Mukang Karoti Vachalam Pongung langhaote Girim Tat KripaTamohanVande ParomanandaMadhavam – Gita

” Day after day, O lord of my life, shall I stand before thee face to face. With folded hands , O lord of all worlds, shall I stand before thee face to face.

Under thy great sky in solitude and silence , with humble heart shall I stand before thee face to face.

In this laborious world of the tumultuous with toil and with struggle, among hurrying crowds shall I stand before thee face to face.

And when my work shall be done in this world , O King of kings , alone and speechless shall I stand before thee face to face. ” –

Rabindranath Tagore

We are going to discuss about some rules which are to be strictly followed by the people who are interested in searching for light and to divinity already within us . If we think seriously about our spiritual life keeping aloof worldly activities , we couldn’t able to continue to practice or performing puja to God as we are not a monk .

FOR WORLD AND BEYOND :

Being a common man we can’t spend all the time in practicing the worship of God . It’s our utmost tendency to make ends meet for our family . We generally think that it’s not possible for a man to practice worship during our earthly activities .

We have to work for our livelihood . But at the same time we have to continue our spiritual growth through our regular works . According to practical Vedanta , each and every work is the Puja of God . If we seriously perform it , then we are worshiping the God , all works are to be meant for the service of God .

LET’S LISTEN AN ANECDOTE :

Here I shall tell an anecdote which I have experienced in my student life. I was then the student of the University of Calcutta , pursuing Post graduation. Generally Saturday and Sunday were our holidays. Occasionally I used to visit Narendrapur Ramkrishna Mission at Narendrapur near Kolkata ( then Calcutta) . There stayed my Emiritus Professor in Karmi Bhawan. Swami Lokesharananda was then the Secretary of the mission .

WORK IS WORSHIP :

One Sunday, at 8.30 am in the morning I reached there . While I was taking my tiffin in dining room , a senior man was also there . I came to know that his son recently has joined as a Bramhachari in Ramkrishna order. Coming here he noticed that his son is busy to cutting a big pumpkin in the kitchen. After a while , he went to Secretary Maharaj and said ,

” Swamiji, why my son is cutting vegetables here ? If he wishes to do it , can do it in his home . Why it’s needed to becoming a monk ? ” Swami Lokeshwaranandaji smilingly replied :

Yes , he could . But here all the Monks & Brahmhcharis are working in the name of God. Some are teaching in schools and colleges , some are providing medicine to the poor people, some are busy with the farming and they’re doing all these activities with meticulously as a service to God . They left their home for renunciation.

” Atmano mokhsartam Jagat Dhitai cha “. So their ultimate goal is to serve the larger humanity . Life is nothing but a platform for struggle . We have to fight here , but we forget this being wrapped in with the glistening to the worldly pleasures.

LIFE IS ALL ABOUT STRUGGLE:

According to Swami Vivekananda , life is all about struggle. From beginning to end – it’s an endless and continuous struggle of a being against circumstances tending to press it down ‘. This unending struggle, this incessant battle is what Swami Vivekananda characterizes as the ” divine worship”. In his poem ” And Let Shyama Dance There ” he wrote about this struggle :

WORSHIP OF DIVINE MOTHER:

Unceasing battle is indeed the worship of the Divine (Mother Kali) . / Let not continuous defeat in this battle unnerve thee all./ Pulverised, pounded be all selfcenterness ,/ base cravings and vain self – esteem. / The heart be thus made the cremation ground; / And let Shyama Dance There.

* Read my another post on the ” And Let Shyama Dance There” poem where I have elaborately expressed this .

Tagore’s song of ‘Geetanjali‘ I quoted at the beginning is significantly speaks similar to Swamiji’s conception about life .

So how can we overcome all these hurdles?

We should think that the battle of Kurukhetra is obviously a historical incident which was held in the field of Kurukhetra in between Pandabas And Kauraba . Its have a historical values , but at the same time, it has a deep significant in our lives- journey.

