Switzerland is the best place to be born

The Economist’s Intelligence Unit tried to assess which country gave its children the best chance of a happy, safe and prosperous life. "Being rich helps more than anything else," they write, "but it is not all that counts; things like crime, trust in public institutions and the health of family life matter too." The final measure factors in everything from income to geography to demography. When all is said and done, Switzerland leads the list, with Australia and Norway close behind. The United States tied with Germany for 16th place.


Warren Buffett, probably the world’s most successful investor, has said that anything good that happened to him could be traced back to the fact that he was born in the right country, the United States, at the right time (1930). A quarter of a century ago, when The World in 1988 light-heartedly ranked 50 countries according to where would be the best place to be born in 1988, America indeed came top. But which country will be the best for a baby born in 2013?

To answer this, the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), a sister company of The Economist, has this time turned deadly serious. It earnestly attempts to measure which country will provide the best opportunities for a healthy, safe and prosperous life in the years ahead.

Its quality-of-life index links the results of subjective life-satisfaction surveys—how happy people say they are—to objective determinants of the quality of life across countries. Being rich helps more than anything else, but it is not all that counts; things like crime, trust in public institutions and the health of family life matter too. In all, the index takes 11 statistically significant indicators into account. They are a mixed bunch: some are fixed factors, such as geography; others change only very slowly over time (demography, many social and cultural characteristics); and some factors depend on policies and the state of the world economy.
A forward-looking element comes into play, too. Although many of the drivers of the quality of life are slow-changing, for this ranking some variables, such as income per head, need to be forecast. We use the EIU’s economic forecasts to 2030, which is roughly when children born in 2013 will reach adulthood.
Despite the global economic crisis, times have in certain respects never been so good. Output growth rates have been declining across the world, but income levels are at or near historic highs. Life expectancy continues to increase steadily and political freedoms have spread across the globe, most recently in north Africa and the Middle East. In other ways, however, the crisis has left a deep imprint—in the euro zone, but also elsewhere—particularly on unemployment and personal security. In doing so, it has eroded both family and community life.
Where to be born in 1988
What does all this, and likely developments in the years to come, mean for where a baby might be luckiest to be born in 2013? After crunching its numbers, the EIU has Switzerland comfortably in the top spot, with Australia second.

Small economies dominate the top ten. Half of these are European, but only one, the Netherlands, is from the euro zone. The Nordic countries shine, whereas the crisis-ridden south of Europe (Greece, Portugal and Spain) lags behind despite the advantage of a favourable climate. The largest European economies (Germany, France and Britain) do not do particularly well.

America, where babies will inherit the large debts of the boomer generation, languishes back in 16th place. Despite their economic dynamism, none of the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) scores impressively. Among the 80 countries covered, Nigeria comes last: it is the worst place for a baby to enter the world in 2013.

Boring is best

Quibblers will, of course, find more holes in all this than there are in a chunk of Swiss cheese. America was helped to the top spot back in 1988 by the inclusion in the ranking of a “philistine factor” (for cultural poverty) and a “yawn index” (the degree to which a country might, despite all its virtues, be irredeemably boring). Switzerland scored terribly on both counts. In the film “The Third Man”, Orson Welles’s character, the rogue Harry Lime, famously says that Italy for 30 years had war, terror and murder under the Borgias but in that time produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance; Switzerland had 500 years of peace and democracy—and produced the cuckoo clock.

However, there is surely a lot to be said for boring stability in today’s (and no doubt tomorrow’s) uncertain times. A description of the methodology is available here: food for debate all the way from Lucerne to Lagos.

Rama Navami is the day on which Lord Rama, the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu, incarnated in human form in the land of Ayodhya. He is the ardha ansh of Vishnu or has half the divinitive qualities of Lord Vishnu. The word “Rama” literally means one who is divinely blissful and who gives joy to others, and one in whom the sages rejoice.
Ram Navami falls on the ninth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Chaitra (April/May) and coincides with Vasant Navratri or Chait (Chaitra) Durga Puja. Therefore in some regions, the festival is spread over nine days. This day, marking the birthday of Lord Rama, is also observed as the marriage day of Rama and Sita and thus also referred to as Kalyanotsavam.



