Manav jagaran manch [humanity awakening platform]

Image
Thanks friends for your curiosity about MJM Actually MJM is Manav jagaran manch which was found in late 90s of 20 th century.[1998] It was aimed at serving to man as it is like serving to God. We conducted awareness campaign among youth, we had a pamphlet saying 'O man wake up as human being.' We worked in slum area by running a library for slum children and went into poor peoples houses to awake them saying that they could come together to fight their situation and find solutions on their own. Mjm also worked in the name of shivanand prabodh mandal a group of around 10 people in the field of yoga and spirituality for almost 4 to 5 years on regular weekly programmes and now working through occasional programmes. Last year Mjm held a public meeting to awaken people for and to fight against price hike and corruption along with terrorism, which drew a small crowd of 23 people. This is a small job done by MJM We believe in awakening rather than just a service. Awakened pe

About being human

Humanity has a vast meaning which has to be differentiated from other similar concepts too. It has got to do with human behavior. We find grossly 2 types of human behaviors good and bad. It may be pure white pure black or gray. Humanity does not demand everybody to be a great saint with purest form of behavior and to have everybody to be idealistic person. But it asks for such a behavior by a human being that does not harm others, exploits others for his selfish causes. Human acts are those in which a man or a woman will propagate his personal life without nuisance to others’ lives. He or she will be born, learn, work, earn livelihood, eat, drink, reproduce, nurture young ones and eventually die in peace. This will be a course of normal humanity. This basic human life is sufficient for one to be a human being. It does not harm humanity. It is so simple. So he wants something more. For being a better animal he or she may try to develop society, interact with others, develop a culture

The clouds

Cloud On the top of the mountain Floating in the clouds Floating in the clouds As if in the seventh heaven What an amusement what a feel Thy surprised by His vast creation around And He the creator He the one and only one Touching thy head With the gentle white cottony arms Like hair of old woman With the same love and affection The clouds Running through thee With the gentle breeze And thee in the complete bliss Of Him Thanking Him for his unending creation Around thee The clouds Entering your body and mind Shedding and cutting all the evil Within thee With a sharp scissor Without a drop of a blood Thee inhaling purest form of air and thought Trying to spread thy arms and catch the cotton In thy hands But He is the one who flees easily away He is not sought in palms but deep in the heart! Flowing around the top of the blue mountains Coming down on the confluence of rivers in the valley Sensing the green leaves Eying upon the naughty beam Of Sun rays

Father

Father Is it a cozy feel to be a father Nearing 50 Is it great to grow or is it not? Some feel good some bad Particularly when? When called uncle by the youth. It never gets on my nerves When a pretty gal calls so Han yes ya sure It is a cozy feel to be a father Not by blood but by heart! As a friend to many and to all, it was cool thing But to be a father is cooler. Friends could be jealous could be sexy But fathers are not! Fathers though not most but more pure to their kids As I will be 100 I hope I will be father of the world When Mohammad the waiter at Udupi hotel takes care of my favorite sit and tea He is a dear like a Son to me Regardless of religion & state bars. When Sathe who tops my son’s class leaving him behind in scores I have same pride as if he were my own one It is a cozy feel to be a father My wife at some moment is dear daughter than a wife Her childish smile is so soothening! When a girl is burnt for unilateral love My heart bleed

kids

Not that I think it will be a heaven on the earth Not the heaven on the earth really. It is going to be a game of good and bad Bad and good are so bound together that it has to be game of brothers to fight But see around how much the evil is reaching the sky Spreading its thorny horns all around All around the sky! Like a huge dinosaur Shadows of evil waving on and on to frighten our kids Out from their beds, out off their beds. So only wish is to fight it out and get a sigh of reliefs for years to come Years to come. And never be scared for the war As it is something that we have to do Deep inside our conscious every day and every night So remove the evil from the heart And make sure to be on the side of good who will vacate the sky from invader to keep it to a small sized pig with less harm a denture and less harm a horn So that our young ones sleep the whole night With same old smiles on their face With same old smiles on their face -by prasad phatak
