How to lead a calm and pleasant life? Cardinal rule – FORTY NINE; social systems and individual’s emotions

Since it is individuals who form societies, right balancing of various systems and functions of all societies depends upon the capacity of individuals to balance their emotions in the right way and nurture right feelings. Sustained emotions of one generate feelings and feelings trigger one’s vision about requirements, which in turn create demands. It is these visions and demands of individuals in a society that mold social systems and functions. When social systems and functions are supportive, individuals get calm and pleasant life. It is highly cyclic.

Practice it and make it a habit. Then the nature will make it sustainable by triggering necessary genetic engineering!

Wayanad; everlasting memories of a travel

Wayanad, a northern district of Kerala state (my state) in India is always a passion for our friend Nelson, who has worked there for many years before joining us in Thiruvananthapuram, the State Head Quarters of Kerala. Through his narrations we (the other friends) have also got attracted to the place. Usually every year, we conduct two-three days trekking tour. This time we have decided to select Wayanad.

The fifth day was for field trip and casual discussions; a community building exercise.

Additional Skill Acquisition Programme has been conceived as an effective remedy for this situation. The whole idea is that the students will be given skill training, in addition to their regular academic programme/curriculum, in the crucial sectors as being demanded by the Industry.
