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

"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.

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.

It is lovely, delightful, but two still remains two.” Someone loves a woman, someone loves money, someone politics; he loved Ma Kali – but love still was divided in two. Still the ultimate nonduality hadn’t happened and he was in anguish. He began looking out for a nondualist, a Vedantist – for Some person to come who could show him the path. A Paramahansa named Totapuri was passing. Ramakrishna invited him to stop with him and asked, ”Help me to have darshan of the one.” Totapuri said, ”What’s difficult in that? You believe there are two, so there are two. Drop the belief!” Ramakrishna replied, ”But dropping this belief is very difficult – I have lived with it my whole life. When I close my eyes the image of Kali is standing there. I drown ...
