The document discusses the importance of spending youth productively rather than indulging in fleeting pleasures. It states that if youth is wasted in indulgences, it will result in misfortunes and pains in this life and the next. However, if the blessings of youth are used worshipfully under Islamic discipline, it will be fruitful and gain eternal youth. It also explains that a life without belief or with ineffective belief will produce far more pains than superficial pleasures. By contrast, building life upon belief in Allah will illuminate and fill life with true pleasures. The document urges youth to animate their lives with belief, religious obligations, and abstaining from sins in order to find true enjoyment in this world.
Blessed be God! there is one being who
changes not. And it is of Jesus Christ our
Lord, ''the chief among ten thousand" and
"the one altogether lovely," that this match-
less word is spoken.
So, if we wish to know what Jesus is, we
only need to find out what He was, when He
walked among men. What He was in the
yesterday of His earthly life, He is in the
to-day of His heavenly life, and shall be for-
ever.

We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
After Buddha Sakyamuni and Jesus Christ,Xuefeng (Deiform Buddha) followed Revelation founding Lifechanyuan to give the last course for human beings to learn and follow since year 2003. This article is about his ideal.
Blinded by the dense fog of “civilization”, mankind has been straying further and further away from the great road in despite of the teaching of God and Buddha.
The people favored by God and Buddha are still miserably shackled in spirit and soul. In this bustling world overrun with desire for material acquisition, people with a purer and better heart are more prone to spiritual and psychological tortures, and cannot afford even a moment of peace and quiet.
I want to tell people that the plight of mankind does of lie in the material aspect but in the spiritual aspect.The wasteland of spirit and soul is the real source of human suffering.
Man’s worry originates partly from ignorance and partly from selfishness. Because of ignorance, we have invited demons in but shut the door against God and Buddha. Because of selfishness, we have chosen wickedness but abandoned righteousness.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Youth With And Without Belief
By Bediuzzaman Sa`id Nursi
A Muslim Scholar—Turkey
If Y outh is wasted in indulgences, it will result in thousands of misfortunes and pains
One day a number of bright young people came to me, seeking an effective deterrent to
guard themselves against the danger arising from modern worldly life, youth, and animal
desires. As I had previously told other young people who sought help, I also said to them:
Your youth will definitely disappear, and if you do not restrict yourselves within the limits of
the lawful, it will be lost. Rather than its pleasures, it will bring you suffering and calamities
in this world, in the grave, and in the hereafter. If under the Islamic discipline you use the
blessings of youth worshipfully, gratefully, chastely and uprightly, it will definitely be fruitful
and will be a cause for gaining eternal youth.
As for life, if it is without belief — or if belief, because of rebelliousness, is ineffective — it
will produce pains, sorrows and grief far exceeding the superficial, fleeting enjoyment and
pleasure it may bring. Unlike animals, man, as an intelligent, thinking being, is intrinsically
connected to the past and the future, as well as to the present time. He derives both pain
and pleasure from them. Whereas, since the animals do not think, neither the sorrows
2. arising from the past nor the fears and anxieties concerning the future spoil their present
pleasure. But if man has fallen into misguidance and heedlessness, sorrows over what was
done or missed in the past and anxieties about the future will mar his illicit pleasure,
diluting it with pains. Such pleasure is like poisoned honey. This means that, with respect to
enjoyments of life, misguided people are even a hundred times lower than the animals.
By contrast, when people build their lives upon belief in Almighty Allah, their past, present
and future — and in fact their whole lives — will be illuminated by that belief and be filled
with true pleasures and lights of existence for their spirit and heart.
Where the Pleasure of Life Lies
So, that is how life is. If you desire the true meaning of pleasure and enjoyment in this
world, animate your life with belief; adorn it with religious obligations; and maintain it by
abstaining from sins. As for the fearsome reality of death, which is demonstrated by
instances of death every day, in every place and time, I shall explain it to you with a
parable in the same way as I explained it to some other youths.
