Flag Hoisted In Bihar Hindi Sahitya Sammelan

Patna Correspondent: Celebrating Republic Day, the national tri-color was hoisted in the Bihar Hindi Sahitya Sammelan premises in Kadamkuan by the president in-charge Haridwar Pandey followed by salute and national anthem.  In a brief address to the audience Mr. Haridwar Pandey stressed the need to recognize the importance of Hindi language.

Founded in 1918, by a group of leaders with a mission to popularize Hindi across the world this Bihar Hindi Sahitya Sammelan is the 2nd of its kind in the world after the Prayag Hindi Sahitya Sammelan. India’s first president of India, Dr. Rajendra Prasad was its patron and president in 1926. Rahul Sankrityayan, Ramdhari Singh Dinkar and Laxmi Narayan Sudhanshu are some of the great name associated with this heritage of Hindi language.

Citing some examples which were as plain as a pikestaff, the 70 years old Prime minister of the BHSS underscores that Hindi being a language of International appeal has an inherent quality to observe other language in it. Similarly it gets easily intermingle with most of the language, be it English, Arabian or Urdu. Talking to our correspondent he said the world famous dictionary like Oxford and Webster’s has been taking few words from Hindi in every next edition and that’s why words like Ma, Pundits, Brahmin, Sadhu are now parts of English language.

Talking to our correspondent the Prime Minister of BHSS says that Given the constitution of India has more than a hundred amendments, we actually needed a somewhat different rule of law to focus the specific need of a poor India. He recalls that the maker of constitution of India, Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar was not satisfied him self by the format of the constitution. At some point of time Dr. Ambedkar pointed out that English men are reluctant to give us freedom and if the constitution of India won’t address their concern the freedom may be delayed by another decade. It is well known that India got Independence in 1935 itself but the English greed kept the Indian leadership in dilemma on the ground of Indian’s inability to manage this big country. Our top leadership then in hurry had no option left and hence constitution of seven other countries were brought and tried to take the best part of all of them. He pointed out were there no constraints we would have Hindi all around. Due to some constitution taboo Hindi has to cripple to grow till now, which is unacceptable.

Kundan Kumar, an active member of the working committee, of BHSS, a repository of Hindi language, expressed his resentment over government apathy towards this heritage of national and international importance. “this fund-crunch organization is running on its own and to manage finance to cater its daily need and other maintainence work we have to let a part of our building premises on rent”, said other member.

Great Display By Fine Art Student

Fine Art is definitely not everyone's cup of tea. A student of Patna Art College, Sunny has proved the quote once again. While the college was basking in the glory of a wonderful 75th anniversary amid full media attention and as the university looses its purse string for the celebration function, a 3rd year student of the same college were denied to exhibit his showpiece citing the painting he wishes to display may broadcast wrong message in society.

Not distracted by this discouraging decision of the college, Sunny kumar exhibited his portrait in a nearby deserted ground of Bengali Akhara premises, some 100 meters away from the college. "these days some youth do write the name of their girlfriends using their blood to impress them, i do it for portraying Bharat Mata, Is this my fault?", asks the young chap. 'I did my best but the college administration has not allow my art piece for exhibition' he continues.

Though nervous a bit as he attracted displeasure of some of his seniors and college administration a visually enthralled Sunny underscores the three messages inherited in his portrait. “First, I want to make people remember the sacrifice of our freedom-fighters and leaders. The blood they happily devoted to their loving country. Secondly, the jawans of India in far flung borders area are still continuously sacrificing their life for us. The 10 ml of my  blood used to make this portrait is just to show solidarity with those jawans. Third the last but not the least this portrait do broadcast message that underscores the importance of blood, hence this draw awareness for blood-donation in society”, said sunny kumar.

The 3rd year student of Applied Art Subject sunny may have failed to convince the college authorities but his never-die-spirit has engulfed the college authority in a dock where they are supposed to clarify their stand. Sunny kumar is not a new name for making news. It is this very student whose unique design on 'No-liquor Day' using waste bottles of liquors hit the media attention. A different mind with a different approach - a real cocktail for art & creativity.

