Agra:

Medical colleges in Uttar Pradesh will have a facility of organ donation by the end of next year, said Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Saturday.

The Health Minister, who was in Agra to attend an organ donation programme organised on the eve of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday on Sunday, said the medical colleges would have a facility to retrieve or transplant organs when it is donated by any donor.

"Financial aid would also be provided to improve this facility in the medical colleges," he said.

Mr Mandaviya earlier led around 8,000 people in taking a pledge for organ donation at the GIC ground.

"In the organ donation programme, there were more than 8,000 people who pledged to donate their organs and also registered themselves in the National Organ Donation Registry," he said.

The Health Minister, who also inaugurated a super speciality wing at the Sarojini Naidu Medical College (SNMC), said that people from Agra and the nearby districts would benefit from it.

"It will help them to get treatment in Agra," he added.

Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare S P Singh Baghel, highlighting the benefits of the organ donation programme, said it is important to donate organs to save the lives of people.

Baghel added that awareness should be spread in this regard.

The local residents of Agra turned out in large numbers to attend the organ donation programme. A local resident posted the certificate of the programme on his social media handle to make others aware about organ donation.

The health ministry will on Sunday introduce the 'Ayushman Bhav' campaign - to ensure optimum delivery of health schemes to every intended beneficiary, including those in the last mile - during the 'Seva Pakhwada' starting on the prime minister's birthday.

Osho Quotes on Meditation

Osho Quotes on Meditation If tea-drinking can become a meditation, then anything can become a meditation — cooking or washing your clothes, any activity can be transformed into meditation. And the real sannyasin, the real seeker, will transform all his acts into meditation. Only then, when meditation spreads over all your life, not only when you are awake in the day — slowly slowly it starts penetrating and permeating your being in sleep too — when it becomes just part of you, like breathing, like your heartbeat, then, only, have you attained to the discipline, to the essential discipline of Zen. Meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself. The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That’s what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state. Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on

33 Crore Gods (Devi / Devtas) of Hindus

33 Crore Gods of Hindus For the believers of God, it is an accepted faith across the globe that God is one. Hindus too believe so, but then there remains a question often shaped as a mockery over Hindus about the various practices of worship rendered to innumerous God in their faith. And this question is often thrown by people, who are philosophically and religiously recognized. How come Hindu religion has 33 crore Gods? Is it sensible at all to believe and practice this? I have a question – How can one decide what is sensible and what is not, particularly when none of those great thinkers have attained perfection in realization of God, none of them have seen God, none of them have heard God. There are numerous instances where religion, religious books and their beliefs have tried to define God. Criticism is an easy thing to do but we have coins with two sides always. Realization of the positive side and its practice is not only hard to recognize but difficult to accept as well. Critic

Osho on Witnessing technique

Osho on Witnessing technique – You can witness breathing, you can witness the thought process in OSHO INSIGHTS ON MEDITATION Osho – Societies will come and go. You will take birth and you will die and many lives will come and go, and many, many clouds will pass through you. But the inner sky – AKSHAT – remains uncorrupted, virgin. But you can become identified with clouds. You can begin to feel that ”I am the clouds”. Everyone is identified with his own thoughts which are nothing more than clouds. You say, ”my thought,” and if someone attacks your thought, you never feel that your thought is being attacked – you are being attacked. The sky is fighting – fighting for clouds because some cloud has been attacked. The sky feels, ”I am attacked!” The sky was there when there was no cloud, the sky will be there when there is no cloud. Clouds add nothing to the sky. And when clouds are no more, nothing is lost. The sky remains itself totally. This is the nature – the inner sky, the inn
