What are your Priorities?

FW:
A time management guru was speaking to a group of type "A" personalities. He placed a wide-mouth gallon jar on the table in front of him. Next to the jar was a collection of fist-sized rocks. He carefully filled the jar with the big rocks, until he could fit no more.

He asked the group, "Is the jar full?"

Everyone responded, "Yes."

He then pulled a large bowl of gravel from under the table and proceeded to pour the gravel into the jar. The gravel fit into the spaces between the rocks. He again queried, "Is the jar full?"

"Probably not," was the group's reply.

He reached for another bowl, this one filled with sand. He dumped the sand into the jar. The sand filled the spaces not taken by the rocks and the gravel. Once more, he asked, "Is the jar full?"

"No," everyone agreed.

Finally, he reached for a pitcher of water and poured water into the jar until it was filled to the top. The time management guru looked at the group and asked, "What is the point of my illustration?"

One man replied, "That no matter how full your schedule is, you can always fit one more thing into it."

"No!" the guru responded.

The point of this illustration is, "If you don't put the big rocks in first, you'll never get them in at all!"

The moral of the story is: Get the important things figured out first, then fit everything else in around them. In other words, know what your priorities are.

शरीर से जहर बाहर निकालता है पानी

पानी रे पानी तेरा रंग कैसा...। जीवनदायक पानी की महत्ता कवियों, दार्शनिकों ने अपने-अपने अंदाज में बयान की है। जीवन के लिए जल अनमोल है। इसका कोई मोल नहीं है लेकिन यह मात्र कोई कथन नहीं बल्कि सच्चाई है। पर्याप्त पानी पीना स्वास्थ्य के लिए बेहद जरूरी होता है।

यह न सिर्फ शरीर के विषैले तत्व बाहर निकालता है बल्कि त्वचा, पेट और किडनी को कई गंभीर बीमारियों से दूर रखता है। पानी की मात्रा कम होने से बहुत सारी बीमारियां शरीर को जकड़ लेती हैं। पानी कम पीने से डिहाइड्रेशन की समस्या तक हो सकती है।

पानी जहाँ शरीर की बहुत सारी बीमारियों से बचाता है, वहीं पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पीने के बहुत से फायदे भी हैं। वजन घटाने का सबसे आसान तरीका भी पानी ही है। शरीर के अतिरिक्त वसा को सिर्फ पानी की मात्रा को बढ़ाकर भी खत्म किया जा सकता है। पानी में कैलोरी, वसा, शुगर या कार्बोहाइड्रेट नहीं होता। यह उच्च कैलोरी वाले ड्रिंक्स जैसे सोडा, अल्कोहल और जूस की पीने की इच्छा को भी घटाता है।

शरीर में पानी की पर्याप्त मात्रा से दिल का दौरा पड़ने का खतरा भी घटता है। पानी काफी ऊर्जा प्रदान करता है। पानी की कमी से डिहाइड्रेशन का खतरा काफी बढ़ जाता है। जब शरीर में ऊर्जा कम हो जाती है तो थकावट महसूस होने लगती है। अकसर पानी की कमी से गला सूखने लगता है और लोगों को चक्कर भी आने लगते हैं। थकान से लोगों को मांसपेशियां में कमजोरी महसूस होती है।

स्वस्थ त्वचा सभी को अपनी ओर आकर्षित करती है। पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पीने से त्वचा साफ और चमकदार होती है। त्वचा पर चमक आती है लेकिन यह एक रात में नहीं होता। इसके लिए जरूरी है कि नियमित रूप से पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पिएं।

भोजन पचाने में पानी अहम भूमिका निभाता है। यह पेट की अन्य समस्याओं जैसे एसिडिटी, कब्ज या गैस से बचाने में काफी हद तक कारगर साबित होता है। वहीं शरीर से अपशिष्ट और विषैले पदार्थों को बाहर निकालने में महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका भी निभाता है इसलिए हर रोज खूब पानी पीना चाहिए। इस बात का भी ध्यान रखें कि जो पानी आप पी रहे हैं वह स्वच्छ हो।

TAKE WATER EMPTY STOMATCH EVERYDAY IN THE MORNING.

THE WATER KEEP IN THE NIGHT IN THE COPPER JUG

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH

It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.

METHOD OF TREATMENT

1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6.. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/ reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days
2. Gastric - 10 days
3. Diabetes - 30 days
4. Constipation - 10 days
5. Cancer - 180 days

7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards - daily.

This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.
Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.

You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.

60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive...

A cardiologist says if everyone who read this Should send a link to everyone they know, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.

7 dont's after a meal

* Don't smoke-Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher).
* Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr before meal.

* Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid.This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.

* Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted &blocked.

* Don't bathe - Bathing will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.
* Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.
* Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.

fw: REAL INCIDENT....READ N PASS..

VERY IMPORTANT.......

This is a real incident that happened in a local hospital in Bangalore , India . A 4 year old girl was admitted due to leg fracture. As it was an open fracture, she had to undergo an operation to stitch the protruding bone back in place.

Though it was quite a minor operation, she was hooked on to life support system, as a part of the process.

The doctors had to input some data prior to the operation to suit different conditions. Thereafter, the operation proceeded. Half way through the process, the life support system suddenly went dead.

