Ramayana Essay
Ramayana
Ramayana and some of the Hindu virtues derived from it The poetic author, Valmiki, does not calls Rama "the perfect man" in his well known tale of
Ramayana for no reason. For this story has been a legendary epic that many generations of the Hindu culture have been modeling their society after,
for over two thousand years. It has been an influential teaching for children and scholars of all ages because of its simplicity and exemplary concepts
and virtues of the Hindu people. From childhood most Indians learn the characters and incidents of this epic and they furnish the morals, ideals and
wisdom of common life. This epic helps to bind...show more content...
He handles the situation with remarkably patient and wise attitude and says to his stepmother, "I gladly obey father's command ...Why, I would go
even if you ordered it.". By doing this, he shows characteristics of great piety to his parents and the lack of desire to be a powerful and authoritative
rich ruler, all while knowing that he is giving up his righteous turn to rule the kingdom since he is the oldest of the four sons of the king. Instead, he
willingly goes off into exile – forest infested with evil spirits whom he battles with the power of good and defeats. As in most of the Eastern world,
this example of respect being paid to elders, parents, authorities (no matter what one is commanded to do) is very important in one's 'faith'; and the fact
that one successfully wards off evil, gives him/her the title of a cultural model hero, just as seen in Rama's case. Rama's casual attitude about going off
into the forest for fourteen years also shows his asceticism – the will to give up his material, emotional and physical attachments. His peaceful and
patient attitude towards his life is vivid due to his enduring wisdom. For he goes beyond the material and physical world

Nehru and Partition
History 383: Final Paper
Assess the role of Nehru in the Partition of India.
Introduction
August 1947, the British Empire in India came to an end and two new independent countries were formed. Partition was a momentous event that
was accompanied by widespread carnage and bloodshed, and left behind a legacy of refugee and border issues. It is historically impossible and
inaccurate to identify a specific cause of Partition, instead it maybe understood that a series of political and social events lead to the dissection of
British India. This paper seeks to evaluate the role of an important leader in the Partition of India–Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. In order to do this it is
essential that we examine the relationship between Nehru, Gandhi and...show more content...
Jinnah: The Promoter of Hindu–Muslim Unity
A lawyer by profession, Jinnah began his political career as the private secretary of Dadabhai Naoroji, one of the founders of the Indian National
Congress. He was elected to the Imperial Legislative Council in 1909, and immediately attached himself to Gokhale. Jinnah did not immediately join
the Muslim League until 1913 when pressurized to do so by co–religionists. However as soon as he joined the League he "tried to bring its aims in line
with the Congress ideals". S.K.Majumdar writes in his book 'Jinnah and Gandhi'–"After he[Jinnah] joined the Muslim League formally, the antagonism,
if any, between the Congress and the League began to vanish." The most important step taken was the Lucknow Pact of 1916. Both parties held their
annual meetings at Lucknow; at the session of the League Jinnah stressed the importance of acting "in co–operation with the Hindus for the political
upliftment of the country." Jinnah and other leaders of the League also made it clear that separate electorates and other safeguards were only required
to "make up for the present backwardness" of the Muslims.
The Lucknow Pact was an important landmark in the process of Hindu–Muslim unity. It represented an agreement at the national level between the two
parties whereby they would share power in the executive and the legislature.
A respected Congress leader and idol of young nationalists, Jinnah did not

India's Five Years Plan
Origin
Five year plans were first introduced in the erstwhile Soviet Union in 1928 for controlled and rapid economic development. Much of the Soviet
industrial successes are a result of the implementation of its five year plans. In 1950, India's prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, impressed by the
Soviet system, adopted five year plans as a model for economic development, and established the Planning Commission which was to act independent
of any cabinet and was answerable only to the Prime Minister, who is also Chairperson of the commission. Draft plans were to be approved by the
National Development Council, comprising the Planning Commission and the Chief Ministers of all states. An approved plan is then passed by the
cabinet and then in...show more content...
But Nehru favors controls over private enterprise. "An army," he explained, "does not occupy a country by placing a soldier in every nook and cranny:
a gun mounted on a hill enables an army to control surrounding areas effectively."
Overview of the Plans
The economy in India is based in part on planning through its five years plans developed, executed and monitored by the Planning Commission. With
the Prime Minister as the ex officio Chairman, the commission has a nominated Deputy Chairman, who has rank of a Cabinet minister. Montek Singh
Ahluwalia is currently the Deputy Chairman of the Commission. The tenth plan completed its term in March 2007 and the eleventh plan is currently
underway.
In 1951, India's first Five Year Plan (1951–55) was unveiled. While the first plan placed greater emphasis on agriculture, the second Five Year Plan
(1956–60) sought to build up an industrial base for the country, particularly in the public sector. However, the chief landmark in this period was wide
ranging and broad–based reforms in the village power structure by the abolition of the Zamindari system and the creation of cooperatives among the
rural poor to stimulate agricultural growth. The Third Five Year Plan (1961–65) was interrupted by the 1962 war with China and the 1965 war with
Pakistan, and it was evident that its targets would not be met. Its main basis was the conviction that an increase in agricultural

Herbal Medicine Essay
Alternative medicine has been around for centuries, although it has just started to become very popular in countries such as The United States. Many
people now are following the trend without knowing anything about alternative medicine. People should be aware of the benefits as well as the
precautions involved in taking these natural remedies.
The most common form of alternative medicine nowadays is herbal medicines. These natural remedies can be found in millions of American homes
today. Herbal medicine is probably the most widely used of the alternative medicines. Herbal medicine is a part of homeopathy, which is an alternative
system of healing that uses very small doses of substances to relieve specific symptoms (2). Traditional...show more content...
It is designed to treat the person, not just the disease.
Alternative medicine emphasizes the individual person. "Because of it holistic view of the body/mind, it is more specific for each patient's needs
than is Western medicine"(9). For example, five women may come into a clinic with the same problem, but each of the problems is accompanied by a
variety of different signs and symptoms, no two of which are exactly alike. Instead of each woman getting the same treatment, each of these five
women will receive an individually tailored treatment plan with different herbs, different acupuncture therapy, and different lifestyle suggestions (9).
Alternative medicine has no side effects. "Because treatment is so specifically tailored to each person, if the diagnosis has been correct, the treatments
prescribed by Alternative medicine should have no side effects"(9). Any mild side effects that may arise in the initial stages of herbal treatment can be
corrected by adjustments to the herbal formula. Most drugs prescribed by doctors have at least some expected and normal side effects and many have
potentially serious, irreversible ones.
Alternative medicine has a strong emphasis on prevention. In Western medicine, diagnosis can only be made and treatment given if there are
measurable material or tissue changes that show up in pictures or in blood or fluid tests(5). If a person complains of symptoms which cannot be
measured by these tests,
