What is so special about New Year Day?

On New Year day, a lady journalist mentioned on Hindi service of German Radio

Station that She along with many other people celebrated New Year by cracking

fireworks, having parties all night, and doing many other activities all night.

I wonder what is so special about New Year Day. It is just another day in

the cycle of nature without any kind of importance. Practically every day of

the year is New Year Day for one or the religion or for one community or the

other community. People who enjoy new beginnings - or are just looking for a

New Year’s Redo – should know that there are roughly more than 100 major

calendars in use today around the world. The next few weeks, reports The San

Diego Union Tribune, will see these new years: Russians Orthodox (Jan. 14),

Chinese (Feb. 9), and Islam (Feb. 10)

But some calendars haven’t caught on:

 

Christian calendar is the most defective calendar in the world. Even many

western people keep making attempts to change or modify the present Christian

Calendar. Present Christian calendar is so defective that no country in the

world would have accepted it, which is based on Christian era. But due to the

colonies, western world imposed their system of governance, their cultural

ethos, their language, their festivals, and their traditions on the enslaved

countries. Some of the independent countries are still in the mentally slave

condition. Bharat though an independent country, but it is still a mentally

slave country.

Calendars which haven’t caught on:

- In 1793, the revolutionary French inaugurated a “calendar of reason” that

consisted of 12 months, each with three 10 – day weeks (or “decades”), plus

five or six days at the end of the year to make a full solar year. The changes

were abandoned after 12 years, in the face of strong opposition and ridicule.

While it lasted, officials prosecuted some people who ignored the new calendar.

In 1805, When Napoleon received a letter dated Aug. 12, he warned the

correspondent: “While a law exists, it must be obeyed.” Days later, he himself

abolished the “Calendar of reason,” sacrificing it to his grander ambitions

that would require good relations with the Pope.

- In 1954, the International World Calendar Association

persuaded the United Nations to consider its

12.0pt">proposal. The so-called World Calendar, endorsed by accountants and

business people, had 13 months (or “Sols”.) The United States spurned the idea

because the 4th July would have become the 17th of Sol. The International World

Calendar Association now advocates a 12 – month permanent calendar.

- The international Association for 2006 wants the world to adopt on Jan. 1,

2006 a new perpetual calendar that would have eight months of 31 days each,

four months of 30 days each and a “Newton week” in 2009, 2015, 2020, 2026 and

so on.

- A website devoted to Calendar reform lists several dozen proposed

calendars, including: Bonavian, Pragmatic Civil, Esperanto, Alphabetic, Raendo

(it uses base – 12 numbering). Ecliptic, Long Sabbath Perennial, Poitivist

(“today is Moses 7 in the year 217”) and Liberalic Triday

- The tranquility calendar begins counting the years from the 1969 Moon

Landing and includes “Aldrin Day” on leap year.

We Hindus have NEW YEAR on Chaitra Krishna Pratipadà.As we have Màtà and Pità,

we can have 2 perhaps on Kàrtika Shukla Pratipadà (which needs correction,

after GOOD research); but like Prostitute (for bussiness, ball dances and

drinking parties) why should we have to celebrate Christian new year also,

specially when we claim to be VAIDIKA BANDHU (because we have been slaves for

1000+ years - In other nations and other religions do not share the same view

for our NUTANA VARSHA)? No body has told media people how

to celebrate New Year day properly. The way the media people broadcast program

on New Year Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, it shows the bankruptcy of the

knowledge of the media people.

Once Radio German Hindi service the newsreader of Urdu service was interviewed

and its Hindi service and converted into Urdu service. That was the act of

stupid ness on the part of the management of Radio German and other media

people. Normally interview is conducted with newsmakers and not with

newsreaders. If at all interview was conducted, then what was the point in

converting Hindi service into Urdu service? Once a lady journalist on VOA Hindi

service was interviewing a Muslim, who was a song writer for Hindi films, the

lady journalist converted VOA Hindi Service into 100% Urdu service If the

Muslim writer, writes songs for Hindi films, then would he not understand the

Hindi spoken by lady journalist of

VOA.

Are you media people not mentally slave people and spreading mental slavery? If

VOA Hindi Service, BBC Hindi Service, Radio German Hindi Service are

interviewing a Muslim or Urdu knowing person, then usually Hindi service is

converted into Urdu service. What is the purpose of converting Hindi service

into Urdu service? If you media people are interviewing someone who does not

understand Hindi, then instead of converting the Hindi service program into the

language of interviewed person, use interpretators or translators. Some

journalist have so poor general knowledge that they cannot take right decision.

Hindi media people are just sinecure people with no responsibility

to the Hindi language or the quality of the program. From quality point of

view, Radio German Hindi service is of extremely poor quality. Management makes

no effort to improve the quality of Hindi program. As all the bosses of VO A

Hindi service, BBC Hindi service, radio German Hindi service do not speak pure

Hindi themselves, therefore all the journalists and correspondents have no fear

of loosing their jobs irrespective how much garbage they put in Hindi or how

much Bakwaas they do. They know they would not be punished or lose

their jobs by using garbage type of Hindi language.

Now coming back to the question of celebration of Christian New year. The proper

way would have been to say prayers for the welfare of people affected in Tsunami

disaster in temples, mosques, Churches, in offices. Prayers have lot of affect.

