Suneung परीक्षा उस दिन प्लेन नही उड़ाए जाते, बैंक बंद रखी जाती है और मिलीट्री परेड भी बंद रखा जाता है! Student के समर्थन में यहाँ रखा जाता है चारो तरफ़ शांति का माहौल।



Suneung : कोरियन विद्यार्थी की जीवनकी निर्णायक परीक्षा
The College Scholastic Ability Test or CSAT

  



हर साल नवम्बर में साउथ कोरिया में विद्यार्थी अपने जीवन सबसे महत्वपूर्ण परीक्षा देते है। एक लंबी दौड़ मैराथन 8 घंटे की लगातार परीक्षा होती है। उस एक दिन जैसे आसमान से शुकून शांति बरसती है। उस दिन किसी भी प्रकार का सोर जो छात्रो को exam में खलेल पहोचाये वो नही किया जाता। उस दिन 
विमान जमीन पर ही रहते है। बैंक बन्द रहते है। यहाँ तक कि मिलीट्री परेड भी बंद रखा जाता है। 

The College Scholastic Ability Test or CSAT
संक्षिप्त रूप में कहे तो  Suneung
विद्यार्थी ने इसकी तैयारी में अपनी पूरी ज़िंदगी निचोड़ दी होती है। ये एग्जाम लगातार 8 घंटे तक चलता है।

CSAT को कोरिया के हाई-स्कूल पाठ्यक्रम पर आधारित प्रश्नों के साथ कॉलेज में अध्ययन करने की उम्मीदवार की क्षमता का परीक्षण करने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है। यह हाई-स्कूल शिक्षा का मानकीकरण करता है और कॉलेज में प्रवेश के लिए सटीक, जरूरी डेटा प्रदान करता है

इस परीक्षा में English, Mathematics, General Knowledge, के साथ साथ उम्मीदवारों का
 राष्ट्रीय भाषा ज्ञान और जानकारी कोरियाई ग्रंथों को आसानी से और सटीक रूप से पढ़ने, समझने और विश्लेषण करने की उनकी क्षमता पर किया जाता है। इसके विषय के 45 प्रश्नों को चार श्रेणियों में पुछा जाता है।
भाषण और लेखन,व्याकरण,पढ़ना,साहित्य

हालांकि CSAT को मूल रूप से कॉलेज के लिए आवश्यक शैक्षिक क्षमता का आकलन करने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया था, यह वर्तमान में हाई-स्कूल के छात्रों के लिए एक राष्ट्रीय स्नातक परीक्षा है। एक छात्र जिस विश्वविद्यालय में प्रवेश कर सकता है, उसका निर्धारण करके, यह दक्षिण कोरियाई शिक्षा में एक महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाता है। परीक्षण को इसकी दक्षता, योग्यता पर जोर और अच्छे अंतरराष्ट्रीय परिणामों के लिए उद्धृत किया गया है। परीक्षा देने वाले छात्रों में से, २० प्रतिशत हाई-स्कूल स्नातक हैं, जिन्होंने पिछले वर्ष अपना वांछित अंक प्राप्त नहीं किया था।





परीक्षा के दिन शेयर बाजार देर से खुलते हैं, और ट्रैफिक जाम से बचने और छात्रों को परीक्षण स्थलों तक आसानी से पहुंचने की अनुमति देने के लिए बस और मेट्रो सेवा को बढ़ाया जाता है। विमानों को ग्राउंड किया जाता है ताकि उनका शोर छात्रों को परेशान न करे। कुछ मामलों में, परीक्षा के लिए देर से आने वाले छात्रों को पुलिस अधिकारी उनके परीक्षण स्थल तक ले जाते हैं। छोटे छात्र और छात्रों के परिवारों के सदस्य उन्हें खुश करने के लिए परीक्षण स्थलों के बाहर इकट्ठा होते हैं। जैसे किसी उत्सव मनाने की तैयारी कर रहे हो। दुनिया मे बहुत कम देखा जाता है कि पूरे देश के नागरिक विद्यार्थियों की जीवन की सबसे महत्वपूर्ण परीक्षा में अपना योगदान देते है।

While you can use spices and herbs like tulsi to sprice up your morning cup of tea or sip on Kashmiri Kahwa, you can also get your much-loved fruit dose by making hot fruit punches

Winter is a season of indulgence. Period. Besides the numerous festivities, it is also a time when the body craves for hot and sizzling food and beverages, almost perpetually.

