CURRENT AFFAIRS
4000KmLongGreat‘GreenWall’OfIndiaPlanned
ByTheGovernment
A 5km long and 1400km wide green belt to
be built from Gujarat to the border of Delhi-
Haryana. The plan is yet to be executed
and the officials are enthusiastic about
implementing it in order to overcome land
degradation.
In the conference COP14 of the United
Nations Convention to Combat Desertification
in India, this plan was discussed. This plan is
still awaiting financial clearance.
By 2030, India intends to restore 26 million
hectares of land that is degraded.
About a decade back, this plan was discussed,
however, it couldn’t be implemented as
several other countries would be involved in
it. At this point in time, it is India’s priority to
make this plan turn into reality.
In 2016, the ISRO had studied about which
places in India have the most degraded land
and the study concluded that Delhi, Rajasthan,
and Gujarat has 50 percent of degraded land.
Highlights Of The Plan
> The officials foresee that implementing this
plan will benefit us in two ways. It will repair
the degraded land through afforestation and
will safeguard cities from dust that comes in
through deserts.
> This green belt from Porbandar to Panipat
will help regions such as Rajasthan, Haryana,
Gujarat, and New Delhi. This green belt will
cover the Aravali regions.
> All the dust coming from the Thar Desert will
be controlled by the green belt.
> Afforestation will be encouraged after
checking desertification.
> For now, all the details have been collected,
the plan is yet to be executed.
> This would be one of India’s legacy program
when the plan is implemented to improve all the
degraded lands.

Valley Civilization.
As the art changes with
civilization, Indian fine arts have
developed with styles and forms
of art. Sculpting art in olden days
were with bronze or stones. The
sculpture is playing an important
role until today and always plays.
Fine arts are a part of the tradition and
culture of India. The arts like sculpting
and painting are older than written
forms. Our ancestors tried to portray
their religious beliefs and living ways
of their times through their art forms.
Sculpture in India is a historic art and
it was found from the days of Indus
Imagine the absence of art from ancient days to
date and imagine how would we know the moments
of history. The arts like painting, sculpting have
given us the knowledge of wars, moments and
development.
Sculpture Art
In India-It is More than an Art
INDIAN DIASPORA FINE ART

OCTOBER 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET

INDIAN DIASPORA FINE ART

The idea behind sculpting is to show
history. Sculpting always showed
the stages and history. Indians are
familiar with sculptures from the eras of
Buddhism and Jainism.
Bronze: The statues and idols of
gods and goddess in Indian temples
are made of bronze. From the period
of Harappan civilization, we found a
dancing girl sculpture which was made
with bronze. The dancing girl is from
Mohenjo-Daro and a few sculptures
are found in sites of Harappa &
Mohenjo-Daro which is Pakistan in the
present day. Later many of the bronze
sculptures were made and all are part
of Indian history.
Stone: The walls of sacred temples
are covered with the sculptures of gods
and goddess. Looking at the stone
sculpture in temples, we will draw the
real picture. The identification of the
stone sculpture is easy from ancient
days itself and this shows that stone
sculpture is an old art. The stone
sculptures can be of a different kind
of stone. It can be sandstone and
limestone.
Wood Carving: Wood carving
is a famous and continuous form of
sculpting in India. You will find wood
carving till today in small works. Wood
carving is part of integral housing and
the furniture these days. Carving on
wood can be intricate and it is a feature
of furniture.
The portray of the ancient times were
less of wood but wood carving is
more into the modern world. Carving
is a brilliant art which is universal
handicraft. There are also many
techniques and one must be skilled
to do wood carving.
Clay: Clay sculptures are one of
the most found in today’s days. The
smooth and soft texture of clay can
be turned into beautiful sculptures. It
includes some of the techniques to
create clay sculptures as well. The
molding of clay into sculptures is one
of the crucial parts of sculpting in
modern India and this can be called
as contemporary art.
Some of the Famous
Sculptures in India:
Sculptures are keeping educating
us about ancient times. There are
some famous sculptures that are well
known and to be known. The Ashoka
pillars are the top famous sculptures
of India, then come Ajanta and Ellora
caves. The sculpture that got famous
from Indus valley civilization is
Dancing girl from Mohenjo-Daro.
Sizes of sculptures: Sculptures
can be of different sizes and there
is no limit of size for this art. The
giant sculptures and the miniature
sculptures, both can are real and
artistic. Sculpting is irrespective
of size from ancient days and it is
evident till date.

Jainism got its name from the word ‘Jina’ which
means attaining victory through leading a spiritual life
filled with ethics and overcoming the phase of karma
that leads to rebirth. The believers of Jainism are
known as Jains.
INDIAN DIASPORA CULTURE & TRADITION
Know Everything About
The Jain Dharma!

