काँच की बरनी और दो कप चाय

जीवन में जब सब कुछ एक साथ और जल्दी - जल्दी करने की इच्छा होती है , सब कुछ तेजी से पा लेने की इच्छा होती है , और हमें लगने लगता है कि दिन के चौबीस घंटे भी कम पड़ते हैं , उस समय ये बोध कथा , " काँच की बरनी और दो कप चाय " हमें याद आती है । दर्शनशास्त्र के एक प्रोफ़ेसर कक्षा में आये और उन्होंने छात्रों से कहा कि वे आज जीवन का एक महत्वपूर्ण पाठ पढाने वाले हैं ... उन्होंने अपने साथ लाई एक काँच की बडी़ बरनी ( जार ) टेबल पर रखा और उसमें टेबल टेनिस की गेंदें डालने लगे और तब तक डालते रहे जब तक कि उसमें एक भी गेंद समाने की जगह नहीं बची ... उन्होंने छात्रों से पूछा - क्या बरनी पूरी भर गई ? हाँ ... आवाज आई ... फ़िर प्रोफ़ेसर साहब ने छोटे - छोटे कंकर उसमें भरने शुरु किये धीरे - धीरे बरनी को हिलाया तो काफ़ी सारे कंकर उसमें जहाँ जगह खाली थी , समा गये , फ़िर से प्रोफ़ेसर साहब ने पूछा , क्या अब बरनी भर गई है , छात्रों ने एक बार फ़िर हाँ कहा| प्रोफ़ेसर साहब ने रेत की थैली से हौले - हौले उस बरनी में रेत डालना शुरु किया , वह रेत भी उस जार में जहाँ संभव था बैठ गई , अब छात्र अ

HEALTH TIPS FOR PROLONGED PC USERS

Prolonged use of PC or laptops can cause serious problems to the human body which develop over a long period of time and hence are more susceptible to be ignored or confused with something else. I have been a computer user for last 10 or 12 years and have faced some of these problems myself. luckily, someone told me to follow a few simple and very effective things/practices that have helped not only to mitigate the risks but also reverse the damage done to a great extent. I share these tips in a supposedly tech.tips blog because i feel that it is the right place to put these things in perspective. Usually a PC user is involved deeply in whatever s/he is doing - programming, blogging, reading, searching, playing video/music, etc - and doesn't listen to the nature's calls. DO listen to them and urinate every 60 to 90 minutes to release the pressure from the bladder. Drink water - say 2-3 gulps every 10 minutes or better 1 glass (200 to 300 ml) every half an hour.

Lets be the change

have you wondered ever how pathetic and incredible our country India is at the same time. When you go out to take a morning walk you feel the cool wind of monsoon on your face amidst the greenery of your plush locality. Every thing seems to right and going just perfect! Next time just try to look beyond your usual line of sight and try to spot a municipal corporations trash bin...there will be some kids completely oblivious of the freshness in air and picking up the trash finding some of WORTH from it!!! so that they can have 2 square meals for the coming day. We might not be able to do too much about poverty around us and may even think that it not my business to feed the whole world. But, there are some people around us who are in need of our support right now and right here. Just by making two more chapatis with every meal and tryiing to give them to a child along the road to eat with some achar (pickle) we can save them from the misery atleast for a few hours. Probably it will brin

Colors of life

the colors of life are very blurr sometimes. the are not exactly the way many of wish to be - black and white - so that our choices can be straight forward. they are mostly grays in between - absolute black or absolute white can never exist on this mortal world - simply as even to be aware about the other (even self) we need the other or opposite of what we are (or see) we have to choose from different shades of gray - some people are more acceptable to us than others - and this choice is on the basis of our conditioning and state of mind. most of us looks at the immediate and worldy benefits that we can derive from the other and make our choices on our assessment of these trade-offs - HEY WAHT ARE WE DOING????? trading people like we trade chips of chockolates!!!!! start realising that every one has a bit of evil in them - no matter how good they seem to be; as well as some amount of good - no matter how we disguct at their sight. atleast they are liked by some who are close to them!!
