The closeted souls

Meet Jay , a 19 year college student. Jay came out to their parents last year as queer. You must be wondering why did I use ” their ” for a single person, well the simple answer is- because they want to be called in that way. Because they recognise themselves in a way that might seem weird to you , but is completely normal and real.

How difficult is it to finally understand who you actually are , it takes a lot amount of courage to recognise oneself as someone ,who people don’t relate to. Sec 377 has been legally abrogated. And people have to understand that being themselves is neither wrong nor something to be embarrassed of.

LGBTQ community has been facing a lot of difficulties , from their families , and society as a whole. They are discriminated against, not given equal amount of opportunities, and have to face the brunt of the narrow mindedness of the society everyday. The number of hate crimes against the community are increasing day by day. Despite being a part of the society,they are made to feel as outsiders. Do you realise how difficult it is to understand oneself ,and even more difficult to explain it to others.

The worst part is when they have to look for validation, acceptance for who they are from their loved ones, and they don’t get that . It’s strange for someone to not look at you with the same feelings of love and respect anymore. Fighting for one’s rights has always been a tough battle. It also affects their mental health because the amount of stress and negativity they have to deal with.

Many people have not been able to come out of the closet, not able to accept themselves as who they are. It’s very suffocating for them to not be able to live their life as they want to. For some , it has been a beautiful journey with supportive family and friends, and for some , the journey is just not coming to an end.

 Platforms like Gaysi and Gaylaxy, and publishers like Queer Ink have helped carve out spaces for LGBT people to interact, share and collaborate. These platforms have helped people to share their experiences and help them to encourage others to accept who they are.

I just want to put it out their, that who you are, is something only you can know. Nobody has the right to decide that for you. And don’t ever give that right to anybody else. Loving yourself the way you are is the best thing you can do for you. It doesn’t matter if people don’t accept you , what matters the most if for you to accept yourself and be happy.

Déjà vu

“Is déjà vu actually the specter of false timelines that never happened but did, casting their shadows upon reality?”
― Blake Crouch, Recursion

The mind may be a wonderful thing – there’s such a lot , which remains a mystery to the present day. Science is able to describe strange phenomena, but cannot account for their origins. We all have some experience of familiar feelings, which involves us occasionally, about what we are saying and do, what we all know and see, what we listen and listen to . When you walk into the house of a replacement friend, you realise something strange. The place looks familiar though you’ve got not been there and therefore the people look familiar though you’ve got not seen them.

You have been there before, but not exactly in person. A serious recollection causes you to realise that it had been during a dream, a dream that completely portrayed with every small detail the precise room you’re now standing in. Sounds familiar? This is an experience that’s not as rare as most of the people think. For many, these arbitrary feelings of extreme familiarity, known as déjà vu, come through dreams that some say predict the future. These reminder feelings are all of the dreams that we’ve each night that we cannot remember. You feel as if you’ve got already been there because you’ve got , in your dreams. The things that dreams show may not be significant, just a random moment proposed to happen somewhere in the near or far future. There have also been accounts where the dreamer claims they saw a catastrophic event occur before the incident actually happened. The frequency of reminder decreases with age and is commonest among people from 15 to 25 years old. High income and well educated people have more déjà vu experiences. Déjà vu appears to be related to stress and fatigue. Those who travel have more reminder experiences. Some people report that reminder experiences appear to repeat prior dreams.

In a nutshell,any person who has strong senses and clear mind can differentiate between past and present happenings efficiently and won’t feel reminder ever in life. Déjà vu is an interesting and unusual experience where something feels very familiar, but we know it should not feel as familiar as it does. The experience is vital because it shows us that remembering happens with a series of steps, a number of which may fail . Young people have reminder the foremost , and this might actually be a symbol that children are excellent at spotting when their brains start telling them that things are more familiar than they ought to feel. It is very hard to do experiments to make people have déjà vu and we still do not know what actually causes it, but this makes it a very interesting topic for scientists to investigate

Naphthalene balls

Naphthalene balls have been used for decades as household preservative of clothes and as deodorant tables for toilets, urinals etc. They are manufactured from naphthalene flakes by a tablet making machine having a ball shaped die. The product has wide market and the investment cost is low. The raw material is required for manufacturing Naphthalene Balls are Naphthalene flakes, camphor, phenol etc.

