We need to do hard work to lead our life nicely… no matter its physically or mentally… but we need to do… one person may be illiterate or semi literate who does not ability to do so GOOD work unless he is not doing any bad to other that should be treated as good job. Its not really matter what s/he is doing if s/he is fair to the family or in the vast word to the society then that should be treated as GOOD job. I salute those people.

While I captured this photo it was just a photo I didnt realize the meaning of this photo!!! Really its true… then my intention was just to capture a nice photo… This photo was captured in the Eve of Christmas (2008)… may be showing respect for their lives is different or varies religion to religion but we do…
Now I’m feeling something different… Yesterday one of my best friends mother died… it was really early… SHE was sick (cancer) but not so sick to die… few days back also SHE was OK… but GOD knows what happened or what HE LIKE!!! I was really very close to their family but at the last moment I really could not do nothing to them… My that friend is living in US… Few months ago he came to visit here. Did he knows that its his last meeting… When I heard the news early in the morning then I was sleeping with my mother & I heard that one of my best friends mother DIED… I had nothing to do without sacrificing my tears on my mother’s leap as already they were on the way to Chittagong… If my condition is such then what about my that friend who is far far miles away from the country… Today I just remembered those days… what we passed in that family how SHE behaved with me… with us… we were just like HER another son, SHE sometime scolded us, sometime loved us… but now… SHE is far far away from us… SHE went in such place from where on one will return… We know everyone will go… but its too too much early…
Anyway may HER soul Live in PEACE & Please GOD give strength to benumbed family to overcome the MOURN…!!!…

Touching Story…

all over the people express LOVE in same way. Love can make people to sacrifice his/her precious thing for beloved person.

Pohela Baishakh 1416

Bengali New Year (Bengali: নববর্ষ Nôbobôrsho) or Pohela Boishakh (পহেলা বৈশাখ Pôhela Boishakh or পয়লা বৈশাখ Pôela Boishakh or Poila Boishakh) is the first day of the Bengali calendar, celebrated in both Bangladesh and West Bengal, and in Bengali communities in Assam and Tripura. Pohela Boishakh connects all ethnic Bengalis irrespective of religious and regional differences. It falls on April 14 or April 15 of the Gregorian calendar depending on the use of the new amended or the old Bengali calendar respectively. In Bangladesh, it is celebrated on April 14 according to the official amended calendar designed by the Bangla Academy. In Bangladesh, Pohela Boishakh is a national holiday and in West Bengal and Assam it is a public (state) holiday and is publicly celebrated on April 15 every year.

To celebrate this day I went to Dhaka University area early in the morning… It was easy for me to go there as I had night shift in the office. Thats why after finishing the office I went to Dhaka University area but I missed the Ramna Batamul’s program to capture any ways the day was really awesome.

Here are some captured photos…

Mongol Shovajata by Charukola:

When the rally was going there was the special attractive thing was all the photographer & journalists were busy with taking the pictures… see what happened the Raju Vashkaja here

After that I also took some other pics also

In the Pohela Baishakh the most attractive group was this group as they are very much exceptional in their dress up.

Here I also noticed the attendance of the children was very much high. All the family members were participating in this cultural eve.
Here are some evidence of that…
All are coming to attend the programme of Sayanot in the early morning thats why they might not sleep well at the night

Our PRIDE…

Our PRIDE…, originally uploaded by p!cklu.

This is our pride… Its nice to achieve victory after long 9 months war. We got our victory in 1971. But in reality do we get the victory??? In my opinion I think its not yet done… in geographically we are a free nation & there is an existence in the world map. But in the economically are we free??? But its Pride to have such country… By the time we will achieve all the things I HOPE & I think that HOPE gives all of us the inspiration of work…

Cox’s Bazaar my 1st tour…

In mind there was always a dream to go for Cox’s Bazaar. But I couldn’t make time & scope to go there earlier. In this Eid vacation I made time to go there… The main thing is to manage my mother as I’m the youngest son & manage the office. My other 3 friends were also going there so it was nice opportunity to go there with them. I manage the opportunity.

Actually my Eid vacation started after the Eid, means I did duty in my office in the Eid day & after Eid day also. As its a multinational company & im in network section I have to stay in the office in the day time. I managed a ticket to Cox’s Bazaar of “Silk Line” AC bus. My bus was at 11:00pm (10.12.08) from Arambag. I did my office then came to Narayanganj & got ready for the tour. My other friends already went to Cox’s Bazaar. Im going single… By the mean time one of my friends named Tushar called me that he is also going to Cox’s Bazaar. He came to know my trip information from Rumee 1 of my childhood friend. I reached in the bus station early & waiting for the bus. I was very much excited as its my 1st time I’m going alone in far distance.

My Ride

My bus started at 11:11pm it was really a nice experience. At 1:00am (11.12.08) it went to Tajmahal hotel. It was a nice place. Here I captured some pictures.

Enjoying

At 5:42am I reached in the Cox’s Bazaar. It was in front of Albatross Resort. Here I understand what is called FOB means First On Boat. As I was new comer here I did not know the way to beach. I asked person whats the way to the beach. Then I went in the Labony point beach alone. It was really nice view & experience to see the SEA… I also saw the sun rise from here but its not special. Only one thing is when sun rises the color of the water is changing.

