When the examination is making a rat-tat to the door of every student, there will be a frightful countenance and mind will be afflicted with all sorts of numbness, dullness and insecurity. Some even get panicky and in the process, sometime commits suicide. This social phenomenon is very common all over the world. From my teaching experience for a short period, I have seen this syndrome which is prevailed even in the mind of bright students.
To overcome this situation, I have practiced the following three principles of my own doctrine of “examofearlessness psychology.”
1. Collapsing the Mind:
You have to totally collapse yourself physically and mentally in your sitting position. This means, your mind, body and your senses, all are to be relaxed to a level in which you will only enjoy with a blissful sequence. I know that it is not very easy to do so. Initially, you may not be able to do, but repetitive practices will definitely make you somewhat expert to learn this technique. To do this, you have to visualize a bag full of potatoes by closing your eyes, then, cut the seal of the bag and ensure that all the potatoes are coming out one by one. You have to do this thing in three manners i.e. prayerise, visualize and actualize. This simulation practice is to be adopted to free your mind from anxiety and make the mind tensionless.
2. Use of “examofearlessness psychology:
Before the examination, obviously, the mind will be full of “examofear psychology” like “what will happen if I do not pass, my parents will rebuke me and I will not be able to study further” and all these things will be pervasive throughout the mind with a consequence of deterioration in health also. To overcome this impasse, there is a need of chanting hymns. It will be on the lips even in the midst of the study. It must be uttered at equal interval of time,without distracting the attention from the study. Alternatively,this can be done when the concentration is losing. As stated above, the repetitive practice of this, will increase the concentration power but most importantly, it will reduce the anxiety level.
3. To activate Mind spiritually:
I do not expect that students will be so much so spiritually devoted at this juncture of their lives. But, believe me or not, all good and bright students are religious to the core. They may not be doing in the form of spirituality but they perform this activity by focusing their concentration completely so that any odd thought does not hover over their mind and in this process, they reduce their anxiety level. Even at the age of 60, I am continuously giving exams not for paper degree but for acquisition of knowledge. I follow the above principles religiously and rigorously, and so, there is no examofearlessness psychology, no anxiety and no tension on the eve of the examination. I do agree that people may react that it is very easy to say when there is no anxiety for getting good marks in exam,no need of further admission in college for higher study, as the case with me, anybody will not be perturbed. I do not agree. Anxiety is a cause and it is to be uprooted by different means and ways.The above is my theory.
I firmly believe that my student readers will be definitely able to accrue some benefit out of this posting.

Happiness quotient
Most of us have heard many times about IQ,EQ,SQ.But,I was pondering why not to deliberate about happiness quotient. Eitherway,happiness is a very seldom intangible commodity.It can not be purchased from the market,it is only to be felt,if really someone wants to feel.What are the ways to increase happiness quotient? I suggest that it is to be derived from a formula associated with any person's life cycle.
Faith is to be increased and anxiety is to be decreased,so formula is Faith-Anxiety,no sooner you try to increase your faith for everything social,material,spiritual involved with your day to day life and more importantly,for most of the part of the day, prayer should be in lip even in the midst of work, then you will find the deminishing pattern in anxiety.You will be more relaxed and intensity of happiness will be definitely increased and there is no doubt about that.

God plays with Lucifer
After a hectic day at work place clubbed with meeting, discussions and then a rigorous travelling made me completely tired both mentally and physically. No sooner, I ushered in my apartment; I get rid of tiredness by a hot bath followed by a low calorie dinner. I was relaxing with a sports journal for a while and I did not know when I slept.
I was dreaming. I saw God banished Lucifer from the beautiful cozy palace at heaven and was sent to hell as a punishment. Lucifer being a tremendous orator influenced some of his other comrades to follow him. Accordingly, Devil, Rogue, Knave and Evil along with his small retinue were his companions to hell. The place was dark, full of foul smell of dead corpses and skeletons. There was a burning lake at the entrance. Lucifer and his teams placed themselves in one corner and tried to adjust the heat of the closed dungeon. Then, Lucifer invigorated his teammates by an inflammatory speech to visit earth and to destroy the inhabitants over there.
“What is our benefit?” Devil enquired with a sullen face.
“Keep quiet, dull headed fellow. If we can destroy people and create disturbances in the earth over and above the existing so many disturbances, they will not be that much faithful to God. So, they will become more and more non-religious and slowly atheist. They will only devote to material comfort, money accumulation, wealth creation. In this way, God would lose is popularity,” Lucifer shouted and told.
