கனவில் கிடைத்த உத்தரவு

மஹா பெரியவா ஸித்தி அடைந்த பிறகும் அருள் பாலித்த அற்புதமான நிகழ்ச்சி!

மஹா பெரியவாளுடன் காஞ்சியில் தங்கி மஹானின் தேவைகளை மிகவும் சிரத்தையாகவே கவனித்துக் கொண்டு இருந்தவர் மேச்சேரி பட்டு சாஸ்திரி. சாஸ்திரி மெத்தப் படித்த வித்வானான தனது வித்வத்தன்மையை வெளிக்காட்ட மாட்டார். அவ்வப்போது மஹான் அவரைப் பல கைங்கர்யங்களுக்கு உபயோகப் படுத்திக் கொள்வதுண்டு. வருடா வருடம் மாம்பலத்திலுள்ள அயோத்தியா மண்டபத்தை மூன்று நான்கு நாட்கள், ஏன் ஒரு வாரமே ஆக்ரமித்து, அங்கே மஹானின் ஜெயந்தியை மிகவும் விமரிசையாகக் கொண்டாடுவார்.

இவருக்கேற்ற மகன் மௌலி. மஹானின் கைங்கர்யத்தில் தந்தை கொஞ்சம் என்றால் மகன் அவருக்கு ஒரு படி மேலே. இதில் என்ன குறை என்றால் இவர்களது ஆசையை நிறைவேற்றிக் கொள்ளும் அளவுக்கு அவர்களிடம் பொருள் வசதி இல்லை. யாரோ சிலர் அவ்வப்போது உதவும் தொகை போதுமானதாக இருக்காது.

வீட்டில் உள்ள பெண்களின் நகை, கடன் என்று பல வகைகளில் பணத்தைச் சேர்த்து மஹானின் ஜெயந்தியை மிகவும் விமர்சையாக நடத்தி வருவார்கள். ஒரு வருடம் சாஸ்திரியாருக்கு ஒர் ஆசை. மஹானின் திருவுருவத்தை சிலையாக வடித்து வைத்துப் பூஜை செய்ய வேண்டும்! அவர் ஏற்கனவே இப்படி இரு சிலைகளை சேலத்தில் பக்தர்கள் வீட்டில் பார்த்திருக்கிறார& #3021;!

மனதில் எண்ணம் தோன்றியவுடன் அதை உடனே செயலாக்கினார். இவருக்கென்று ஸ்வாமிமலையில் ஒரு ஸ்தபதி கிடைத்தார். இருவர் எண்ணங்களும் ஒன்றாகவே, மஹான் சிலையை தத்ரூபமாக உருவாக்கினார். குறித்த காலத்திற்கு முன்பே சிலை வந்து விட்டதால் பட்டு சாஸ்திரி பணத்திற்கு ஏற்பாடு செய்திருக்கவில்லை. ஜெயந்திக்கான செலவு அபரிமிதமாக இருந்தது. சிலையைக் கொண்டு வந்து கொடுத்த ஸ்தபதிக்கு என்ன கஷ்டமோ, “பணத்தைப் பெற்றுக் கொண்டே ஊருக்குப் போகிறேன்” என்று அங்கேயே தங்கி விட்டார்.

சாஸ்திரிகளும் அவரது மகனும் கேட்காத இடம் பாக்கி இல்லை. தொகை என்னவோ வெறும் ஆறாயிரம் ரூபாய் தான். ஏற்கனவே நன்கொடை வழங்கியவர்களை மீண்டும் அணுக முடியாது. புதிதாக யாரும் தர முன் வரவில்லை. இப்படியெல்லாம் சோதனை வருகிறதே என்று தந்தையும் மகனும் கவலைப் பட்டுக் கொண்டிருந்தனர்.

இவர்கள் படும் பாடு, எல்லாம் தெரிந்த மஹானுக்குத் தெரியாதா என்ன?

அப்போது கடம் விநாயகராம் அமெரிக்காவிலே இருந்தார். அங்கே அவர் பல கச்சேரிகளில் கலந்து கொண்டிருந்தார். குறிப்பிட்ட தினத்தன்று அவரது கனவில் தோன்றிய மஹான், அவரை சென்னையில் உள்ள அவர் மகன் மூலமாக பட்டு சாஸ்திரிக்கு ஆறாயிரம் ரூபாயைக் கொடுக்கும்படி சொன்னார்.

இது கனவு தானே என்று கடம் மாஸ்டர் தொடர்ந்து தூங்க ஆரம்பித்தார். அடுத்த தடவை இவரை யாரோ தொட்டு எழுப்பியது போன்ற உணர்வுகளுடன் அதே கனவு.

