12 Simple Things You Can Do To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

1. Turn it off

   Turn off lights, televisions, videos, stereos and computers when not in use - they can use 10 to 40% of the power when on standby. Also, unplug chargers as soon as they have finished charging.

2. Be exact

   Fill the kettle with only as much water as you need.

3. Close it

   Don't leave fridge doors open for longer than necessary.

4. Check your tires

   Properly inflated tires can improve your car’s fuel efficiency.

5. Use no plastic

   Use cloth bags when going shopping and avoid buying products which use too much plastic.

6. Fan up

   Instead of using air conditioners in the summer, wear cool clothes, and use a fan.

7. Drive less

   Do your weekly errands in a single trip or pay your bills online. Walk, bike, ride the bus or carpool.

8. Optimize your speed

   You will consume up to 25% less fuel if you drive no more than 90 km/hr.

9. Drive hybrid

   A hybrid or other fuel-efficient car emits less carbon dioxide. 

10. Replace them

    Replace your incandescent bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL). CFLs cost 3 to 5 times as much but use less than a third of the power. Also, replace old fridge and other appliances with energy-efficient ones.

11. Watch what you eat

    Choose food produced close to your home.

12. Recycle

    Consume less, and re-use old products.

There is nothing,which gives you a joy equal to that of gratitude.One hears a bird sing,sees a lovely flower,looks at a little child,observes an act of generosity,reads a beautiful sentence,looks at the setting sun,no matter what,suddenly this comes upon you,that the manifests the divine,that there is something behind the world,which is Divine.

He who thinks evil,drives himself to evil.In course of time,he becomes evil.

Many of us, alas stand as beggars before the world asking for a few crumbs of possessions, pleasure,and power.

A simple world,a little act,a tiny thought-filled with love-can take a person out of the darkness of despair,into the light of hope and joy.

कभी कभी जीवन में कुछ पाने के लिए कुछ खोना पड़ता है,
जैसे कभी कभी हँसते हुए रोना पड़ता है ,
इंसान वोह है जो हर हाल में रहकर प्रसन्न ,
याद करता रहे उस परम शक्ति को,
सत्कर्मो से अपने,
उज्वलित रखे अपनी जीवन ज्योति को|

फासलें और उलझनें बढने लगती हैं,
जब हम अपने दिल की बात कह नही पाते,
रिश्तों के बीच दूरियां बढने लगती है,
जब हम चुप नही रह पाते,
दिलों को दिल से मिलाकर ही,
बीच की दीवारें हटाकर ही,
दूर कर पायेंगे वोह दूरियां,
जो आ जाती है दर्मियां |

चारों दिशाओं में बजने लगती हैं घंटियाँ ,
जब तुमाहरे आने कि हवा लाती है ख़बर
खुशबू से महक उठता है उपवन हर वक्त
तुम्हे ढूढती है मेरी बेचैन नज़र जाओ ,ऐसा न हो कि
ख़त्म हो जाए ज़िन्दगी का सफर.

Don't view problems negatively.Look upon them as training grounds.When you face a problem,turn your attention to solutions.Be the source of a solution to the problem rather than become its victim.

पायल की रुनझुन तुम्हारी ,

करती है मन प्रफ्फुलित मन मेरा

तेरे आने से महक उठता है

घर-आँगन मेरा.

The only thing standing between most people and thier dreams is fear of failure.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, matters little, when, compared to what lies within you.

Courage gives you the self-control to persist where others have failed.Ultimately,the degree of courage you live with determines the amount of fulfillment you recieve.

When you form the habit of searching for the positive in every circumstance,your life will move into its highest dimensions.

People who study others are wise but those who study themselves are enlightened.

सावन का पहला बादल जगाता है नए अरमान ,
आशाओं की बहुत ऊंची है उड़ान,
सागर की लहरें बदलती है करवटें हर पल,
हर लम्हां जीना चाहता है मेरा कौतूहल |

A good friend is one, who can understand,can heal, and who is always there when you need him .When y0u call him sincerely, he is always there to guide and uphold you and to love you in a true way.

भिखारिन !!
कैसी दुखदाई रही होगी ,उसकी ज़िन्दगी,
दुखों की एक अनकही दास्ताँ है उसकी ज़िन्दगी,
डगर डगर भटकने को मजबूर है उसकी ज़िन्दगी,
बेबसी और तन्हाई से लिपटी उसकी ज़िन्दगी ,
जैसे मरने का इंतज़ार कर रही हो उसकी ज़िन्दगी|

Last Day in the Hospital:

""A Happy Morning because I am feeling fine.I know only few hours are left in the hospital.After that I will be able to go back to my home...sweet...home.Thank God for taking care of me so well...the Doctors {Angels} have really done their best effort to care me..May God really bless them all...""

You carry with you, around you, in you, the atmosphere created by your actions,and if what you do is beautiful,good and harmonious then your atmosphere is good and harmonious;and vice versa.

Day 6 : 2nd April ,2008 Place : Max Hospital

'' The worst Day spent in the hospital.I had swelling in my right wrist.It was paining like hell.I was always immobile with drip in one hand an swelling in the other.I felt like a handicapped person the whole day.I was not in a position to speak to anyone, so I was feeling very sad and lonely."

जिसे बनाया बड़े यतन से खुदा ने ,वोह माँ है

जो माफ़ कर देती हर खता ,वोह माँ है

माँ से ,जितना प्रेम करो वोह कम है,

समां जाते माँ के आँचल में सब गम है

माँ से दूर कोई कैसे रह सकता है ,

माँ कि आँखों से सिर्फ़ प्रेम बरसता है  ,

जहाँ माँ है वहां मेरा संसार बसता है |

तन्हाई में अक्सर तुम बहुत याद आते हो,
तन्हाई में ख्यालों में तुम तूफ़ान उठाते हो,
मुझे तुम बिन सब तरफ़ अँधेरा दिखता है
दूर -दूर तक तुम्हारे सिवा कोई नहीं जंचता है।

Circus, is a place where Human Beings and animals work together in a harmonious way to entertain the world.If we see the other side of the coin, the whole world is a circus.The Almighty God is the ringmaster and we all living beings are the puppets in his hand.Our Virtues and Vices make us happy or unhappy.The animals around us live in a different world all together and they are more happier than us.

Primarily because they are not calculative and cunning as the human beings.The misery,unhappiness, agony and suffering which some of us go through just because of our thoughts, deeds and actions.I personally feel that only those people are happy and know how to live who make others happy too.

Most of us want importance from others,without giving it to others,which is impossible.Like rights and duties go hand in hand, so does our behavioral,what we give to others and what we get from them.

Day 5 : 1st April ,2008 Place : Max Hospital

"" April Fool's Day" I am feeling like a fool myself today, with a fatigued body and depressed mind.The shivering continued for an hour and left me weak for the whole day.The blessings of my well wishers and friends kept pouring in continuously. With God's Grace, at the end of the day I was feeling much better""
