Some time ago I was informed that my version of LOTUS GITA- A PATH TO SALVATION has been identified as a spam. It was not a strange preposition for me. Because thousands of millions people keep the book “SRIMAD BHAGWAT GITA” in their houses but never read it. They think that even by touching the book they will get all the good thoughts contained in it. They worship the book but do not read it. Book Gota is GOD to them.
Conversely some literate persons find job to survey the blog sites having no knowledge and experience of life sciences. When they go through the contents of Gita mechanically without understanding the contents they term it as spam.
Spam means “flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive” This cannot be said for Gita. My attempt to translate and give the substance of Gita as Lotus Gita was with an object that this is a right time to go through the contents of teachings in Gita. Because minds of developing world is suffering from spam thoughts confusing to locate the true path resulting tensions and conflicts.
I again re iterate through this blog that contents of “SRIMAD BHAGWAT GITA” are in fact real life science. Any attempt to dislocate this idea is suicidal for a society. Some people take the thoughts propounded in SRIMAD BHAGWAT GITA as religious but this is not so. The thoughts are universal and secular at all.
It is advisable that some senior level mature persons having knowledge of various life philosophies should supervise the surveyors so that unnecessary comments may be avoided.

Should Tax Paid be treated as Income
TAX PAID IS NOT AN INCOME
Every year they call suggestions from public when they are to put the yearly budget in the Parliament as if they really consider all the suggestions from public. I also complete the formality to send my single suggestion each year as if that shall find place in the budget. Both parts are formal.
The Yearly budget is prepared by senior babus of the country. If some thing strikes they consider. It is very much right that a policy is fixed by the people’s Representatives before finalizing the outlines of Budget. Every exercise is done in the name of the welfare of the nation.
I had been a civil servant for a long time and that year I found myself puzzled when my annual income crossed the figure fixed for non income tax payees. Since than my concentration had always been towards that minimum tax should be levied and for that purpose so many investments like P.F. Deposits, Insurance etc. and keeping their accounts had been a boring story. Now my only agenda after retirement is that pay the due tax simply and do not invest any where for the purpose of saving tax.
Every year I urged to the Minister and officials that Tax is on the income. But tax paid by an assessed should not be deemed to be an income. That amount which has been paid as income tax should be deducted from income. That will be a great relief for income tax payee. Similarly other taxes like sales tax, entertainment tax, customs etc. etc. should also be taken as minus income for individuals and traders to some extent.
The suggestion is innovative with a view that tax payees in such case will honestly deposit the tax to get the relief and traders will adopt more regular approach to save income tax. I think this time this Blog will approach to common persons for making pressure for the demand. I beg excuse from professional thinkers who always think in the terms that if the idea has not come from their brain then that is a flop idea.