Jainism Art
The Jains are focused on
sacred scriptures when you look
into their Art. Their texts and
commentaries were not written,
they were just orally present.
It is said that the old texts and
manuscripts were made on palm
leaves and there were folios that
had a wooden case covering
and their themes were historical
and religious. There were no
book covers earlier, they were
made later on.
When the 14th century came
to an end, manuscripts were
written on paper and they were
decorated with gold and silver.
There were about 24 gurus in
the Jain History who spread
their spiritual knowledge on
Jainism. The Jains believe
that their religions is eternal
dharma. Agamas are their
religious texts.
This religion is centered
around non-violence,
detachment, speaking the
truth, avoiding cheating and
keeping away from sexual
desires.
The prayer of Jains is the
Namokara Mantra. Jains
consume only vegetarian
food. This religion focuses on
Parasparopagraho Jivanam
which means to help people.
There are millions of Jains
spread all over the world.
In Gujarat, Ahemdabad and
Patan were the two famous
places where the manuscripts
were produced. Additionally,
there were other centers
such as Gwalior, Delhi, and
Jaisalmer.
Back then, for Svetambara
Jains, one of their important
activity was to donate to Jain
temples and commission
illustrated books.
Kalpa Sutra & Uttaradhyayana
Sutra In Jain Art
The importance of the Kalpa
Sutra painting contained the
Jain Tirthankaras notably
Parshvanatha and Mahavira
and it depicted the Moksha of
Mahavira. This is a detail of a
leaf about the birth of God

18

Jainism and Its
Cosmic View
As per the Jainism community,
the cosmos is divided into three
worlds, celestial or upper world,
the mortal or middle world, and
the lower world.
All of these realms are
expressed independently or
they are put together in the
paintings.
Apart from this, in the
paintings, they show how 20
Jains attained salvation from
the cycle of re-birth. There are
pictorial representations of
how Jains work towards doing
selfless service.
Jainism Architecture
The Jain monuments were
based on Brahmin Hindu
temples and Jain monks.
There is similarity in the Jain,
Buddhist and Hindu Art. Two
of the famous architecture of
Jainism are Dilwara temples
and Udyagiri and Khandagiri
caves.
The khandagiri caves are
located in Orissa and it has
a depiction of elephants,
women and Tirthankaras. This
architecture is beautiful and
unique in its own way.
The Dilwara temple was built
during the Chalukya rule in the
11th and 13th centuries CE.
The entire Dilwara temple
is made of marble and this
is all a dedication to the
Tirthankaras. The pillars of
this wall are made in such a
way that it portrays women
playing instrumental music.
Jainism Food And
Fasting
Jains are pure vegetarians.
They avoid eating eggs and
coming to the consumption of
dairy products, they ensure
not to harm animals during the
process.
They avoid eating root
vegetables such as potato,
beetroot and carrots. They
do this to ensure not to cause
harm to tiny organisms that
reside in soil.
Jainism Meditation
As per Jainism the meaning
of meditation is to make an
effort to get rid of karmic
attachments, it is not similar
to that of Buddhist meditation.
Going into a meditative
state of mind is known as
Samayika. This ritual is
practiced three times a day.
One of the scholar believes
that when you meditate as a
Jain, you should always focus
on the fact that nothing is
yours.
Jainism Festivals
Jains celebrate 5
festivals
>Paryushana
> Daslakshana
>Mahavir Janma
>Kalyanak
>Dipawali

20
Jainism Spiritual Beliefs
Here is a list of the basic and
essential beliefs of Jainism
1. As per the Jain religion there is no God,
it is the eternal universe that has been in
existence and will never end.
2. What controls the world is the law of
nature, it is not with the consent of God
that makes events happen in this world, it
is all karmic.
Jainism entirely believes that everything
that happens to you is either because you
have performed a good or a bad deed, it
is not God who decided what you should
get, it is karma that decides what you
should get.
3. The consequence of a karma has to be
faced by that particular individual only. Be
it good or bad.
4. Jainism says each pure soul is God.
The one who can get rid of karma, cycle
of birth and death can get liberated. Even
God had to get liberated from all of these
cycles. Thus, we can do it as well.
5. Jainism talks about learning worshiping
God for his values and not as an
individual. It is more about learning the
same good values and implementing it in
life.
The main idea of attaining moksha is to
not come back into this world every again.
This concept is called Avatarvaad.

6. Jainism strongly believes that the only way to be free
is to free your soul from every desire, while this is the
only way to attain liberation. One can attain liberation only
after facing his/her good and bad karma.
7. As per the Jainism culture, each human being is
divided into categories relying upon the senses each one
has. Be it any number.
8. Jainism considers that there is life in water, air, soil,
and plants. Thus, they have one sense.
9. Jainism is completely against violence, it makes us
think deeply about how we should not harm any living
being, by taking an example of ourselves on how we
would feel if we are harmed.
10. Even a bad thought is an equally bad karma as per
Jainism. Thus, one should not even think bad about
someone, it is as good as physically harming the opposite
person.
11. As Jainism believes that all
kind of life is divided into different
senses, the life that has one sense
needs to be used as it is essential
for survival. However, harming
life that has two, three, four or five
senses is a sin. It believes that
one should have control over not
harming the one sense that has a
life as well.
12. Jainism says that we are not
certain of certain species and
places. However, they exist and
we cannot see them or sense their
presence.
13. One should focus on limiting
their possessions and desires in life
and be happy with what they have.
The source through which Moksha
can be achieved is only after
Manushya Gati. One gets a real
chance to get liberated only after
getting a human birth.
14. Jainism believes that one’s
birth is decided right after a person
dies, thus, it is an immediate
process.
15. Narak Gati, tiryanch gati,
manushya gati and dev gati, a soul
roams around these phases based
on one’s good or bad karmas.
The soul gets liberated only after
completing all the karmas.