“How it can be?”
“It is simple. When we will carry out our mission to create disturbances in their so-called harmonious lives, God will come in disguise to help them to destroy us. Further, the earth is not the heaven so that He can chain me to torture. On the contrary, we can create severe disturbances and in this process, there will be a civil war and many lives will be destroyed. People will lose faith in God. Devil, you are very coward, let me take opinion from my strategist Knave.
There was a sudden silence in the dungeon. “What is your opinion?” Lucifer enquired from his strategist Knave.
“Allow me to think to devise a complete plan.”
Then, I saw in my dream that Knave was whispering something to Lucifer. Immediately his countenance got blithful. Knave called Devil and other members of the team along with their retinue. The strategy was devised. They all took the disguise of learned, religious preachers and entered in the earth. Lucifer appeared in the earth in the name of Vidhata. They selected the most deprived locality where the inhabitants were not so loyal to God and on the other hand were very greedy to earn more profit as compared to their labour. Upon entering, Lucifer addressed public rallies after rallies and advised them to embrace his theory of religion and establish his idolate to worship to enjoy more prosperous lives.
He said, “All these days, you are so devoted to God. What you gain so far? And see, God is enjoying the fruits of your labour. With all your devotion, dedication, you worship the idols of God. You always remember Him with folded hands in your distress. Has he helped you? Your sufferings are increased incrementally. You get poorer to poorer. A few riches of your area of course, become millionaires and billionaires. You can watch their lifestyle. They always are very avarice. They employ your labour, your diligence, your hard work. In exchange, you get a paltry some and with a great difficulty, you are able to manage your family. You are not able to enjoy any festival, not in a position to visit any fare to purchase gadgets. What is this life you people are leading? What your God whom you respect so much is doing for your upliftment both socially and financially? Throw all these idols of God and worship me,” Lucifer mesmerized public of course, in disguise.
People were interested to hear him and flocked together in his meetings. In this way, Lucifer made a divide and rule slowly in that locality and then spread the same to other areas. Some people started keeping his idols so as to worship him. In their all endeavour, they were remembering Lucifer. The other team members of Lucifer were advocating the charismatic power of Vidhata to the groups after groups.
One day while taking rest, Knave informed Lucifer, “I have now the second phase of the strategy ready. So far, you have given speeches. Now, you ejucate them your pedantic views, love them and slowly force to quarrel on religion which is one of the burning issues in the earth today and then show your own power devilishly to carry out all types of evil works.”
“What will be the ultimate result?” Lucifer enquired.
“Sir, once the harmony is disturbed in the earth, most of the places will be pervaded by treason and bickering duly instigated by us. There would be a communal wrangling between various groups. The day to day lives would be miserable because of paucity of food, shelter and peace. The more the intensity of the wrangling, the more people would become atheist and the popularity of God would be diminished. Then, He has to surrender to you because he would not like to be unpopular with His so many disciples in earth.”
“I think, this is an excellent strategy and I believe that autocratic universe ruler is to surrender to me and call back everyone of us to the palace in heaven.”
I saw in my dream that Lucifer had influenced people so much that their devotion for him got deep rooted. They worshiped him with all their reverence. Whenever people achieved some goals, they took it granted that it was because of the influence of Lucifer’s wisdom, showing them the right path in their lives. But God was laughing sitting in his palace because people were completely under delusion and could not able to recognize the real plan of Lucifer.
Slowly, when Lucifer’s preaches were accepted by people and they developed a trust on him, Knave suggested him to implement further course of action.
“Now, you are accepted by each and every one and so, you must act on phase three of our strategy quickly.” Knave advised.
“Yes, we must carry out.”
By his inflammatory speech, people were aroused to oppose others who by now were not loyal to Lucifer. He severely instigated people to quarrel with others, fight and if required, slay for the purpose of religion. He acted in the same fashion like religious and political leaders who carried out their mission with an eye to increase their vote bank. Lucifer purposely did this to destabilize whatever left out harmonious relationship of people in the earth by provoking them and in the process, tried to destroy the popularity of God. In couple of months, there was completely violation of law, part of the earth was engulfed with anarchy, and people were fighting in between and even taking lives. There was less friendship but more hatred. Seeing all these persecution of some people to others duly instigated by Lucifer, God was terribly worried and called all his high profile ministers to attain an SOS meeting. In the meeting, Brahmha was very vociferous to teach Lucifer by chaining and then put him in the dungeon. He said that since he was not chained, he roamed freely in the earth. Vishnu, another minister proposed to kill him. There were heated exchanges in the meeting, but the ministers were surprised to see the lacklustre attitude of God.
