Here's Charles. A month ago he was set to close his business. This week, he sold it for $180 million. That's why he's smiling...\n\nAfter six years trying to figure out how to make games on the iPhone, Charles Forman was about to give up, with his company, Omgpop, set to run out of money by this May. Things changes three days ago. He said in an interview with the New York Times on Monday \u201cI had $1,700 in my bank account yesterday, and now I have a whole lot more.\u201d\n\nSo what changed? After 35 attempts at making games that would be successful, the Omgpop team finally found a hit at the beginning of February. The game, called \u201cDraw Something\u201d is like Pictionary for the iPhone. Since it launched on Feb 6th, it has been downloaded 35 million times. It caught the attention of Zynga, the game company behind Farmville and other Facebook game hits. A month after the game launched, Zynga just bought Omgpop from Charles for $180 million.\n\nDo you have the perseverance to try to create a success after 35 failures? Is it worth the six years of trying and failing to reach the runaway success? This is another example of hyper-growth that comes from getting your surf board back out there again and again. \n\nThis story unfolded while I was on my recent Australia tour, where I was sharing similar stories of 'overnight' successes. This hit the headlines this week. Next week will be another story, and then another. Surf\u2019s up! Will it be your turn next?<\/p>"}]
Here\u2019s a tweet Travis Kalanick sent in January 2010. The reply from Ryan Graves happened 3 minutes later. That tweet was worth over a billion dollars.\n\nJanuary 2010 was the month Travis was doing a test run with 3 cars in New York for a mobile app that he and his friend, Garrett Camp, had just created. \n\nThey had decided it was time to start a company around the app and, needing to find a General Manager to run it, Travis took to Craigslist and Twitter looking for the right person.\n\nRyan\u2019s reply to Travis came as he was looking for something new. He had some experience at GE, and had worked for Foursquare for a while for free after the company turned him down for a job. He was ready for a new opportunity - and took a chance with this tweet. \n\nTravis replied back, they met, they hit it off, and Ryan joined Travis and Garrett on March 1st as their first hire. \n\nWith their new company started, the three of them then invited all their friends to demo the product and they officially launched in San Francisco just 3 months later on May 31st.\n\nThat was five years ago.\n\nThis week, the team that started with that tweet has built their company, Uber, into a company that is currently valued at over $60 billion (they just announced another funding round of $2 billion this week http:\/\/bit.ly\/ubers-next-2-billion). <\/p>
Today, Travis and Ryan are worth over $6 billion, and that tweet from Ryan (who today is Uber\u2019s Head of Global Operations) began a journey which has made him a billionaire today as well.\n\nHow are you using Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Youtube today? \n\nAs a wall of content? As a broadcasting tool?\n\nOr, like Travis and Ryan, as a way to find the resources, connections and opportunities you need when you need them?\n\nDepending on how you use it, social media can make you feel apart from everyone, or one step to anyone.\n\nIt can overwhelm you, or empower you.\n\nIt can be a time waster, or a time saver.\n\n\u201cNever confuse motion with action.\u201d \n~ Benjamin Franklin\n\nWhat do you need or who can you help today? It may just be a tweet away.\n\nOf course, there is no promise that one connection or one tweet will result in you making a billion dollars or impacting a billion lives.\n\nBut there is no promise it won\u2019t either.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457360633946","data":"56dd8f0b1d60b"}]