With Eco-Friendly Idols
Ganpati Bappa Moriya
COVER STORY
Hope you were sensitive to nature and carved
Lord Ganesha’s idols with materials that
go back to nature so that mother earth is
not troubled. Positive signs of shielding the
environment are to save it from air pollution or
water pollution that hampers living creatures on
land and in water.
The Good In Carving Eco-Friendly
Ganesha Idols
In most cases, Ganesha Idols are made with
plaster of Paris, heavy metals and harmful
paints that is bad to inhale and worse when it is
submerged in water.
Thus, majority of the crowd is carving
Ganesha idols made of clay and mud. There
is a reason behind carving clay idols and it
is that it denotes being spiritual and simple.
Take a look at the good in carving ecofriendly
Ganesha Idols
No 1 - Sustains Purity In Water Bodies
Ecofriendly Ganesha Idols help with keeping
the water bodies pure because the ingredients
used in the making are not harmful to the
ecology or our health.
22
COVER STORY
Every year Lord Ganesha comes to celebrate his birthday with
all of us showering peace, happiness, and prosperity in our life.
Did you welcome Lord Ganesh with open arms offering him tasty
mothichur ladu’s? Hope you made the most of Ganesh Chaturti
with eco-friendly idols.

COVER STORY
That said when people use
plaster of Paris to make
Ganesha Idols it ends up
polluting water bodies during
Ganesha immersion and the
reason is plaster of Paris is not
degradable. It stays clogged and
harms the water animals as well
as makes it unhygienic for us as
mosquitoes enjoy breeding on
contaminated water.
No 2 - Saves Us From Eating
Contaminated Food
When the natural ecosystem is
affected its repercussion is seen
on our food as well through sea
animals that live in water.
For instance, if you are a non-
vegetarian and you eat fish that
has taken in harmful metals
that indirectly goes into your
stomach through the fish. When
there aren’t any chemicals
in water bodies your food is
contamination-free as well.
No 3 - You Get To Explore A
New Skill
When you make a Ganesha Idol
all by yourself it would give you
immense happiness because
you would have tried a new skill
of carving Ganesha with your
own capability. It is one kind of
achievement of creating an idol
all by yourself.
No 4 - You Learn How The
Art Of Unity
Whether you are making a
Ganesha idol with your friends or
family, you learn the art of unity
and teamwork. This experience
teaches you how to value the
opposite person’s opinion and
you learn how to accept ideas
better than yours. It is exciting
to prepare a Ganesha Idol in a
group.
Interesting Eco-Friendly

Interestingly you can make
Ganesha idols with things that
you consume and have at home.
Here are some of the eco-
friendly idols

Ganesha immersion is truly
done the natural way. You can
end up growing a plant if you
make the idol with clay and
mud. See how!
No 1 - You make an idol with
clay
No 2 - On the third or fourth
day, based on when you want
to immerse Ganesha, you take
a pot and pour water on the
Ganesha. The clay starts to fall
apart.
No 3 - Once the clay is
completely dismantled and in
your bucket, you can sow seeds
on the same clay and water it
regularly.
At the end after a month you
will have a beautiful plant in
your garden. Ganapati Bappa
will be happy seeing you doing
good to the environment and his
creation.
Have a happy and eco-friendly

Doraemon prints and smoothly writing.
Sandra asked from where her friend got the
pen and how much it costs.
She also wanted the colourful Doraemon
pen in her school kit. Soon after school,
Sand ran to her parents and asked for the
pen.

Sandra and her
father
Her father asked- What’s so
special about the pen?
Sandra- It is a Doraemon pen
and writes smoothly.
Her father- We will get the
pen in the evening from

the shop and she bought the
pen.
Sandra- Doraemon is my

Her dad smiled wide looking at
his daughter’s happiness.
Then the little girl went to her
mother to show the pen. She
completed her homework with
her favourite pen.
The next day, she happily
went to the school and
showed the pen to Rosey and
her other friends.
In the evening, while leaving
the school, she found that
the pen was not working after
some time. She opened the
pen and tried to check it. But
the pen spilled the ink out and
it made a mess. Sandra din’t

anyone. She is good to Rosey
also.

28

her friends supported her,
she felt bad for stealing the
Rosey’s pen. She felt more
guilty about it.
Then she shared with her
parents about what happened
in the school. She was ready
to take the punishment from
her father for her bad.
Then her father said- “Sandra,
always remember that you
must not break anyone’s trust.
You must not cheat anyone
even for small things. Your
friends have trust in you and
you must return the pen to
Rosey as well.”
He also said- “I will buy
another pen for you and you
just put back your friend’s pen
in her place tomorrow. She
will be happy to find her pen
again.”
The next day Sandra, put the
pen back in Rosey’s place.
Rosey smiled happily when
she found her favourite pen
back, on the table.
Sandra understood the
importance of keeping the
trust of someone. Trust is
precious and lying to some is
bad.

to spread the message of
Gandhi, will make a donation
of a sum of 100,000 pounds
as an endowment towards a
number of Mahatma Gandhi
scholarships to be set up
at the London School of
Economics (LSE).
The scholarships under
the Trust would go towards
supporting the Indian students
financially in their educational
journey at the esteemed
London-based educational
institution, with which Desai
has a long association as an
economist.
Trustee Lady Kishwar Desai
said in a statement that it is
the seed money which would
be then added to by others so
that a large corpus would be
built up in time.
She also said this move
would enable well deserved
Indian students to study at the
LSE and has been welcomed
by the Director of the LSE,
Minouche Shafik.
Shafik said the scholarships
are reflective of the London
School of Economic’s very
strong connection with India.
Dr. B R Ambedkar, one of
the architects of the Indian
Constitution, is among its
many Indian alumni.
In the year 1931, Mahatma
Gandhi gave a well-attended

