Shree Rudram stotram was recited at a function in White House USA to celebrate Aadi Shankaracharya Jayanti.

Dear Editor, It is most heartening to read about Sneh

Toprani! May she achieve great things and inspire others to forge ahead in life!

Sonali’s article is also exceedingly relevant. It is sad that most of us are too preoccupied with our little world to give any thought to others, who have greater problems to overcome and need cooperation and understanding from society. People don’t seem to be aware of the fact that the one who helps gets even greater benefits – albeit unseen – than the one who is helped. We need to think of challenged youngsters, eunuchs, leprosy patients, women who are financially dependent on those who bully them, weak-willed young people who lack the strength of mind to oppose their parents pushing them into careers/marriages that are distasteful – and so many more issues! The story of planting ten thousand trees puts one to shame! Thank you for giving it. We tend to get proud if we do anything that is a bit out of the way – such stories help us to realize that we have no reason for vanity, especially when we compare ourselves to those who have so little and yet do so much with it!

Wishing you a very Happy Diwali and all the best for the New Year. Yours sincerely,Purnima L. Toolsidass

“…Magical treatment for Dry Eyes with contact lenses”

It has been traditionally believed that contact lenses are used only for cosmetic purpose for those who do not want to wear glasses. However, there are some special contact lenses called sclera contact lenses that can help in treatment of severe dry eyes and also in some diseases of eyes where glasses or soft contact lenses fail to provide good vision.

Mumbai Eye Care, Cornea and LASIK Centre run a contact lens clinic that deals with such special lenses. Dr. Jat in Ashar is a renowned ophthalmologist who has been trained from India's best institutions such as All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi and L V Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad. He holds to his credit various publications in international journals and is India's face at various international conferences. He is also a receiver of the prestigious 'Achievement Award' fo r 2 0 1 5 f ro m A m e r i ca n A ca d e my o f Ophthalmology.

Dr. Ashar will share with us a few points about this treatment.

Q. How often do you see dry eye patients?

A. Being a specialist in cornea and ocular surface, I see nearly 25 to 30 patients a week with dry eyes. The severity of the disease is varies from mild to very severe in these cases

Q. What are the treatment options in such cases?

A. For mild to moderate disease the patients usually get relief with just drops that include tear substitutes and immunomodulators. However, in severe cases despite using drops every 1 hourly; patients may still experience dryness, light sensitivity and poor vision. Such cases are usually seen in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, Stevens Johnson Syndrome / SJS (which is a form of reaction due to some drugs). In these cases, medicines alone may not work. In

such cases, we have a n e w e r f o r m o f treatment which is c a l l e d a S c l e r a l contact lens.

Q. Can you tell us more about scleral contact lens?

A. Scleral contact lenses are special lenses that are large diameter lenses. These have a fluid reservoir in them and that allows keeping eyes constantly moist. This decreases the need for frequent instillation of drops. These can be used in any grade of dry eyes but severe cases can appreciate the benefit of these lenses the most.

Q. Are these lenses commonly available?

A. No. These lenses are not available on over the counter basis like soft lenses. These need to be fitted by an expert in the field. At the cornea and contact lens clinic of Mumbai Eye Care, Cornea and LASIK Centre, our patients who need these lenses, undergo a systematic trial that includes looking at the fit of the lens, comfort on extended wear and vision after lens wear are checked. After getting the perfect lens fit, we need to get the custom made lens for the patient.

Q. What has been the patient experience with these?

A. These lenses can change the patient's life. From needing the frequently instilling drops to complete freedom from putting drops. “I could never imagine having magical treatment for dry eyes with contact lenses” were the words of a 22 year old girl who had SJS and was suffering with severe dry eyes. She had to stop her studies because of dry eyes. Now after using these lenses she has resumed her studies and leads a normal life.

Q. Are these lenses useful in any other conditions as well?

550 0 IssueIssue

Dr. Jatin Ashar

A. Yes. These are used in patients with very high cylinder numbers. In conditions such as keratoconus that

are otherwise advised to undergo cornea transplant or do not tolerate other type of contact lenses can be fitted with these lenses. Also cases with corneal scars can be fitted with these lenses.

