This day in History

-
4th June, 1957. E.M.Foster demonstrated the masterpiece to the world. A passage to India, a book that was listed as 'All time 100 novels' by times magazine. He wrote it to share experiences of his visit to India.

A well set novel that potrays 'Indianess', 'class discrimination', 'racism', 'romance', 'betrayal', 'superiority'. A passage to India, that boils up history of britishers on indian land. He has forged a relationship between a british school teacher and a muslim doctor which is still unique and shows newness when the novel is read. The traditional waves that flows reaches to the end where Aziz the physician declares that he and Fielding cannot be friends till the time India attends its independence.

Respect- as a word is quite famous in the aura of indians. The belief of been seen as a disrespectedly is a real murder of thier inner self.

Today aproaching as 100 years of its composition, is 'dated' as the finest write up.

This was the downfall of the kingdom and healthy wealthy people. They worshipped lord Vitthal. Another story that says,in ancient times, war took place between Deities and Demons. Mrudumanya, son of demon Kumbha  won the boon of immortality from Deity Shiva through penance. As a result, he became unconquerable for Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv. Fearing h...

Why is it necessary to remember God?

  WHY IS IT NECESSARY TO REMEMBER GOD? Now, supposing that God invariably awards the frui t of our actions according as they are good or bad, and if he cannot reduce or enhance it, why should we remember him? Let us now consider this question. In the first place, remembrance of God is a principal item of worship; is a very noble act and a royal road to spiritual advancement; nay, it tops all spiritual practices. By practicing this we feel the urge for it more and more and the result is that we actually remember God more and more so that our mind gets purified and the supreme light of divine wisdom begins to be reflected thereon. The fire of wisdom burns away the stock of sancita Karmas and thus destroys the seed of rebirth. That is why worship of God is supremely necessary. The next reason why we should worship God is that this constitutes the paramount duty of our life. People serve their parents as a matter of duty. Naturally, therefore it is our foremost and paramount duty t...
