Youth eludes Religious Festivals-Traditions on the Verge of Extinction.But Hope Prevails.

It is hard to muster up courage to pull a string, which is bound to send disturbing, serious & alarming signals within a particular community.It may not be the ultimate truth,(and I wish it should not be, too) but, I think it is high and ripe time to know that the religious festivals of kashmeeri pandit community are slowly but harmfully, losing the credibility among the youth, who, overburdened by the existing work culture,don’t seem to be having enough time at their disposal, to devote towards solemnizing these religious festivals together with their families,though unwillingly of course.

But, one day or the other, we may have to taste the bitter pill of seeing our religious festivals extinct, and just be a thing of past for the future generations.I am not trying to be pessimistic about the prevailing scenario,but it is just a matter of time now.

If we can’t stop anything untoward, from happening, we can at least contribute wholeheartedly towards, dissemination of our cultural heritage and importance of solemnizing religious festivals together with the family,in whatever way we think,is going to help.

Let us all hope that our children are free to take some time off from their busy and hectic work schedule in order to be, at a place they ought to be, during the celebrations of religious and family festivals.

HOPE….. is the only reason to believe that time is still……. WITH US… & Everything is not lost.

Youth

YOUTH,I think is the most agile, ambitious, colorful, caring, enterprising, Intelligent,promising,social, vibrant and most importantly virtuous, section of the society, in the contemporary world.

youth carries with him, the colors,which,when together,give rise to a color of oneness. A color of Unity.

A STRONG FEELING OF SOLIDARITY.That is …YOUTH.

Happy Mother’s Day

When a father uses his brain, to set, that of his child’s right,a mother,no matter how intelligent she is,immediately intervenes, just to take the side of the erring child.

let us not discuss the repercussions of, thus arisen situation,because we all know that it may not be that healthy,But have we ever thought about this,as to what makes a mother to react so involuntarily and spontaneously to a situation,which she,at the very first place,would have thought of,being away from.But she still jumps into it.Why?yes absolutely it is the immence love,boundless affection(MAMTA) and the grandeur of being the “JANANI”THE MOTHER of her beloved child.

But, let us not ignore the first part of the post and at the same time I would insist everyone to feel PROUD of the later part of it.Because it is something which has God’s approval.

The Viewpoint wishes all the mothers,the world over,good health,happiness,contentment,and last but not the least abundant MAMTA with logical sense of responsibility.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY.

Smoking Kills… A Thought For Youth

Time for our youth to give heed to some good thoughts that come their way.

Dear youth, shun smoking if you at all smoke.Smoking not only affects your health but it invades your peaceful and eventful life.What otherwise could be a reason to be proud of,becomes a nuisance.

Polish your ways of living and sharpen your approach to life and feel the difference for yourself.

I bet you will feel yourself on top of the world.

Mother Tongue.A Connect

Very recently I had a proud privilege of meeting a 65 year old NRI settled in UK, in a marriage party.

Engineer by profession and author of various books on metro and tunneling,is still very energetic and a wonderful person.His son is a renowned interventional cardiologist in USA.

Well, all this was very important to share with you just to tell you that the old man’s grandson who is hardly 4 yr old,not only understands kashmeeri but makes a sincere effort to speak as well with the help of his parents and grand parents .

Isn’t that something we need to acknowledge with pride.Hats off to these true kashmeeries. God bless them and their families.

I salute their sincere service to the community.
