The Mind (A Great Lesson)

 The Mind

Adi Sankara was walking through the market place with his disciples. They saw a man dragging a cow by a rope. Sankara told the man to wait and asked his disciples to surround them. "I am going to teach you something" and continued... "Tell me who is bound to whom? Is the cow bound to this man or the man is bound to the cow? The disciples said without hesitation, "Of course the cow is bound to the man! The man is the master. He is holding the rope. The cow has to follow him wherever he goes. The man is the master and the cow is the slave." "Now watch this", said Sankara and took scissors from his bag and cut the rope. The cow ran away from the master, and the man ran after his cow. "Look, what is happening", said Sankara  "Do you see who the Master is? The cow is not at all interested in this man. The cow in fact, is trying to escape from this man."   This is the case with our MIND. All the non-sense that we carry inside is not interested in us. WE ARE INTERESTED IN IT,  we are keeping it together somehow or the other. We are going crazy trying to keep it all together under our control.   The moment we lose interest in all the garbage filled in our head, and the moment we understand the futility of it, it will start to disappear. Like the cow, it will escape and disappear."   We can allow disappearing, all the unwanted things in our mind and feel relaxed.   'Have a Great Day'

 

 

Japanese way of cost efficiency .

For those tired of writing useless status reports and attending review meetings with coffee and biscuits……

Japanese way of cost efficiency 

The Taj hotel group had invited Mr. Masai Imai from Japan to hold a workshop for its staff. 

The staff members were very skeptical - the hotel is doing excellent business, this person from Japan has no exposure to hotel industry - what exactly is he going to teach? 

But everybody gathered as planned for the workshop in the conference hall sharp at 9 am. 

Mr. Masai was introduced to them - a not so impressive personality, nor the English all that good; spoke as if he was first formulating each sentence in Japanese and then translating it into rather clumsy English. 

"Good morning! Let's start work. I am told this is a workshop; but I see neither work nor shop. So let's proceed where work is happening. Let's start with the first room on the first floor." 

Mr. Masai, followed by the senior management, the participants, the video camera crew trouped out of the conference room and proceeded to the destination. 

That happened to be the laundry room of the hotel. 

Mr. Masai entered the room and stood at the window, "beautiful view!" he said. 

The staff knew it; they need not invite a Japanese consultant to tell them this! 

"A room with such a beautiful view is being wasted as a laundry room. Shift the laundry to the basement and convert this into a guest room." 

AaHaa! Now nobody had ever thought about that!

The manager said, "Yes, it can be done." 

"Then let's do it," Mr. Masai said. 

"Yes sir, I will make a note of this and we will include it in the report on the workshop that will be prepared." Manager 

"Excuse me, but there is nothing to note down in this. Let's just do it, just now." Mr. Masai. 

"Just now?" Asked the Manager.

"Yes, decide on a room on the ground floor/basement and shift the stuff out of this room right away. It should take a couple of hours, right?" asked Mr. Masai. 

"Yes." Manager. 

"Let's come back here just before lunch. By then all this stuff will have got shifted out and the room must be ready with the carpets, furniture etc. and from today you can start earning the few thousand that you charge your customers for a night." 

"Ok, Sir." The manager had no option. 

The next destination was the pantry. The group entered. At the entrance were two huge sinks full of plates to be washed. 

Mr. Masai removed his jacket and started washing the plates. 

"Sir, Please, what are you doing?" the manager didn't know what to say and what to do. 

"Why, I am washing the plates", Mr. Masai.

"But sir, there is staff here to do that." Manager Mr. Masai continued washing, "I think sink is for washing plates, there are stands here to keep the plates and the plates should go into the stands." 

All the officials wondered - did they require a consultant to tell them this? 

After finishing the job, Mr. Masai asked, "How many plates do you have?' 

"Plenty, so that there should never be any shortage." answered the Manager. 

Mr. Masai said, "We have a word in Japanese -'Muda'. Muda means delay, Muda means unnecessary spending. One lesson to be learned in this workshop is to avoid both. If you have plenty of plates, there will be delay in cleaning them up. The first step to correct this situation is to remove all the excess plates." 

"Yes, we will say this in the report." Manager. 

