The winter has set in Kuwait. But its a welcome
feeling with the members of Seva Darshan actively
participating in various programmes across Kuwait.
The spiritual gatherings have brought great mental
happiness to one and all. Members are actively
involved in conducting programmes is a well-
disciplined fashion and also the preparations for our
upcoming youth camp in January is in full swing.
While we are often asked of the necessity of such
programmes in a land far away from our mother
country, we would like to remind our readers that
these are activities that keep us close to our culture
and always keeps alive the sense of oneness to our
nation while we work and earn far away from our
near and dear ones. Possibly this is why we are deeply
involved and affected by the happening in our nation
daily. This month has been an extremely important
one as far as political observers are concerned. The
recent elections results have shown the peoples
determination in uprooting corrupt governments
and at the same time retaining their confdence in
governments that have stood for development of
their respective states. The results have also brought
to the forefront new political establishments that
have won on the platform of anti-corruption and new
ideas. This shows hope in the process of democracy
in a country like India where dynasty, religion and
caste has often played an important role. The power
of young generation is been felt across the nation
and major political parties are now redefning their
agendas. The people of India must be vigilant in
exercising their rights as often their judgment can
be clouded by new energetic forces that could also
be simply a reaction to the bigger issue of a nation
in distress. At testing times like these more seasoned
and rational political thoughts that have stood the
test of time would be a better choice.
At the same time, efforts to unite the nation like
the building of the Sardar Vallabhai Patel statue
with contribution from thousands of farmers from
across the nation must be applauded. Our readers
will be reminded of the gigantic effort done to raise
funds for the Vivekananda memorial rock which
today stands as a symbol of unity for our nation.
While we face tremendous pressure in securing our
borders and from forces within the country, bent on
destabilizing our nation, we must not be seen as a
weak country. The world today is in need of a strong
India that can pave way for peace and stability across
the globe. Being a nation with enormous military
power, scientifc advancements, we are still being
treated as a developing third world nation. Our
diplomats are being treated in a manner not beftting
the spirit of protocol that exists between nations.
At the same time, we as Indians, must be ready to
follow the laws of the land we live in.
The need is for a social change rather than new
laws to enforce a change. New laws will simply
lower statistical fgures but not the mentality of
the society that is making certain people resort to
physical and psychological violence. Effective steps
must be taken to educate the society starting from
homes. Respect of laws and other human beings
must be part of our character engineering. The larger
arguments of who make these laws and the need to
follow other people are matter of debate that will
not help solve our current issues.
Here comes the importance of taking steps that
will ensure that the next generation is brought up in
the right environment that respects our nation, its
culture and heritage. Proper education must also be
coupled with training from a very young age that
will ensure that the youngsters choice of his future
will certainly have vision of stronger nation and
society that he can live in peacefully. The current
negative aura of despair that we see in our country
and our young generation is only a passing phase.
We must be the catalyst to ignite that spark in their
minds..

Recent events has forced us to take a look at
why we Indians have a defeatist attitude when it
comes to situations, where we as a Nation have to
take important decisions that can change our future.
Basically, it has been always about a complete non
awareness of our history and why we have always
been a proud nation with a glorious civilization.
History always talks of the winners. And so our
history has been rewritten so many times that we
ourselves are not aware of the truth. Our history
has been ridiculed and compared with half known
information and assumptions. Our educational
system has been tampered with to such an extent
that lessons that would otherwise raise our patriotic
feeling and drive our nationalistic perspectives have
been completely erased. Great freedom fghters
have been projected as criminals and others have
one paragraph references in a few chapters.
One of the main ideas talked about our
civilization is of the Aryan invasion theory. India
is supposed to have been invaded and occupied
by white Aryans from central Europe at about
1500BC. They are supposed to have defeated the
dark skinned Dravidians who were driven down
south.
One of the main reasons for this theory is the
mismatch of the archeological evidence of the
Indus Valley civilization and that of the biblical
chronology of the world being formed at 4000BC.
But western scholars are yet to establish how
these primitive nomads have not been to establish
an advanced civilization like the Indus valley
civilization elsewhere on their journey to Bharat.
