Methods to naturally cure the Tooth decay

Oil pulling. A staple healing practice in Ayurvedic medicine, oil pulling is one of the best ways to encourage a bright smile and happy gums. Simply swish one tablespoon of oil (sesame or coconut) around the mouth and through the teeth for up to 20 minutes. Discard the oil (never swallow) and immediately rinse mouth with warm water. Lastly, brush your teeth as normal. Proponents of the method swear by the health benefits -- from a reduction in headaches and seasonal illness to a decrease in tooth caries and gingivitis.

Remineralizing toothpaste. Another tooth- and gum-friendly habit is found by brushing with a mineral-rich toothpaste. Using antifungal coconut oil, pH-balancing baking soda, bacteria-blasting essential oils and tooth-fortifying trace minerals, 

Sprout and ferment. According to numerous studies -- and the work of Weston A. Price -- phytic acid (found in beans, grains, nuts and seeds) can be problematic for tooth enamel. This troublesome compound not only blocks absorption but also leeches minerals from the teeth, bones and body. To circumvent the issue, soaking, sprouting and fermenting assists in partially deactivating phytic acid.

Diet. Don't overlook the power of food to keep teeth and gums strong. A diet rich in vitamins A, C, D, E and K, as well as minerals like magnesium, calcium and phosphorus, will lay a foundation for robust dental health.Focus on dark leafy greens, pastured organic meats and eggs, raw and grass-fed dairy, fermented cod liver oil and fatty fish like sardines and salmon. Avoid sugary, carbohydrate-laden foods which encourage bacterial growth, tooth decay and gum disease. Good alternatives to harmful sweeteners include stevia extract and xylitol -- the latter is known as a potent defense against tooth-destroying oral bacteria.
Essential oils. To keep gums healthy and disease-free, essential oils of tea tree, clove and manuka are hard to beat. Exceptionally effective against bacteria and fungus found within the mouth, these oils help disinfect tooth surfaces and the gum line while freshening the breath. Simply add a drop to your toothpaste and brush as usual. Although not considered an essential oil, many have had success in tightening loose teeth and reducing gum disease with emu oil. A drop or two applied with your toothbrush (twice per day) is recommended.

First trust in yourself

A person will never trust other unless he trust in self. First be a believer to become an achiever later. Building trust takes much time and only few seconds for mistrust to destroy any relationship; personal or official.

Take Risks

If you win, you will be happy.
If you lose, you will be wise.

That is the twin benefits of taking risk in our life.

But certain risks are not worth considering as they spoil you.
Take smoking for instance. It injures both the smoker and the environment.
That's why the adage " A cigarette is a thing with fire at one end , fool at the other."

A calm sea does not make a skilled sailor.
It's hard to beat a person who never gives up.

Laughter is the best medicine

Laughter is the slaughter of the worries in you.

Smiling shows the mild enjoyment of a situation,but does not mean the emotion from the heart. It's a facial expression and arises from the brain.

Laughter alone emerges from and stirs up the whole body. That's why it is commonly said as " Laughter makes you healthy". Because, after the wholesome exercise of laughing, your body exhausts energy that leads to the appetite and sound sleep.

Therefore, laugh your way to wholesome life.

Beautiful Soul

A fair face may fade over a period of time but a beautiful soul lasts forever.

A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.

Life is so much simpler and easier when you live honestly.
Life is like a ladder , the higher you climb, the more expansive is your view.

Life is like a game of tennis; the player who serves well seldom loses.

Essence of Life

A day without sunshine is like night.
Similarly, life without any work or action is empty and meaningless.

Knowing without doing anything  is like ploughing without sowing.

Keep eyes on many but thoughts on one. While driving, this is followed.

Life is optional

The only thing you have to do is breathe: Everything else is optional only.

No individual raindrop ever considers itself responsible for the flood.
Life just gives you time and space. It's upto you fill it properly.

Look at life through the windshield , not the rear-view mirror.

Beware of These foods having cancer potential

Processed meats and foods

Hot dogs, lunch meats and other processed foods are full of chemicals and preservatives that are added to prolong shelf life. These additives not only cause the foods to be toxic, they also destroy what little nutritive value they contain.

GMOs

GMOs, genetically modified organisms, are foods that have been altered genetically to produce more or grow faster than their natural counterparts. The problem with foods that are genetically altered at a cellular level is that even though they are technically the same, they will not react the same once they enter the human body. They will not have the exact same level of nutrition or grow in the same way, as their natural family members. Much like cloning, the food may look, smell and taste the same, but alterations can cause mutations within the cells that scientists have not accounted for.

Non-organic foods

Non-organic foods are those that are grown with the use of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. Fruits and vegetables that are repeatedly treated with these chemicals absorb them through their skin or peels. Once the chemicals are inside the food, they cannot be washed away.Therefore, are digested as the become part of our dinner fare. The majority of these chemicals are toxic and, when ingested, can dramatically increase a person's risk of developing various types of cancer.