Moth balls over the sackcloth.

Dictionary meaning:

a white, crystalline, water-insoluble hydrocarbon, C10H8, usually obtained from coal tar: used in making dyes, as a moth repellant, etc.

Mothballs or Naphthalene balls are small balls containing smell of a deodorant and are used for storing clothing and articles susceptible to damage from mold or moth larvae. It is also used as a repellent to keep away mice, snakes, or other pests and for use as a stovepipe cleaner.1 Mothballs have been used by drag racers to enhance the octane rating of fuel, by dissolving the mothballs in some of the fuel and filtering out the remains with a filter paper. Generally mothballs are made from ingredients containing either naphthalene or para-dichloro benzene. Due to health risks of naphthalene and para-dichloro benzene, these chemicals have been prohibited for the use in mothballs. Nowadays, camphor is being used as a substitute for these chemicals.

Proper Use of Mothballs

Mothball labels typically direct users to place mothballs in a tightly closed container that will prevent the pesticide fumes from accumulating in living spaces where people and pets can breathe them in for long periods of time. Inside airtight containers, the vapors released by the mothballs build up and kill the clothes moths.

One common mistake is using mothballs in containers that aren’t airtight, allowing the toxic vapors to escape into the surrounding air. This can lead to long-term exposure, which may cause health problems.

Another common mistake is using mothballs in gardens or other outdoor locations to control insects, snakes or other wildlife. Using mothballs outside can harm children, pets and other animals. Mothballs used outdoors can also contaminate soil, plants and water. The information below contains additional resources for the proper use of mothballs and some alternative methods of controlling clothes moths.

Other places you may find naphthalene being used include:

  • Abrasives
  • Fuels
  • Agricultural chemicals, other than pesticides
  • Paint additives
  • Adhesives

Health Effects of Mothballs

Mothballs are nearly 100% active ingredient, and the active ingredient may be either naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene. Each active ingredient can cause different health effects if the exposure is high enough. Mothballs slowly turn from solids to toxic vapor. When you smell mothballs, you are inhaling the insecticide. Mothballs can also be dangerous if they are chewed or eaten. Children, pets and wildlife may mistake them for food or candy and eat them. One mothball can cause serious harm if eaten by a small child.

 Inhalation of naphthalene may cause skin and eye irritation; gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea; neurologic symptoms, such as confusion, excitement, and convulsions; renal problems, such as acute renal shutdown; and hematologic features, such as icterus and severe anemia.

Hanko San-Japanese Urban Legend

Legends about Hanko-san have achieved some popularity in Japanese schools, where children may challenge classmates to undertake to summon Hanko-san. The character has been depicted during a kind of media, including films, manga, anime, and video games.
Hanko-san, or Toire no Hanko-san may be a Japanese urban legend about the spirit of a lass named Hanko-san who haunts school toilets. Like many urban legends, the tiny print of the origins of the legend vary relying on the account; different versions of the story include that Hanko-san is that the ghost of a war II-era girl who was killed while playing hide-and-seek during an air raid , that she was murdered by a parent or stranger, or that she committed suicide in a school toilet.
According to legend, Hanko-san is that the spirit of a lass who haunts school toilets, and may be described as a yōkai or a yūrei. The details of her physical appearance vary across different sources, but she is usually described as having a bobbed haircut and as wearing a red skirt or dress. The details of Hanko-san’s origins also vary counting on the account; in some versions, Hanko-san was a toddler who was murdered by a stranger or an abusive parent in a school toilet; in other versions, she was a woman who committed suicide during a school toilet; in still other versions, she was a toddler who lived during war II, and who was killed during a n air attack while hiding in a school toilet during a game of hide-and-seek.
To summon Hanko-san, it’s often said that individuals must enter a girls’ toilet (usually on the third floor of a school), knock 3 times on the third stall, and ask if Hanko-san is present. If Hanko-san is there, she is going to reply with some variation of “Yes, I am.” counting on the story, the individual may then witness the looks of a bloody or ghostly hand;[4][5] the hand, or Hanko-san herself, may pull the individual into the rest room , which can cause Hell; or the individual could also be eaten by a three-headed lizard who claims that the individual was invading Hanko’s privacy.

