I M P O R T A N T !!
According to the Shastras, the day on which you get a haircut is believed to have an effect on Ayushya (longevity). It is said that:
- Monday (Somavara): Increases longevity by 7 months.
- Wednesday (Budhavara): Increases longevity by 5 months.
- Thursday (Guruvara): Increases longevity by 10 months.
- Friday (Shukravara): Increases longevity by 11 months.
However, the Tithi (lunar day) is considered even more important than the weekday. One should avoid getting a haircut on Amavasya (New Moon), even if it falls on an otherwise auspicious weekday like Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. Always check the Tithi first, and then consider the weekday before making a decision.
Among the Tithis, the following are regarded as especially auspicious for a haircut:
- Dwitiya (2nd Tithi)
- Tritiya (3rd Tithi)
- Panchami (5th Tithi)
- Saptami (7th Tithi)
- Trayodashi (13th Tithi)
According to these traditional beliefs, choosing an auspicious Tithi along with a favorable weekday is said to contribute to Ayushya Vriddhi—an increase in longevity and overall well-being.

_No need for a good conduct certificate from religious heads to get married...
No need for recommendation letters...

_Since there’s no ban on drinking alcohol, no need to go crazy using ganja or drugs.

_No separate laws for women...
No special prohibitions for women...
_If a woman dances, no crowd will gather to abuse her... They’ll clap and encourage her...

_No need to cover the face or head. Can wear clothes of choice...
_No separate dining area for her... No bans in crowds... no rules... no prohibitions...
_You can pray to the God of any religion. Can hang a star, set up a crib, celebrate any festival,
_Even if you don’t get them in return, you can send Christmas, Easter, Eid, Nabi Day wishes to friends. No one will question you;
_And you don’t have to fear anyone to share this!
Pleasant, beautiful, peaceful, free... Life as you like!!
_If asked “Do you have a religion?” — Yes... If asked “Don’t you have a religion?” — No.
Missed one thing...
No need to fight for a spot in the cemetery for the funeral... Just need some firewood.
Tomorrow is Gauri Trittiya. Please guide your children to offer prayers and look at this “Gor Tray” first thing in the morning tomorrow and invoke Goddess Sharda or Saraswati for wisdom, intellect and excellence. @AMEAK_Displaced @1989KMRrefugees @searchkashmir@AdvaitaKala
@TimesAlgebraIND Saw many people (including RW) talking about how BJP gvt didn't provide proper compensation to locals in Ayodhya Dham, their homes/lands were snatched forcefully etc etc..
Here locals themselves burst the propaganda...
गर्व से कहो…
@ArjunSKadian and I felt the goosebumps yet again while recording for @Pamphlet_in. Do you? If yes, garv se kaho…
Ever grateful to @DidiRitambhara for inspiring a series of generations…
He is one of the most sane muslim voices in the country. I was a kid when I saw him agitating for Shah Bano once. Absolutely crystal clear on India's cultural values.

19. It’s not rude to turn down food. Ever.
20. There is no single “best” diet for everyone

22. Permanent fat loss comes from eating and moving well, not starving yourself
23. Telling yourself that a food is “off limits” will backfire if you like that food
24. You can eat dessert every day and lose fat if you stay in a calorie deficit
25. “Boosting your metabolism” is done by walking more, adding muscle, and eating more protein
26. Going to the gym does not mean you “earned” the right to eat like a 12-year-old boy
27. Most nutrition gurus are people who solved a health issue and are extremely biased toward the solution that worked for them

29. Nutrition info on food labels is allowed to be off up to 20%. This is significant
30. Watermelon is the second-best fat loss hack (behind muscle)

38. If someone says you can’t gain fat eating buttered rib-eye steaks, ignore everything this person says about nutrition

40. Extreme calorie deficits lead to binging. Avoid
41. Sleeping less than 6 hours per night will make you crave sugar

45. Googling “healthy user bias” will clear up a lot of the confusing things you hear about nutrition
46. Nuts are literally the worst snack for fat loss
47. Fiber is about more than pooping - it’s good for your gut and leads to better healthspan

एक हाथी था वह मर गया तो धर्मराज के यहाँ पहुँचा। धर्मराज ने उससे पूछा तुझे इतना बड़ा शरीर दिया, फिर भी तू मनुष्य के वश में हो गया। तेरे एक पैर जितना था मनुष्य, उसके वश में तू हो गया। वह हाथी बोला-महाराज। यह मनुष्य ऐसा ही है। बड़े-बड़े इसके वश में हो जाते हैं।
