Political Activities Should Not Be Permitted Within The Universities And Educational Institutes.

When the Education System was introduced in India during the British era, it was designed to manufacture clerks to help the then administrators. That is why it was kept devoid of the philosophy of the human development in terms of self-respect, independence and more particularly, traditional Indian cultural values. They succeeded and unfortunately, even after political independence from the British Raj, the system was continued. In course of time, the dirty politics entered into the educational institutes to make the matter worse. Today, we find that majority of the students and the teachers participate in active politics more interestingly than pursuing the mission of their joining the institute.

Universities and colleges are always considered as a source of wisdom and knowledge for the human development. They are centres of hope, inspiration and research. Inventions and new discoveries in all walks of life are expected to take place. But unfortunately, we miss the environment suitable for such activities in majority of the Universities and Colleges of today. The suicide of Research Student Rohit Vemula has raised an opportunity for the discussion on the national level on the environment present in such educational institutes. The suicide committed by him is the most unfortunate and deplorable act. However, instead of making political statements, it needs to be considered deeply in context with the circumstances and the compulsions under which the student had to take this action. The political parties did not go through the reasons but involved the caste factor in the episode. Ousted from the main stream of the nation, the Congress and its Vice President, Rahul Gandhi did not go beyond demanding resignation from the Ministers of the Central Government. Even Trinmool Congress Party, silent over the violent disruption gusting the public properties into fire by a particular community in Malda District of West Bengal where it is ruling party, has turned aggressive on the issue which took place in other State. Similarly, other parties too have joined the band. It appears that they are willing to set the scores with Bhartiya Janta Party against the defeat in 2014 in the Lok Sabha Election. They are pursuing their narrow minded politics on the grave issue of the suicide committed by a student out of some frustration in the environment. No one is willing to give a little thought to the reasons of the frustration if any which compelled him to such a serious action. Why did Rohit who is reported to have been a promising Research Scholar opt for committing suicide instead of fighting out against the disciplinary proceedings, whether they were correct or wrong? Were not there other options available for him?

Patience and uninterrupted struggle are always permanent options to get through any problem. Though this matter is now being investigated at high level and the suspension of other students has been revoked, the politics players are still on the traditional crease of making allegations. Undoubtedly, some problems create disappointment. Some time, a self-centric citizen can get disappointment from the society and the Administration. But those people who have patience with positivity await for good days and try untiringly for solution of the problems. But our Universities and Educational Institutes do not have such environment which may inspire the students to be optimistic with the future. They boast of having many types of study disciplines within them. They do carry discussions in the seminars on the social concerns and provide opportunities to understand thoughtful politics in the country. It is good in national interest but when the universities and the educational institutes become the centre of political activities, their way of accomplishing the mission for which they are set up gets bewildered. It must be stopped. It is worth that we carry on discussion on nationalism, Secularism, Marxism, capitalism, Parliamentary System, democracy, election reforms etc. but the universities must not be made centres for caste-conflictions or pseudo political overtures. Sometime ago, in the campus of Hyderabad University, there took place an agitation to oppose the capital punishment to Yakub Menon who was convicted in the Mumbai Bomb Explosions. Right to express the opinions freely can not be granted to express opposition to the judicial pronouncements and sovereignty of the nation and such activities can not be called as general activities in the campus of any educational institute or university. There was some dispute between Ambedkar Students Association and All India Vidyarthi Board. The matter is under consideration before the Court, University and Police. In the meanwhile, Rohit committed suicide. He did not allege any particular party, leader or any officer of the University for any wrong. But the political parties and their leaders who are personally in opposition to the Bhartiya Janta Party and its leaders, are targeting them and the Central Government. It is true that the local MP and the Minister in the Central Government Mr.Bandaroo Duttatrey had made some correspondence. It is not unusual. Earlier, the Congress MP Mr. Hanumant Rao too made some correspondence in 2014. Central Human Resource Minister wrote to the University and the University too had taken appropriate action already. We can review about the action taken on the merit basis. The disciplinary action was taken against Rohit as a student on the same lines it was taken against other students. He was never targeted if that belonged to any particular caste. There was no particular consideration regarding Rohit’s individual caste factor for taking action against him. Unfortunately our biased political parties are making the issue of suicide as a caste-based issue to provoke social unrest disguisedly.