The culprit : -

Some one was using his/her hand-phone outside the operation theatre. And the frequency had affected the system.. They tried to track the person, but to no avail. The little girl,young and innocent as she was, died soon after.

Be compassionate! Do not use your hand phone / mobiles especially at any hospitals or within the Aircraft or any places where you are told not to use it... You might not be caught in the act, but you might have killed someone without knowledge.

Sometimes it's a matter of Life & Death.....!!!

Please pass this to as many, since most of us are just not aware of the seriousness of this issue.

Please Don't ignore.
Please Send a link to all your contacts and help save a life..

Last Word : So friends, please avoid using your mobile phones in hospitals / petrol pumps / aircraft etc ... wherever it is mentioned no use of mobiles, go by the rules, it's a matter of life & death.

A tiny message can save a life..

One can change if ONE wants to !

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked stone & scratched lines on the side of the car.

In anger, the man took the child's hand & hit it many times, not realizing he was using an iron wrench. At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child saw his father....with painful eyes he asked 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'

Man was so hurt and speechless. He went back to car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions...... sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches, child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'. The next day that man committed suicide....

Anger and Love have NO LIMIT - choose the latter to have a beautiful & lovely life....

THINGS are meant to be USED and PEOPLE are to be LOVED, ..but the problem of today's world is that...People are used & Things are loved!!!

One can change if ONE wants to !

A Speech given by Chetan Bhagat in Symbiosis

2009-11-12T18:25:00.000+05:30

A Speech given by Chetan Bhagat in Symbiosis ...must read..... Short but has great depth in it. Do not miss to relish the true essence of life.

"Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a marble in a spoon kept in your mouth. If the marble falls, there is no point coming first. Same with life, where health and relationships are the marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life. Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die.

One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously. Life is not to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a prepaid card with limited validity. If we are lucky, we may last another 50 years. And 50 years is just 2,500 weekends. Do we really need to get so worked up?

It's ok, bunk a few classes, goof up a few interviews, take leave from work, fall in love. We are people, not programmed devices........." :)

"Don't be serious, be sincere." !

-Chetan Bhagat...

Small Story

2009-10-02T18:09:00.000+05:30

Small Story.......

Once a Junior School teacher asked her students to bring some potatoes in a plastic bag to school.

Each potato will be given a name of the person whom that child hates. Like this, the number of potatoes will be equal to the number of persons they hate.

On a decided day the children brought their potatoes well addressed. Some had two, some had three and some had even five potatoes. The teacher said they have to carry these potatoes with them everywhere they go for a week.

As the days passed the children started to complain about the spoiled smell that started coming from these potatoes. Also some students who had many potatoes complained that it was very heavy to carry them all around. The children got rid of this assignment after a week, when it got over.

The teacher asked, "How did you feel in this one week?" The children discussed their problems about the smell and weight.

Then the teacher said, "This situation is very similar to what you carry in your heart when you don't like some people. This hatred makes your heart unhealthy and you carry that hatred in your heart everywhere you go. If you can not bear the smell of spoiled potatoes for a week, imagine the impact of this hatred that you carry through out your life, on your heart?"

MORALE:

OUR HEART IS A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN THAT NEEDS A REGULAR CLEANING OF UNWANTED WEEDS.

FORGIVE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT BEHAVED WITH YOU AS EXPECTED AND FORGET THE BAD THINGS.

THIS ALSO MAKES ROOM AVAILABLE FOR STORING GOOD THINGS.

Take good care of your heart :)

Different Perspectives

One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?" "It was great, Dad." "Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked. "Oh yeah" said the son. "So what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father. The son answered, "I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them."With this the boy's father was speechless. Then his son added, "Thanks, dad for showing me how poor we are." [Too many times we forget what we have and concentrate on what we don't have. What is one person's worthless object is another's prize possession.It is all based on one's perspective. Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for all the bounty we have, instead of worrying about wanting more.]

Breathing Therapy

2009-07-11T10:18:00.002+05:30

FW: Breathing Therapy Makes you Relax Are you suffering from headache and feel tired try out this The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale. Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference. The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon. During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe. In about 5 mins, your headache will be gone? If you feel tired,
just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed. Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to 'cold'. Most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off" faster. Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up. Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or right? ? If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshed quickly. This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practiced by adults. My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor There was this period when he suffered headache literally every night, unable to study. He took painkillers, did not work. He decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed his right nose and breathed through his left nose. In less than a week, his headaches were gone! He continued the exercise for one month. This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that he has experienced. So, why not give it a try?

Can I Borrow $25?

2009-05-22T08:52:00.001+05:30

FW:
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'
DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.
SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'
DAD: 'Tha t's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the man said angrily.
SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?'
DAD: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'
SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $25?'
The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard everyday for such childish frivolities..'
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?
After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $25 and he really didn't ask for money very often The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door..
'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.
'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy..
'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the man. 'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $25 you asked for.'
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.
The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.
'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the father grumbled..
'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.
'Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow.. I would like to have dinner with you. '
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness..
It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $50 worth of your time with someone you love.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of hours. But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.
Please don't break this even if you only send (a link) it to one person. Thanks.