"No, wasting our time in writing the report is again an instance of 'Muda'. We must pack the extra plates in a box right away and send these to whichever other section of Taj requires these. Throughout the workshop now we will find out where all we find this 'Muda' hidden."

And then at every spot and session, the staff eagerly awaited to find out Muda and learn how to avoid it. 

On the last day, Mr. Masai told a story. 

"A Japanese and an American, both fond of hunting, met in a jungle. They entered deep jungle and suddenly realized that they had run out of bullets. Just then they heard a lion roaring. Both started running. But the Japanese took a short break to put on his sports shoes. 

The American said, "What are you doing? We must first get to the car." 

The Japanese responded, "No. I only have to ensure that I remain ahead of you." 

All the participants engrossed in listening to the story, realized suddenly that the lion would stop after getting his victim! 

"The lesson is: competition in today's world is so fierce, that it is important to stay ahead of other, even by just a couple of steps. And you have such a huge and naturally well endowed country. If you remember to curtail your production expenditure and give the best quality always, you will be miles ahead as compared to so many other countries in the world.", concluded Mr. Masai. 

 

  

Rumors

Once an old man spread rumors that his neighbor was a thief. As a

result, the young man was arrested. Days later the young man was
proven innocent. After being released he sued the old man for wrongly
accusing him.

In the court the old man told the Judge: "They were just comments,
didn't harm anyone." The judge told the old man: "Write all the things
you said about him on a piece of paper. Cut them up and on the way
home, throw the pieces of paper out. Tomorrow, come back to hear the
sentence."

Next day, the judge told the old man: "Before receiving the sentence,
you will have to go out and gather all the pieces of paper that you
threw out yesterday."

The old man said: "I can't do that!  The wind spread them and I won't
know where to find them." The judge then replied: "The same way,
simple comments may destroy the honour of a man to such an extent that
one is not able to fix it. If you can't speak well of someone, rather
don't say anything."

"Let's all be masters of our mouths, so that we won't be slaves of our words.

 6. You don't have to win every argument. Stay true to yourself.

 15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

 37. Your children get only one childhood.
 
 39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
 
 40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

 42. The best is yet to come...
 
 43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
 
 44. Yield.
 
 45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

Health Benefits of Eggs

 

10 Health Benefits of Eggs

1. Eggs are great for the eyes. According to one study, an egg a day may prevent mascular degeneraton due to the carotenoid content, specifically lutein and zeaxanthin. Both nutrients are more readily available to our bodies from eggs than from other sources. 

2. In another study, researchers found that people who eat eggs every day lower their risk of developing cataracts, also because of the lutein and zeaxanthin in eggs. 

3. One egg contains 6 grams of high-quality protein and all 9 essential amino acids. 

4. According to a study by the Harvard School of Public Health, there is no significant link between egg consumption and heart disease. In fact, according to one study, regular consumption of eggs may help prevent blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks. 

5. They are a good source of choline. One egg yolk has about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline is an important nutrient that helps regulate the brain, nervous system, and cardiovascular system. 

6. They contain the right kind of fat. One egg contains just 5 grams of fat and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat. 

7. New research shows that, contrary to previous belief, moderate consumption of eggs does not have a negative impact on cholesterol. In fact, recent studies have shown that regular consumption of two eggs per day does not affect a person's lipid profile and may, in fact, improve it. Research suggests that it is saturated fat that raises cholesterol rather than dietary cholesterol. 

8. Eggs are one of the only foods that contain naturally occurring vitamin D. 

9. Eggs may prevent breast cancer. In one study, women who consumed at least 6 eggs per week lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%. 

10. Eggs promote healthy hair and nails because of their high sulphur content and wide array of vitamins and minerals. Many people find their hair growing faster after adding eggs to their diet, especially if they were previously deficient in foods containing sulphur or B12.

 

To my knowledge, Egg is very good with rich protein. But after some age (like 40), if we can eat egg or eggs daily, without yolk (because it is rich with fat), it would be good.

Great

Rocking Bridge

It's made with "inflatable modules, like giant life-preservers, 30 meters in diameter" and filled with "3700 cubic meters of air." Each of them have a trampoline mesh. In the central part of each ring, a trampoline mesh is stretched.

 

Oh, and they got stairs and slides on both sides.

