Welcome to online Kavi Sammelan by Poetess Asha Pandey with RJ Ramesh on Radio Madhuban 90.4 Fm. Poetess Asha Pandey is basically from Udaipur in Rajasthan. Firstly, she thanks RJ Ramesh for spreading awareness of Corona virus to people through Madhuban Radio. In the words of Poetess Asha Pandey through her poetry, "At present there is no cure for corona virus and every developed country whether America, China, Japan or any other country is affected by this virus. Our Government is working very hard to overcome this disease. Doctors and Police have taken a bold step to protect people at the cost of their health." She salutes all those people including Doctors, Police, administration, etc who are taking risk and preventing us from such spread. One shouldn't throw stones on Doctors or Police or do misbehavior towards them. She also tried to say through her poetry that Government or Doctors or Police alone can't do anything unless we don't protect ourselves. At the end of her poetry, she concluded requesting people to hide at home and conquer this enemy who is roaming outside.
1. It is heartening to note
the positive impacts of lock down in India and across the world in recent past
2-3 weeks in Mar &Apr 2020 since imposition of lock down in our country on 25 Mar 2020.One will be
surprised to know the positive impacts of lock down when everywhere corona virus
is taking toll of humans of all ages. There are mainly two broad fronts where
we are seeing the positive impact due to lock down.
1.On
environment2. On Individuals –
On
Environment
i.Air Pollution –
The greatest
positive impact of lock down in our cities and also across the world saw air
pollution levels plummet. Now we breath clean and fresh air. Reduction in PM
2.5 and NO2 registered in most of the countries.
e.g 21 Indian
cities come out of top 30 worst polluted cities of the world. But the air
pollution dropped in all our metro/major cities even in the 2nd week
of 21 days lock down.
Delhi’s air
pollution levels fell in category of good about a week back as per newspaper
report. Delhi’s AQI (Air quality Index) improved since lock down from severe 200
to on a good day (anything more than 25 is considered unsafe as per WHO).
Nowadays typical AQI is around 30.The general air pollution drop was around
71%.
We all know
that It was because of all vehicular movement stopped, industries and
construction were shut down all across the country.
All this drop
in air pollution has been noticed in all countries. NASA
(US) and European Space Agency satellite pictures clearly show significant drop
in NO2 levels over India, China, Italy, France and other European countries.
ii.Clearer water-
Water in
river has become clearer. People might have seen the visuals of cleaner river
Ganga at Kanpur and Varanasi. Even fishes are seen near Varanasi Ghats now.
There are
reports that water of Delhi’s river Yamuna has also started to appear cleaner.
iii.Clear Blue Sky-
Not only
Delhi experiencing cleanest skies in years, residents of Jalandhar in Punjab
woke up to an incredible sight of distant The Dhauladhar mountain range in H.P.
These peaks are 120 miles away and had not been sighted on Punjab horizon since
last 30 years.
iv.Noise Levels-
CNN reported
30-50% reduction in noise levels. Now you can hear the voice of neighbourhood
birds from balcony of your house.
v.Positive effects on climate change
Environmentalists
are saying that there are positive impacts on climate change also.
vi.Clearer surroundings
There is vast
cleanliness in our surroundings during this period. It is difficult to believe
the pictures uploaded by people on social media.
2.On Individuals
Every one is
saying that Corona virus is not good but it is teaching several good things in
life. The most important ones are that
i.We all are getting plenty of time for self and for
family.
ii.Our life has become so simple whether rich or poor.
Our needs have reduced and still we are happy. Other wise we are always busy
with work and to earn more and more to meet our needs. But now we have realized
that we can live happily without running after materialistic things in life.
iii.Situations are not always as per our choice. So we
have to be mentally strong so that we face the situation easily.
iv.Every one is saying that it is normal to get scared
due to corona virus. But on the contrary we cannot afford to be under tension
and anxiety at this time as we will get influenced by the negative vibration
all around us. We can save ourselves from corona virus but can be overwhelmed by
negative vibrations if are not mentally strong.
4.Lessons
learnt
a.We can work from Home. I suppose our govt. and
private organizations will take a lesson out of it to avoid crowding at places.
b.We can enjoy local vegetables, fruits and other
grocery items instead going for costly imported food items.
c.We can save lot of money which we waste by eating
out and indulging in unnecessary purchases.
d.If we want we can reduce pollution of all types.
e.We can keep our surroundings clean if we want.
f.We can consult doctors through tele medicine/online
from home for minor ailments to avoid rush in hospitals.
A few lessons
our government should also take.
1.Our public healthcare system needs to be totally
revamped and overhauled to handle such situations in our country in future.
2.The essential supply of daily needs also needs to
be overhauled to enable people to get daily needs in their neighborhood.
3.Online supply system should be further strengthened
and encouraged so that one can get even daily needs while sitting at home.
4.On line payments and transfers should be made
obligatory for all employers even in private sector. Cash flow should be
reduced to bare minimum for all.
Today corona is a name of fear in all our Human beings people are very sacred even anyone in home start coughing other pay attention and get away from home...after some time they come to door and ask hello is their everything fine or should i call doctor ?