It is true that Indian Society has got many castes and faced caste-wise differences. For some time, we are feeling such differences to be reducing gradually. In the urban culture, they are disappearing. Moreover, the educational institutes and the universities are supposed to nurture the calibre without any discrimination. But due to vote bank policy being followed by the political parties, particularly by the regional parties, the caste impact is still there which is responsible to ignore the basic problem. Whenever any remedial action is proposed to be taken, the caste factor is put up to eliminate that remedial action. Why our Universities and education institutes are not able to produce high calibre students is due to the caste factor they have to follow under the political pressures. A student fails to get an opportunity to advance because he does not belong to any particular caste. His personal merit does not entitle him to have that opportunity and that creates frustration. The policy of using the students for political purposes is an old policy of the political parties. This policy is not liked by the meritorious students. The political parties favour their policy on the basis of getting good leaders like Arun Jaitely and Sita Ram Yachuri from the university corridors but we find that the leaders like Atal Bihari Bajpai does not have any such back ground. The Universities and Educational Institutes do not owe any responsibility to give good political leaders to the nation. They owe the duty to prepare dutiful and capable citizens to the nation.

It is said that Rohit who committed the suicide had never wished to become a Political leader. He was dreaming to become a philosopher, a scientist like Carl Sagon or some writer. Carl Sagon had intended to see the whole universe as a single entity. In opposition to his dream of becoming a scientist like Carl Sagon, Rohit could not overcome the pressures of the small world within his approach. He fainted down in the local overtures only and committed suicide due to his own weaknesses.

We must endeavour to make our Universities and Educational Institutes politics-free. The professional politicians take easy the political pressures but the young students can not afford to bear such pressures. We must ensure the Universities and Educational Institutes must not entertain any political activity. They must not permit any Association or Unions to develop or interfere in their affairs. Now, we must do everything possible to ensure to enhance optimism in the students towards their original mission of getting better education and how they become a source of wisdom and knowledge for the human development again. Political activities should, therefore, not be permitted within the Universities and Educational Institutes.

Be Happy – We Need To Change Our Attitude.

It is human psychology that we prefer pleasures. But it is a known fact that almost every pleasure seeks some sacrifice unless that is bestowed upon us by some divine power. When we find ourselves in chilling winter, we hear, “It's Freezing! When will it be summer?" To our children, we try to explain that winter is just one of our seasons, and soon enough summer will arrive. They may not get convinced easily and perhaps may add, “But it is freezing cold. There's snow and ice everywhere. We can't even go out to play it is so cold." Since we know their innocence and our duty to quench their curiosity, some time we have to say, "We just have to enjoy the cold and wait for summer. It will get better." They may not understand that they have to go through winter and spring before summer arrives. They just knew it was cold and thought it would be that way forever.

They don't realize that it will get better, it will get warmer and they will get to play in the park again. They just know today is cold, yesterday was cold and for a while they haven't been able to play on the monkey bars in the park. And they want to know why it isn't summer. We all want things to get better now. You want certain things to get better in your life right now and you can get what you want. If things aren't going the way you want think of it as your winter period. It will get better, it won't stay this way forever, but first you have to create the changes you want.

During winter, it seems like nothing is growing or improving. But deep underground, the roots of trees, plants and grass are all getting their nourishment, and storing what they need to sprout in spring. And just like nature is constantly at work, you're always feeding your subconscious mind. You're either giving it the nourishment and information it needs to make your life better, or you're giving it the wrong information, the kind that makes your life harder.

If you want to enjoy greater success, if you want to make more money, meet the right person, get a better job, make the right choices, then you have to give your subconscious the right information. You have to feed your subconscious mind and inner powers the nourishment they need to bring you what you want. Just like mother nature is always at work, always giving us what we need at the right time, your subconscious and inner power are also constantly at work. Your subconscious and inner powers are always creating and shaping your life. You don't see them actively doing this. They just work quietly in the background. They create and shape your life based on what you feed them and how you direct them.

