Mawlynnong   is the cleanest village in the world situated in eastern state of Meghalaya, India. The photo of the village was given on my site on 13th November.

Though traveling is a part of our life yet we miss so many things in our life. We all are really lucky as we visited such a paradise on earth. The eastern India is worth seeing. When we visited the place, I thought that God  lives  in the midst of forest. We believe that God lives in heaven. The heaven is no where else, it is in this place only.

I shall put  more photographs from my album to make you aware that you need not search heaven any where , it is here on Earth.

Once a twenty five years old lady  Nisha took part in a elocution competition. She was a good orator, speaker and spoke very well in the competition. Everyone present in the hall appreciated her speech. One by one all the competitors spoke and competition got over. One of the competitors Sonali, spoke out of context and she was not enough confident about her topic to face the judges.

As soon as the competition got over judges started their  work, counted the marks and were ready to  announce the result.

Then the judges went to the stage and announced the name of the winners. When Nisha found her name in second positionwith Sonali winnig, she refused to take her prize. She started arguing with the judges as Sonali, spoke out of the topic. The judges remained silent and did not utter a word.

The organiser of the competition started arguing with Nisha. She started weeping and said that she did not want any prize for that. Sonali took her prize and went away.

When Nisha came home weeping, her mother asked her about the incident. Her mother consoled her and said,”You have done your job well. If you deserve, you will win everything in your life. God gives the thing at the right time. So don’t repent. No one can take your belongings. Whatever is yours that comes automatically to you”.

Later on after six months, when there was a inter collegeite competition, Nisha got first prize and Sonali did not get anything, Nisha realised that her mother was right.

So success comes if you really deserve it.

प्रतियोगिता

कर्म करो आगे बढो
     यह जीवन का लक्ष
कभी ना करो फल की आशा
     वें लेते है सदा सही का पक्ष |

प्रतियोगिता तो एक साधन है
     जो देते है एक दिशा
प्रतिद्वंदिता करना हो तो
     स्वयं के साथ करना |

स्वयं को बनाओ इतने उंचे
     स्तर स्तर से आगे
देखोगे यह आकांक्षा तुम्हे
     कहाँ से कहाँ पहुंचतें |

(Pratiyogita) Competition is only with oneself…

Today is the Best Day

“According to Pandit Kalidas—- Yesterday is a dream, tomorrow is a vision, but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope, therefore look well to this day”

The work whatever is pending should be completed today. Today is the best day for doing the necessary work. Sometimes waiting leads a heavy loss to a business. Every moment of our life should be analysed and go accordingly. Thinking, feeling and analysing is the best way to get success in life. If any problem comes, sit coolly, feel the situation, analyse it and then  do the action. So do not wait for tomorrow.

We know the story of Ram  and Ravan i.e. good wins over evil. On Ravan’s death-bed Ram wished to learn Politics from Ravan. As we know Ravan was a learned man fighting for justice always, he said “Do not wait for tomorrow, decide it today”