இது மஹானின் உத்தரவு தான் என்று புரிந்து கொண்ட கடம் மாஸ்டர், உடனே சென்னையில் இருந்த மகனிடம் தகவல் சொல்லிவிட அன்றே பணம் பட்டு சாஸ்திரியின் கைக்கு வந்துவிட்டது. எப்படிப்பட்ட அற்புதம்!

தன் சிலை செய்த கூலியை மஹானே கொடுத்து உதவியிருக்கிறார். வாய் ஓயாமல் பட்டு சாஸ்திரி இந்த மகத்தான உதவியை அன்று பூராவும் அயோத்தியா மண்டபத்திற்கு வந்தவர்களுக்கெல்ல& #3006;ம் தெரிவித்துக் கொண்டு இருந்தார்.

நாம் நல்ல நிலையில் இருக்கிறோம். நம் உதவி பெறுபவர் நம்மை விட தாழ்ச்சியாக இருக்கிறார், ‘நாம் கருணை காட்டுகின்றோம்’ என்று நினைக்கும்போதே, நாம் செய்யும் – செய்கிற உபகாரம் அசுத்தமாகிவிடுகிற& #2980;ு. உபகாரம் செய்வதன் பலனாக நமக்கு எளிமை, அடக்கம், அஹங்காரம் இல்லாமை ஆகியவை உண்டாக வேண்டும்.

Apple Computers….A Look at iPad mini 2012 alongwith apple1 1976 !!!!

Natarajan1 Comment

 Apple products are admired for their sheer designs. By designs it means everything from exterior looks that catch yours eye balls to interior hardware that gives joys of a superbike ride. As all the nice things come with the antecedent stories that tell about their evolution; Apple’s designs are no exception.

Apple I: 1976

 

It was in the spring of 1976 that Apple released the Apple I, and it is the first product to come out of their company housed in a garage. This personal computer was designed and hand built by Steve Wozniak. The project was financed by Steve Jobs by selling his VW van and Wozniak, by selling his HP-65 calculator. It was demonstrated in July 1976 at the Homebrew Computer Club in Palo Alto, California.

 
Unlike other hobbyist computers of its day, which were sold as kits, the Apple I was a fully assembled circuit board containing about 60+ chips. The Apple I’s built-in computer terminal circuitry was distinctive— all one needed was a keyboard and an inexpensive television set. This made the Apple I an innovative machine for its day.

 


“The evolution of the Apple Mac computers is a timeline of Silicon Valley,” says Silicon Valley graphic designer Steve Yamaguma of Design2Market.

 iPad: 2010

 
The first iPad was released on April 3, 2010, and it loudly declared Apple’s design powers. The hardware design of the iPad re-introduced a form factor that had labored to become mainstream, but this time Apple’s timing couldn’t have been better. Mobile computing was fast gaining in popularity. The clean, elegant look of the iPad made rival netbooks look cheap and boring, which quickly led to their demise.

 
“The iPad challenged our traditional way of work and play and opened up a new realm of possibilities in how we live our daily lives,” says Yamaguma.

 
Siri: 2011

 
Siri is an application which acts as intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator that can recognize natural language. This software product from Apple is in this list for its “design” represents something bigger to Apple’s image and the future of computers.

 

“The pursuit of technology into the future will render technology ubiquitous and invisible,” says Yamaguma.

 
 iPad Mini: 2012

 
iPad mini was announced on October 23, 2012 and is a mini version of Apple’s popular iPad. This device offers Apple’s design and expertise in a cheaper way.

Atlanta…Busiest Airport in The World …..

NatarajanLeave a comment
Delta Air Lines

Atlanta is home to one of the world’s largest airlines, Delta Air Lines. (Barry Williams/Getty)

One might expect the world’s busiest airport to be located in New York or London or Beijing, but the distinction actually belongs to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, located in the southern US city of Atlanta, Georgia. No matter which way you calculate it, Hartsfield-Jackson has been the world’s busiest since 1998. Not only does it attract more travellers than any other airport in the world (with about 92.4 million passengers passing through in 2011, the last full year on record), it also manages more aircraft movements (that is, more takeoffs and landings) than any airport in the world – with about950,000 in 2010, also the last year on record.

All of this begs the question, why is Atlanta the busiest hub for air travel in the world?

The Delta factor
Atlanta is home to one of the world’s largest airlines. Delta Air Lines was founded in the city of Macon, Georgia (originally as a crop-dusting company called Huff Daland Dusters) and later moved its headquarters about 85 miles north to Atlanta in 1941 (after running its first passenger flights under the name Delta Air Service in 1929).