If you wanted to have a beautiful looking lawn, flower or vegetable garden you would have to take care of them. You'd have to give them the right combination of  food, seeds, water, and nourishment. You'd also have to spend plenty of time removing the weeds, and getting rid of any unwanted plants that could destroy your garden. This all takes time and requires patience. But with the right techniques and by doing the right combination of things you'll see the payoff within a few short months. You may not be a gardener, you may not even have a garden, and you may never want one. But you do have a mind, a subconscious mind and you  have your inner powers. You need to feed them the right information (food), nourish them and constantly give them the right direction (like water to a garden). Then you have to be patient, continue working, continue applying the right techniques and continue doing the right combination of things.

When you will continue to hammer upon something, one day you'll see the payoff. It all requires practice and discipline. So today think about what you want in a few short months. Now begin directing your subconscious mind and your inner powers by giving them the right information and the right directions so that you get what you want in those few short months You know, Nature is very powerful.  It can be very kind or it can be very destructive. Your subconscious is also very powerful. It can be very kind or it can make your life very difficult. While you can't control nature, you can control and direct your subconscious mind. This gives you tremendous power. Your subconscious and inner powers create your life based on your thoughts, beliefs and attitudes. When you have a garden filled with weeds you have to remove those weeds or they'll choke off all the wonderful plants, flowers and grass in your beautiful garden. If you take too long to remove them, they get stronger and they get harder to remove.

Negative thoughts, negative beliefs and a negative attitude are the weeds of the mind. If you don't remove them they'll choke off and destroy all that is good in your life. The longer they stay in place the harder they are to remove. But you can get rid of them. You can remove them. No matter how long those negative thoughts, negative beliefs, and negative attitudes have been on your subconscious mind you can get rid of them. The sooner you start the better. And you get rid of them by thinking about what you want and giving your subconscious mind new instructions, new thoughts, and new beliefs all of which lead to a new attitude.

Once those new thoughts and beliefs are planted on your subconscious you'll begin to see dramatic changes. Like spring, it will be a new beginning and a new awakening. You have the power to create and change your life. You have the power to get exactly what you want in life.That power is your subconscious mind. If you're not getting what you want, If you're not making enough money, If you're not in the right relationship, If you can't meet the right people, If things just aren't going the way you want. It means that you're not giving your subconscious mind 

the right information and you're not giving it  the right nourishment. You also have too many weeds on your subconscious and you need to get rid of those weeds today. 

You need to start using your power, begin creating exactly what you want, get your subconscious and your inner powers working for you today and get rid of the weeds that are destroying your life. How? It is quite simple. This can be done by you very easily.

You may ascertain your targets, identify your resources, chalk out your time-bound programme to achieve it, start working on it and continue till you achieve your targets without relaxing even for a minute.

Today in the era of global economical liberation, we find that at one hand, we are seeing growing needs and fatty pockets and on the other hand, we see recession and deaths due to unemployment etc. A great imbalance! Some countries have sufficient resources of raw materials but they do not have skills to exploit them to their benefits. Some other countries good market but lack infrastructure to move further.

All this is due to lack of proper management. Some time it happens due to the attitude of those who are supposed to manage them. Somewhere it is due to the working of the politicians who make and/or modify the laws to suit their specific needs. Somewhere, the bureaucrats are there to interpret the laws to meet their corrupt working. Sometime, some judicial officers work with a prior mind set-up. Not only these pillars of the democracy, sometime media, generally in private sector, also create hype in respect of a particular story as they might be doing in form of paid agents. The government media persons tell what the Government needs to be highlighted and sometime, the truth gets hidden.

In the global liberation created by fast moving communication and transport systems, we need to change our attitude to adjust with the new equations and try to reduce the opportunities of corruption in our practice. Once we do, we can ask other one to follow the same practice. If that one does not change, we can take the shelter of law to enforce our rights. But we need to perform our duties first. We need to change our attitude first, then to seek happiness for ourselves and others too.

Be Happy – We Need To Change Our Attitude.

Be Happy – Attempt on every Opportunity.

An opportunity means a favorable situation, a good chance to proceed ahead or you can call it a combination of the circumstances which may deem suitable for you to attempt upon for a positive result. If you fail in your process to bring about a positive result by attempting upon some opportunity, your failure may give you experience to attempt upon another opportunity, if available, more intelligently.

