Hair fall
Just Think…
Blast from the past…
(1) One desiring happiness should strive after a perfectly contented disposition and control himself, for happiness has contentment for its root, while the root of unhappiness is discontent.
(2) It is much better to acquiesce than to engage in angry words and fruitless contention.
(3) Words of contempt should not be spoken, even to the meanest.
(4) That code of conduct, which avoids all desire, anger and offensive speech, deserves to be called DHARMA.
(5) As one acts according to ones conduct, so does he become. The doer of good becomes good; of evil, evil. One becomes virtuous by virtuous acts and wicked by wicked acts.
(6) It is to perceive the avoidable in others and difficult to see them in ones own self. Indeed one spreads out the avoidable in others like chaff, and then conceals them in one?s own self like a wicked gambler hiding his foul throw.

Rest in peace Cj-15
One of the greatest SHOW-JUMPING HORSES of the country —CJ -15, a familiar face at the Dasara Torchlight Parade here (Mysore), died an orphan on Sunday(27/07/2014), at the Pinjarapole, where it was left by the mounted police, hardly a week ago. The horse, which was ridden by former Commandant of Mounted police, Maribha Shetty, and participated in many international and national equestrian events, won 33 shields and 50 medals.
However, Mounted police Commandant, S. Janardhan, blamed his predecessor for the lack of facilities to look after aged horses. His predecessor headed the department for more than 25 years. Isn”t this shameful ?