This all the things are today created by Media today media as multiple channels if all channels show one thing and it makes a big different on the human mind and as time goes longer and longer the things if we do not settle fast than the problem will become more and more danger fear is the basic point of all disease and it create so many mental illusions and the illusions make disease in our body after a time and in other side the fearless person remains calm and quite he manage all situation in a better way and enjoy the things as they are So to be Fearless we all need a strong knowledge of truth who am i ? when we get the right Answer and after a little Practice we can get out of Fear and enjoy the truth because it is said that God is Truth and Truth is God
Prof Gajendra Kumar was interviewed by RJ Ramesh on Indian heritage & culture in Radio Madhuban 90.4. Prof Gajendra said that he had great interest in history subject right from his childhood. It wasn't easy for him to go ahead with his interest as his family members wanted him to go for science. Because science helps in competitive exams. He said that today people want to capture whole world in their palm or concept of global village exists. Today science is at its peak level on one side and there is degradation of values on the other side. Science has its own limitations and today we can see the imbalance of nature. This resulted in the breaking of joint family. Thus, the concept of nuclear family came into existence. All elements has its place in this universe whether amoeba to human beings. Each organism has right to live. Our Indian culture teaches us about qualities like non-violence, brotherhood, good wishes for others,etc. Thus, at this moment, we need to blend Indian heritage & culture with science.
1. In view of
corona virus pandemic everyone is totally confined to our homes since lock down
was imposed in our country w e f 25th March 2020. The same lock down
condition is prevailing in 210 countries of world also due to corona virus.
At the time
of writing this blog more than 12456 people have been infected and more than
423 persons have died due to corona virus in our country. The situation across
the world is grimmer where more than 20, 94,943 people were infected and 13,569
people died due to this virus. The worst affected countries were US, UK, Italy,
Spain and France etc.
After only
2-3 weeks of lock down, reports had started pouring in electronic media about
adverse impact of lock down on health of individuals. Everyone was very scared
about corona virus infection and this was leading to tension, stress, anxiety
and depression which was reflecting upon physical and mental health of
individuals.
We had to
realize that under the given circumstances no one had any choice except to stay
inside our home for own safety and for safety of our family. However during
this period we must take some precautions so as to keep us physically and mentally
fit.
2. A no. of
symptoms are being noticed which reflect upon the adverse effects on health of
individuals.
i.Continuously worrying about self and family about
corona virus infection.
ii.Disturbance of night sleep.
iii.Change in routine of meals.
iv.Unable to concentrate and feeling uneasiness.
v.Effects more severe in elderly people particularly
having chronic illness like diabetes,high BP and heart diseases etc.
vi.Some people feeling depressed
due to lock down conditions.
vii.Increased use of alcohol, tobacco etc due to stress
by some.
3. According
to Indian Psychiatric Association there is a 20% increase in mental illness
cases in our country since 2-3 weeks of lock down. Cases are further increasing
as the no. of corona virus cases are increasing day by day. Govt. of
India has recently established a Toll-free Helpline no. 080-46110009 where any
one can seek guidance for his/her mental problems during lock down. This
helpline is established by National Institute of Mental Health and
Neurosciences (NIMHANS) Bangalore. The consultation is being provided by
doctors and trained staff of this institute.
There in
another good news that govt to is going to start telemedicine facilities for
mobile/online consultation to such patients through NIMHANS and AIIMS. It will
also help people at this hour of need.
4.Guidelines
have been issued by WHO and our Min of Health and Family Welfare in order to
handle the situation during corona virus pandemic.
i.Except for exempted category of duty personnel each
and every individual must remain at home during lock down period. Every
individual must maintain social distancing as advised by medical authorities.
ii.We should follow healthy lifestyle where our meals,
sleep and exercise etc
should be regulated.
iii.Remain in regular contact with our near and dear
ones through telephone or online.
iv.It is the right time to pursue our hobbies which
one could not pursue
due to busy schedule of life.
v.If one gets overwhelmed by scenes of death and
causalities, restrict our exposure to such news to the barest minimum.
vi.Do not indulge in excessive use of alcohol, tobacco
and other forms of drugs
just to cope up the lock down situation.
vii.If unable to cope up the situation then consult
health professional.
5. Sleep is
always a causality when a person is under tension/stress as prevailing during
lock down. For proper night sleep we must follow the advice of sleep scientists
as below.
i.Stop use of mobile, tablet and computers etc at
least 1-2 hrs before going to sleep as it affects the melatonin levels which is
closely linked to our sleep.
ii.Follow a fixed sleep routine. Sleep early around
10-10.30 PM and get up early
around 5 AM in the morn. This routine should be a
regularly instead during lock down.
iii.The food has a direct bearing on our sleep so
always eat
very light dinner at least 2-3 hrs before sleep.
iv.Follow a regular routine of exercise, yoga and any
other breathing exercises. This will improve our sleep.
v.There is a misconception among some people that
alcohol helps in getting sound sleep.
The fact is otherwise. Alcohol
consumption disturbs the Tryptophan levels in our body
thus disturbing the
night sleep. One does not feel refreshed after a full night sleep.
vi . Restrict coffee consumption after 5-6 PM in the
evening. Coffee contains certain
chemicals which create alertness in brain. It
disturbs night sleep.
vii.Last but not the least, do meditation for 5-10 min every morn and 5-10 min every even. Rajyog is the best form of meditation which
is taught by Brahmakumaris.
One can learn it by watching in YouTube. Later one
can learn it at our nearest
Bramkumaris centre free of cost.
The medical
science has now proved that meditation not only improves our sleep
but also
your overall physical and mental health.
So by following
simple techniques suggested by sleep scientists one can overcome the problem of
disturb sleep.
In the end,
as we all know we are going to face new challenges in post corona virus pandemic life so we have to keep ourselves more physically and mentally fit to face the
new challenges in life.
