Diwali Lakshmi Puja 2012

Lakshmi Puja Muhurta = 17:20:29 to 19:16:48
Duration = one Hour 56 Mins
Pradosh Kaal = 17:12:29 to 19:51:51
Vrishabha Kaal = 17:20:29 to 19:16:48.

Lakshmi Puja should be done during Pradosh Kaal which starts after sunset and approximately lasts for 2 hours and 24 minutes. Pundit Mahesh Shastriji (please visit www.mypanchang.com to know more about Panditji work) proposes Mahanishita Kaal also to perform Lakshmi Puja. In our opinion Mahanishita Kaal is best suited for Tantrik community and practicing Pandits who know the best about Lakshmi Puja during this special time. For common people we propose Pradosh Kaal Muhurta.
We don’t advise to choose Choghadiya Muhurta to perform Lakshmi Puja as those Muhurtas are good only for travelling. The best time for Lakshmi Puja is during Pradosh Kaal when Sthir Lagna prevails. Sthir means fixed i.e. not moveable. If Lakshmi Puja is done during Sthir Lagna, Lakshmiji will stay in your home; hence this time is the best for Lakshmi Pujan. Vrishabha Lagna is considered as Sthir and mostly overlaps with Pradosh Kaal during Diwali festivity.

I Am

I Am like that.

I am simple,

Without any pimple,

Without any dimple,

Like an apple,

With ample,

But not sample,

Only single,

Never to mingle,

Not to couple,

Only with people,

Not to topple,

Not to ridicule,

Not a bubble,

Not to double,

Not to cobble,

Away from fable,

To become able,

And capable to lead,

Only and only to succeed,

Not to plead,

Only with my deed,

I want to succeed,

I only aspire,

Not to perspire,

But to inspire,

But not to expire,

Without finishing my work,

Without any jerk,

Though it may be quirk,

But I will do only what I want,

Without any warrant,

Success or failure I don’t want to know,

I only work for now,

As it’s better now then never,

And I think I am clever,

Enough to lead,

Cast myself away from breed,

Live the way I want,

I don’t want to live if I can’t,

That’s only my need,

And that’s all I need.

Anti Islam Film- Adequate or Not

Innocence of Muslims:- A film that depicted riots caused riots.

It’s just not a film,

It’s a prism,

A prism that shows realism,

Not only conceptualism,

Not only baptism,

It’s not idealism,

It’s just idiotism,

It’s just genoism,

Done to cause cannibalism,

This is neologism,

This is tribalism,

Not truism,

Not altruism,

It’s capitalism,

It’s not communism,

It’s fascism,

It’s egoism,

It’s not deism,

It’s dism,

It’s mesmerism,

To cause plagiarism,

To cause pessimism,

To create schism,

Lack of stoicism,

Lack of existentialism,

Only extremism,

Only nihilism,

To create absolutism,

To create traditionalism,

Away from modernism,

To create racism,

Away from humanism,

It’s their mentalism,

It’s their endemism.

Lalbaugcha Raja

Lalbaugcha Raja is the popular public Ganesha idol kept at Lalbaug, a prominent locality in Mumbai during Ganesh Chaturti festival. The idol is kept for public display for Eleven days thereafter it is immersed on the auspicious day of Anant Chaturdashi.

The Mandal, formerly known as ‘Sarvajanik Ganeshotsav Mandal, Lalbaug’ was founded in 1934, because of a vow (Navas) for construction of the present Lalbaug Market at its existing place. The market place at Peru Chawl was shut down in 1932. Hence, the fishermen and vendors who used to sit in the open place vowed to Ganesha for permanent place for their market. With the consistent efforts and support of the then local Councillor-Late Shri. Kuwarji Jethabhai Shah, Dr. V. B. Korgaonkar, Shri. Nakhawa Kokam Mama, Bhausaheb Shinde, Dr. U. A. Rao and the local residents, the landlord Rajabai Tayyabali agreed to give a plot for construction of a market. As fulfillment of their wish, the fisherman and the traders established the Ganesh Idol on 12 September 1934. The idol was dressed in the customary fashion of fisherman. Since that day onwards, this Lord Ganesh has become popular as it fulfills the wishes of devotees. The Mandal was formed in the era when the freedom struggle was at its peak.

Speak It Out

You should say what you feel.

Speak it out,

No matter even in front of crowd,

Don’t be a coward,

Be brave,

No matter, the situation may be grave,

Speak in your own word,

Remember you are not owned,

Speak what you feel,

Let your wounds heal,

Some may feel bad,

And may even feel sad,

Prevent yourself from being drowned,

In the ocean of emotions,

Have mercy on your conditions,

If you won’t speak, you will burst,

And won’t be able to handle the thrust,

Speak the truth caring for none,

Speak it out even if you need to shout,

No one will come and none will hear,

If they don’t have interest they won’t bear,

Remember it’s only a bout,

All will forgive if you do,

You are a human being too,

It’s human to err,

And you should confer,

What you feel,

You need to appeal,

And need to deal,

With those who come to demolish you,

And sometimes even tarnish you,

So, You need to speak it out,

To keep them out.

Mother of Ashton Boy with Rare Disorder Gets Job at His School to Monitor Him

Mark has Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia – an inherited condition, where the body is unable to make enough hormones to retain salt and fight stress.

Tina’s eight-year-old boy Mark suffers from a rare life-threatening disorder.
He needs daily medication and an emergency shot of drugs if his body goes into shock.

So Tina vowed to make sure   she would never be far from his side. She got a job as a midday assistant at Hurst Knoll Primary School in Ashton-under-Lyneand is now able to check on him every lunchtime.
It is thought to affect just 95 people in the north west, and sufferers have to take several tablets a day to stay healthy.
Tina, of Ashton-under-Lyne, said: “Mark was really poorly as a baby and it was a big shock to us. He was losing weight and wouldn’t feed properly but we didn’t really know why so he had to be transferred from Tameside to the children’s hospital at Pendlebury.
“Doctors ran tests on him and found he had this condition, which basically means he doesn’t produce enough of certain hormones and salt so he had to have it in his milk.

When he got a bit older and was ready for school, we had to think about who would give him his medication. “It was a worry for us but a job came up at the school and I took it so I could be there if he needed me. It works well – and he copes brilliantly with everything.”
Tina and husband David, 48, have another son, Robert, 18, who does not have the condition but he could be a carrier, meaning he could potentially pass it on to his children. Mark has to undergo regular check-ups at the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital and Tina is taking part in a charity walk to thank them.
She will pull on her walking boots at Lake Windermere for the 4.5km Jane Tomlinson Walk For All on Sunday and hopes to raise hundreds of pounds for the hospital’s endocrine department.