BATTLE OF OUR LIFE :

In course of our life journey we have been always battling against the evils , selfcenterness, negativity , greediness, and hundreds of like this. It’s a tough battle . This battle has been consistently and continuously going on within our conscience between good and evil.

So, how could we fight against this ? What should be our strategy ?

Sree Krishna preached in Gita when Arjun denied to fight against his relatives –

‘Oshsrupurnakulekhanam’ – Arjun in deep grief and melancholy – ‘Bishwidantam ‘. Sribhagobanubacho:

“ Kutasthwa Kashmalmidang Biswame Somupasthitam” –

kashmal means sin , cowardness , weakness . Our religion never shelter weakness. Never indulge cowardness . Sri krishna asks to Arjun , why are you repenting ? – ‘Bisame Somupasthitam‘ . Just it’s ( battle) beginning and in the eve of it , you are repenting ! Anauryajusthamsargam “. – it’s not appropriate to a warrior . Anarya means ignorance . Arya means civilized , sobar , benign , wise and intelligent .

Hi Arjun! You are not unwise , not stupid . He who unwise and stupid, he can refuse to battle . Next inspiring to Arjun, Bhagawan told – ‘Akirtikaram’.

You have a great name as an warrior . If you don’t proceed to fight , your honour, familiarity as a hero would have been wiped out . Why are you annoying to fight ?

” Kloibyang Masyasma Gamah Partha “. – Partha !

Please listen to me, Kloibyang – you don’t indulge weakness, unmanliness, timidity. It’s not proper descision. Noitat To-i Upopoddyote . It’s improper to you. You are a Hero .

“Khudrang Hridayadyourbollang Tyaktwya ” –

remove your fear . Kick out all these weakness . You defeated so many great warriors in the battlefield.

” Uttisthato Jaggrato Prappyo Baran Nibedhato “.

Awoke and arise. Let go to fight . “Parantapo” – who got victory against enemies. You have fighted against so many enemies and won the battle. Now why you’re unsteady to face battlefield. This weakness is not praisable. It’s a shame ! It doesn’t fit to you.

Arjun then told : “Rudhio Prodigdhan ” – that means : I don’t want to sit on the King’s throne by dint of bloods .

It’s to be continued

THE PRACTICE TO WIN

Posted on by Sushil Rudra

” God is Truth and Light in Shadow”. – Plato

” When the Gods were more manlike, Men were more Godlike”. – Friedrich Schiller

This is a post for the beginers who are getting influenced by the inner world, who is seeking to or searching for light of the soul . The first and foremost duty and responsibility of a man is to believe himself . Jesus Christ told us – ” Know Thyselves “. To know our inner world is to our practice of religion . Not only to know the Shiva Sakti in me , but to know others as a God is also our spiritual practice to go ahead of God. Uttisthata Jaggrata Prappya Baran Nibedhato.

This is the calling of Veda . Arise , Awake until you reached the Goal . Swami Vivekananda’s wards are same as Veda . Let be awaken , stand up and march on towards perfection . With your untiring efforts lastly victory over the demonic force which are obstructing your journey to truth , will come. Never shelter your weakness . You have enormous power within you .

OUR DESTINATION :

¶¶ We are not concerned about our destination. What is our goal of life ? It’s not clear to us . Perhaps we desire to be a Doctor , Engineer or IIT – ian , Chartered Accountant , or a Politician . Now – a – days some young boys and girls are fascinating in Music . Really we are running towards a goal which are related to economic delevarence and obviously it’s just and it should be the main aim of our lives. We can’t avoid it as it’s the means of survival.

EXAMPLE OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA :

Swami Vivekananda before renunciation walked from one office to another for a service. His family was in financial crisis after his father’s death though his father earned a lot , but helped his relatives in their crisis giving away all his earned money. Suddenly he died . So after his death no one came to help his family. Narendra Nath , with his mother and brothers had no source of income. He was then unemployed having graduated in Philosophy from the University of Calcutta . Moreover, He was then atheist and Joined Keshav Chandra’s Brahmah Samaj . As he was a skilled musician he used to sing in the Brahma Samaj choirs. But he didn’t satisfied with the Samaj when he was a college student.