The argument is based on fnding that there
were such invasions that affected the Middle
East during the second millennium and those
nomads with horses and chariots with weapons
had attacked the civilization existent in Bharat at
that time. However no evidence has so far been
able to prove this theory. But later discoveries
have proved that the chariots were not new to the
Indus valley. It was also proven that domesticated
cattle like horses and cows have been part of the
Indus culture. It would also be highly improbable
that the nomads would have used chariots to cross
the mountains and deserts of the Middle East and
todays Afghanistan. The logic being that chariots
would have been used on fat lands.
Our Vedas have specifc references to metals
in different forms and colours. These suggest that
metals like iron or copper may not have been new
to our civilization. New fndings of cities like
Dwaraka have opened up a lost link to the Vedic
era and have proven a continuation of civilization
much earlier to the so called invasion. New age
archeologists, often with less knowledge of the
religious scriptures, tend to classify fndings and
bring about their own theory to substantiate the
invasion theory.
They use the interpretation of fght between
light and darkness to show that light skinned men
attacked Bharat and drove away the dark skinned
people, but, similar examples in other civilsations
like the Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations
are not interpreted thus.
In short we dont have any proper evidence
showing an invasion but the very continuation of
the same people who called themselves Aryans.
The texts from the Vedic era mention the river
Saraswathi and the Indus valley culture is
supposed to very close to the banks of this river.
As per chronology of the arrival of the so called
invaders, the Saraswathi River would have already
dried up and caused the end of the Indus Valley
civilization before the invasion took place even.
Then how could the Aryans establish their culture
on the bank of this river?
Modern archeologists have also brought forward

evidences like painted pottery to show that these
were not associated with the Vedic culture and was
brought from outside. Infact, they are evidence of
a changing cultural advancement that took place
in the region. Even studies in the Middle Eastern
areas indicate worship gods like Surya, Maruti and
Himlaya. They have even got evidence of texts
written in Sanskrit dating back to much before the
so called Aryan invasion of the Middle East. Many
seals with close resemblance to the Indus Valley
civilization have also been found in the ruins
around this area.
In short the western world has begun to reject the
Aryan invasion theory or any other theory for the
origin of the Hindu civilization. The BBC recently
ran a story rejecting the theory completely and pin
pointing the various faws to the theory. There is
absolutely no mention in the Vedic texts of nomads
and their culture in the east of the great invasion of
the Indus lands.
The westerners can never accept the fact that
the Vedas were from a pre-Indus period as this
would make ancient India the oldest and largest
civilization which would have led to the formation
and development of many ancient cultures as we
know it now. This would mean that the oldest
literary record the Vedas at 1500BC would be
even older than this date by about 1000 years. This
would mean that the Indo-Europeans and other
tribes migrated from India and not the other way
around.
The theory was basically propounded to divide
the Indians into Aryan and Dravidian cultures
which then became hostile to each other. Till
today this is one of the reasons for the social
unrest between different communities in India.
The British claim they were only doing what our
ancestors did before while invading a land. By
pushing the date of the Vedas they wished to prove
that the Vedas were written possibly by Middle
Eastern cultures thus bringing the proximity to the
Middle Eastern religions more closely. This would
also validate many scientifc fnding of the East
as more authentic than those of the Vedic era. The
theory also discredits the genealogy of great kings
and warriors. It discredits all Hindu traditions and
scriptures, turning the Mahabharata into a story of
petty fghts.
This served a social, political and economic
purpose of domination. It proved the superiority of
Western culture and religion. It made the Hindus
feel that their culture was not the great thing that
their sages and ancestors had said it was. It made
Hindus feel ashamed that the basis of their culture
was neither historical nor scientifc. It made them
feel that the main line of civilization was developed
frst in the Middle East and then in Europe and that
the culture of India was peripheral and secondary
to the real development of world culture.
We may take many more years to fnd out the
exact truth of our Vedic Heritage. It may be possible
that the truth may never be known. But we as a
nation are following what the British laid down for
the mere sake of political and religious prejudice.
Many Indian scholars like Bal Gangadhar Tilak
and Sri Aurobindo have rejected this theory. But
it should have been rejected and taken out of our
learning process by the society on the whole. Our
universities and schools still use books written
by western historians and even use translations
of our Vedic literature by westerners which often
denigrate our own culture and country. The modern
Western academic world is sensitive to criticisms
of cultural and social biases. For scholars to take a
stand against this biased interpretation of the Vedas
would indeed cause a re-examination of many of
these historical ideas.
