Mere Saath Saath Chalna
Mere har kadam pe Humdum
Mere saath saath chalna
Kabhi mushkilein jo ayein
Mera hath thame rahna
Jo koi kami ho mujhme
Mujhe pyar se samajhna
tere pyar ke sahare
meri zindagi hai mumkin
Kabhi aag pe chalu main
Meri dhal ban ke rahna
kabhi thak jo jaun main gar
Mere hauslon me rahna
Bas ek junoon hai dil me
mera naam ho falak pe
Tere pyar ke sahare
Mujhe taron ko hai chuna
Mere saath yu hi rahna
Mujhe sans dete rahna
Tere pyar ke sahare
Yuhi zindagi guzarun...

Italy ordains first woman priest, where are we lagging...
She belongs to the Italian Old Catholic Church, a congregation that broke away from Roman Catholicism in the 19th Century.
While the Vatican is opposed to women priests, other Christian groups have long accepted female clergy.
Mrs Longhitano, who will now be known as Mother Longhitano, said she hoped to break down what she described as prejudice in the Roman Catholic church.
"We are talking about an extremely hierarchical system; a male caste with a strong instinct of self-preservation," she said.
"And this is why there is this general attitude against ordaining women in the Church."
The Roman Catholic Church says it obeys the directives of Jesus Christ, whose 12 Apostles were all men.
The BBC's Duncan Kennedy in Rome says some commentators have argued that having more women in the Church may have helped prevent the priest child-abuse scandal of recent years.
Having women ordained in Italy from a fringe Catholic group will not be as divisive as women bishops has been in the Anglican communion, our correspondent says.
For now, its impact is likely to be more symbolic than anything more profound, he adds.

Why are we lagging behind, Fatwas stopped Indian Muslim females from a chance to get a recognition and a respectable place in society. Why are we still so crippled and dictatored by illogical monsterous myths... Please let humans live a unsuppressed, undiscriminated, unpolitical, nonbrutal, nondictatorship life where love and equality prevails...

Are we heading towards the "Human" Religion, or are we still the same old goat that follow what the masters said..
Are we heading towards the "HUMAN" religion...
Being human: Religion: Bound to believe?
Atheism will always be a harder sell than religion, because a slew of cognitive traits predispose us to faith.
Is religion a product of our evolution? The very question makes many people, religious or otherwise, cringe, although for different reasons.
Mangal Karkhanis In Maharashtra also, we never married in same GOTRA…!!! We believed same GOTRA means same PROJANY, but there are some conditions and ways which allowed marriage in same GOTRA, also… We are HINDUS so believed, trust, respect and we follow our custom/ a tradition … Where is the problem?
Tejas Mehta
nothing much.. Just that this diktat - don't marry in your GOTRA - is out-dated, rather close to savage. Don't see anything truly Hindu in it!

the problem is in "killing the offenders"... there are many cases of happy, successful "सगोत्र" marriages in Maharashtra... how can the parents kill their own daughter?
Yesterday at 11:28am
Amit Karkhanis
That is true but we dont kill people for marrying in same gotra.. killing someone and issuing warnings is taking law in hand. Who the hell gives this community leaders to take law in their own hands?

"The patriotism of feeble minds incapable of thought and action is limited to praising one's ancestors and one's own people, admiring their manners, customs and institutions, and denying their manifest feelings and patent defects in their character. He only is a true patriot who, with an unprejudiced mind and with the light that God has vouchsafed ... See Moreto him, examines the manners, customs and institutions of his country, and the character of his people, fearlessly exposes the abuses and evils he may find therein, and earnestly calls upon them to reform and improve even at the risk of offending them and being stoned by them." - Dr. R. G. Bhandarkar, Convocation Address as Vice-Chancellor of University of Bombay, 1894

I totally agree with Aditya.. why so mush strongly we force ourselves to follow customs & rituals which are mere psycholgical hypothesis, or rather following wt our ancestors said is right.. we live in a world which has an open mind and eyes to understand the basic laws of nature of diffrentiating betn the good and th bad, and yes, a few basic ... See Morerituals to follow to maintain the decorum of being in society..
otherwise, we all know wts the basic true facts of living humanly are.. anything more isfor your own satisfaction...
yes, respecting elderlies feelings is imp.. but following is ur choice.

u r ryt ... if the religion is properperly understood there's no problem in anything,,, neither specifically similarly in any religion, caste, state, culture... cultures and rituals must be respected, i hope all intellectuals understand this and wt i want to say is something above and beyond all religions, customs, the basic law of nature and logical world... give respect and love without any condition, and then nature loves u, otherwise we face calamities..