Q. How would you know one know if they need these lenses?

A. Any patient who is using drops for dry eyes and still not satisfied with treatment, patients with

keratoconus, cases who are diagnosed with Stevens Johnson Syndrome/ SJS, Arthritis related dry eyes need to consult for these lenses

I liked this fwd and it gave me goose bumps and a lesson for life so just thought of sharing.

Nice article, worth your time to read.

Airline Lunches -

I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight to Delhi.

'I'm glad I have a good book to read Perhaps I will get a short sleep,' I thought.

Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me.

I decided to start a conversation.

'Where are you guys headed?' I asked the Young man seated nearest to me.

"Agra. We'll be there for two weeks for special training, and then we're being deployed for operations."

After flying for about an hour, an announcement was made that lunches were available on payment. It would be several hours before we reached Delhi , and I quickly decided a lunch would help pass the time...

As I reached for my wallet, I overheard a soldier ask his buddy if he planned to buy lunch. 'No, that cost a lot of money, probably wouldn't be worth it. I'll wait till we get to Delhi ...."

His buddy agreed.

I looked around at the other soldiers. None were buying lunch.

I walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant enough money to cover for 10 lunches and told her 'Take a lunch to all those soldiers...'

She grabbed my arms and squeezed tightly. Her eyes wet with tears, she thanked me. 'My young brother was a soldier in Kargil, it's almost like you are doing it for him...'

Picking up ten lunchboxes, she headed up the aisle to where the boys were seated.

She stopped at my seat and asked, 'Which do you like best - Veg or chicken?'

Chicken,' I replied, wondering why she asked...

She turned and went to the front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from first class. "This is your thanks".

After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, heading for the rest room. An old man stopped me.

I saw what you did. I want to be part of it. Here, take this.'

Good deed...

He handed me a Rs 500/- note.

Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Captain coming down the aisle, looking at the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he wasn't looking for me, but noticed he was looking at the numbers only on my side of the plane.

When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, held out his hand, and said, 'I want to shake your hand.'

Quickly unfastening my seat-belt I stood and took the Captain's hand.

With a booming voice he said, 'I was an Air Force pilot a long time back.

Once someone bought me lunch. It was an act of kindness I never forgot.'

I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of the passengers.

Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs.

A kid who looked about 18 was sitting about six rows in front of me reached out his hand, wanting to shake mine.

I felt him stick a currency note in my palm.

When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to depart.

Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a word.

Another currency note!

Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their Trip up to their training area... I walked over to them and handed them all the currency notes that was given to me on the flight and said.

'It will take you some time to reach your training area.

It will be about time for a sandwich. May God Bless You.' and thank you for doing whatever you do.

Ten young men of honour left that flight feeling the love and respect of their fellow ountrymen. As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer for their safe return.

These soldiers were giving their all for our country.

I could only give them a couple of meals.

It seemed so little...

A Serviceman is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank cheque made, "Payable to India" for an amount of 'up to and including my life'....!

That is Honour, and there are way too many people in this country who don't understand it...!Hope this one is a good forward message...!

The day will come when my body will lie upon a white sheet neatly

tucked under four corners of a mattress located in a hospital; busily occupied with the living and the dying.

At a certain moment a doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function and that, for all intents and purposes, my life has stopped.

When that happens, do not attempt to instil artificial life into my body by the use of a machine, and don't call this my deathbed, let it be called the bed of life, and let my body be taken from it to help others lead fuller lives.

Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face or love in the eyes of a woman.

Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain.

Give my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play.

Give my kidneys to the one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week.

Take my bones, every muscle, every fibre and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk.

Explore every corner of my brain. Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that, someday a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window.

Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow.

If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weakness and all prejudice against my fellow man.

Give my sins to the devil.

Give my soul to God.

If, by chance, you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked, I will live forever.

Surat diamond merchant does it again

Gifts 400 flats, 1,260 cars as Diwali bonus to employees

Remember the Surat-based diamond merchant, who became famous worldwide for distributing 491 cars and 200 flats as Diwali bonus to nearly 1,200 of his employees in 2015? The benevolent billionaire has done it again, this time gifting 400 flats and 1,260 cars to his employees on the occasion of Diwali.