Charred foods

Charred foods do not necessarily increase a person's risk of contracting cancer. The charred or burnt areas of the food are the main cause of the increase. Charring causes carcinogens to be formed during the cooking process. Consuming portions that are burnt or charred is what increases a person's overall risk. If a piece of food becomes burnt, just cutting away the charred area will substantially reduce the person's risk.

Artificial sweeteners and flavorings

Several artificial sweeteners and flavorings have been proven to increase a person's risk of cancer. Aspartame, Splenda and saccharine are currently being closely monitored to determine if their chemical makeup is responsible for increasing a consumer's risk of developing different types of cancers.

Thirukkural, Wisdom of Thiruvalluvar

Thirukkural, meaning 'Sacred couplets,' is a Tamil Classic written by Saint Thiruvalluvar. The author is said to have lived sometime between the 1st century BC and the 8th century AD. It's the only literature translated into many of the world languages. The verses hold a treasure of principles and information that can be applied for any occasions, fields and times, irrespective of religion and race.

Thirukkural has three main sections as Righteousness, Resources or Wealth, and Love and Happiness. Under the above three categories, 1330 couplets have been arranged serially into 133 chapters of ten each. The essence of fifteen vital verses is given here to highlight the relevance to modern times also.
  1. People seeking God's blessings, get over the life-cycle. Others never do. Man cannot take pride in his self but appreciates the omniscient and omnipresent Almighty. Without Him, it is impossible to lead a happy life. (Verse 10 in chapter 'Praise of God')
  1. World becomes void without water. Only Rain determines it's peace and prosperity. Drought, famine and scarcity render the life difficult and chaotic. Hence, Saving rainwater is the action desired. (Verse 20 in chapter ' Rain's importance')
  1. Action with a pure mind is virtuosity. Else, has no value. Any work done with bad and hidden intentions will boomerang on the doer. (Verse 34 in Chapter 'Value of Integrity')
4. Love and honesty are two virtues. Without them, life is meaningless. (Verse 45 in Chapter ' Family life')
  1. Speaking harshly instead of using pleasant words is akin to preferring an unripe for the fruit. A person who is gritty, but soft-spoken always commands respect and value. (Verse 100 in Chapter ' Pleasant utterance')
  1. Forgetting others' assistance is pardonable, but not the timely help received from them. One should never forget any help provided during the exigencies, even if repaying is impossible. (Verse 110 in Chapter ' Gratitude')
  1. Humbleness makes nobleness, while pride fends distress and enmity. One should remain simple and kind to all, irrespective of the status and age. Learned people remain gracious and calm in all circumstances. (Verse 121 in chapter 'Humility')
  1. Annihilation of Desire, Anger and Ignorance makes life happy. These three attributes cause hardship and troubles in our life. (Verse 360 in chapter ' Realising Truth')
  1. The level of knowledge varies with the number of books read. It is akin to getting more water depending on the depth a well is dug. Keep reading more and more through the entire life to gain wisdom. (Verse 396 in chapter ' Education')
  1. Time-conscious people rule the world. Appreciate the value of time and opportunity to take action. Successful persons never hasten, but wait for the right time and place. (Verse 485 in chapter ' Time Awareness')
  1. Decide anything based on pros and cons. Ascertain the benefits and harm of anything, and determine, based on the more of them. People who can foresee the good and bad effects are the right people for an excellent administration. (Verse 511 in chapter 'Selective Decision')
  1. Positivism or positive mind is the greatest asset; all others disappear later. A person with such attitude takes advantage of any situation and remains cheerful. Gloom surfaces in each opportunity to a pessimist. (Verse 592 in chapter ' Positive Attitude')
  1. Efforts end in greatness. Laziness ruins the wealth. Persistent attempts make you experienced and resourceful. Lethargy lands in misery and disrespect. (Verse 616 in chapter ' Power of Action')
  1. Like hands swiftly moving to prevent our falling dress, Good friendship extends a helping-hand during difficult times. Such friends are countable and called as thick and close pals. (Verse 788 in chapter ' Friendship')
  2.  Correct diagnosis followed by proper treatment with the right drugs suitable for the patient is the best medical practice. (Verse 948 in chapter ' Medicine')

A translated version cannot match the original work. One should learn the language in which the literature is written, to admire and understand the classic like Thirukkural.


You can get the full volume of this marvelous classic as a Translation with Commentary by Rev Dr G U. Pope and two others at http://www.projectmadurai.org/pmetexts/pdf/pm0153.pdf

Life is a Mission

Make your life a mission , not an intermission.

Many people don't believe in hard work and persistence. Instead, they prefer casualness and lethargy to suit their convenience without minding the long term impact on their life itself. Any hiccups or hurdles faced during a mission are viewed as a failure, but not taken as a challenge to their skill or experience. 

However, this doesn't mean getting worried and burdened at the cost of the personal happiness and relationships in the society.

Set personal goals and start moving towards them; with all sincerity and determination. Side by side, have the habit of enjoying whatever is required of that age or stage. For instance, a school kid should have a clear target of what to do in his studies, and keep doing that. At the same time, he should enjoy  the fun of that age like playing, watching movies, etc..

