Let Us Fly Together- We Are One!

 

Makara Sankranti is a festival day in the Hindu calendar, dedicated to the deity Surya (sun). It is the mark for farmers that the sun is back and that harvest season is approaching which is called Makara Sankranti/Mahasankranti.

The festivities associated with Makara Sankranti are known by various names, such as Magha Sankranti in Nepal, Magh Bihu in Assam, Maghi (preceded by Lohri) in Punjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh, popular amongst both the Hindus and Sikhs, Sukarat in central India, Thai Pongal in Tamil Nadu, Ghughuti in Uttarakhand Makara Sankranti in Odisha, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Goa, West Bengal (also called Poush Sankranti) and Uttar Pradesh (also called Khichidi Sankranti) or as Sankranthi in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

This is a festival of sweetness because of til-gul where sesame and jaggery laddoos or chikkis are served among all. It makes people closer as it is sprinkled with love and sugared with care. People together does the kite flying believing it as a tradition as well all their worries flies in air.



Makar Sankranti is believed to be a period for peace and success. The day is regarded as important for spiritual practices and accordingly people take a holy dip in rivers, especially Ganga, Yamuna, Godavari, Krishna and Cauvery. The bathing is believed to wash away sins.

The festival is one of bonding where every member of society is asked to bury all the enemies and foes and live with peace. Makar Sankranti generally marks the beginning of the Kumbh Mela in Uttar Pradesh while in South India, in Kerala, one of the most austere and difficult pilgrimages of Shabrimala ends on this auspicious day. This day if someone dies his soul reaches to Lord. He attains Moksha.

I believe that yes, it is the time of harvesting purity in mind and leaving the weeds aside. Let us shower all our feelings and make all our relations as til-gul, sweetened and delicious. Let go of worries and let all of us fly high with lovely colours.

Say To One And All-

We Love! We Care! We Provide Shoulders! We Fly Together! We Are One!

Happy Makar Santranti!

Formality - The Vague

As per the dictionary Formality means strictly conventional behaviour. Yes, it has the capacity to spread negative vibes at the fastest speed because formality in my point of view means showing of the fake emotions in front of the person which is of zero value. Even sometimes that includes back biting too. Means as and when formality enters people become two faced.  Misunderstanding, miscommunication, loss of love, jealousy and anger, because of these evils the baby named “Formality” is born. This baby grows stronger day by day and the result is the real attachment dies. Hence, let our formal behaviour die and let it give birth to the unconditional love. Even the formal education will make you a living but self education will make you a fortune. Yes, above were the restrictions of Formality but what if this Formality is vanished from the universe??? Only genuine relations will prevail and love will be endless. Happiness will be at the infinity and the smiles everyw...

Ingredients of True Relationship

My mind was literally desperate to write on this topic seeing today’s era  forgetting the true essence of LOVE . On one or the other day you see that celebrities are separated after so many years of love, other way you see the extra marital affairs, next you also see feeling suddenly transfer to other person. Why the LOVE has become so weak? Why that strength is not there to heal and trust each other? Why we move to another partner? Why getting divorced after kids?  These kinda LOVE is hurting me and breaking me from inside. So, I am pointing here some psychological facts which might help us to heal our relations.  First of all our life is too small to break and get again the new one.  If you are having that “ONE” which you feel soulful connection than never leave them because some day we are surely gonna miss that “ONE” when we are apart. Value “Human” and not the “Materiality of them”. Nobody is perfect and nobody’s relation is perfect we just have to put those i...

Saving Porbandar Sea: The Need to Tackle Harmful Textile Chemicals from Jetpur

The Porbandar Sea, a vital part of Gujarat’s coastal ecosystem, is under severe threat due to the discharge of harmful chemicals from textile industries in Jetpur. Renowned for its textile printing, Jetpur contributes significantly to the economy, but the environmental cost is alarming. Effluents laden with toxic dyes, chemicals, and untreated wastewater flow into the Bhadar River, which ultimately drains into the Arabian Sea, jeopardizing marine biodiversity and human livelihoods. The Environmental Impact Chemical-laden wastewater disrupts the delicate marine ecosystem. Toxic dyes accumulate in the sea, affecting coral reefs, fish, and other aquatic organisms. Species that rely on clean water are vanishing, which directly impacts the fishing communities around Porbandar. Additionally, these pollutants enter the food chain, posing health risks to humans who consume contaminated seafood. Why Action is Necessary Porbandar’s sea is not just a natural treasure; it is a cornerst...
