Ram Teri Ganga Maili.

K.F. Sahiwala
Hi Folks, I have read an interested article in Gujrati Newspaper i.e. GUJRAT EXPRESS the article on the river of Ganga. Last week also there was a beautiful scene of the people taking a Holy bath in the river of Ganga in the recently realesed movie BHOOL BHOOLAIYA and LAGA CHUNARIYA PE DAAG. We come across with all such scenes of Ganga River, where people deep in to the water and get salvation.

They do POOJA and worship of the river and believe it as a Holy Water where one has to deep himself in to Ganga to make oneself pure and celibacy. People gives lot of respect to this river and there is a huge crowd at the time of festival. The situation of this river is really very pathetic inspite of the people respect and devotion to this river.

Firstly, people come there to pour the ashes of thier deceased and makes the water impure and dirty. Sometimes with addition to the ashes, the left over unburn bones and skeleton of the body gets mixed up with the ashes and does not get dissolved in water and makes the water to stink and dusty.

In the paper, the photograph of the left over of unburned bones and skeleton's was shown and thus makes the water dirty and smelly. In addition to that people deep to take bath and thus ganga water becomes MAILY (Dirty). Moreover, Thanks to our industrial development growth which throw their wastages and damages to this water making the river more polluted and dirty.

The real picture of Ganga is not pure and beautiful but becomes totally dirty and still it flows from the Homalayas and gets mixed up in to the sea without complaining and restricting to flow. It carries away the dust, impurity of Industries, Sin and sorrow of Human beings. It is ready to absorb all the dirtness of this world as to think in future that people will become pure and sinless. On the contrary, The wrong doings, sin, sorrow, humility, enemity, hatred are rising giving more burden to this river.

Our Late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi has taken a plan to clean the water of GANGA and hopefully the project was about to go and in beetween he died by leaving our ganga water like this. It is been rightly said that instead of getting drowned to the river as to make our body clean, one should be ever ready to clean his soul and mind first and then body.

Gandhi Jayanti

K.F. Sahiwala

Today is a 2 nd October, i.e The Birthday of our Freedaom Fighter Mahatma Gandhiji. It is a pride for our country to have such a great freedom fighther. I salute him for his great work and I always got inspired by him about his struggle in getting back the freedom of our country from British through Non- Violence.

I missed the oppurtunity to go to MANI BHAVAN at Girgaun (Chowpatty) to his residence to show the greatness and love towards him for his prestigious movement in bringing back to our country. I really admire him for his prestige thoughts and non- violence. Today, Mrs Sonia Gandhi really admire and preaches Gandhian thoughts and non - violence. She said at the meeting in United Nations "It is not the relevance of Mahatma Gandhi that is in question today... it is whether we have the courage to emulate his preachings and what he lived and died for," she said in an address to the United Nations General Assembly. She was heard in rapt attention by leaders from different nations and her son Rahul Gandhi, External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee and his deputy Anand Sharma."

She said the world is facing violence of various kinds and there was a collective failure of the international community in tackling terrorism and checking nuclear proliferation.Plz check at the site http://specials.rediff.com/news/2007/oct/02slide1.htm

Its really true there are nuclear wepeons to destroy the terrosim . To tackle the terrossim by non-violence is the sign of courage and bravery.she said, was his belief that strength comes from righteousness, not force, power comes from truth, not might, victory comes from moral courage, not imposed submission.