“You people are also behaving like Lucifer. In any battle with rogues, one has to deal in with the brain but not with the heart. I have been hearing minutely and find that you all want me to act on the basis of emotional intelligence. But we have to act on the basis of wisdom. Otherwise, instead of doing well for my people, chaotic situation will be further increased.” God told to his ministers.
“You are correct,” Brahma replied which was acknowledged by Vishnu.
I saw in my dream God entered into a very religious family of a particular locality in disguise. All the members of this family believe in worshiping God and completely lead spiritual lives. Lucifer was hell bent to destroy this family and the complete locality.
When Lucifer and his retinue advised people in this locality not to worship God and insisted to become the devotees of Lucifer, some people out of fear did comply to their request, but some others turned a deaf ear and got the burnt of death in their hands. In fact, Lucifer was carrying the activities of violence, brutality and carnage in the areas where people were loyal to God. In other areas of the earth, he was preaching everyone in the disguise of Vidhata.
I further saw in my dream that Lucifer revisited the same house where God personated their one and only daughter Laxmi. He started ransacking the house, started beating the male persons and threatening them with dire consequences, if they do not start his worship with immediate effect.
Seeing the hulla-baloo in the house, Laxmi came out and enquired, “What is happening? Do you think you can overpower in this violent way?”
Lucifer replied, “I do not want to talk to any girl, please go away.”
“Let me tell you clearly, no one will worship you here.”
Lucifer was enraged and about to throttle Laxmi’s voice so as to teach her a lesson. Laxmi slapped her to make him fall flat on the ground. Lucifer could not digest this insult and cleverly changed his strategy.
“I do not want to harm you and your family members. In fact, I am only requesting your parents and others to worship me. If you do not want, no problem,” Lucifer told this and went away.
After a week, Lucifer again visited and started pampering Laxmi. “What an eye you have! You have soothing blue eyes. Your black hair which is spread through your hips makes me the remembrance of nymphs who used to dance in the palace of heaven.”
“Who has done this to you and why?” Laxmi simpered and enquired.
“I was not tolerating the autocratic power of God who used to proclaim Him as a creator of Universe. In fact by using his power, he mesmerized the innocent people of the earth and makes them to believe the same. I am pedantic more than him; only thing I have not advocated for myself. I will not force you to worship me if you support in my endeavour to eradicate the name of God completely from the earth.”
“What will be the benefit?”
“If God loses His popularity and people worship me, I will have huge devotees and will challenge God and curb his power by defeating him in a war and then reign this total universe staying in heaven.”
“I don’t think it is possible. You may convert people to worship you momentarily because that is entirely based on your inflammatory speech, alluring them for short term gain by pampering and threatening. Contrarily, God has made his base by peace, humanly love and affection.”
“I will definitely conquer. You just support my mission.”
“OK.”
I further saw that one day Lucifer invited her to visit various places in the earth for sight seeing.
After the daylong excursion, Lucifer requested Laxmi to visit his house for evening tea. She promptly agreed. He also embraced her to show his immense love for her. Laxmi was enjoying his entire flirt while relaxing with tea. In this way, their intimacy was deepened. They used to move, pass time and play together. Though, Laxmi’s family members objected for this newly developed affinity for Lucifer, but she continued to mingle with him. One fine evening, Lucifer invited all his other members for a party. He invited Laxmi also. All were busy in singing and dancing turn by turn. They were also engaged in drinking, of course without her knowledge.
The evening was very colourful and full of grandeur. All his comrades drank to their fullest satisfaction and then went outside to carry out their evil deeds. Lucifer being teetotaller was only drinking the ambrosia of Laxmi’s beauty and youthful countenance. As soon as he was alone with her, he tried to flirt little bit more and tried to touch her body against her vehement protest. He got aroused and then tried to outrage her modesty.
“How can you do this to your beloved?” Laxmi cautioned.
“But I am hungry and thirsty to drink your youth,” Lucifer replied.