NRI IMMIGRATION
Donald Trump administration’s proposal to terminate the rights
of H-4 visa holders, i.e. the spouses of H-1B visa holders, may
not be put into effect until next year giving a little relief to
Indians working in the United States.
But then, the United States Department
of Justice (DoJ) told court that it
has set a time frame of Spring 2020
(between March and June next year)
to bring in rules to revoke the H-4
Employment Authorization Document
(EAD), awarded to the spouses of
H-1B visa holders, 90 percent of which
are high-skilled female professionals
employed in the United States.
The Department of Justice told
the District of Columbia Circuit, in
Washington, D.C. that previously
indicated, DHS’ (Department of
Homeland Security’s) intention to
proceed with the publication of the H-4
EAD proposed rule remains unchanged
and the proposed rule is currently
undergoing the inter-agency process.
The number of H-1B visas issued to
immigrants every year has abruptly
dropped down due to tight watch on the
immigration rules across the board.
Trump Administration’s Move to
End Work Permits for H-1B Spouses to
Go Through in Spring 2020

Former President Barack
Obama during his tenure
issued the eligibility for
employment authorization to
H-4 dependent spouses of
H-1B visa holders in 2015 and
first proposed in 2011. Under
this rule, the spouses of H-1B
workers were permitted to
employment, where their
high demand skills would be
required so that they could
lead a life in the country and
promote the innovation and
growth of U.S. companies at
the same time.
President Donald Trump, who
signed Buy American and Hire
American Executive Order in
2017, removed the rights of
H4 visa holders and declared
them as a category of
immigrants taking advantages
of employment opportunities
that could otherwise be
beneficial for Americans.
The managing attorney at law
firm Immigration.com Rajiv S
Khanna
https://economictimes.
indiatimes.com/nri/visa-and-
immigration/reprieve-for-
spouses-of-h-1b-visa-holders/
articleshow/71176908.cms
said the delay is not the core
issue.
He said when you are
bringing in a new regulation
or deregulation, there has to
be some reasonable basis
in fact and circumstance.
He questioned how do you
justify taking away an entire
cadre of highly qualified,
highly motivated people
from the workforce when
unemployment levels are
below 4%?
According to a study by
the South Asian American
Policy & Research Institute,
the ability of United States
companies to pull in and retain
skilled workers would be
impacted if the country starts
revoking the H-4 EAD visa.
The move will have a major
impact on Indian women, as
they comprise up to 90 percent
of the 1.2 lakh H4 visas
issued since 2015. The Trump
government believes the move
would give American workers
a better chance at obtaining
jobs that the population of H-4
workers currently hold.
The Chief Executive Officer
of EB5 BRICS, Vivek Tandon,
warned that postponing the
proposed ban to next year
only offers minor relief .
He said spouses of H-1B
holders still don’t have any
clarity on EAD status. Already
employers in the United
States are likely to avoid hiring
H-4 visa holders until a final
decision is taken.
Khanna said the rhetoric
against immigrants would not
end until there is a change
in the perception that foreign
workers are taking away local
jobs.
The move will have a
massive impact on some
of the tech companies like
Google, Facebook, and
Apple, which rely heavily on
H1B immigrants. According
to these tech firms, the
move would affect them in a
negative way given the high-
tech skills required and it is
extremely challenging for them
to find people with like-skilled
U.S. individuals, reflecting the
same high-tech skills.

Greta Thunberg
Gives Power Speech at the
United Nations Climate Action Summit
Here is her complete speech:
My message is that we’ll be watching you.
This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should
be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet,
you all come to us young people for hope. How dare
you!
You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with
your empty words and yet I’m one of the lucky
ones. People are suffering. People are dying.
Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in
the beginning of a mass extinction and all
you can talk about is money and fairytales of
eternal economic growth. How dare you!
For more than 30 years, the science has been
crystal clear. How dare you continue to look
away and come here saying that you’re
doing enough when the politics and solutions
needed are still nowhere in sight.
You say you hear us and that you understand
the urgency, but no matter how sad and
angry I am, I do not want to believe that.
Because if you really understood the
situation and still kept on failing to act then
you would be evil and that I refuse to believe.
The popular idea of cutting our emissions
in half in 10 years only gives us a 50 percent
chance of staying below 1.5 degrees and the
risk of setting off irreversible chain reactions
beyond human control.
Fifty percent may be acceptable to you, but
those numbers do not include tipping points,

