Going BANANAS

2014-05-26T15:39:00.002+05:30

A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class about bananas. He said the expression 'going bananas' is from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on:

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!
This is interesting.
After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey.. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system..

Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A banana a day keeps the doctor away!'

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time! I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth. Amazing fruit !!!

The Problem is YOU,

The Solution is YOU

By- Swami Dayananda Saraswati

Download the complete Book (27 Pages)

The book starts like this...

1. THE PROBLEM

Two Types of Problems:

There are two types of problems in life; one is a problem of which the
solution lies outside the problem; the other is a problem for which the
solution is within the very problem.

The problems of food, clothing, shelter, etc. belong to the first category;
one has to seek solution outside. Take the problem of hunger. One has to
go in for food in order to appease the hunger. Here the solution, food,
lies outside the problem hunger. If you do not have a shelter, you have to
get since it is not available with you; it is outside you. Therefore you
have to seek the solution in an external situation. There are many
problems of this kind in our individual life, in our social life, in our
national life. These may be called situational problems and they can be
solved by planning and effort, taking into account the resources at our
disposal.

Republic Day..

2014-01-26T13:38:00.004+05:30

In Bharat, Republic Day honours the date on which the Constitution of Bharat came into force on 26 January 1950 replacing the Government of Bharat Act (1935) as the governing document of Bharat.

The Constitution was passed by the Constituent Assembly of Bharat on 26 November 1949 but was adopted on 26 January 1950 with a democratic government system, completing the country's transition toward becoming an independent republic.

It is one of three national holidays in Bharat, other two being Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti.

Agni-IV missile successfully test fired

2014-01-21T12:13:00.001+05:30

Agni-IV, the 4000 kms range Nuclear Capable Ballistic Missile was successfully launched at 1052 hrs on Monday from the wheeler island off the coast of Odisha.

India’s nuclear deterrence programme received a boost on Monday when its Agni-IV, a surface-to-surface missile with a range of about 4,000 km, was successfully test-fired from the Wheeler Island, off the Odisha coast. The Agni-IV is a strategic missile which can carry a nuclear warhead weighing one tonne. The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), which developed the missile, did the test-firing. This was the third success in a row for Agni-IV. Its first success came in November 2011 and the second in Sepetmber 2012.

Avinash Chander, Scientific Advisor to the Defence Minister and DRDO Director-General, said “the mission went off perfectly well” with Agni-IV reaching a height of about 850 km and achieving its full range of 4,000 km. The success “opens a new missile ready for induction” into the Army, he said.

A team from the Army “participated in the launch and was involved in all preparations for the launch,” he added. The missile would be handed over to the user now and its serial production would start.

Mr. Chander said the success had ramped up the nation's “deterrence to a higher level of preparedness and effectiveness.” The missile was fired from a road-mobile launcher. This meant it “can be moved anywhere in the country and this is its main strength.”

Radar stations at Port Blair, Chandipur, Balasore and Pardip tracked the missile’s entire trajectory including the terminal event, that is, the detonation of the warhead.

Asked whether the missile had a dummy warhead in this flight, Mr. Chander said it carried “the entire warhead minus the nuclear part.” Ravi Gupta, Director, Public Interface, DRDO, said the launch took place at 10.52 a.m. and the flight lasted about 20 minutes. The missile’s terminal event took place over the Indian Ocean.

Agni-IV is a two-stage missile. It weighs 17 tonnes and is 20 metres long. Senior officers from the Odisha Government watched the launch from the Wheeler Island. .

PTI adds:

“The state-of-the-art Ring Laser Gyros based high accuracy INS (INS) and Micro Navigation System (MINGS) complementing each other in redundant mode have been incorporated into the missile system in guidance mode,” DRDO sources said.

The sophisticated missile is lighter in weight and has two stages of solid propulsion. The payload, with a re—entry heat shield can withstand temperature of more than 3000 degree Celsius, a defence scientist said.

Cryogenics - you must know what it is..