Narendra Modi’s inspiring life journey to the Office of Prime Minister began in the by-lanes of Vadnagar, a small town in North Gujarat’s Mehsana district. He was born on the 17th of September 1950; three years after India had gained its Independence. This makes him the first Prime Minister to be born in independent India. Mr. Modi is the third child born to Damodardas Modi and Hiraba Modi. Mr. Modi comes from a family of humble origins and modest means. The entire family lived in a small single store house which was approximately 40 feet by 12 feet.



Formative Years

Narendra Modi’s formative years taught him early tough lessons as he balanced his studies, non-academic life to spare time to work at the family owned Tea Stall as the family struggled to make ends meet. His school friends remember that as a child also he was very industrious and had an affinity for debates and a curiosity to read books. Schoolmates recollect how Mr. Modi used to spend many hours reading in the local Library. As a child he was also fond of swimming.

Mr. Modi’s thoughts and dreams as a child were quite removed from how most children of his age thought. Perhaps it was the influence of Vadnagar which once used to be a vibrant center of Buddhist learning and spirituality many centuries ago. As a child also he always felt a strong urge to make a difference to society. He was highly influenced by the works of Swami Vivekananda which laid the foundation of his journey towards spiritualism and which inspired him to pursue the mission to fulfill Swamiji’s dream of making India a Jagat Guru.

At the age of 17 he left home to travel across India. For two years he travelled across the expansive landscape of India exploring various cultures. When he returned home he was a changed man with a clear aim of what he wanted to achieve in life. He went to Ahmedabad and joined Rastriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). RSS is a socio-cultural organization working towards the social and cultural regeneration of India. It was a tough routine for Narendra Modi in Ahmedabad since 1972 when he became a Pracharak for RSS. His day began at 5 am and went on till late night. Late 1970s also saw a young Narendra Modi join the movement to restore Democracy in India which was reeling under Emergency.

While continuing to shoulder different responsibilities within the Sangh during the 1980s Narendra Modi emerged as an Organizer exemplar with his organizing skills. In 1987 a different chapter began in the life of Mr. Modi when he started work as the General Secretary of the BJP in Gujarat. In his first task Mr. Modi won a victory for the BJP in Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation elections for the first time ever. He also ensured that the BJP was a close second to the Congress in the 1990 Gujarat Assembly elections. In the 1995 Assembly elections Mr. Modi’s organizational skills ensured the BJP’s vote share increased and the party won 121 seats in the Assembly.

Mr. Modi worked as the National Secretary of BJP from 1995 looking after party’s activities in Haryana and Himachal Pradesh. As BJP’s General Secretary Organization he worked to ensure the BJP won the 1998 Lok Sabha elections. It was in September 2001 that Mr. Modi received a phone call from then Prime Minister Vajpayee which opened a new chapter in his life taking him from the rough and tumble of Organizational Politics to the world of Governance. 




Years in Governance

Narendra Modi’s evolution from quintessential Organization Man of the BJP to one of India’s best known leaders recognized for his Good Governance over a span of a decade tells a story of grit, determination and Strong Leadership in the face of grave adversity. Narendra Modi’s transition from the world of Political Organizing to the realm of Administration and Governance neither had the luxury of time nor the benefit of training. Shri Modi had to learn the ropes of Administration while on the job right from Day One. Narendra Modi’s first 100 days in office offer a glimpse of not just how Shri Modi made that personal transition but these 100 days also offer a glimpse of how Shri Modi brought unconventional thinking and out of the box ideas to shake status-quo and reform Governance.

Narendra Modi’s life has been a journey of courage, compassion and constant hard work. At a very young age he had decided to devote his life in service of the people. He displayed his skills as a grass root level worker, an organizer and an administrator during his 13 year long stint as the Chief Minister of his home state of Gujarat, where he ushered a paradigm shift towards pro-people and pro-active good governance.