Significance of Ram Navami

Ram Navami is a festival that celebrates the birth of Lord Rama, the son of King Dasharath. It was a joyous occasion in Ayodhya all those centuries ago when King Dasharath's heir was finally born. It was like a dream come true for the king as the lack of an heir had troubled him sorely for many years.
Lord Rama is an Avatar of Lord Vishnu who came down to earth to battle the invincible Ravana in human form. Lord Brahma had been receiving complaints from all the gods about the havoc that Ravana was wreaking on earth, but because Lord Brahma had granted Ravana so many boons, he could not be killed by a god. But Ravana had become so overconfident that he would never expect an attack from a human being. So Lord Vishnu agreed to go to earth in the guise of Prince Ram, the son of King Dasharath and Queen Kaushalya.
The story of Lord Rama as told in the great epic Ramayana is one that most Indians know irrespective of caste, creed and religion. Lord Rama is a legendary figure, the epitome of all that is good and true, the man who vanquished the demon king, Ravana. Lord Rama is not just a hero, but has been given the status of a god by the Hindus. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that his birth is celebrated year after year with great pomp and enjoyment on the ninth day after the new moon in Sukul Paksh (the waxing moon), which falls sometime in the month of April.

The story of the Ramayan is a classic, eternal, universal message of Dharma versus adharma, of deva versus demon, of good versus evil, as represented in the battle between Rama and Ravana.

Ravana was a brahmin; he was a great scholar who wrote numerous works on scriptural philosophy. He was powerful, dynamic, and beautiful in appearance. As the brilliant, handsome king of Lanka, he had everything one would need to be happy and peaceful. Yet, he was arrogant, egoistic, greedy and lustful. His insatiable desires led him to crave more and more power, more and more money, and more and more ladies to fulfill his every whim.
There is one main difference: Bhagwan Rama’s heart overflowed with divinity, love, generosity, humility, and a sense of duty. Ravana’s heart, in contrast, was filled with avarice, hatred, and egoism. Under Bhagwan Rama’s divine touch, the animals became his devotees and his divine helpers. Under Ravana’s touch, even humans became animals.
Through his noble and divine choices, he teaches the world to choose dharma over Artha (when he leaves for the forest rather than be coronated as King) and to choose Moksha over Kama (when he chooses his kingdom over his marriage).
Bhagwan Rama teaches that :
As a son
Respectfully and lovingly obey your father’s orders. Sacrifice your own comfort for your father’s dignity.
As a step-son
Even when your step mother (or mother-in-law) is not kind to you, even when she clearly dis- criminates against you in favor of her own birth child, do not resent her, do not fight against her. Respect her and her wishes.
As a brother
Remain loyal to your brother. Care for him.
As a husband
Protect your wife. Fight for her protection and her purity. But there are times when one’s divine path must even take precedence over the path of householder. Do not keep the role of householder as the ultimate role.
As a King
Sacrifice everything for your people. Do not worry about your own comfort, your own convenience or your own pleasure. Be willing to put the kingdom ahead of your own needs.

हिंदू पंचांग के अनुसार इस वर्ष 31 मार्च 2014 को विक्रम संवत् 2071 का प्रारंभ होगा।
माना जाता है कि इसी दिन सतयुग का आरंभ हुआ और भगवान विष्णु ने मत्स्यावतार लिया था।

ज्योतिर्विदों के अनुसार इस बार वर्ष का राजा और मंत्री दोनों चंद्र होगा। इसके चलते स्वास्थ्य सेवाओं में सुधार होगा और लोगों को आरोग्यता मिलेगी।

वित्तमंत्री मंगल होने से राजनेताओं और विद्वानों में मतभेद का योग बनेगा। सूर्य पर कृषि मंत्री का जिम्मा होने से कृषि मिश्रित फलदायी रहेगी।

