Beauties of Nature

“Nature is beautiful, always beautiful.” Says a great poet. Every little flake of snow is a perfect crystal, and they fall together as gracefully as if fairies of the air caught water-drops and made them into artificial flowers to garland the wings of the wind.

The lofty mountains lifting their snowy heads above the clouds, the vast sea stretching up to the horizon, the green meadows full of flowers in spring, the deep gloom and wild charm to a forest glade—all these cast a spell on the human heart, so do the thunder clouds gathering in the sky, the rainbow with its fairy colours and silvery moon with its beaming cluster of stars. The glory of the morning sun and the crimson glow of the evening sky ever delight the heart of man.

These beauties of nature are a perennial feast for the eye and ear of man. They add their colour and grace to the otherwise drab life of man. They bring freshness and purity no man’s care-worn existence.

There is something divine in the unruffled clam of nature that overawes our little anxieties and doubts. The beauties of nature have been an unfailing source of inspiration to the artist, to the scientist and also to the philosopher. The artist tries to imitate nature, the poet tries to sing of the clam and solace found in nature, the scientist tries to read the mysteries of nature and the philosopher tries to find something divine in nature.

The beauties of nature in their purity and perfection win the heart of millions. That is why the great poet Goethe said, “Nature is the living, visible garment of God.”

Progress vs. Stability

There is perhaps a certain conflict always between the idea of progress and that of security and stability. The two do not fit in; the former wants change, the latter a safe unchanging haven and continuation of things as they are. The idea of progress is modern and relatively new even in the west; the ancient and medieval civilization thought far more in terms of a golden past and of subsequent decay. In India also the past has always been glorified. The civilization that was built up here was essentially based on stability and security and from this point of view; it was far more successful than any that arose in the west. The social structure based on the caste system and joint families, served this purpose and was successful in providing social security for the group and a kind of insurance for the individual who by reason of age, infirmity, or any other incapacity, was unable to provide for himself. Such an arrangement, while favouring the weak, hinders, to some ex...

Advertisement Role In Today

Advertisements play a very important role in the promotion of one’s business. But a business advertisement should be drafted, designed and laid out in an artistic manner that will tempt the reader to go through it even if he has no desire to buy the advertised product. In fact, it is not possible to think of the modern world without advertisement. When we speak of advertisements we generally refer to business and commerce. They have become the kingpin of the world of trade In the past, there was not much need to advertise goods. Makers were limited. The traders or manufactures had only local customers. At best they took the services of town-criers or they use handbills or posters. But, now advertising itself has become a specialized form of business. Many advertising agencies have come up. There agencies help businessmen to promote their sales.Small t...

Some Problems of Present-Day Youth

The present-day youth is facing a large number of problems-economic, social, moral as well as political. But the root cause of all these problems is the lack of purpose in his life. The modern youth is like a rudderless boat. He keeps drifting here and there with no knowledge of his destination. All his problems grow form his purposelessness. Our universities are producing millions of graduates and post-graduates every year. These young men and women look for jobs after completing their studies. But when they are unable to find any good job, they become restless. They feel that all their time and money spent on education has gone waste. They lose all hope of having a good life and grow desperate. Such a state leads them astray. It is nothing strange that these young men and women take to destructive activities. They fall into the hands of anti-social elements who use them as tools to achieve their own selfish ends. ...