Narendra Modi’s path to creating a Vibrant Gujarat as a shining example of Development and Governance did not come easy. It was a path littered with adversities and challenges. Through the last decade if there is one constant trait of Narendra Modi that has stood out it is his Strong Leadership in the face of grave adversity. Shri Narendra Modi’s approach to governance has always been viewed as being above politics. Shri Modi never let political differences get in the way of pursuing solutions to developmental challenges. As Shri Narendra Modi prepares to assume Office as India’s next Prime Minister, his approach to Administration and Governance stands out for its convergent thinking. The finest manifestation of Shri Modi’s philosophy of “Minimum Government, Maximum Governance” is his Pancha-Amrut construct for convergent Governance.


His performance is reflected in the many Awards his government received from both National and International media. Shri Narendra Modi as India’s Prime Minister brings with him a rich and hands-on experience as one of India’s most successful Chief Ministers and one of its finest of Administrators. 



History was recorded in the plaza of Rashtrapati Bhawan on the evening of 26th May 2014 as Narendra Modi took oath as the Prime Minister of India after a historic mandate from the people of India. Narendra Modi has come out as a spirited, strong minded and development-oriented leader who have a ray of hope for the dreams and inclination of a bazillions Indians. His aim on enlargement, scrupulous  and attempts to initiate a qualitative difference in the lives of the poorest of the poor have made Narendra Modi a popular and respected leader across the length and breadth of India.

Inunaki-The Cursed Village of Japan

There is a village in Japan where the voices of individuals screaming are always kept on hearing, and where if an individual has gone accidentally, disappeared forever, because the villagers usually kill him ruthlessly. The stories of this village are published in many newspapers in Japan but actually , it’s very difficult to seek out this village because it’s not present on any Japan’s map.
Inunaki may be a village in Japan that’s considered cursed by people and is additionally counted together of the foremost haunted places there. It is said that if you’re browsing the old Inunaki tunnel then a brief way from there results in the Inunaki village and since this path is quite small and hidden, it’s quite difficult to seek out it. At the doorway of the village, you’ll find a signboard on which it’s clearly written that the japanese constitution and laws don’t apply beyond now . Moving a touch further, you’ll find a broken-down house, ahead of which are the remains of a couple’s dead bodies who were unfortunate enough to enter the village and never return. If you continue to go further, you’ll find many such deadly traps which will kill you, and if you continue to manage to flee further, then you’ll need to face the people of this deadly town who will catch you and brutally kill you.
But all the people in Inunaki village are considered dead and here only their evil spirits are wandering, who don’t like all visitor to enter this village. This village is isolated from the surface world and its existence always remains unsure . In a movie called Howling Village, it’s told that by entering Inunaki village, people undergo a time portal in order that they reach the time when the village actually existed. A very famous anecdote associated with the idea of the Inunaki tunnel being a time portal is of an individual who first told people about this village intimately . So it had been in 1999 when a Tele-Networking company from Japan received a letter from an anonymous person, titled “The Village in Japan That Isn’t a part of Japan.” Whatever was described about Inunaki during this letter remains alive as a legend of Inunaki village exactly as we all know it today. Now, who had sent this letter, why and from where it had been sent, nobody has been ready to determine nor has anyone been conscious of it.
It was only clear to the folks that the writings utilized in this letter were almost like the old Japanese scriptures and about an anonymous one that went into detail about the path leading to Inunaki village. According to him, alittle path goes through the Inunaki tunnel, which gets even shorter because it moves further. At the top of it, there’s a village that doesn’t exist on maps and where there’s also a signboard which we’ve discussed earlier. Now after crossing this signboard, one can enter the Inunaki village. Through this letter, the person has also stated that the villagers of Inunaki are insane and that they always still perform some quite rituals. They do not love it in the least that anyone can enter their village and thus they are doing not let any visitor remain alive after coming here. He had also requested the channel to research it as soon as possible to understand its reality and warn others to never go there.
Now many questions also arose on who was that one that knew such a lot about Inunaki, does it mean that the person came from the Inunaki village. It is also said that within the auld langsyne , the people that wont to sleep in this area were began to considered as attackers by the opposite communities, and gradually the people of the Inunaki community were forced to measure on the outskirts of the town. After which those people started cohabitation during a village called Inunaki and gradually they became violent, after which they didn’t allow people of the other community to enter their area. Today, the place where Inunaki is tried to identify can actually be found underwater, because a dam has been constructed thereon spot. And if there ever was an Inunaki village here, now it’s submerged in water.
Now consistent with another story associated with this village, there’s a phone booth near the Inunaki bridge on which a call comes from Inunaki village at exactly 2 o’clock every night, and whoever answers that decision , the thanks to this village automatically opens for them. Death is for certain after getting to this village and albeit someone comes back from there alive, he surely returns being cursed from there. Due to this curse, an individual loses control of his body and mind and eventually dies. Now within the Howling Village movie, Inunaki is described as a village whose people were tortured tons and were killed. But actually , the assumption which is most famous about Inunaki is that the people of this village actually started worshiping evil entities and since of this the land of Inunaki became cursed.

