সংবাদ আসিয়াছে, মহাত্মা গান্ধী কংগ্রেসের নেতৃত্ব পরিত্যাগ করিয়াছেন। খবরটা আকস্মিক নয়। কিছুদিন যাবৎ এমন একটা সম্ভাবনা বাতাসে ভাসিতেছিল, মহাত্মা রাজনীতির প্রবাহ হইতে আপনাকে অপস্থত করিয়া স্বী বিশাল ব্যক্তিত্ব, বিরাট কৰ্ম্মশক্তি ও একাগ্রচিত্ত ভারতের আর্থিক, নৈতিক ও সামাজিক সমস্তার সমাধানে নিয়োজিত করিবেন। তাহাই হইয়াছে। দেখা গেল, জাতীয় মহাসমিতির সভামণ্ডপে বহু কৰ্মী, বহু ভক্ত, বহু বন্ধুজনের আবেদন-নিবেদন অনুনয়-বিনয় তাহাকে সঙ্কল্পচু্যত করিতে পারে নাই। পারার কথাও নয়। বহুবার বহু বিষয়েই প্রমাণিত হইয়াছে, অশ্রুধারার প্রবলতা দিয়া কোনদিন মহাত্মাঙ্গীকে বিচলিত করা যায় না। কারণ, তার নিজের যুক্তি ও বৃদ্ধির বড় সংসারে আর কিছু আছে, বোধ হয় তিনি ভাবিতেই পারেন না। কিন্তু তাই বলিয়া এই কথাই বলি না, এ বৃদ্ধি সামান্ত বা সাধারণ।

It is not a blind law, for no blind law can govern the conduct of living being and thanks to the marvelous researches of Sir J. C. Bose it can now be proved that even matter is life. That law then which governs all life is God. Law and the law-giver are one. I may not deny the law or the law-giver because I know so little about it or Him.
I visited the Vishwanath temple last evening, and I was walking through those lanes, these were the thoughts that touched me. If a stranger dropped from above on to this great temple, and he had to consider what we as Hindus were, would he not be justified in condemning us? Is not this great temple a reflection of our own character? I speak feelingly, as a Hindu. Is it right that the lanes of our sacred temple should be as dirty as they are? The houses round about are built anyhow. The lanes are tortuous and narrow. If even our temples are not models of roominess and cleanliness, what can our self-government be? Shall our temples be abodes of holiness, cleanliness and peace as soon as the English have retired from India, either of their own pleasure or by compulsion, bag and baggage?
પશ્ચિમના દેશમાં સાધારણ રીતે એમ માનવામાં આવે છે કે વધારે માણસનું (મૅજોરિટીનું) સુખ – તેઓનો ઉદય – એ વધારવાનું માણસનું કામ છે. સુખ એટલે માત્ર શારીરિક સુખ, પૈસાટકાનું સુખ, એવો અર્થ કરવામાં આવે છે. એવું સુખ મેળવવામાં નીતિના નિયમોનો ભંગ થાય તેની ખાસ દરકાર કરવામાં આવતી નથી. તેમ જ વધારે માણસોનું સુખ જાળવવું એવો હેતુ રાખ્યો છે, તેથી જો થોડાને દુઃખ દઈને વધારેને સુખ અપાય તો તેમ કરવામાં હરકત છે એમ પશ્ચિમના લોકો માનતા નથી. એવું માનતા નથી તેનું પરિણામ આપણે પશ્ચિમના બધા મુલકોમાં જોઈએ છીએ.
The Mahomedans started the Khilafat movement in 1919. The objective of the movement was two-fold: to preserve the Khilafat and to maintain the integrity of the Turkish Empire. Both these objectives were unsupportable. The Khilafat could not be saved simply because the Turks, in whose interest this agitation was carried on, did not want the Sultan.
He had barely covered six or seven steps when a person whose name I learnt later as Narayan Vinayak Godse, resident of Poona, stepped closer and fired three shots from a pistol at the Mahatma from barely 2 / 3 feet distance which hit the Mahatma in his stomach and chest and blood started flowing. Mahatma ji fell backwards, uttering “Raam – Raam”. The assailant was apprehended on the spot with the weapon.
Germany amending Criminal Code to fix liability for operating online trading platforms - The Internet has made the exchange of goods and services easier in many ways. Trading platforms are accessible around the clock from almost anywhere in the world. They offer convenient and attractive options for customers, dealers and operators. However, there are not only platforms with legitimate offers, but also platforms on which prohibited items and services are traded. Such criminal platforms in the form of forums or marketplaces play an increasingly central role in certain areas of crime.
Indian PM Modi’s opening remarks at 12th BRICS Summit-17/11/2020 - Both credibility and effectiveness of global governance institutions are being questioned. The main reason for this is that these did not change with time. These are still rooted in the thinking and reality of a world which was seen 75 years ago. India believes that reforms are a must in the UN Security Council. We expect support from our BRICS partners in this matter. Apart from the UN, many other international institutions are also not functioning according to current realities. Institutions like WTO, IMF, WHO must also reform.

Wagaru Dhammath of Burma-King Wareru of Pegu Dynasty-1300 CE - When this universe had reached the period of firmly established continuancy, the original inhabitants of this world conjointly entreated the great king Mahasammata to become their ruler; the pouring of water (abhisekam) which inaugurated his reign took place beneath the Udumbara tree. King Mahasammata governed the world with righteousness. Now the king had a wise nobleman called Manu, who was well versed in the law. This nobleman Manu, desiring the good of all men, and being also opportuned by King Mahasammata, rose into the expanse of heaven, and having arrived at the boundary wall of the world, he there saw (this lawbook written in) letters of the size of a full-grown cow ; he committed them to memory and, having returned, communicated the same to King Mahasammata
A Promised Land by Barack Obama - I wanted to offer readers a sense of what it’s like to be the president of the United States; I wanted to pull the curtain back a bit and remind people that, for all its power and pomp, the presidency is still just a job and our federal government is a human enterprise like any other, and the men and women who work in the White House experience the same daily mix of satisfaction, disappointment, office friction, screw-ups, and small triumphs as the rest of their fellow citizens.