ज्योतिषी श्यामजी बापू के अनुसार मीन लग्न और मीन राशि में नवसंवत्सर का प्रवेश हो रहा है। जून के बाद व्यापारी और किसानों को शुभ समाचार मिलेंगे। जानिए ज्योतिष की दृष्टि से यह साल कैसा रहेगा-
तुष धान्यानि नश्यंति मेघों वर्षाति माधवे।
प्लवंगे पीडि़ता: सर्वे भूमिकम्पों भवेत्कवचित।। 
अर्थात- प्लवंग संवत् में भूसे से निकलने वाले अनाजों की फसलें नष्ट होती हैं। वैशाख मास में ही वर्षा हो जाती है। अत: खाद्यान्न की खराब उपलब्धता के कारण कष्ट होता है। कहीं भूकंप संभावित है। वर्षा मध्यम, चोरों से जनता परेशान रहेगी। आतंकवादी घटनाओं में वृद्धि होगी। तूफान, बवंडर आदि प्राकृतिक घटनाएं भी बढ़ेंगी। सरकारी विभागों में तालमेल अच्छा रहेगा। पेयजल का संकट कम ही रहेगा।
पं. ओम वशिष्ठ के अनुसार विक्रम संवत 2070 'पराभव' 30 मार्च को समाप्त होगा। नववर्ष 30 और 31 मार्च की दरमियानी रात 12.14 बजे लगेगा।

नव वर्ष की शुभकामनाए ||



Vikram Samvat 2071

Vikram samvat 2071 will begin on 31st March 2014 i.e. Chaitra shukla pratipada. Most of the people throughout the world either follow the system of the Georgian calendar or English calendar. But in India, we follow the calendar system based on the Hindu traditions, which is known as “Vikrami Samvat”. This calendar is based on the movement of moon and is widely followed by a large number of priests and astrologers in India.
What is Vikaram Samvat?

Samvat is a short form of the Sanskrit word ‘Samvatsar’, literally meaning ‘year’. This system of Hindu calendar was started by King Vikramaditya and hence it is known as “Vikram Samvat”. Vikramaditya was the king of Ujjain.

Structure of a Hindu calendar

The structure of a Hindu calendar is very interesting. The lifetime of the universe is known as “Kalpa” which is further segmented into period units known as “Manavantra”. Now, each Manavantra have various set of four yugas, namely Kretha Yuga, Thretha Yuga, Dwapara Yuga and Kali Yuga. The present era is known as “Kali yuga”.  Each yuga further comprises of a number of years or “Samvatsars”. Samvastar is also a time period in which the planet Jupitar moves through one sign with its average speed.

The four Yugas
Following is the number of years constituted by each Yuga –

Name of the Yuga   Number of calendar years

Kretha Yuga        17,28,000

Thretha Yuga      12,96,000

Dwapara Yuga      8,64,000

Kali Yuga              4,32,000

The numbers in the Hindu system are based on the Shaka System. And the numbers in the Shaka system are the variables which depend on the first year in which the Shaka was started by an emperor. But irrespective of fact to which Shaka the year belongs, the names of the year always remain the same. Since Samvatsar is the yearly movement of Jupiter within one zodiac, it might be at a varying distance from Earth at times. So, while transiting in the zodiac, it is under different celestial influences during a cycle of sixty years.