Let us suppose a gallows has been set up here in front of our eyes. Next to it, there is a
lottery office, one which gives tickets for truly high prizes. We are here ten people, and
willingly or unwillingly, shall certainly be invited there. They may call us at any moment —
since the appointed time is unknown to us — and say either, “Come and mount the gallows
for execution!” or “A prize ticket worth millions of dollars has come up for you; come and
collect it!” While we are waiting for either call, two people suddenly turn up. One of them is
a scantily dressed woman, beautiful and alluring. She holds in her hand and offers some
apparently very delicious, but in fact poisonous, sweets, which she wants us to eat. The
other is an honest, solemn man, who enters behind the woman and says:
“I have brought you a talisman, a lesson. If you study it, and if you do not eat the sweets,
you will be saved from the gallows. With this talisman, you will receive your ticket for the
matchless prize." You see with your own eyes that those who eat the sweets inevitably
mount the gallows, and furthermore, until they mount them, they suffer dreadful stomach
pains from the poison of the sweets. As for those who receive the ticket for the big prize, it
seems that they too mount the gallows. But millions of witnesses testify that they are not
hanged on the gallows, yet they use them as a step to enter the prize arena easily. So, look
from the windows! The top officials and the high-ranking figures concerned with this
3. business announce with loud voices, ‘Just as you see clearly with your own eyes those
mounting the gallows to be hanged, so also know with utmost certainty that those with the
talisman receive the ticket for the prize.’”
As in the parable, the dissolute, religiously forbidden pleasures of youth — which are like
poisonous sweets — are the cause of losing belief, which is the ticket to an eternal treasury
and a document for everlasting happiness. Those who indulge in them are subject to death,
represented by the gallows here, and to the tribulations of the grave, which is the door to
eternal darkness. The appointed hour of death is unknown; therefore, the executioner, not
differentiating between young and old, may come at any time to cut off your head. Give up
the forbidden pleasures (the poisonous sweets), and hold onto the talisman (faith in Allah
and observance of religious obligations). Almighty Allah sent many prophets and
messengers (peace and blessings be upon them) to proclaim that you will get to the
treasury of eternal happiness if you choose the right path, which they made clear with many
signs and proofs. And this was also proclaimed by an untold number of pious people.
Youth Spent in Indulgences
Youth will certainly pass. If it is wasted in indulgences, it will result in thousands of
misfortunes and pains both in this world and the next. Perhaps you want to understand how
such youths end up in hospitals with mental and physical diseases, mainly because of their
abuse, and in prisons or hostels for the destitute as a result of their excesses, and in bars
because of the distress provoked by their spiritual unease. Then, go and inquire at the
hospitals, prisons and cemeteries.
For sure you will hear from most of the hospitals the moans and groans of those ill from
dissipation and debauchery resulting from the uncontrollable appetites of youth. Also you
will hear from the prisons the regretful sighs of unhappy wretches, suffering for illicit actions
mostly resulting from the excesses of their youth. Indeed, most of the torments of the
grave — that intermediate realm whose doors continuously open and shut for those who
enter it — are the result of misspent youth. You can know the truth of the matter from the
Qur’an and the hadiths, as well as the righteous scholars.
Ask the old and the sick about this matter, and the great majority of them will answer you
with grief and regret, “Alas! We wasted our youth in frivolities, indeed harmfully. Be careful,
never do as we did!” A man with no faith or wisdom may subject himself — for the sake of
4. the illicit pleasures of a short period of youth — to years of grief and sorrow in this world,
torment and harm in the intermediate realm, and the severe punishment of Hell in the
hereafter. Despite being in a most pitiable situation, he does not deserve any pity. That is
because one who freely consents to indulging in harmful and unlawful actions is not worthy
of pity.
May Almighty Allah save us and you from the alluring temptations of this age and preserve
us against them. Amen.