most feedback loops, additional
warming hidden by toxic air
pollution or the aspects of equity
and climate justice.
They also rely on my generation
sucking hundreds of billions of
tons of your CO2 out of the air
with technologies that barely
exist.
So a 50 percent risk is simply
not acceptable to us, we who have
to live with the consequences.
How dare you pretend that this
can be solved with just business
as usual and some technical
solutions? With today’s
emissions levels, that remaining
CO2 budget will be entirely gone
within less than eight and a half
years.
There will not be any solutions
or plans presented in line
with these figures here today,
because these numbers are too
uncomfortable and you are still
not mature enough to tell it like
it is.
You are failing us, but the
young people are starting to
understand your betrayal. The
eyes of all future generations are
upon you and if you choose to fail
us, I say: We will never forgive
you.
We will not let you get away
with this. Right here, right now
is where we draw the line. The
world is waking up and change
is coming, whether you like it or
not.
Thank you.
Who Is Greta Thunberg?
In August 2018, the teenager
Greta Thunberg first staged
a ‘School Strike for Climate’
outside Riksdag, the national
legislature and the supreme
decision-making body of
Sweden. At that time, then in
the ninth grade, Thunberg made
up her mind not to attend school
until the 2018 Sweden general
election on September 9 after
heatwaves and wildfires in the
country.
In March, almost 1.5 million
people, mostly youngsters,
from Germany, Japan, the
UK, Australia and many more
to join her #FridaysforFuture
demonstrations.
Greta has been missing school
every Friday to go along
protesting outside the Swedish
parliament.
Thunberg’s mother Malena
Ernman, a celebrated classical
music singer, has chosen to
travel by train and bicycle
in spite of flying to her
performances. Moreover,
the teenager has
persuaded her parents to
eat mostly vegan.
Thunberg and her sister
Beata were diagnosed with
autism and ADHD. Autism
a serious developmental
disorder that impairs the
ability to communicate
and interact. However,
overcoming her disability,
Thunberg became the
leader of a worldwide
movement. In many
interviews, Thunberg
said that she became an
activist not in spite of her
autism but because of it.
Recently Thunberg
together 15 other
youngsters filed a
lawsuit with the United

the Convention on the
Rights of the Child alleging
Germany, Argentina,
Brazil, France, and
Turkey was cognizant of
the negative impact on
the environment of their
carbon emissions and did

The Indian government has imposed a ban on the manufacture
and sale of e-cigarettes in the country after a series of deaths
were found to related to vaping. The executive order prohibits
selling, producing, importing, or giving publicity to e-cigarettes

India Bans
E-Cigarette Sales

Finance Minister of India
Nirmala Sitharaman declaring
the ban said they were also
listed as non-cognizable
offenses. As per the draft
ordinance, violations would
cost up to Rs 1 lakh, serving
one-year jail term or both.
And, in case the offense is
found to be repeated, the
violations would cost up to
three years imprisonment
and a fine of Rs 5 lakh.
However,
tradition
cigarettes
are legal in
India with
high taxes. A
spokesperson
from India’s
health
ministry said
these novel
products like
e-cigarettes
come in
market with
attractive
appearances
and multiple
flavors
and their use has accrued
exponentially and acquired
epidemic proportions
in developed countries,
particularly among youth and
children.
Nirmala Sitharaman said in
the early stages e-cigarettes
got hyped up as a method
for people to get out of
the process of smoking
cigarettes. It was meant to
be a weaning process to
get out of smoking cigarettes.
According to reports, a number
of people are no more using it
as a weaning method but some
getting into the practice of
using e-cigarettes seeing that
as cool.
The minister made a point that
e-cigarettes are being sold as
fuss-free devices, which can
be charged like mobile phones
and used with ease. She said
that if someone doesn’t have,
they can simply charge it as we
do with a mobile phone. The
cartridge that they use can be
used and thrown away. It’s like
a pen. Suppose if they don’t
have cartridges, they can use it
like disposable ball pens.
Notably, there are more than
400 brands and 150 flavors
available in the Indian market,
but not even a single brand
is produced in the country.
What drawing the attention of
youth to use it is its odorless
quality.
In a bid to avoid putting
youngsters health in risk,
the Indian government
decided to place a ban on
e-cigarettes. According
to studies, the smoke
which is exhaled from
e-cigarettes includes nicotine
in high levels
affecting people
who smoke
exceedingly. The
United States and
several European
countries have
already raised
concerns
regarding the
same keeping in
view the deaths
related to vaping.
As of September
2017, about seven
people died in
the United States
owing to a vaping-
related illness.
The Asian country has
already banned e-cigarettes
and Japan permits some
vaping products but bans the
sale of nicotine e-cigarette
juice. In humans, nicotine
leads to irritation and burning
sensation in the mouth and
throat, increased salivation,
nausea, abdominal pain,
vomiting and looseness of
the bowels.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah blaming former prime

Kashmir (PoK) said it would not have come into being
if Nehru has not declared an untimely ceasefire with the

Amit Shah Blames
Jawaharlal Nehru
for Existence of PoK

Aiming at Nehru over non-
integration of Kashmir with
India, Shah said the country’s
first home minister, Sardar
Vallabhbhai Patel, should have
looked after the issue, in lieu of
the then prime minister.
While giving a talk to a rally
in Mumbai on the Center’s
decision to revoke Article 370
in Jammu and Kashmir and
to campaign for the Bharatiya
Janata Party for the next
month’s Maharashtra Assembly
elections, Shah said the
Congress sees politics behind
abrogation of Article 370 but we
don’t see it that way.
The PoK wouldn’t have come
into existence had Nehru not
declared an untimely ceasefire
with Pakistan...Sardar Patel
should have handled Kashmir,
instead of Nehru handling it, he
said.
Not even a single bullet has
been fired in Kashmir following
the revocation of special status
to Jammu and Kashmir, he
added. The senior BJP leader
said there was no turmoil in
valley state and the future days,
terrorism will be at the end.
Shah said three dynasties
(without taking any names)
which presided over Kashmir
didn’t let the anti-corruption
agency to be established
there. Those who indulged in
corruption in Kashmir now are
feeling the heat despite the
cold there, he said in remarks

whether they be on the side
of or be against removal of
Article 370.