Until 2012, Delta held the record for most annual traffic – measured by “revenue passenger miles” (RPM) – of any airline in the world. The metric of RPMs takes into account both the number of passengers carried and the distances an airline flew during a given year. In 2012 though, Delta’s RPM was beaten by United Airlines, which had grown in size following the 2010 merger between United and Continental Airlines.

So it makes sense, then, that Chicago, home to United’s headquarters, hosts the world’s second busiest airport as measured by aircraft movements – with 882,627 in 2010 – and the world’s fourth busiest as measured by sheer passenger numbers – with 66.6 million passengers in 2011. (The second and third busiest by number of passengers in 2011 are Beijing Capital International Airport, with 77.4 million and London Heathrow Airport with 69.4 million)

Hartsfield-Jackson serves 225 destinations in 51 countries, receives more than 250,000 passengers a day, and sees nearly 2,500 arrivals and departures per day. Out of this, Delta runs about 1,000 flights daily, serving more than 200 destinations.

The location
According to data collected by Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, Atlanta is located within a two-hour flight of 80% of the US population, making the city a major port of entry into the US and a logical stopover for travel within the expansive country.

Hartsfield-Jackson is also the only airport located in Atlanta and by far the biggest airport in Georgia. Most other major hub cities, such as New York, split traffic between two or more major airports. The nearest major airport to Hartsfield-Jackson, is 250 miles northwest, in Nashville, Tennessee.

The city
Hartsfield-Jackson also happens to be located in a city that attracts its fair share of travellers. Atlanta has been ranked the seventh most visited city for business travel in the US – unsurprising, since it is home to the headquarters of 10 Fortune 500 companies, including Coca-Cola, Home Depot (a massive home improvement retailer), UPS (the United Parcel Service) and, of course, Delta Air Lines.

For non-business visitors, Atlanta is also home to perhaps the world’s largest aquarium, where visitors can find the biggest fish on Earth. Rivalled only by the new SEA Aquarium in Singapore (which also calls itself the world’s largest), the Georgia Aquarium holds more than 8 million gallons of water and provides habitat to around 120,000 animals, according to aquarium statistics.

Atlanta’s big companies also offer behind-the-scenes tours popular with all kinds of travellers. Coca Cola offers an attraction called The World of Coca-Cola, a sort of museum taking tourists into the history of one of the planet’s most consumed beverages. CNN, the 24-hour cable news channel available around the world, has a popular Inside CNN Studio Tour.

If you find yourself enduring the all-too-common layover in Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Jaunted offers five ideas for passing the time – including renting out a room at the airport’s unique Minute Suites, which let you rent out a private room by the hour or for the night in Terminal B, and dining at the upscale “southernnational” joint One Flew South, a restaurant in Terminal E incorporating southern ingredients and techniques to international cuisine fit for the typical Hartsfield traveller.

Go to CHURCH…

One Sunday morning, a mother went in to wake her son and tell him it was time to
get ready for church, to which he replied, “I’m not going.”
“Why not?” she asked.
I’ll give you two good reasons,” he said. “(1), they don’t like me, and (2), I don’t like them.”
His mother replied, “I’ll give you two good reasons why you SHOULD go to church:
(1) You’re 59 years old, and (2) you’re the pastor!”
===================================================
The Usher

An elderly woman walked into the local country church.
The friendly usher greeted her at the door and helped her up the flight of steps.
“Where would you like to sit?” he asked politely.
“The front row, please,” she answered.
“You really don’t want to do that,” the usher said. “The pastor is really boring.”
“Do you happen to know who I am?” the woman inquired.
“No,” he said.
“I’m the pastor’s mother,” she replied indignantly.
“Do you know who I am?” he asked.
“No,” she said.
“Good,” he answered.
=====================================================
The Best Way To Pray

A priest, a minister and a guru sat discussing the best positions for prayer,
while a telephone repairman worked nearby.
“Kneeling is definitely the best way to pray,” the priest said.
“No,” said the minister. “I get the best results standing with my hands
outstretched to Heaven.”
“You’re both wrong,” the guru said. “The most effective prayer position
is lying down on the floor.”
The repairman could contain himself no longer.
“Hey, fellas,” he interrupted.
“The best prayin’ I ever did was when I was hangin’ upside down from a
telephone pole.”
====================================================
The Twenty and the One

