The concept of ¿Co-operation¿ is considered a golden mean between capitalism and socialism. In a capitalist system profit earning is the primary motive and the surplus goes to organizers and capitalists. In a socialist system, on the other hand, the individual is subordinated to the state, and the surplus is utilized for the welfare of the society as a whole. In a co-operative set up none of the factors of production is allowed to get an upper hand over the other. The surplus, if any, is distributed among all the factors of production in a fair proportion. Further, a co-operative society is an embodiment of complete amalgamation of interest of its workers, employers, consumers and producers. This harmonization of interests leads to mutually beneficial policies in a private enterprise; the institutions close their doors to new members after the business gets going, whereas a co-operative society keeps its doors always open to qualified persons. Co-operatives are in a better position than the public and private enterprises, to know the grievances of their customers and in finding a method to redress those grievances (1).

I can never be successful defeating him without your help.¿SriRama bowed down to Shiva after saying this. ¿Jai Shankara! Jai

Vivekananda's prayer to Kali at Dakshineswar (1884) is the event in which Narendranath Datta (the pre-monastic name of Vivekananda), following the suggestion of Ramakrishna, went to the Kali temple of Dakshineswar with the intention to pray for financial welfare, but ultimately prayed for pure knowledge, devotion and renunciation. This event has been a subject of scholarly studies and is considered as a significant event in the life of Vivekananda, who initially revolted against idol-worship but now accepted and prayed before an idol of Kali. According to B. R. Kishore, "this incident added a new dimension to Narendra's devotion and knowledge".After making three attempts to seek a blessing to remove his financial problems from mother goddess Kali, he came out with the divine statement: ¿Mother, I Want Nothing But Knowledge and Devotion!One day Narendra requested Ramakrishna to pray to goddess Kali, the Divine Mother, for some financial welfare, which was the immediate need of his family. Ramakrishna listened to his request and told him that day was a Tuesday, an "auspicious day", asked him to go to the temple in the evening and pray it himselfRamarkishna also told Narendra

Murugan is popularly worshipped in Southern India, especially in the Indian State of Tamilnadu. He is often referred to as Tamil Kadavul, which means The Lord of the Tamil people. He is considered to be the primary deity of the Kaumaram sect of Hinduism. Although this sect is primarily located in the Tamil region, there are also members in Sri Lanka and Malaysia.The handsome Kartikeya is the commander of the army of Devas (Indian deities) and he is represented with six heads, enabling him to see in all directions at once. This means he can see any oncoming attack of war. He also has 12 hands and rides a peacock.Newlyweds Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi lived together at Mount Gandhamadana. His vehicle is a peacock, a pious bird that grips with its feet a serpent, which symbolizes Ego and desires of people. Peacock represents destroyer of harmful habits and conqueror of sensual desires. Kartikeya are being worshipped along and during Durga Puja. Lord Kartik is primarily worshipped among those who intend to have a son.

Bhagavad Gita was Swami Vivekananda's lifelong companion. In 1888, Vivekananda began his journey as a wandering monk. Between 1888 to 1893, he travelled to many Indian states and went to almost all parts of the country. In that period, he had almost nothing with him, other than a kamandalu and two books ¿ a copy of Imitation of the Christ and the second book was Bhagavad Gita. In this article, we'll make a collection of Swami Vivekananda's quotes, comments and opinions on Bhagavad Gita. Ramakrishnäs teaching ¿ Gita teaches to become unselfish and tyagi Ramakrishna, the master of Swami Vivekananda, used to say that one could understand the essential meaning of Gita by repeating the word several times "Gita, Gita Gita Gita...", and when it is done, one finds (her/him)self uttering "ta-Gi ta-Gi ta-Gi...". The word "tag/tyag" (Bengali: ¿¿¿¿¿, "¿¿" ¿¿¿¿) means "renounce" or "one who renounces everything for God." Ramakrishna told, Gita teaches us to become unselfish and tyagi. Swami vivekanandäs quotes and comments on Bhagavad Gita Ay, if there is anything in the Gita that I like, it is these two verses, coming out strong as the very gist, the very essence, of Krishna's teaching

A great Bhakta (Hanuman) once said when asked what day of the month it was, "God is my eternal date, no other date I care for." As on the one hand Hanuman represent the ideal of service, so on the other hand he represents leonine courage, striking the whole world with awe. He has not the least hesitation in sacrificing his life for the good of Rama. A supreme indifference to everything except the service of Rama, even to the attainment of the status of Brahma and Shiva, the great World - gods! Only the carrying out of Shri Rama's best is the one vow of this life! Such whole - hearted devotion is wanted. Eka-Nishtha or devotion to one ideal is absolutely necessary for the beginner in the practice of religious devotion. He must say with Hanuman in the Râmâyana, "Though I know that the Lord of Shri and the Lord of Jânaki are both manifestations of the same Supreme Being, yet my all in all is the lotus-eyed Râma." Hanuman, the best of the monkeys, became the most faithful servant of Rama and helped him in rescuing Sita. Hanuman, the devotee of Rama, summed up his philosophy in these words: When I identify myself with the body, O Lord, I am Thy creature, eternally separate from Thee.

