Letter from father to son - GD Birla's Letter to his Son Basant on power and utility of wealth.

पिता का पत्र, पुत्र के नाम ची बसन्त, यह जो लिखता हुं उसे बडे होकर बुढे होकर भी पढना, अपने अनुभव की बात करता हुं| संसार मे मनुष्य जन्म दुरलभ है| यह सच्च बात है| और मनुष्य जन्म पाकर जिसने शरीर का दुर्उयोग कीया वह पशु है| तुमहारे पास धन है अच्छे साधन है, उसका सेवा के लीये उपयोग किया तब तो साधन संभव है अन्यथा वह शैतान के औझार है| तुम इतनी बातो का धयान रखना: 1. धन को मौज शौख मे कभी उपयोग ना करना| रावन ने मौज शौख की थी | जनक ने सेवा की थी | धन सदा रहेगा भी नही, इसलीये जितने दिन पास मे है उसका उपयोग सेवा के लिये करो| अपने उपर कम खर्च करो बाकी दुखियो का दुख दूर करने मे वय्य करो| 2. धन शकति है| इस शकति के नशे मे किसि के साथ अन्याय हो जाना संभव है, इस का धयान रखो| 3. अपनि संतान के लिये यही उपदेश छोडकर जाओ| यदी बच्चे ऐश आराम वाले होंगे तो, पाप करेगे ओर व्यापार चौपट करेगे| ऐसे नालायको को धन कभी न देना, उनके हाथ मे धन आये उससे पहेले उसे गरीबो मे बांट देना| हम भाइओने व्यापार को बढाया है तो यह समझकर कि तुम लोग धन का सदुपयोग करोगे| 4. सदा यह याद रखना के तुमहारा धन यह जनता की धरोहर है| तुम उसे अपन

Mr Prime Minister ... Lok Pal Here...

The Most Debated Question on the date in Indian Political Scenario is whether the Prime Minister and other of his colleagues should be under the purview of the Anti Corruption Machinery of Lokpal? Whether the Higher Judiciary should be covered under the same? The same is being discussed and criticized in the Public Also..  Yeh Publik hai bhai....  They Ask Kya Chupana Hai... ? Corrupt ho kya ... Jo Lokpal Se Bachna Chahte Ho....??? But is it that simple to decide whether the Lokpal Should have jurisdiction over the Prime Ministers office? For this we should know who will be a Lokpal? Lokpal will be a constitutional machinery which will have power to receive complaints of corruption against those covered under the same. It may have power to investigate or interrogate the concerned and others for coming to conclusion It may have power to order enquiry against the official found corrupt and may have powers to recommend the investigations against the corrupt Prime Minister is the E

Swami, Baba, Yoga Guru, and Businessman

Many faces and many facets of Yoga guru Baba Ramdevs Life came out in past 15 days. Baba Ramdev Landing in private jet at Delhi Airport on 1st of June and then three of top ministers of Union Government going to receive him and to placate him and to avoid another ANSHAN, to his breaking fast on 12 June at the hands of other spiritual leaders. What happened in between was surprising. Baba Ramdev was forced to leave Delhi by the use of Lathicharge and Teargas Shells and the things about his wealth and lifestyle coming out in public. One Lady Rajbala going into coma because of police atrocities and the Baba Declaring wealth of 1100 Crores. Baba Running a company of Ayurvedic Medicines and he himself acting as a brand ambassador of the ayurvedic medicines. Baba also says that Swadeshi things to be used instead of foreign goods... but his own ashram as reported in one of the dailies uses the non swadeshi brands. Baba also came out with a boycott list of the brands that he think should be bo

Inflation and Commodity Exchange - a thought...

Commodity trading on exchanges is time and again being held responsible for the increase in the inflation in the essential commodities. Recently Silver touched price of Rs 75000 per kg and then came back crashing to Rs 50000 per kg. It was later found that the lots of speculative trading on the New York Comex was responsible for such a shootup in the silver prices. NY Comex then increased the margin requirement of trading in silver to 84% from 25% and then the prices came down drastically.. this establishes the nexus between the price rise and the speculative trading on the commodity exchanges.. In India on the commodity exchanges all the commodities are being traded and even speculated.. some having marign money requirement of as low as 12 to 15% and thus the prices shoot up because of the speculation.. For example if i can buy a lot of some food grain at 15% margin and one lot on delivery costs 100000 Rs.. i can buy the same for Rs 15000 in a vayada bazaar or the futures market and t