Correct your mistakes

The real fault is to have faults and not amend them.
No matter how far you have gone on a wrong road, turn back.

Instead of our advance worrying, develop the habits of advance thinking and planning.
Perseverance should be the engine fuelled by your hope.

Early signs of Cancer

When it comes to cancer, no one wants to be caught off guard with its diagnosis. Unfortunately, many people are initially surprised when they hear that they have the signs of a particular type of cancer only to later realize that the signs had been there for quite some time. Because early detection is often the key to a better prognosis, it is imperative that the following early warning signs of cancer not be ignored.

Increased fatigue
While some fatigue can be considered almost normal given today's busy schedules, if a person suddenly finds that they must take a long nap in order to accomplish their responsibilities, it is cause for concern.

Low-grade fever that lasts
A low-grade fever -- typically classified as a body temperature between 99.8 and 100.8 degrees Fahrenheit -- can be a sign of a number of infections. In addition, it can also be a sign of cancers such as Hodgkin's disease, leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Because it could be the first sign of such cancer, it is important to get a recurring low-grade fever checked out.

Problems of swallowing and chronic sores
In addition to having problems swallowing, other disturbing signs that should not be ignored include lip sores that do not heal within the normal time parameters, a sore throat that does not go away or that recurs, persistent hoarseness that does not go away or that comes back, bleeding that is unusual or unexplained mouth pain.

Weight loss that cannot be explained
While in normal circumstances losing weight would be a welcome sight, if an individual finds themselves suddenly losing weight without trying to diet, exercise more or perform other lifestyle changes, it could be due to cancer.

What is Ebola.....a health issue.

Ebola is a gruesome disease that causes cells in the body to self-destruct, resulting in massive internal and external bleeding. In its late stages, Ebola can cause the victim to experience convulsions, vomiting and bleeding from the eyes and ears while convulsing, flinging blood all over the room and anyone standing nearby, thereby infecting those people as well. This gruesome ending is the reason Ebola spreads so effectively. The virus "weaponizes" the blood, then causes the victim to fling it around on everyone else almost like you might see depicted in some horror zombie flick.

"Haemorrhaging symptoms begin 4 - 5 days after onset, which includes hemorrhagic conjunctivitis, pharyngitis, bleeding gums, oral/lip ulceration, hematemesis, melena, hematuria, epistaxis, and vaginal bleeding," reports the Pathogen Safety Data Sheet from the Public Health Agency of Canada. (8) That same publication also explains, "There are no known antiviral treatments available for human infections."

Read that again: There are NO KNOWN TREATMENTS for human infections.

Inhuman ways of Hospital

This is the world of money-hunger. Private hospitals , not all, tend to make medical service as their source of profit at the cost of the patients inability .

Recently High court of Bombay, India condemned the practice of many hospitals detaining patients till their dues are paid . It's highly deplorable that medical institution supposed to render service are behaving in such inhuman manner.

Personally, I had a bitter experience a few years ago when I visited one of the reputed hospitals in Chennai, India . My cousin was getting the treatment for cancer and after some days, he died. When his sons made all efforts to get the corpse out of the hospital for final rites, the hospital refused for the simple reason " the entire bill amount was not paid." That too, the hospital demanded cash payment instead of the insurance cover tendered for this purpose.

So be careful when you deal with big names ,,,,in any place or profession or business.

Blizarre reasons of Flight landing

A flight schedule getting cancelled or delayed for technical reasons in the machine are familiar to us. Do you know due to what other strange factors, a air- trip gets affected?

Water on the plane - A Melbourne bound flight from Los Angeles had to return to the US about an hour after takeoff due to a burst water pipe. The passengers shared pics of the flooded cabin.

Croc on board - Smugglers adopt novel ways of carrying their merchandise. In 2010, a crocodile was found playing the menace to the passengers. The stampede that following this had resulted in flight losing the balance and crashed in Democratic of Congo killing 19 passengers and crew. The only survivor shared this news.

Adamant Bees - Over 10000 bees swarmed one wing of a plane and delaying the take off for about 20 minutes until a beekeeper landed to remove them.

Pilot's death -  One pilot simply kneeled over and died inside the cockpit. However, the copilot took over and landed the plane safely in the next stop. Then only he politely announced to the passengers with a request " Can I ask you to remain in your seats for a few minutes, as your pilot died a few hours ago and we have to remove the body before we can allow you to disembark. Thank you for your patience, and have a nice day.

Dog poo- the pet dog of a passenger urinated repeatedly on the cabin making the journey uncomfortable for the passengers. So, the flight had to do emergency landing as the crew exhausted all it's logistics to clean the poo.

Amma brand of service

Amma means  Mom, Mother, Mummy.....add your own words of your language or dialect.

But in Tamilnadu, India, this syllable means the popular eatery "Amma Canteen" .
Even it has become a brand attracting people from poorer sections. Because you can buy the breakfast ( idly, pongal) at nominal price. Even curd rice, chappathi are sold for the lunch to make the poor people dine twice a day. Square meal , indeed!!

