Stop littering for the sake of Mot

There are four teachers in a student life. The first and foremost one is the nature; the second is the society and the third and forth are parents and teachers respectively. These are four pillars in a student’s life for paramount success. A child after birth is like clay in the potter’s hand. Just as a potter gives a desired shape using clay in his hands, so does a child become what their parents and teachers desire to be.

Let’s not forget this famous saying written in bold in most primary institution in India “nature is our real wealth, you one’s home is the first school and god gives life, but an ideal teacher leads a child on the right path in life. It is true that it is a teacher who guides and shapers personality in child. Now a teacher’s responsibility does not end with mere teaching the child math, literature or science, but his true responsibility lies in moulding and re-moulding a child’s life towards perfection.

A child often scans his teacher as a role model and adopts himself to his teacher’s style. It is under skillful tutoring of the teacher that flourishes and blooms. We should not forge “a teacher leads to a well developed level of wit an culture for promising tomorrow. So it is obvious that education is one of the greatest services provided by teacher that is vital for anything. So just teaching should not be the teacher’s profession, it should be passion.

Every adult that has a child needs to understand the importance of parent involvement in education too. The affects of parent involvement extend far beyond the walls of the classroom.  The more the parents get involved with a child’s life the better is powerful achievement. Parents should understand that “the home is the first and most important school for child to stands or it is a tool where a student gets involved to be more mature himself. No doubt, those successful students come from homes where the parent provides structure, support and guidance.

Moral & ethics are probably the most important ingredients in a student’s life, which are very inspired by parents. It helps a child to be a good & responsible citizen for the country. Effective parents emerge themselves as allies in discovery of the inner aptitude of their child.  They offer input, ideas and suggests but do not always try to control the direction or goals. Wise parents remember their own experience and realize that life is not a straight line. As they mean, so they learn and can change their direction. Therefore, parents have to play an important role in children’s life to shape their destiny to have a healthy, wealthy and affluent nation.

Money

Now a day’s many people thinks Money is not everything but one thing in life. Almost all material things here on earth can be bought with money. Money is a medium of exchange to acquire any services or material things that we want or need. For many people, money is everything. They believe that having a lot of money can bring them to the satisfaction of which they have dreamed. That's how powerful money is. It can control the mind of an individual. Many people, because of their obsession to have more money will do anything, even if they have to transfigure people into objects to acquire what they really want. That is why in our economy today, the rich become richer, and the poor become poorer. How sad it is to know that kind of reality. Money can be acquired in many ways. Most people will work to earn money. Some will create a business to accumulate and increase the amount of money they have. In moments of desperation, most people would pawn their jewelry and other belongings to obtain instant money. Some of them would sell their properties and even their structured settlements in order for them to have available cash. The worst thing of all is that a person would risk his own life and dignity by doing a criminal act only to have money. How ironic it is. They think of money as everything to their lives, but they're wrong, absolutely wrong. The reality that we should embrace is that we need money, but it does not follow that money is the only reason of our existence here on earth. Money is important, but it is not everything. There are many factors that can create fulfillment here on earth, not money alone. They are our family, our friends, and even our new acquaintances. They can help us grow and reach our goals. Remember that money is only a material thing. It is created for our convenience, but it should be used for good. It is created for us to control; it is not made to control us. Imagine a person has enough money to buy anything and everything that he wants, but can you imagine that with only that resource that such a person could be truly happy and fulfilled? Money is good but loving it makes it bad. We can work hard to earn more money. We can sell our properties and our other belongings to have money in emergencies. Remember, we should work not only for the reason of receiving but also for the reason of giving. Money is indeed important, but it is not everything.  There is Love, friendship, loyalty, and lots of things that don't rely on money.  Absolutely...money cannot buy the important things in life such as love, joy, health, etc... There are many wealthy people who are unhappy and searching for meaning in their life. Just look at the many "rich and famous" in Hollywood who cannot find happiness and instead end up overdosing on drugs/alcohol. Money is not everything in life. There are certain other things which are more important and serious than money. Even a millionaire is not contented and happy and he has his share of problems too. People are racing with each other to become richer and successful day by day and due to this they have become self centered and materialistic. So.............

Money can buy a house

but not a home.

Money can buy a bed

but not sleep.

Money can buy a clock

but not time.

Money can buy a book

but not knowledge.

Money can buy food

but not an appetite.

Money can buy position

but not respect.

Money can buy blood

but not life.

Money can buy medicine

but not health.

Money can buy sex

but not love.

Money can buy insurance

but not safety.

Money can buy idols

but not luck.

So, Money is not everything.

10 Avtar

Lord Vishnu represents the aspect of the Supreme Reality that preserves and sustains the universe. Although there are variations in images and pictures of Lord Vishnu, He is generally symbolized by a human body with four arms. In His hands He carries a conch (shankha), a mace (gada), and discus (chakra). He wears a crown, two earrings, a garland (mala) of flowers, and a gem around the neck. He has a blue body and wears yellow clothes. The Lord is shown standing on a thousand-headed snake (named Shesha Nag), and the snake stands with its hoods open over the head of the Lord.

The four arms indicate Lord's omnipresence and omnipotence. The two front arms signify the lord's activity in the physical world and the two back arms signify His activity in the spiritual world. The right side of the body represents the creative activities of the mind and the intellect. The left side symbolizes the activities of the heart; that is, love, kindness, and compassion.