Shivaratri Rituals <\/p>
\n \nDevotees of Lord Shiva observe the Shivaratri Festival by following the prescribed rituals with sincerity and devotion. All through the day, devotees abstain from eating food and break their fast only the next morning, after the nightlong worship. Ritual baths of Shivalinga in the numerous Shiva temples by Shiva worshipper, mainly women, is another significant feature of Shivratri customs and traditions. Devotees strongly believe that ritual worship of Lord Shiva on the auspicious day of Shivaratri absolves them of past sins and they are blessed with Moksha.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457334163304","data":"56dd27ab4a9ee"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457333934705","data":"
Rituals Observed on a Shivaratri Morning <\/p>
As a tradition devotees wake up early in the morning of the Mahashivratri day and take a ritual sunrise bath, preferably in the holy waters of river Ganga. They also offer prayers to the Sun God, Vishnu and Shiva as a part of a purification rite observed on all-important Hindu festivals. After wearing fresh new clothes devotees visit the nearest Shiva Temple to give the customary bath to the Shivalinga.\n\nOn a Shivratri day, Shiva temples are thronged by devotees, mainly women, who come to perform the traditional Shivalinga pooja and seek blessings from the god. At times there is so much rush in the temples that devotees have to wait for their turn to observe pooja. At their turn for worship, devotees circumambulate the Shivalinga, three or seven times, and then pour water over it. Some also pour milk. Sounds of bell and shouts of \u2018Shankarji ki Jai\u2019 or (Hail Shiva) reverberate in the temple premises.\n\nRitual Bath of Shivalinga\nFollowing the rituals prescribed in the Shiva Purana, every three hours, Shivalingam is given a special bath with milk, yoghurt, honey, sandalwood paste and rose water. Puja, meditation and chanting of \u2018Om Namah Shivaya\u2019 accompany the ritual bath. Following the bath, vermilion paste is applied on the linga. Traditionally, leaves of a forest tree Aegle marmelos (bilwa, maredu, wood apple) are used for Shiva puja. Thereafter, Bilwa leaves, which have to be a stalk with three leaves, is kept on top of the Shivalinga. Ber or jujube fruit is a special offering to the god on this day. Beetle leaves are also offered by some. Some also offer bilwa leaves in the belief that the Goddess Lakshmi resides in them. Others believe it is offered for its cooling effects on the hot-tempered deity. Many devotees also decorate the linga with flowers and garlands and offer incense sticks and fruit.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457333971595","data":"
Significance of Puja Items<\/p>
\nAccording to the Shiva Purana, there is a special significance of the six essential puja items used in the Shiva worship.\nBathing of Shivalinga with water, milk and honey and wood apple or bel leaves added to it, represents purification of the soul.\nThe vermilion paste applied on the linga after the ritual bath represents virtue.\nOffering of fruits symbolizes longevity and gratification of desires.\nBurning of incense sticks yields wealth.\nThe lighting of the lamp symbolizes attainment of knowledge.\nOffering of betel leaves marks satisfaction with worldly pleasures.\n<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457334003716","data":"
All-Night Shiva Worship <\/p>
Worship of Lord Shiva continues all through the night on Shivaratri Festival. Devotees stay awake all night and spend the night in Shiva temples in worship of Lord Shiva. Singing of hymns and verses in praise and devotion of Lord Shiva besides the intense chanting of Om Namah Shivay, the mantra that is said free people from all their sins, continue through the night on Shivaratri.\n\nSpecial worship of Shiva by priests continues through the nightlong prayer vigil. During this ritual worship, Lord Shiva is offered special food made from the fruits of the season, root vegetables and coconuts.

Walking the hustle roads of Hyderabad requires great skills as you see,well,it's Hyderabad.I walked briskly along the road towards the KMIT lane.Exam Centre.

Sardar Ratan Pal Singh I know two people.Sameena and Ratan al. Sameena is my friend and Ratan Pal is my senior.Different right?

'What exam do you have today?' he looked at me with something of a little amusement.He knew it was my first supli. 'M1' I said pulling out my own All In One. 'Well you might want to be sure with the starting two units.' he said. 'I tried' I stopped opening my book and said to him'But come ON, I jus can't'Told him pointing the big bulky book to him.He laughed and continued with his work.Reading the book is one thing and taking such advice from seniors is another.Though I never tried to implement any of those.But listening is all we do. Kishore came into the canteen.Opened his own copy of the almighty All In One. 'I didn't even open the book yesterday macha.' There were despair and helplessness in his voice.We all have that one friend who helps us understand the important questions at the last minute of an exam thereby increasing our confidence in passing that subject.But the painful point is, we won't have that friend anywhere around a supplementary examination as he would have long passed the exam.I looked around the surroundings and recon the people who were all serious into their books and a few eating their late breakfasts. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457329374207","data":"56dd14ed6a7f6"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457329393701","data":"

I repeat Control Lost!!!! <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457251048956","data":"56dbe3a290c9d"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457251227485","data":"
2)\tJagaran<\/i>: The Official Night out<\/p>
We as kids have always liked the idea of staying up late at night and na..ah.., we never had this one come true; not even for the new year eves(Cuz we were kids! Duh!) but Shiv Ratri is our official night out licence and be it with family but the very thought of burning the mid night oil excited us as kids(But it was always the Bhajans that we did with them all night) .<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457251323493","data":"56dbe40906ef3"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457251334194","data":"
3)\t Kal <\/i>Bhi<\/i> C<\/i>hutti <\/i>(Tomorrow is a holiday)<\/p>
Now staying up late(Spelt \u2018Stay up till dawn\u2019) meant that you have to sleep the whole day tomorrow(No you didn\u2019t. I know). This means you either get a declared holiday or you just declare one for yourself. Either way, Kal chutti hain bhai!! <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457251428937","data":"56dbe4af89ac1"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457251493174","data":"
4)\tSweet Potato:chup..chup..chup.. <\/p>
Now these guys did the Ex-Machina during Shiv Ratri. When we were done with the evening\u2019s rituals and got back home from the temple, it was time to lift the fast(Finally!!) and what was the break-faster? No points for guessing, sweet Sweet Potato. All on rage with those Dates, Corn Kernels. Duff!!!! Eating never\u2019s been so healthy.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457251509767","data":"56dbe5006c13f"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457251576358","data":"
5)\tSpecial TV programs<\/p>
Telugu audience might relate a bit lot to this one than others. Television never loses an opportunity to take out festivals as a whole market season and cash em out. Special Jagaran programs, mythological film, special singing marathons. This was the time when the remote was really a remote thing in your hands. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457251654001","data":"56dbe5553ca45"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457251661607","data":"