We should not allow false interpretations our
culture and history in the name of tolerance.

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel (October 31, 1875 -
December 15, 1950)
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel the iron-man of
India was born on 31st October, 1875, in a small
village in Nadiad. His father Jhaverbhai Patel was
a simple farmer and mother Laad Bai was a simple
lady. From his childhood itself, Patel was a very
hard-working individual. He used to help his fa-
ther in farming and studied in a school at N. K.
High school, Petlad. He passed his high-school
examination in 1896. Throughout school he was a
very wise and intelligent student. Inspite of poor
fnancial conditions his father decided to send him
to college but Vallabhbhai refused. Around three
years he stayed at home, worked hard and prepared
for the District Leader's examination, hence pass-
ing with very good percentage.
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel is a historical fgure
who moves you to tears. Mostly these are tears of
joy, for he achieved a thrilling Indian unity. Yet
some are tears of pity, for the Sardar suffered and
sacrifced much. Sardar Patel hated to work for
anyone especially the Britishers. He was a person
of independent nature. He started his own practice
of law in a place called Godhara. Soon the prac-
tice fourished. He saved money, made fnancial ar-
rangement for the entire family. He got married to
Jhaberaba. In 1904, he got a baby daughter Mani-
ben, and in 1905 his son Dahya was born. He sent
his elder brother to England for higher studies in
law. In 1908, Vitthabhai returned as barrister and
started practising in Bombay. In 1909 his wife be-
came seriously ill and was taken to Bombay for
treatment Vallabhbhai had to go for the hearing of
an urgent case and his wife died. He was stunned.
He admitted his children in St. Mary's school Bom-
bay, and he left for England. He became a barrister
and retuned to India in 1913.
He started his practice in Ahmedabad and
soon he became aware of the local life, activities
and people's problems. He became an extremely
popular person and he got elected in the Munici-
pal Corportaion in 1917. Around 1915, he came
across Mahatma Gandhi. The Swadeshi Move-
ment was at its peak. Gandhiji gave a lecture at
a place in Ahmedabad where Patel heard him and
was very impressed and started actively participat-
ing in the freedom movement. The British govern-
ment's atrocities were increasing. The government
declared to confscate all the lands of farmers. He
forced the British government to amend the rules.
He brought together the farmers and encouraged
them and hence got the title of 'Sardar' and thus
became famous.
The British government considered him as a
Iron Man of India

threat and his lectures were considered anti-gov-
ernment and he was imprisoned several times. In
1942, he took part in the Quit India Movement
under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. He was
arrested along with other leaders and was sent to
Ahmednagar jail. Inspite of the British Rule, rul-
ers of the small kingdoms were spending a lot of
public money, and were having a nice time. Sardar
Vallabh Bhai opposed this.
Sardar Patel with great wisdom and political
foresight, he consolidated the small kingdoms.
The public was with him. He tackled the Nizam
of Hyderabad and the Nawab of Junagarh who in-
tially did not want to join India. There were a lot
of problems connected with the reunion of the nu-
merous states into India. Sardar Patel's untiring ef-
forts towards the unity of the country brought suc-
cess. Due to the achievement of this massive task,
Sardar Patel got the title of 'Iron Man'. ' He is one
of the prestigious leaders of the world who became
immmortal by uniting a scattered nation without
any bloodshed. His enthusiasm to work for the
independent nation got a big jolt when Gandhiji
was murdered. Patel was very attached to Gandhiji
and considered him, his elder brother and teacher.
He was encouraged by Mahatma Gandhi in all his
work. Gandhiji's death left him broken. On 15th
December, 1950 he died of a cardiac arrest. The
news of his death spread all over the world. The en-
tire nation plunged into deep sorrow, life came to a
standstill. A grateful nation paid a tearful homage
to it's beloved leader. In 1991 the grateful nation
conferred upon him the honour of Bharat Ratna.