Savji Dholakia, who owns Hari Krishna Exports, has spent as much as Rs 51 crore for the best performers of the company this year, a ritual that he has been practising since 2011. The incentives were announced during a meeting on Tuesday, October 24, just days before the festival of lights.

Dholakia is a school drop out and arrived in Surat in search of a job. With his dedication and hardwork, he was quick to build the diamond empire from scratch and his company is now one of the top five companies in the industry.

Recently, Dholakia's son Dravya hit headlines after he was spotted working at a shop in Kerala, where he was sent by his father to understand life and the struggles of the poor. The MBA graduate from the US arrived in the South Indian state with just three pairs of clothes and Rs 7,000, which he was asked to use only in case of emergency.

Dravya, who was unemployed for five days in Kerala, got a job in a bakery in Cheranelloor, following which he joined a call centre, a shoe shop and McDonalds in Kochi, where he was given a salary of Rs 4,000 plus per month.

1. The Nigerian con

The computer revolution, like all revolutions, has brought as much bad as it has good, but it's here to stay. Therefore, as painful as it may be, it's necessary to wise up to the fact that many nefarious people are using the internet to con you.

So here are 25 of the most common internet scams, designed to fool you into handing over your money or private details. Fortunately, simply being aware of these scams, and the modus operandi of these modern criminals, is enough to fortify and protect yourself from them.

This is a very common scam. You receive an email saying a rich Nigerian nobleman has died, or perhaps a foreigner with no heirs has died here, and all you need to do is help the emailer by letting them move the money to your account for safe keeping. For this you will be handsomely rewarded, they say. At some point the emailer will ask you for money, for bank fees, or something like that. Don't reply to any email that promises you money.

2. The natural disaster scam

Some scammers take advantage of high profile disasters they have seen on the news. They will often set up a fake website, or email you with a request for a charitable donation to the cause, pulling on your heartstrings. Always check to see if the charity is real. Don't take their word for it.

3. The 'your friends were robbed' scam

Frequently people have received messages from friends' email addresses saying they have been robbed. The friend asks for money because they are all alone in a strange country with nothing. The email account has been hacked by malware, though. If you send any money it won't be going to your friend. Ask your friend to call you so you can hear their voice.

4. The 'please click on this greeting card' scam

During holiday season some scammers post fake greeting cards all over the internet, but not with a spirit of good will. If you click on the link it will tell you to update your media player. This update is actually a virus. Don't accept software updates from emails.

5. The Craigslist scam

A common scam used on popular website Craigslist involves a buyer offering you triple the price of the item you put up for sale. They send you a check and ask

25 Common Internet Scams to Avoid

you to use it to cover the delivery costs on your end. Unfortunately after you send the item, the check bounces and you are left with nothing.

6. You have been pre-approved - Click here for your credit card!

The word pre-approved should send alarm bells ringing. But if not, you need to know that this scam will ask you to pay an annual fee upfront. Then you will never hear from the credit card company again.

7. An email ransom

So much information about many of us is available online, particularly through social media. Therefore someone with a cold heart can use this information to write you a ransom email, claiming your relative has been kidnapped, and you will only see them again if you pay up. This unfortunately does happen, but almost always, it is a barefaced lie. You should call your relative to make sure they are fine, to put your mind at ease.

8. Buy gold (and silver)

These people are often told that gold and silver make the best investment. So, if a company you have never heard of contacts you saying this, beware. They will ask for a deposit by credit card and a wire transfer for the purchase. Often, elderly people are taken in by this wicked scam. Only make investments via reputable companies and talk to an accountant if possible.

9. Take our survey

A lot of surveys on the internet are genuine marketing tools. Some, however, are designed in order to steal your internet passwords, bank details and internet history. Watch out for this. If you don't want to take a survey, try to close the window on your browser.

10. The scammer who loves you

Many men and women have been taken in by exotic strangers' professions of love, and poverty. If these adorable new friends start asking for money they probably are not for real. Always exercise caution when making friendships online.