INDIAN YOGA
YogaAnd ItsSpiritual
Significance

Spirituality Is Realization & Yoga Brings It In Our Life!
Spirituality is an important aspect of our life. Precisely, living a
spiritual life is not about departing from the material world, but,
connecting to a true world where you get to meet your soul and
know yourself better. That being said, yoga is a channel to help you
get to a spiritual world.

INDIAN YOGA
62
Take a look at how yoga can
make one spiritual
Yoga is universally practiced
and interestingly through
breathing exercises and
stretches, one can add spiritual
meaning to their life. How?
You Discover The Positive
Side In You
There is no doubt that yoga is
an intense workout that comes
with its never-ending benefits
on your body.
Besides, every stretch and
asana is filled with positivity that
you start to think, feel and live
a positive life. This positivity is
essential for spiritual realization
and in a way you are welcoming
good things in your life.
Awareness Shines Within
You
Most of us feel that living
life and experiencing things
is awareness, However,
awareness and experiences are
two different things.
You become aware when you
truly understand how change
is constant, everything is
temporary and what is immortal
is your soul and there is an
eternal power to give light to
our soul.
Thus, through asanas,
breathing exercises and the
meditation techniques in yoga,
one learns everything about
what is true awareness.
Yoga Is Not Religious In
Nature
Following a religion is having
faith in a divine form and
practicing traditions and being
firm with rituals. If you are
in an impression that yoga
is religious, then you have
mistaken it, yoga doesn’t
believe in a form of God or
rituals. It is purely an art of
helping you connect with
yourself.
Yoga is completely spiritual in
nature, which means, you attain
a clear mind, healthy body and
a purified soul through yoga. It
is serene and beautiful.
Shuts The Noise In Your
Mind
All of us choose to surround
noise in our minds without
even realizing if it is worth it
at the end of the day. That
being said, it is not that we
do it deliberately, however,
we make ourselves helpless
to the situations we are in.
When you practice yoga,
if not becoming a totally
realized soul, the mind
certainly calms down and
you learn how to let go of
thoughts, you get a hold
of what you should take to
heart and not.
You Master The Art Of
Acceptance
While a lot of us out there
always feel that we need to
change ourselves and keep
a control in life. The spiritual
magic of yoga is that you
INDIAN YOGA

don’t need to push yourself
and make much of an effort.
You get to understand that
everything has to be taken
the way it comes.
Basically, the spiritual
aspect of yoga teaches you
to accept every storm as
a part of the journey and
during happy times you
know how to be joyous to the
fullest. You learn to keep a
balance through the different
situations life throws at you.
All in all, yoga has spiritual
significance because it can
keep the mind, body, and soul
connected. In the real sense,
it keeps the three connected
because your body is toned
and healthy and breathing
exercises helps the mind
stay calm. If the mind and
body are healthy, the soul
automatically gets connected.

Creativity is not stopping at a destination, it’s about unleashing
the possibilities of traversing through a path of your own.
That said, you don’t compete when you create or innovate.
It is all about getting yourself out of shackles and thinking
beyond limitation and rules.
It is as good as creating art from scribbles or making a ladder
with plastic forks and spoons.

confidence and feel good about yourself.
Say, for instance, you are passionate about
dancing and if you want to alter your thought
process and be more creative, you should
try innovating a new step. This way you start
practicing passion with things you love.

68
LIFE STYLE
Tip 5 - Be Friends With Nature
While it might sound philosophical to connect
with nature so that you can develop an
innovative mind, it is true that it helps you
feel rejuvenated and works as a mental
detoxifying agent.
Either watch the sunrise, face the sunset
or give a glance at the moon for a while.
Just see how it works as a magic mantra in
helping you be creative.
Ready to spend time with nature?
Tip 6 - Carry Along Your
Observation Skills
If you want to be a god innovator you need to
be a keen observer. You need not break your
head with noting everything in your memory
box. However, just be a spectator to the little
things around you.
At the moment you must be looking at being
innovative so that you can do well at work.
Thus, observe details such as what, why,
how and analyze what best to do with all you
know.
This should help with putting your observation
skills to use so that it gets easier to innovate.
Tip 7 - Be Open To Suggestions
And Feedback
When you get into the groove of being
innovative, you need to be open to
suggestions and feedback. It doesn’t imply
to criticize your innovation but helps you be a
better innovator and thinker.
Tip 8 - Collect All Your Ideas
When an idea comes to your mind, collect
it by putting it on paper or saving it on your
notepad. By doing this you are not letting
your idea flee away and later on it becomes
easy for you to assess what best you can do
to make the innovative thought work out.
Tip 9 - Tune Your Moods
While none of us can have a stable mood, it
is tough to keep up with a good mood always.
It can be challenging to fight against negative
emotions and other insecurities at times.
Thus, always try and tune your mood when
you feel lost and demotivated to keep up with
creative thoughts. Listen to music, go for a
walk, take a nap or watch a hilarious video.
Get back when you are all tuned to think
creatively.
Tip 10 - Believe In Yourself
If you want to achieve being innovative you
need to believe and be sure about your
thought. Having said, you will always get
stuck with being innovative. However, you
need to break through the limited thought
process and know for a fact that you will keep
trying no matter what.
In conclusion, to be creative, you need to
have faith in yourself and stop focusing on
reaching a destination to stop, but, find your
ways to do your best in creating what you
believe in.

10ReasonsToSay
MoneyIsImportantInARelationship
RELATIONSHIP

There are many beautiful sayings and
stories that prove love is everything. In fact,
the stories make the pain in love seem
beautiful. Being in love is a pleasure and
precious but with some conditions. The very
much mattering condition is
money. Agree?