A well-worn one-dollar bill and a similarly distressed twenty-dollar bill
arrived at a Federal Reserve Bank to be retired.
As they moved along the conveyor belt to be burned, they struck up a conversation.
The twenty-dollar bill reminisced about its travels all over the country.
“I’ve had a pretty good life,” the twenty proclaimed.
“Why I’ve been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City , the finest restaurants ln New York , performances on Broadway, and even a cruise to the Caribbean .”
“Wow!” said the one-dollar bill. “You’ve really had an exciting life!”
“So, tell me,” says the twenty, “where have you been throughout your lifetime?”
The one dollar bill replies, “Oh, I’ve been to the Methodist Church , the Baptist Church,
the Lutheran Church .”
The twenty-dollar bill interrupts, “What’s a church?”
=============================================

NatarajanLeave a comment

Rashmi Parvathi K, 17, a girl from Puttur in Karnataka, is all set to go to the U.S. with her innovative science project that may lead to a discovery in medicine.

Rashmi is the daughter of farmer Ravishankar K from Nekkila village. The girl developed a technology to create salt with medicinal properties from coconut palm petiole (the stalk that attaches the leaf to the stem), reported Vinobha KT for TNN. The organic salt can be used as a medicine for various skin ailments due to its antimicrobial properties.

Her project was chosen for the prestigious International Science Project Competition of International Sustainable World Energy Engineering Environment Project Olympiad (ISWEEP) in Houston, Texas from May 8. Rashmi is among four students selected from India.

Her father was quoted by TOI saying the project titled ‘Salt from Coconut Palm Petiole’ is a remedy for skin ailments developed by Rashmi with the guidance of her mentor Shankara Bhat Badanaje. It also won her the gold medal and first grand award at the Indian Science and Engineering Fair – Puttur micro fair. He added that “The project was selected for a national competition and then she qualified for the international event.”

Rashmi has also earlier won national honors by producing antidandruff shampoo using herbs and got the second rank in SSLC. The master mind has earlier presented five science projects at the IRIS national competitions and has attended numerous science camps and won almost a dozen prizes at national and state level.

Rashmi Parvathi said, “My ambition is to become a scientist.”

Google”s $82 Million Airport !!!

NatarajanLeave a comment

Google’s grip on Silicon Valley is about to stretch even further.
The search giant has proposed building an $82 million private airport for executive travel at Mineta San Jose International Airport, reports the local SF Bay Area CBS affiliate.
There is a very strong chance the offer will be accepted.
The 29 acre airport proposal is facilitated by Signature, a San Jose-based company that currently handles Google’s private jets.
Signature’s proposal will develop the west side of the airport under a 50-year lease.
Further specifics detail a 17,000-square-foot terminal, a 33,000-square-foot building for offices and retail shops, a 66,000-square-foot hangar, 18.5 acres for aircraft parking, and a 300-space car parking lot, according to NBC Bay Area.
William Sherry, the San Jose director of Aviation, along with four other evaluators gave Signature’s plan a 991 out of 1,000 rating. Officials liked the plan because of the likelihood to create jobs and additional revenues for the airport and the city’s General Fund.

The Picture of Son….

Natarajan1 Comment

A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They would often sit together and admire the great works of art..

When the Vietnamconflict broke out, the son went to war. He was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son.

About a month later, just before Christmas,

There was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands..

He said, ‘Sir, you don’t know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly… He often talked about you, and your love for art.’ The young man held out this package. ‘I know this isn’t much. I’m not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this.’

The father

Opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man. He stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes that his own eyes welled up with tears. He thanked the young man and offered to pay him for the picture.. ‘Oh, no sir, I could never repay what your son did for me. It’s a gift.’

The father hung the portrait over his mantle. Every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected.

The man died a few months later. There was to be a great auction of his paintings. Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and having an opportunity to purchase one for their collection.

On the platform sat the painting of the son. The auctioneer pounded his gavel. ‘We will start the bidding with this picture of the son. Who will bid for this picture?’

There was silence…

Then a voice in the back of the room shouted, ‘We want to see the famous paintings. Skip this one.’

But the auctioneer persisted. ‘Will somebody bid for this painting? Who will start the bidding? $100, $200?’

Another voice angrily. ‘We didn’t come to see this painting. We came to see the Van Gogh’s, the Rembrandts. Get on with the Real bids!’

But still the auctioneer continued. ‘The son! The son! Who’ll take the son?’

Finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. It was the longtime gardener of the man and his son. ‘I’ll give $10 for the painting…’ Being a poor man, it was all he could afford.

‘We have $10, who will bid $20?’

‘Give it to him for $10. Let’s see the masters.’

The crowd was becoming angry. They didn’t want the picture of the son.

