Entering teenage-hood

08th November'2016 was his birthday. He became an 15 year's boy & on this day, i was praying to lord for your better-hood, peace, harmony & all his dreams come true....Prayer doesn't just happen when we kneel or put hands together and focus and expect things from God

Instead...

When you hug a friend - That's a prayer

When you cook something to nourish family and friends- That's a prayer

When we send-off our near and dear ones and say 'Drive Safely' or 'Be Safe'- That's prayer

When you are helping someone in need by giving your time and energy - You are praying

Prayer is a Vibration- A feeling - A thought.

Prayer is the voice of love, friendship, genuine relationships

Thinking positive and wishing good for others - That is prayer

Thinking positive and wishing good for others - That is prayer

I am sure you are keeping Dhyeya while you pray on his birthday....

Happy Birthday to my dear Darling who is entering into teenage-hood.....

The Investiture ceremony

Today is Dhyeya’s last exam & he will be free bird for few days.

Even though exams are over but he was not looking happy. On my repeated request he told me that now he won’t get opportunity to be council member in following year & he will be needed to hand over the baton to his junior student. His smart casual blazer, badge, scaff needs to handover to following council members.

He started remembering his ceremony of the Investiture ceremony is the first celebration in a school. It was scheduled in the first month of June, beginning of new academic year. Investiture ceremony is one of the most important events of any school. All school kids, old council members & school management entrust faith and hope in newly appointed school council. Dhyeya has obtained leadership role & he feels very proud and responsible citizen while taking an oath. The celebration on that very day makes every child who is elected as leader feel proud as well as sense of responsibility to be leaders in making for tomorrow.

The Students Council induction is a memorable day for all office bearers, a proud moment to stand as leaders before their fellow mates. The school commences the scholastic year with pomp and aura of the Investiture Ceremony of the Student’s Council. The members of the council attired in smart, formal apparel, who introduce themselves to shoulder their responsibilities. The chief guest from Indian Navy, Times Of India Group & Doctors leads them to the oath taking ceremony and enables the leaders, realize their responsibilities and to be humane. The solemn occasion prevails as the badges are pinned by the chief guest of the day and the speeches of assurance by the head boy and the head girl. Thereafter the Fine Arts Club hosts cultural events like dance, drama, mime, group singing etc…

My grown up kid ready for taking charge of leadership for entire school. Investiture Ceremony @ Cambridge, He is leader of his leagues who believe in Discipline & activist leader for all divisions in school.

As a leader he stand, an online electronic poll was been done by all school members who has access to portal for school activities & payment gateway for school fees & bases on merit, he positioned himself to Opposition Leader. 

A proud leader & proud mother. Her all efforts are embanked for a standup leader. All school teachers & principal \who feels proud to take glimpse & selfie with her favorite student & finally with his class teacher who felt proud & happily asking both leaders to capture their happy moments. Smile please... a leader is coming …..Dhyeya Padhya…

Holi Celebration...

This was for the 1st time, I played Holi in my newly shifted apartment....Everyone in new building knows that I do lot of pranks with people but only limited to
my circle people...

How come we missed thandai (edible preparation of cannabis) & methi bhajia as it is important part of holi celebration...someone arranged a strong bhang from Madhav baug temple, CP tank &
due to heavy dose, one female had adverse kick...She was crying for no reasons for almost 2 hours...We try our best to regain her consciousness but all in vain...It was fun watching these scenes....

We had color blast holi as we had bought 12 kg of fragrance gulal (a Red powder) followed by DJing from my 150RMS Home theatre...

The fun was expecting to be end by p.m. as we had delicious Guajarati buffet in society premises... Myself, Shilpa & Dhyeya were about to proceeds for lunch & all of sudden my chaddi buddies friend bang my door to attacked me with gulal....After 2008 onwards, I always went out of Mumbai to celebrate Holi with this chaddi Buddies hence it was double fun to be playing Holi in Mumbai...U can see that in morning I was wearing black t-shirt/Bermuda & in noon, I was in green T-shirt/shorts..

Holi is one of my favorite festival that I never miss to celebrate with my near & dear ones & this time actually Holi is on Sunday means
SUNDAY IS "HOLI"DAY...

Every living soul on this planet loved their parents but very few people love others parent. Associated with well to do family, may not bring to such destitute elders in one's life.
Parents doesn't expect any expensive gadgets from their child but they are more than happy with the time, ones child give them, talk to them, give happy smile & take care of them but few human species on this earth abandon their parents & elderly man/women end up going to some ashram or temples who offers them food for life. During my Dwarka visit also I witness Importance of "Tula Daan"- the importance of food for such abandon elders.

Associated with few NGO's gives me thrill to do more for these elders. They were all bring under one roof from different ashram, mumbai roads & temples. All these elders need is,  to listen to our voices. We can never understand how lonely they feel without their kid. They have to celebrate most of the festivals without them. We can happily celebrate here with our friends but think about our parent (if you are not staying with them). Our presence is the only thing which can make them happy. But, we are not there with them (because of various reasons). It makes them sad but they don't make us realise that.

So, this is the least possible thing we can do to make these destitute elders happy & Would you even like extend your support for good cause then you message, whatsApp or call me...anytime, any day...

God & their pet animals

Recently one my close relative posted his experience with his kid anti-non vegetarians behaviour in posh Restaurant. His son reluctantly didn't ate non-veg food & his experience made me think of my prayers & love for these animals.

Every prayer, I make in my temple, made me think of all Animals/birds i loved & accompanied by our Hindu gods....

The Hindu faith, the cradle of which is India, is a religion which dotes upon the birds and animals. In fact, the religion has bestowed the fur, feathers and fins species the status of divinity by linking their multifarious gods and goddesses to various animals/birds.

The gods and goddesses in Hindu mythology travel in supersonic speed on these animals/birds. Different gods have different vahanas (animal vehicles). The literal meaning of the word ‘vahana’ is ‘that which carries, that which pulls’. Mesopotamian gods and goddesses were all associated with vahanas.

Every day, I pray to Lord Ganesha- who himself in the form of Elephant & accompanied by Mouse.
I pray to Lord Shiva- accompanied by Holy bull named Nandi & Cobra Snake around his neck.
I pray to Lord Krishna- accompanied by Holy Cow & Peakock.
I pray to Lord Surya- accompanied by White Horse.
I pray to Lord Vishnu- accompanied by Eagle called Garuda.
I pray to Lord Narsimha- who himself in the form of Lion.
I pray to godess Durga- who accompanied by Lion.
Indra the God of Rain comes with white elephant called Airavat.

I also pray tortoise in my temple for spreading peace & harmony...

Matsya (a fish) is one the form of Lord Vishnu...

I also pray to goodness Saraswati for giving me this knowledge & wisdom so that I m able write this, is also accompanied by white Swan....

If one loved Soul, one love every living being....& our Kids are role model for it....