Opportunities abound, but in order to see more of them appear in your daily lives you must first be willing to accept this to be the case. Further, you must be willing to go after those opportunities with all you have. Make no mistake, they're called "opportunities", and not guarantees for a reason.

How would you use a set of the circumstances prevailing before you as a set of opportunities? It depends upon you how to proceed on. That said, while it will require effort, and persistence on your part to succeed, take heart, for if it were not so, success would be far more common, and as a result, most likely, far less valued.

Friend, from this moment on, You need to commit to yourself, that to the best of your ability, in all you do you will give your best, fully knowing that someone, often those who hold the keys to greater opportunities are taking notice of how you handle the seemingly "small things" which life asks of you. Even when we think no one is paying attention, there's always someone that notices. Always.

Take it granted that you are working for yourself – whether it is a social activity or you are operating an industrial or trading unit. Sometime to feed the physical demands of yourself and/or your dependants, the mental need or sometime, that may be towards your attempt to upgrade your social status too.

But if we can give our dead-level best to even the "small" things, then inevitably we will have the opportunity to show how we can handle the bigger challenges, which by the way bring with them far greater payoffs & rewards for delivering solutions.

Consider the following example. Let's say you want to teach someone to drive a vehicle. Furthermore, let's say you have two vehicles yourself, an older one, which drives fine, but has some age on it. And another, a new sports car. It's your pride and joy. Which vehicle are you going to take the first time driver out in? That's a no-brainer. The older of the two vehicles. Then, if you're feeling generous, after they've got driving all figured out you may let them drive your new sports car.

The same is true with life's opportunities, the ones which yield the bigger payoffs. We can't expect to just start off -- without someone entrusting us with the "keys to the kingdom" when we are just beginning. They have to get to know us, we have to prove to them, through our actions that we're capable of accomplishing whatever they ask of us. As we do, we build trust, and build a track record that we can in fact accomplish whatever we are tasked with.

We need to study each and every opportunity to ensure success towards our goal, if that opportunity is attempted upon. If we do, we can save a lot of time, energy and money in the process. Hit and Try is a good method if you do not have any previous experience or a guide to do so. When you do it by this process, you must attempt on the smaller risks, then go to the higher ones.

Be Happy – Attempt on every Opportunity.

Be Happy – Be Youthful.

The period of youth is pivotal for human development. Youth is a wonderful thing. In youth we learn; in age we understand. It is a critical period of personal change, when you consciously begin to explore and apply your knowledge, values and beliefs about individual and collective life. “There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.

In your young age, you take on new responsibilities, becoming agents of change in your communities. Sometime, you may feel yourself as problematic children but no, you are ray of light for the elders if you lend your helping hands seeing that one day, you may also come to that stage. Your age group provides tremendous source of intellectual and social potential waiting to be channeled and developed towards socially constructive ends.

People grow old only by deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away. Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.

It is true that the future will depend a great deal on the manner in which educational programs and methods are designed to release your latent potentials, preparing you for the world you may inherit. The connection between education and individual and collective wellbeing is well established and it is imperative to focus on a particular dimension of education, namely education in service of community which in our experience is central to the transmission of individual and community life.

Forces that influence the intellectual and emotional development of a child are not confined to the classroom. Media, technology, family, peers, the wider community and other social institutions convey messages that may be reinforcing in some respects and contradictory in others which could add to your confusion, about identity, moral purpose and social reality. As such formal education needs to go beyond the exclusive aim of helping you to secure gainful employment. Educational processes need to assist you to recognize and express your potential while developing in you the capacity to contribute to the spiritual and material prosperity of communities.

Usually, we divide our life span into three parts – our childhood starting from our birth. Our youth starting from our adolescence and our old age when we feel ourselves tired even to finish our daily routine. It is frankly admitted that during our childhood, we have to depend on others for meeting our own needs. But as soon as we attain our adolescence, we dream to reach heights of our life and start to scale those heights. With the passage of time, some of us do achieve the heights and some may not do but time factor impacts our age decreasing our productivity. Here, we need to be happy. For that purpose, we may have to awake ourselves and keep the sense of being youthful always alive after attaining adolescence and to the last breath. The day we start to feel that we are getting old, our worries regarding the security of our future may snatch peace of our minds. Hence, we need to eliminate our thoughts of being old.