The Rain Room installed 100 m2field rain and this included injection moulded tiles, solenoid valves.A dry zone is created around a person through 3-D sensors so that he wouldn\u2019t get wet.The visitors actually can experience unusual sensation of waters part in front of them.<\/p>
The next challenge was visibility of the rain. So, the artists concentrated on lighting. The droplets would not be visible with white light. They experimented with the black background and the angle of lighting.With that, they could finally create high contrast between the two which draws best out of each drop.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457204547823","data":"56db2d5211984"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457204560143","data":"
Moreover, to all this you can visit the Rain room for free in London. The artists have been so pleased and heaped with praise. Created by Random International Team. The RIM is now in demand and also is creating the same in Paris. May this team create wonders with a unique mix of art and technology.<\/p>

Our country India from the start is rich in culture and traditions. Our ancestors are sages and saints. They all had given many gifts to the world. Without Telescope, they identified 9 planets in our solar system. Without the help of modern science, they said when does the solar eclipse occur and when does the lunar eclipse occur. Infact there is no such science to prove it. They calculated the rotations of planets including earth in our solar system exactly without any science. But how is it possible? We have to question ourselves. And no wonder if we say is is the spiritual power obtained by meditation. Now what is this meditation? How to do it? And what is Meditational frequency? How it can be obtained? what is the use of this meditational frequency? Now you can learn and understand by this article.<\/p>
Meditation is nothing but concentrating on a certain thing. During meditation one's concentration should be on a single thing without any disturbance. We should not think anything. It is possible only by mere practice. There are certain methods to meditate. Concentrating on the region between eyebrows( It is the place where Agna chakra lies). The place is also called as BRUGUTI. And the easiest way of meditation is concentrating only on our breath(Inhalation and exhalation). We should just observe it, we should not inhale or exhale wantedly. By practicing it very regularly, one can see his soul inside. This happens through some steps. At starting stages, once we concentrate on it our breath slows down and one can listen the silence inside our body. Then one could see the light at BRUGUTI. Later one can realise the soul inside. Then one shall come to the conclusion that \"I AM NOT THE BODY, I AM THE SOUL LIVES IN THIS BODY. I AM ONLY THE WITNESS TO THE BODY\" It happens only when the 6 chakras(MULADHARA, SWADHISTANA, MANIPURAM, ANAHATAM, AGNA and SAHASRARA) of our body gets activated. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457194881942","data":"56db079a5ec49"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457194908756","data":"
This happens only through mere practice. Later the frequency of the spirit increases while meditation and decreases after meditation. This is called as meditational frequency. Now once the frequency of one individual soul matches with other, there generates a type of bondage and the communication starts.<\/p>
EXAMPLE 1: After the death of Swami Vivekananda, At somewhere the disciple of vivekananda is meditating, then the frequency of his soul matched with vivekananda. So he listened the voice of vivekananda that he has passed away 3 hours back.<\/p>
Example 2: We all are familiar with Tyagaraja. The Devotee of Lord rama. He got message from rama in his dream that at the bank of the river, my idol is there. You take it and place it in your house.How this happened he used to sing songs on rama and in the mean while unknowingly he went into meditation, always thinking about rama, he had acquired the frequency of rama.<\/p>
Once we realise the spirit within us, we can acquire any frequency basing upon our wants.<\/p>
For example The person A has realised his spirit, then he has got final frequency. He want to give some message to person B, but the frequency of B does not match with A as B did not acuired high frequency, then A can reduce his frequency and can make match with the frequency of B and can give message. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457196023400","data":"56db0c1333602"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457196052500","data":"
The next stage of meditation is ASTRAL TRAVEL. The spirit in our body comes out with some support like umballical cord. It can go anywhere, irrespective of materials like fire, water, air etc. We can see the planets, sun with any inconvinience. Thus our sages and rishis made astral travel and they found the secret of universe. The 9 planets, rotations etc.We can say our sages as spiritual scientists. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457196418009","data":"56db0d9c6158f"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1457196450751","data":"56db0db71172b"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1457196443275","data":"
the above images are images of astral travel. Once we come t the stage of meditational frequency we can be able to know about our past lives. (Reincarinations) <\/p>
And If all stages are completed then there will be no birth later. The soul will merge into the Infinite potential of almighty. <\/p>
This is the process and uses of meditation<\/p>