MEETING WITH SRI RAMKRISHNA :

Next he met his guru Sree Ramkrishna Paramhansa having learnt from his principal, Mr . Hesty . One day ,in absence of their subject teacher of English, Principal Hesty Saheb came to take the class. He was teaching that day the English poem of Wordsworth , where there’s a matter of renunciation and of transcendental state of mind. In connection to this, he told that there’s a man (priest ) in nearby at Dakkgineshwar who had felt and reached at that transcendental state of mind. Within a few days Narendra Nath visited his spiritual master , Sree Ramkrishna .We know the next story which is a history. An atheist turned into a Theaist. Initially in his first meeting with Sree Ramkrishna Swamiji was an agonistic. But after some days he was being ignited into divine power and enlightenment through the touch of his Master.

DIVINE LIFE :

We know all this incidents of Swamiji’s devine life . Another great divine soul of India is Rishi Sree Aurobindo. We know about Maharshi Raman and so many godly souls of India who had enriched Indian spiritual culture . But now -a – days, it’s seldom found this kind of Divine man . Most of the so called Gurus are now business man . They are making industries like Tata , Ambani putting on saffron clothing . Concept has changed in modern day. They’re doing some good works also for the mankind. Rajyoga institutions , Patanjali , Esha Foundation are some of these organisations. Health and mind solution is their motto .

HINDUS ARE NOT ALERT :

What we are going to say that , in the present time Hindus are not getting connected with the pure spiritual invironment which was once aboundant merely 100 years ago. As a result, we have got a lot of sacrificed Indian who fought for the freedom of the country. They used to read Gita everyday and always carried a copy of this most inspiring book along with them. How profoundly they were spiritual minded it’s the vivid instance. Ultimately , the victory came by virtue of their sacrifice. We became free from the chain of British rule. Where had they got the strength ! It’s spiritual power which they possessed of.

PRESENT NEED :

For our country sake , it’s the present need to bathe in the spiritual river and to be purified . We have heard , and have seen so many scams draining out our capitals. Corruption is everywhere , in politics, in Burrocrats, in offices, Business, in Panchayat , and the list will be big . The machinery has been running through the corruption. Central Government perhaps wanted to introduce Gita in school curriculum. But I think they failed to make it fruitful. But it should and must to be fulfilled . Through the practice of reading Gita and realising its meaning one can be enriched in moral attitude and spiritual growth.

RENAISSANCE OF NINETEENTH CENTURY INDIA :

In nineteenth century, our Indian civilization , our culture had been going through a dark situation. It was wrapped up with the prejudices, fanatism, irrational activities , corruption and so on. Then there was a need for spiritual revival. Ram Mohan Roy , Sree Ramkrishna Paramhansa, Vidyasagar, Vivekananda, Tagore, Sri Aurobindo, Netaji Subhash, Mahatma Gandhi, and so many great men came to remove all these darkness of our country. They’re all divinely empowered and tried their best to correct all the flaws of the society as well as country. At present , we have acquired degrees , our scientists invented so many things , we have fulfilled our desires in materialistic world , but lagging behind to be firmly stood because of the corruptions . We have lost our moral and spiritual power . Our country men were in inactive , imprisoned in the magic circle of Tamas . In this connection I can quote here a speech of Aurobindo . He told in his Bhawani Mandir manifesto :

” The Shakti we call India. Bhawani Bharati is the living unity of the Shaktis of three hundred million people; but She is inactive, imprisoned in the magic circle of Tamas , the self – indulgent inertia and ignorance of her Sons. Strength can only be created by drawing it from the eternal and inexhaustible reservoirs of the spirit , from the Adyashakti of the Eternal which is the fountain of all new existence. “

LET FEED OUR SOUL :

Let feed our soul with positive power and energy , not in nagative . Positive attitude , spiritual energy , and true love for country can change the present dark scenario of our country. Our Country, India, is like a Phinix bird 🐦 . It never gets burne if it’s smoked. She would survive from the drawning condition .

