What is your aim .........money, fame or Social cause

Friends,

Charity or social cause can be made for:

• Money
• Fame
• Social cause, personal belief/interest

 There are so many ways to do it:

• You can do that by simply spreading the useful information to all (specially youth), 
• making common people aware about possibilities, 
• by supporting any same NGO-person, 
• by starting one itself……………………………..

And finally what will the moral, target for doing the same:

• Uplifment of all
• maximum employment generation with maximum joy
• To serve the needy people
• for our culture
• For our beliefs

Let me clarify my stand first, I have money at third place only, everyone has desire of fame but I will surely keep my eye on Social cause before fame. Currently I am doing information spreading and awareness campaign but will surely go for giant step once I got enough backup (before my 40 years, I will definitely not tell anyone at my sixties  that I really missed doing that during my forties,fifties…….).  I have already declared that whatever the earning from adsense on this blog I will get, I will donate it. Now lets take it by examples and scenarios. 

Scenario 1: We have some goody, goody unique (it might be not) thoughts, we plan to implement in near future with support of govt, ngo, friends and take rest.

Scenario 2: We have small plan for social cause and we start working on that practically without any help of others, thinking that others will join in future once they like

Scenario 3: We have plan, we go to 2-3 NGO, donors, showing them plan and once we got big  donation and we got started.

Now based on personal experiences, I will analyze all three scenarios.

Scenario 1: These people are mostly in search of fame, they will surely not do anything else thinking & planning. They will keep telling ideas to their friends and on internet, but will not do anything till the end.

I have seen so many people at the age of 60 saying that I had thought about this and that but have not done anything, now I want to do that.

Example: many highly educated senior citizens, jago re

Scenario 2: This kind of people are doing the things for real social cause, information spreading and make people people aware. There is no hidden or mean motive in this. So this kind of people will start immediately without much thinking whatever they can do with their money & experience. These people will face lots of hurdle and lots of friends on road, but ultimately they will be lonely only. 

See this example.

Akhil Sutaria, Manavashram near Palitana, Krishnan and many more unknowns

Scenario 3: This kind of people are doing the social work for their own profit (money), they work a little and show more than that. Fancy presentations and websites, but poor at heart. These people will surely got success initially, but it might be not long-term, short-term only.

e.g most of the NGOs, CSR,

So what one should do, according to me whatever you do for charity, social cause purpose ...........do it in one direction. So that your whole community, society OR village can be uplifted. I have written one article about the same, you can read it here. It got high voltage debate cum discussion on that thread.

But go for maximum employment with maximum joy and in one direction.

For you information read frustration of one guy, who is falling in scenario 2 and got very good response also, but he got nothing from so called NGOs, political persons and many more such person. Read it here

I have also so many plans for social work, but I will surely do that first and then only will show.

Some really good GUJARATI gujju stuff -- Books, Adhyatma, Songs, Natak and many more

 A humble request to you all .......

Being a GUJARATI, most of us might have gone through below stuff already. But I represent here mostly for our youth, for all-in-one collection purpose, to mesmerize etc. Whatever you like, but go through once and spread it as much as possible.

I know we do not have much reading time in current lifestyle, but below books are worth to read. I have selected few books in every subject, I call it gem, later on you decide.

Gujarati Books:

During my childhood, I used to read CHAMPAK and NAVNEET SAMARPAN (I think it is the oldest magazine) at my grandpa’s house. Later on during my 10^th , 11^th and 12^th: I had read so many Gujarati Books. Mainly in three categories

1)     Gujarat History in the form of books; Which includes

Gujarat no NATH, Patan ni Prabhuta, Rajadhiraj, Prithvivallabh, Jay Somnath and many more by Shri Kanaiyalal Munshi. There after read whole PATAN based series of Shri Gunvantray Acharya like Sidhraj Jaisinh, Minaldevi, Achaldevi, Ra Navghan and some 4-5 more in the series.

·        Seriously this Patan series books are so damn good, that you cannot stop yourself after reading any one.

