Nobel Peace Prize 2011 - Ms. Ellen Sirleaf


Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (Born 29 Oct 1938), age 79, is a Liberian politician, and Nobel Peace Prize 2011 winner. She is 24th and current President of Liberia since 2006.

Ellen is often referred as "Iron Lady of Liberia" for her strong will and political persistence, and is Africa's first democratically elected female leader. Her political path has not been an easy one and she was imprisoned in 1980's for criticizing government policies in Liberia.



In her book, This Child will be great, she writes - If asked to describe my homeland in one sentence, I may say something like this: Liberia is a wonderful, beautiful, mixed up country, struggling mightily to find itself.

Given more space, however, I would certainly elaborate.

Liberia is some 43,000 square miles of lush, well-watered land on the bulge of West Africa, a country slightly larger than the state of Ohio, a lilliputian nation with a giant history. It has a population of 3.5 million people from some sixteen ethnic groups speaking some sixteen indigenous languages plus English. It has never known hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, droughts, or other natural disasters, only the occasional flood and the more frequent havoc wreaked by man. Liberia is complicated. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, Liberia is a conundrum wrapped in complexity and stuffed inside a paradox. Then again, it was born that way.

In 2011 - She won Nobel Peace Prize for her relentless efforts to bring peace, prosperity and progress for Liberia.

To know more about this great lady, please Google and YouTube her.

Telepathy - A technical possibilty


Article - Sudhir Pai

TELEPATHY.
For many years, people were struggling and researching on ESP (Extra sensory perception) phenomenon.

But thanks to Mark Zuckerberg, ESP has become a technical possibility with FaceBook.


READ MINDS
Just go through last 25 posts of a person and we can easily predict future behaviour. And FB can access anyone's mind.

COLLECTIVE HYPNOTISM
Through mass posting and trending hashtags, social media can actually hypnotize an individual or group.

THOUGHT TRANSFER
FB messenger and tagging can help a person to transfer thought to an individual or group.

As I believe - Let's positively use this technology for upliftment of consciousness and collective evolution, growth and prosperity. And many such technology awaits humanity and we should responsibly use it for collective growth, peace, prosperity and happiness !

How to deal with a difficult boss?



Article - Sudhir Pai

Are you one of those, who feel that your boss is very difficult to handle? You do everything in best possible way, work really hard but your boss is never happy and many times shouts at you or insults you in front of other colleagues.

Chill. Take a cup of warm or cold coffee and keep reading below article. We are going to discuss today how to manage and deal with difficult boss?

Let's start.


Observe your boss for a few days with a neutral frame of mind. Regular meditation can help you to develop a cool and neutral mindset. Understand your boss and his or her priorities. Listen to what he or she says very carefully. Try to listen to what is unsaid.

Try to understand that your boss may be a very good person in personal life but targets and deadlines can put huge pressure on him or her and that work pressure can get transferred down on subordinates.

Art of managing boss is more often art of managing the pressure downloaded by the boss. And to manage the pressure, one needs to be in cool frame of mind. Trust me folks, regular deep breathing and meditation helps to develop this cool mind.


Documentation plays an important role in managing boss's expectations. During meetings with our superiors, make a note of everything in bulleted points. After meeting, email minutes of meeting to your boss and colleagues to ensure whole team is on same page. and get assign off from your boss. On regular intervals, send him status of work allotted with deadlines and tasks completed. This will ensure, that boss is updated on regular basis of work status. Also ask for feedback and inputs from boss about the progress of work.

Open and regular communication is the way to develop and strengthen relationship with your boss and colleagues.

I hope this article has helped you to get clarity on How to deal with difficult boss?

Why Tulsi (Holy Basil) is planted at entrance of house?


Article : Sudhir Pai

As a child, I was fascinated with lot of things I observed around me. Some traditions were faith. Some were blind faith. And yet another had some scientific thinking.

I always used to wonder, why Tulsi (Holy Basil) is planted at entrance and worshipped. And I used to ask this question to lot of people and my elders and each one of them had their own version of story as they heard from their elders and friends.

But I was looking for a more scientific explantion until I met an engineer who had more interest in Ayurveda and Indian tradition and I felt his explanation was closest which answered my logical mind.

He first told me benefits of Tulsi plant and leaves which are as follows:

1) Tulsi plant emits oxygen in abundance.
2) Fights cancer.
3) Improves immunity.
4) Fights bacteria and viruses.
5) Useful in cold and cough.