2014-01-11T18:55:00.000+05:30

Recently , in our country , ISRO scientists launched the first successful cryogenic fuel based rocket for the GSLV-D5 mission . This is an achievement for which all the countrymen should be proud of. Below is the brief introduction of cryogenics.

In physics, cryogenics is the study of the production and behaviour of materials at very low temperatures (below -150 °C,-238 °F or 123 K).

The flight-test of GSLV with indigenous cryogenic engine, called off ten days ago following a leak in the second stage of the rocket, is now expected to take place only in December, Indian Space Research Organisation said on Wednesday.

ISRO has started the process of de-stacking the rocket and the second stage would be shifted to Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC), a facility of the space agency located at Mahendragiri in Tamil Nadu, for an investigation into the cause of the leakage.

The launch of the GSLV-D5, scheduled for 1650 hrs on August 19 from the Sriharikota spaceport was called off, as a leak was observed in the UH25 fuel system of the liquid second stage during the pre-launch pressurisation phase on the vehicle just two hours before the scheduled lift-off.

The propellants were later drained from the cryogenic stage, liquid second stage and the four liquid Strap-ons of GSLV-D5. The rocket was moved back to the vehicle assembly building.

An ISRO official told PTI in Bangalore on Wednesday that the first and third stage of GSLV would be “preserved” while the second stage would have be built again, a process which has already started.

ISRO would be busy with the Mars Orbiter mission in the next two months. “We can expect the GSLV flight in December”, the official said.

ISRO has drawn flak from some quarters for using an “old tank” for the second stage as the materials used for building it were “prone for delayed cracks”. It was said have been delivered to ISRO four-years ago and was to be the last in the series of the kind that ISRO planned to use.

A senior space scientist called it a “gross error of judgement” on the part of ISRO which obviously seemed to focus more on the third (cryogenic) stage, as the first two were a “given” as it’s similar to the proven PSLV, the workhorse launcher.

GSLV is a three stage vehicle that is 49 metre tall, with 414 tonne lift-off weight. First stage comprises S125 solid booster with four liquid (L40) strap-ons. Second stage (GS2) is liquid engine and the third stage (GS3) is a cryostage.

The final/third stage of GSLV is the cryogenic stage, which is more efficient compared to the liquid stage in PSLV.

This means that the thrust developed by burning each kg of propellant is higher in cryo engine, hence can place larger payloads with higher weight into orbit.

“Cryo stage as final stage is hence essential for a launcher with higher payload capacity”, an ISRO official said.

PSLV is capable of launching 1600 kg satellites in 620 km sun-synchronous polar orbit and 1050 kg satellite in geo-synchronous transfer orbit (GTO).

“This poses a serious limitation on launching communication satellites which are heavier. The GSLV will be capable of launching satellites which are 2000 kg-2500kg which matches with the GSAT class of Communication satellites”, it was noted.

Currently, India is forced to outsource the launch services from abroad which are not a cost effective solution. The establishment of a proven GSLV launcher is the need of the hour. The successful development of indigenous cryo stage will boost India’s confidence in terms of its self-reliance in the launch capability, ISRO officials said.

..Transfer Of Power Agreement..

2013-05-08T12:43:00.000+05:30

आप सोच रहे होंगे कि 'सत्ता के हस्तांतरण की संधि' ये क्या है ? आज पढ़िए सत्ता के हस्तांतरण की संधि ( Transfer of Power Agreement ) अर्थात भारत की स्वतंत्रता की संधि. ये इतनी भयावह संधि है कि यदि आप अंग्रेजों द्वारा सन 1615 से लेकर 1857 तक किये गए सभी 565 संधियों अथवा कहें कि षडयंत्र को जोड़ देंगे तो उस से भी अधिक भीषण और भयावह संधि है ये. 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात्रि को जो कुछ हुआ था वो वास्तव में स्वतंत्रता नहीं आई थी अपितु ट्रान्सफर ऑफ़ पॉवर का एग्रीमेंट हुआ था पंडित नेहरु और लोर्ड माउन्ट बेटन के बीच में.