A conch in the upper left hand indicates that the Lord communicates with His devotees with love and understanding. When blowing His conch, He reminds his devotes to live in this world with kindness and compassion towards all living beings. A chakra in His upper right hand conveys the idea that the Lord uses this weapon to protect His devotees from evil. The mace denotes energy and a mace in the Lord's left lower hand signifies that He sustains the manifest world by the energy that He holds in Himself. His front right hand is depicted bestowing grace on His devotees.

The snake denotes the mind and the thousand heads of the snake signify innumerable desires and passions of an individual. Just as a snake destroys its victim by its venom, an uncontrolled mind destroys the world by the venom of its possessiveness. The Lord has controlled all desires, and this is symbolized by showing Him seated on the two coils of the snake. When a sincere devotee of the Lord controls his desires, the Lord fulfills the devotee's genuine desires and helps him on his path.

The blue sky in the background of the Lord suggests that He pervades the entire universe. The blue color symbolizes infinity. The blue body of the Lord signifies that He has infinite attributes. He is nameless, formless, and immeasurable. The color yellow is associated with earthly existence and the yellow clothes of the Lord signify that He incarnates Himself on this earth to uphold righteousness and destroy evil and unrighteousness.

A flower garland around the Lord's neck is a symbol of the devotee's adoration for the Lord. A gem decorating His neck signifies that the Lord fulfills all genuine desires of His devotees and provides for their needs. The crown is a symbol of the Lord's supreme power and authority. The two earrings signify the dual nature of creation, such as knowledge and ignorance, happiness and unhappiness, and pleasure and pain.

The worship of Lord Vishnu is very popular among Hindus, especially among the followers of the Vaishnava tradition (Vaishnavism). He is the second member of the Hindu Trinity, with Lord Brahma and Lord Shiva as the other two. Lord Vishnu is also known by other names, such as Vasudeva and Narayana. The following ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu are described in Hindu mythology and are popular among Hindus. These incarnations reveal the help rendered by God during various stages of human evolution. As shown below, the first two incarnations are in the animal form, the third one is half-human and half-animal, and the fourth and the subsequent ones are all in human form. These incarnations relate to human evolution from aquatic life to human life, and are consistent with the modern theory of evolution suggested by science:

Matsya (fish)---saves Sage Manu from floods and recovers the Vedas from demons.

Kurma (tortoise)---sustains the earth on his back.

Varaha (boar)---brings the earth back from the bottom of the ocean where it was dragged down by a demon, known as Hiranyaksha; Varaha kills the demon.

Narasimha (man-lion)---kills the demon King Hiranyakashipu, who was planning to kill his own son, a devotee of Lord Vishnu.

Vamana (dwarf)---the first human incarnation of the Lord, kills the demon King Mahabhali, who had deprived the gods of their possessions.

Parasurama (the warrior with an axe)---saves Brahmins from the tyranny of the arrogant Kshatriyas.

Rama---kills Ravana, the demon king of Lanka.

Sri Krishna---the most popular incarnation; Krishna's contributions throughout his life include the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna.

Buddha---Hindus consider Buddha as an incarnation of Lord Vishnu and accept his teachings, but do not directly worship him.

Kalkin (a man on a white horse)---this incarnation is yet to come and will mark the end of all evil in the world.

A devotee is in a relationship with god in one of the five different ways.

1. One may be a devotee in a passive state.
2. One may be a devotee in a active state.
3. One may be a devotee as a friend.
4. One may be a devotee as a parent.
5. One may be a devotee as a conjugal lover.

Shri Krishna Says in Bhavgad Gita

• He who sees me everywhere (and in everything) and everything in me - Such a person is not lost to me nor I am lost to him.
• Fix your mind on me, make offerings to me and I will liberate you of all obstacles.
• Remembering me, you shall overcome all difficulties through my grace. However, if you will not heed me in yourself, nothing will avail you.

We can realize god by constantly thinking of him. No matter what the attitude towards him may be. "We may love him as a parent, as our child, as our beloved or even our friends." Contemplate him as our creator, protector and the final abode to where we will return. Open your heart and pray to him. He cannot sit silent and unmoved when somebody calls him like that............... Trials and difficulties are bound to come in our way to test our strength. We should stand adamant. The invisible hand of god gives protection. A true devotee, offers himself to lord when he prays. Prayer is a real surrender. There is nothing to ask, nothing to demand. Sri Krishna says in Bhagvat Gita "Always think of me, become my devotee, worship me and offer you homage unto me thus you will come to me without fail. Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reaction. Do not fear."

The lord says "Call on me; I will answer your prayer."You may not believe in god, be afraid of him because man does what he can and god what he will. God loves everyone equally. He is engaged in the welfare of all. He cannot bear to see anyone suffer, and he considers anyone's pain and suffering like his own. He is all-powerful. Many devotees have overcome tremendous obstacles and hardships by remembering his name. A man without faith is like a drop thrown out of the ocean, which is bound to perish. However, he who has achieved faith on god wants nothing. When the oven of mind is made turbulent by the winds of desires, It cannot reflect god and god vision. God is only seen when the mind is tranquil. In life, the supreme umpire is god. We must have full faith on him and surrender to his decision. Deep faith can perform miracles. You can do very little with faith but you can do nothing without it. Your faith is what you believe, not what you know. Take shelter in him, and he shall take care of everything. You may not believe in god, be afraid of him because man does what he can and god what he will.