MIND AND NATURE

Posted on by Sushil Rudra
Nature

“Where the mind’s free, the body’s delicate”. – William Shakespeare

“The mind is it’s own place, and in itself Can make a heaven of Hell , a hell of Heaven.” – John Milton

” Mental slavery is mental death , and every man who has given up his intellectual freedom is the living coffin of his dead soul.” – R G Ingersoll

The afternoon of my city is very calm and quiet. Most of the city dwellers used to take rest sometimes after a heavy lunch. I have been observing it for dicades. A pin drop silence prevails everywhere like midnight. I’m busy with my Mind and Nature.

Specially, in winter season , people are captivated in the house under the quilt . And the pandemic situation makes it massively isolated by which we are not happy at all . I don’t like to sleep after lunch. Sitting in a arm – chair in the Varanda , I am looking to and fro and thinking about the Nature.

Some tall tree of shal – segun and other trees are standing up keeping their head to the sky . Their leaves are being moved by the touch of the wind . Even shivering with the cold blow . How much joyously they are living in this cold season. In the meantime, I am to find out a tall man who is our home servent.

He has been working in our house for a long time since my birth. Rup Singh is his name. Unmarried Rup Singh is an illeterate person having no burden of family on his shoulder. He is returning to our house from the market purchasing some betel leaves and its spices. He used to have it.

This is only his fad to masticating spicy betel leaves. Rup Singh is indefferent in any circumstances. I never saw him to be getting restlessness. He is just like a tall tree never bend his head in worldly affairs and passions.

Can trees think ?

Can tree thinks like us ? Is there any sorrow and agony to their lives? I feel they’re very spontaneous in its entire life. When it grows up and gradually reach in full youth , it looks heavenly beautiful. In spring they are dressed in green leaves and moon -like flowers. It seems they are enjoying their lives with joy .

They look like a Queen. Are they talking about one’s love to another ? Don’t know whether they have any feelings of sorrow or joy ! Sometime I think , like Rup Singh our sorrounding Nature , all these tall trees are indifferent in joy and sorrow . If they could have a mind like us , then they can feel their good and bad

The Nature has been massively exploited and tortured owing to our civilization. This indifferent Nature never protest against this treachery. But gradually they are becoming conscious and trying to defense when they’re kept at bay .

Human being can think :

But we are human beings having a wisdom within us. If I don’t have any domestic duty , and not going to purchase raw vegetables or medicine in the market , I couldn’t stay in silence a moment . Because we have a mind who is all in all in my life. Our mind never stop to thinking until we get sleep . What we could , the steady and firm tall tree couldn’t . They couldn’t imagine what we could . They give us shelter in the hotty summer. Weary Passer-by can take rest for a while under it shed . If they’re not, we can’t survive without oxizen which they produce. With their gentle summer breeze we are getting the touch of Mother.

They’re with us from the very beginning of the civilization. You can say that they’re our beloved companions after snow – era or Himyuga . But being a man we have denied their friendship and killed them to enjoy our comfort. They didn’t betray us , but we did . Hence, let rule the demonic mind , and bring up the godly mind which is urgent need of the time.

WORDS ARE NOT SAFE

Posted on by Sushil Rudra

It’s beautiful to listen loving words, but it seems harse when it’s unfair . So throw off the words in the dustbin when it’s not come within . Don’t believe in sweet words if it’s not come out from the deep sea of love , Trust the words which are wrapped in with the compassion and sacrifice and with the tears of unconditional love. It’s serene and transcendental having no touch of possession. So when you are hurt by words , keep store it your pain and agony in the mind – unexposed , not take care of it , but throw all these in the waves of time . Positively a moment must come when you will gather a strength of neglecting all this hazards of life . All your gloomy state of mind will disappear silently like a dew dropping in the air, Be brave in futile , Never down your head in untruth and untrust . Perhaps, you have to bear in the heart the words of separation from morn to night, from awakening to surrendering in sleep , in dream and on the way to home from the office, but never shelter it as a guest, rather stand up with your utmost life force and strength , hate all these blunt words , kick out all the small desires and jump into the greater struggle which is full of light and delight like a nice poem .