This bridge really rocks. A trampoline bridge! It may result in some broken necks and

 legs, that's the price you pay for having a way to cross the river Seine jumping like

 the Spider-Man. It is crossing the bridge on a newer and more playful path across

 the same river water.

It's a design by Atelier Zündel Cristea for a Paris bridge competition, which would be

 built near the existing Bir-Hakeim Bridge

Top 10 ways to relax

 Top 10 ways to relax

 

In our packed schedules, it's often difficult to take out time for your loved ones and even forget your own needs.

 

So we plod on and on, not caring how much we push ourselves and not caring about what we're doing to our body in the process. That's where relaxation comes in.

 

Read these 10 simple practical tips for a more relaxed you.

 

Laugh

 

A good hearty laugh diffuses tension and helps you relax. Scientifically, it has been proven that laughter reduces hormones like adrenaline (epinephrine) and cortisol that are responsible for creating stress. It also increases the activity of your Natural Killer T-cells, making you more immune to viral attacks and fatigue. If you find it difficult to be amused, join a humor club and spend time laughing about nothing! Or watch a funny movie or read a comic.

 

Exercise

 

You don't want to grow old before your time, do you? Given the hectic lifestyle of today, young men as old as 20 are falling prey to the risks of increased blood pressure, cardiovascular distresses and high cholesterol. Just 20 minutes of brisk physical activity stimulates the release of endorphins, improves attention and cognitive performance. So, don't wait too long to lubricate those joints. Go for a brisk walk; work out at the gym, swim or cycle. Again, you'll know best what makes you tick. Every park has regular walkers. The tragedy is that most of them are well into their retirement and are walking because the physician has advised it. You don't have to wait that long! After all, prevention is better than cure.

 

Inhale

 

Now let it out! Whether you undertake deep breathing consciously or as part of a yoga regimen, it is a great way to unwind. Focusing on your breathing and taking deep breaths pumps up oxygen into your brain, brings in a sense of peace, calmness and well-being.

 

Inhale slowly to the count of five, and exhale to another five counts. When you consciously breathe at a slow pace, you trick your body into slowing down as well. Your heart rate calms down, as does the adrenaline rush associated with stress. Repeat till you can feel your body is comfortable loose and your muscles are not bunched up with stress. Even when you are in the midst of a crisis, this simple, self-conscious technique will lull your body into a sense of peace, allowing you to take better, less emotional decisions. It only takes five minutes for you to repeat the breathe-in-breathe-out exercise enough number of times to be able to relax and think your way out of the crisis at hand.

 

Happy Thoughts

 

Flood your mind with images that promote peace and tranquility. Imagine yourself in an exotic locale or recall some of your most favourite and happy memories. Think of the good times spent with loved ones and friends. Recall your lighter moments. In short, indulge in a good old daydream. Before you know it, your muscles will have relaxed and you'll be all set to tackle the world head on!

 

Dance

 

It's not for nothing that music is one of the most often cited interests among today's generation. As the level of stress with which you are trying to cope increases, so does the gentle influence of music. While the preference of genres may differ, experiments prove that soothing music is often more successful in promoting feelings of tranquility and reducing tension. In contrast, depending on the individual, heavy metal and loud music can escalate feelings of aggression. But there's no hard and fast rule here. Just being swept off by your favourite track can detach you from the source of stress and rejuvenate you.

 

Indulge your Senses

 

Whether you are munching on your favourite food, listening to a good track, watching peaceful images, substituting the stressful stimulus for a more pleasant one can put you back on track.

 

A Nice Warm Bath

 

My granddad had a formula that he prescribed for all kinds of troubles from heartache to an arrear. Relaxing in a hot bath eases weary muscles and joints, relieves stress and promotes a general sense of relaxation and well being, besides preparing your overworked mind for a long, tight snooze! And if you can add an aromatherapy blend to your bath, then you're in for a wonderfully relaxing time! The most highly recommended blend of oils that combats stress in men is a blend of the oils of Sage, Bergamot and geranium. The synergistic blend relaxes you completely and leaves you with a woodsy after-smell something your significant other will surely appreciate.

