How many of us know the real meaning of service and charity? A human being of today, is a selfish being who is more interested in himself than others.We forget that most of our problems arise because of this nature of ours.The day we start thinking about others before ourselves,we would all be free of most of our problems.

Now a days, the subject of yog and tantra have been totally misrepresented. I was watching a programme on a ‘spiritual’ channel and there I saw a very elderly woman sharing her thoughts on ‘spirituality’. So I thought let me listen into what she has to say. After her discourse she made the viewers do dhyan and sat herself in dhyan as well. When it was over, she came out with some sort of jerk in her body. Anybody who knows the st...
