El documento resume la vida y carrera política de Nelson Mandela. Nació en 1918 en Sudáfrica y se convirtió en abogado en 1942. Más tarde se unió al Congreso Nacional Africano para luchar contra el apartheid y pasó 27 años en prisión por sus esfuerzos. Finalmente fue liberado en 1990 y elegido como el primer presidente democráticamente elegido de Sudáfrica en 1994. Recibió el Premio Nobel de la Paz en 1993 por su trabajo para acabar pacíficamente con el apartheid y establecer una Sudáfrica democrática.
NELSON ROLIHLAHLA MANDELA
El padre de Mandela tuvo en total cuatro esposas, con las que engendró trece niños. Mandela era hijo de la tercera esposa de Gadla, Nosekeni Fanny, en cuyo kraal pasó gran parte de su niñez.
A los siete años, es el primer miembro de la familia que asiste a la escuela, donde recibe el nombre de "Nelson" de un maestro metodista. Mandela asiste a una misión religiosa cercana al palacio del rey thembu, y -siguiendo la costumbre xhosa- es iniciado a los dieciséis años, y asiste al Instituto Clarkebury , donde aprende acerca de la cultura occidental. Se diploma en enseñanza básica en dos años, en lugar de los tres usuales.
Luego de la independencia de Inglaterra, de la 'Unión Sudafricana' en 1910, siguió un período de unas tres décadas en el que el poder fue compartido, no sin dificultades, entre ambos grupos de descendientes hasta los años 1940 cuando el Partido Nacionalista Afrikaner pudo obtener, y mantener por muchos años, una fuerte mayoría en el gobierno.
Los estrategas del Partido Nacionalista inventaron el apartheid como una manera de asegurarse el control sobre el sistema político, social y económico de la nación. El objetivo inicial era mantener la dominación blanca y extender la separación racial. Hacia los años '60 comenzó el llamado 'Grand Apartheid' que enfatizó la separación territorial y la represión policial.
Con la sanción de las leyes del apartheid, luego del triunfo electoral del Partido Nacionalista, se institucionalizó la discriminación racial. Las leyes raciales abarcaron todos los aspectos de la vida social, incluyendo la prohibición del matrimonio y las relaciones sexuales entre blancos y no-blancos y la clasificación de algunos trabajos como 'exclusivos para blancos'.
Estudió en el Fort Hare College, donde entró en contacto con la política y conoció a Oliver Tambo. Ambos tomaron parte en una huelga estudiantil, en 1940, que supuso su expulsión del centro. Más tarde conocería a Walter Sisulu, quien le proporcionó un trabajo en un despacho jurídico.”
Hacia 1950 la Ley de Registro Poblacional requirió que todos los sudafricanos fueran clasificados racialmente dentro de una de las tres categorías siguientes: blanco, negro o 'coloreado'. La categoría de 'coloreados' incluía mayores subgrupos que abarcaban a indios, asiáticos, chinos y malayos del cabo.
La trascendencia que dejaron los actos de este gran personaje obviamente es, que logro abrir las mentalidades de todas las personas al luchar por la libertad, e igualdad racial, todos sabemos que sus actos lo llevaron a graves consecuencias, pero pongámonos a pensar sólo un momento de lo que no hubiera sucedido si este hombre no alzaba la voz.
No existe probablemente en la política de nuestro tiempo una figura más popular, admirada y universalmente respetada que el sudafricano Nelson Mandela, icono de la lucha contra el apartheid, antiguo líder del Congreso Nacional Africano (ANC), primer presidente negro de Sudáfrica y Premio Nobel de la Paz. Entre 1994 y 1999, Mandela, con su extraordinario carisma, su rechazo a las medidas radicales y su sentido de la responsabilidad, fijó los pilares políticos y económicos de la nueva Sudáfrica, y medió en los conflictos del continente, pero dejó sin resolver graves déficits sociales. Aunque jubilado de la política y pese a su avanzada edad, el mitificado estadista continúa activo en una serie de causas humanitarias
Gracias a todo lo que hiso es que ahora ya no hay discriminación racial, los hombres de color tienen libertad tanto de opinión como de otras cosas. Por lo tanto le tenemos que agradecer mucho a este personaje que por su incansable lucha y perseverancia ha recibido alrededor de 50 doctorados honoris causa por distintas universidades del mundo. Junto a la Madre Teresa de Calcuta, además de Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, ha sido el único extranjero que ha sido distinguido con Bharat Ratna, el premio civil de mayor
Nelson Mandela was born in 1918 in South Africa and earned his law degree from the University of South Africa. He joined the African National Congress party led by Anton Lembede to fight against apartheid, using protests, strikes, and civil disobedience. Mandela was imprisoned for over 20 years for treason but was later elected president of South Africa and outlawed apartheid, earning international recognition including the Nobel Peace Prize.