11. The 'fake festival' scam

A lot of young people have been taken in by the promise of tickets to a unique festival. The tickets get paid for, but the event does not exist. Do some research before you attend a festival. Does anybody else know anything about it? How did it go last year?

12. Hacked Facebook accounts of people you trust

Just like emails, Facebook accounts can be hacked. So you may receive a message from someone you know requesting money or something like that. Always call the person on the telephone - not via the Facebook account - to verify the request.

13. Fake bank SMS message

This is known as smishing, when a fake text message will appear in your inbox, purporting to be from your bank, they may claim you are required to enter your details. If you do, some criminal has just got them. Do not respond to a message from a bank. Call the number on the back of your bank card and speak to them directly to see if there is a problem with your account.

14. You have won the lottery - in Portugal

If you ever get a message claiming you have won the lottery, even a lottery in a country you have never even been to, that then asks you to pay some money up front, you should know that this is also a scam, a very common one.

15. The phone number quiz

If you ever play a quiz online that asks for your phone number, don't give it. They could be using your phone number to charge your phone account quite a lot of money.

16. The 'starved orphan' scam

Perhaps you will notice an image of a poor child on the internet with a message. It may say that if you donate a small amount of money he'll eat today. Yet the money is not going to him at all, but some scammer. Always check that the charity you donate to is a registered one. Remember they may be giving a fake charity number, so do a proper search.

17. The classic classified scam

If you see something, a car, a house, with a ridiculously low price, something that stands out, then really question whether it is genuine. This type of scam is extremely common. The house itself, or car etc, may be for sale, but not with the person you are dealing with - they have just stolen the photo. If you never get to see it yourself, and they request an up-front deposit, don't pay a dime. It's a con.

18. The fake antivirus

This scam takes advantage of our awareness that

viruses are everywhere online, and plays on your fears. It offers you a free scan and tells you you should purchase or download their antivirus program. It could be theft or simply a clever virus, either way, avoid it. If you are in the market for a good antivirus program, do some research.

19. A free diploma?

A few companies have promised official standard high school diplomas. All they ask is a fee and that you answer a multiple choice quiz. These exams are not real and they are simply designed to make money. If you want a high school diploma, contact an educational institution that you have heard of.

20. Travel based scams

Travel is big business on the internet, so you should expect a certain amount of fraud here too. If you see some too good to be true deals for top hotels or luxury flights then you may be on to something. Either they are totally fake, or are loaded with so many hidden costs that you will be paying more than you bargained for. Stick to trusted websites and travel agents.

21. IRS internet scam

This is a really audacious scam, but it has been working. You may receive a call said to be from the IRS, claiming you owe back taxes. If you don't pay up you will be arrested. They offer you a quick solution. Simply purchase a gift card at Amazon or iTunes and read the code to them, they ask. Of course they are not from the IRS, who will never call you before you call them.

22. Fake policeman fraud

Some scammers have taken to impersonating police. They will call claiming a relative of yours is in police custody. They will demand a bail payment from you to be placed on a pre-paid card, and ask that you provide the card's secret code. The police won't ask you for money like this. Hang up and call the police yourself to make sure.

23. Work from home set-up scam

This is all over the internet at the moment. You will see what seems to be testimony from someone on social media, or as a comment on an article. The person will claim it's easy to make money working from home. They will want you to pay a large fee and they will promise to provide you with all you need to start up your home business. It's just a con.

550 0 IssueIssue


24. The hit and run scam

This shocking scam will claim that your child has committed a hit and run

offense, but the victim and his friends have caught up with them and kidnapped them until they pay up for the damage caused. The 'kidnapper' will ask you to pay up, or else. This is a common scam perpetrated on Facebook and other similar places, so you should not believe it. Call your loved one to check all is well.

25. Phishing - the most common internet scam of them all

Phishing is a scam that pretends that your bank account or online shopping account has been compromised. They will ask you to confirm your details and to unfreeze your account on an official looking website, which is totally fake. Once you have given your password and account number they are happy, but you won't be. Be very careful with internet banking. If you have doubts, close the window and go to the bank's website directly. Check the information you have from the bank and take the URL from there.