 

A Good Long Snooze

 

Provided you aren't so stressed out that you can't sleep, a good long nap can work wonders. Ever noticed how Herculean problems diminish in size the next morning? That's because your brain has enough time to detach and distance from the stress and provide you with much needed freshness of perspective. On the contrary, lack of sleep can make it more difficult for you to cope with aggravations. Snooze mode is the prime time when your body and mind does most of its repairs and renovation. 7-8 hours of solid sleep every night reduces the risks of anxiety, heart disease, depression, hypertension, and strokes.

 

Treat Yourself!

 

When you are stressed, anxious or tense, serotonin (a brain chemical responsible for feelings of relaxation and calmness) levels tend to dip. Sweet and starchy foods increase serotonin levels, bringing about a general feeling of content and happiness. But do watch out for the calories! Herbal teas are also a great source of relaxation. Green tea in particular can have a very soothing effect. A rich source of theanine, green tea promotes the release of neurotransmitters like GABA, serotonin and dopamine, which induce a calming effect.

 

Schedule Your Day

 

Planning your day in advance keeps you in much better control of your day and events. Sure, you may be called to change your schedule as liabilities crop up, but you still have an idea of what you want accomplished. It also saves you from procrastination which can lead to higher stress levels.

 

You don't have to book yourself into a spa in the Himalayas if you feel that the stress in your life is overwhelming you. Just follow our ten Expert ways to relax (do one of them daily, if you can!) and feel yourself get calmer.

World's Greatest Jobs

 

1. Paradise island caretaker

 

Ben Southall, 34, of Petersfield, beat out nearly 35,000 applicants from around the world for the dream assignment to swim, explore and relax on Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef, while writing a blog to promote the area. He was selected for the $111,000 gig - a six-month contract to serve as caretaker of a tropical Australian island. He now has to live rent-free in a three-bedroom villa, complete with pool.

 

Before getting the job he had to spend four days on the island for an extended interview process, which required applicants to snorkel through crystalline waters, gorge themselves at a beachside barbecue and relax at a spa. He also had to demonstrate his blogging abilities, take swimming tests and sit through in-person interviews.

2. Luxury bed tester

 

A student from Birmingham City University has landed her dream job...literally! Sleeping on the job and having a lie-in will no longer be a problem for a girl, who has been selected to test out luxury beds for a month and get paid for it.

 

Roisin Madigan, 22, is earning £1,000 to sleep in designer beds every day for a month. The student is helping with a "sleep survey" carried out by luxury bed specialists Simon Horn Ltd. The company sells luxury Savoir Beds, originally made for the Savoy Hotel. General manager Craig Roylance said Roisin will not only provide an objective view of the beds on sale, but will also be part of a look into what brings a good night's sleep. She will spend 10am to 6pm in beds in the company's showroom in Edgbaston, and then will blog about her experiences.

 

3. Resort waterslide tester

 

Surely the envy of any desk-bound office worker, Tommy Lynch has travelled over 27,000 miles this year for his job, testing holiday resort waterslides. Mr Lynch, 29, works for holiday giant First Choice, checking the height, speed, water quantity and landing of the flumes, as well as all safety aspects. In 2008 Mr Lynch tested waterslides at holiday villages in Lanzarote, Majorca, Egypt, Turkey, Costa Del Sol, Cyprus, Algarve, Dominican Republic and Mexico. This year he will quality control First Choice's new splash resorts in Greece, Turkey, Florida, Jamaica and Ibiza.

 

Liverpool-born Mr Lynch, whose job title is lifestyle product development manager, was recruited to identify the very best pools to be featured in First Choice's new Splash Resort collection. He also ensures potential new resorts are up to the company's standard.

4. Professional prostitute tester

 

Jaime Rascone is no different than the rest of us in that the erstwhile DJ needs to grab the occasional odd job to make ends meet. But the Chilean lothario has beat all of us by holding the type of fantasy job that just sounds too good to be true: Quality Control in a brothel.
Rascone, an occasional male model and DJ, first happened upon Fiorella Companions in Santiago, Chile while working on a story about the country's sexual revolution. He was offered the gig by Madam Fiorella, who needed somebody to provide that final "interview" in her hiring process. It goes like this: girls who are interested in working as VIP escorts for Fiorella have to undergo interviews, psychological testing, and a photo session. The applicants are whittled down to a final six, who are then fucked one after the other in a single day by Jaime. He takes diligent notes on, say, how they moved their hips and whether their groans were adequate, and makes recommendations to the madam. There is even paperwork involved. The strain of the job is actually such that he can only do it once a month, testing around seventy girls or so a year.

