“In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, water along with other resources has become the victim of his indifference”- Rachel Carson.

                                 Water is the most precious resource on this earth. It is also the most valuable and also the most wasted resource. Have you ever wondered how much water is being wasted in our home ?  Daily we waste gallons of water in our homes like for bathing, cooking, washing etc. 
                                But we do not realize that our water supply is limited, which means that we do not have an endless supply. 97 percent of all the earth's water is salt water, found in oceans and seas, which is not suitable for drinking. Only 3 percent of all the earth's water is fresh water and only one percent of it is available for drinking. Remaining 2 percent is in frozen form. 
                                Now with millions of people relying on such a small percentage, it only makes sense, that we must  preserve and conserve water. 
                                We could get water from sea. Scientists have tried to change sea water to drinking water, but it has been very very hard. So the only option left with us is ground water.  
                                 It is hard to find clean water now-a-days. Therefore we should save water. Water is life. Our own existence depends on water. We cannot survive without water. We should use our water wisely and care for it properly. Since our life depends on it,  it is our responsibility to learn more and more about water conservation. 
                                We should learn how to keep our water pure and safe, for our future generations to come. Some people do not realize the importance of water. We must not pollute the water. Water is the foundation of food and life. Saving water helps preserve our environment. We need to conserve water so that our trees and plants have life. 
                                 These things are not very hard.  All it takes is a little bit of extra effort. Therefore SAVE WATER......it's all we have have got.... 

The beautiful Sunset.

                               There is beauty in everything. All the natural things we see around us, has beauty hidden in it. The sunset, as we experience it in reality, has the most pure, untainted, untouched, intangible form of beauty. Recently, when I was travelling on a train, I looked out of the window, to see a beautiful sunset over the horizon. I suddenly was over come by a sense of calmness and inner peace. I began to look endlessly into the most beautiful sunset that I have seen. 
                               Suddenly, it came to my mind that I have a camera in my mobile. At once I grabbed my mobile, and took some photographs. 

Significance Of Ganesh in our Life.

                                

                        Ganesha's head symbolizes the Atmaa (soul), which is the ultimate supreme reality of human existence. 
                         His human body signifies Maya or the earthly existence of human beings.
                         The elephant head denotes wisdom and its trunk represents Om, the sound symbol of cosmic reality.  
                         In his upper right hand Ganesha holds a goad, which helps him propel mankind forward on the eternal path and remove obstacles from the way. 
                         The noose in Ganesha's left hand is a gentle implement to capture all difficulties.
                         The broken tusk that Ganesha holds like a pen in his lower right hand is a symbol of sacrifice, which he broke for writing the Mahabharata. 
                        The rosary in his other hand suggests that the pursuit of knowledge should be continuous. 
                       The laddoo (sweet) he holds in his trunk indicates that one must discover the sweetness of the Atmaa. 
                       His fan-like ears convey that he is all ears to our petition. 
                       The snake that runs round his waist represents energy in all forms. 
                       And he is humble enough to ride the lowest of creatures, a mouse.
