This MBA student from the US came for his summer vacation, with a plan to go back soon. But his dad sent him to Cochin to earn a living with 3 very stringent conditions.

1. He could only carry 3 pairs of clothes, and ₹7,000 (only for emergency use, not for expenses). 2. He could only work for a week at a place.

3. He could not reveal who he was.

Btw, the answer to the last part is that he is the son of a billionaire, Savji Dholakia, who owns a ₹6,000 crore diamond business.

Deepika Padukone in Besharam, OH MAH..! I haven't watched it yet. But I watched Second Lt. Arun Khetarpal in Paramvir Chakra recently.

Late Second Lt. Arun Khetarpal (PVC) was 21 years old when he passed out from IMA & was commissioned into 17 Poona Horse of the Indian Army. Just 6 months after his joining 1971 war broke out with Pakistan. He was undergoing the Young Officers’ Course at Ahmednagar at that time. He was recalled from the course and soon joined his unit to take part in the famous “Battle of Basantar” in the Shakargarh sector.

Will this be END of Ola and Uber?

Ratan Tata and Mukesh Ambani have joined hands with a startup (BluSmart) to transform India's public transportation system.

BluSmart is India's first electric taxi company. The company's 600+ electric vehicle fleet now runs only in Delhi, NCR. Taxi rental companies Uber and Ola revolutionized the way we commute.

But now, complaints about Uber and Ola’s bad customer service are at an all-time high. And we are all sick of their surge pricing and cancellations.

How trackless trams could help revitalize city suburbs

Trackless trams have emerged from high-speed rail technology. Versions of trackless trams have been in development for almost 20 years, but in 2017 the Chinese Rail Corporation, CRRC, introduced an autonomously guided tram, a significant advance of the design and technology known as Autonomous Rapid Transit (ART).

ART has the ride quality and service characteristic of light rail, but at significantly less cost as it avoids the disruption caused by installing rail in the roadbed.

From borrowing Rs 500 from a relative, to becoming a millionaire.

This is the story of Krishna Yadav who sets an example for all the women out there to believe in themselves, work hard and never give up. Coming from Bulandshahr in UP, she & her family were facing acute financial crisis.

Her husband faced major health issues which shifted major responsibilities to Krishna’s shoulders.

She then decided to move to Delhi for better opportunities & borrowed Rs 500 from a relative.

भारतीय संस्कृति

समयसूचक AM और PM का उदगम भारत ही था। पर हमें बचपन से यह रटवाया गया,विश्वास दिलवाया गया कि इन दो शब्दों AM और PM का मतलब होता है:

AM: एंटी मेरिडियन (ante meridian)
PM: पोस्ट मेरिडियन (post meridian)

एंटी यानि पहले, लेकिन किसके?
पोस्ट यानि बाद में, लेकिन किसके? यह कभी साफ नहीं किया गया, क्योंकि यह चुराये गये शब्द का लघुतम रूप था।

अध्ययन करने से ज्ञात हुआ हमारी प्राचीन संस्कृत भाषा ने इस संशय को अपनी आंधियों में उड़ा दिया, अब, सब साफ-साफ दृष्टिगत है।

AM- आरोहनम् मार्तण्डस्य Aarohanam Martandasya
PM-पतनम् मार्तण्डस्य Patanam Martandasya

World's biggest Financial SHOCK might not be a US recession, but the SECRET Gold in #China !?

Yesterday, China's central bank made some announcements. Utility of the digital Yuan (Up by 1800%) will expand beyond 4 trial cities.

Share of Gold in Forex Reserves across nations - USA : ~74%, India : ~7% , China : ~5% (officially)

But, wait.. there's something fishy-

What if the Chinese Govt 'secretly' had more than the USA's Gold Reserves?

Afterall, "He who owns the gold, makes the rules."

Here's an interesting Story -

Bharat (India) is the Best Nation. Why?

1. India never invaded any country in her last 10000 years of history.

2. India invented the Number System. Zero was invented by Aryabhatta.

3. The World’s first university was established in Takshila in 700BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects. University of Nalanda built in the 4th century BC was one of the greatest achievements of ancient India in the field of education.

