We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Civic engagement or civic participation has been defined as "Individual and collective actions designed to identify and address issues of public concern." Civic engagement has many elements, but in its most basic sense it is about decision making, or governance and about who and how and by whom a community's resources will be allocated. The principle of civic engagement underscores the most basic principle of democratic governance, i.e. that sovereignty resides ultimately in the people- in the citizenry. Civic engagement is about the right of the people to define the public good, determine the policies by which they will seek the good, and reform or replace institutions that do not serve that good.Civic engagement can take many forms — from individual volunteerism to organizational involvement to electoral participation. It can include efforts to directly address an issue, work with others in a community to solve a problem or interact with the institutions of representative democracy. Another way of describing this concept is the sense of personal responsibility individuals should feel to uphold their obligations, as part of any community.Civic engagement would mean :Providing right of way to public utilities over your propertyCleaning up after your dog on its walks on streets and not peeing in public swimming poolsRushing to the aid of victims of accidents and street-crime and testifying as a witness later in court.[4] Being the eyes and the ears of your neighbourhood/ work placeReturning books borrowed from public libraries in time (people may be eagerly awaiting them) and without vandalising or marking on them, and while there, observing silenceStaying at home if down with flu and reporting contagious illnesses or pestilence to public-health authorities. Not overdosing or underdosing antibiotics (germs develop resistance to them later on)Turning taps or switching lights off, when not in use (water or power saved can be used by many)Articulating complaints or enquiries well (in person, on the phone, or in writing), keeping them to the point, coming in with all the paperwork, complete beforehand (persons in-charge have to attend to everyone and are hard pressed for time)Reading newspapers (online news portals give many other points of view of the same news), keeping current with issues on the TV (rather than watching soaps or sitcoms), watching films which ‘enrich’ – not mindless entertainmentTaking humanities/social science courses, and heading for the section on them in a library, or sites about them on the internet.Voting in or standing for elections, and keeping a tab on the past and present track record of those electedfiling right to/freedom of information applications to keep a tab on goings onPaying taxes and investing capital in one's own community or countryStocking up only as much as would be needed during shortages (other families may be in desperate need)Not overdrawing from wells, overgrazing or overfishing (nature has enough for everyone's needs but not for anyone's greed)Offering rides to hitchhikersBuying war-bonds or donating money or unexpired medicine to relief-funds in times of needPursuing instances of injustice by protesting these before authorities, the media or courts of law (setting a precedent stops others falling victim to the same injustice)Not jumping queues, whether in person or when applying for public favours (imagine if everyone starts doing the same!)Not forgetting to flush after use in public washroomsVolunteering for military duty and for public services (e.g.: life-saving drills, teaching others by transferring skills to them, sharing expertise by say, answering questions posted by the internet-community)Choosing entrepreneurship over employment (being employed gives you a single job, being an entrepreneur generates jobs for many in your community, increasing national wealth as a bonus)Getting trained and licensed before engaging in a job involving safety of life or propertyRemembering to donate blood from time to time to stave off shortages at 'blood banks'Avoiding double-parking on streetsAvoiding rushing in at the last minute, hogging the time of the staff, just when they are about to close for the day (they have a home to go to)Gathering all waste (especially plastic) on outings to parks or waterfrontsNotifying marriages, births and deathsAnswering public survey questionnairesReporting a treasure, antiquity or minerals (like oil) radiation (ionising and non-ionising) discovered on your property or sunken treasure off a coastKeeping mobile phones on the silent during movies, plays or concerts and avoid arriving after they have commencedStocking up small change sufficient to avoid getting them in exchange for higher currency notes(bills) and offering them to the needyReusing, repairing or recycling things to postpone having to buy new ones (the earth has only so much of raw materials and even lesser of landfills to dump discarded stuff)Spending time with the elderly (milestones of the past may well chart out paths to the future), offering them or parents carrying infants a seat, and helping them with their luggageBroaching civic issues of common interest with people around – and not engaging in mindless gossipSeeing the ‘bigger picture’ when engaging with or organising people for a social cause – identifying issues which would affect the maximum number of people, letting go of some personal gains in the short run.