They had completely lost control over themselves, and that they wont to sacrifice their visitors to the devil once they accidentally came to their village, and consistent with many stories, they used to eat them as well. They had thrown those dead bodies on the Inunaki tunnel in order that others wouldn’t attempt to enter this village fearing it. But people still keep checking out this village thanks to their curiosity and explore the world round the Inunaki tunnel. Now, these are all prevalent stories, but now we’ll attempt to skills the rumors of the Inunaki tunnel and Inunaki bridge started spreading.
So the clearest clarification of this we get from an event in 1988, in fact, in 1988 an area gang group in Fukuchi town kidnapped a mill-hand and murdered him a few days later. Now they threw away his body near the tunnel of Inunaki, and as this tunnel was supported a foreign location, this place had become a spot of dead bodies disposal for many such gangs. Until 2000, countless dead bodies were continuously thrown here, after which the police sealed the doorway of this tunnel.
Now, where this news spread sort of a shock among people, on the opposite side, some people began to believe that the police is hiding something from them and hence they have sealed this tunnel. Now though the police sealed this tunnel for the protection of the people, but still some people started making their own theories associated with it, after which many of us went inside the sealed tunnel to seek out out the reality .
Now as far because the existence of Inunaki cares , a proof about this is often that around 1691 a true village named Inunaki existed which merged with a close-by village Yoshikawa in 1889. Now over the years, Yoshikawa merged once more with Miyawaka City and hence there are not any records of it in maps.
Now many of us believe that the stories of Inunaki village are nothing but self-proclaimed stories and on the opposite hand, many of us associate it with the time portal and therefore the conspiracy of the government. And to seek out out the truth , many explorers keep visiting this place, thanks to which it’s become even more famous. As far because the Inunaki curse cares , there’s no solid proof that the people whose death is being connected by the Inunaki curse have ever visited the Inunaki tunnel or not. As long because the village of Inunaki is related to the theories of conspiracy, its legends will remain alive among the people within the same way. It also seems that the stories spoken about the Inunaki village and villagers are self-made and maybe no such village exists actually . But what’s the particular truth, nobody knows.

The dark side of Artificial Intelligence

There are predictions that by 2029, computers will have the power and capacity to outsmart humans. This means that the computers will be able to learn from experiences and comprehend several languages. Just like computers, robots also are likely to evolve faster than humans, thus outsmarting us.
The good thing about artificial intelligence is that it is always bringing together a combination of modern technologies to make life better. These technologies include driverless transportation and targeted treatments within the healthcare sector. However, this innovation is also impacting the way we live today and how we will live in the future. For instance, AI technologies are taking up most of our jobs and increasing data privacy concerns.

Opportunity for Cyber Attacks: Cyber security is one among the IT vectors that AI technologies seem to be targeting. However, there are concerns that hackers are using an equivalent approaches that AI developers are using to style cyber security mechanisms to develop malicious bots. Hackers find it easy to interrupt AI systems because the used codes have flaws and are usually a mixture of several programming methodologies.
AI technologies can also create room for computer users to reveal their passwords to unsuspecting users. They may allow the hacker to send downloadable malware files to a person that seeks to steal login credentials. This technique also can allow hackers to realize access to autonomous devices.

The “Black-box” Problem: AI applications believe machine-learning algorithms or neural networks to mimic the functioning of the human brain. The problem is that it’s impossible to elucidate how these algorithms manage to supply accurate results. This “black-box problem” is one among the dark sides of AI and machine learning. It is sad that folks don’t get access to the knowledge regarding the automated decision-making that AI applications subject them to.

