Born 1968, shaped by steel and stride | Infantry soul, where grit and honor abide | Marched through fire, stood with pride | A soldier once, a warrior for life.

@seriousfunnyguy This is Paidalajin, paida means slapping and lajin means stretching. The technique is a combination of principles of acupressure and acupuncture. Great if done daily.
I must confess that until recently I had never heard of Phool Dei, a spring festival that was celebrated yesterday in the villages of Uttarakhand.
Children gather fresh flowers from the hills and go from house to house placing them on doorsteps, offering a blessing for the household:
“Phool Dei, Chhamma Dei,
Deni Dwar, Bhar Bhakar…” roughly wishing the home prosperity.
In return they receive sweets.
It reminded me a little of Halloween in the U.S., where children go door to door saying “trick or treat.” But what a lovely contrast. Here the children arrive not threatening a prank, or asking first, but giving first. Flowers.
In an age when we speak so much about environmental consciousness, this graceful celebration of spring and nature deserves to be far more widely known.
Just as Holi travelled across India and the world, perhaps Phool Dei should too.
For me, the children of Uttarakhand are my #MondayMotivation
🚨 Bust the Bluff
Pakistani propaganda accounts are circulating a digitally altered video of the Indian Army Design Bureau’s ADG Major General CS Mann, falsely claiming he said: “If Israel succeeds in taking down Iran, then Pakistan can be controlled from 3 sides. India from the East & Afghan Taliban and Pro Israel Iran from left. This is the Indian route to take back Akhand Bharat. The threat of Bangladesh and Nepal shall be dealt later.”
Delhi: The funeral rituals of late Shambhavi Pathak, co-pilot of the flight carrying Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, were held at Lodhi Road Crematorium. Family members, Air Force officials, and local residents attended the last rites.
A landmark step for India’s defence self-reliance!