Should Indians be happy, as many willing to, on Rishi Sunak possibly becoming PM of UK just because an Indian origin may head Britain which ruled us!!

At least going by history answer would be no & he would be as good for us as Kamala Harris of US, means at best nothing In contrast, he will have responsibility to prove the people of UK that he is not in any way influenced by the fact of he being of Indian origin & accordingly ensuring that no extra favors are passed on to India.

According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve maths, memorize things, and recall lessons.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.

When Lord Krishna left the body, he was cremated, his whole body was found in 5 elements, but his heart was beating like a normal living man & he was safe, his heart is safe till today, which is of Lord Jagannath. Lives inside a wooden statue & beats like that, very few know this Great mystery of Mahaprabhu
Cleaning is done by a gold broom
Mahaprabhu Jagannath (Shri Krishna) is also known as the God of Kaliyuga. Jagganath Swami lives in Puri (Odisha), with his sister Subhadra & brother Balram, but the mystery is such that no one could know till date.

In Mahabharata, Karna asks Lord Krishna - "My mother left me the moment I was born. Is it my fault I was born an illegitimate child?

I did not get the education from Dhronacharya because I was not considered a Kshatriya. Parshuraam taught me but then gave me the curse to forget everything when he came to know I was son of Kunthi belong to Kshatriya.

A cow was accidentally hit by my arrow & its owner cursed me for no fault of mine.

I was disgraced in Draupadi's Swayamvar.

One more political gimmick of Congress n Nehru spoils the life of an individual - Ms. Budhni Mehjan, who was made to welcome Nehru by garlanding him & then being photographed with him while inaugurating DVC power plant in 1959. As per senthal tribal law (as published), exchanging garland means marriage & hence the lady was immediately outcasted from community. After outcasting her (for 'marrying' one outside community) she was not even given a glass of water in the village & been cursed for whole life.

52 year old juvenile kerosene has opened his mouth again & this time said "India isn't a nation but a union of states". Okay Kid!! Let me explain what is Confederation, Federation & Union.

Confederation - Small nations form one country & give authority to central Govt. This structure is weakest of all. Any country can separate anytime, as per their convenience. Example Serbia and Montenegro. 

Federal - States form a country and give some power of it's states to the central government. This is slightly more educated form of confederation.

Steve Jobs dies a billionaire, with a fortune of $7 billion, at the age of 56 from pancreatic cancer, & here are some of his last words
👇👇👇

“At this moment, lying on the bed, sick and remembering all my life, I realize that all my recognition and wealth that I have is meaningless in the face of imminent death. You can hire someone to drive a car for you, make money for you – but you can not rent someone to carry the disease for you.”

As we get older we are smarter, and we slowly realize that the watch is worth $30 or $300 –

Remember this Kenyan runner Abel Mutai who was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped, thinking he had completed the race. A Spanish runner, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him and, realizing what was happening, started shouting at the Kenyan to continue running. Mutai didn't know Spanish and didn't understand. Realizing what was taking place, Fernandez pushed Mutai to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"

This is Matrix movie star Keanu Reeves. He was abandoned by his father at 3 years old and grew up with 3 different stepfathers. He is dyslexic. His dream of becoming a hockey player was shattered by a serious accident. His daughter died at birth. His wife died in a car accident. His best friend, River Phoenix, died of an overdose. His sister battled leukemia.

No bodyguards, no luxury houses. Keanu lives in an ordinary apartment and likes wandering around town and often seen riding a subway in NYC.

When Valmiki completed his Ramayana, Narada wasn't impressed. 'It is good, but Hanuman's is better', he said.

'Hanuman has written the Ramayana too!', Valmiki didn't like this at all, and wondered whose Ramayana was better.

So he set out to find Hanuman.

#SaturdayMotivation In Kadali-vana, grove of plantains, he found Ramayana inscribed on seven broad leaves of a banana tree.

He read it and found it to be perfect. The most exquisite choice of grammar and vocabulary, metre and melody. He couldn't help himself. He started to cry.