The best way to heat up the body from within is to sip on hot beverages spiked with warming spices or even alcohol.

Those of you who prefer desi flavours, there’s nothing more satisfying than a strong cup of masala chai or kesari doodh to keep warm.

Real Meaning of Happiness Navratri, Festival of Navratri is full of lights, joy and festivity




                        Navratri


                     Image result for cute girls navratri celebration


Festival of Navratri is full of lights, joy and festivity. Hindus celebrate this with devotion and enthusiasm throughout India. The celebration is carried on for ten days and the last four days are very important. Navratri means nine nights and so the tenth day Goddess Durga, who is worshipped throughout the nine days, is immersed in holy water after pooja. Each and everyday has its importance and meaning. People worship Goddess in three forms and try to enhance their physical, mental and spiritual practice in these nine days. 

Navaratri is a festival dedicated to the worship of the Hindu deity Durga. The word Navaratri means 'nine nights' in Sanskrit, nava meaning nine and ratri meaning nights. During these nine nights and ten days, nine forms of Devi are worshipped. The tenth day is commonly referred to as Vijayadashami or "Dussehra" (also spelled Dasera). Navaratri is an important major festival and is celebrated all over India and Nepal. Diwali the festival of lights is celebrated twenty days after Dasera. Though there are in total five types of Navaratri that come in a year, Sharad Navaratri is the most popular one. Hence, the term Navaratri is being used for Sharada Navaratri here.

Navratri festival is celebrated twice a year, though the one that is celebrated in September or October is well-known and celebrated with extreme passion and fervour. Some Hindus believe that every night one form of Goddess is worshipped while some believe that three forms of Goddess are worshipped and they are the trinity of God. The celebration varies from one state to another although the dedication and devotion remains the same all over India.


                   Image result for cute girls navratri celebration

Navratri Celebration and Fasting

Some people eat only fruits and drink milk during the entire nine days and nights. 

Some eat meal one time a day and that meal should be satvik, which means vegetarian meal which is prepared without the use of onion and garlic. 

Fasting is not compulsory and even after few years if the devotee feels that he or she is not capable of continuing fast during Navratri, he or she can discontinue also. 

It is good to keep mind, body and thoughts pure during the time of Navratri. 

If possible try to light a Jyot in front of Goddess Durga's statue or at least a picture throughout the nine days and nights. 

Start the prayers with praying for Lord Ganesha and then perform aarti in front of Goddess Durga. 

Men do not shave or cut their hair during this period. 

People do not wear black clothes during this period and avoid keeping leather goods with them. 

People worship young girls and feed them with sweets and different types of traditional and delicious food items. They consider them as form of Goddess Durga. 

Since it is believed that Goddess is fond of red flowers and red colour, women and young girls prefer wearing clothes in red and yellow colour.


                   Image result for navratri celebration in city


Fasting commences on the ninth night of Navratri.

People pray to Goddess Durga to destroy the evil during Navratri. They ask help and strength from the Goddess to fight against the evil and protect the Hindu dharma. In West Bengal, men and women celebrate Navratri festival as Durga Pooja and worship huge idols of Goddess Durga. In Gujarat people perform traditional dance which is known as Garba almost throughout the night. They wear colourful dresses and mostly Indian traditional dresses are preferred. 

Chaitra Navratri is celebrated after Holi and during Chaitra Shukla Paksha. This starts from the first day and ends on the ninth day which is also celebrated as Ram Navmi. The worship of Goddess on the eighth day is very important and auspicious and is significant in both Navratri festivals. 

Dussehra or Navratri is also celebrated as Lord Rama's victory over the Demon king Ravana. He was the ten headed king of Lanka and had kidnapped Rama's wife, Sita. The main objective is, however, to celebrate the victory of good over the evil. 

Nine forms of Shakti are worshipped during the Navaratris. The Devis worshipped depend on the tradition of the region.

In Western India, particularly in the state of Gujarat and Mumbai, Navaratri is celebrated with the famous Garba and Dandiya Raas dance. Since the past few years, the Government of Gujarat has been organising the "Navaratri Festival Celebrations" on a regular basis for the nine days of Navaratri Festival in Gujarat. People from all over Gujarat and even abroad come to participate in the nine-day celebration. It is also popular throughout India and among Indian communities around the world including the UK, Canada, Malaysia, Singapore and USA.

