                                         "CHRISTMAS" ORIGIN: No one knows the real birthday of Jesus! No date is given in the Bible, so why do we celebrate it on the 25th December? The early Christians certainly had many arguments as to when it should be celebrated! Also, the birth of Jesus probably didn't happen in the year 1 but slightly earlier, somewhere between 2 BCE/BC and 7 BCE/BC, possibly in 4 BCE/BC (there isn't a 0 - the years go from 1 BC/BCE to 1!).

DO's and DON'Ts for maintaining Good VOCAL HEALTH: Maintaining good vocal health and hygiene is a goal we should all aspire to—even if we don’t sing or speak for a living. The vocal folds (“vocal cords”) are a muscular body with a mucosal cover.  When we force air through these structures, they vibrate, producing sound. The vocal folds are located inside the larynx, an organ inside the trachea (“windpipe”). DO's: 1.Do Stay hydrated:  Keeping the vocal folds covered with the right amount of mucosal lubrication is key to vocal health. Drinking 6–8 glasses of water daily helps keep this lubrication present but thin, which is ideal. Herbal tea is good, as are fruits high in water content. But caffeinated beverages are less optimal sources of fluid because they can be mildly dehydrating. 2.Do warm up your voice before extensive use: If you are going to sing, give a presentation, or even talk on the phone for an extended period, it’s a good idea to warm up the voice by humming, t...

Why Do We Apply Kumkum : There are certain substances which gather energy much more quickly than others. Let’s say a steel rod, some vibhuti and a person are next to me right now. How much energy they gather from me is very different. All of them have the same opportunity, but all of them do not absorb and retain energy to the same extent. Certain substances have been identified as substances that can easily gather and retain energy. NOTE:  I n many temples, very powerful pranic vibrations are still there, so this substance is kept there for a while so it gathers a certain amount of energy in it. The idea is to share it, so it is given to people who come there. If you are sensitive, just by being there you gather this energy yourself. If you are not so sensitive, something must be given to you. Why Do Women Wear Kumkum? The important thing is that it is turmeric. Applying it has certain health and other benefits. Another thing is it is used as a symbolism in the society. If a woman...

                                                      FACTS OF WORLD FAMOUS "CRICKET" Cricket and its history: ORIGIN: There is a consensus of expert opinion that cricket may have been invented during Saxon or Norman times by children living in the Weald, an area of dense woodlands and clearings in south-east England. The first reference to cricket being played as an adult sport was in 1611, and in the same year, a dictionary defined cricket as a boys' game. There is also the thought that cricket may have derived from bowls, by the intervention of a batsman trying to stop the ball from reaching its target by hitting it away. Village cricket had developed by the middle of the 17th century and the first English “county teams” were formed in the second half of the century, as “local experts” from village cricket were employed as the earliest ...