72
RELATIONSHIP
Everything in a relationship
is somehow connected with
money. Money cannot bring
you whole happiness in your
life. But the circumstances
in life, make it tough without
money. Life may throw you
challenges to tackle it.
If you think love can alone
drive your life, then you must
once come on to the track
to know the reality. These
reasons to say that money is
important in a relationship to
let you be more practical in
life.
Why Money Is Important In
A Relationship
1. Equal contribution- As
important as sharing and
caring
The equal contribution will
save you from the financial
burden. When the contribution
is equal, it also lets the
relationship go smoothly. The
equal contribution is part of your
sharing and caring. You would
not leave a person to take the
burden when you care for them.
The little quantity can which you
want to share will make your
partner happy. It is the same
when you contribute financially.
So, basically, even to share
and care, you need enough
money in the relationship. Are
you still up the flag that loves
alone makes you win in your
relationship?
2. Communication-
Crucial but not for free
ICommunication is a basic
need in a relationship. Even
this basic need is possible
only if you have money. Your
communication with your
partner costs. Your every
month expenses can tell
you much you spend on
communication. The phone
bills, outings, and dining
costs a lot. All this is only
possible if you enough
money to manage.
3. Back up plan- To feel
secured
As life is full of uncertainties
where life can go upside
down. When money is
your backup, you will be
strong enough to clear the
problems. It is not definitely
not just having the bank
balance to feel rich or great.
But you feel secured to take
the life challenges.
When the unexpected
problems are arriving in life,
your savings will talk to it.
Your life experiences are
enough to tell how money

can be the best back up plan.
4. To support someone- Your money
is not just for you
Love does something unexpected and
tests you to deal with it. We would never
want to see our loved ones suffering or
going through the pain. If you are capable
of solving the problem, then it would
make it all smooth.
When you cannot support your partner
unexpectedly, this makes you feel
worthless in the relationship. This is
all part of painful love and sometimes,
moneyless situations come into the
picture to test your relationship. So,
don’t let your financial status affect your
relationship.
5. Hopefull life- Earnings motivate
you
When you need motivation in life, money
can do it to a greater extent. When you
are financially weak, you will have no
hopes in life.
Today’s earnings can give you a peaceful
and happy future. Earnings can let you go
on in life even when your life goes a little
down. Just to avoid the tough situations
in your relationship, you must have
sufficient money.
6. No disturbances- Money can pause it
When you don’t have money to lead your
life as expected, you are going to face
disturbances. The disturbances also
affect your relationship. The stress and
unhappiness will divert your focus on the
relationship.
When someone compromises their love

74
RELATIONSHIP
for a career, it is not selfish. We must call it
being practical. Career makes you stand up
successful, gets fame and sufficient money to
lead your future.
This shows that money is important in life and
relationship as well. It doesn’t mean money is
everything but money has more power than
we can imagine.
7. Respect in society- Better Standard of
living
You gain and earn respect in different ways.
But everything rotates around money. Your
struggle and hard work will be shown through
status and earnings.
You need not earn money to please the
society but just for the basic respect, you
need money. No money brings a situation
where we need to depend on someone all the
time. If you are in a long term relationship,
then you need to think about your respect in
society being a couple and then a family.
8. You get the best- You don’t need to
compromise
For anything that you want to buy, you must
be able to afford it. When you realize that
you cannot afford what you want, then the
only option you would have is compromising.
You cannot even take risks of falling into a
financial crisis fulfilling your desires. All this
keeps you far away from the best even when
you deserve it. So, the best thing is to earn,
save and go with the best you deserve in life
being together in a relationship.
This reason makes you feel that relationships
are fully connected with money.
9. You can buy health- Not to have risks
health-wise
Yes! You can buy health with money! When you
have to eat something healthy and hygienic,
you will need a little more money than other
options. And these low-quality options can spoil
your health. Wait, you need to know still more
how money can buy health.
When you lose all health money may let you
get back the health sometimes. When you
think to be healthy is important then you must
also feel important in having money. Again
not wealthy to be healthy here. It is living with
money for your needs and let your relationship
go breakless.
10. To accept and expect love
Wondering how money is related to accept
and expect love? This is simple to explain- you
cannot even be ready to accept when you

are not able to give your best to someone.
Moreover, expecting love is unfair when you
are aware of getting life risks.
You may not relate to this point when you
are in the initial stages of your relationship.
But a practical mind catches the facts
and consequences it in any stage of a
relationship.
When you just put all your efforts to make
your relationship stand strong, then focus
on your career, earnings at the same. If you
prefer winning life first and love following
it, then it is going to fruitful. These two
options are always there for the people in
a relationship that made them feel money
is important in life. The best relationship
advices can be from your own experiences.
All you need is to be practical and know the
reality.
I hope these reasons are enough to lead
you towards the right path in your precious
relationship and life.

8 Misconceptions And
11Facts About
Love And Romance
LOVE & ROMANCE

Are you sure you know it right? How
romantic are you?
While every couple has a different definition to love and
romance, we miss out on looking at the practical aspects
surrounding the relationship. Do you agree? Perhaps a person
in love can analyze this better.