2)     Gujarati Novels

Seriously I have read only 4-5 Gujarati Authors like K Munshi, Gunvant Acharya, Varsha Adalaja and Harkishan Mehta, Ashivini Batt. I have read so many novels written by them, but best of them are as below;

My Most fav:

OOTAR  (ઓથાર) written by Ashvini Bhatt.

Then Pila Rumal Ni Ganth by Harkisan Mehta.

·        Othar story is such an intresting that I had finished within 2-3 days though there was 10th final examination ahead of few days.

3)    Adhyatm/personal experiece

I read few such books, but best of them are “Aghor Nagara Vage 1&2”  by Shri Mohanlal Agrawal & “Karma No Sidhdhant” by Shri Manibhai Thakkar.

This Aghor one best describes some of the places like Panchal Pradesh (surrounding are of Surendranagar), Mount Abu (We all know tourist place Abu, but in this book he has described Abu adhayatmickly). While in Karm book he has mostly cleared our doubts about Karma (Work) and Bhaga (fortune). You just read it.

Above all I recommend to all my readers books by Jain muni Shri Vijayratnasuriji maharaj;1) Lakhi Rakho Aaras ni Takti Par – based on father-son relationship. If you are son please read it and If you are a father please buy it and give it to your son or daughter. I bat you people either you are father or son, you will surely cry once  2) Zer Jyare Nitri Jay Che – It is based on Saas and Bahu relations. Again samething as above.

*I have read most of the above books during my higher standard examination. But with God grace I passed with more than Distinction.

Gujarati Natak:

I have seen very strange thing that in Mumbai, there are so many Gujarati Natak shows everyday and nearly 20-30 shows during weekends at  Boriwali, Ghatkoper and Andheri. In contrast, in Ahmedabad, there are hardly 2-3 shows during weekend. In mumbai every saturday and Sunday local Gujarati news paper filled with adv of Nataks (you dont believe whole 2-3 pages).

Now coming to our topic, during my Mumbai stay of almost one and half year I have seen many Gujju Nataks, but best among them is “Baa ee Mari Boundry”. All other natak have some bogus stories, some double meaning dialoges and some unknown character. But in above natak, everting is perfect.

I strongly suggest, all of you to see it once, it has high class humour, comedy and story. Specially that foreign return character.

Gujarati Songs:

Again there are two categories, filmy and folk including bhajans. I like the below folk songs and Bhajan most;

Rangai ja ne tu rang ma, Dhuni re dhakhavi.....alak tara nam ni , Pan Lilu Joyu ne ..., Umbre ubhi ......bol walam na, Krishna bhagvan chaliya........dwarika ni tire, Maro helo samblo, Nayan ne band rakhi ne, Vithal vithal vithala and many more.

Movie songs:

Ame maiyara re......gokul gam na, Jag re malan jag, Hu tu tu tu......chali ramat ni rutu, chel-chabila gujarati and some more.

Gujarati Magazine:

Earlier it was Champak, Navneet Samarpan, Safari and currently addicted to GUJARAT magazine by Gujarat Government.

Readers, I have soft copy of all above things except books, so if anyone is intrested in getting the same, I will happly give it. Currently I am searching all the books mentioned above for my library collection. I have already wrote about best Gujarati food places all over Gujarat and Best  Gujarati known and unknown tourist places in previous articles.

Above all I have also written article on NRGs (non residential Gujarati). If you have not read it before and not bored up to this line you can read it at;

Herewith ending up writing my love toward Gujarat. I know, there will be some people who will surely criticize me about not writing the same in Gujarati, I apologize for the same in advance. 

Please don’t stop yourself to write a comment and also if possible click on Google ads, I am going to donate the earnings from adsense to mentally retired people and Panjrapol (shelter for holy cows) as mentioned at top right corner. 

Author can be reached at himansuh.acharya@gmail.com and 9925485155 as I have shifted to Ahmedabad finally. 

 A humble request to you all .......