कोशिश करने वालों की कभी हार नहीं होती ।

2009-04-28T06:59:00.001+05:30

लहरों से डर कर नौका पार नहीं होती,
कोशिश करने वालों की कभी हार नहीं होती ।
नन्हीं चींटी जब दाना लेकर चलती है,
चढ़ती दीवारों पर, सौ बार फिसलती है ।
मन का विश्वास रगों में साहस भरता है,
चढ़कर गिरना, गिरकर चढ़ना न अखरता है ।
आख़िर उसकी मेहनत बेकार नहीं होती,
कोशिश करने वालों की कभी हार नहीं होती ।
डुबकियां सिंधु में गोताखोर लगाता है,
जा जा कर खाली हाथ लौटकर आता है ।
मिलते नहीं सहज ही मोती गहरे पानी में,
बढ़ता दुगना उत्साह इसी हैरानी में ।
मुट्ठी उसकी खाली हर बार नहीं होती,
कोशिश करने वालों की कभी हार नहीं होती ।
असफलता एक चुनौती है, इसे स्वीकार करो,
क्या कमी रह गई, देखो और सुधार करो ।
जब तक न सफल हो, नींद चैन को त्यागो तुम,
संघर्ष का मैदान छोड़ कर मत भागो तुम ।
कुछ किये बिना ही जय जय कार नहीं होती,
कोशिश करने वालों की कभी हार नहीं होती ।

I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels.

My angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This Is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to GOD said in prayer are Received..'

I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over the world..

Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section.

The angel then said to me, 'This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them.'

I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packaged for delivery to Earth

Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the Door of a very small station To my great surprise, only one angel was Seated there, idly doing nothing. 'This is the Acknowledgment Section,' My angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed 'How Is it that there is no work going on here?' I asked.

'So sad,' the angel sighed. 'After people receive the blessings that they asked For, very few send back acknowledgments .'

'How does one acknowledge GOD's blessings?' I asked.

'Simple,' the angel answered. Just say, 'Thank you, LORD.'

'What blessings should they acknowledge?' I asked.

'If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy .'

'And if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity.'

Also ......
' If you woke up this morning with more health than illness ... You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day .'

'If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation .. You are ahead of 700 million people in the world.'

'If your parents are still alive and still married ...you are very rare .'

'If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and despair.'

Ok, what now? How can I start?

If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you as very special and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world who cannot read at all.

Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you want, pass this along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are.

ATTN:
Acknowledge Dept.: 'Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to share this message and for giving me so many wonderful people to share it with.

Don't miss even a single word… Every second is worth reading this mail... Too good
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty.
He asks one of his new students to stand and.....

Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.

Prof : Is God good?
Student: Sure.

Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student: Yes.

Prof:My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him.
Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm?

(Student is silent.)

Prof:You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?

Student:Yes.

Prof:Is Satan good?

Student: No..

Prof:Where does Satan come from?
Student:From...God...

Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student:Yes..

Prof:Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.

Prof:So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)

Prof:Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student:Yes, sir.

Prof:So, who created them?
(Student has no answer.)

Prof:Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you.

Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?

Student: No, sir.

Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student:No, sir.

Prof:Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that
matter?
Student:No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.

Prof:Yet you still believe in Him?
Student:Yes..

Prof:According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn' t exist.
What do you say to that, son?

Student:Nothing. I only have my faith.

Prof:Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has..
Student:Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Prof:Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?

Prof:Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't.

(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat.
But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go
any further after that.
There is no such thing as cold .. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat
.. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy . Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it .

(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

Student:What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Prof: Yes.. What is night if there isn't darkness?
Student :You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing
light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you
would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Prof:So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student:Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God.
You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses
electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be
ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it.

Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)

Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going
endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.)

Student:Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?

(The class breaks out into laughter.)

Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so.
So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, sir.
With all due respect, si r, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room is silent... The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Prof:I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir.... The link between man & god is FAITH . That is all that keeps things moving & alive..

NB: I believe you have enjoyed the conversation...and if so...you'll probably want your friends/colleagues to enjoy the same...won't
you?....

this is a true story, and the student was none other than.........

SELF DISCIPLINE

2009-03-26T07:35:00.001+05:30

FW:

SELF DISCIPLINE
If an infant is lying on floor or a child is playing in a street, number of people will be guiding or instructing them in view of their safety or proper behaviour as they are considered undeveloped by them and therefore liable to make mistakes. As we grow, progressively, the number of people objecting at our wrong actions or decisions reduces. The most dangerous thing is that when we are at highest level in an organisation or family, there is nobody to correct our mistakes.
When there is nobody to point out our mistakes or review our actions ( rather at this stage people will be supporting our wrong actions also for their personal advantages ), it doesn’t mean that we are not making mistakes. These are the situations where one should act very cautiously because the organisation or family is definitely going to suffer ( by law of nature ) if decisions or actions are made wrong.
When there is nobody to review our actions, we must develop our capability of self review in context with our religion and culture which are permanent guidelines for ultimate lifestyle.

Be thankful for what you have

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy.

That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'

The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.' What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.' Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Great men say, 'Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness.... In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.' The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling...And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it!!!

For all who love eating Maggi
DO NOT IGNORE THIS ....... Especially those fond of Maggi......

