VIRTUOUS VICE

Every one knows that this is nature’s circle that after summer there is rainy season and after it there is winter. We also know that all these three seasons are very necessary for all living beings on the earth. Yet when the heat is extreme in summer, there are some deaths of living beings. Again in rainy season , when there is extreme rain, the flood can carries away whole town. In winter also when there is extreme cold, there is loss of life of some living beings.  In short, I want to say that even though all three seasons are initially necessary, their execiveness spoil their virtues. Similarly, in human being also if any virtue is extreme, it becomes vice. We can call it a virtuous vice.
         Infact, saving money is a virtue. Saving a penny is gaining money. But in our surroundings, we see some persons with exessive quantity of this virtue. I have seen a much rich person who had declined to change the tube of gas, even suggested by authorised person, only to save money. Such persons never help or donate anyone if they are not getting any benifit in return. Even such persons being economically sound, stinct in the medical treatment of their family members. Such persons, from morning to night, are thinking about only to save money. Here I am not speaking about the persons who are really poor and to behave so miserly is their helplessness.
        A virtuous person believes in goodness of other persons. But exessively believing on every person is a vice. Many persons, even his close friends and relatives also easily deceive such person. Whether it is good? In our surroundings we can see so many examples of such excessive virtues of all types. So in short,a virtue is virtue till it is used in proper proportion. It’s excessive use changes it in vice.

Colours of the days

Yesterday,I met our family friend -a retired person- and as formality, I asked him that how he was, he started to complain about his retired life. His main complaint was that for him now every day was similar to another,no change, no zest. Even on festival also except for some time, the remaining day was very dull for him. While speaking, he referred that after retirement, his all days are of grey colour,and yes, I also agreed with him on the point that days also have colours and various shades.                       Even though grammatically,a day is a concept and so it has no colour, no shape,no size. Again logically, day after day comes and it makes a week, month,a year and our life goes on. So a day doesn't differ from other days. Yet practically we have experience that if on a day, the climate is cloudy for the whole day, everyone feels dull, and as grey colour is symbol o...

PURITY

  Even though, adulteration is crime, now a day, there is adulteration in almost every thing. There is adulteration in eatables like oil, ghee, mustard, turmeric, chilli powder, pepper, salt, honey, saffron, pulses,panir, ice-cream. There are chemicals sprinkled on vegetables to look fresh. Many times, fruits are rippen with the help of chemicals. Many times, apples are coated with wax to look attractive and fresh. Many times, watermelons are injected with chemicals to be sweet and red. In farms the farmers are using so much fertilizer, that it is affecting the crops and that crop is becoming injurious for health. In gold and silver jewelry, there can be adulteration of  alloyed metal. If we become ill because of the adulteration,and we take medicine, there is adulteration in medicine also. In short, today, purity has become rare.       This purity hasn't become rare only in eatables and other things, but also in mankind's relationship. So ma...

SUCCESS MANTRAS--(2)

For success, there can't be only a single mantra, but when  there is mixture of many success mantras in proper proportion, that person can be a successful person.  Every day, we listen and see many examples of adulteration in market and so we don't trust easily any company or any businessman. So for them means for the company and the businessman, it's very important and difficult to achieve the trust of consumers.