Some mysteries of the nature, which have come to be known, or some new

scientific discoveries have been made, the media should have discussed those

mysteries of nature on New Year Day. Different communities or different

countries use different calendars. Media people should have discussed those

different calendars. Also media people should have discussed the flaws and good

points of Christian calendar. It should have also have been discussed the

importance and significance of 1st

January.

The Christian calendar is one of the most unsatisfactory calendars in the world.

Many people have made attempts to improve this calendar. Those points made for

the improvements of Christian Calendar should have been discussed. The other

point for celebrating New Year is that instead of wasting money on Fireworks

and on lavish parties, money should have been donated to Tsunami disaster

affected people or to donate money to such Charitable organizations who would

forward more than 90 % money to the intended cause.

Merry Christmas to all Hindus, Enjoy!

Ignorance is weakness and weakness is sin. Hindus have

suffered a lot I have read the genocide of Hindus by Christians in Goa

Soon after the liberation of Goa [Dec.1961] in which a freedom fighter was

killed [this family was known to us] during demonstration and agitation and

after that Goa was liberated. I remember it well ON 19.12. 1961 the Russian

leader had arrived for a visit to India. Pt. Nehru had given ambiguous hint

that something may have to be done to free Goa. I think people are ignorant

about Portuguese rule, torture the worst

Torture one can imagine not only in India but also all over their occupation and

recent history of Angola is before us that before leaving Angola they

destroyed the country in every sense of the word and Angolans will never

recover from that. I hope these facts are translated in various Indian

languages for awareness.

The Islamic genocide of Hindus is also a very painful story. They are still

doing the mini genocides only the names have changed.

On the name of Christ and Islam they have so much blood on their

hands that they cannot clean the stains by water of all the seas of the world.

The worst has yet to follow between Christians and Muslims, the war which

started on 9/11 will go on for a thousand years if we take the

Quotations of k-------------.

May God give us wisdom to live in peace?

jaya hind.

Hindus are a pathetic lot! Nothing can move them! I just cannot believe the

height of selfishness in them! India is right now under

Christian rule, Tamilnaadu is also under Christian rule, Telugu Desam is under

Christian rule, and complete NE India is under Christian rule.

So I wish the Hindus 'Merry Christmas'!

I simply love your posts and I hope you write more often in all Hindu groups to

enlighten them.

You know my beloved husband says to me? He called me to watch the Indian News

'aniin' stuff in the evening. He asked me stop my

Cooking and come and watch the news! It was a surprise to me. He says, 'Look,

you are wasting my hard earned money for the Internet

($20-$30) each month on your Hindu tattva, Hindu tattva'. Look what the Hindus

in India are doing. They are celebrating Christmas, they are celebrating

Valentine's Day, and they are going to bars and drinking. India has become

worse than any western country!

We should regularly post on mythological Jesus. It would be nice to email to

each and every convent and parish the post on Goan

Inquisition on Christmas!

Stop Using word Shurkhiya in any Form

 

BBC Hindi service prints the word Shurkhiya on their web site and also uses this

word many times in audio news bulletins. In Hindi, Shurkhiya does not carry the

meaning, which you media people want to convey. Please use the word “Samacharo

Ka Shershak”.

In Hindi, words like Akhwaar Dastaan, Faisala, Hadsa, Hafta, Haasil, Izaafa,

Izzat, Jaroori, Kamyaaab, Karobaar, Katam, Khabre, Koshis, Kudrat, Khusi,

Khaas, Madad, Maksad, Mahsus, Manjar, Matahat, Mudde, Masla, Mahoul, Moka,

Mutaabik, Nawajan, Nuksaan, Takreevan,Takreer, Tareeka, Talab, Tamanna,

Tareeka, Tasveere,

Zaria, Zalzala, Wajah, Waqt, etc. should never be uttered or used.

This is a great shame and scandal that on the name of Hindi these

journalists use lots of Urdu and English words. Such programmes in Hindi on

Radio and TV channels not only harm Hindi but in long run such programs in

polluted Hindi are going to harm the journalists own jobs and existence but it

will be too late then. Further to this, most of these journalists cannot speak

in one language while on air. They have to use Urdu and English words to

complete their sentences. Therefore these journalists are not fit to be in the

jobs they are in. According to norms they are good for nothing. If you are in

English Channel you cannot mix the words as they do in Hindi Channels.

This shows the slave and servant mentality of Hindi journalists and they have no

self respect and pride in them selves or the language they speak. Language

spoken by Hindi journalists is A MIXTURE of languages. It is the weakness in

the Hindi journalists character / qualification and poor standard of their

qualifications and standard of universities from where journalists get their

education.I suggest that these Hindi journalists must go for regular tests and

trainings to improve their Hindi and there must be a monitoring system to see

how much non Hindi words they are using and their progress must depend on that

if they do not improve then their jobs must be terminated. Better still they

must get some knowledge of Sanskrit as Sanskrit is not yet polluted by Urdu and

English words.

You media people use so many Urdu and English words in Hindi, while proper Hindi

words are available, I wonder does your conscious does not bother you people

that you people earn money on the name of Hindi but promote Urdu and English

languages. Shame on you Hindi journalists. All of you Hindi journalists should

drown them selves in Chuulubhar paani.