हिन्दू धर्म में मान्यता है कि शरीर नष्ट हो जाने के बाद भी आत्मा अजर-अमर रहती है। वह अपने कार्यों के भोग भोगने के लिए नाना प्रकार की योनियों में विचरण करती है। शास्त्रों में मृत्योपरांत मनुष्य की अवस्था भेद से उसके कल्याण के लिए समय-समय पर किए जाने वाले कृत्यों का निरूपण हुआ है। सामान्यत: जीवन में पाप और पुण्य दोनों होते हैं। हिन्दू मान्यता के अनुसार पुण्य का फल स्वर्ग और पाप का फल नर्क होता है। नर्क में जीवात्मा को बहुत यातनाएं भोगनी पड़ती हैं। पुण्यात्मा मनुष्य योनि तथा देवयोनि को प्राप्त करती है। इन योनियों के बीच एक योनि और होती है वह है प्रेत योनि। वायु रूप में यह जीवात्मा मनुष्य का मन:शरीर है, जो अपने मोह या द्वेष के कारण इस पृथ्‍वी पर रहता है। पितृ योनि प्रेत योनि से ऊपर है तथा पितृलोक में रहती है। भाद्रपद की पूर्णिमा से आश्विन कृष्ण अमावस्या तक सोलह दिनों तक का समय सोलह श्राद्ध या श्राद्ध पक्ष कहलाता है। शास्त्रों में देवकार्यों से पूर्व पितृ कार्य करने का निर्देश दिया गया है। श्राद्ध से केवल पितृ ही तृप्त नहीं होते अपितु समस्त देवों से लेकर वनस्पतियां तक तृप्त होती हैं।
शास्त्रों में पांच तरह की बलि बताई गई हैं, जिसका श्राद्ध में विशेष महत्व है।
1. गौ बलि
2. श्वान बलि
3. काक बलि
4. देवादि बलि
5. पिपीलिका बलि
यहां बल‍ि से तात्पर्य किसी पशु या पक्षी की हत्या से नहीं है, बल्कि श्राद्ध के दिन जो भोजन बनाया जाता है। उसमें से इनको भी खिलाना चाहिए। इसे ही बलि कहा जाता है।
* सौभाग्यवती स्त्री का श्राद्ध नवमी के दिन किया जाता है।
* यदि कोई व्यक्ति संन्यासी है तो उसका श्राद्ध द्वादशी के दिन किया जाता है।
* शस्त्राघात या किसी अन्य दुर्घटना में मारे गए व्यक्ति का श्राद्ध चतुर्दशी के दिन किया जाता है।
* यदि हमें अपने किसी पूर्वज के निधन की तिथि नहीं मालूम हो तो उनका श्राद्ध अमावस्या के दिन किया जाता है। इसीलिए इसे सर्वपितृ अमावस्या भी कहा जाता है।
* आश्विन शुक्ल की प्रतिपदा को भी श्राद्ध करने का विधान है। इस दिन दादी और नानी का श्राद्ध किया जाता है।
श्राद्ध के दौरान यह सात चीजें वर्जित मानी गई- दंतधावन, ताम्बूल भक्षण, तेल मर्दन, उपवास, संभोग, औषध पान और परान्न भक्षण।
* श्राद्ध में स्टील के पात्रों का निषेध है।
* श्राद्ध में रंगीन पुष्प को भी निषेध माना गया है।
* गंदा और बासा अन्न, चना, मसूर, गाजर, लौकी, कुम्हड़ा, बैंगन, हींग, शलजम, मांस, लहसुन, प्याज, काला नमक, जीरा आदि भी श्राद्ध में निषिद्ध माने गए हैं।
* संकल्प लेकर ब्राह्मण भोजन कराएं या सीधा इत्यादि दें। ब्राह्मण को दक्षिणा अवश्य दें।
* भोजन कैसा है, यह न पूछें।
* ब्राह्मण को भी भोजन की प्रशंसा नहीं करनी चाहिए।
* सीधा पूरे परिवार के हिसाब से दें।
इस प्रकार आप पितरों को प्रसन्न कर उनका आशीर्वाद लेकर अपने कष्ट दूर कर सकते हैं। यूं भी यह व्यक्ति का कर्तव्य है, जिसे पूर्ण कर पूरे परिवार को सुखी एवं ऐश्वर्यवान बना सकते हैं। इस बात का विशेष ध्यान रखें कि श्राद्ध करते समय संकल्प अवश्य लें.....


India, a country known for its traditional values and healthy culture. And it really does have that potential goodness. but last few years we are loosing the identity, of our values, culture and healthy environment. 

In recent years we have grown a lot, thanks to Westernization(Globalization) . we developed incredibly and we became one of most influencing country. we have now MNC's tall buildings and lot of population looking for a great opportunity (we have the largest population of Young adults) 
But despite of these we have lost our values. before you get it in wrong way as an another Article of Westernization , let me furnish it further. we have grown but our our mind isn't. we have tall buildings as in western countries but the shortest/ narrow minded people. we got their culture but didn't got their values. 
so now we are "Sick Minded INDO-WESTERN Indians" . 
we adopted what they wear and how fascinating their living standard is. But we couldn't have the mentality to live in that world. 
from edible to to the culture we adopted all but we always neglected what the goodness behind them. our morning start with suit boot , and end up with two pegs at night. is this all western culture? There is every citizen's contribution in building nation. 


