This is not an essay that I am writing, but these are my emotions that I will pen down today.
I was born and brought up in a small town in Arunachal Pradesh called Tezu. Since my very childhood I was exposed to many different cultures, religions, languages and ethnicities. As the time passed, I learnt different languages, tasted different food and learnt about different festivals and rituals with my friends. So in that small mind of mine I came to realize that even though there are many diversities in the country but we are all united with the bond of love and brotherhood.
In the school as I grew up, I was taught about many great men and women like Swami Vivekananda, Subhash Chandra Bose, Daying Ering, Shivaji, Laxmibai, Bhagat Singh etc. In that time I realized that India is not just an ordinary country, but it is a land producing great men and brave souls who not only saved the country from the invasion of the outsiders but also took the country to new heights of success.
I still remember the date 1st February, 2003, I was 12 years old at that time, that day all the news channels were showing the news of an Indian origin woman named Kalpana Chawla. That day I learned about a brave girl of Maa Bharati. On that moment I was not only saddened by her demise, but my little heart was filled with pride for my motherland, my India.

Punyabhoomi Bharatam
When I was Principal in Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalaya at Kanyakumari, I had made it a point to go to all the classes in a week. I used to take ‘moral science’ classes. Whatever is to be told to children to mould them and develop proper attitude and good habits in them I used to tell through stories. After experimenting with various suggested courses, I came to the conclusion that a story can be the most effective tool. So, I made my plan that in each class a specific great principle of our culture should be communicated through suitable stories.

India is a Land of Yoga
From time immemorial, India has been identified as the land of Yoga, many rishis, sages and saints in Bharat practiced Yoga and enjoyed the benefits of Yoga. They have become Yogis. Yoga is both a science and art, it has been a science of this world for physical health and of the other world for spiritual health. In between, it is the science of the psyche, intellect, willpower, and devotion. So much so India itself breathes the spirit of Yoga Geographically, it is a symbol of Yoga.
A sister and a lady with the lamp
The room in Sri Ramakrishna Ashrama in Sasthamangalam appears small but bears all marks of subtle nobility.

Swami Vivekananda And The Pandemic Panic
Epidemics and pandemics have devastated the human race throughout its existence. From prehistoric times to the present modern-days we have noticed numerous pandemics and medical emergencies. While some even turned as devastating as the fourteenth century ‘’Bubonic plague ’’ which was also known as the Black Death causing millions of human lives and is regarded as one of the most fatal pandemics in human history. Some similar conditions have evolved in the last one year and especially in last month and a two due to the Wuhan originated pandemic COVID-19 as the death toll surpasses three million mark worldwide and the arrival of a new variant or what is regarded as double mutant strain of the coronavirus has just kept the public and the governments on toes throughout the globe. However, while talking about India in particular the vaccination drive has reached close to a century but with alarming hard days, we need something which can strengthen us psychologically and emotionally too. Our search can get a halt when we come across a one hundred twenty one years old ‘Plague Manifesto’ written by the warrior sanyasi Swami Vivekananda during the Bengal Plague in 1898.
