"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Ⓝⓐⓥⓔⓔⓝ Ⓚⓤⓜⓐⓡ 🇮🇳 *FACTS ABOUT BHARAT* 🇮🇳 ======================= *Kerala* : It may derive from Sanskrit keralam, means 'the land added on', with reference to its mythical and geographical origins. Another prevailing theory states that it is an imperfect Malayalam portmanteau that fuses kera ('coconut palm tree') and alam ('land' or 'location' or 'abode of' ). Natives of Kerala—Keralites—thus refer to their land as Keralam. The most reliable theory is that the name is originated from the phrase chera alam . Kerala's tourism industry, among others, also use the phrase "The Gods own Country". ======================= 😀 *Thought of the day* * =======================  Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. ======================= * *JOKE OF THE DAY*  ======================= *Chintu* ki chhatri me suragh (hole) tha, kisine pucha, umbrella ⛱️me Suragh (hole) kyow?  *Chintu* : O yaar baarish ruk jayegi to pata kaise chalega....🤪🧐😆 ======================= *😳WHY❓❓❓* ======================= *Why does the sun not run out of oxygen as it burns?*  The sun does not run out of oxygen for the simple fact that it does not use oxygen to burn. The burning of the sun is not chemical combustion. It is nuclear fusion. It is more like a giant hydrogen bomb.  The sun gets so hot from its nuclear fusion that it glows and emits light, just like how a piece of metal glows red if you heat it up. Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles (neutrons or protons). ... Fusion is the process that powers active or main sequence stars and other high-magnitude stars, where large amounts of energy are released. ======================= *LEARN Sanskrit*🙏🏻 ======================= *सर्वं सम्भाव्यते त्वयि।*   तुम में सब सम्भव है।  you can do anything =======================  🤔 *HOW IT WORKS* ⁉ ======================= *What is edible gum made of?*  Gond is a natural gum made of hardened sap taken from two sub-Saharan species of the acacia tree, Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal.

Vastu Shastra may not be essential for living, but it is helpful for a better and healthier life. It is the science of environment you live in. The various gods that held the Vastu Purusha at various corners were assigned with those particular directions. So Lord Brahma occupied the center position which is mainly kept open to sky, this can be one of the reasons of courtyard planning. Fire God got South East position, Water God got North east position and so on. As per the position of God's got fixed so did the use of various activities in the building.

But during the course of time only superstition was left and the original principals were forgotten. That is why we see a lot of professionals who manipulate the science for their own personal benefits. ======================= 🧬 *HEALTH CARE: HOME REMEDIES*🩺 ( *Note* : These home tips followed in villages/ancient traditions, it is up to you to use it or not🙏🏻) ======================= *Benefits of walnuts?*  Good for the brain.