I am always against the protest of westernization, but what we are adopting? if a boy/man roam with a girl, i need to say what people think. seriously we haven't grown up, we are the sicken of show offs, negativity. we need to reassess our moral values with western culture. if we are adopting them we need to grow up with their mentality. they have lot more goodness than what we had adopted. They are developed countries in every mean. 
India Celebrates its New year (2070) on First day of Chaitra (Hindu lunar Calender) which is on 11th April 2013  this year.

Happy Indian New year

चैत्र ही एक ऐसा माह है जिसमें वृक्ष तथा लताएं पल्लवित व पुष्पित होती हैं। इसी मास में उन्हें वास्तविक मधुरस पर्याप्त मात्रा में मिलता है। वैशाख मास, जिसे माधव कहा गया है, में मधुरस का परिणाम मात्र मिलता है। इसी कारण प्रथम श्रेय चैत्र को ही मिला और वर्षारंभ के लिए यही उचित समझा गया।

जितने भी धर्म कार्य होते हैं, उनमें सूर्य के अलावा चंद्रमा का भी महत्वपूर्ण स्थान है। जीवन का जो मुख्य आधार अर्थात वनस्पतियां हैं, उन्हें सोम रस चंद्रमा ही प्रदान करता है। इसीलिए इसे औषधियों और वनस्पतियों का राजा कहा गया है।

शुक्ल प्रतिपदा के दिन ही चंद्र की कला का प्रथम दिवस है। अतः इसे छोड़कर किसी अन्य दिवस को वर्षारंभ मानना उचित नहीं है।

संवत्सर शुक्ल से ही आरंभ माना जाता है, क्योंकि कृष्ण के आरंभ में मलमास आने की संभावना रहती है जबकि शुक्ल में नहीं।

ब्रह्माजी ने जब सृष्टि का निर्माण किया था तब इस तिथि को 'प्रवरा' (सर्वोत्तम) माना था। इसलिए भी इसका महत्व ज्यादा है।

भगवान राम जब अयोध्या लौट कर आये थे,
यदि उस समय हमारी मिडिया रही होती तो 
प्रेसकांफ्रेंस में कैसे कैसे सवाल करती.....

१ -आपके टीम के श्री हनुमान को लंका सन्देश देने भेजा था पर उन्होंने वहाँ आग लगा दी.... क्या आपकी टीम में अंदरूनी तौर
पर वैचारिक मतभेद है?

२ - क्या हनुमान के ऊपर अशोक वाटिका उजाड़ने के आरोप में वन विभाग द्वारा मुकदमा नहीं चलाया जाना चाहिए?

३ - आपके सहयोगी श्री सुग्रीव पर अपने भाई का राज्य हड़पने का आरोप है|....क्या आपने इसकी जांच करवाई?

४ - क्या ये सच है कि सुग्रीव की राज्य हड़पने की साजिश के मास्टर माइंड आप है?

५ - आप चौदह साल तक वनवास में रहे...आपको अपने खर्चे चलाने के लिए फंड कहाँ से मिले?

६ - क्या आपने उस फंड का ऑडिट करवाया है?

७ - आपने सिर्फ रावण पर हमला क्यों किया, जबकि राक्षस और भी थे? क्या ये लंका की डेमोक्रेसी को अस्थिर करने
की साजिश थी?

८ - क्या ये सच नहीं है कि रावण को परेशान करने के मकसद से आपने उनके परिवार के निर्दोष लोगो जैसे कुम्भकरण पर
हमला किया?

९ - क्या आपकी टीम के हनुमान द्वारा संजीवनी बूटी की जगह पूरा पहाड उखाड़ लेना सरकारी जमीन के साथ छेड़छाड़
नहीं?

१० - क्या ये सच नहीं कि आपने हमले से पहले समुद्र पर पुल बनाने का ठेका अपने करीबी नल और नील को नहीं दिया?