'CORRECT WAY OF COOKING NOODLES'The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health. `Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's ready to eat.
This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.
By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder, normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structures of the MSG causing it to be toxic.
The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have taken the noodles.
CORRECT METHOD :
1. boil the noodles in a pot with water.2. once the noodles is cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.3. boil another pot of water till boiling and put the noodles into the hot boiling water and then shut the fire..4. only at this stage when the fire is off, and while the water is very hot, put the ingredient with the powder into the water, to make noodle soup.5. however, if you need dry noodles, take out the noodles and add the ingredient with the powder and toss it to get dry noodles.
Dietician's Note: If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make initially need to boil in water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles but to prevent it from sticking we need to add a tbsp of oil and also the noodles are deep fried partially to make it crunchy and then dusted with flour to prevent it from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles and the regular maggi too is
made the same way plus they add MSG/ ajinomoto and other chemical preservatives.
A large number of patient with the ages ranging from 18-24 years are ending up with pancreatitis either as a swelling or infection of the pancreas due to regular consumption of instant noodles.... If the frequency is more than 3 times a week,
then it is very hazardous...

प्रेरक प्रसंग 3 - टूटा मटका

2009-02-22T08:30:00.008+05:30

A water bearer in China had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots had a crack in it, while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water. At the end of the long walk from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full. For a full two years this went on daily, with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his house. Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments, perfect for which it was made.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection. And miserable that it was able to accomplish only half of what it had been made to do.
After two years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream. "I am ashamed of myself, and I want to apologize to you. I have been able to deliver only half my load because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house. Because of my flaws, you have to do all of this work, and you don't get full value from your efforts," the pot said. The bearer said to the pot, "Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of the path, but not on the other pot's side? That's because I have always known about your flaw. So I Planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you've watered them. For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to grace the house?

Moral: Each of us has our own unique flaws. We're all cracked pots. But it's the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding You've just got to take each person for what they are, and look for the good in them. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape. Remember to appreciate all the different people in your life. Don't forget to send a link to all worthy people. I did it.

मनुष्‍य का जीवन

एक बार ईश्‍वर ने एक प्राणि की रचना की और उससे कहा - तुम्‍हारा नाम गधा होगा। तुम्‍हें सूर्योदय से सूर्यास्‍त तक बिना थके, अपनी पीठ पर वजन लादना होगा। घास तुम्‍हारा भोजन होगा। तुम्‍हें बुद्धि नहीं होगी और तुम्‍हारी आयु 50 वर्ष होगी। अब तुम पृथ्‍वी पर जाओ।
तब गधे ने कहा - मेरा नाम गधा होगा और मुझे काम करना होगा। ठीक है लेकिन 50 वर्ष बहुत ज्‍यादा होते हैं कृपया मुझे 20 वर्ष की आयु ही प्रदान करें।
ईश्‍वर ने कहा - तथास्‍तु।

फिर ईश्‍वर ने एक अन्‍य प्राणि की रचना की और उससे कहा - तुम्‍हारा नाम कुत्‍ता होगा, तुम्‍हारे कार्य में आदमी के घर की सुरक्षा शामिल है और साथ ही तुम उसके प्रति वफादार रहोगे। आदमी जो भी कुछ बचा-खुचा तुम्‍हें देगा वही तुम्‍हारा भोजन होगा। तुम्‍हारी आयु तीस वर्ष रहेगी। अब तुम पृथ्‍वी पर जाओ।
तब कुत्‍ते ने कहा - मेरा नाम कुत्‍ता होगा और मुझे आदमी के घर की सुरक्षा का काम करना होगा आदि तो ठीक है लेकिन 30 वर्ष बहुत ज्‍यादा होते हैं कृपया मुझे 15 वर्ष की आयु ही प्रदान करें।
ईश्‍वर ने कहा - तथास्‍तु।

फिर ईश्‍वर ने एक अन्‍य प्राणि की रचना की और उससे कहा - तुम्‍हारा नाम बंदर होगा, तुम्‍हें पेड की शाखाओं पर एक स्‍थान से दूसरे स्‍थान पर कूदना होगा। मनोरंजन करना होगा। पेड. पर लगे फल, फूल, पत्‍ती आदि तुम्‍हारा भोजन होगा। तुम्‍हारी आयु बीस वर्ष रहेगी। अब तुम पृथ्‍वी पर जाओ।
तब बंदर ने कहा - मेरा नाम बंदर होगा और मुझे पेड.ों पर उछलकूद करना होगी तो ठीक है लेकिन 20 वर्ष बहुत ज्‍यादा होते हैं कृपया मुझे 10 वर्ष की आयु ही प्रदान करें।
ईश्‍वर ने कहा - तथास्‍तु।

अंत में ईश्‍वर ने आदमी की रचना की और कहा- तुम्‍हारा नाम आदमी होगा, तुम पृथ्‍वी लोक के सबसे अधिक तार्किक और बुद्धिमान प्राणी रहोगे, अन्‍य सभी प्राणियों को तुम अपना दास बनाकर रख सकते हो। तुम्‍हें 20 वर्ष की आयु प्रदान की जाती है। अब तुम पृथ्‍वी पर जाओ।
आदमी ने कहा- बाकि सब तो ठीक है लेकिन 20 वर्ष अत्‍यंत कम आयु है वैसे भी अन्‍य प्राणियों ने अपनी आयु के कुछ वर्ष छोड दिये हैं तो कृपया उसकी जोड मेरी आयु में बढ.ा दें।
ईश्‍वर ने कहा - तथास्‍तु।

