Jai Shri Krishna to all !!!

Hope you all had a Happy & Safe Diwali, with lots of lights and crackers. As per our tradition we first light a ‘fuljadi’ in front of our ‘Thakorji’ at home, who we worship daily.

and belief in certain aspects of our religion. I would leave it here for you to go back to your parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts to know the importance of everything we do as Bhatias and why we do so.

Apart from ‘Bhatiagiri’,

– ‘Don’t just be a part of a cause, be the cause for others to be proud to be a part of it as well’. Younger generation has immense talent and all they need is right guidance and support when they fear fall. Only by giving them these comforts we shall have some more names added to our achievers' list and idols for the forth coming generation.

Jai Shri Krishna !

Nitin Dossa.

These traditions have been designed with an underlying meaning and display our faith

I would also like to take this opportunity to encourage all the Bhatias who are supporting and contributing to the projects of GBF. Taking it step forward, I recommend them

We are constantly joining hands with the Bhatia Sansatha in various parts of the world to ensure that our efforts don't duplicate but multiply.

Its great pride to be associated with such a rich culture that binds us ingeniously.

Navratri-Dashera-Diwali-Navu Varsh Ane Bhaibeej ja Mani Vachak Mitroke Abhinandan !

Anji Maniji Manechchha Shreejibava puri kare edi abhyarthana!

We invite readers to be more and more interactive with the GBF Team by mailing your ideas, views and questions relevant to the community. We, the Bhatias of present generation, have an unwritten responsibility to build a path for the future generations. An obvious question can be – What should be the future of the Bhatia community? Where do we want our younger generation to be?

Should they be Traders or Employees or Industrialists or Entrepreneurs or exported to Muscat-Africa-UK-America? Do we need political power? Do we need more and more IAS amongst our community? Do we need more and more entrepreneurs? We were Kshatriyas and then became Vaishyas; of our total population, what is the percentage that is still Vaishya?

Almost 50% of the total population of Bhatias is concentrated in Mumbai and out of this, majority are still living in Bhatia Sanatoriums and Mahajanwadis. How can their living conditions be improvised? We need a healthy debate and workable solutions for such issues.

Can we think of our community as the one where no family is required to approach any trust? Can we think of our community where every family is living above poverty line? Can we think about our community where members are not divided by the segmentations?

We were the front runners in care for the community and we were most progressive community. Where are we today? How do we bring back our past glory?

We invite Thinkers from our community to participate in the debate program where questions as listed above can be discussed and workable solutions can be drawn up. Those thinkers who wish to participate in the debate are requested to email their views and personal details to the [email protected]

Jay Shreekrishna!

Computer training for all

Page 7

The DreamConnect Computer Education programme provides students from government and corporation schools a chance to get exposure to IT for free, says Sonali Bhatia

It's a computer training programme that seeks to hone other skills as well. The DreamConnect Computer Education Programme looks to give students from Government and Corporation schools a chance to get exposure to information technology, and to impart some presentation skills and enhance social awareness, free of charge.

Besides learning about computers, teenagers develop self-awareness, build their interpersonal and communication skills and are given a grounding in problem solving and decision making. After eighteen sessions spread over three weeks, thirty three young adults proudly make a presentation to an audience at the DreamConnect centre. Pairs have choose various topics, which they have to put across within three to four minutes. Presentations are in English or Kannada or a combination of the two. Using Power Point, students project information on to the screen and give the audience a brief glimpse of subjects that range from the personal (the advantages of honing presentation skills), to the national (the evils of dowry and child labour) to the global (human rights). They talk about industry, agriculture and fundamental rights, and describe the role of various freedom fighters in the struggle for independence. They analyse the need for education and decry superstitious beliefs and practices. One presentation takes us on a quick trip around the world, with the seven wonders.

Insights

There are some interesting insights – in a presentation on 'decision making', Raj enumerates the steps to making a decision — recognising options, prioritising them and taking action, adding succinctly that 'no action is also a decision!' Talking about advantages of industrialisation, Manjula is quick to caution against its drawbacks, too — 'industries should not cause pollution', she says.

As each pair completes the presentation, others applaud heartily — acknowledging not only the skills and knowledge displayed, but the dawn of a new era of computers for all!

Coffee on the WallBy Ajay Jesrani (Hyderabad)

I sat with my friend in a well-known coffee shop in a neighboring town of Venice, the city of lights and water. As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat on an empty table beside us.

He called the waiter and placed his order saying, Two cups of coffee, one of them there on the wall. We heard this order with rather interest and observed that he was served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he left, the waiter pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying A Cup of Coffee.