If we keep ourselves youth always, we would like to maintain our body and spirits in the same way. It is essential to keep our energy and vigor up for which we may have to regularly undertake physical and mental exercises to tone up with some supplements as be prescribed by our health care taker. In the process, we may have to give up some of our addictions and demerits also for which we need to study ourselves to know what our weaknesses harm us and in what respects. If we introspect ourselves more vigorously and try to keep away those factors which are responsible to make us old whether they are physical, mental, financial or social, we would be able to keep ourselves young always. What are physical factors which can reduce your youthfulness? They can include extraordinary exertions, lack of proper medical services, long illness or injuries. Mental factors may include unpeaceful family life, indecent environment, inferiority complex etc. Financial troubles like unemployment, business loss or short of finance to meet the essential, social and other requirements can also affect your health. Social circumstances which are not conducive to your status or outlook may also lead you to break down. For being happy, you need to work hard to overcome such conditions. If you succeed, you will not be old at any time.

Be Happy – Be Youthful.

Be Happy – Meet the challenges of the youngsters having diabetes.

When people are diagnosed with diabetes, most of them are overwhelmed by the fact that they have this very serious disease. Some of them get frustrated or depressed, while others avoid a final diagnosis because they are in denial and don’t want to know that they are already diabetic.

We have to remember that living with diabetes is hard. This is why you need to understand people who have diabetes go through the denial phase. This disease can take a toll in a person's psychological health. Some get really depressed and stressed that it will aggravate the condition more.

Lifestyle changes should be made if you are suffering from diabetes. And, this can take quite a long time for the person suffering to get used to. Changing one's lifestyle is something that cannot be achieved overnight. Some may require dramatic intervention in order to get them to follow a diabetic lifestyle.

When people get depressed, most of them resort to overeating, drinking and even smoking. This is definitely something that diabetics should avoid. It may provide comfort at first but if you are a diabetic, then it can take a serious blow to your overall well-being.

If someone gets diagnosed with diabetes, they tend to go through the three emotions before they get to accept the disease as part of their life. They go through denial, anger, guilt. In the denial phase, people tend to use this emotion in order to avoid the changes they would have to make in their already comfortable life. Anger is also felt by people who get diagnosed by this disease. In most cases, they blame everyone. They blame their family, friends and they even blame their doctor for the disease. They also ask the question why they have to suffer from the disease.

Guilt is also another psychological phase that people who are diagnosed with diabetes go through. They tend to blame themselves for getting the disease and this can often lead to depression. Some even set out subconsciously to punish themselves for it.

Support from family and friends are important in order to minimize the depression they feel. By doing this, it will help in accepting the disease and that they have to live with it for the rest of their lives. The key here is to help the person suffering from diabetes to accept that they have the disease.

Another way to get the person diagnosed with diabetes to readily accept the disease as already part of their life is to educate them about diabetes. You have to remember that although diabetes is a very serious condition, there are ways to manage it effectively to the point that they will be able to live a normal life.

Once the person suffering from diabetes accepts that he or she has the disease, the easier it will be for them to live life. All it takes is a little support and education. Through these things, you can be sure that you will be able to help someone cope with diabetes.

Always keep in mind that diabetes can easily be managed if the person suffering from the disease accepts it and try to live with it as best he or she could. Through acceptance, life with diabetes will be easier for them to live.

Living With Diabetes: Diabetes in Teens and Young Adults

Diabetes is a disease that can affect everyone. Whatever the age, sex, and race are, diabetes can affect everyone. Today, there are more than 16 million Americans who suffer from this disease. And, 800 thousand new cases are diagnosed each year. Living with diabetes can be hard especially for teeages and young adults.

You have to consider that the rapid mental, physical and emotional growth of tens can add to the challenge in managing the disease. With the taking of insulin, monitoring blood glucose levels, and strictly following a meal plan, it can be very tiresome for teenagers and can really add to the difficulties of just being a teen.

Most teens tend to ease up on diabetes care and tend to act like everyone else. This is understandable as they are in the age where pressure from friends can really affect them.