There is a legend about a magic tree, kalpa-
taru, that fulflls all wishes. Indian civilization is
this tree of riches and wisdom. Kings and emper-
ors sought to conquer India for its material wealth;
the campaign of Alexander, the unceasing attacks
of the Turks, the voyage of Columbus, the British
empirethese had India as the focus. Indian sages,
philosophers and mystics have held out a shining
vision that has appealed to the world. Even Alexan-
der took Indian yogis back to Greece with him. In-
dian thought infuenced not only China and South-
east Asia, it may also have provided key impulses
to Western thought. We fnd the Indic people in
West Asia in the second millennium BC in the Kas-
site kingdom of Babylon and the Mitannis of Syria.
The father of the famous Queen Kiya of Egypt was
the Mitanni king Tushratha (or Dasharatha). The
Indic element has been seen in the beginnings of
Greek art. It is quite conceivable that the religious
traditions of West Asia preserve a remembrance
of their Indic past.The modern mind was shaped
after adoption by the West of the twin beliefs of
living in harmony with nature and search for a sci-
entifc basis to reality. In the past 300 years, these
ideas of universality and a quest for knowledge
have transformed European and American society.
Many of the greatest writers and scientists of the
past 100 years have taken inspiration from these
Indic ideas.
Erwin Schrdinger
Perhaps the most remarkable intellectual
achievement of the twentieth century was quantum
theory, which is at the basis of our understanding of
chemistry, biology, and physics and, consequently,
it is at the basis of the centurys astonishing tech-
nological advances. One of the two creators of this
theory was Erwin Schrdinger (1887-1961). In an
autobiographical essay, he explains that his discov-
ery of quantum mechanics was an attempt to give
form to central ideas of Vedanta which, in this in-
direct sense, has played a role in the birth of the
subject. In 1925, before his revolutionary theory
was complete,
Erwin Schrdinger wrote:
This life of yours which you are living is not
merely a piece of this entire existence,but in a
certain sense the whole; only this whole is not so
constituted that it can be surveyed in one single
glance. This, as we know, is what the Brahmins
express in that sacred, mystic formula which is yet
really so simple and so clear: tat tvam asi, this is
you. Or, again, in such words as I am in the east
and the west, I am above and below, I am this en-
tire world.
Schrdingers infuential What is Life? (1944)
also used Vedic ideas. The book became instantly
famous although it was criticized by some for its
emphasis on Indian ideas. Francis Crick, the co-
discoverer of the DNA code, credited this book for
key insights that led him to his revolutionary dis-
covery. According to his biographer Walter Moore,
there is a clear continuity between Schrdingers
understanding of Vedanta and his research: The
unity and continuity of Vedanta are refected in the
unity and continuity of wave mechanics. In 1925,
the world view of physics was a model of a great
machine composed of separable interacting mate-
rial particles.
During the next few years, Schrdinger and
Heisenberg and their followers created a universe
based on superimposed inseparable waves of prob-
ability amplitudes. This new view would be en-
tirely consistent with the Vedantic concept of All
in One. He became a Vedantist, a Hindu, as a result
of his studies in his search for truth. Schrdinger
kept a copy of the Hindu scriptures at his bedside.
He read books on Vedas, yoga, and Sankhya phi-

losophy and he reworked them into his own words,
and ultimately came to believe them. The Upa-
nishads and the Bhagavadgita were his favourite
scriptures.
According to his biographer Moore, His sys-
temor that of the Upanishads is delightful and
consistent: the self and the world are one and they
are all. He rejected traditional western religious
beliefs (Jewish, Christian, and Islamic) not on the
basis of any reasoned argument, nor even with an
expression of emotional antipathy, for he loved to
use religious expressions and metaphors, but sim-
ply by saying that they are naive. Schrdinger
was a professor at several universities in Europe.
He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1933. During
the Hitler era he was dismissed from his position
for his opposition to the Nazi ideas and he fed to
England. For some years he was in Ireland, but af-
ter the conclusion of the World War II he returned
to Vienna where he died in 1961.
Quantum mechanics goes beyond ordinary log-
ic. According to it reality is a superposition of all
possibilities which is very different from classical
physics. It is quantum mechanics which explains
the mysteries of chemical reactions and of
life. In recent years, it has been suggested that
the secrets of consciousness have a quantum basis.