They wanted the more worthy investments for their collections.

The auctioneer pounded the gavel.. ‘Going once, twice, SOLD for $10!’

A man sitting on the second row shouted, ‘Now let’s get on with the collection!’

The auctioneer laid down his gavel. ‘I’m sorry, the auction is over.’

‘What about the paintings?’

‘I am sorry. When I was called to conduct this auction, I was told of a secret stipulation in the will… I was not allowed to reveal that stipulation until this time. Only the painting of the son would be auctioned. Whoever bought that painting would inherit the entire estate, including the paintings.

The man who took the son gets everything!’

Money is not EVERYTHING.

No One Can Hurt Us Without Our Consent…

NatarajanLeave a comment

On his First Day in office as President Abraham Lincoln entered to give His Inaugural Address, One Man stood up, he was a Rich Aristocrat.

He Said,

“Mr Lincoln, You Should Not Forget That Your Father Used to make Shoes for My Family.”
And the Whole Senate Laughed, They thought they had Made a Fool of Lincoln.
But Certain People Are Made Of A Totally Different Mettle.

Lincoln Looked At The Man Directly In the Eyes And Said,
“Sir, I Know That My father Used To Make Shoes For Your Family, And There Will Be Many Others Here,
Because He made Shoes The Way Nobody Else Can.
He Was A Creator. His Shoes Were Not Just Shoes
He Poured His Whole Soul Into Them.
I Want To Ask You,
Have You Any Complaint??
Because I Know How To Make Shoes Myself.
If You Have Any Complaint I Can Make You Another Pair Of Shoes.
But As Far As I Know, Nobody Has Ever Complained About My Father’s Shoes. He Was A Genius,
A Great Creator
And
I am Proud Of My Father.
The Whole Senate Was Struck Dumb.
They Could Not Understand What Kind Of Man Abraham Lincoln Was.
He Was Proud Because His Father Did His Job So Well That Not Even A Single Complaint Had Ever Been Heard.

Remember……
No One Can Hurt Us Without Our Consent.

It is Not What Happens to us That Hurts Us.
It Is Our Response That Hurts Us.

Right Man For the Right Job!!!!!

History ….A Quick Look …..an inspirational story …

Sunday, December 7th, 1941–Admiral Chester Nimitz was attending a
concert in Washington, D.C. He was paged and told there was a phone
call for him. When he answered the phone, it was President Franklin
Delano Roosevelt on the phone. He told Admiral Nimitz that he (Nimitz)
would now be the Commander of the Pacific Fleet.

Admiral Nimitz flew to Hawaii to assume command of the Pacific Fleet.
He landed at Pearl Harbor on Christmas Eve, 1941. There was such a
spirit of despair, dejection and defeat–you would have thought the
Japanese had already won the war. On Christmas Day, 1941, Adm. Nimitz
was given a boat tour of the destruction wrought on Pearl Harbor by
the Japanese. Big sunken battleships and navy vessels cluttered the
waters everywhere you looked.

As the tour boat returned to dock, the young helmsman of the boat
asked, “Well Admiral, what do you think after seeing all this
destruction?” Admiral Nimitz’s reply shocked everyone within the sound
of his voice.

Admiral Nimitz said, “The Japanese made three of the biggest mistakes
an attack force could ever make or God was taking care of America.
Which do you think it was?”

Shocked and surprised, the young helmsman asked, “What do mean by
saying the Japanese made the three biggest mistakes an attack force
ever made?” Nimitz explained:

Mistake number one: The Japanese attacked on Sunday morning. Nine out
of every ten crewmen of those ships were ashore on leave. If those
same ships had been lured to sea and been sunk–we would have lost
38,000 men instead of 3,800.

Mistake number two: When the Japanese saw all those battleships lined
in a row, they got so carried away sinking those battleships, they
never once bombed our dry docks opposite those ships. If they had
destroyed our dry docks, we would have had to tow every one of those
ships to America to be repaired. As it is now, the ships are in
shallow water and can be raised. One tug can pull them over to the dry
docks, and we can have them repaired and at sea by the time we could
have towed them to America . And I already have crews ashore anxious
to man those ships.

Mistake number three: Every drop of fuel in the Pacific theater of war
is in top of the ground storage tanks five miles away over that hill.
One attack plane could have strafed those tanks and destroyed our fuel
supply. That’s why I say the Japanese made three of the biggest
mistakes an attack force could make or God was taking care of America
.
Admiral Nimitz was able to see a silver lining in that situation and circumstance
where everyone else saw only despair and defeat.

President Roosevelt had chosen the right man for the right job.