Psychologically, you have to remember that the teen years are the years where the teen will test their limits, which includes testing his or her limits with diabetes. At some point, they will even refuse to adhere to their meal plans, skip insulin injections and they may even stop checking their blood glucose levels. In most cases, teens who do this suffer from the consequences of not taking the disease seriously. They may get hospitalized for DKA and can experience serious hypoglycemic actions. They often get discouraged in continuing testing their limits and will eventually try to follow the management care for diabetes.

However, there are some cases where teens refuse to do certain tasks in connection to the disease. Even if they experience the serious complications that diabetes has, some teens tend to consistently refuse to follow certain procedures in order to manage diabetes. As a parent, you need to find out why.

If you find out that the diabetes plan is too rigid, try adding more flexibility to it in order to make it easier for them to follow. Giving rewards is a great way to encourage them to follow the tasks designed to manage the disease. Set a goal in what he or she needs to achieve in order for them to be encouraged.

You also need to remember that the hormones that cause puberty can eventually affect the blood glucose levels. It can be very unpredictable and can really make diabetes a lot harder to manage. So, try to avoid blaming your teen for having high or low blood glucose levels. It may not be their fault and they may already be trying hard to keep it within the acceptable range.

Because of the unpredictable blood glucose levels that the hormones can cause, try encouraging your teen to work with you in order to solve the problems caused by this kind of situation. Instead of scolding them because of their unpredictable blood glucose levels, try to find a way to praise his or her efforts in trying to keep it in acceptable levels, especially if he or she gets frustrated with it.

These are the challenges that you need to expect when you are living with a teen affected by diabetes. Being a teen with diabetes is very hard, which is why you need to understand them more. With patience and perseverance as well as self discipline, your teen will be able to live a life that is as normal as possible.

The Challenges That You Should Expect In Children with Diabetes

It is a fact that having a child suffering from diabetes can pose new challenges and worries. It can be very stressful for parents and the child, and that it will seem that this is a death sentence to your child. However, children with diabetes can still live a full and normal life. With proper management, living with diabetes can be easy and normal.

Having an infant or toddler diagnosed with diabetes can be very frightening. They don’t know anything about the disease and it can really be challenging for parents to manage and treat the disease as the child have no way of communicating what they are feeling.

The same situation goes for preschoolers with diabetes. They really haven’t learned to recognize the symptoms of having low blood glucose level and they will never be able to tell others when they are feeling low. This is why it is very important to constantly check the blood glucose level of your child as often as possible.

However, you need to understand that the child may be frightened by lancets poking their fingers and regular insulin shots. You should expect that they will try anything in order to avoid it or at least try to delay it from getting them. It will help if the parents talk to the child and tell them that they know it hurts and also tell the children that they are being very brave. Stickers and rewards will help encourage the child to get the insulin shot or get pricked by the lancets for drawing blood for sample. Instead of scolding or threatening them with punishment, always use positive reinforcements.

However, keep in mind to avoid using food as rewards as this can lead to an unhealthy relationship with food.

You also need to keep in mind that children with diabetes can have the same fussy eating habits as other children who are not suffering from the disease. It is best not to force the child to eat the certain food you are offering them. Instead, try offering them a different kind of food, which is also good for their diabetic diet. You can also offer them juice or milk instead if they really don’t want to eat.

During school age, your children will start wanting to be like their peers. It will be often difficult for them to understand why they are different from other children as they need to take insulin and have to follow a certain meal plan. Usually, the best way to handle this kind of situation depends entirely on the personality of your child.

Some children wants to show off to their classmates about their condition, such as they try to check their blood glucose level themselves and even try giving themselves an insulin injection for show and tell. Some older children with diabetes even presented the disease as science projects. However, you need to keep in mind that there are children that will not want to bring the disease they are suffering from on center stage.

They prefer to keep quiet about it and it is important for you to let your children decide who to tell about their disease and how much to tell. However, it is important to tell teachers, coaches, family, and close friends about it in order for them to understand what your child is going through.

These are the challenges that you should expect when living with children with diabetes. It can be very challenging and depressing at first but after a while, you will see that you and your child will be able to adjust and live a normal and full life.