 

5. Wine tester and blogger

 

Imagine moving to the heart of Sonoma County, where every day you'll come home to more than 450 wineries along the beautiful northern coast of California. Picture living rent free, learning the intricacies of making the perfect wine, and capturing and sharing the entire experience for your network of Twitter followers. Now imagine getting paid $10,000 a month to do it. Listening? Hardy Wallace of Atlanta, the first person to submit his application, was the winner for the position at Murphy-Goode Winery— a $10,000 p/mo for six months, rent-free job updating Twitter and Facebook with his winery lifestream. The interview process was simple: submit a YouTube video explaining why you would be good for the job and wait to see what happens.

 

6. Candy taster

 

Another one of the world's best job has gone to schoolboy Harry Willsher, 12, chief taster in a sweet factory. Harry's job is to test top secret recipes. He got the job after winning a contest at Swizzell's Matlow to find a recruit. According to him, after his first tour at his new job, he felt like having stepped into the book Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. He wowed judges by describing the flavor and smell of his favourite sweet, the Drumstick lolly. The Derby firm, which also makes Love Hearts, Rainbow Drops and Parma Violets, has now given the youngster chief taster overalls and business cards. As well as sampling the sweets, he will also monitor their development at the company's factory in New Mills, Derbyshire. I don't know if it's the best job, but it's definitely the sweetest.

 

7. Condom tester

 

An Australian manufacturer called for applications for what it claims could be the world's best job - condom tester. Durex marketing manager Sam White was hiring Australians over the age of 18 who could apply for one of 200 positions as a condom tester. Unfortunately the position is not paid, but successful applicants would receive a free $60 selection of Durex products and will be required to provide the company with honest feedback about the products' performance. One of the lucky 200 testers would win a $1000 bonus. Maybe the bonus is not that great, but one thing's for sure - it's a job where employees won't mind taking their work home and burning the midnight oil. We are sorry to inform you applications are closed.

 

8. World of Warcraft Tester

 

Do you Play World of Warcraft? And if so, do you play well? Can you farm 200 gold an hour and hit level 80 in under 2 weeks? If the answer is yes, you can apply for the job that about 12 million players only dream about, as a Wow game tester! There are in fact several Blizzard jobs posted on their website. The Blizzard employment database has dozens of mmorpg jobs available, mostly WoW employment opportunities. They are currently hiring for several game tester positions for World of Warcraft, under the QA department.

And, yeah, you will be required to play at least four hours a day.

 

9. Director of Fun at a museum (age 6)

 

A six-year-old boy who wanted to become the director of York's National Railway Museum landed himself a job - as the director of fun. The ambitious youngster got a plum role at the National Railway Museum after applying to replace retiring boss Andrew Scott. Sam Pointon sent a handwritten letter headed "Application for director" asking for an interview at the centre, in York. The letter listed his credentials for the role, including his expertise on his train set. "I am only six but I think I can do this job," wrote Sam. "I have an electrick (sic) train track. I am good on my train track. I can control two trains at once." Staff was so impressed they appointed Sam an honorary "Director of Fun" and his job will be to bosses how he thinks they can ensure the museum is the most fun place for kids to spend a day out.

 

Ok, maybe this isn't the best job in the world for an adult, but it certainly rocks the world of a 6 year old.

 

10. Bike rider-photographer for Google Maps

 

Google (GOOG) has hired two lucky young men to ride around France on dopey looking tricycles snapping up photos of historical sites that are inaccessible by car. This three-wheeler is a sight with its long pole holding nine cameras, a GPS, a computer and a generator. But the contraption tooling around the French capital needs all that gear to do its job – adding three-dimensional images to Google's Street View Maps.

 

The riders, wearing Google tee-shirts and white helmets, are visiting well-known sites such as the Chateau de Versailles, west of Paris, the Jardin du Luxembourg on the city's Left Bank or Les Halles, in the busy centre of the French capital.