Sun rise in the Beach

I met with my friend Tushar then went to Hotel Lauge where all my friends were staying. After becoming fresh we went to beach for taking bath. This is the first time im taking bath & water was too salty… uak thoo. But we enjoyed the sea waves. It was really nice.

After taking bath we returned hotel it was only walk distance. Then we take shower in the hotel washroom then lunch in the hotel dining with sea fish… it was breakfast & lunch together. Then we go out for Moheshkhali. We hired a CNG scooter & went to no 6 ghat for taking speed boat.

6 # ghat

The fare is 80 taka per head in the speed boat. Which 14 minutes journey to reach Moheshkhali. But the natural scenery is nice. Here I captured some pictures of birds life style beside sea.

Then when we reached in the Moheshkhali we saw how shutki was making. Here we also saw big Baine fish also. Thats size was unbelieveable.

In the ghat here we saw a strange thing that is we had to give money in 3 places, 1 in the main ghat, 1 in the boat way (which is something like bridge) & at last boat man.

Then we took some refreshment. After that we went to Burmese market for shopping. I bought special Burmese pickle, nuts & chandan face pack for my sisters.

After that we went to sea shore that day was the full moon. We took our dinner at Diamond Palace restaurant. The foods are really delicious & price are reasonable. We returned hotel & took some refreshment then went to Sea Shore as it was the FULL MOON. We stayed here for a long time. It was another experience feeling enjoying full moon in the sea side. We set in the top of Sweety’s finger. Then my feeling was missing someone special but don’t know whom as there is no one special in my life. It was really luck to enjoy full moon in the sea side. Late at night we returned home & the next days plan in going to Enani beach & Himsori.

We booked a CNG scooter yesterday & that was our ride for going there. We went 4 persons there as Tusher was too tired to go outside. In Enani beach we saw crap (kakra) & the hole of their house. After that we went to Himsori & took the breakfast here. We ride in the hill for watching the sea from the upper area. It was nice view just awesome. Here there is fountain but it is too little. Here I used tripod to capture some pictures. We returned hotel by 12:00pm. The way to go there is pleasant one.

After returning from here we went to beach. At that time we were only two person as other there were going to take lunch as they will return home by night. While we were taking bath then I feel very lonely as all other were with there family. Then my feeling was just… I decided to come home. After finishing bath we returned hotel & took shower then I talked with my mother from my friends mobile as I gave my mobile & all other things to Shovan. We went to Diamond palace restaurant. On the way to go there I went to Mercedes-Benz counter to buy a ticket to Dhaka. I got nice seat which is C3 & C4. It was amazing to got these seat in these rush time. It was actually some one canceled their ticket. I confirmed the ticket of C4 over phone. We came to beach after finishing the lunch. We hired two deck chairs to enjoy the sun set & the beach.

After the sun set Tushar & me went to Burmese market again to do shopping. I bought some pickle, one chain made of pearl, one bed cover & lot of dried fish specially sea fish. After doing shopping we took sweet & parota from Pal’s sweat, those are really nice. Then we returned to hotel & just pick the bag & went to bus counter.

I reached the bus counter in time but bus was not in time. It was almost 30 minutes late wheres it was suppose to come by 9:00pm.

My ride

In the bus there was another surprise for me. When I went to bus I saw there was someone else in my seat. I complained about it & after that I got my seat. The bus service was really bad. It was just like local bus in high configuration & the seat was not good at all not comfortable. There was another surprise waiting for me. I was supposed to left in “Sign Board” which is the easy & short way to go Narayanganj. But the supervisor forgot to inform me & thats why I had to go to Dhaka then came back to Narayanganj. With out the bus journey by Mercedes-Benz overall the trip was very short but really nice…

Its my first post in the flickr site… I am trying to learn photography… & its one of them. I shot it on the way to Rahimabad near Narshingdi. The way is too much nice & pleasant for photo shooting I think. On the way one could get river, natural environment & the test of village life or rural life…

Gayatri Mantra

AUM BHOOR BHUWAH SWAHA,
TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM
BHARGO DEVASAYA DHEEMAHI
DHIYO YO NAHA PRACHODAYAT.

Summary of the Gayatri Mantra

Gayatri Mantra (the mother of the vedas), the foremost mantra in hinduism and hindu beliefs, inspires wisdom. Its meaning is that “May the Almighty God illuminate our intellect to lead us along the righteous path”. The mantra is also a prayer to the “giver of light and life” – the sun (savitur).

Oh God! Thou art the Giver of Life,
Remover of pain and sorrow,
The Bestower of happiness,
Oh! Creator of the Universe,
May we receive thy supreme sin-destroying light,
May Thou guide our intellect in the right direction.

Word for Word Meaning of the Gayatri Mantra

Aum = Brahma ;
bhoor = embodiment of vital spiritual energy(pran) ;
bhuwah = destroyer of sufferings ;
swaha = embodiment of happiness ;
tat = that ;
savitur = bright like sun ;
varenyam = best choicest ;
bhargo = destroyer of sins ;
devasya = divine ;
these first nine words describe the glory of God
dheemahi = may imbibe ; pertains to meditation
dhiyo = intellect ;
yo = who ;
naha = our ;
prachodayat = may inspire!
“dhiyo yo na prachodayat” is a prayer to God

Hence the Gayatri is unique in that it embodies the three concepts of stotra (singing the praise and glory of God), dhyaana (meditation) and praarthana (prayer).
