed as it is said that if one will stand or go near the Peepal tree at night then that person will be possessed by an evil spirit.

Scientific reason – In the morning when photosynthesis happens, trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide, change it into energy and give out oxygen in the air that we breathe. But at night, plants exhale carbon dioxide while there is a lack of sunlight.

Lemon and Green chilies.

Shop keepers, businessmen, people at home usually hang lemon and green chilies so as to avoid bad luck and evil spirits.

The logic here is that since goddess of misfortune ( who can bring bad luck to the shop owners or business), likes pungent, sour and hot things, individuals hang lemon and green chilies so that the goddess eats her favorite food and goes back from their fully satisfied.

Not to sleep facing the North side.

It is said if one sleeps facing the North side then he/ she would die.

Scientific reason – It’s about the relation between Earth’s magnetic field and the human body’s field. They made this rule of sleeping with our heads in the South direction to avoid harmful effects related to blood pressure and other diseases that asymmetry with the Earth’s magnetic field would create.

Broken mirrors.

People of ancient Rome spread the rumors that breaking mirrors will give you 7 years if bad luck.

Scientific reason – The logic behind the number 7 is that as per Roman beliefs, it takes 7 years for a life to renew itself.

Twitching eyes.

It is believed if your left eye blinks then you are going to hear a bad news. If your right eye jumps, you will see someone you haven’t seen in a long time. If your left eye jumps then your loved one/ friend is doing something behind your back. If your left eye jumps, then your loved one/ friend is in trouble.

Scientific reason – The logical reason behind it is that twitching is caused due to alcohol, stress, allergies, strain or dry eyes.

Adding one rupee to a gift sum.

Whenever we hand over a sum of money to anyone as a gift we often out in a coin of Rs. 1 to it and the wedding ‘lifafah’ always has a coin stuck to it.

Scientific reason – The main reason to add extra coin is to make the entire sum an odd number which becomes indivisible, and therefore it is good for the person or the newly married couple. If the number is even by that logic, then the sum will end in a zero which means ‘the end’.

Swallow Tulsi leaves, never chew.

There is one popular belief that Tulsi is Goddess Lakshmi’s Avtar and hence one should not chew the leaves, not show disrespect.

Scientific reason – Although a Tulsi leaf is healthy, it also contains a little amount of Arsenic. So to save your teeth from turning yellow, and saving the enamel from degrading, you do not chew but swallow.

WHAT….?

The variant, Delta Plus is a sub lineage of the Delta Variant, first detected in India and has acquired the first spike protein mutation called K417N which is also found in the Beta variant first identified in South Africa.

HOW IT IS DIFFERENT ….?

The disease caused by this variant might exhibit different symptoms than the other viral mutations. The spike protein mutations make the Delta variant “the fastest and the fittest” variant.

IS IT MORE DEADLY….?

Delta variant fist identified in India and also known as B.1.617.2, carries a greater risk of hospitalization, is around 60% more transmissible than the Alpha strain and is more resistant to vaccines, particularly only when one dose has been given.

SYMPTOMS….?

• Headaches
• Sore throats
• Runny noses
• Fever

Although, according to WHO officials the Delta variant also causes more severe symptoms, but that more research is needed to confirm those conclusions. Still, there are signs that Delta strain could provoke different symptoms than other variants.

CAN YOU GET DELTA VARIANT IF YOU ARE VACCINATED….?

If one is fully vaccinated, particularly with the two-dose vaccine then he/she doesn’t have to worry about the Delta variant.

IS COVAXIN EFFECTIVE AGAINST DELTA VARIANT….?

Covaxin, Covishield are effective against Delta variant, says Health Secretary.

CAN ONE GET DELTA VARIANT IF ALREADY BEEN COVID POSITIVE….?

The research says people who have already had COVID should be protected against it, but that it’s not guaranteed. In addition, it is also said that researchers don’t know yet if it is more dangerous for young people. Both groups are advised to get vaccinated.

“Stay Safe, Get Vaccinated, Wear Mask Properly, Wash Your Hands Properly, Maintain Distance”.

North Delhi Municipal Corporation has given another reason to tourists to visit the Walled City in near future by intensifying work on a heritage park located next to the Parade Ground parking lot.

The 1.75 acre plot, which will be divided into two parts, faces two historical monuments.

The site is currently being levelled and the project is expected to be completed by December.

The park will have a 400m boundary wall constructed with RCC pillars and bricks. The finishing will be done with Mihrab made of red stone, decorative stone jalis etc.

While visiting Jama Masjid and Red Fort, visitors can come and relax there. Apart from developing the lawn, there will be planting saplings of indigenous trees, like amaltas, peepal and banyan. To make the place look elegant at night, the Corporation has planned to install artistic lampposts in the corridors. For giving easy access, pavements will be constructed around the park.

School, well known as temple of knowledge, providing us with basic growth foundations like character, discipline and development.

It is a body/ institution, which accentuates us to the peak. Today, the gravest issue, mushrooming today, i.e., Emerging Tuition Centers, has been highlighted.

As we all know, ‘ change is the law of nature’ . The paradigm of educational institution has been shifted from school to tuition. About 95% students go to tuition centers. There is nothing wrong for, today competition is as lovelier in our school as once character was and everybody wants to excel. Tuition centers contain duster of pioneers, providing the students a readymade matter and tailored course, thus making them competent.

As we all know that according to Charles Darwin ;

“The theory of survival of fittest”….

prevails, hence, no student want to leave any stone unturned on their part to attain success, may it leads to their negligence the pertinence of schools and school teachers.

The flip side of these tuition centers can’t be neglected, once student enter into the nexus of tuitions, he looses his main tools- charm, self practice and value of teachers. Also, he tries to distract other students and tries to show his smartness but not every time has the same result in competence, every child joins tuition but not all succeed.

As we know that ;

“ Horse can be taken into river but can’t be forced to cross it”.

The burden of tuitions gnawing the minds of students could only be shifted by only focusing on school education. Parents also should feel their responsibility towards their child’s education which can’t be merely solved by tuition centers.

Hence, at length we can say that tuition centers can prove fruitful as long as they solve the purpose, otherwise wastage of time is not required with pace. Tuition centers can be avoided as we already know the fact that ;

Genius are never made, they are born alike M.K Gandhi, A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, Narendra Modi grew their dignity by themselves.