Let sink in the deep ocean within you , Look never behind , Set your journey for the eternal power and enlightenment . Why are you running towards for a small love ! Float on the transcendental and with the serene which is within you.

Never care of the words which are not coming from deep sea of love and trust . Love is life which belongs to serene and transcendental , but when it’s chocked by some odd words that makes life cloudy, never indulge it but stay calm and quiet . Look forward and gaze at the sky , it’s calling you to be come closer as its companion . Let fly in the sky and take shelter beside the Stars , be friend of the fishes whose are swimming in the river with joy and pleasure. Be not with the friends who didn’t keep the words of love and not brave & fair.

LEMON JUICE CAN CURE CANCER: Lemon juice With Hot Water Cure CANCER. We are gradually becoming health conscious as we aren’t well and happy in this polluted atmosphere. Village people are not taking risks whenever they have to face any simple disease. Now-a-days , Doctors are available in village. So any ailing to health of village folk has been treated seriously. Comoaretively they are almost healthy as they used to have organic food items . They are mainly vegan , though non – veg items like meat , fish and eggs are available there. They used to have fresh vegetables and and also pure non – veg . So they’re mostly sound health . In spite of that , they’re not totally safe . Because the farmers are using pesticides and poisonous medicines in the agricultural havesting . Obviously when all these productions are being consumed, its poisonous effect adversely in the human body . It may cause of cancer or other belly ailments . So we should be cautious about our regular food habits. We never take impure food , fast food or junk food. Never should we accustomed having spicy lunch or dinner . If you have had some foods like that, we have to detoxify your body mechinery through some herbal medications . Now-a-days , you can purchase herbal detoxification tabs from the Ayurvedic medicine pharmacy. You might use in home lemon juice. Lemons of any kind are very helpful to protect our body and mind .Generally we don’t use it alongwith our lunch , but many places and homes it’s compulsory during lunchtime. It makes testy with spinach curry or dul . Regular habits of getting lemon juice of two pieces of lemon is highly effective in our health. We get vitamin C from it which support our body from cold allergy. It regulates our weak belly condition. Can cure gastritis.The another good effect of intaking lemon juice,is to protect our skin. we can use lemon juice mixing with alovera juice and olive oil as a skin ointment . It helps to rejuvenate and glow our skin . It has anti – aging qualities.The obesity of our micro -generation is a vital problem of the society. Young and old,women or men both the classes are in crisis in pertaining to this matter. They’re trying to curtail excess obese going to GIM or getting help of learned Doctors. A few obese patients are taking home remedies. I think dietary control will help to some extent. Homeo medicine Phytolacca 1m might control excessive obese .And the last, not the least , lemon juice can protect us from Cancer, but not in cold water , you’re to have the juice with slight hot water. You have to drink it for three months at a stress. Adding a pinch of Turmerics can be much powerful as a health drink . Try to get the drink as a regular habit and keep yourselves free from any disease.

HOW TO GET TOUCH WITH GOD

Posted on by Sushil Rudra

Dr. Sushil Rudra Durgapur , W. Bengal

BELUR
PRIME MINISTER IN BELUR MATH

WAY TO GOD

Have faith in God ? This is the first question to be had in your mind. We must not go anywhere, neither you ought to go Temple or Church or any religious place , nor any Guru or Master. Your inner “I” is your ideal Guru . Look into the deep down inside your heart blocking all the windows outside . But this is a very tough and mammoth task of human being.

WHAT WE DO ?