Lack of Transparency: There are concerns regarding the decision of AI system designers refusing to reveal to us the type of input data they feed into the AI systems. For instance, the engineers of the Google program don’t reveal how the program usually ranks search results. They may be considering such processes as company trade secrets. What they are doing is contrary to our expectations of AI applications being transparent.
Lack of transparency in AI applications is beginning to raise speculations regarding how these technologies can really positively change our lives. As much as program designers are arguing that their AI designs are proprietary, it’s time for them to form their processes more transparent. Their failure to stay to the present simple policy may force most of the people to lose their trust in future AI technologies.

Values and Morale: People from different walks of life are raising ethical questions regarding the future of AI. There are data laws in other jurisdictions that protect the rights of people based on how AI technologies affect them. In some countries, when companies and individuals fail to stick to those strict policies, they’ll be susceptible to prosecution or penalties.

Increased Data Privacy Concerns: One problem with the new wave of AI applications is that they demand too much data from people. It is good to note that through AI, machine-learning technologies simplify the process of analyzing large data sets by looking for specified patterns. However, when the method of extracting the info invades the privacy of individuals , then it’s time that these technologies stop being invasive. The data extraction process should only happen when people consent thereto .

It is unfortunate that the info collectors usually ask people to sign contracts with many pages before taking their data. Since most of the people receive most of those agreement policies online, it’s going to take time for them to read and understand the whole document. Most of them end up clicking ‘accept’ before carefully reading what the agreement document entails thus agreeing to share their personal information.
AI technologies may be manipulative if proper oversight is not in place. It is up to market participants, lawyers and policymakers to work together when coming up with an effective regulatory statute that can guide AI-related decision-making processes. Since these technologies directly interact with us, we should also join these stakeholders in regulating AI decision-making. We should be on the verge of setting up an AI watchdog to ensure that the usage of AI programs is fair. Before the programs collect data from us, we’ve the proper to consent to them or deny them the permission.

Poverty is not just lack of money

“Poverty is not just a lack of money; it is not having the capability to realize one’s full potential as a
human being”
This is a Quote by Amartya Sen

According to the ​ World Bank​ , Poverty is pronounced ​ deprivation in well-being, and comprises many dimensions​ . It includes low incomes and the ​ inability to acquire the basic goods and services necessary for survival with dignity​ . Poverty also encompasses low levels of health and education, poor access to clean water and sanitation, inadequate physical security, lack of voice, and insufficient capacity and opportunity to better one’s life.


Poverty is more than just lack of money, deprivation of a person’s capabilities to live the life they have reason to value​ . The capability approach looks at the range of options available for the individual to choose from and the freedom to exercise that choice. A person below poverty line is not just lack of money, it is an indication of the inability to acquire the basic goods and services necessary for survival with dignity. Poverty is not just lack of money but is a mark of low levels of health and education, poor access to clean water and sanitation, inadequate physical security, lack of voice, and insufficient capacity and opportunity to better one’s life. ​ This incapability​ leads to hopelessness , And in this global world with an plethora of opportunities this hopelessness leads to fear and uncertainty Which fades away the hope of a better future​ . Hence poverty is not just lack of money, it is a ​ multi dimensional social evil.


Furthermore Poverty leads to a ​ devilious “Poverty Trap” which ​ affects both Growth and Development cycle​ . How poverty affects ​ Growth cycle: Low income leads to low saving which in turn leads to low investment which results in low economic growth which ultimately results in low income thus forming a vicious cycle​ , Similarly The development cycle also runs in the opposite direction as Low income leads to low level of education and health care which in turn leads to low level of human capital which results in low productivity which ​ ultimately results in low income thus forming another
vicious cycle​ and thus ​ poverty becomes inevitable and slowly people drown in this brutal cycle​ . Generally poverty is associated with lack of money, measured on the basis as those who live on $1.90 per day or less . ​ In India the poverty line is defined on the basis of monthly spending on food, education, health, electricity and transport. According to this estimate, a ​ person who spends Rs. 27.2 in rural areas and Rs. 33.3 in urban areas a day​ are defined as living below the poverty line. It is regretful that in India, ​ 21.9% ​ of the population lives below the national poverty line in ​ 2011​ . ​ The
Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) found that about ​ 420 million people are considered destitute (People having an extreme lack of basic living standards). Most of them live in South Asia. About ​ 343 million live in India​ .