He forcibly took Laxmi in his well decorated bedroom. He used all his potent to denude her and enjoy. But all his attempts failed because no sooner he took one cloth, immediately another appeared and this drama continued for a while. Initially, he could not understand this charisma, but then he understood and said, “Who are you, Sibyl?”
She put one of her legs on her head. “Don’t you know me Vidhata, the real Lucifer? I am the creator of the universe.”
This discourse enraged him so much that he was about to kill her with his sword. But, Laxmi simply bent the sword and took him in one of her palms and started flying initially slowly and then with whirlwind speed. She showed him the whole universe, flying over mountains, huge sea with bluish water and dense forest full of cruel animals.
After an hour or so, when Lucifer was damn tired and requested for water, she came down straight to a brook to allow him to quench his thirst. She was giving him a chance to express his penitence for all his evil deeds. But Lucifer was steadfast not to surrender to Laxmi mean God. She then again flew and within no time went very high.
She then enquired, “How you prefer to die? Shall I throw you on mountain or drop in the sea?”
“You cannot kill me; you do not have that power.”
God flew further high and high and reached over a rocky mountain and dropped him to put an end to his scurrilous and dreadful life.
The doorbell rang repeatedly. I got up and opened the door.
“Saheb, this is the second time, I am coming. How much you are sleeping? It is now 10.00 in the morning.”
“Oh God, what a dream it was! God plays with Lucifer.” I ran towards the wash room.
I was dreaming. I saw God banished Lucifer from the beautiful cozy palace at heaven and was sent to hell as a punishment.

Sensible and Sensual dress code
It is said that a person's outward personality is fully recognized by his dress sense.But,it is not an established fact.Other day,I was in the midst of a business deal in a posh hotel's restaurant in a good locality of Mumbai.I was in intimate communion with one of my clients to clinch a big business.Obviously we were very nicely dressed.I was as usual with a white shirt,black trouser and a red tie and with black leather shoe.This is my all time favorite dress code which is always under the sarcastic comment of my better-half.She says that people who are dull in proper dress selection,they only wear the above combination.God only can measure her intelligence.I was lucky enough on that day as I was on tour.In the midst of our discussions,a middle aged gentleman appeared in the scene and took the seat just beside us. His handsome countenance, heighted body was in no way possible to distract.Both of us, stared,but no sooner he started shouting to call the waiter,our all respect disappeared for his bad demeanor.
Not only us ,the other people who were there also got startled how an impeccable dressed with handsome appearance could behave in such an erratic manner.So, dress plus behavior both together bring the personality,not the dress alone.This is my conviction,what about you?

Unsolicited material
Apart from my day job with Anupam,I vivify my energy to write on various issues.I proclaim me as a writer of lesser God, reason of course that I am not very popular even though my articles are having the laurels of getting published in many overseas magazines.I often, have been advised by mentors that before sending any submissions to any publication,a thorough reasearch is mandatory to assess the likings and dislikings of readers of that particular magazine. But,upon my scrutiny,I find that most of the magazines are not agreeable to accept the unsolicited material. Now,there is a catch,non acceptance of unsolicited material does not mean that the magazine is not entertaining any unsolicited freelance writer.The editor is very clear in his concept to accept provided the writing material is being pitched properly and have some new dimension so as to suit his/ her readers,otherwise which editor will refuse a well crafted and professionally developed material with some new punch.I invite all new freelance writers to make a note of this posting and act accordingly.

Anger Management
People consider anger is a bad management and wrong quality of a person.No,it is a fallacy.I can tell with my full wisdom that it is good and bad.Anger in a wrong circumstance for right reason is quite benevolent for society and human being. For example,in a professioal environment,if anyone raises his alarm by showing anger for in-suboardination and sexual harrament against female workers/employees,it is not all a discouraging phenomenon. As per me, anger management shoule be divided in two categories, positive and negative.It is somewhat like positive thinking and negative thinking. Though positive thinking is always recognized, but that does not mean that negative thinking is absolutely detrimental. If anyone expresses negative anger and outbursts on someone for not a very valid reason,then it is definitely bad.But,flatly condemning anger management is bad.I can not digest. What is your opinion because I would like to debate on this subject.

Psychosomatic Drug
I was standing near a drug store in Sukhumvit,Soi 33 on one sunday to whistle away the time. The owner of the shop was somewhat known to me.It was sultry weather,road was a bit desert looking during afternoon and I was exchanging my views with the Thai gentleman Tony, the owner of the drugstore. Since,I was from India and his mother belonged to the same place,he always have a special corner for Indians.My repeated visits in his shop incresed our relationship.