The document tells a story about how acts of kindness can come full circle. It describes how a poor Scottish farmer, Fleming, saved a boy who was stuck in mud. The next day, a nobleman came to thank Fleming for saving his son. Though Fleming refused a reward, the nobleman offered to educate Fleming's son. Years later, Fleming's son, Sir Alexander Fleming, discovered penicillin, which saved the nobleman's son, Sir Winston Churchill, from pneumonia. The story illustrates that good deeds create positive outcomes and that serving others benefits oneself.
This document discusses several concepts related to aging, health, and personal development. It suggests that aging is a result of forgetting how to remain new and that one's experience is defined not by what happens but how one perceives and responds to what happens. Regular habits like sufficient sleep, a healthy diet and lifestyle, social connections and an adaptive mindset are presented as factors that can increase health and delay aging effects in the body. Meditation, focused intention, and connecting with one's inner wisdom and timeless awareness are posited as ways to influence cells and renew the mind-body system.
The third issue of Ispectrum Magazine arrives full of interesting content, starting with an interview with neurosurgeon Dr. Eben Alexander, who after years of being a skeptic of NDEs (Near Death Experiences) changed his mind due to meningitis that kept him in a coma for seven days. Do you want to know what he has to tell the readers of ISPECTRUM MAGAZINE?
The document provides teachings from Swami Sukhobodhananda on living a fulfilling life. It discusses reflecting on life's lessons through stories and contemplation. It encourages the reader to serve others, be creative, and find contentment through spiritual awakening. The author hopes readers will digest the wisdom in the book and share it with others to help humanity.

The novel A Passage to India by E.M. Forster explores themes of power, religion, race, and friendship in British-ruled India in the early 20th century. The British are portrayed as enforcing a racist system that subordinates Indians, yet the novel also questions whether Indian independence could truly unify a diverse country. Religious differences are shown to divide both colonizers and colonized, though no one faith is presented as superior. The novel examines the difficulties of inter-cultural friendship between the Englishman Fielding and the Indian doctor Aziz, as they struggle to overcome barriers imposed by their political and social circumstances.

Cleanest villeage in Asia 2005 - MawlynnongJanak Shah
"Mawlynnong" --- India’s ‘Green and Clean’ village! ‘Mawlynnong’ is a small village in the north-eastern Indian state of Meghalaya -- 90km from the state capital Shillong. The village is a picture perfect painting! Discover India magazine declared Mawlynnong as the "Cleanest Village in Asia" in 2003! “The streets are all dotted with dustbins made of bamboo. Every piece of litter and almost every leaf that has fallen from a tree is immediately discarded. Plastic is completely banned and all waste disposal is environmentally friendly. Rubbish is thrown into a pit dug in a forest near the village where it is left to turn into compost”. “The villagers here say that lessons in hygiene start in school so that children can be taught from an early age how to keep their surroundings clean and green”.

An excellent slide show on India- lots of info........Janak Shah
India is a 5,000 year old civilization with a large population and diverse languages and cultures. It has a large economy that is growing rapidly, and is a world leader in many industries including IT, pharmaceuticals, and film production. It is also becoming an important location for research and development by multi-national companies due to its large talent pool of scientists, engineers, and low costs.
The document proposes a new economic system called "Arthakranti" that involves withdrawing high denomination currency above Rs. 50 and replacing the existing taxation system with a single Bank Transaction Tax (BTT) of 2% deducted from all bank transactions. This would generate substantial tax revenue for the government while eliminating black money, increasing banking and stimulating the economy. Key effects of the proposal include boosting market demand, reducing commodity prices, generating adequate tax revenue, improving infrastructure and providing social security. The goal is to create an empowered, prosperous and peaceful India free from corruption and anti-social elements.