Pickles have always been a part of the Indian meal. Indian pickles are a perfect blend of spices and apart from the great taste they have some really great health benefits as well.Lemon and mango pickles are the most common and easily available pickles and are quite helpful in preventing morning sickness when pregnant.

Pickles helps in losing weight as well, because they have fewer calories and the spices in it break the fat easily.

Seasonal pickles are rich in nutrients and antioxidants, which helps the body fight against free radicals.

According to few sources it is advisable to take some quantity of amla pickle everyday if you are diabetic because it helps to balance the insulin in our body.

Home made pickles are traditionally fermented pickles, unlike the packed ones, which is why

3 Dates per day

This happens to your body when you eat 3 dates per day. I had no idea.

Dates are often underestimated or only seen as a sweet. But there are many good reasons to regularly eat the sweet fruit. Here are a few of them:

1. Free your arteries

The high potassium content will not only help your heart but also curb atherosclerosis. This vascular disease is due to calcium deposited on the vessel walls. This not only narrows the arteries, but also carries the risk in the form of potential blockages. This increases the risk of strokes, heart attacks and other diseases enormously. Eating three dates each day will make a big difference and help keep your vessels clear.

2. Support for your liver

Studies have shown that dates can also help contain liver cirrhosis. This painful condition occurs when the liver can not properly deal with toxins and produces too much

collagen. Dates support your liver to overcome the daily requirements.

3. For a healthy heart

Dates are fantastic for your heart. Because the fruit contains a lot of potassium, they are perfectly suited to counteract cardiovascular diseases. At the same time, they can reduce LDL-cholesterol - which is a risk factor for stroke and heart attacks.

4. Eagle eyes

There is a lot of vitamin A in dates. This vitamin

helps your cornea regenerate and protects the eyes. They also contain

lutein and zeaxanthin, which are both nutrients that allow your eyes to better filter out harmful UV-rays. This means that your eyes remain "fresh" longer and better maintain their capacity.

5. More energy

Together with a few nuts or almonds, dates are the ideal afternoon snack. The sugar content in dates gives you an energy boost that lasts longer through the fat from the nuts and makes us feel full. Simultaneously, brain activity is stimulated, so you get a clearer head from the vitamins. Of course, they are a great sports nutrition.

6. Better digestion

Many people already know, but dates aide with digestion. They help against constipation, stomach aches and many other complaints. Through their "cleansing" effect, they are fantastic as a precaution against intestinal cancer. All these features can be explained by the fiber and amino acid content. They help to optimize your digestion and help your body better absorb nutrients.

7. Dates as pain relief

Hard to believe but true: the magnesium in dates helps to reduce pain and swelling. It also has antibacterial properties and reduces infections in the body. In any case, they are a brilliant supplement to medicinal methods.

It's incredible just how much dates can help with. A great reason to enjoy them more often as a snack.

The temple is under restoration.

Legend has it that in the 16th century a wealthy salior by the name of Bhojomal Nancy Bhattia bought this island (Manora Island) from the Khan of Kalat, who owned most of the land along the coastline at that time. His family commissioned a temple on the lay terrain.

Leap in time, 1920s postcard describes the temple in whitewash. Set on a raised plinth, in Nagara or North Indian style, a dazzling white sanctuary rises above the sea line. It appears as a living devotional site, bounded by a low wall and garlanded in paper streamers. At the time, Manora served as British naval base, taken over from its Talpur rulers almost a century earlier.

It is being renovated through the donation of USAID.

Jaywantiben Mehta, senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader and former union minister passed away early on 7th November 2016 at her residence following a brief illness. She was 78 and had served as a minister in the cabinet of former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee. A housewife-turned-politician, Mehta breathed her last around 1.30 a.m. today and the last rites are scheduled this evening at Shivaji Park crematorium, said a party official. Around six years, she had penned and released her multi-lingual autobiography, 'Marching With Time', detailing her life's journey from a middle-class home-maker to a municipal corporator to parliamentarian and then a union minister.