We should also be careful about Rural Economy
COW DUNG PAPER AND ALLIED PRODUCT PROJECT
The international demand for handmade paper and its value-added products are increasing. Entrepreneurs are being looked upon with the maximum growth potential in handmade paper industry.
Paper from Cow Dung
Since the cow dung contains approximately 40-48% of fiber that can be used to manufacture hand made paper singly or with the combination of other fibrous agro product like leptidania (Kheemp), AAK and/or cotton rags. Because Raw material here in this case is either free of cost or very cheap Gau Shalas (COW PROTECTION CENTERS) and Big dairies in rural area can establish the Hand made Paper unit as additional money making unit within their business. The machinery cost though differs from nation to nation still that may be a very viable unit for any country particularly in rural areas. In India we calculate the maximum cost for a unit Rupees 15 Lacs besides cost of land.
One thousand cows give us on and average 2500 kg of dry dung that can be converted into 1000 kg of pure 100% cow dung hand made paper sheets. It is advisable to blend the cow dung with banana fiber (20-25%), or cotton hosiery cuttings (40-50%) to obtain best quality of hand made paper. Such papers can fetch a substantial income. Thus we get 1200 to 1500 kg (80 to100 Rims) of hand made paper fetching Rupees 160000.00 to 200000.00 per day.
It is pertinent to mention here that we have to use 40 to 48% of cow dung for manufacturing hand made paper. Rest of the cow dung (52 to 60%) can very well be used to manufacture bio gas and than for fertilizer purposes.
Expenses wise estimates are very clear. On raw material we have to put nothing. 200 kg of banana fiber may cost Rs 20000, 400 kg of Hosiery cuttings may cost Rs 6000-00. we have to use some 4% chemical to separate lignin portion of the fiber and bleaching agent to decolorize the pulp. Alternative use of Kheemp fiber or AAk fiber have negligible cost however we will pay to the villagers for AAk or Kheemp Rs 2 per Kg. if they bring lots. We have to keep 4 workers semiskilled and 1 unskilled_ one technical supervisor and a manager/Administrator per day wages for them will not exceed Rs 10000/-. Thus profitability can be esteemed.
Handmade papers made from cow dung have an elegant appeal and an exquisite surface for writing. Skilled makers use a variety of raw materials for making handmade papers. We will use all the techniques for manufacturing all types of hand made paper for marketing. The plus point with us will be the publishers of all the religious books, Gita, Ramayan and Puraans will like to print those scriptures on Cow Dung paper. That will be a most sacramental and attraction of every Hindu house in the world.
Cow dung Hand made paper can be manufactured in appealing varieties, with small dried flowers and leaves, colored fiber etc., making them attractive. It's popularity will be increasing day by day due to the effective inbuilt qualities as it has huge tensile, bursting, tearing and double fold strength as compared to mill paper and it does not turn brittle due to aging. More so ever it is termite free. The possibilities for what can be accomplished with handmade paper and paper pulp are limitless. These are effectively used in making a variety of decorative items, Marriage invitation cards, greeting cards, wallpapers, carry bags, gift boxes, art portfolios and much more. Also in the stationery field many items like paper letterheads, visiting cards, envelopes, note pads, memo cubes and many more items are seen to be made of handmade paper. A wide range of raw materials, such as bamboo, wood grass, rice and wheat straw, jute, rags and waste paper may also be blended with cow dung to manufacture variety of other items.
The pulp and paper industry in various parts of the world has recently experienced enormous growth, coupled with consolidation due to the value addition activities like embossing embroidery on handmade paper etc. and that generates more local employment; it is an environmentally sound technology, depleting less resources and causing less pollution than paper mill factories; and it can produce certain specialized varieties of paper, for example, watermark, filter paper and drawing sheets, etc. The cost difference between handmade paper and mill made paper is marginal.
The concern about the disappearance of forests, coupled with renewed interest in the quality of papers generated new study of the paper maker's materials, especially the pulps and fibers. With several technological changes taking place in the paper industry, the governments all over the world have to rethink their land use policies and conservation strategies to protect the natural resources. The international demand for handmade paper and its value-added products are increasing at an approximate rate of 30-35 percent a year, which is phenomenal, compared to five-seven percent a decade back. The growing preference for environment-friendly products worldwide and increasing demand for handmade paper products have eradicated the limitations of the handmade paper industry and once again it has emerged as one of the market leaders. In the era of globalization, handmade paper is one of the prime sectors, which has a major say.
Besides hand made paper the local resources added with the cow dung and lime may be used to manufacture building material like bricks, Particle boards, varnishes, paints and distempers etc.
All these may bring the drastic change in the rural economy.
The details may be drawn about the cost factor and profitability according to the place where the project is to be established.

Thought of an idiot animal
ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE SELFISH
There was a old donkey in the house of a professional mason. The Mason was the owner of that donkey. The services of donkey were utilized by that mason in fetching weights and luggage for years altogether. After a long service the donkey became old and weak.
The mason brought another young donkey and left old donkey to wander here and there. The old donkey was virtually neglected.
One day the old donkey fell in a dry well near his owner's house. This news was conveyed by a neighboring child to the mason. The mason went to the place of incidence and saw there the desperate donkey trying to come out of the well but all in vain. The poor animal could not come out even with the help of mason.
The mason even called other persons to help but the donkey was unfortunate. After a prolonged try when the donkey could not come out, all the persons there collectively decided to bury the donkey alive in that well so that another animal or any other person may not fell next time.
Persons there started to execute their plan. Buckets were collected. Turn by turn every one engaged himself in throwing sand in the well to bury the poor old donkey. All the persons there were happy with their decision that such incidents will not recur in future.
On the other side in the well the donkey when felt that sand is being hurled to bury him alive, with every bucket of stand he shivered and make himself able to stand on the thrown sand. Every dying creature makes his last effort to live on this earth.
Two three hours of collective sand throwing filled up the well but people saw the old donkey over the sand. The mason owner of the donkey was pleased to see his old donkey alive. He went near the donkey. He saw in the eyes of the donkey. There were tears in those eyes. The donkey also saw the Mason and the other persons and left the well premises walking toward forest for its unknown destination as if saying that all human beings are selfish.
