History of Dainik Deshonnati doesn't mention....

I was going through the search engines ,news and articles, also information on the net and found out that there were missing facts about the Marathi daily newspaper 'Deshonnati' from Akola in Maharashtra, India.
Mr Ranganath Kulkarni was the primary editor of this news paper and after the demise of my Father in 1988 April I took over as the Editor and Managing Director, This was so for the next 3 years till it was sold to 'The present owners'. Not all of it, but the rights of my family and it's shares were parted with.
So the history should read that along with the addition of Mr.Kulkarni as the editor in the beginning, C M Vairale was the next Executive Editor and Managing Director of Deshonnati.Is it not right to give due credit where required?
May truth prevail as always and the truth be in black and white mentioned , where ever and when ever....for it is all there in the archives and in print on all those issues printed in that period.....
Every contribution is important as is every step in the progress of a goal foreseen....

Gossip - vile world

It is but so sad that either failure or jealousy or even simple incapability could lead a human to say anything about his own race without regard or love or compassion.
Some even do it to earn fast bucks ! Irresponsible individuals or even groups and entities spread the Hush word in an evil fashion may be to "get back" or 'even' things out.

Gossip From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossip

Judaism considers gossip spoken without a constructive purpose (known in Hebrew as lashon hara) as a sin. Speaking negatively about people, even if retelling true facts, counts as sinful, as it demeans the dignity of man — both the speaker and the subject of the gossip.
According to Proverbs 18:8: "The words of a gossip are like choice morsels: they go down to a man's innermost parts."

Islam considers backbiting the equivalent of eating the flesh of one's dead brother. Backbiting about somebody harms that person without offering any chance of defence for the victim; just as a dead person cannot mount a defence if one were to eat his flesh. Since Islam has the concept of universal brotherhood, one should treat every other man like one's brother.

Christianity condemns all kinds of gossip. The Epistle to the Romans associates gossips ("backbiters") with a list of sins including sexual immorality and with murder:

But man has made business out of it. WHY ? Are we becoming inhuman? No feeling,compassion,respect,regard,care,nothing???

It is not progress to live off someones Private lives even if the Gossip you spread is the truth.Value each other or else you will only spell doom and bad Karma !

Deserving birth?

Looking back it all seems that I have been truly blessed.Now by looking back I do not just mean ...at my life ! I mean there is such a long queue of have nots behind me that makes me feel blessed!
"One tends to forget" conveniently of course. A blind eye as it is known ,towards what 'You' have received this life from the Almighty.I remember a hoarding put up by the then President of the Society for the handicapped Mr. Vijay Merchant near churchgate ,mumbai...Saying.....alongwith a visual of a boy sitting on a wall crying " I cried because, I had no shoes.....until I saw a Boy without Feet! ",
There are always those who 'Have' those who 'Don't'.....Those who 'Have' do not value "IT "always or even most of the time.....But those who 'Do Not' always treasure "IT".
Learn to thank and enjoy what you 'Have' rather than cry over what you "Don't" Bless yourself and take full advantage and live a life of gratitude !!
Do not waste time in looking at and feeling jealous over what others have, it is illusion."the grass on the other side is always greener (psychologically).
I have learnt it the hard way....so I pass it on.............

"Making puppets out of people"

The 'Idiot Box' as it is called has slowly and steadily started ruling over people's lives.The Visual aid was for getting across better and making things clearer to those who didn't have a percepts or vision.Low imagination led to less understanding and therefore words along with line drawings,then pictures,moving images,films with sound tracks etc.....followed.Man stayed stagnant and the book started to move.....Rock,to paper,to newspaper,till the Internet ....and now both move faster than the other....Man and Machine....from original form to" nano technology"
Who is pulling the strings?Have we become objects in other's controls?Is this question being asked at all?...is so...who is going to give the answers.Is progress properly going to wards a "better" goal?.We are apes surely...Aping each other and the original Ape too!!We are becoming a sight to be observed with great entertainment and enquiry !!So nice of us to call ourselves "idiots" sitting in front of (now a days) Flat picture-like frames calling it the 'State of the art' object in one's living room...for that matter any "room" where there is no 'space to sit a square box in !!
Have we become the squares? and the TV sets watching us staring at ? Or are they the one's watching the 'puppet show' !!??