तब से आदमी का जीवन इस प्रकार है।
पहले 20 वर्ष अपनी स्‍वयं की आयु के
अगले 25 वर्ष गधे की आयु के अर्थात गधा पच्‍चिसी
विवाह परिवार के भरणपोषण का भार
फिर उसके बच्‍चे बडे हो जाते हैं अतः
अगले 15 वर्ष कुत्‍ते की आयु के
जिसे वह घर की सुरक्षा में लगाता है जो मिलता है खाता है और
अगले 10 वर्ष बंदर की आयु के
जब वह बूढ.ा हो जाता है तो एक बेटे के घर से दूसरे बेटे या बेटी के घर अपने नाती पोतों का मनोरंजन करने के लिये घूमता है।
मित्र से ई-मेल पर प्राप्‍त

मित्रता का महत्‍व!

2009-01-11T08:34:00.002+05:30

आप हमेशा खुश रहें। खुशियाँ आपके लिये ही हैं उसे स्‍वीकार करने के लिये हमेशा तैयार रहें।
एक बार की बात है एक छोटे लडके को बहुत गुस्‍सा आता था। एक दिन उसके पापा ने उसे एक थैला भर कर कीलें और एक हथौडी देते हुए कहा जब जब भी तुम्‍हे गुस्‍सा आयेगा तब अपने घर के पीछे की बागड़ में जा कर एक कील ठोंकना होगी।
पहले दिन उस लडके ने 37 कीलें दिनभर में ठोक दी। अगले पूरे हफ्‍ते में जैसे जैसे उसने अपने गुस्‍से को नियंत्रण में लेना शुरू किया वैसे वैस रोज ठोकी जाने वाली कीलों की संख्‍या में कमी आती गई। धीरे धीरे उसे ये समझ मे आ गया की अपने गुस्‍से को नियंत्रण मे रखना कील ठोकने से ज्‍यादा आसान है। आखिर वो दिन आ ही गया जब लडके को अपने गुस्‍से को काबू में रखना आ गया।
इस बारे में उसने अपने पापा को बताया। तब उसके पापा ने कहा अब जब जब भी तुम एक पूरा दिन अपने गुस्‍से को नियंत्रित रखोगे तब हर दिन बागड़ में ठोकी गई एक कील को तुम्‍हे निकालना होगा।
कुछ दिन बाद लडके ने अपने पापा से कहा की बागड़ में ठोकी गई सारी कीलें निकल चुकी हैं। तब उसके पापा ने उसके कंधे पर हाथ रख कर कहा ये तो बहुत खुशी की बात है कि तुमने अपने गुस्‍से पर नियंत्रण पा लिया है आओ हम चलकर पिछवाडे की बागड़ जाकर देखें। वहाँ जाकर उन्‍होंने कहा लेकिन जो छेद उस बागड़ में हुऐ हैं उनका क्‍या? बागड़ को फिर से पहले जैसा नहीं बनाया जा सकता।
जब भी हम गुस्‍से में कुछ कहते हैं उससे मन में इसी प्रकार के छेद रूपी घाव बन जाते हैं। किसी आदमी को चाकू मारकर निकालने के बाद माफी भी मांग सकते हैं लेकिन उसके घावों के निशान वैसे ही बने रहेंगे। शब्‍दों के तीर भी शस्‍त्रों के घाव जैसे होते हैं।
इसी प्रकार मित्रों से बात करते समय याद रखना चाहिये कि मित्र हमारे जीवन में आभूषणों के समान होते हैं। मित्र हमेंं हँसाते हैं जो हमारी बाते सुनते हैं तथा हमें अच्‍छे कार्य की प्रेरणा देते हैं। हमें सफलता की और प्रेरित करते हैं।
अपने दोस्‍तों को यह बताईये की आप उन्‍हें कितना चाहते हैं। इसकी एक लिंक उन्‍हें भी भेजें।

मुझे आपसे मित्रता पर गर्व है। कृपया मुझे माफ करें अगर मेरी वजह से कभी आपकी बागड़ में कोई छेद हुआ हो।

Its' an Forwarded Message, I Want to Share with You.

An old man lived alone in a village. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation:

Dear Son,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I hate to miss doing the garden, because your mother always loved planting time. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me, if you weren't in prison.
Love,Dad

Shortly, the old man received this telegram: "For Heaven's sake, Dad, don't dig up the garden!! That's where I buried the GUNS!!"

At 4 a.m. the next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any guns.

Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what happened, and asked him what to do next.

His son's reply was: "Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad.. It's the best I could do for you from here."

Moral:
NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING DEEP FROM YOUR HEART YOU CAN DO IT. IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT MATTERS.. NOT WHERE YOU ARE OR WHERE THE PERSON IS ...

