Role of newspaper in modern age (By Pragya Kumar  )   Image By:- Sandeep It's still dark out there. Though the sun was quite visible in the sky but the dense fog opaque it's view for me.  Rubbing my hands to get rid of the morning numbness. I walked to the metaled road that hardly had any people.  I could see only a few morning walkers breathing out clouds of fog out of their mouth. I reached my working place. Grabbing the bundles of rough grey printed paper tied up altogether I started my duty. By the way, I did introduce myself, I am "Raja"( this is what people like to call me) and I distribute newspapers in an area of 10 km. My family has been working in the same field for many years and I carried the flag of this legacy when my father died. I really felt bad when my father woke up early and left for his work. Everytime he used to come back, I questioned him about his early departure. He said,"  you have no idea how much people love to read newspapers. And I a

Health Scenes- Deficiencies and achievement (By Pragya Kumar  )   Image By:- Sandeep We spent the last few years coughing to the winter breeze and sneezing to the summer showers. Licking up cones of ice cream in the chilly night and gargling the throat vigorously enough to wake the sleeping owls. Spending the sunday afternoon with beverages and potato chips and later cursing the weighing machine for bursting the cloud of obesity. We spent some days shrinking yourself because of the peer pressure and other days soothing our sweet tooth out of frustration. Life has always  been a roller coaster ride and our health  withers away with this ride.  Health is an unrecognized pursuit of our life. It is often overlooked because we are aiming  for money. It is human psychology to believe that money can heal all pain but if there is no human body left to bear the pain then what is the use of this wealth?  I believe when B. K. S Iyengar says that Health is a state of complete harmony of the body,

Martial Rape is a Crime (By Pragya Kumar )   Image By:- Darshika Singh The holy vermilion lining her trichion epitomized the Cosmo of marriage. A new beginning, new bondage, and a new family. The wells and bells of this day made her believe in a sonorous future that was waiting for her. She left the pedestal of her childhood with shredded tears and entered an opulent platform selcouthly. Walking to the whole iridescent, a girl never realizes the upcoming epiphany that guards the way. She never knew that her beaming hyena's snicker would be cascaded to disturbing screams. The folds of the sheet would yell her quivering tales. The welsh of her dignity would surround the aura. She never knew that her wings to fly would be chopped down to somnambulistic grief.  "MARITAL RAPE" is no different from RAPE, the four-letter word screams the same ineffable crime being committed repeatedly under a roof. Our consciousness shivers to know when people claim that sex is superficial for a

Jiols Entitlement Necessary? (By Pragya Kumar) Manifested in the realms of our epic, entitlement denied justice. The world saw the degradation of Duryodhan who was raised with the entitlement of a king. The world even witnessed Hilary Clinton claiming to be the president of the United States of America but the reality is sustained. Psychologically speaking entitlement implies the personality traits that are characterized to be perfect of a particular position or thing.  But the main question that borders is "What are the actual criteria of defining a personality trait as perfect? " Imagine if the fictional character of Amrendra Bahubali was a timid person with no caliber of ruling a prestigious court like Mahishmati, or Simba grew up to be a wanderer.  And if entitlement is the core of every human being then can Gautham Buddha be called a king as he chose Moksha over Life.  I understand the fact that sometimes the term entitlement is misleading. It is often confused with the

What is science by Ayurveda?    (By Pragya Kumar )   Image By:- Darshika Singh What is science by Ayurveda A soil which witnessed the birth of a divine, A soil which yields fertile minds,  A soil that lets the soul bind.  A soil that holds our Vedas together  A soil that plucks the scientific feather A soil that defines ayurvedic pleasures A soil that we definitely wanna worship forever.  Our soil once witnessed the steady walk of my gurus and saints with bountiful knowledge. Their knowledge of life, knowledge of the mind, and knowledge of souls.  This explicit urn of knowledge stands in parallel with the nature in all spirits which further yielded to the knowledge of medicine,  technology, and science that runs the world today.  Maya Tiwari defines Ayurveda as, not just about nutrition or herbology, it has a unique tool for diagnosis. The diagnosis of understanding the human constitution is different from person to person. Each one has a unique metabolic system.  What is Ayurveda?  Th

Is mental peace more important than money or are these just fancy quotes?    (By Pragya Kumar   )   Image By:- Darshika Singh On the recent death of the Sushant Singh Rajput, the social media was filled with the repeated posts of mental illness that the actor was going through. While scrolling through the screen the one thing which was being reiterated was that "Money can never buy you happiness". Osho talked,  "Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots". What exactly is happiness?  Happiness is fighting for cotton candy on the streets and finally acquiring it.  Happiness is getting a bicycle as a 9th Birthday gift.  Happiness is when your father stands beside you despite your mistake. Happiness is the first paycheck.  Happiness is the vermi

Creative Projects for Children  (By Pragya Kumar )   Image By:- Darshika Singh Tapping hard on the keys of the laptop, I was filling excel sheets. It was early morning and the whole house was messed up. My four-year-old toddler crawled to the sofa next to me and peeped into my work, tapping simultaneously on my hand.  I was so caught up in the work that I didn't realize his presence until I got irritated and messed up a few things. Agitated by his continuous nagging, I gave my phone to play before he tore apart my sheets.  He scrolled through the screen and I worked further. It's obvious that children learn by imitation. They imitate what we do and how we do. They are like soft clay which can be molded and nourished in all forms of ethics. A parent is highly responsible for a child's beaming creativity and curiosity. Nowadays with few taps on a mobile screen, we can exhibit various ideas to inculcate the creativity of a child.  The YouTube channels are plunged with videos o