We generally take initiatives in the materialistic world and try to achieve success in this areas. Swami Vivekananda didn’t avoid this outer world . He has tried to spread science and technology in his motherland for meterialistic betterment . In spite of that , his was a great vision for the East and West.

HIS MISSION :

Man making was his main motto. That’s why, he emphasized in the practice of spiritual education along with the modern curriculum. Rabindranath Tagore and Mahatma Gandhi also opinioned to the same curriculum. But We used to practice with the erstwhile curriculum which was formulated by the British Government . After independence , several times our Education Policy has been changed, but never we introduced the concept of this great men . It’s extremely saddestic.

HIS MISSION IS NOT FULFILLED :

As a result, we are lagging behind in respect to Human resources. It’s found corruptions in the machinery of administration, judiciary and everywhere. Politicians are the most corrupted . Recently some BSF Commanders are arrested by the ED and CBI for Cows scams. They took bribes cores of money . So it’s proved that our borders are not safe at all if it’s the case . No , it’s not my subjects of discussion .

As I am the successor of the ancient intellectuals, I do believe that without spiritual education our development in all spheres of life must not be fulfilled. True spiritual education starts obviously from home. And the parents and other family members are the most responsible for imparting this spiritual growth amongst their children. But a lot of time the children used to spend in school . Besides , most of the parents are busy outside in jobs. So there’s no such invironment in the family where the children learns about knowledge of spirituality.

CHANGING SOCIETY :

In my childhood days we have a little space for practicing spirituality . But my daughter has not been given such learning . She is in the era of technology and always busy with it in order to preparing her dissertation or projects. So I couldn’t able to impart spiritual knowledge. In her primary school some story books pertaining to mythology were selected for rapid reading. But during adulthood they’re busy in their syllabus. The case is same in respect of all the students. So how can they feel about the spiritual world. A man or woman is not perfectly a human being without the achieving of the inner knowledge which we get from spiritual practice.

PROBLEM TO IMPLEMENT :

Then how can we introduce this culture amongst the new generation ?

At present, Yoga education has been included in the curriculum. Through yoga it will be easy to control the mind . Here the role of Yoga teacher is highly needed to impart the spiritual knowledge along with the Aasanas. Another important thing is to impart training on meditation. At present in every Higher Education institute ( IIT, IIM , NIT) there’s a post of Psychologist and they look after the students who are suffering in stress and anxiety. Because it is a high competitive level of education where mostly are under mental pressure. Their dream is stupendous. So the quantity of stress is high enough. If they practice regularly yoga and meditation , they will be able to overcome the challenges they face of. I know that they have little time to practice it , but it should be compulsive to them to maintain it in their routine. Ultimately they will come close to God in such a way.

VALUE EDUCATION:

Value education to be implemented to everyone is must duty and responsibility of the government. It’s urgent need to impart value education for the students as well as new generation .

Secondly, it should be given to all the government workers, political leaders, doctors, teachers and administrators .

Thirdly, the members of the NON- PROFIT-ORGANISATION, members of the private sector must be given training of moral and value education.

Fourthly, there should be a vigilance committee to look into this matter seriously. If there is found any pitfalls or irregular activities , immediately they should be penalised .

CONCLUSION :

India, our motherland , never demolished. It’s just like Phinix Birds . The more you try to burn it, the more it will be survived . Never it dies . Our India will never die. The vitality , the backbone of India is her spirituality. India will be flourished with this energy.

Another Successful Businessman

I have discussed in the last post about Tomas Saheb who like Mahashay established Bata Company. Late Dharampala Gulati is the instance of the rare businessman who sacrificed his whole life believing in a motto that he must reached at the goal. Being an uneducated man he had managed a big company where many educated workers are engaged there under his supervision. His life and activities should be a mission to the youngsters who are looking for government services or any employment. If they’re interested in business, they should follow up with his determination and success which can inspire them abundantly.