In a famous essay on determinism and free will,
Schrdinger expressed very clearly the sense that
consciousness is a unity, arguing that this
insight is not new From the early great Upani-
shads the recognition Atman = Brahman (the per-
sonal self equals the omnipresent, all-comprehend-
ing eternal self) was in Indian thought considered,
far from being blasphemous, to represent the quin-
tessence of deepest insight into the happenings of
the world. The striving of all the scholars of Ve-
danta was, after having learnt to pronounce with
their lips, really to assimilate in their minds this
grandest of all thoughts.
He thought the idea of pluralization of con-
sciousness and the notion of many souls to be na-
ive. He considered the notion of plurality to be a
result of deception (maya): the same illusion is
produced by a gallery of mirrors, and in the same
way Gaurisankar and Mt. Everest turned out to be
the same peak seen from different valleys.
Schrdinger was a very complex person. But
he had a sense of humor and paradox. He called
his dog Atman. Perhaps he did this to honour Yu-
dhishthira whose own dog, an incarnation of cos-
mic justice (Dharma), accompanied him on his last
march to the Himalayas. More likely, he was call-
ing attention to the unity that pervades the web of
life.
Erwin Schrdinger Quotes
The unity and continuity of Vedanta are refect-
ed in the unity and continuity of wave mechanics.
In 1925, the world view of physics was a model of
a great machine composed of separable interact-
ing material particles. During the next few years,
Schrodinger and Heisenberg and their followers
created a universe based on super imposed insepa-
rable waves of probability amplitudes. This new
view would be entirely consistent with the Vedantic
concept of All in One
Vedanta teaches that consciousness is singular,
all happenings are played out in one universal con-
sciousness and there is no multiplicity of selves.
Nirvana is a state of pure blissful knowledge..
It has nothing to do with individual. The ego or its
separation is an illusion. The goal of man is to pre-
serve his Karma and to develop it further when
man dies his karma lives and creates for itself an-
other carrier.
There is no kind of framework within which we
can fnd consciousness in the plural; this is simply
something we construct because of the temporal
plurality of individuals, but it is a false construc-
tion.The only solution to this confict insofar as
any is available to us at all lies in the ancient wis-
dom of the Upanishad.
The multiplicity is only apparent. This is the
doctrine of the Upanishads. And not of the Upani-
shads only. The mystical experience of the union
with God regularly leads to this view, unless strong
prejudices stand in the West.
After the conversations about Indian philoso-
phy, some of the ideas of Quantum Physics that
had seemed so crazy suddenly made much more
sense.
Some blood transfusion from the East to the
West to save Western science from spiritual ane-
mia.

Organ donation is the most selfess act where
even after departure from this world one continues
to exist in some form in someone else. We came
without having any belongings and we go without
taking anything we acquired in your life time,then
why you want to take your organs to heaven, which
is not needed there as mentioned in all religious
books including holy bible.
Tissue and organ transplants report a great vic-
tory for medical science and certainly hope for
many patients who are suffering from end stage or-
gan failures especially liver,kidney and heart.The
scarcity of organs are indeed a biggest hurdle in
transplantation program because the demand out-
number the availability in a big way.
Organ donations are of two types. It is possible
to donate organs alive and it is called as live dona-
tion. Living donors can donate blood, bone mar-
row, one Kidney, a part of the Liver.But in brain
dead donor almost all organs can be utilised and
will give fresh lease of life atleast to eight people.
As per the Transplantation of Human Organs Act
1994 , only frst degree relatives (Parents, Chil-
dren, Grand parents, Grand Children, Siblings and
Spouse) are allowed to be Live Donors
Live unrelated organ donation is also possible In
the event of there being no frst relative ,provided
you get approval from an authorisation committee
constituted by the government. and someone other
than Only on being granted permission from this
government committee could undertake unrelated
transplants this is to prevent organ trade and traf-
fcking and govt has imposed stringent punishment
for violation of transplant rules.
Deceased Donations can be classifed into two.
They are Brain Death and Cardiac/Natural Death.
When a person suffers a Cardiac death, the heart
stops beating. In India we do only brain dead do-
nations and not donation after cardiac death except
retrieval of corneas(eye) and rarely heart valves.
Brain Death
Brain death is defned as irreversible loss of
function of brain including loss of brain stem func-
tional activity that means a person cannot breath or
have any bodily movements. Brain death usually
results from a severe brain injury or brain haemor-
rhage. This can happen after a major road accident
or a bleeding in the brain due to stroke. Brain death
is different from being in a Coma, or in a Persistent
vegetative state, in brain death there is no possibil-
ity of recovery, and the patient is clinically and
legally dead.