78
LOVE & ROMANCE
Altogether, there are a few misconceptions
about love and romance that most of the
lovey-dovey love birds never bother to pay
heed to.
Contrarily, there are lovable facts about
love and romance that you must be going
through or passed by that phase a while
back.
Let’s clear off a few misconceptions and
feel great about the facts about love and
romance. You will get to analyze if you
are too cheesy or you need to get more
romantic.
Myths About Love And Romance
Take a look at the myths about love and
romance that we have over-conceptualized
within our mind.
No 1 - The Next Step Is Marriage
- Seriously?
Deep dive on the meaning of love an
romance. What is it? It is an emotion.
Right? We have all fantasized with the idea
that the next step after love and romance in
marriage.
The fact is that marriage is an institution of
commitment. Love and romance is just a
part of it but not its final destination.
No 2 - I Accept You For Who You
Are - Is it?
Now think of this, being in love and being
romantically involved with someone has a
huge difference.

How? In love, you will end up
accepting our partner for the
way he or she is.
On the other hand, when you
are romantically involved you
will not like to see the ugly side
of a person and goes the same
with how the opposite person
feels for you.
Thus, it is a myth that in love
and romance you are open to
acceptance.
No 3 - Distance Will
Still Keep Us Together
Look at it from the point of
view of romance and love
separately, it is not always true
that distance will hold a couple
always. Although it all depends
on how partners think.
Be it love or romance, it
is not easy to sail through
distance. It might be good to
take a break from romance
so that it doesn’t get boring.
However, when it comes to
love the more the distance,
the higher the chances for
love to fade. This is a myth
sometimes as it doesn’t
work successfully always.
No 4 - Love And
Romance Is All About
Gifting
How would emotions have
a connection with gifts?
Technically it doesn’t and if
you look at it from the feelings
point of view also it makes no
sense.
Why would you need gifts
to express a hug or a kiss?
Romance has no material
aspect tied to it.
No 5 - Make Efforts To
Be Romantic
Do you really think you need
to invest time and effort to
express romance? Don’t you
think that comes naturally
without you having to break
your head and investing time
into it?
That said, yes you make
efforts of giving time to each
other but romance doesn’t
need your effort, just needs
you to be real.
No 6 - Love Happens
Only Once
What if your or woman
cheats you, would you sulk
in that pain for life and never
move one? It is absolutely
a misconception that love
happens just once.
There is no guarantee,
warranty or expiration date
to staying or falling in love. It
happens when it happens.
No 7 - The Right Person
Is Yet To Come
How right have you been that

80
LOVE & ROMANCE
you expect to be with the right person? The fact
that someone is the right person is not true.
Compromises and good times would be there
with all. What makes it right is how the two of
you make it work. Forget about a concept like
the right person.
No 8 - Nothing In Love Is Certain
Yes, destiny is there, but why blame it all on
destiny or certainty. It is even how you handle
and make things work for yourself.
Ultimately, you are the one making the choice
and things are in your hand as well. Love is not
uncertain, one’s choices show if it is certain or
not.
Well - do the misconceptions make sense to
you? They have a meaning if you reflect upon
it.
Facts About Love And Romance
You will love this part of the facts about love
and romance. Enjoy them even if they seem
exaggerated. For the most part, they are true
and it happens with a lot of people. Take a
look!
No 1 - Eyes Say It All
This is the happiest and best part about
being in love and that is an undisturbed eye
contact. The couples in love look at each other
for minutes together in a way that they feel
enigmatic. Have you been there?
No 2 - Love Is Beyond Happiness
One cannot quantify what they feel when they
are in love. However, it can be expressed
through gestures. Even love gestures can
never explain the happiness within.
No 3 - You Are Bound To Be Blind
The saying that Love is blind makes sense.
People lose their capacity to think when they
have emotions gathered around them. Ever
experienced this? It is true if you reflect upon
your experiences.
No 4 - Love Can Make Or Break Your
Health
Indirectly or directly a person in love is going to
be mentally and physically healthy because all
the hormones communicate well with the body.
Contrarily, being in love can do bad to one’s
health because if a person is disappointed or
heartbroken it can hit on one’s health.

No 5 - There Are Phases In Love
If you are dreaming of feeling the same as you
feel in the beginning when you are in love is as
good as a fairy tale.
The fact is that different phases come by just
like how you don’t just grow up at once, it first
starts with crawling.
No 6 - Love Can Be Deceiving
If you are the only one in love or you have
been cheated, there are chances that you tend
to still be in love with that person. That being
said, you are deceiving your own-self and this
happens with most of us.
No 7 - Love Has The Power To
Change You
Being in love can make people change,
introverts can become extroverts and hyper
people can get sober. The fact that couples
adjust and accept each other brings in that
change.
No 8 - The Slower The Better
Its a fact that relationships that walk up the
ladder like a tortoise end up being the long-
lasting relationships. What do you think?
The reason is simple, when people are fast
they miss on understanding their partner and
tend to find faults later on and the lasting
chances are least. However, that is not the
case when love is taken slow. It lasts for real.
No 9 - There Is A Connection In Food And
Romance
It is a belief that women are more drawn to get
attracted to touch after eating a stomach full
meal.
No 10 - The Butterfly Feeling Is True
Surprisingly, the butterfly concept is a real
thing. You feel jitters in your body and this
tends to relieve you from stress. It is nice to go
through this emotion once in a way.
No 11 - A Fact From Scientists
It is believed by scientists that a person tends
to fall in love at least 7 times before being
married.
To wrap it up, there are furthermore facts and
misconceptions about love. However, these
were some of them. Now you know whether
you have a myth about certain aspects in love
and know about some facts.
Be happy with love and romance!