MY JOURNEY TO BLOGGING

Posted on by Sushil Rudra

A DIARY OF A GIPSY

This is a white board where I want to decorate some gems of words which I have received from Indian culture and from spiritual wealth of ancient sages . I have been trying here to depict the critical life journey of a village boy who in course of time and actions walks from native village to town and then one city to another in India for enjoying to have education, service and livelihood through a jig jug way .

ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE IN LIFE

I have experienced a lot , good or bad, but was enriched and try to enlightening myself . In my boyhood days I was not shy or shaky, but vibrant. Perhaps I wasn’t bold and haven’t healthy physique, but everyday I used to go high school in a remote village by walking which was 4 kilometres away from my home. There’s river Ganga ( Bhagirathi) in between our village and the village where the school is situated. After returning home in afternoon and getting some foods I regularly joined in the football or cricket team to play minimum one to one and half hours. We had to return home before dusk . From 7 to 9.30 pm was our reading time . At 9.30 it’s dinner time. Generally we have no task afterwards. Sometime we used to play indoor games Ludu with my elder brother or sister.

STUDY TIME :

But on the eve of half yearly or final exam we were to continue our studying after dinner. We had to get up at 4.30/5.00 O’clock in the morning for revision our study material for preparation. During holidays sometimes we used to sing music in our Boithakkhana along with my elder brother’s friend. Sometime we have played Ha du du , Nunthari , Badminton and also freehand exercise with Yogasana.

DURING DURGAPUJA :

We enjoyed a lot during our Durgapuja festival. Everyday I used to visit Durga Mandir to see the mud built statues of the deities. I also then used to collect Shiuli flowers

HIGHER EDUCATION :

I have been shifted to our town house for college education. There was no college near to our village home . Now there’s a college. From then I have spent almost all the time in Berhampore Murshidabad. After graduating from Krishnath College, I studied in The University of Calcutta for post graduation and Ph.D . Almost 5/6 years I had to spend in Calcutta ( now Kolkata) in West Bengal. Here I want to express some words about my health. I wasn’t sound health during this period. I was brunt severely with hot oil accidentally just before part one Honours degree exam . And was being admitted to hospital for treatment. From then I was not stable at all. However, I have got my M. A and Ph.D digress without any break.

BEGINNING OF MY SERVICE LIFE :

Just one year after I was posted in a college as a guest professor for some months. But it wasn’t permanent job. Then after some months I have been given a service as faculty member at Krishnath College in lien vacancy . But the employee didn’t return there as he was selected for Principal post somewhere in Bengal. So I was given the vacant post . There I have been teaching for 33 years .

WHEN I WAS IN KOTA :

Next I had to take a service in the department of English of Rajasthan Technical University as a guest professor and at the same time I have furnished my duty as an Associate Professor in English department at Dr. Modi Engineering College in Kota. I went there for my daughter, Sumedha’s coaching purpose and Stayed two years in Kota. This was a great experience . We joined there in Bengali Association . During Durgapuja we have been participated in music and drama . Very beautiful city . Rajasthan Technical University, where I taught is a mother University . I enjoyed immensely there.

RETURNING TO MY NEST :

Returning Bengal, I decided to stay in Durgapur City in West Bengal for my daughter’s higher education. In the meantime, I have retired from my service. After that I have taken a service in a B.Ed college as a Principal. It’s 20 km away from Durgapur City . I was there for sometime. When I have abled to manage a service near to my present resident I took resignation from the service of Principal. At present I am furnishing my small duty as a guest professor in Michael Mashusudan Memorial College in Durgapur. I want to live here with some works .

WRITING AS MY HOBBY & OTHERS THINGS :

Writing is my one of the hobbies. I authored 12 books and it has been published from Kolkata publishing company. Swami Vivekananda and Rabindranath Tagore both are my subjects of discussion. I am very fond of music. I can sing Rabindranath Sangeet and Bengali modern songs. I am also foodie. I love sweets, misti doi and Hilsa fish. Dislike meats. Like travelling, blogging , debets and listening music. I am a father of a beautiful daughter . My spouse, Santa has been brought up here in this Steel City, Durgapur.