While on the bright side The ​ Global Multidimensional Poverty Index-2018 released by the UN noted that ​ 271 million people moved out of poverty between 2005-06 and 2015-16 in India. The ​ poverty rate in the country has nearly halved, falling from 55% to 28% over the ten-year period. Still a big part of the population in India is still living Below the Poverty Line. As Poverty is not just lack of money, Hence, ​ Policies which concentrate beyond just increasing the income are the need of the hour ​ as rightly quoted by Amartya Sen (nobel laureate).

“Poverty is the deprivation of opportunity.”


The Government of India has recognised the need for ​ policies that focus not just on increasing income of the people below poverty line, the focus of the policy makers has also ​ shifted on increasing capability of the poor people through expanding opportunities of healthcare, education, skill development and ending gender based and caste based partiality leading to deprivation of opportunities​ . Thus in recent years ​ schemes like National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) ,Beti bachao beti padhao , Skill India mission and Sarva shiksha Abhiyaan and many such policiesl point out that that government wants to increase the capability of the poor people so that they could live a life meaningful to them in long run.

Reincarnation in Hinduism

It’s hard to believe this wide universe that there’s just one chance to measure during a lifetime. There are many controversial issues surrounding the topic of reincarnation. Who created those ideas? Were these ideas created to steer people faraway from their religion?
What is reincarnation? Answer to the present question are often different for various people, but the essential meaning of reincarnation is Life before the life that we live in. Reincarnation may be a select process for the role the person will need to live. A person may reincarnate immediately after death, or could also be assigned to a dimension of life, which may be a plane before heaven, until it’s time for the person’s reincarnation
Hinduism believes in body and soul. Your soul returns to your body after your death. Your status or caste in next life depends on your deeds of the previous life. This is called Reincarnation in Hinduism. According to Hinduism a soul reincarnates again and again on earth till it becomes perfect and reunites with it Source. And, also being has got to live many lives and under go many experiences before it attains perfection and becomes one with the Divine. The Hindu theory of creation suggests that creation begins when the individual souls becomes separated from the undifferentiated One. It continues because the evolution of life and consciousness in matter progresses. During this process a number of souls journey back to God through the transformation of matter or prakriti during which they were hidden. The remaining souls continue their existence and rejoin Him within the end, not through transformation but through a process of great destruction. Thus the good cycle of creation, stretching over many years, involves its logical end.
Once the creative process is switched on, the individual soul hides behind the false personality called jiva, the subtle body and an outer personality called the mind and therefore the body or the ego. The Jiva is made up of the subtle body, the subtle mind and a little bit of discretionary intelligence called buddhi. The ego is formed from the gross human body , the surface consciousness consisting of innumerable desires and impulses. Since the Jiva and therefore the ego haven’t any idea of Truth or reality, they suffer from ignorance and illusion. They give way to illusion and suffer from the delusion of the outer mind. They behave selfishly as if they’re different from the remainder of creation and find yourself with suffering, indulging in acts of self perpetuation.
In order to explain how the effects of past actions of man are preserved in the atman after the death of the body and how these effects produce their fruit in a future rebirth, the Hindu theologians make a distinction between two types of body: the gross body (sthula-sarira) and the subtle body (sukshma-sarira or linga- sarira).9The gross body is that which is visible and tangible, consists of the eternal senses, of organs, etc. The subtle body, instead, isn’t visible nor tangible, and consists of subtle elements, like: buddhi (intelligence), manas (mind), ahamkara (ego), etc. The subtle body encircles the atma as a connection between the soul and the gross body. Every action of man leaves its imprint (sanskara) on the subtle body and remains as a seed which has to mature and produce in due time its proper fruit. While the gross body disintegrates at death, the spirit continues to be in touch with the subtle psychic body which it carries forward. The subtle body together with all the tendencies, merits or effects of karma is said to migrate with the soul (atman) at death. At the top of every life, the human body and therefore the gross mind return to the weather of the world . But the Jiva and therefore the soul survive death. Depending upon the nature of their past deeds, and the number of subtle bodies it has developed, the Jiva either ascends to the heaven or descends into the hell. Hiding the indwelling spirit in its core, the Jiva stays in these worlds till it exhausts the fruits of its good or bad actions. Having learned some new lessons, it then returns to the world again to require another birth. Thus the Jiva undergoes innumerable births and deaths. It becomes sure to the mortal life and therefore the laws of nature. Death provides temporary relief, but exposes the individual Jiva to the danger of falling into greater depths of suffering.
Hinduism speaks of the existence of heavens above and hells below. The former are sun filled, inhabited by gods and innumerable divine souls. The latter are dark worlds (asurya lokas) and populated by all the dark and demonic forces. The individual souls enter these worlds consistent with their deeds. But they are doing not stay there permanently till the top of destruction. They go there basically as a consequence of their actions, either to enjoy or to suffer. In either case they learn the lesson and are available back to earth to start out a replacement earthly life everywhere again.
Thus consistent with Hinduism, life in heaven could also be longer, but still it’s a mortal life only. There, a Jiva may enjoy extreme pleasures, but it might not last for ever. Once its karma is exhausted, the Jiva is thrown back from the heights of heavenly glory into the turmoil of unstable earthly life. As the soul moves from one body to a different , it carries forward something along side it, which is nothing but what it’s accumulated performing various deeds. This can be thought of as a worldwide account that every soul is related to , regardless of the place it’s in currently. This account would have both the logs of excellent and bad deeds it performed almost like the credit and liabilities. This account is what’s called karma.