११ - आपने पुल बनाने के लिए छोटी छोटी गिलहरियों से काम करवाया..... क्या इसके लिए आप पर बाल श्रम कानून के तहत
मुकदमा नहीं चलाया जाना चाहिए?

१२ - आपने बिना किसी पद पर रहते हुए युद्ध के समय इन्द्र से सहायता प्राप्त की और उनका रथ लेकर रावण पर हमला किया..
क्या आप इन्द्र की टीम ए है?

१३ - इस सहायता के बदले में क्या आपने इन्द्र को ये वादा नहीं किया कि अयोध्या का राजा बनने के बाद आप उन्हें अयोध्या के आस पास की जमीन दे देंगे?

१४ - आप युद्ध में अयोध्या से रथ न मंगवा कर इन्द्र से रथ लिया.... क्या ये इन्द्र की कंपनी को लाभ पहुंचाने के उद्देश्य से
किया गया?
They call us the Citizen of INDIA

when we talk of black money and corruption
then for them we are anti-nation

everyday they imposing a new named tax
no one is worried by report of the CAG's
they say they are taking all the taxes for the development of nation
TOLL plaza's are with in every few meters, running life time duration

Free education is just for fun
its like eating year old bun

its true Govt cant to everything, but the dose they gave us at the time of Independence is still running in our vein.
the so called nation's father family and a peoples party just looting the country for personal sake, with the help of regional terror.
they never produced a country man, everywhere is a regional biased, NAXALs, ULFA naming a few.

“Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.”

“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
a superb inspiring Quote by late Albert Einstein.

Even though according to astrology, the date of birth as per the Hindu lunar calendar is inauspicious, it is still advisable to celebrate it on that day as the benefits derived are more than if celebrated on the date of birth according to the Western calendar. - Compiler: We advise that the birthday should be celebrated as per the Hindu lunar calendar.


However astrology says ‘No auspicious action should be performed on the date that one is born because that day is inauspicious. So what stand should be adopted?
A Scholar: The implied meaning of the word ‘inauspicious’ in this context is different. The attributes of the embodied soul born on that particular day match with the frequencies present on that date as per the Hindu lunar calendar (‘tithi’). The sorcerers with their prowess to do black magic, can make a replica of an embodied soul and can cause distress upto 70%. Thus this day is considered ‘inauspicious’ due to the probability of suffering which could be maximum  on that date.
In ‘Kaliyug’ this is an excellent example of the misconceptions harboured by people. On this day the probability of harm is more means that, chances of obstacles in any auspicious task is high so the misconception that was formed was that one cannot perform any holy ritual for the embodied soul on this date of the Hindu lunar calendar.  On the contrary, when celebrating the birthday on this date, through the ritual of ‘aukshan’ and a prayer made unto the family deity, the chaitanya generated helps the embodied soul to combat the distressing energy attacks at various levels. Thus, there is no rule that one must not perform any ritual on this day and the statement from astrology is baseless.’- (Through the medium of Mrs. Anjali Gadgil, 4th March 2006, 7.17 p.m.)
Blessings and good wishes endow maximum benefit: ‘The frequencies of the date of birth according to the Hindu lunar calendar match the individual maximally.Since the blessings and good wishes of relatives and well-wishers bring maximum benefit to the individual celebrating the birthday as per the Hindu lunar calendar is more beneficial.
One develops the strength to combat obstacles in life: Since the frequencies in the universe on the birthday as per the Hindu lunar calendar match the temperament of the person born on that date, the ‘sattvik’ and chaitanya-enriched rituals done by an individual on that day leave a deep impression on his subconscious mind. As a result, he derives spiritual prowess to combat problems in his future life.’- A Scholar (Through the medium of Mrs. Anjali Gadgil, 21st January 2005, 9.11p.m. and 28th August 2005, 11.40a.m.)
Benefits of celebrating a birthday as per the Hindu lunar calendar (‘tithi’) as against the date of birth as per the Western calendar

 Traditional Hindu Birthday Celebration – How do Hindus Celebrate Birthday?