To certify brain death, four doctors should sign
the legal certifcate.They include the medical prac-
titioner incharge of the hospital, a medical practi-
tioner and a neurologist nominated bythe hospital
and approved by the appropriate government au-
thority, and the medical practitioner treating the
patient The doctors should carry out the frst and
second med-ical examinations with a time gap of
a minimum of 6 hr be-tween the two examinations
before brain death is confrmed.
Consent
The frst degree relatives of the brain dead pa-
tient has to give the consent for organ retrieval in
the presence of two witnesses in the prescribed
form .Regarding consent different countries have
different approaches ,some countries practise man-
dated choice. Under this strategy, every citizen
would have to indicate their wishes regarding or-
gan transplantation,perhaps on income tax forms
or drivers licenses. When a person dies, the hospi-
tal must comply with their written wishes regard-
less of what their family may want.The positive
aspect of this strategy is that it strongly enforces
the concept ofndividual autonomy of the organ
donor.A mandated choice policy would require
an enormous level of trust in the medical system.
People must be able to trust their health care pro-
viders to care for them no matter what their organ
donation wishes.Some European countries practise
presumed consent for increasing organ donation.
In countries with presumed consent, their citizens
organs are taken after they die, unless a person spe-
cifcally requests to not donate while still living.
Advocates of a presumed consent approach might
say that it is everypersons civic duty to donate
their organs once they no longer need them (i.e.

after death) to those who do. People against pre-
sumed consent would argue that toimplement this
policy, the general public would have to be educat-
ed and well-informed about organ donation, which
would be diffcult to adequately achieve.Doubters
of the presumed consent approach might also argue
thatrequiring people to opt out of donating their
organs requires them to take actionand this might
unfairly burden some people. In India we practise
a system called required request.We have to ask for
the consent of the relatives(legal possessor of the
body) to retrieve organs for transplantation.
Process of organ retrieval
The organs have to be retrieved soon after the
second brain death declaration because after brain
death somatic death (cardiac arrest) can occur at
any time making retrieval of organs impossible.
The process may take between 3-9 hours. There is
no cost borne by the Donor or his/her family. The
hospital takes care of all the logistics and details
as the transplant coordination team carries out the
entire process till the relatives receive the body of
the deceased. The deceased body is given back to
the family in a dignifed way. There is no disfg-
urement. The body can be viewed as in any case
of death and funeral arrangements need not be de-
layed or changed.
Each country has specifc protocol for organ do-
nation. It would be feasible if the individuals know
about the residing countrys protocol for organ do-
nation
Donor Card
By signing donor card you are just expressing
your wish of organ donation in the event of your
brain death but it doesnt imply that your organs
will be retrieved when your admitted in a brain
dead state.As mentioned earlier hospital authority
have to get consent from the relatives for organ re-
trieval.
The medicolegal procedures in cases of accident
victims follows the same procedures of inquest and
post-mortem as in any other case.
Mrithasanjeeavani
For promoting deceased donation in Kerala ,Govt
of Kerala launched MRITHASANJEEAVANI
life after death program.Prof.Ramdas Pisharody
,The Principal Govt Medical College was appoint-
ed as Convenor and myself as Nodal Offcer for
the implementation of the program. Policies need
to be aimed at both increasing organ donations as
well as creating a system that allocates them in the
fairest ways possible.With this objective in mind
we conduct awareness program,maintain an online
registry for wait listing the recipients and moni-
tor all the transplant related activitees of transplant
centres.
Being a human being we all have a chance to
give others hope and love. Organ donation is one
of the noblest things that you can do after taking
the last breath of your life. Many generous and re-
sponsible human beings have made a great deci-
sion to donate their organs after death. It has given
hope and life to people who were in great agony.
Only people with true self respect can understand
the pain of the fellow beings. Taking initiative to
support a good cause will generate you as a model
for the society. Sail with freedom to heaven with-
out taking any regrets. Let you take the pride and
fall in the hands of God. Be an insightful individual
and open your heart and eyes towards people who
are waiting for a second chance in their life. If
you never utilize your opportunity to donate your
organs, you may not lose anything but some of the
people will lose their babies, children, mothers,
fathers, sisters, brothers, friends, spouses, aunts,
uncles, colleagues, good leaders, young adults..