Nehru Gandhi Family Secrets
1. INTERESTING HISTORY! At the very beginning of his book, " The Nehru Dynasty ", astrologer K.N.Rao mentions the names of Jawaharlal's father and grandfather. Jawahar Lal's father was believed to be Motilal and Motilal's father was one Gangadhar Nehru. And we all know that Jawaharlal's only daughter was Indira Priyadarshini Nehru; Kamala Nehru was her mother, who died in Switzerland of tuberculosis. She was totally against Indira's proposed marriage with Feroze. Why? No one tells us that! Now, who is this Feroze? We are told by many that he was the son of the family grocer . The grocer supplied wines,etc. to Anand Bhavan (previously known as Ishrat Manzil) What was the family grocer's name? One frequently hears that Rajiv Gandhi's grandfather was Pandit Nehru. But then we all know that everyone has two grandfathers, the paternal and the maternal grandfathers . In fact, the paternal grandfather is deemed to be the more important grandfather in most societies.
2. Why is it then, no where, we find Rajiv Gandhi's paternal grandfather's name? It appears that the reason is simply this. Rajiv Gandhi's paternal grandfather was a Muslim gentleman from the Junagadh area of Gujarat. This Muslim grocer by the name of Nawab Khan, had married a Parsi woman after converting her to Islam. This is the source where from the myth of Rajiv being a Parsi was derived. Rajiv's father Feroze, was Feroze Khan before he married Indira, against Kamala Nehru's wishes. Feroze's mother's family name was Ghandy , often associated with Parsis and this was changed to Gandhi,sometime before his wedding with Indira, by an affidavit. The fact of the matter is that (and this fact can be found in many writings) Indira was very lonely. Chased out of the Shantiniketan University by Guru Dev Rabindranath himself for misdemeanor, the lonely girl was all by herself, while father Jawahar was busy with politics, pretty women and illicit sex; the mother was in hospital. Feroze Khan, the grocer's son was then in England and he was quite sympathetic to Indira and soon enough she changed her religion, became a Muslim woman and married Feroze Khan in a London mosque.
3. Nehru was not happy; Kamala was dead already or dying. The news of this marriage eventually reached Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (better known as Mahatma Gandhi) . Gandhi urgently called Nehru and practically ordered him to ask the young man to change his name from Khan to Gandhi . It had nothing to do with change of religion, from Islam to Hinduism for instance. It was just a case of a change of name by an affidavit. And so Feroze Khan became Feroze Gandhi . The surprising thing is that the apostle of truth , the old man soon to be declared India's Mahatma and the 'Father of the Nation' didn't mention this game of his in the famous book, 'My Experiments with Truth' . Why? When they returned to India, amock 'Vedic marriage' was instituted for public consumption. On this subject,writes M.O. Mathai (a longtime Private Secretary of Nehru) in his renowned (but now suppressed by the GOI! ) 'Reminiscences of the Nehru Age' on page94, second paragraph: " For some inexplicable reason, Nehru allowed the marriage to be performed according to Vedic rites in 1942. An inter-religious and inter-caste marriage under Vedic rites at that time was not valid in law. To be legal, it had to be a civil marriage ."
4. It's a known fact that after Rajiv's birth Indira and Feroze lived separately, but they were not divorced . Feroze used to harass Nehru frequently for money and also interfere in Nehru's political activities. Nehru got fed up and left instructions not to allow him into the Prime Minister's residence Trimurthi Bhavan. Mathai writes that the death of Feroze came as a relief to Nehru and Indira. The death of Feroze in 1960 before he could consolidate his own political forces, is itself a mystery. Feroze had even planned to remarry. Those who try to keep tabs on our leaders in spite of all the suppressions and deliberate misinformation, are aware of the fact that the second son of Indira (or Mrs.Feroze Khan) known as Sanjay Gandhi was not the son of Feroze . He was the son of another Muslim gentleman, Mohammad Yunus. Here, in passing, we might mention that the second son was originally named Sanjiv . It rhymed with Rajiv, the elder brother's name. It was changed to Sanjay when he was arrested by the British police in England and his passport impounded, for having stolen a car. Krishna Menon was then India's High Commissioner in London. He offered to issue another passport to the felon who changed his name to Sanjay.