टोटका-सुबह पहली चाय को सड़क पर ढोलने का

2008-12-22T10:51:00.005+05:30

अक्सर बडे सबेरे सैर पर जाने का प्रयत्न करता हूँ , रोज एक ही रास्ते पर जाने की अपेक्षा अपने शहर के नये-नये रास्तों पर जाता हूँ ऐसा करने से सभी रास्तों पर होने वाले विभिन्न परिवर्तनों से स्वयं को अपडेट कर लेता हूँ।

इसी क्रम में एक बार मैं सुबह जब सैर के लिये जा रहा था मैंने देखा, चौराहे पर चाय का छोटा ठेला लगाने वाले एक व्यक्ति ने एक बडी तपेली भरकर चाय बनाई उसके ठेले के पास कुछ ग्राहक चाय का इंतजार कर रहे थे। सबको उस गुलाबी ठंड में कब चाय मिलेगी इस बात को ले कर बेसब्री थी ऐसे में उस ठेले वाले ने चाय बनाने के बाद पहली एक गिलास चाय और एक गिलास पानी को सड़क के बीचो-बीच ला कर ढोल दिया। उसके बाद उसने बाकी के गिलासों में चाय भरी और फिर ग्राहकों को देना शुरू कर दिया।

यह दृश्य देखकर मुझसे रहा नहीं गया और मैंने इसका कारण उससे जानना चाहा तब उसने बताया यह हमारे लिये लिये एक टोटके जैसा है अगर हम पहली एक गिलास चाय सड़क पर ढोल भी देते हैं तो क्या फर्क पड़ता है। मैंने उसे समझाने का प्रयत्न करते हुए कहा - भाई , इसकी जगह पर पहली चाय किसी गरीब को पिला दिया करो। बिना पैसे लिये। कम से कम वो दुआ देगा। इस प्रकार सड़क पर चाय ढोलने से तो वो चाय किसी की भी नहीं रही।

ना बाबुजी वो टोटका है-उसने कहा।

मैंने कहा- कैसा टोटका

हमारी और से भूमि को दिया जाता है-उसने कहा।

मैंने कहा - वो अन्न है वो हमारे अन्धविश्वास के चक्कर में किसी और के पैरों में आता है ऐसा करना ठीक नहीं है ऐसा करने से पुण्य मिलेगा या नहीं ये तो नहीं पता लेकिन पाप जरूर लगेगा। अगर ऐसा करना जरूरी ही है तो कम से कम सड़क के बीचों-बीच चाय को न डालते हुए किसी कोने में डाल दो, वो भी तो भूमि का ही हिस्सा है।

लेकिन उसने इस पर कोई प्रतिक्रिया नहीं दी।

किसी ने ठीक ही कहा है इस देश में इंसान तो क्या पत्थर भी यहाँ पुजे जाते हैं...........

कम्प्यूटर हम्माल चाहिये?

2008-12-15T05:32:00.004+05:30

पिछले कई वर्षों से कम्प्यूटर मेरे कार्य क्षेत्र का महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा रहा है इसी कारण अपने शहर के लगभग सभी बडे उद्योगपतियों, व्यवसायियों, बैंक कर्मियों, शासकीय अधिकारीयों के अलावा विधार्थियों, प्रोग्रामिंग करने वालों, कम्प्यूटर आपरेटर और विभिन्न प्रकार से कम्प्यूटर क्षेत्र से जुडे कार्य करने वाले साथियों से परिचित हूँ । चूँकि जमाना टेक्नोलॉजी का ही है इसलिये यह परिचय का दायरा बढ़ता ही चला जा रहा है। जितना संभव हो सभी को व्यावसायिक मदद देता, लेता रहता हूँ । इसमें मेरा भी जीवन यापन सरल हो जाता है।

इसी सन्दर्भ में एक प्रसंग

कुछ वर्षों पहले एक उद्योगपति से दूरभाष पर हुई चर्चा के अंश –

उद्योगपति - हमारे कार्यालय में एक कम्प्यूटर आपरेटर की आवश्कता है। क्या आप अपने किसी विद्यार्थी या एक कम्प्यूटर आपरेटर की व्यवस्था कर सकते हैं?
मैंने कहा - बिलकुल कर सकते हैं पर आप किस प्रकार के कार्य में आपरेटर की मदद चाहते हैं विस्तार से बताइए? ताकि उचित व्यक्ति को आपके पास भेज सकूँ।

उद्योगपति - वैसे तो सामान्य रूप से एक उद्योग में जो कार्य होता है ........जैसे .....कार्यालय का हिसाब-किताब और पत्र-व्यवहार वगेरह........ और हाँ ग्रेजुएट हो..........अगर अनुभव हो तो और अच्छा रहेगा।
मैंने कहा - ठीक है कार्य स्थल, कार्यालयीन समय और वेतन वगैरह के बारे में क्या रहेगा?