(list is infnite) who are waiting to get a second
chance to breathe. Share your organs and let your
life, light a life. Wiping off the sorrow and flling
compassion in others is a righteous accomplish-
ment. Time will not wait for any one. Take right
decisions at right time inform your family about
your consent for donating you organs. Convince
them and spread the message.

We parents gave serious concern about our new
generation kids like they being spend less time
in nature than what we ourselves did during our
childhood days. We blame disappearing access
to natural areas, distraction from television, per-
sonnel gadgets and computers, more homework,
and lack of resources and most importantly the
time factor. This also leads to rapid increase in
childhood obesity that the current generation of
children faces. When modern parents thinks that
these are the challenges which we need to ad-
dress with, we should also look at the other side
of our society where we got a section of weaker
class. The financial weakness of these section
leads their kids to child labour. There is also a
parent and child in them.
Each child is a hidden gem and we need to in-
vest to develop and explore to make them shine
better. A ban on child labour has come into ef-
fect but the law does not hold much hope for the
millions of children toiling day and night for a
pit end. Life for them is still a struggle. The rea-
son for that is still the financial weakness of their
parents and proper support and guidance from
the society.
Child labour is a curse to our society and a
crime against humanity. Children work when
they are supposed to go to school or play. The sad
thing is that they work under hazardous condi-
tions. Though acute poverty is the main cause for
child labour throughout the world, everybody-
society, parents, governments, individuals, low
wages, unemployment, poor standard of living,
deep social prejudices and backwardness are di-
rectly responsible for child labour in India.
Child labour, although more prevalent in de-
veloping countries, is definitely a universal phe-
nomenon. According to the World Labour Report,
child labour is considered as forced labour
because children are rarely in a position to give
free consent to any activities performed by them.
While poverty persists in India, child labour can-
not perhaps be totally removed.
The Government alone cannot deal with such
an issue and a change in attitude is needed to
eliminate or reduce this menace. Instead of blam-
ing the Government and society, each parent can
play a vital role by starting sponsoring a child to
an extent which he can. This can include helping
in books, food, schools fee etc.
While managing with all our challenges we
have to tackle, a new effort and fresh thinking
should start from us which in turn leads to eradi-
cate child labour and discover the gem in them.

Jichar Bharathi Kuwait, an affiliate to
SevaDarshan (Indian Embassy registered
organi:ation, 2005) is the intellectual platform for
like-minded professionals, manifesting the
unification of refined thought process, with the aimto
be the trigger in reforming the society. JB, Kuwait,
keeps a firmconviction that nation building and man
making cannot be achieved unless we nurture our
potentials fromthe roots by exploring the potential of
rich Indian philosophy, culture and tradition.
Youth is a spark which grows into bla:ing
flame. Guiding and developing the youth in the right
direction will certainly be beneficial not only for the
family, but more so for the society and our nation as a
whole. YuvaDarshan, the youth wing of
SevaDarshan Kuwait stands for Indian youth to
:Lead the Leaders Of 1omorrow's India'.
The global world has recogni:ed and
acknowledged the potential of India and declared
that India is on the crossroads of its way to be a
superpower by the year 2030. At this fast pace of
growth and overall development, we have no doubt
that India will become the intellectual hub in the near
future. Foreseeing the impending prospect to be the
best and the leaders, it is the foint responsibility of
parents and the society to empower our youth to take
up the challenge. Along with ensuring quality
education, our youth should be appropriately guided,
trained and molded into a competent personality.
th
While India is Celebrating the 29 National
th
Youth Day on Jan 12 , the birthday of Swami
Jivekandha,JicharBharathi, foining hands with
Yuva Darshan takes the social responsibility by
organi:ing a day long youth camp, "YUJA FOR
IADIA", to provide needed guidance and training
for the integrated development of Indian youth in
Kuwait. Our vision is 1o Empower the Indian Youth
to Lead theWorld by 23.
Let us foin hands in this endeavor so that
together, we will achieve our primary goals of
empowering our youth for a better and more
progressive India.