Transfer of Power और Independence ये दो अलग विषय हैं.स्वतंत्रता और सत्ता का हस्तांतरण ये दो अलग विषय हैं एवं सत्ता का हस्तांतरण कैसे होता है ? आप देखते होंगे क़ि एक पार्टी की सरकार है, वो चुनाव में पराजित जाये, दूसरी पार्टी की सरकार आती है तो दूसरी पार्टी का प्रधानमन्त्री जब शपथ ग्रहण करता है, तो वो शपथ ग्रहण करने के तुरंत पश्चात एक रजिस्टर पर हस्ताक्षर करता है, आप लोगों में से बहुतों ने देखा होगा, तो जिस रजिस्टर पर आने वाला प्रधानमन्त्री हस्ताक्षर करता है, उसी रजिस्टर को 'ट्रान्सफर ऑफ़ पॉवर' की बुक कहते हैं तथा उस पर हस्ताक्षरके पश्चात पुराना प्रधानमन्त्री नए प्रधानमन्त्री को सत्ता सौंप देता है एवं पुराना प्रधानमंत्री निकल कर बाहर चला जाता है.यही नाटक हुआ था 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात्रि को 12 बजे.लार्ड माउन्ट बेटन ने अपनी सत्ता पंडित नेहरु के हाथ में सौंपी थी, और हमने कह दिया कि स्वराज्य आ गया | कैसा स्वराज्य और काहे का स्वराज्य ? अंग्रेजो के लिए स्वराज्य का अर्थ क्या था ? और हमारे लिए स्वराज्य का आशय क्या था ? ये भी समझ लीजिये | अंग्रेज कहते थे क़ि हमने स्वराज्य दिया,अर्थात अंग्रेजों ने अपना राज आपको सौंपा है जिससे कि आप लोग कुछ दिन इसे चला लो जब आवश्यकता पड़ेगी तो हम पुनः आ जायेंगे | ये अंग्रेजो की व्याख्या (interpretation) थी एवं भारतीय लोगों की व्याख्या क्या थी कि हमने स्वराज्य ले लिया तथा इस संधि के अनुसार ही भारत के दो टुकड़े किये गए एवं भारत और पाकिस्तान नामक दो Dominion States बनाये गए हैं | ये Dominion State का अर्थ हिंदी में होता है एक बड़े राज्य के अधीन एक छोटा राज्य, ये शाब्दिक अर्थ है और भारत के सन्दर्भ में इसका वास्तविक अर्थ भी यही है. अंग्रेजी में इसका एक अर्थ है "One of the self-governing nations in the British Commonwealth" तथा दूसरा "Dominance or power through legal authority "| Dominion State और Independent Nation में जमीन आसमान का अंतर होता है | मतलब सीधा है क़ि हम (भारत और पाकिस्तान) आज भी अंग्रेजों के अधीन ही हैं. दुःख तो ये होता है कि उस समय के सत्ता के लालची लोगों ने बिना सोचे समझे अथवा आप कह सकते हैं क़ि पूरी मानसिक जागृत अवस्था में इस संधि को मान लिया अथवा कहें सब कुछ समझ कर ये सब स्वीकार कर लिया एवं ये जो तथाकथित स्वतंत्रता प्राप्त हुई इसका कानून अंग्रेजों के संसद में बनाया गया और इसका नाम रखा गया Indian Independence Act अर्थात भारत के स्वतंत्रता का कानून तथा ऐसे कपट पूर्ण और धूर्तता से यदि इस देश को स्वतंत्रता मिली हो तो वो स्वतंत्रता, स्वतंत्रता है कहाँ ? और इसीलिए गाँधी जी (महात्मा गाँधी) 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात को दिल्ली में नहीं आये थे. वो नोआखाली में थे और कोंग्रेस के बड़े नेता गाँधी जी को बुलाने के लिए गए थेकि बापू चलिए आप.गाँधी जी ने मना कर दिया था. क्यों ? गाँधी जी कहते थे कि मै मानता नहीं कि कोई स्वतंत्रता मिल रही है एवं गाँधी जी ने स्पष्ट कह दिया था कि ये स्वतंत्रता नहीं आ रही है सत्ता के हस्तांतरण का समझौता हो रहा है और गाँधी जी ने नोआखाली से प्रेस विज्ञप्ति जारी की थी | उस प्रेस स्टेटमेंट के पहले ही वाक्य में गाँधी जी ने ये कहाकि मैं भारत के उन करोड़ों लोगों को ये सन्देश देना चाहता हूँ कि ये जो तथाकथित स्वतंत्रता (So Called Freedom) आ रही है ये मै नहीं लाया | ये सत्ता के लालची लोग सत्ता के हस्तांतरण के चक्कर में फंस कर लाये है | मै मानता नहीं कि इस देश में कोई आजादी आई है | और 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात को गाँधी जी दिल्ली में नहीं थे नोआखाली में थे | माने भारत की राजनीति का सबसे बड़ा पुरोधा जिसने हिन्दुस्तान की आज़ादी की लड़ाई की नीव रखी हो वो आदमी 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात को दिल्ली में मौजूद नहीं था | क्यों ? इसका अर्थ है कि गाँधी जी इससे सहमत नहीं थे | (नोआखाली के दंगे तो एक बहाना था वास्तव में बात तो ये सत्ता का हस्तांतरण ही थी) और 14 अगस्त 1947 की रात्रि को जो कुछ हुआ है वो स्वतंत्रता नहीं आई .... ट्रान्सफर ऑफ़ पॉवर का एग्रीमेंट लागू हुआ था पंडित नेहरु और अंग्रेजी सरकार के बीच में. अब शर्तों की बात करता हूँ , सब का उल्लेख करना तो संभव नहीं है परन्तु कुछ महत्वपूर्ण शर्तों की उल्लेख अवश्य करूंगा जिसे एक आम भारतीय जानता है और उनसे परिचित है ...............