Tulsi leaves can be boiled with tea and milk and drink for healthier life.

You can google and youtube for more information.

Bottom line - Tulsi plant at entrance was a reminder to take (eat tulsi leaves) daily dose of immunity before you go for outdoor work, so that you always remain immune to external harmful viruses and stay healthy.

So, eat tulsi leaves for a good health.

What is courage?


To accept the challenge of unknown inspite of all fear and insecurities and work towards it is courage.

Courage is the ability to come out of logic and reasoning of past experiences, challenge status quo, try out something new, something different and emerge out victorious. Courage is not the absence of fear. Infact, it is acknowledging the presence of fear, accepting fear and overcoming it.

It is infact, the ability to let go of our past experiences and venture out in the unknown. Courage is not essentially positive thinking but more of possibility thinking. Positive thinking may help to reduce fear, but possibility thinking will help us to overcome future, think of innovative solutions and ultimately emerge out as winner in life.

Courage is the self-affirmation of being inspite of the fact of non-being. It is an act of asserting our inner powers and strength over our weakness.

When I first decided to quit job and start something on my own, I had lot of fear about future, about financial burden and how I will manage my career. It took almost 5 years to fight with my fear and ultimately I quit my job and started my consultancy business.

I wrote 2 books, first one was Think Like A Winner, which has proven new age techniques of how to develop a winning mindset. and second one is Live Your Dreams, about those 10 ordinary real life people who became extra ordinary because they followed their heart and pursued their dreams.

First Dancing Superstar - A legend called Bhagwan Dada


Article By - Sudhir Pai

Today as I woke upto chirping birds and monsoon rains looking out of my window at dark skies and sipping my early morning coffee, a beautiful song was been played on FM radio (Bholi Surat Dil Ke Khote).

And my mind travelled back in 1950s Bombay.

Bhagwan Dada (Born 1913) was best know for his social film Albela (1951) and the hit song "Shola Jo Bhadke"

Bhagwan Dada was born as Bhagwan Abaji Palav in Sindhudurg, Maharashtra. he was son of textile mill worker but even as a child always had big dreams of entering in film industry.


Starting with small roles and low budget film, he hit the jackpot in 1951 by producing and acting in Film called Albela.

After that, unfortumately, he did not give any hit films and had to sell his 25 rooms sea facing bungalow and live last days of his life in complete poverty and 1 room kitchen in Dadar.


To know more about Bhagwan Dada, google him, YouTube him.

Life of Radhanath Swami


Radhanath Swami (Richard Slavin) was born in comforts of Chicago (USA). As a teenager, he embarked on a fascinating journey of hitch-hiking the world in search of self discovery and spirituality that ultimately led him to join ISKCON (International Society of Krishna Consciousness)


During 1960s and 1970s, there was a general disillusionment amongst European and American youth about society and materialistic pleasure and hippie movement started where unfortunately many young folks got trapped in drugs, rock and roll and sex.

 


Something similar was happening to Richard Slavin. He was young. He was confused. And he left home, leaving behind his family and comforts of US life and started spiritual journey.

Growing up in Chicago, he was restless and had plenty reason to be unhappy. Civil unrest, Vietnam war and general aversion to trappings of material life.

He wanted to be free. He wanted to experience freedom and liberation.

In his book, The Journey Home, he gives colourful details of his spiritual journey from Chichago suburubs to caves of Himalayas. he gives an intimate account of the steps to self-awareness and also a penetrating glimpse various mystic traditions across the world like Arabia, Rome, Greek and finally he lands into India.



His spiritual journey ends with becoming an ISKCON sanyasi and now heads the organization and run food program for underpriviledged kids by name of Akshay Patra where around 1.6 million school kids are fed with nutritious meals on daily basis.

Hare Krishna !

Who is Rahul Dubey?


His name is Rahul Dubey and his dream is to build schools in every remote area of India, in all those small inaccessible parts where good education is only a dream for children and parents.

Growing up in a family of army, and then living in various cities of India and studying in good schools, he always wondered whether village children go this kind of quality education.

Rahul was working with ALFA as a volunteer and landed up in a small village, Karawara, Udaipur district, Rajasthan. He was unable to understand the local language but after staying there for 6 months, he realized the problems faced by villagers and children and after lot of soul searching decided to do something for them and people like them across India.

This is how his idea came into action with his unique school VILLAGE SPIRIT ACADEMY for rural kids run by rural youth where there is unique blend of tradional value with modern education.

