                                                        *********

Friends !!! Spiritually speaking, the Life is a nano sparkling of the Almighty -Supreme Soul. We believe that a Great Almighty is there ,who has given lives to us, nourish us, protect us from each n every danger.
The Almighty has given lives to us & has also bestowed us with many a livelihoods means & measures to live upon....
Now, discussing the current Corona Crisis pandemic across the Globe, peoples lives n livelihoods have been abysmally affected.
Now, we have to focus on our lives & livelihoods very seriously.
A life with out livelihood means is meaning less to live and we have to devise many a new skills to safeguard our livelihoods.

In India, it is now high time for all of us to think, ponder, discuss and discover innovative ideas and applications to leverage our economics on various livelihoods sectors.

A very critical situation has already pounded in Pan India due to the pandemic Corona Virus. Alas! Lives are now more prone to Hungers... Livelihoods have been greatly affected in all most all areas n arenas.
Now - the Headlines Flash : " Modi's Mega Rs.20 Lakh Crore Stimulus Package" ; " PM announces Rs.20 - Trillion Economic Relief Package" ...and so on....
Hence, GoI & State Governments are taking every possible steps n efforts to safe guard the lives and livelihoods of the people.
Article 21 of our constitution guarantees all citizens, the " Right to Life and Livelihood".
The Government is obliged to ensure the protection of both, the lives & livelihoods of  the people. Article 39

Now, we all have to work very hard, so that our livelihoods can be protected ,can yield good results and situations to come back normalcy in every sphere n sector.
Now, Govt. should come forward to make a high level apex body , comprising of Experts from the fields of Planning, Finance, Agriculture, Health, Human Resources, Law etc. to tackle with the  current critical crisis to save the lives and livelihoods of the people.

Coming down to our own State - Odisha , we too have to work very hard to uplift and utilize our State's Resources.

Odisha has had been ravaged by Natural Calamities year after year.
In May 3rd ,2019 - Odisha faced the wrath of " Fani " cyclone. Now, Cyclone "Amphan" is on anvil... Amphan is coming this evening...It is predicted by the Meteorological Department that Cyclone Amphan may hit Odisha and may pound- make a land fall on 20th May.

State Government is all set to make zero casualty, under the stewardship of Shri Naveen Patnaik, Hon'ble CM, Odisha.

Friends...each and every life is valuable; so as every Livelihood means is noble. No work is to be regarded lowly act. Every work has its own diginity.
It is said that Lord SriKrishna was mowing grass to feed the horses, during MahaBharat war times.

Therefore, Friends... Come forward...now the Clarion Call is : " Each for All, All for Each." Let us save , safeguard & nourish Lives & Livelihoods with innovative ideas, skills and ofcourse more speedily...

    HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
************************
     

 Friends, Today is the most pious day, the Mother's Day.
We in India, USA, Canada, Belgium, Bhutan, Bangaladesh, Pakistan, Finland, Hong Kong, Iceland, Japan and other countries world over celebrate Mother's Day on 2nd Sunday of May , every year. In some other countries, such as Angola, Hungary, Romania, Spain- Mother's Day is observed on First Sunday of May annually.
Other countries, such as Afghanistan, Armenia, Russia do not celebrate a special Mother's Day ; these countries observe honouring women on 8th March, annually -
the International Women's Day.
Going back to the history of observances of Mother's Day, it dates back to 1600AD, when the officials and servants of Royal Families of England went on vacation to their villages and native places to meet their mothers , during the months of March to May, every year. It was also called " Mothering Sunday".
The first official Mother's Day was celebrated at St. Andrew's Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia on 10 th May, 1908 at the arduous initiatives of Anna Jarvis in America.

(Anna Jarvis)

     The American activist Anna Jarvis is regarded as the founder of Mother's Day in USA.  On this Mother's Day, people honour their Mothers, motherhood and maternal 

bonds.                                                                 

      In Hindu traditions, Mother's Day is celebrated as "Mata Tirtha Aunshi",  i.e. Mother Pilgrimage Fortnight. It is being observed in Nepal every year on Baishakh Amavasya. The festival of " Ullambana" is celebrated as Mother's Day in Buddhist Communities. There is no specific day marked for Mother's Day in Islam. However, the Quran teaches that the children should give priority to loving their Mothers.  In Churches, the Christians pray Mother virgin Mary.   So, Friends! such few are  the events of celebration of Mother's Day in different faiths in different ways in different countries.                                          

   Yes, Friends! while browsing the net in           patch.com ,  I came across  these     wonderful  lines narrating the virtues of Mother .

M - Million things she gave me

             O - Only that she's growing old        .                   

               T- Tears she shed to save me                          

    H- Her Heart of purest gold              

        E -  Eyes of her , with love light            

R - Right & Right, she will shining always be ... 

Friends,we know the deep love, likingness, cares, nourishments of Maa Yashoda for Sri Krishna, Maa Kausalya for Sri Rama, Maa Seeta for Lav & Kusha and so on. 

Let us pay respects to our Mothers to seek their Blessings.

A Prose - Poetry composition on Corona
                          *****

 Fie! Corona...Fie..Fie.. You
             *********


      

Fie ! Corona on you , Fie!! Corona to you ,
You are the non-sense, Enemy No.One,
 You are the super spreading virus,
Evilest Epidemic - for the Humanity on the Earth ,
We will never forget & forgive you.

Alas! Corona...Alas!! Alas!!
 You have affected crores of lives across the Globe,
Millions innocent people have died their pre-mature deaths...
What a mega plight, what  sordid sights ?
Cruel, Cruelling, Devastating, Destroyed Environment...

Trump remarked, "Corona, you are the invisible Enemy No.1,
And also added- " China has created the Corona,bio weapon in the Lab."
 Xi Jinping retorted ," China has not not created the virus Corona; it has affected our peoples too".

India PM- Modijee took to tasks...
Proclaimed Lock down, Shutdown- many a measures, many a guide lines,
 For checking, controlling the Corona Chain...

Corona Virus Versus Corona Warriors ,

Still the fightings going on...Pan India...

 Odisha CM, Naveenjee too...
 Encountering Corona to eradicate  from the State...
Subrato Bagchi, Corona IEC chief & the team... untiringly works...
to defend Corona...to wipe out Corona from the State.

 Oh,Lord Shiva, Mahakaal Bhutnath -
You - the Divine Healer, You the Supreme;
 The whole world seeks Thy refuge,
 Oh, our Lord 🙏... it has been already delayed,
 Destroy the Deadliest Corona virus at the earliest ...
