Dear Readers,
Each soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest the divinity within by controlling nature external and internal. ----
Swami Vivekananda
In kath upnishad there is story of a brilliant boy Natchiketa who wanted to meet Yamraj and asked him about the mystery of death. Initially Yamraj declined but Natchiketa was not an ordinary boy he stood firmly on his stand and he succeeded in getting Yamraj bent down. Yamraj disclosed the mystery of death in this word. He said --- Our body is like a chariot. This chariot has five horses which are our sense organs; eyes, ear, tongue, nose, and skin. The horses are controlled by our intelligence. If the horses are broken and if the charioteer is asleep then chariot can not reach its destination or the horses are not disciplined and the intelligence cannot discriminate between good and bad one cannot reach the goal of human life. This answer satisfied Natchiketa
This mystery became truth of life for Natchiketa and after thousand of years this knowledge is still a basic truth for today’s youth who are trying to develop healthy life.
This small but esteemed group called Study circle is trying to develop strong and beautiful character among youth through knowledge sharing as Natchiketa did. Same beautiful glimpses you will find in this issue of SAMAR.
Yours truly,
Editor