The canteen is a boon for people from low income groups. 

The canteens are growing in numbers every month due to the good management and intention.

Even other Indian states and foreign nation Egypt evinced interest in the Amma model of nutrition that delegates visited the stalls and kitchens of Amma canteen to study and implement the same in their places.

Anything for welfare will be appreciated.  Regardless of creed, religion and region.

How to protect yourslelf in the event of a Nuclear accident or war?

Cesium Eliminator is the next "Must-Have" precautionary item.

In anticipation of more nuclear accidents (or even war), many people have already stocked up on potassium iodide or nascent iodine, two different supplements that help protect the thyroid from radiation.

That's a smart strategy, but it's not enough: iodine does nothing to protect from the ionizing radiation of cesium-137, a far more dangerous isotope that quickly contaminates food and water supplies in the event of nuclear fallout.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says, "Cesium-137 that is dispersed in the environment, like that from atmospheric testing, is impossible to avoid... People may ingest cesium-137 with food and water, or may inhale it as dust. Like all radionuclides, exposure to radiation from cesium-137 results in increased risk of cancer."

And the U.S. Centers for Disease Control adds, "Internal exposure to Cs-137, through ingestion or inhalation, allows the radioactive material to be distributed in the soft tissues, especially muscle tissue, exposing these tissues to the beta particles and gamma radiation and increasing cancer risk."

The authorities agree: Cesium-137 is deadly and should be avoided or eliminated at all costs. But until now, no one had conducted the scientific testing necessary to determine what natural substances could "capture" cesium isotopes and help eliminate them from the body.

Cesium Eliminator is the world's first dietary supplement that's scientifically proven to capture radioactive cesium isotopes such as Cesium-137. Click here to see and learn more.

Donate to help others even after your death

If you have the will to help others , you will definitely do it. By leaving a Will for a public cause.

There are many ways to achieve the above purpose.

- create a Trust and donate your estate or money to it . Let the trust provide aids, assistance or free logistics to needy people and for worthwhile causes. This is what many rich people and reputed companies do.

-  contribute  your funds to the educational and social welfare institutions like a Corpus fund . Tell the institutions to pay rewards or scholarships to the poor and needy wards. Many individual philanthropists follow this method as they lack time and people to manage trusts.

-  gift your body organs like eyes, kidneys, heart ...even skin to the organ banks or hospitals . Such institutions will remove the organs upon your death and use them to help those needing badly. Any person can easily adopt this route.

- donating one's body makes you a noble person. One popular and living actor in Tamilnadu has offered  his body to a medical college to enable the students learn the anatomy.

So go for it. Donate whatever is possible. 

Google and register your wish but keep your family informed .

Whose money, any way ?

Many governments want to stay in power by spending huge money for waiving the debts that are owed by farmers, students,etc...  This is a ruse to seek the support of those people forming the majority of vote banks.

But what these so-called power mongers fail to understand are the implications of such populist schemes. Why they should bother any way. After all it's no their money....only the public exchequer to worry.

The after effects of such waivers are
-  drain of valuable resources that would have been otherwise invested in some long term and     productive uses like creation of community assets like water tanks, school buildings and infrastructures such as roads, bridges,etc...
-  strain on the tax payers who are usually burdened with additional and new taxes
-  corruption of minds of the honest repayers to default in future
-   creations of impression that govt will come out with waiver program and no need to repay any loan
- business of banks and financial institutions are affected in the long term due to poor credit culture and risk-aversion of banks to lend more.

Really a bad precedent ...by the law makers . Then how the citizens will abide by the laws passed by them.

Saturday, June 14, 2014

Respect Your Elders

 Everybody including every life form will become elder as they grow older. This is universal law applicable to even the god stepping into the universe through the reincarnation route. 

One survey in India found that elderly citizens face humiliation in many different ways of abuse.

Women among them are reported to be more affected. 
Usual types of abuse are verbal abuse, disrespect and economic exploitation. Not providing food and timely care remain to be the common complaints of abuse. 
Daughter-in-laws constitute the major perpetrators of this abuse. 

There are many people who never visited their elderly parents for years together: not even bothered to know whether they are alive. But they call on the parents when they face financial or physical discomforts. Still worse, some children, aged above 50 years, complain that they wouldn't  mind their elders because the latter is of no use.

June 15 is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.

Better be aware  and respect your elders.

Failure causes Success

Success of today is the fruit borne from the failures of yesterday.
Without failure, success will never be felt. Like happiness felt after sorrows.

Failure becomes meaningful for a genius who possesses patience.
Hastiness without efforts and hard work, nobody can reap success.
Mulberry cannot wish to grow as silk bypassing the work and time of the moth .

So have faith in the persistent efforts and time to taste your success.

NO TOBACCO ! ? ...Forever.

Promise yourself the gift of good health
Promise yourself the gift of good health - May 31st - World No Tobacco Day


Courtesy: ICICI Lombard

Smoking is not only bad for your health, it is deadly! 