Janam Dhin, Birthday, is celebrated in a unique way in Hinduism. In Hindu religion, the Hindi Tithi or the Nakshatra or Nallu is chosen to celebrate the birthday. The annual birthday celebration is not on a fixed date as in the English Calendar. Hindus give importance to the Tithi and in some regions it is based on the 27 Nakshatras. There is also a debate whether it is right to light candles on a cake and then blow it off on birthdays in Hindu tradition. Feeding the poor is an important part of Hindu birthday celebrations.

Visiting the temple on birthday and performing Ganesh Puja is considered highly auspicious. Other important pujas performed on birthday include pujas to Shiva, Rudra Abhishek, Navgraha Puja and pujas to ‘Ishta Devta’ or personal deity. Blessings of parents, especially that of Mother is very important on birthday.

Now, if the person believes in astrology, then depending on the position of the grahas etc there will be other pujas that will be needed to be performed on the birthday. For this the person will need the help of a learned Pandit or Poojari or astrologer.

In Hindu Tradition, lighting a lamp is considered highly auspicious and this is done daily by majority of Hindus at home. So there is a debate whether it is right to blow off the candles on a birthday cake. Traditionalists are strictly against this but liberals, who are in majority, nowadays celebrate birthday in this manner.

Even those Hindus who celebrate birthday by cutting cake, visit temples first and perform pujas. So a person should be given the freedom to celebrate his/her birthday the manner which he/she wants.

It must be remembered here that there are several Hindus who celebrate their birthday with children in orphanages or with elders in old age homes. It is also a Hindu tradition to feed the poor on a person’s Janam Dhin. Perhaps this is one tradition which we should maintain on all our birthdays
Rockstar has honesty and depth, which is mostly missing in Hindi movies today.

before proceed on other aspects lets talk about the man who is extraordinary and proves himself one of the best director in GEN-NEXT .

Imtiaz Ali has been able to extract mind blowing performance from all actors, especially Ranbir Kapoor. Ranbir has proved once again that he is an awesome actor. Ranbir has been able to pull off the role with aplomb. He will be remembered always for his extraordinary performance in Rockstar. 






IMTIAZ ALI 
 
after directing some daily soap on small screen he move to Bollywood with SOCHA NA THA in 2005.
directed four movies with Eight stars and was there one of finest performance of their career.
Abhay deol and Ayesha takia in Socha na tha [2005]
Shahid kappor and Kareena kapoor in Jab we met [2007] [ directed and written by IA ]
Saif ali khan and Deepika padukone in  "Love aaj kal"  [2009]

and now he is continuing the same with ROCKSTAR. Ranbir kappor's never forgettable character JORDAN [ Janardan Jakhad] . surely one of the best performance this year.




Rockstar Review: Star Performances 

Ranbir Kapoor does an extraordinary job. His acting is excellent and it wouldn’t be incorrect to say that he has lived the role of Janardhan/Jordan. He has played the simpleton, the passionate lover, and the rockstar with aplomb. His is indeed an award-winning performance and one which takes him to the next level. From his innocence in the opening reels to his arrogance in the climax, Ranbir breathes life into Jordan and keeps you riveted. Whether he adlibs his songs, gives a dance-tribute to Shammi Kapoor or dictates the concert crowd,  Ranbir gives cent percent to his character. 



 

Nargis Fakhri makes a very promising debut. She looks pretty and does an confident job [taking the fact that before this movies she doesn't even know a single word of Hindi or Bollywood and even superstar Amitabh bachchcan [extracts of her own words]  . She would qualify for awards for the best debut. 

Rockstar Review: Direction & Music

Imtiaz Ali’s direction is just superb in single word. But his narrative style is of a kind which will be loved by the youth, liked by the elite and not appreciated too much by the audience of the single-screen cinemas and small centers.  
A.R. Rahman’s music comprises some hit numbers and some which are not too easy on the lips but many of them are very appealing songs.
 Irshad Kamil’s lyrics are rich and wonderful. 
Anil Mehta’s cinematography is extraordinary. one of the strong fact to watch Rockstar. 
Editing, by Aarti Bajaj, is very different in style from what one is used to seeing. 
Production values are grand.

