MUNNAR

Whenever I hear or remember about MUNNAR, Kerala, India the thought which is coming to my mind is “HONEY MOON HUTS”. Immediately my memories would go to those days when we were there in the Huts to celebrate our Honey Moon. Oh God, it will not vanish from my brain. It was in December few years back. The Hut was already booked. We reached there in the afternoon. The Hut was well furnished like a Star Hotel. 7x5 wide Bed with feather bed covered with smooth sheets and two Pillows. Why this two pillows? I thought. One only was need or even not. We are here for not to sleep. We both told simultaneously she embraced me and fell in the bed.

A couple who would like to enjoy their Honey Moon they must stay in the Huts, at least for three days, of MUNNAR, Kerala especially a foreign couple. Till the end of their life they cannot forget those enjoyment they experienced in the Honey Moon Hut at MUNNAR, Kerala.

Of course, once you must visit and stayed there. Then you will feel the experience of enjoyment. So do not wait, Go to Munnar and enjoy your Honeymoon. From Cochin by road it is only 140 KMs. Government Transport Services is making frequent trips to Munnar everyday.

Keep A Dust Free Mind

Keeping the Mind Dust free

SOME STUDENTS suffer from lack of enthusiasm and are unwilling to work hard. Some parents mistake their child's "abundant interest in his goal to become something great" as "willingness and enthusiasm to work hard." Both are entirely different, says psychologist Radhakrishna Menon

People who say "our child is very much interested in studies but lacks concentration" or "we are sure he is intelligent and if he studies, he gets good marks" should know this basic fact. What the children need to acquire is that enthusiasm to "work smart." To "work smart, " a clean mind is needed. A person spends five minutes to brush his teeth and ten to bath. He hardly spends a second to dust his brain.

"Mind Cleaning" makes a student very bright, prosperous, energetic and, above all, enthusiastic towards life. It's a 12-minute daily exercise, three minutes at night and nine in the morning. It gives a positive approach to life, increases retention power of mind (by developing permanent neuron bonds), capacity to adhere to the time schedule and avoid procrastination.

This 12-C technique may appear non-practicable to begin with for some, who are lazy even to fight their laziness. But you will witness how simple this is. Those who followed it meticulously for a month or two later conveyed that they had benefited. Once you start your studies at night, do not talk to anybody, even during the dinner break. Avoid bedside stories after the study hour, pleasing conversations with family members during study intervals and watching short break visuals on the small screen. They make your night study an unavoidable "part time ritual". You develop a psychological feeling to finish it off at the earliest and revert back to your interesting conversations/ visuals. You may hold the book in your hand but you inwardly treat the study hour as a responsibility thrust upon you by yourself. To avoid this state of mind, you should make sure that there is no "further interesting thing" in the night. Pray for a minute and then start studying. It's like a karate player entering into his highly solitude isolation.

Calmness

After completing your studies, go to bed and close your eyes. Close your ears with a pillow for one minute. By closing two important sensory organs, you are engulfed by quietness and the mind becomes calm. It appears difficult and unattainable in the beginning but within 10 days you will know the difference. Just observe your breath for a minute. Only one minute. That's it. It's like cleaning the slate before writing.
Collect

Next, start recollecting the subjects you studied before going to bed. You have one minute to recollect. Let us suppose that you studied the Ramayana and the Archimedes Principle. Condense them to "Ram... wife... forest... kidnap... fight and rescue" and "Article immersed in a liquid... loss of weight... equal to... displaced liquid weight". This is called keynoting. Now, neurons in your brain are supplemented with these ingredients.

Continue

Now, settle in your habituated comfortable position and try to sleep. Expand the key points in a story form. This is called "recall." While thinking, slowly slip into sleep. Sleep has three phases: drowsy stage (DS), slow wave sleep (SWS) and rapid eye movement sleep (REM).

As you keep thinking of your subjects and slip into the drowsy stage, the ingredients given to your neurotransmitters gradually become "Neuron Bonds." The electromagnetic waves in the brain, which rage like a hurricane during the daytime, comparatively calm down during your sleep. Hence these bonds become permanent neuron bonds (PNBs). Your will never forget your subject in your lifetime, if you recall them once a week. Practice the above three for a week.