How to lose your hair in 10 days.

No, No, this is not a click bait. And no this is not sponsored by Kesh King.

Have you noticed that you have been losing a lot of hair recently. Well some can say it’s due to the changing weather, but don’t you think we are also forgetting a very generous contributor to this problem.

Yes I’m talking about stress. I know, such a cliched topic right. Stress. Sounds so normal. You guys would be like , ‘everyone has stress, nothing new about it’. But man, what a sad statement this is. The fact that everyone is going through some tough situation , is actually worrisome , don’t you think . Whether due to the pandemic, or some personal issues, or work stress . And the worst of them all is stressing over nothing, you know when everything is going well, and you begin to wonder, well , this ain’t right. I stress about stress before there’s even stress to stress about. What sort of sorcery is that!

Pin on Cartoons about Stress

The poor is stressing over money , so are the rich. Student is worried about her grades and the graduate is worried about getting a job. Many of us are stressed due to some financial difficulties and some due to personal or family issues. Many of us are losing sleep, and some of us are losing their hair ( yup, sacrificed a whole lot ). The worst thing about stress is that it’s involuntary. You often can’t help but fall into this trap. Having no control over things is both a boon and a bane. When you have the control , you can’t help but stress over how to solve an issue. When you don’t , you consider yourself completely helpless, and often worthless.

This is where the self destruction begins. Stressing over things makes you question your abilities, insecurities, and often leads you on to this dark path, one would never dare to walk on. How to come out of this ? How to tell yourself that stress , to a certain extent is okay, but when exceeds a certain limit, is lethal.

  1. Please, please make yourself a priority. I cannot stress this enough , that YOU matter the most. That’s it.
  2. Take a sheet of paper, and write down the things that are stressing you out. Think about the possible solutions you can come up for them. Cannot come up with a solution? Then buddy, try and move on. Let’s leave some things in the hands of time.
  3. Some things take time, don’t rush it.
  4. Trust your journey. You’ve reached till here, thank yourself and appreciate yourself.
  5. Dance it out . Yes this works. Don’t tell me that dancing to the tunes of Ishq tera tadpave ( what an irony ! ) or any other banger doesn’t make you happy. P.S. if you haven’t heard the song, just give it a shot.
  6. Start breathing. I mean I know everybody breathes, but this time feel it. And be thankful for it.
  7. Please talk to someone . A friend, therapist anyone. It might not help you get a solution, but at least will assure you that you’re not alone.

So where does this end ? The same place it began, in that beautiful mind of yours.

Turns out, it was some what of a click bait right . But hey, it worked 🙂