5. Incidentally, Sanjay's marriage with the Sikh girl Menaka (now they call her Maneka for Indira Gandhi found the name of mythological Lord Indra's Court dancer rather offensive !!) took place quite surprisingly in Mohammad Yunus's house in New Delhi. And the marriage with Menaka who was a model (She had model for Bombay Dyeing wearing just a towel) was not so ordinary either. Sanjay was notorious in getting unwed young women pregnant. Menaka too was rendered pregnant by Sanjay. It was then that her father,Colonel Anand, threatened Sanjay with dire consequences if he did not marry her daughter. And that did the trick. Sanjay married Menaka. It was widely reported in Delhi at the time that Mohammad Yunus was unhappy at the marriage of Sanjay with Menaka. Apparently he had wanted to get him married with a Muslim girl of his choice. It was Mohammad Yunus who cried the most when Sanjay died in the plane accident.
6. In Yunus's book, 'Persons, Passions & Politics' one discovers that baby Sanjay had been circumcised following Islamic custom, although the reason stated was phimosis. It was always believed that Sanjay used to blackmail Indira Gandhi and due to this she used to turn a blind eye when Sanjay Gandhi started to run the country as though it were his personal freedom . Was he black mailing her with the secret of who his real father was? When the news of Sanjay's death reached Indira Gandhi, the first thing she wanted to know was about the bunch of keys which Sanjay had with him.

8. In November 1949 a convent in Bangalore sent a decent looking person to Delhi with a bundle of letters. He said that a young woman from northern India arrived at the convent a few months ago and gave birth to a baby boy. She refused to divulge her name or give any particulars about herself. She left the convent as soon as she was well enough to move out but left the child behind. She however forgot to take with her a small cloth bundle in which, among other things, several letters in Hindi were found. The Mother Superior, who was a foreigner, had the letters examined and was told they were from the Prime Minister. The person who brought the letters surrendered them..."I (Mathai) made discreet inquiries repeatedly about the boy but failed to get a clue about his hereabouts. Convents in such matters are extremely tightlipped and secretive. Had I succeeded in locating the boy, I would have adopted him. He must have grown up as a Catholic Christian blissfully ignorant of who his father was."
9. Coming back to Rajiv Gandhi, we all know now that he changed his so called Parsi religion to become a Catholic to marry Sania Maino of Turin, Italy. Rajiv became Roberto . His daughter's name is Bianca and son's name is Raul . Quite cleverly the same names are presented to the people of India as Priyanka and Rahul. What is amazing is the extent of our people's ignorance in such matters. The press conference that Rajiv Gandhi gave in London after taking over as Prime minister of India was very informative. In this press conference, Rajiv boasted that he was NOT a Hindu but a Parsi. Mind you, speaking of the Parsi religion, he had no Parsi ancestor at all . His grandmother (father's mother) had turned Muslim after having abandoned the Parsi religion to marry Nawab Khan.
10. It is the western press that waged a blitz of misinformation on behalf of Rajiv. From the New York Times to the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post, the big guns raised Rajiv to heaven. The children's encyclopedias recorded that Rajiv was a qualified Mechanical Engineer from the revered University of Cambridge. No doubt US kids are among the most misinformed in the world today! The reality is that in all three years of his tenure at that University Rajiv had not passed a single exam. He had therefore to leave Cambridge without a certificate. Sonia too had the same benevolent treatment. She was stated to be a student in Cambridge. Such a description is calculated to mislead Indians. She was a student in Cambridge all right, but not of the University of Cambridge , but of one of those fly by night language schools where foreign students come to learn English. Sonia was working as an 'au pair' girl in Cambridge and trying to learn English at the same time. And surprise of surprises, Rajiv was even cremated as per Vedic rites in full view of India's public.
11. This is the Nehru dynasty that India worships and now a foreigner leads a prestigious national party because of just one qualification being married into the Nehru family. Maneka Gandhi, though Indian, herself is being accepted by the non-Congress parties not because she was a former model or an animal lover, but for her links to the Nehru family. Saying that an Italian (or any foreigner ) should not lead India will amount to narrow mindedness, but if Sania Maino (now Sonia) had served India like, say, Mother Teresa or Annie Besant, i.e. in anyway on her own rights , then all Indians should be proud of her just as how proud we are of Mother Teresa. OR Saying that any other party which comes to rule India is better is again equally worse. The point is Indians who nominate the people to stand in these elections; and the people who vote their rulers (i.e. the authorities) must know that truth eventually come out some day. Dont allow the famous land of India (our motherland) to be looked down by others.