Holi

2013-03-28T18:56:00.001+05:30

Holi or Holika

By Swami Harshananda Ramakrishna Math, Bangalore

Holi or Holika, also called holikotsava, is an extremely popular festival observed throughout the country (India). It is especially marked by unmixed gaiety and frolics and is common to all sections of the people.

This festival is very ancient. Known originally as ‘Holika’ it has been mentioned in very early religious works such as Jaimini’s Purvamimamsa-sutras and Kathaka-grhya-sutras.

It must have therefore existed several centuries before Christ.

It was at first actually a special rite performed by married women for the happiness and well-being of their families and the full moon (Raka) was the deity worshipped by them.

There are two ways of reckoning a lunar month: purnimanta and amavasyanta.

In the former, the first day starts after the full moon; and in the latter, after the new moon. Though the latter reckoning is more common now, the former was very much in vogue in the earlier days. According to this purnimanta reckoning, Phalguna purnima was the last day of the year and the new year heralding the Vasanta-rtu (with spring starting from next day). Thus the full moon festival of Holika gradually became a festival of merrymaking, announcing the commencement of the spring season. This perhaps explains the other names of this festival: Vasanta-Mahotsava and Kama-Mahotsava.

According to the stories in the Puranas and various local legends, this day is important for three reasons.

It was on this day that Lord Siva opened his third eye and reduced Kamadeva (the god of love, Cupid or Eros) to ashes.
It was on this day that Holika, the sister of the demon king Hiranyakasyapu, who tried to kill the child devotee Prahlad by taking him on her lap and sitting on a pyre of wood which was set ablaze. Holika was burnt to ashes while Prahlad remained unscathed!
It was again on this day that an ogress called Dhundhi, who was troubling the children in the kingdom of Prthu (or Raghu) was made to run away for life, by the shouts and pranks of the mischievous boys. Though she had secured several boons that made her almost invincible, this – noise, shouts, abuses and pranks of boys – was a chink in her armour due to a curse of Lord Siva. The day itself came to be called ‘Adada’ or ‘Holika’ since then.

The day is also celebrated as the birthday of Sri Krsna Chaitanya (A.D. 1486-1533), mostly in Bengal, as also in Puri (Orissa), Mathura and Vrndavan (in Uttar Pradesh).