One woman in her late thirties had smoked for 10 years. She had tried all methods to quit but the addiction was so strong she was finding it impossible. 


One day , her son told her that he had something very important to tell her.

He looked her right in the face and without wavering said, “I want you to quit smoking because I don’t want you to die. I want a mother in my life.” With that, she walked over to an ashtray, put out her cigarette, and now almost seven years later, she still does not smoke. 

While this will not work for everyone, the next time you pick up a cigarette; take a minute to consider how your child or family would feel if you were no longer around. 

Let us shun tobacco forever except for medicinal value.

Yesterday's enemy is Today's Friend.
Friend today turns out to be your opponent tommorrow.

Family members vote for different political parties.
Family members contest the elections on different parties tickets.

Narendra Modi, present ChiefMinister of Gujarat State, India was once denied visa by US and UK.

But when he has become the prospective Prime Minister , the same governments and administrations have extended bouquetsClassic Sympathy Basket and declared that there is no hiccup for issuing visa now.

Time factor causes the topsy turvy of many things.

Love, Affection, Dedication, Selflessness, Sacrifice.

These are the words that describe a true mother.
Even any person that displays these attributes can be called as a Mother.

The only word universally common to all  and being used to call a mother is "Ma".
Even the animals spell " Ma" only.

So let us appreciate and duplicate the character of a Mom.

Happy Mothers Day.

Who is a Real Friend?

The friends who stand with you during times of turbulence are the real one.
Others actually get you tough times.

How to identify a good friend?

A tough question, indeed.

Time alone tells who is a good friend. Over a period of time, the behaviour of friend will change depending on  several factors like money, place , situations,etc...

Generally good friends will continue the relationship throughout your life. But others will change like seasons of time.

But to get a good friend, you need to be a good friend.

Act well

" It is good to think well. It is divine to act well. "
Many people simply preach rather to practice it. Political leaders belong to this breed. Only by this measure, they all have a common trait.

Some people are better in advising others but they never do. Trade Union leaders, I mean a majority of the, fall under this category.

But some people talk less but work more. This is the crucial segment that creates aand contributes to the society at large. Plumbers, Teachers, Doctors, etc...are example for this.

You can identify your group to which you belong. Think and Act wisely.

Best Investment

No. This is not about Making Big Money with money..

Hardwork is the best investment a man can make. 
A person who recognizes the value of time and hardwork will definitely lauch his dedicated and timebound efforts to reach his goal.

Theres are numerous examples in histiry and contemporary times to amply prove this point.

Even the old saying "Work like a Bull "and "Save like a Ant"go to strenthen this point only.

Just think "how much efforts and starin would have gone into making the above 3D effect of Indain National Flag.

Do Your Best

Do what you can, with what you have and where you are.

Many people tend to feel inadequacy or inability  forgetting what they have or possess in them.

Each person has the greatest asset of Brain to think and act.
Even if there is thought process within, many neglect them for the sole reason they have lesser resources or power to go ahead in executing what cam to their mind.

This is due to the lethargy or the tendency to postpone or procastrinate.
Two hands and two legs are more than enough to prosper in life.

Do's of Insurance


1) Always read the contract notes when received after committing to an insurance cover.Possibilities are there, that even after taking all precautions prior to buying the insurance    product, some exclusions to the risks coverage .

2) Always keep the policy in force by paying the premium regularly.Your claim will be rejected if you have not paid the premium.

3) Always Keep the insurance company informed if you make any changes in the Address, change in the nature and composition of assets covered,etc..This issue crops up in the case of business assets and movable assets like vehicles . When you buy a second hand asset, the risk is more: you have to ensure the title is transferred in your name before taking the insurance.

4) Always buy Life insurance covers from the reputed companies which have a good name in the market .New insurers tend to be inclined towards more business and profit , rather than  the payment of the claims under their policies.

So, Insurance cost  is a Not a Liability but an Investment for Future asset .

BE INSURED FOR  HAPPY LIFE.

Adapt to the Situation

This is the mantra for living a successful life.

This is what Nature surrounding us also teaches.

When the normal prey like fish or worm is not avaiable,  Birds are used to feed on even cooked rice or fruits or cereals. This is what I observed in my place.

When a dog has some digetion problem, it goes on fasting and sometimes, feeds on grass to get the cure for its ailment.

When the tummy is full, a Cow doesn't care to eat a banana.

So better behave accroding to your situation rather than being led by the situation.

Be Proactive

Before you get wet, open your umbrella.

Why many people are so casual and remain till the last moment to take any action.
Either they are easygoing or never bother about their moments in life.

I know one friend who would be making all the hustles in the eleventh hour for his trip to a place. In fact he has beforehand knowledge about his forthcoming trips.

The impact of such casualness and least-bothered approach leads to chaos affecting all those near such person. 

Eventually such people tend to repent only when grave mistakes are made .

Why Insurance required?