I was also lazing across the width of the shop without hindering the advancement of the consumers to Tony’s shop. At half past three p.m. a beautiful, very fair complexion, middle aged woman impeccably by dressed in a black suit approached Tony.
“Sir, can I get psychosomatic drug.”
Tony stared and with a little simper “Madam, there is no drug like that.”
For a moment, she was silent, but suddenly her face became reddish and scornfully replied, “What nuisance, such a big medical store, psychosomatic drug is not available.” She disappeared almost like a whisked car.
“Have you heard such type of medicine?” Tony questioned.
“No.”
I crossed the road to enter my hotel, just opposite to his shop and I tried to recollect my thoughts about this word. I remembered that this type of drug is related to ease out the tension, anxiety, anger, and hatred but, medical practitioners write some generic name which perhaps the woman is not aware.
To my knowledge, as per Norman Vincent Peale, the most sought out author of all time indicated in his famous book “The Power of Positive Thinking” that about 50 to 75 percent people are afflicted with this syndrome. The percentage may go up now because the said statistics was of the year of 1960. But, then why we suffer from this peculiar syndrome and what is the remedy?
I have no hesitation to say that this disease is not a disease,it is a disorder in system of any person arises because of lack in mental,spiritual and physical health.Everywhere " lack " is prevalent.People harp for more comfort,new gadgets,more money,more power and many more. This unlimited desires make people bit gloomy and despondency creates anxiety,tension,mental worries and ultimatelly deterioration of all the said health is inevitable. How to sort out and overcome this obnoxious situation,any idea?
I have some ideas how to cope up this situation.It is very simple as well as very hard unless the mind is controlled.To do this,first and foremost a sincere practice is to be adopted to take God as your partner.Mostly we remember God when things are not moving in right direction or when we are too happy. Of couse, periodically,we all visit temples,masjid and churches to show our respect.But,I am telling more than that and to make him as our partner in all our day to day endeavours. One thing is to be known emphatically that God does not produce any junk and anybody and everybody can make him partner in the similar fashion as we create life partners,business partners.Only difference that in business there is anxiety,tension,jealousy,anger
nepotism,favourism,credit mongering,politics and various other factors lead to mudslinging.The same is the case in social and family relatioship.But in partnership with God,this type of phonomenon does not arise becacuse He does not involve in agrument,He does not entertain criticism and even he does not show any
special feeling for anyone.Then why to partner with him,the reason "if God be for me,who can be against me?"
When you have to collaborate the partnership with God, you have to focus all your concentration with purity of mind and affirmation on God’s blessings. One has to remember that God does not produce any junk so He accepts partnership of anybody and everybody. Though to digest this type of conceptual thinking is not so easy, but by practicing the following religious rituals, one can build this partnership like we do in business and in our life.
a) “I expect the best and with God’s help will attain the best.”
b) “After your mind is polluted with environmental emotional disturbances, you have to call for God’s support.”
c) “With God’s help I am now emptying my mind of all anxiety, all fear, all sense of insecurity. I believe that my mind is now emptied of all anxiety, all fear, all sense of insecurity.”
d) I can do all the things through God’s help to strengtheneth me.
e) “God is always there with me to help me and shows me light”
All these utterings are to be chanted each for five times after immediately you wake up in the morning and also before retiring to bed at night.
Once this is imbibed in the subconscious mind, the intensity of concentration will zoom up automatically and you will feel tranquility and serenity in your life.
Initially, this path will be full of mental thorns but by successive practices will make you perfect. If someone can follow this practice religiously and rigorously, he does not have to depend on psychosomatic drug and will lead a blissful life. It is not my pre conceived conviction but this is based on my own practices and I believe what I believe.
I was also lazing across the width of the shop without hindering the advancement of the consumers to Tony’s shop. At half past three p.m. a beautiful, very fair complexion, middle aged woman impeccably by dressed in a black suit approached Tony.
“Sir, can I get psychosomatic drug.”
Tony stared and with a little simper “Madam, there is no drug like that.”
For a moment, she was silent, but suddenly her face became reddish and scornfully replied, “What nuisance, such a big medical store, psychosomatic drug is not available.” She disappeared almost like a whisked car.
