  Air Pollution in India is a serious health issue. In the Northern part of the country, it increases even more around the festival of Diwali, making it a cause of great concern for the government (sadly not the people). The time between October 15 and November 15 is considered critical for majorly Delhi-NCR's air quality due to certain reasons. REASONS  - ⇨ STUBBLE BURNING - In short, the production of crops has also increased the agricultural waste and generation of husk. Farmers usually gather the husk and put them on fire as it is the easiest way to dump it. However, doing so creates a serious issue that is directly linked to our environment. A large number of toxic gases are emitted into our atmosphere. The toxic gases become the cause of numerous health issues. Studies have shown that Stubble Burning has caused great deterioration in the air quality of Punjab and Haryana (primarily). ⇨ WEATHER PATTERNS -  The continuous increase in anthropogenic emissions of carbo...

    " The true teachers are those who help us think for ourselves .-   Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan   Do you remember who was your very first teacher???? Before answering this question, let us know who is a teacher? Etymologically, a Teacher is a person who helps you to learn.  Now, coming back to the question i.e. your very first teacher. If we contemplate, we'll find that the first person(s) to teach us anything were our Parents . It was them who taught us how to eat, drink, sit, talk, walk, jump,run, play and everything that they could. Our parents are the ones who selflessly work round the clock for us, to provide us warmth, care and protection.  But what do they do??? We all know what our parents have done and still do for us. Have you ever seen a baby taking its first step? Just notice his/her parents. They are the most happiest when they see their child walking for the first time. It is them who teach everything from the start. They 'teach' us how ...

Language is a type of expression or in a defined way, it is the method of humans communication in a conversational way. It can be oral or written as the only thing that matters that it should convey your thoughts. But, are we using our language in a way we wanted to use or in a way people wanted us to use? In this "Vogue" world we all just focus on using foreign languages as we think that they make us "elegant" and "millennium". This need to being "millennium" has kept us away from our culture of speaking " HINDI" the mother tongue of India. Once Nelson Mandela had said that- " If you talk to man in a language he understands,  that goes to his head; If you talk to him in his language ,  that goes to his heart." Importance of mother tongue - Well, all this is a theoretical based concept on the importance of mother tongue. But my question is that  can you imagine a day without you speaking HINDI? The answer might be yes for mo...

" Success in life does not necessarily begin with academic success."                                                                    - Robert Sternberg Let me tell you, hardly anyone follows this quote.  One of the main barriers to true education in India is the exaggerated emphasis put on 'examination results'. It is almost like a worship of good "Marks". Like I remember, in class X, after attempting my question paper I used to first of all count my marks at least three times; when my results were coming out I used to pray to God every night before sleeping. There is no problem in praying to God but the problem is in the fear; I had the typical fear of getting extremely low marks or lower than my expectations. It was after my X that I realized, worshipping Exam results has expelled the true divine, Education, ...

  "Your calm mind is the ultimate weapon against your challenges."                                                                                              - Bryant McGill   Medical science says that when there is no disease , what remains is Health.  This is a deception not a definition. I mean, how can you define health  in relation to disease ? It is like defining a flower in relation to a thorn; it is like defining life in relation to death' or light in relation to darkness. Really!! Health  is only understood from the innermost being of man, from where his soul is. ✯ Clearing the basic concept of Meditation: Mediation isn't about becoming a different person, a new person, or even a better person.