Significance of Insurance

Many of us think that taking insurance is a cost and utter waste. But, remember, this cost is very least when you compare the benefits that accrue to you in the event of an unfortunate event .

Moreover, the money spent in insurance contracts  can be a good savings -cum- investment for your life and the family.This arrangement takes care of the welfare of your family.You can make a choice of good plans to cover the basic risks of your living like Life, Health, Home, Vehicles,etc..

For your business or profession, go for the policies that will insure the risks associated with your products, fixtures and fittings like plant and machinery,etc..

What is Insurance?

Risks involved in our life are many. Death is the unbearable and irreparable of all risk.That too  untimely death leaves shock and vacuum in a family. To take care of such unfortunate death or any sort of risk ,   a mechanism is in place to transfer the risk from one place or person to another.

When risks  are managed by self  without transfer to another, they are " Retained Risks"  and they are called as " Transferred Risks " when passed on to another for a consideration or price which is popularly known as "Premium".

As the cost is heavy, an individual cannot bear the risk of others. However, an institution like Cooperative or Firm or Corporate concern can manage them . Cooperative Society for Death relief is an example for managing the expenses arising from death of a member. This is very popular among fishermen folks in Kerala, whose life is at risk when venturing out into the sea.

Types of Insurance

There are basically two types of insurance: life and non-life insurance.

Life type is for compensating the dependants in the event of death of the policy holder. This has two sub categories as 1) pure insurance or term insurance where premium rate will be lower but no returns or refunds made if the person survives after the policy period 2) endowment type ,where death and maturity benefits are combined ,which naturally comes at a higher premium.

Non life products cover the risks like Accident, Marine, Health, Goods, Agricultural crops,Cash-in-transit, etc. The popular Mediclaim policy belongs to Health insurance category.

Apart from these, third type exists as Reinsurance which insures risks like Satellite, Spacecraft, etc...involving huge amounts and also when the sum insured exceeds a threshold limit in a case.

The benefits of insurance will be made fully under all policies  for Life insurance whereas only one insurance amount will be settled in the case of Non-life insurance type. Another difference is the period of cover : one year for non-life  policy renewable every year and longer period for life insurance .

Truth is Bitter. Always.

Plain speaking people are not welcome in the modern world. 
They are branded as Country-bred, Uncivilized, Unfit, Good-for-Nothing,etc..
To call Spade as Spade is not liked by many people.

So, why should we make others consume as such.
We can cloak the Truth in a manner that appeals to the receiver.

Even your own child doesn't like such frank comments nowadays.
Better stop advising anybody in a direct way.

Therefore, Shoot an arrow of truth with honey on its point.

Software rules the Present World

This is the age of Software.

Hardware used to guide the world in good  olden days. The invention of wheel led to the industrialization and automation of many monotonous works in our daily life. 

People who are brainy(doesn't mean higher formal education) enough to manipulate the software programs  are creating history now.
    

Earlier "Hotmail" was acquired by "Micrsoft" for a huge sum.
Now "WhatsApp" going to be taken over 'Facebook" for a whooping $19 billion.

It also resembles  Big Fish swallowing  small ones.

Moral is " Innovation Gets Rewarded"

Face the Problems

Many people feel crest-fallen and totally defeated when even a minor setback is received during their actions. 

Kites rise highest against the wind, and not get swayed by it.

Thomas A Edison could develop a variety of gadgets like Electric bulb that we use now: all these devices were invented after his investing several days of sincere efforts despite facing several flops.

During his childhood, the boy of a poor family had to swim across an ever flowing river to reach the school and again swim to get back to his home. This lad through sheer hard work and determination later became the Prime Minister of India.The name of the boy is Lal Bahadur Shastry.

You may lose a battle here and there, but your commitment to get back up when you fall and improve your strategy will help you achieve a successful outcome.

If You have the Will , You find a Solution or Way.

Take the opportunity now to get back on track.

Online Games

Did you know that one of the most popular things to do online today is play games?  
It’s a fact.  
A recent study, titled “2013 State of Online Gaming Report,” found that 44 percent of the world’s online population are gamers.  And it is estimated that over one BILLION people worldwide play online games on a regular basis–with more than 100 million playing DAILY!

Recently I came across one such game Time Machine .


Time Machine is very simple; just correctly predict the answer to a question that will be answered in the future.  Predict the correct answer and you’ll win (or share in) a Jackpot.
There’s no purchase necessary to play or win.   You can submit up to one new entry (prediction) each day.
If no one predicts the correct answer, Time Machine is reset with a new question added, the Jackpot rolls over–and keeps rolling over–until someone claims the pot!
Interesting...You can also play Click here

Without"Why", there is No Progress

All the progress, development and growth in our world were possible mainly due to the human beings quest for exploring the world.

That quest arose from the basic need to reason out and explain that happens around the humanbeing.

The never-die instinct to find "Why" and question each and everything has led to so much prosperity .

What else, you would explain the invention of wheel, telephone, steam engine, aeroplane and so on.

So, it is amply made clear that Nothing is Impossible if we could think and proceed rationally.

