Anybody or everybody who passes our way throws some nonsense into our head – thoughts of superstitions, fashions, worry, anger and many other things. We have no choice about what enters our mind but we have the choice to take what we want and throw out from the mind, what we don’t like. It is said, thoughts that we pick up, make a strong dwelling in our head piece. Accordingly, we develop certain values, certain conclusions that direct our life and goal; for example: Adolph Hitler valued the superiority of the German race and sought power above everything else, and that value created negative thoughts in him. His actions brought immeasurable destruction and death to millions, including a shameful end to his own life. It shows that as we think, we become. It is “Mann ki Baat” or “Mann ki Khel”.

The swift glance of the public mind sees that Citizenship Amendment Act; National Register of Citizens and National Population Register will arrive in our multi-cultural democracy sooner or later.
A little bird whispers in my ears that gossip monger’s chats are pivoted around updates of all family matters or to catch up with the latest domestic gossip in town. Assorted uncles and aunts indulge in pleasure-seeking pursuits; pleasure-centric prattle over loose talk; say a newly married woman overate at dinner, says she is feeling sick, and the news spreads promptly that she is pregnant. A loud and heated argument takes place between a couple behind closed doors, and the nosy neighbour announces confidently that the couple is heading for a major split. We should be very cautious while indulging in gossip. It is best not to jump to conclusions based on half truths and without ascertaining the real facts, as even innocent hear says can sometimes cause untold confusion.
Both pure and impure thoughts are powerful tools. The mind can be a hell or heaven according to one’s way of thinking. According to the old adage, ‘sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a consequence; sow a consequence, reap a character; sow a character and reap a destiny’.
