Duped on the name of Patanjali Once Shubha’s father was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), she had plans to get her father Ayurvedic treatment. She didn’t want him to go through tedious dialysis process for life. Shubha left an enquiry on https://patanjaliwellness.com for her father’s treatment in Dec’23. In no time, she got a call from 6261568491 .  It's a mystery, how someone could get her number if she has dropped an online enquiry in Patanjali's website. The person identified himself as Dr. Vijay Pratap Singh. As directed, she submitted her father’s medical reports to him. He discussed the case pretending to be a real doctor. He confirmed that the treatment is possible and mentioned that the yoga center has dialysis facility as well. He kept on following her on the phone. In Truecaller App, the number appears to be Patanjali's. See the picture below, it shows as Patanjali Ayurved Pvt. Ltd. or Patanjali Haridwar booking center These fraudsters have saved all...

Sneaky Snake Somewhere in the lap of mountains, in the rural village of Vellari, there lived closely knit families in huts with thatched roofs. In one of these huts, Swami and Shreya lived with their farmer parents – Asha and Nagraj. To have additional income, sometimes their father drove trucks. The family dearly missed him whenever he went for driving truck for weeks together. As their hut was surrounded by Uncles-Aunts and grandparents, they helped each other in daily life. One night, when Nagraj went out on driving expeditions, a slimy Indian king cobra sneaked in their hut. Asha was quick to spot it. She screamed aloud with all her might and hurried the kids outside the hut. Two of Nagraj’s brothers – Krishna and Mani, ran to their rescue. Both Krishna and Mani were opposite each other. One wanted to kill the cobra and the other feared it to be God send. He believed that if we show lit camphor to it and pray, it will go. Krishna didn’t agree, he opined what if it hid nearby ...

  The Irony! 1) If a woman is earning and taking care of household work as well as office, people say " What is there? She is getting maid's help and can spend happily as per her whims and fancies ". If someone is illiterate and does only household work depending on husband's income for expenses, people say " Poor lady. How hard she works to bring up her children. What will she do whole day? ". Though in both the cases, women are trying their best.  2) If someone doesn't know cooking and is from a village, people pity and say that poor lady she has all the life worked in fields, how she will know cooking. If an educated women tries to cook as good as possible, people say " What is there?

If a woman doesn't, people taunt " look she doesn't even know cooking, all she knows ...

 The Highs & Lows... All of us have highs and lows in life. All of us might have heard that sharing pain halves it and sharing happiness doubles. Sharing happiness indeed doubles when both the sides have positive outlook. If the happy one shares the news to show off or the listening party is full of sorrows or is simply jealous, it might not double.  The same thing happens when a person is trying to catch a breath from rock bottom. If someone is very sad within, the other person's similar sad story or success story might not motivate or inspire. Rather, it will irritate and pinch more. Neither everyone's pain is same nor the happiness.  All of us have a different magnitude of tolerance and stamina to endure the pain and celebrate happiness. No matter how better the other person proves in a difficult situation, it might not make the other to buck up or be happy if he/she is not in a mindset to do so.  Happiness might be a simple smile and at the same time, a perso...
