SUPERSTITION

months ago, in news paper, there was a news that one Baba was arrested because he deceived a  person for one lakh by pretending that he knew the ritual to get treasure hidden underground. Sometimes this lust to get so much wealth is so intense, that such persons are ready to kill child and victimise him. Sometimes we listen  that completion of any construction is requiring human victim. Many times, such requirement is fulfilled and such crime is suppressed by every concerned person. Such crimes occur, because it is the fact that in our society there are superstitions.
          In Fact there is great difference in belief and blind- belief, means in faith and superstition. Beliefs or faith in God is always good. Only on that faith many people face difficult problems in their lives. Many times it increases power of mind. But if any person believes on superstition blindly, many times he has to get stuck in serious problems.
           There are many humourous superstitions in our surroundings. For example,if we are going for some important work, and a cat crosses our way,it is believed that  we will not get success in that work. Another superstition is that on Ganesh chaturthi, if anyone will look at moon, in future he will have to face false blame of theft there is a myth relating to this belief. But the solution to save from this blame is more humorous, which hasn't any base, nor there is any logical reason. The solution is believed that the person looking at moon on that day should throw pebbles on the roof of tins of neighbours. Again if a crow is shouting in your courtyard, there will be guests in your house. We can make a huge list of such humourous superstitions. In many advanced countries also such humourous superstitions are in existence.  For example,in Ireland and Scotland, seeing a single magpie is supposed bad but two or more is fine. According to Russian, whistling in and at the sun are both ill-advised. According to the Hungarians and Russians, sitting at the corner of the table is bad luck. So this list also can be very huge. After all, superstition is a question of everyone's faith and everyone's experience. Again everyone has freedom and fundamental right to believe or not to believe. So we can't  mock them. Only everyone should take care that his own beliefs should not hurt others.

TRIBUTE---(5)

  After my graduation, there was a gap of ten years in my education. During these ten years, I got married and I wanted to settle in my in-laws, moreover after my marriage, I had two issues. So, it was necessary for me, to give full time for my family. Yet, without any planning or not with any purpose, however,I started social work. In this new field, there was one ideal person--Dalal Madam. Infact, I entered in social work only because of this Dalal Madam. She always guided me and always helped me in my social work. We found a private primary school, as well as, we worked together in our Mahila-Mandal for many years. So, in my life, Dalal Madam became a Guru, guide as well as my close friend also.      After this gap of ten years, we, means I and my husband decided for my further education. I wanted to become a lawyer, my husband also liked it, he encouraged me,yet I had no confidence about my capacity. So I was hesitating and avoiding to take admission in law college. At that ti

JAGO GRAHAK JAGO

Today is “Jagtik Grahak Din”. So all consumers, wish you that in coming year , not a single seller should deceive you. Now a day, govt. is trying to aware the consumers by the advertisement” Jago Grahak Jago”. But there is a doubt in my mind whether the consumer is really slept? Or is he pretending to be slept?Because this consumer when goes to market to buy coriander or a coconut, he enquires the price at 3 - 4 vendors,shakes the coconut 3 - 4 times before purchasing and warns the vendor that he will replace the coconut if it will not be good after breaking open. In newspaper, many times there is a news that a cheater, pretending to polish gold jewellery, deceived someone. Again many times, there is news in newspaper about various bogus schemes. In such bogus schemes, there are very attractive lures promised by the seller. Even a man of common sense, will understand that in this world, there can't be a single business -man,who will be running his shop for loss. Yet, every day ,

HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY

Hallo friends! Today is Women's day. Many persons believe that woman is God's mysterious creation. So woman is very difficult to understand. So in our society there are contradictory views about the woman. Some persons consider her as gateway of hell. According to them, she is the reason of many quarrels and battles. There was battle between Ram and Ravan,Kaurav and Pandavas only because of woman. In many houses, there are quarrels between two brothers only because of their wives. So they treat her as chapple, which should be suppressed under feet. Now and then, such persons beat her for very small reason. They think that after doing sins in the lives of 28 Yug,the human being gets woman's life,so now she must expiate all sins.              On other hand, some persons consider her as  facsimile of Goddess,Adishakti,Adimaya,Gruhalaxmi. So such persons think that woman is worshipable . But in such circumstances, unknowingly they impose so many expectations on her. Accord