'Gothra' is an identity carried by male lineage in India from time immemorial. Most people have gothra chain names traceable to Rig Vedic Rishis like 'Gowthama', 'Vasishta' 'Viswamithra' and to first sons of Vaivaswatha Manu like Angirasa & Bhrigu. Purana such as Vishnu Purana refer to individual identity through 'Gothra'. Listings of more than 250 Gothra chains have been explicitly listed. I have heard of instances of Muslims converted from Hinduism still keeping track of their 'Gothra'.

Modern DNA & genetic research has confirmed male line Y-chromosomal transference, through 8 generations in case of Thomas Jefferson. 'Gothra' in essence really stands for Y-chromosomal identity.

In today's date we are regularly listening of intercaste and interreligious marrriages, i wish to know with all respect to our religious systems and feelings, just as a topic of discussion, is there any mutation or genetic defect or else as a result, or any anolmaly anyway? i hv seen few friends doing cross caste and religious marriages, with ahppy... See More families and intelligent children... one side we talk of progress and literacy and on the other hand, our minds r still blocked... when all souls when leave the body merge into the supraconscious being that we call god by diffrent names.. why do we so hatredly diffrentiate our physical body.. just a discussion..

Happy Holi ! The Indian Festival of Colours
Holi FestivalOne of the major festivals of India, Holi , the festival of colours is celebrated on the full moon day in the month of Phalgun which is the month of March as per the Gregorian calendar.
Preparations
Entire country wears a festive look. Heaps of various hues of gulal and abeer can be seen shops days before the festival. Pichkaris (to sprinkle colour) come up to drench everybody in colours. Women cook loads of gujiya, mathri and papri. At some places specially in the north women also make papads and potato chips at this time.
Season of Bloom
Holi is also called the Spring Festival - as it marks the arrival of spring the season of hope and joy.
Legends
A Hindu festival, Holi has various legends associated with it. The foremost is the legend of demon King Hiranyakashyap who demanded everybody in his kingdom to worship him but his pious son, Prahlad became a devotee of Lord Vishnu. Hiranyakashyap wanted his son to be killed. He asked his sister Holika to enter a blazing fire with Prahlad in her lap as Holika had a boon which made he immune to fire. Story goes that Prahlad was saved by lord himself for his extreme devotion and evil minded Holika was burnt to ashes, for her boon worked only when she entered the fire alone.Since that time, people light a bonfire, called Holika on the eve of Holi festival and celebrate the victory of good over evil and also the triumph of devotion to god. Children take special delight in the tradition and this has another legend attached to it. It says that there was once an ogress DhundhiHolika Dahan'. who used to trouble children in the kingdom of Prithu. She was chased away by children on the day of Holi. Therefore, children are allowed to play pranks at the time of '
Some also celebrate the death of evil minded Pootana. The ogress tried to Lord Krishna as an infant by feeding it poisonous milk while executing the plan of Kansa, Krishna's devil uncle. However, Krishna sucked her blood and brought her end. Some who view the origin of festivals from seasonal cycles believe that Pootana represents winter and her death the cessation and end of winter.
In South India, people worship Kaamadeva- the god of love and passion for his extreme sacrifice. According to a legend, Kaamadeva shot his powerful love arrow on Lord Shiva to revoke his interest in the worldly affairs in the interest of the earth. However, Lord Shiva was enraged as he was in deep mediation and opened his third eye which reduced Kaamadeva to ashes. Though, later on the request of Rati, Kaamadeva's wife, Shiva was pleased to restore him back.