India, officially the Republic of India (Bh¿rat Gäar¿jya), is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country (with over 1.2 billion people), and the most populous democracy in the world. It is bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the southwest, and the Bay of Bengal on the southeast. It shares land borders with Pakistan to the west; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the northeast; and Myanmar (Burma) and Bangladesh to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India is in the vicinity of Sri Lanka and the Maldives. India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with Thailand and Indonesia. The Indian subcontinent was home to the urban Indus Valley Civilisation of the 3rd millennium BCE. In the following millennium, the oldest scriptures associated with Hinduism began to be composed. Social stratification, based on caste, emerged in the first millennium BCE, and Buddhism and Jainism arose. Early political consolidations took place under the Maurya and Gupta empires; the later peninsular Middle Kingdoms influenced cultures as far as southeast Asia.

I personally do not understand why religion should be given this vast, expansive jurisdiction, so as to cover the whole of life and to prevent the legislature from encroaching upon that field. After all, what are we having this liberty for? We are having this liberty in order to reform our social system, which is so full of inequities, discriminations and other things, which conflict with our fundamental rights Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (14 April 1891 ¿ 6 December 1956), popularly known as Baba Saheb, was an Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer who inspired the Dalit Buddhist Movement and campaigned against social discrimination against Untouchables (Dalits), while also supporting the rights of women and labour. He was Independent India's first law minister and the principal architect of the Constitution of India. Ambedkar was a prolific student, earning doctorates in economics from both Columbia University and the London School of Economics, and gained a reputation as a scholar for his research in law, economics and political science. In his early career he was an economist, professor, and lawyer. His later life was marked by his political activities; he became

The Gita considers the world to be transient, all bodies and matter as impermanent. Everything that constitutes prakriti (nature, matter) is process driven and has a finite existence. It is born, grows, matures, decays and dies. It considers this transient reality as Maya. Like, the Upanishads the Gita focuses on what it considers as Real in this world of change, impermanence and infinitude. To build its theological framework about the world, the text relies on the theories found in Samkhya and Vedanta schools of Hinduism. The Upanishads developed the equation "Atman = Brahman", states Fowler, and this belief is central to the Gita.This equation is, however, interpreted in a number of ways by different sub-schools of Vedanta. In the Gita, the soul of each human being is considered to be identical to every other human being and all beings, but it "does not support an identity with the Brahman", according to Fowler. The Gita teaches several spiritual paths ¿ jnana, bhakti and karma ¿ to the divine. However, states Fowler, it "does not raise any of these to a status that excludes the others. The theme that unites these paths in the Gita is "inner renunciation".

Venkateswara literally means "Lord of Venkata". The word is a combination of the words Venkata (the name of a hill in Andhra Pradesh) and isvara ("Lord").

Human rights are the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world, from birth until death. They apply regardless of where you are from, what you believe or how you choose to live your life.They can never be taken away, although they can sometimes be restricted ¿ for example if a person breaks the law, or in the interests of national security.These basic rights are based on shared values like dignity, fairness, equality, respect and independence. These values are defined and protected by law. In Britain our human rights are protected by the Human Rights Act 1998.Sometimes talking about our rights can be difficult, but it doesn¿t have to be. We¿ve been speaking to children across the country asking them about human rights and receiving simple, honest and funny answers. The majority of schools we spoke to as part of this project belong to Unicef¿s Rights Respecting Schools network. Unicef works with schools in the UK to create safe and inspiring places to learn where children are respected, their talents nurtured and and they are able to thrive

Salutations to Lord Rama, who is an Avatara of Vishnu, who is measureless, who is of the nature of Pure Consciousness Bliss, who is the consort of Sita, Master of Sri Hanuman, and the Lord of the three worlds, who took his birth at his own will in order to establish righteousness, destroy the wicked and to protect his devotees.Rama Navami or the Birthday of Lord Rama falls on the 9th day of the bright fortnight of the month of Chaitra (March April).

He was peerless on earth. He was free from malice. He was gentle and the protector of the people. He always addressed the people in gentle words. He never used any harsh words even when somebody provoked him. He had his sway over the whole world.Let Sri Rama be your ideal. Ideals are remembered and adored for the purpose of adopting them in our own life. The Rama navami celebration, or the Vasanta Navaratri, every year is an opportune period for us to saturate ourselves with the spirit of Lord Rama. We love and adore the ideals because we express .