While we were still there, two other men entered and ordered three cups of coffee, two on the table and one on the wall. They had two cups of coffee but paid for three and left. This time also, the waiter did the same; he pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying, A Cup of Coffee.

It seemed that this gesture was a norm at this place. However, it was something unique and perplexing for us. Since we had nothing to do with the matter, we finished our coffee, paid the bill and left.

After a few days, we again had a chance to go to this coffee shop. While we were enjoying our coffee, a man entered. The way this man was dressed did not match the standard nor the atmosphere of this coffee shop.

Poverty was evident from the looks on his face. As he seated himself, he looked at the wall and said, one cup of coffee from the wall. The waiter served coffee to this man with the customary respect and dignity.

The man had his coffee and left without paying. We were amazed to watch all this when the waiter took off a piece of paper from the wall and threw it in the dust bin. Now it was no surprise for us the matter was very clear. The great respect for the needy shown by the inhabitants of this town welled up our eyes with tears.

Coffee is not a need of our society neither a necessity of life for us. The point to note is that when we take pleasure in any blessing, maybe we also need to think about those people who appreciate that specific blessing as much as we do but they cannot afford to have it.

Note the character of this waiter, who is playing a consistent and generous role to get the communication going between the affording and the needy with a smile on his face.

Ponder upon this man in need. He enters the coffee shop without having to lower his self-esteem he has no need to ask for a free cup of coffee without asking or knowing about the one who is giving this cup of coffee to him he only looked at the wall, placed an order for himself, enjoyed his coffee and left.

When we analyze this story, along with the other characters, we need to remember the role played by the wall that reflects the generosity and care of the dwellers of this town.

Bhatia Cuisine

Shri Jogesh Ashar (centre)(President, Daresalam Bhatia Mahajan)

visited Mumbai on Nov 29, 2012 & met Shri Shirish Anjaria (Right) & Haridas Raigaga.

Pradip Zaveri, a commerce graduate, and involved in plastic processing industry has a wide interest in various forms of art specially Indian paintings, photography and traveling. In the childhood, he was encouraged by his father, Ratansinh Zaveri to take up photography as a hobby and was introduced to the world of Indian paintings by his uncle Haridas Swali.

His stay at Baroda, for many years, provided him ample opportunities to travel to interiors of Rajasthan where wall paintings are found in abundance. So, when he observed wall paintings (known as Kamangari Bhintchitro) in Kutch (Gujarat), his native place, he started photo documenting them.

The first photo exhibition on these wall paintings was held at Kutch museum. This was the beginning of his journey in to the world of mural paintings. This was before the earthquake of year 2001. His work was initially recognized by Bhopal based museum of mankind, the Indira Gandhi Manav Sangrahalaya.

To create awareness about these now extinct art of wall paintings, this museum-sponsored workshop and many photo exhibitions. The Kutch museum at Bhuj also actively supported the cause by holding photo exhibition during a seminar organized by them. This seminar was attended by many curators and the Director General of Musems, India. The exhibition during Ranotsav at Vekaria Ran at Kutch was also organized by Kutch museum. This exhibition was inaugurated by Sri Narendra Modi, Chief Minister of Gujarat.

The Udaipur based West Zone Cultural Centre also recognized the work done by him and provided the sponsorship, to assess the damage occurred to wall paintings in Kutch, due to the earthquake of 2001. This entire documentation was published by them in the year 2010. The book release ceremony was performed by the Governor of Gujarat.

This publication inspired him to document the wall paintings of North and Central Gujarat. These paintings are found in mansions and houses of rich and commoners in many villages and towns. Many Swanminaryan temples and Siva temples are adorned with these wall paintings based on mythological and secular themes. A part of this documentation is recently published by West Zone Cultural centre as “Wall Painting of Charotar”.

Today, many buildings are either renovated or demolished to suit the present needs. The wall paintings are vanishing from the scene and the art of making wall painting has become extinct. The documentation by Pradip Zaveri will go long way to preserve this heritage in the archives of institution like West Zone Culture Centre.

Summary Of Hindu Temples

Across The Globe FROM MOM'S SHELL

Diving in the blue oceans, Feel peace to the soul.But mere touch of your hands, Define love in the heartless lands.

Pearl exists coz of oyster's shell, I exists coz of your shell.Artificially or naturally, high is the need, For life or for death, your mere breath would feed.

Like green are the leaves, And waves are always at ease.You are the greenery of my life, Would dry and die if not destined with your sigh

-- Hemisha