उद्योगपति - भई मेरा आफिस तो इंडस्ट्रीयल एरिया में है और रही बात आफिस टाइम की तो सुबह 8:30-9 बजे तक आ जावे, हमारे यहाँ जाने का कोई फिक्स टाइम नहीं होता ........... और वेतन का ऐसा है कि पिछले आपरेटर को तो मैं ............. रू 1800-2000 देता था पर आदमी अच्छा हो तो थोडा बढ़ा भी सकते हैं। पर उसके पास स्वयं का मोबाइल और गाडी जरूर हो।
मैंने पूछा - वो क्यों?
उद्योगपति - भई कभी-कभी कम्प्यूटर पर ज्यादा काम नहीं होता है तब बैंक से संबंधित या अन्य लोकल काम भी उसे देखना पड सकता है। उसे पेट्रोल का पैसा अलग से देंगे।
मैंने पूछा - कुछ और सुविधाएं भी बता सकें तो मैं उसे ठीक से कनविंस कर सकूँगा।
उद्योगपति - हाँ..... उसे हम रविवार को आधे दिन की छुट्टी देंगे।
मैंने कहा - इसके अलावा और कोई कार्य-अपेक्षा होगी?
उद्योगपति - आल राउंडर हो।
मैंने कहा - मतलब आपको कम्प्यूटर आपरेटर नहीं ........बल्कि कम्प्यूटर हम्माल चाहिये?
उद्योगपति - क्या मतलब? (आवाज में थोडा रूखा पन आ गया था)
मैंने कहा - एक अशिक्षित मजदूर भी आजकल कम से कम 150रू रोज कमा लेता है जबकि उसका कोई अन्य इनवेस्टमेंट नहीं होता। आप को अनुभवी, पढ़ा-लिखा भी चाहिए, जो संपूर्ण आफिस का हिसाब-किताब भी देखे, कम्प्यूटर के साथ अन्य कार्य भी देखे, समय भी भरपूर दे, फिर उससे अनजाने में आप एक मोबाइल और गाडी का इनवेस्टमेंट भी करा रहे हैं और वो भी बिना ब्याज का? और फिर आप कह रहें हैं कि उसे आप थोडा बढ़ा कर देंगे। तो इस वेतन में तो कोई मजबूर ही मिल सकेगा।
उद्योगपति - आप ऐसा समझ सकते हैं? मेरे आफिस में दिन में दस-दस आदमी चक्कर लगाते हैं
मैंने कहा - तो फिर उसी में से किसी का चुनाव कर लें।
उद्योगपति - ( व्यंगात्मक तरीके से हंसते हुए ) तो फिर आप बताइए कि कितना वेतन होना चाहिये?
मैंने कहा - आप स्थायी नौकरी देने से तो रहे, ना आप कोई पेंशन या रिटायरमेंट बेनिफिट देंगे। तो फिर वर्तमान तनख्वाह कम से कम दस हजार रूपये तो हो। आजकल आप अपना स्वयं का परिवार रू2000 में चला सकते हैं क्या?
उद्योगपति - अरे यार.......... पेंडसे साहब .......... यो सब तो आप सरकार ने पूछो? आप के पास कोई आदमी हो तो भिजवाना। .......... कहकर उन्होंने फोन रख दिया।

एक नौजवान व्यक्ति जो ग्रेजुएट हो और कम्प्यूटर प्रशिक्षण के लिये उसने कोई पॉँच-पच्चीस हजार खर्च किये हों। अपनी जिंदगी का एक महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा वो इस प्रकार से आपको दे देगा। तो अपेक्षा भी रखेगा। खैर उस उद्योगपति को आज तक उचित व्यक्ति की तलाश है।
क्या भविष्य में उस उद्योगपति को कोई कम्प्यूटर हम्माल मिल सकेगा?

दैनिक भास्कर रतलाम का आतंकवाद के खिलाफ प्रयास प्रंशसनीय

2008-12-14T06:22:00.000+05:30

केवल अनर्गल , संपादकविहिन, हतोत्साहित करने वाली खबरें छापने वाले तो कई समाचार पत्र हैं लेकिन दैनिक भास्कर ने आतंकवाद के विरूद्ध , शहीदों को श्रद्धांजली देने के लिये, अनूठा तरिका अपनाया जो अत्यंत प्रंशसनीय प्रयास है।
इसके पहले भी दैनिक भास्कर ने रतलाम के लोगों को प्रत्येक वार्ड की जनता को प्रशासन से और प्रशासन को जनता से मिलवा कर एक सक्रीय और जागरूक मध्यस्थ की सफल भूमिका निभाई थी।
इसी प्रकार राष्ट्र की सच्ची सेवा करते रहने के लिये संपूर्ण भास्कर परिवार को मेरी शुभकामनायें !

A short story with a beautiful message

Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge। The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river।"

The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand." "What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father. "There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."
In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond.
So hold the hand of the person who loves you rather than expecting them to hold yours...
This message is too short......but carries a lot of Feelings.