Paucity of ideas

Paucity of ideas or Absence of Mind application - Is the reason behind most of the problems that we face in our life.

When you are held up in a traffic jam on the way to your office, you feel frustrated and start grumbling about the damn traffic management or the apathy of the other people that create chaos on the road due to some agitation or public procession or even the suspension of vehicular movement awaiting a VVIP transit. 

The whole intolerance is out of our late start from our home to attend the office. In the above muddle, we forget to be cool and find any alternative routes to reach the destination.

A cool -headed person tends to pull out his cell phone and inform the office about the traffic arrest and the possible late attendance.

People having presence of mind and sense of tolerance generally succeed in all their endeavors in life.

First Family of Universe

As no system of recording the images was available then, artists have made this picture of the first family of our Universe. 



God Siva, Creator of Universe, is flanked by his wife Parvathi and two sons, Vinayagar alias Ganesha and Murugan.  This is based on the oldest religion of world, Hinduism.

Dream Cash Run

What will be the reaction of the People: when they hear that more cash could be made with an ATM.

A leading and large network bank in India was in shock when one of its ATMs started dispensing  extra cash, almost double the amount keyed in by the ATM users. 

As word spread like wildfire, crowds thronged the kiosk to collect their booty or loot. The machine was giving away INR 10000 against INR5000 requested by the card holder.

The free-for-all  began in the morning and lasted till 10 pm in the night when the bank officials,sensing the depletion of their money,sought the service of police to shut down the ATM.

The cops swiftly cleared the mob,though INR 450000 was withdrawn by that time.

With the help of the camera recordings, the bank is now tracing out and recovering the excess money from those who took the money.

The technical fault " Loading INR1000 in the tray for INR500" is reported to be the cause of the above bizzarae incident.

Symmetry in A Cemetery

All graves are identical and have the details like Name of Soldier,Regiment number and emblem, the emblem of the religion and a personal epitaph.

Madras War (Second World War) Cemetery

This is the uniformity and order being followed by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC  in United Kingdom)  which  commemorates  the 1,700,000 men and women of the Commonwealth forces who died in the two world wars.These cemeteries may have different entrance arches, layouts and pergolas but two things stay the same across the world- the Cross of Sacrifice and Stone Remembrance, both made of Portland cement stone.

Red light area

This phrase was first recorded in the US around 1890.

It is derived from the practice of sex workers placing a red light at the window to indicate to their customers.

The term is also traced to the time when  railroad workers took red lanterns with them when they visited the brothels so their crew could find them in case of emergency.

Japanese police drew a redline on maps to indicate the boundaries of red light areas.

Act of Goodwill

One doctor waived the fees for the cesarian delivery of a girl child by a local lady. Moreover the doctor gave away the medications free of cost. 

The husband of the lady is a poor peon in a local dairy. The expenses were a huge sum for him.

As the child born is girl, the doctor made it free and intended to help the poor parents save the money which in turn could be used for educating the girl.

The parents since deposited the money thus saved in the name of that girl.

This happened in Gujarat state,India where the sex ratio is skewed at 886 girls per 1000 boys.

Sensing the social implications of this phenomenon,  this doctor has been contributing in the manner described herein above.

Well done Dr Prajapati .

Police Job is a Wedding Gift

Wonder,how it could happen.

No fairy tale. Real incident that happened in India.

A scandal in the recruitment of police constables was exposed when a police constable was arrested.
The guy got the job as a marriage gift from the father-in-law who made a deal with the concerned agent to select him. A proxy candidate wrote the written exam for which half a million appeared for 4025 posts.

The sum paid to the agent was about $10000.

World is getting worser day by day: corruption grows geometrically.

Love is Better: Before or After Marriage ?

Love is the loveliest of all human emotions. Because it produces more solace and happiness to all the parties involved. Imagine our world without "LOVE". No purpose in life itself is found .Everything will be in "Chaos".

Love need not be between persons. It can be for anything like Work, Books, Nature, Animals,Solitude,etc..

Love is the common expression and takes different forms depending upon the relationships and status of individuals. 
-  Relationships exist as Parents-Children, Sister-Brother, Husband-Wife, Friends, Colleagues, Teacher-Pupil,etc...
-  Status refers to the stage in which an individual is placed as Childhood, Adolescence, Adult.

However, Love in the modern age is used to represent the affairs that develop before a person's marriage.

In that context, let us examine which is better?     Love, Before or After Marriage

Generally People tend to show much enthusiasm before marriage : reasons can be any. The intensity of such love fades away after the marriage. That is why many people falling under this category end up in divorce or other decisions.

People loving their partner after wedlock  maintains it generally. With some relationships growing sour over time due to Loss of Trust and misunderstanding that emerge due to internal or exterior reasons. People of this category have respect for the family institution.

My view is " Keep Loving Your Partner Always. Give and Take must be the key "









Avoid Procrastination

Procrastination is like a disease that spoils a person’s life .