Sri Sri Ravishankar Visit Patna

आज पटना वासियों को अनोखे सौगात के रूप में आर्ट आफ लिविंग के संस्थापक और महान् धर्मगुरू श्री श्री रविशंकर को सुनने का मौका मिला। मंच पर राज्य के उप-मुख्यमंत्री सुशील मोदी, विधान सभा अध्यक्ष उदय नारायण चौधरी, विधान परिषद् अध्यक्ष ताराकांत झा और स्वास्थय मंत्री अशिवनी चौबे ने श्री श्री का स्वागत फूल-माला और शाल पहनाकर किया। राज्य के कृषि मंत्री नरेन्द्र सिंह, पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री जगन्नाथ मिश्रा समेत तमाम शीर्ष लोग मंच के नीचे बने वीआईपी गैलरी में बैठे रहे।

पटना एअरपोर्ट के नजदीक स्थानीय भेटनरी काँलेज मैदान में श्री श्री को देखने के लिए हजारों की संख्या में लोगों की भीड़ सुबह ग्यारह बजे से ही जुटने लगी, हालांकि श्री रविशंकर का कार्यक्रम तय समय संध्या 4 बजे शुरू हुआ। भीड़ के अत्यधिक उत्साह को देखते हुए कार्यकर्ता कम पड़ने लगे। चीन से 35 लोगों का एक शिष्टमंडल श्री रविशंकर के दर्शन के लिए पहुंचा। चीन के कैलेंड़र बर्ष का प्रथम दिन होने के कारण उनलोगों में विशेष जूनुन दिखा। मंच पर उन्होने भगवान शिव को समर्पित एक भव्य गायन भी प्रस्तुत किया। ऑर्ट ऑफ लिविंग के टीम ने मधुर संगीत से उनके गायन को भव्यता दी।

इस अवसर पर श्री रविशंकर ने राज्य सरकार की सराहना करते हुए कहा कि प्रयास सही दिशा में जा रहें हैं परन्तु इसे अभी बहुत आगे ले जाने कि जरूरत है। लगातार तीन धंटे तक चले इस कार्यक्रम में श्री रविशंकर ने युवाओं से आह्वान किया कि वे अपने को साधारण न मानें- वे राष्ट् के निर्माता है। उन्होनें लोगों से संकल्प लिया कि वे भ्रष्टाचार के खिलाफ लड़ाई में साथ दें- और न तो घूस लें और न ही दें।

उन्होने कहा कि आप कम-से-कम महीने में एक दिन का समय दो घंटे अपने शहर पटना की सफाई को दें तो पटना चमकने लगेगा। उन्होने महाराष्ट्र के जामना का उदाहरण दिया और कहा कि जब आर्ट ऑफ लिविंग के आह्वान पर जामना शहर के लोग स्वंय सफाई के लिए निकले तो मात्र पांच दिन के अंदर शहर की गंदगी ही खत्म हो गई और वहां के मेयर ने उन्हें जनता को जागरूक करने के लिए धन्यवाद दिया। उन्होनें दिल्ली और मथुरा का भी उदाहरण दिया और बताया कि -आर्ट ऑफ लिविंग- जीने की कला है- यह धार्मिक उपदेश का मंच नहीं है। य़हां हम अपने अज्ञान, अभाव और असूयित्व को दूर करने का प्रयास करते है।

इस अवसर पर लोगों की ओर से आये प्रश्नों का जबाव भी श्री श्री ने दिया। उन्होने लोगों को वर्तमान में जीने और भविष्य की कल्पना करने को साध्य बताया। -जिसकी जरूरतें कम होंगी वही शांति प्राप्त करेगा- उन्होने कहा कि बच्चो से हमें सीखने की जरूरत है- जो कुछ नहीं मांगते हैं। -आप अपने अंदर की सफाई करें तभी मन को शांति प्राप्त होगी।