चाय वाला लड़का

2008-12-12T05:24:00.000+05:30

बात लगभग एक दशक पहले की है, रतलाम के दो बत्ती स्थित अपने छोटे से प्रशिक्षण संस्थान में एक दिन रतलाम कालेज के एक व्याख्याता अपनी व्याख्याता पत्नी के साथ किसी महत्वपूर्ण कार्य के सन्दर्भ में, मुझसे मिलने के लिये आये। कार्य के बारे में उनसे चर्चा के पश्चात्, मैंने उनसे चाय पीने का आग्रह करते हुए, पास ही स्थित एक चाय की दुकान पर चाय लाने का आदेश दिया।
कुछ की क्षणों पश्चात् एक लडका अत्यंत दयनीय हालत में चाय के गिलास लेकर उपस्थित हुआ। उसका शर्ट फटा हुआ था उसकी पेंट भी बुरी तरह से फटी हुई थी बल्कि वह चीथड़े लपेट कर आया था कहना ज्यादा ठीक होगा, अत्यंत बेतरतीब गंदे व लंबे बाल, नाखूनों में काला-काला मैल, नंगे पैर, उसे नहा कर लगभग एक-आध महिना तो निश्चित ही हुआ होगा, इस प्रकार का स्वरूप लिये उस लडके ने वहां आकर चाय के गिलास हमारे सामने टेबल पर रख दिये।
मेरे साथ उस कमरे में बैठे सभी लोगों का ध्यान बरबस ही इस घटना की और चला गया। एक क्षण विशेष के लिये मुझे काटो तो खून नहीं वाली स्थिति का सामना करना पडा। मेरे छोटे से आफिस का तथाकथित डेकोरम धडाम से नीचे गिर गया था। मुझे ऐसा लगा आज क्यों मैंने चाय के लिये इस दुकान पर आदेश दिया? पर अब तक जो होना था वह तो हो चुका था।
जैसे तैसे हम सभी ने चुपचाप अपनी-अपनी चाय खत्म की। मेरी स्थिति को समते हुए बिना किसी और बात को आगे बढाये मुझे और शर्मिंदा होने से बचाने के लिये प्रोफेसर साहब अपनी पत्नी के साथ वहां से विदा हो गये।
उनके जाने के पश्चात् मैंने तुरंत उस होटल मालिक के पास जाकर उसे समझाया की अब भविष्य में इस प्रकार से चाय मत भेजना। अन्यथा तुम्हारे होटल की चाय बिकना बंद हो जावेगी। होटल मालिक ने मुझसे कहा आप बिलकुल ठीक कहते हैं परंतु मेरे यहाँ हर सप्ताह नया नौकर आ जाता है इन्हें कैसे समझाया जावे। फिर भी होटल मालिक और उस लडके को ग्राहक के सामने चाय को कैसे पेश किया जावे उसके प्रस्तुतिकरण का तरीका समझाया।
होटल मालिक से बातचीत के दौरान मुझे ज्ञात हुआ की ये लडके लगभग 50 रूपये रोज में मिल जाते हैं उन्हें दिन में तीन बार नाश्ता और चार- पॉँच बार चाय मुफ्त में मिल जाती है रात को दुकान के बाहरी ओटले पर सोने को मिल जाता है बस उसमें ये खुश हो जाते हैं।
उसी दिन दोपहर के भोजन के पश्चात् अपने घर से लौटते समय एक जोडी पुराने कपडे लाकर उस लडके को दिये। उस लडके को पास ही एक नाई की दुकान पर ले जाकर जेंटलमैन बनाया। वहीं की एक किराना दुकान से साबुन और एक कंघी दिलवाकर उसे एक सार्वजानिक नल पर नहाने भेजा।
शाम तक सफेद रंग का फ्री साइज़ का एक लंबा एप्रन सिलवाकर होटल के मालिक को यह कहते हुए दिया कि जब भी लडके को आस-पास चाय देने भेजो तो उसे कम से कम यह एप्रन जरूर पहना देना। इतना कह कर मैं अपने प्रशिक्षण संस्थान लौट आया।
अगले दिन मैं सुवह की कक्षाएं लेने के पश्चात् सामने बरामदे में बैठकर अखबार पढ़ रहा था तभी वह लडका बिना आर्डर के एक चाय लेकर मेरे पास आया और बोला लीजिये आपकी चाय। मैंने उसकी ओर देखा वही लडका, नहाने के बाद एप्रन पहन कर, बडा स्मार्ट सा बन कर मेरे लिये चाय लेकर आया था। मैंने कहा भाई मैंने तो चाय का आर्डर ही नहीं दिया था?
उस लडके ने कहा तो क्या हुआ सुबह चाय तो पी सकते हैं। मैंने सोचा चलो ठीक है अब ये ले ही आया है तो पी लेते हैं चाय की चुस्कियों के साथ मैं भी अखबार पढने लग गया। वह लडका कब चला गया पता ही नहीं चला।
कुछ देर के पश्चात् वह गिलास वापस लेने आया तो मैंने हमेशा की तरह अपना पर्स निकालकर उसकी और चाय के पैसे बढ़ाये परंतु उसने चाय के पैसे लेने से मना कर दिया, और कहा बाबूजी ये चाय मेरी तरफ से थी मैं अपनी रोजी में से इसके पैसे कटवा दूंगा।
अब मेरे आश्चर्य का ठिकाना नहीं रहा, ऐसा तो मैंने सोचा ही नहीं था। मैंने बहुत कोशिश की लेकिन उसने पैसे नहीं लिये।
आज मैं अपना कार्यालय किसी अन्य स्थान पर चला रहा हूँ परंतु जब भी कभी उस पुरानी जगह पर जाता हूँ वही लडका जो खुद अब एक चाय की दुकान का मालिक है बडी साफ सुथरे तरीके से रहते हुए मुझे अब भी याद करता है। और अब उसके यहाँ जो लडके काम करते हैं उनका पूरा ध्यान भी वही रखता है।
कभी कभी हमारे व्दारा बताई गई छोटी सी बात भी किसी अन्य के जीवन में कितना बडा काम कर सकती है यह इसका एक साक्षात उदाहरण है।
