Prof. Chetan Singh Solanki's column: Climate Satyagraha is the most needed by the world today
The country is currently in the grip of severe heat. The temperature is constantly setting new records. When I ask people if the summer will be less or more next year, most people say after a few moments of thought—maybe more. This answer is not just a guess, but a hard truth. The Earth is warming faster than ever. So to assume that the situation will improve on its own next year is like delusionalizing yourself. The biggest question is what do we do today so that the future does not become more frightening. There is a constant work on environmental protection, technological developments, ne
Virag Gupta's column: Unsafe use of AI in court will increase difficulties
The Supreme Court has released a draft of rules for the use of AI in courts. But the ad hoc use of AI in courts burdened with lawsuits can lead to difficulties and disputes. It is important to understand the 4 aspects related to them: 1. According to Article 145 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court has the right to make rules. Under that, the President approved the Supreme Court Rules 2013. But the draft AI does not mention the law according to which they are made. The district courts are under the High Courts of the states. But the High Courts are not considered to be subordinate to the Su
Nitin Naveen's Column: How to express gratitude to the teacher who shaped your life?
Hangal is a town and taluk headquarters in Haveri district, 335 km from Bengaluru in Karnataka. Situated on the left bank of the Dharma River, one can sit in this place and admire nature peacefully for hours. But on May 30 this year, this quiet town suddenly appeared to be completely transformed. There was a different energy in the atmosphere, especially at Kumareshwar High School. More than a thousand people like engineers, doctors, entrepreneurs and corporate executives had gathered at their old playground. They were laughing, hugging and even wiping away tears in emotion. They had returned
N. Raghuraman's column: If art is to flourish, the rich must be supported and the educated should be encouraged
One Sunday evening, after a long time since the IPL was over, I felt that I had nothing to do. The family suddenly decided to go to the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) in Bandra, Mumbai. There we went to watch the traditional Bharatanatyam dance show 'Echoes of Thanjavur – The Unbroken'. In the small but full-filled Experimental Theater, which had 125 seats, I caught sight of a familiar face. My so-called intelligence immediately activated, raising the question, 'How is this here? They have nothing to do with this programme. I estimated that he would be about half the total seatin
Pt. Vijayshankar Mehta's column: God never lets pride remain in His devotee
Always try to be normal. When you have a reputation and recognition in society, try to be more normal. Whenever we are insulted somewhere, instead of getting upset with it, learn from the situation and the person why it happened. Rather, express gratitude in your heart for the situation that that humiliation taught us patience. The result is boldness, which God loves so much. Kakbhushundi Ji had said to Garuda Ji, "Listen, Ram, do easy nature, do not keep people's pride." Listen to the natural nature of Lord Rama, he does not allow pride in the devotee. If we are arrogant, then we are doing le
N. Raghuraman's column: Pets have healing power; The animals that live with us are good for our physical-mental health
She was sitting on the edge of a pond, lost in her thoughts. Suddenly the shadows of four horsemen appear in the water. She immediately turns around and shouts, 'Come on!' and the mare immediately turns and looks at her, as if she understood the danger that was looming over her mistress. Dhanno starts to pick up speed even before he can climb on the tanga. As soon as she climbs the tanga, she says- 'Bhag Dhanno, today is a question of your Basanti's honor.... Most people will remember this scene from the 51-year-old film 'Sholay'. Some people may have even wondered how a mare could sense dange
N. Raghuraman's column: Cutting costs and operating expenses should be considered in difficult times
Please don't curse my habits. I am a man of old thoughts. Even in window shopping, I first see the price tag, then enjoy the product. Last week, while waiting for someone at a mall in Mumbai's Ghatkopar, I went to Smart Bazaar. As soon as I entered, I was greeted by things related to the kitchen and bathroom, such as phenyl, dish washing soap, liquid, and other detergents. I picked up a bottle of phenyl and was shocked to see the price. The price of that branded phenyl bottle was Rs 307. I immediately called home and asked for the price printed on the old phenyl bottle. The old price gave me a
Pt. Vijay Shankar Mehta's column: If the mind is autocratic, our relationship with the family deteriorates
Our mind runs wherever it wants, however it wants, and it also misleads us. Seeing a person's situation, he takes such a big leap that we ourselves get upset. When our mind is autocratic in the household, then our relationship with the family deteriorates. Our thinking becomes negative, our speech becomes polluted. We do some things in our own home, just like in the outside world nowadays. It is believed that bullying in offices, schools and colleges is very sad. It means undue pressure, hurtful comments on the other person. Nowadays we see that our children are using bullying among themselves
Pt. Vijay Shankar Mehta's column: If the frugal sees the value of money, the miser sees the price.
There is a difference between being frugal and being stingy. This is the difference between a sensible and a miser. The frugal sees the value behind money, the miser sees only the price in money. The frugal spends wisely, the miser does not spend even on opportunities. Now if the whole world will see a difficult time, then our country will also see it. At this time, the countrymen have to be frugal and not stingy. And there are many forms of being frugal. For example, avoid noise barriers. Green Corridor – Protect the environment. Use EVs to reduce power consumption. We have to work on many
Pt. Vijay Shankar Mehta's column: Removing the mind will create the space that calms us
Sorrow in life and being unhappy are two different things. There is no sorrow that comes without happiness and there is no happiness that comes without sorrow. These two come together. The name of their understanding is their liberation. There is a word – space. It simply means create space. Keep a space in our feelings and thoughts. Thoughts come from outside, we are thinking. Then we attach our whole personality, being, to that idea. The sages have said that the mind does the work of sticking to the body and soul of a person and the more the body and soul clings to it, the more restless it