On the eve of Holi, called Chhoti or Small Holi people gather at important crossroads and light huge bonfires, the ceremony is called Holika Dahan. To render greatfulness to Agni, god of Fire, gram and stalks from the harvest are also offered to Agni with all humility. Ash left from this bonfire is also considered sacred and people apply it on their foreheads. People believe that the ash protects them from evil forces.
Play of Colors
Bright colours of gulal and abeer fill the air & people pour colour water over each other. Children take special delight in spraying colours on one another with their pichkaris and throwing water balloons and passers by. Women and senior citizen form groups called tolis and move in colonies - applying colours and exchanging greetings. Songs, dance on the rhythm of dholak and mouthwatering Holi delicacies are the other highlights of the day.
Expression of Love
Lovers too long to apply colours on their beloved. It is said that the naughty and mischievous Lord Krishna started the trend of playing colours. He applied colour on her beloved Radha to make her one like him. No wonder, there is no match to the Holi of Mathura, Vrindavan and Barsana - the places associated with the birth and childhood of Radha and Krishna.
Ecstasy of Bhang
There is also a tradition of consuming the very intoxicating bhang on this day to further enhance the spirit of Holi.
Sober Evening
After a funfilled and exciting day, the evenings the spent in sobriety when people meet friends and relatives and exchange sweets and festive greetings.
It is said the spirit of Holi encourages the feeling of brotherhood in society and even the enemies turn friend on this day. People of all communities and religions participate in this joyous and colouful festival and strenthen the secular fabric of the nation.
India, we wish you to always be in love and prosperity in flying colours of love for all ...
Unique & peculiar Holi celebrations
Lathmar Holi
the hub of holi in India - Barsana, Holi is known as Lathmaar Holi. The stick is in the hands of the women on this day and the men need to work a lot to save themselves from the immensely charged up womenfolk.
The birth place of Lord Krishna's beloved Radha, Barsana celebrates Holi with extreme enthusiasm as Krishna was famous for playing pranks on Radha and gopis. In fact, it was Krishna who started the tradition of colours by first applying colour on Radha's face.
Men of Nandgaon, the birthplace of Krishna, come to play Holi with the girls of Barsana, but instead of colours they are greeted with sticks. Men come fully padded and try their best to escape from the spirited women. The unlucky ones are forcefully led away and get a good thrashing from the women. Further, they are made to wear a female attire and dance in public. All in the spirit of Holi.
Next day, it is the turn of men of Barsana. They reciprocate by invading Nandgaon and drench the womenfolk of Nandgaon in colours of kesudo, naturally occurring orange-red dye and palash. This day, women of Nadagow beat the invaders from Barsana. It is a colourful site.

Kyu pyar karte ho tum ..
Kyu pyar karte ho itna
mujhse tum itna batao
ki ek pal bhi tum bin
ji nahi pata hu main
meri har ek sans mein
kyu hai bas teri hi khusbu
har dua me sajda me
sirf teri hi tamanna ho na jaun main kahi
har kisi se door ab
rasta bhatak na jaun kahi
tere khayal me itna hu gum
jaam jitna bhi bhar lu
paimane me main magar
khumar chadhta hi nahi
kya karu kuch to bata
deewana main ban sa gaya
koi bhi ho saamne
baat karta tum se hu
kyu pyar itna ho karte
ab to aa ke bol do
zindagi ki raat me
ab sehar mujhko bhi do..

Sudama wz dearest to bhagwan...

u hv spent yrs takin pics of beggars taking 2000 clips, hw many times u've embraced them or tried to get them free into a school.. or provided free treatment to them.. i m sorry if u might hv done tht or more... but u hv no right to say them things.. i m sorry if my words hurt u.. but pl dont behave inhumane!
more, our another big NGO run 12 madarsas free for education, several stiching... See More schools,and a few free computer education centres totally free for poor, and an old age home..
u need not to give logics of developed or underdeveloped, these are mere terms tht u must understand with heart..
i hv no attacking attitude on ur ego, nor i know u... i just need to give a small message of giving unconditional love to all without differentiation thts wt we belief in.. my friends who might hv been reading this knows me better...
my friend gawrav sinha is a professional amateur photographer, a great artist, and a renowned graphic designer attached with times grp, i know his views abt ppl not to call them things and putting no disrepected comments on them or their mentality unless u work hard to improve them..
i finally say i hv no intention to hurt ur ego.. but i wish u to change ur views abt life..
i wud like to know wt others wud like to comment on my and ur views ... critics judge better..
DONT TAKE IT PERSONALLY
I already said, we dont collect money in funds, we pay from our wallet personally comprising a group of selected dedicated people.. we hv a pious belief of serving, dare not to be ... See Morecomapred with any professional grp... Madarsas, computer institutes, and silai centres students are partially getting funds, our students here are eraning with small scale home silai jobs. I am working at grassroot level, with no intention of geting a recognition or media projection, i repeat its totally strictly dedicated work.. so it must nt be taken as a joke in any case... u turned ur arrow abt my ngo work and and i re-turn to give u a small honest message tht dont take poor ppl as 'THINGS'. its due to all these poor laborours or farmers u are getting food from farms or relaxing at ur their made houses etc.
my message is not to challenge u or discuss stupid things, but i just convey a messasge to u and all to not differentiate betn u and ur brother humans...
Hasan rightly said, to just return their basic human rights tht cn change their life, nt comment on stupid datas..
"Be Humble to all those who breath, and then God will give u a life with contented breath, and let u die with forgiven breaths at ease."

Still, my only fight is not to denote them as "THINGS" and nothing else..
give respect to life and life respects U..
My Good wishes to you all who think and make at least single effort towards a noble mission..