ऐ मेरे वतन के लोगों
तुम खूब लगा लो नारा
ये शुभ दिन है हम सब का
लहरा लो तिरंगा प्यारा
पर मत भूलो सीमा पर
वीरों ने है प्राण गँवाए
कुछ याद उन्हें भी कर लो -२
जो लौट के घर न आये -२
जय हिन्द के जवान ! वंदे मातरम
ऐ मेरे वतन के लोगों
ज़रा आँख में भर लो पानी
जो शहीद हुए हैं उनकी
ज़रा याद करो क़ुरबानी
जब घायल हुआ हिमालय
खतरे में पड़ी आज़ादी
जब तक थी साँस लड़े वो
फिर अपनी लाश बिछा दी
संगीन पे धर कर माथा
सो गये अमर बलिदानी
जो शहीद...
जब देश में थी दीवाली
वो खेल रहे थे होली
जब हम बैठे थे घरों में
वो झेल रहे थे गोली
थे धन्य जवान वो आपने
थी धन्य वो उनकी जवानी
जो शहीद...
कोई सिख कोई जाट मराठा
कोई गुरखा कोई मदरासी
सरहद पर मरनेवाला
हर वीर था भारतवासी
जो खून गिरा पर्वअत पर
वो खून था हिंदुस्तानी
जो शहीद...
थी खून से लथ-पथ काया
फिर भी बन्दूक उठाके
दस-दस को एक ने मारा
फिर गिर गये होश गँवा के
जब अन्त-समय आया तो
कह गये के अब मरते हैं
खुश रहना देश के प्यारों
अब हम तो सफ़र करते हैं
क्या लोग थे वो दीवाने
क्या लोग थे वो अभिमानी
जो शहीद...
तुम भूल न जाओ उनको
इस लिये कही ये कहानी
जो शहीद...
जय हिन्द... जय हिन्द की सेना -२
जय हिन्द, जय हिन्द, जय हिन्द
तिरंगा

please stand for the Indian national anthem

ENgliSh tranSlations

Girl: will our voices reach them?

Boy: If you speak from your heart it definitely will.

Jo rehta tha ab tak ragon mein woh tha paani
What was flowing through my veins till now was water
Lahoo mera aaj mil gaya
Now blood has started to flow
Ruaan ruaan mera aaj khil gaya
Every part of me has blossomed
Dhadakta, bhadakta, machalta, tehelta, nikalta…
Throbbing, beating, skipping, strolling, it flows out
Ankhon se, sanson se, dhadkan ki sargam ko gaata ho
From my eyes, my breath, from every beat of my heart, it sings
Zinda hua hai man mera, liya jo naam tera
My heart has come alive ever since I spoke your name
Ooh aah India, aaya India (2)
India has arrived!

Bachpan se soya hua tha, haan
I’ve been asleep/unawakened since childhood
Ab main jaaga…
Now I’ve awakened
Ghoom raha tha dhoop mein ab ghar ko aaya
I was aimlessly wandering in the heat, now I’ve come home
Aavaaz jo suni, thami si zameen saath chal padi chala jo apna caravan
On hearing the sound, the earth stopped, then moved with me
Khili har kali, machi khalbali, subah jo hui, neend se jaaga aasmaan
Every bud bloomed, there was commotion in the air, once morning dawned and the sky awakened from sleep
Zinda hua hai man mera, liya jo naam tera
Ooh aah India, aaya India (2)

Tere teen rangon ka anchal maine odh liya
I wear a cloak of your three colors
Teri mitti ki khushboo hi sahi ma teri yaad aa gayi
The scent of your soil reminds me of you, oh mother (land)
I’m saying, I’m praying, jazbon ke lavson mein tu beh ja
I’m saying, I’m praying that you flow in my emotions
I’m singing this feeling, nas nas mein, tu reh ja
I’m singing this feeling, reside in every part of me
Mantra ek hua, granth ek hua, tera Allah mera hua
Chants, religions became one, your Allah became mine
Bhaasha ek hui, laksh ek hua liya jo naam tera
Languages, goals became one, once your name was spoken
Zinda hua hai man mera, liya jo naam tera
Ooh aah India, aaya India (2)

Jud gaya Bharat mera
My India is united
Liya jo naam tera
Ever since your name was spoken