The sensex...is it real? or are we going on a ride?

Indian economy at it's best.That's what it is.Great potential,better offers,educated players,truer spirit,fabuloue intelligentia,datring businessmen with high Aims!
It is a nice scene which one had never imagined.Things a re happening so fast.It is an extraordinary situation.India> the land of opportunity.!! Suddenly everyone is looking in the direction of the east....and what do they see/ India rising even faster than the Sun !
We Indians are a proud lot in a sense but I as a person, am thinking whether we are really going towards the right end? we need to take a while and look at our foundation,fundamentals and cultural heritage. Do we really need this pace and this progress which is going to bring doomsday nearer?Nature is not being paid heed towards.....we need to tread softly,carefully and cautiously!
Will we survive our pace and enjoy the good LIFE ? Ethics,rationale,logic,reason.....are they flaunted with recklessly?Is the rural and urban disparity being looked at/Is the economic disparity being disturbed ?What are we Humans in India doing?

Suddenly all seems so well !!

I am so wonderfully at peace.......having seen ,lived,enjoyed,suffered,dreamt,received,and so much more in this particular life has been a sweet revealation !! I cannot and will not complain.One has no choice over one's birth and therfore Death too.Logically follows >No control over anything in between too ! Have you an answer ?
Life is a continuos cycle with all parameters set for each individual.Karma is Action ! Your thoughts performed !! Body is the vehicle of the 'Soul'(life)...Science knows What the body is made of and How it performs.Having given all pre-requisites can You put life in it ? Can you decide then who will that Human's parents will be ?>> Interesting isn't it?
Looking for answers and rational discussions.....I feel so well and at peace!

It's time Hillary Clinton is nominated and becomes A President.

The world needs a shake up(shake down) to realise that woman is also as human and as deserving as man.
It has been proven beyond doubt that woman is no less or more but an equal when it comes to "natural existence".The rules of nature are not made by man, but by a force that humans have no control over.I am sure there are predominant and stronger characters as per their constitutional make up but humans are governed without their own will.Destiny and Fate is a reality and the script is already written.We are all subject to circumstance and react to situations.The results are unknown to US but have been predestined.
Desmond Morris, Sigmund Freud,Charles Darwin etc....would interpret life as it is or answer questions and doubts, but to predict a reaction of 'Human" nature is only a shot in the dark: for it can be totally out of Man's logic.
You study and try and analyse but to guarantee a particular result or reaction is very difficult and unsure.I feel that every time something happens, there has to be to it a newer perspective and angle.That's what Life is about. 'Ever changing' and subjective.Change is a 'truth' to be remembered by man,who takes too many things for granted.
All this makes Life so interesting and challenging.Everyday a new day and every moment a new 'light'.

personal belief

I am sure "each to his/her own" is the final truth.No one is equal, and no one can be forced to do and act as someone else wants one to.All men and women are born equal is a natural myth.Nature believes in diversity.Repition is man's(human) way of making things easy.All can't go on like the moon and the stars.Change is the rule of life and 'Life' goes on.If all do and react in the same manner , we will have a problem at hand.All will be predictable and that is what 'Life' isn't.
The human is an intelligent product of nature but not Nature itself or it's creator or commander.Let each literate person know for sure that you can't lead the reigns of the 'Life' cart as per his/her control.One can only understand what one has to go by rather than make things happen in a particular way.
I humbly bow to the creator whoever He/she/It.....What a world !!! and what planning!!! and what execution!!!! Just Unbelievable....just enjoyable and live able!!!