Pre-matrimonial investigations If you are driving down an Indian highway, you are sure to see billboards on the side of the road saying “Wedding Detective”.



                The Pre-Wedding Spy

                        Image result for wedding in india


Many of these detective companies have sprung up across the country and provide detailed information about the groom to be and his past relationships (if any). These detectives actually get themselves involved with close friends and family of the groom through any means possible and try and withdraw information from them. If all is cleared, the couple is free to enter in matrimony.

Agencies say they've seen a huge rise in pre-matrimonial investigations to check a suitor's background, because more people are meeting online and families are less involved.
In a land where arranged marriage dominates, parents search for only the best for their daughters and will stop at nothing to get that. If you are driving down an Indian highway, you are sure to see billboards on the side of the road saying “Wedding Detective”. If you wonder what that is, do not over think it because it is exactly what you think it is. 

"It's not spying, we just wanted to know about my sister's boyfriend before she married him," says Anita (not her real name). She hired a private investigator to verify her now brother-in-law's background. Her sister met and fell in love with him at work, but Anita and her parents wanted to "authenticate" his family's status and finances before the wedding went ahead.

She enlisted the services of one of India's many pre-matrimonial detective agencies, which spent a month drawing up a report into his earnings, family history and past relationships, among other things.

                   Image result for watching spy

"He told us he was from a good family, but we needed to ensure he was telling the truth.
"Earlier in India with arranged marriages which were set up by the family, relatives would know about a partner, but now you don't know if he's married or has children or whatever, so we needed to hire someone to check all this," says Anita, adding her still-happily-married sister never knew about the detectives.
Anita turned to the services of Veteran Investigations, a Mumbai-based agency which has been carrying out "pre-matrimonial" checks for more than 40 years.

Finances and relationships
The nature and scope of investigation depends on the moral or cultural values of parents. Someone from a more traditional Indian family might want to check up on whether a bride or groom drinks or smokes.

Others might be keener to learn whether there are any past relationships, something which can still be frowned upon in India. Conducting a review of a groom's financial dealings and business assets is also common.
Mr Rai usually assigns a team of two or three people to every case. Research is a mixture of discreet enquiries through the social circle, online searches and on-the-spot surveillance.
"The most important thing is to maintain a safe distance at all times. They can never know you're watching them," says Jay Prakash, one of Mr Rai's detectives

The Sun Of The First Day - Poem by Rabindranath Tagore


The Sun Of The First Day - Poem by Rabindranath Tagore


The sun of the first day
Put the question
To the new manifestation of life-
Who are you?
There was no answer.
Years passed by.

The last sun of the last day
Uttered the question
on the shore of the western sea
In the hush of evening-
Who are you?
No answer came again.

History

Matheran was identified by Hugh Poyntz Malet, the then district collector of Thane district in May 1850. Lord Elphinstone, the then Governor of Bombay laid the foundations of the development as a future hill station. The British developed Matheran as a popular resort to beat the summer heat in the region. Matheran is birthplace of famous freedom fighter Veer Bhai Kotwal. He was born on 1 December 1912 in a barber family. State Govt. has built a monument in his memory. The Matheran Hill Railway was built in 1907 by Sir Adamjee Peerbhoy and covers a distance of 20 km (12 mi), over large swathes of forest territory. The Matheran hill railway, also known as Matheran Light Railway (MLR), was inspected by UNESCO world heritage site officials but failed to make it to the list as a World Heritage Site.

While the festival is organized mostly in Shimla, at a close distance, in Arki in Solan, a special event is organised. On the lines of the bull fights of Athens, a special buffalo fight is organised. The difference between the events in Athens and that in India is that in India even the general public can be the audience after paying a small sun – a practice that is not employed in Athens where this event is only accessible to a select few. Arki in Solan where this event is organised, has abundant greenery and numerous kinds of flowering plants and the sheer beauty of the region is a real sight to behold.
The festival of Sair boasts of not just a fantastic location but also a foray into the lives of locals, especially the artists. Local craftsmen set up stalls to attract the tourists visiting the region and this works well for both the tourists who are on the lookout for traditional handicrafts and for the artists who are always in need of more opportunities. The festival enables a rich give and take, thus, of not just goods of all kinds, but also of ideas. The human spirit of generosity is visible during the various events at the Sair Festival.