Rahul is running this project on almost zero bank balance. He is avid movie buff, but has not seen a single movie in last 5 years.

Rahul has big plans to start such kind of schools in every remote part of India. Please google and youtube him for more details.

Farmer who became Teacher



70-year-old Keshav Saran began his career as a teacher in the Adult Education Centre of Kharadia village. Currently, 1,320 students are enrolled in the school, including 670 girls. Keshav who was a farmer was elected as the Pradhan of his village in 1988. Extremely dedicated towards the development of his village, he did not leave any stone unturned to reach officers who could help get all the amenities. However, he realized that had he been as educated as those officers, he would be able to accomplish a lot more. It became clear to him that education meant power.

He started off with five or six children but the word of mouth popularised the classes and within a span of few months, the strength of his class grew to 150. Encouraged by the response, he developed the 'chaupal' classes into a formal school, built on his 4 acres of agricultural land in 1975 which also received a junior high school recognition.
His son and daughter, both qualified teachers, were also involved in the initiative. With 21 other teaching staff members, the school received recognition of an inter college in 2009.
As a tribute to the long years of Saran's struggle and dedication, it was named Keshav Inter College.
Keshav’s son, Arun Kumar, and his daughter-in-law, Krishna, also help him run the college. The school has 21 teaching and staff members but the Sarans still charge a minimal fee to the students.

Goonj - Anshu Gupta



Article - Sudhir Pai

Anshu Gupta is an Indian social entrepreneur who founded Goonj, a Delhi-based non-governmental organisation that positions under-utilised clothes from urban areas to rural areas. He won Ramon Magsaysay Award in 2015 for his genuine effort of clothing the poor via his NGO Goonj.

After completing his studies he joined corporate sector. But was completely disillusioned by the rat race and selfish attitude. He wanted to give back something to the society. So ultimately in 1998, he left Escorts as Manager, Corporate Communication in 1998 to work full time on his idea of social work.

Goonj, his dream for many years, was set up in the same year. From collecting clothes from his own house and friends and then distributing them on the roads in the chilly winter nights of Delhi, his dream has come a long way.

Under Goonj's flagship 'Cloth for Work' initiative village communities across India work on their own issues and get the urban clothes and materials as a reward for their efforts.

Anshu was quoted saying - We promote the idea of cloth-for-work where people who do work are rewarded with material. There is a sense of dignity in this.

Roger Bannister: The Four Minute Mile


Sir Roger Bannister, is the first person to run 1 mile before 4 minutes. Till 1954, sports psychologists, doctors and atheletes believed that running 1 mile under 4 minutes is physically and psychologically not possible for any human.

And Sir Roger Bannister, decided to challenge this status quo. He decided to challenge this orthodox belief structure. He was determined to break this mental limitation.

He was born in ordinary middle class, but had tremendous passion for running.

When every other athlete in world was working on physical stamina and technique. Roger Bannister started focussing on developing mental and spiritual strength with mind power techniques like affirmations and visualization along with physical strength and stamina.

And on 6th May 1954, Roger did the impossible. He actually ran 1 mile in 3 min 59 seconds at Olympics.

And in next 1 year 25 more athletes could do the same.

Roger Bannister proved to the world that barriers and self limiting beliefs exist only in minds. We need to break them first.

Madhav Chavan ( Founder - Pratham )


Let us meet an Amazing Indian - Madhav Chavan.

Madhav Chavan is a social activist and entrepreneur. He is the co-founder and CEO of the educational non-profit, Pratham.

Pratham is an innovative learning organization created to improve the quality of education in India. As one of the largest non-governmental organizations in the country, Pratham focusses on high-quality, low-cost education system for children in the slums of Mumbai.

What one is trained to do, what one plans to do, and what one actually ends up doing can be radically different and Madhav Chavan's life is shining example of that. After spending 8 years in USA in late 1970s, Chavan was drawn back to India for a bigger and nobler vision in field of education.

He started teaching at the University of Mumbai's Department of Chemical Technology and at same time got involved in imparting education to slum children.



Over a period of time Madhav Chavan decided to quit teaching profession at University and get full time with his NGO work. He partnered with UNICEF and at around same time he also got support from big names in Indian industry like ex-banker and philantrophist Narayanan Vaghul. The Birlas, the Piramals, and Reliance all did their bit.

And Pratham was born. And as of today Pratham is spreading light of knowledge in underpriviledged society.