We all suffer from it at varying degrees throughout our lives and hence, I consider it a disease for the impact it has on lives. 

Lost opportunities, regrets, depression to name a few.

There’s always the feeling that what is due now can be done later and feels better doing later. Kill that thought immediately , prioritize your tasks and get them done without much fuss and rush.

Our habits and thoughts have to be trained  like a bodybuilder or athlete to cultivate the habit of doing continuous work on time. 

When an amazing idea or a cool new thought popped in your mind, don’t put it off, get it done now.
Here also when more than one occurs, jot down them in a piece of paper or smartphone or tablet.

As you go through the motion of putting your plan in action, all sorts of doubts about the idea and your abilities will flow through your mind, ignore them and push on. Ignore the fear of failure as there is no such thing as failure if you keep moving.

Respect All


Now understand....each person is intelligent in their own way...Let's respect everybody..whether small or big...poor or rich, young or old.



This guy is clever to use the helmet for avoiding tears due to the onion  that he cuts.

Each individual or creature in nature has its own mechanism to survive safely in this world.

Funeral Wish..

We know about the history of  Egyptian mummies......so much of life essentials, luxuries,etc...were buried along with the mummies.....inside the great pyramids. Might be to take care of the life after death.

Recently, I read in the daily about two extraordinary funerals.

The body of Bill Stanley, a motorcycle lover, was secured to his 1967 Harley Davidson bike and kept inside a transparent box during funeral procession . This was done to fulfill his wish .


The case of boxer is different. At his funeral, he looked ready to fight , leaning against the corner of a look alike boxing ring.

Weird ...people ..even after being dead.

Facebook

Facebook is into 10th year.

The membership of this social networking site has grown to the extent of the size of a country.
And still growing.....
The chief factors that contributed to this enormous growth are
- easy interface
- quick means of spreading any news, information , pics, etc...
- widest reach

Owing to the above factors, even corporates and businesses have set up their own pages so that their marketing and growth would pick up.

But the main drawback of this medium is that the posts made in the site are derogatory and sensitive in nature. There is no control over this attitude which has led to the situation of some persons committing suicide .

Let us use FB for constructive and informative use only.

Environment & Cancer

World Cancer Day is celebrated on 4th February of every year.

Besides  Heredity and Habits , Environment also plays a crucial role in the spread of cancer.

Use of pesticides and constant inhalation of harmful materials is found to cause the cancer.

Cancer is a condition where our body cells proliferate abnormally. Such condition is induced when we get exposed repeatedly to the chemicals in the fruits and vegetables grown on plants and trees sprayed with pesticides. 

Likewise, the regular exposure  in a place covered with asbestos , saw dust, coal dust, etc...will also trigger the lung and nasopharangeal cancer. The classic example of  Bhopal (India) gas tragedy due to the leak of poisonous gas leak from Union Carbide factory led to the development of cancer in various forms. 

Technology and Development comes at a heavy price: because they add wealth and also trigger new methods of death also.

Just for Airport Meals

A Chinese man bought a first-class fully refundable plane ticket and re-booked it 300 times for the sake of having free meals at the VIP lounge of an airport in China.

Every time the man flashed his ticket to the lounge staff, ate a meal just like any traveller and instead of boarding the flight , he would  change his trip to another day. That day he would show up with his new ticket , enjoy the meals and again change his day of travel.

He repeated this over and gain for 300 times .ALL FOR EATING THE MEAL PROVIDED AT THE VIP LOUNGE.

The airline authorities only recently figured out the scheme of this man but they could not avoid making the refund of ticket as there was no rider to this effect.

Really Funny and Freak are many persons in this world. Each one invents his own method to make gains .

Which is Right or Wrong

This happened in a CBSE school.

In a class room, a student accidentally hit the classmate who was drinking water from his waterbottle. As a result, the water spilled over on to the notebook kept by another student. 

But the owner of the notebook got annoyed and beat the student whose drinking water spilled. In retaliation, the latter also beat the first student having the notebook.

This incident was brought to the attention of the Principal of the school.  

All the three students were asked to stay away from attending the school  for the next 4 days.  This punishment was given despite the students expressing the mistakes and their parents request not to punish like this.

It was informed by the students of that class that generally the Princy is having dislike for them and hace a biased approach 

The behaviour and judgement of the Principal was not correct according to me.It amounted to a punsihment given in a NCC or Military camp.

Either the Principal should have made all these students to shake hands and take a pledge " They will remain good friends and conduct themselves properly hereafter".

I would appreciate if  the readers give their valuableopinion about this incident.

Bizarre Woman

A 63 year German lady won a huge lottery £330,000 but she tore the entire cash into pieces and flushed it down the toilet after getting drunk.

She did this out of dejection .

After sensing the windfall profit she made, the Care home where her husband died, promptly sent a bill t!onwards his medical expenses. The woman read the letter after consuming five bottles of champagne a few days after getting the windfall. She got angry with the bill and resorted to the bizarre act of throwing the torn booty into the toilet.

Might be the bill amount was more than the lottery prize she got.
