Use of Atom


Use of Atom

होता कुणि दृष्टा कणाद ज्याचे नांव , विचारांची त्याच्या झेंप घ्यावी ज्ञानाने धाव ,
ज्ञानी आमुचे तोकडे केला न विचार , ना केला अभ्यास राहिले अज्ञानात रत ।

आधुनिक विज्ञानाचा प्रसार झाला ,  मिळाला अणु परमाणू ,
वापर झाला त्याचा मात्र,  विनाशाला आमन्त्रून ।

दिपले जग त्या तेजाने , अन जाहला हाहाकार ,
झाला थरकांप जीवांचा ,  पाहुनी तो रूद्रावतार ।

केला विचार ज्ञानियांनी ,  हा तर सहावा अवतार ,
घालू वेसण ह्या भूताला ,  होऊ ह्याच्या वरती स्वार ।

शस्त्र असते दुधारी ,  केव्हांतरी उलटून मारी ,
वापरण्या ते हितासाठी ,  वापरावी बुद्धी भारी ।

सूज्ञ पणाने केला वापर , मिळेल उर्जा अपरंपार ,
झाला जर गैरवापर ,  जगी होईल हाहाकार ।

Our Turkey Trip Recently we visited Turkey. It was a nice trip and icing on the cake was our son Vikram joining us from Philadelphia. Turkey has very rich history which is being unearthed thanks to initiative of Ataturk Kemal Pasha, a great leader and maker of modern Turkey. Istanbul is nice city though climate aws hot at this time of year. We enjoyed our visits to Topkapi Palace, Aya Sophia Museum and Blue mosque. People were friendly and food was good. Our next stop was Cappadocia where natural rock formations due to erosion from wind and rain on layered rocks is really wonderful. Mushroom rocks and cave natural and man made and Pigeon Vally were really worth seeing. Our trip to Ephesus was another plus mark. Here man made underground cities with upto eight levels are worth visiting. Tourists generally allowed up to four levels. They make us wonder about human ingenuity and also make one aware of the hardship faced by them. Overall it is a truly modern country worth visiting.

Our Monsoon Trip

Hi everybody,

Some things in lighter mood. We ( Wachak Manch ) arranged our rainy seasons trip to National Park, Borivali. Surroundings were beautiful. Verdant green everywhere as if nature has carpeted it. We went to Kanheri caves first. As always awe inspiring. From the top we could see all around and same time concrete jungle ot Kandivali and Borivali.

Pagoda at Gorai next to Esselword was very nice and shining in the shaft of Sun rays. These Vipashyana people know how to attract people. Let us hope that our leaders don’t spoil this nature by encouraging builders loby. In fact they could have done better by utilizing rights of U.L.C. to acquire more areas all over city and utilizing them to create more green zones which are not only pleasing to eyes but also are lungs of cities.

After coming down we wanted to relax by the side of Nala but forest guards objected. Our people are not disciplined and dirty the area by piling rubbish and plastics. We though annoyed had to accept that they were acting to prevent this nuisance. I hope that authorities become more vigilant in the city to improve clwanliness.

Though it was raining heavily in the morning it had stopped when we got out of cars. All of us were wishing for few lighter showers. Anyway after enjoyment and snacks we returned in the afternoon.
