IN PURSUIT OF INNER PEACE

Ms. Jayshri Paranjpe

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 3980 - 3986

The World today is in a state of chaos. We have been beating around the bush and no one has come to any logical reasoning as to why there is so much intolerance, unhappiness and destruction prevailing in spite of diligent work being carried out by International Peace Organizations. This lecture as organized by and conducted at Oriental College of Education - Sanpada, talks on the very important aspect Peace. The pursuit of peace which is within can be attained by following a few principles laid down by our old age researchers, Saints and Preachers. It touches a very delicate topic of how and where the afflictions arise and throws light on the path towards eradicating these afflictions and walking on the lane which takes one towards tranquillity and blissful life.

BIBLICAL APPROACH TO EXPERIENCE PEACE

Ketan Laxman Kamble

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 3987 - 3992

Present article focuses primarily on biblical strategies to pursue peace. It describes meaning of peace according to Old and New Testament of Bible, facts about peace in Bible and finally ways to pursue peace mentioned in it. Meaning and philosophy behind peace in Old and New Testament is different but well correlated. Peace is proclaimed by God, it is fruit of spirit, it is imparted by Jesus, godly people live in peace but there is no peace to wicked, unity is product of peace and we have to take efforts to pursue peace. We receive peace only through Jesus Christ, His Holy Blood, trusting on Him, by interceding for others, by loving word of God i.e. Bible, surrendering ourselves to Holy Spirit, by righteousness, seeking wisdom and being steadfast in God.

Keywords: peace, Bible.

INCULCATING VALUES OF PEACE IN GENERATION NEXT

Ms. Ketki Satpute

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 3993 - 4001

In today’s world, with increasing levels of problems, challenges, conflicts, violence-there is an increasing sense of peacelessness among people. Today’s society is experiencing the peace-crisis. Everyone will agree that the need for generating peace consciousness among the growing generation is vital. This is especially so in the contemporary world where violence is increasing vertically and horizontally. Mahatma Gandhi once stated, “If we are to reach real peace in this world thenwe shall have to begin with the children”.  If we want our young people to be successful in the world they will inhibit, they will need more than the knowledge we can measure on traditional tests. They will need to be equipped with skills, attitudes and habits required for solving problems unimaginable today.   Such individuals will have self- awareness, values of tolerance, compassion and competence to deal with crisis in a creative manner. In order to develop these attitudes, skills and competencies among pupils, the institutions of family and school have to make conscious efforts to promote peace related skills.  This paper aims at an understanding of ways and means to incorporate peace feeling at all levels of schooling. It is also indicated that how peace can be implanted in the mind of sensitive child of twenty first century at the school.  It has suggested few strategies for inculcating values of peace as a way of life in the classroom and in various extra-curricular activities of the school. Through the participatory activities they will be able to internalise the basic concepts of peace with its values and skills.  They can effectively implement these in their daily life situations.  They would become the peace-builders of the nation and would help to create the more peaceful and beautiful world.

PEACE FROM THE EYE OF GEN NEXT

Namrata Amit Sawant

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4002 - 4005


The definition of peace for every human is different. Everyone looks or tries to find out peace from varied zones. In today’s world we can see lot of things happening around us which bring negative energy. Due to which person’s inner peace shatters and a person may inculcate some unfruitful desires to attain the lost peace. But among all this the most effected zone is observed as youngsters. They are the immediate responders to any negative change around them. It is the responsibility of the society to help the coming generation develop their positive outlook. The youngsters can be from any strata of the society facing different problems but it is the responsibility of the society to help them identify some positive suitable ways which would take them to the path of progress and they can easily live a strong, healthy and happy life. But for that the youngsters must share their thoughts openly with their family and also understand the other moral values taught by their parents.

Keywords: Generation Next, Inner Peace, Children and Youngsters, Unfruitful Desires.

IN PURSUIT OF INNER PEACE

Pratibha Digamber Kambli

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4006 - 4012

Violence is emerging in an unprecedented manner in human society. Looking at the world today any sensible person feels disheartened and even horrified to see the kind of violent acts being committed by man against man and nature. It is sad to realize that we live in an era of unprecedented violence in the forms of terrorism, war, crimes, injustice and oppression and exploitation amidst a seemingly outward development enjoyed by a few. The majority of mankind lives in stark poverty, struggling for bare survival. There is so much disorder and confusion in the society man has built for himself.

LITERATURE IN PURSUIT OF INNER PEACE

Sudama S. Bhandari

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4019 - 4022

Peace in mind, peace in art

Peace in nature, peace in heart.

The soul is the supreme commander of peace which is known inner peace and the final destination of the life. The selfish world is in search of inner peace but to reach up to the inner peace there is need of Tapasya. Rishis and Maha rishis, pursuit inner peace. People wear different mask at different times. Some good and some bad in sake of satisfaction or peace. I don’t want you to stop wearing any one. I know it is too risky to expose your vulnerable self at times but I would definitely want you to unmask yourself. Why not for a short span get back to your origin strip, your emotions, feelings, thoughts and actions. And all could be possible through literature.There is need to discover and follow the inner peace. My question is how literature could be a part of inner peace. We know literature is the mirror of society. Literature could reach in the paradise, on the earth and in hell. Lord shiva got inner peace in the heaven, Ravana in the hell while lord Rama in the Prithvilok. All these stories highlighted through the literature. So literature plays very important role in search of inner peace.

FIVE QUINTESSENTIALS FOR PEACE

Ms S D Mudshingikar

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4023 - 4024

The musk deer is my insignia for inner peace. It knows not the value of its own preciousness, yet every where it goes, it spreads unintentionally, the sweet fragrance of its perfume. Since it is unaware of its own gift, there is no space for ego or gratuitousness in this deed. It is pure and sublime action unadulterated by feelings of being repaid….This; in my opinion is how a person with inner peace lives. Unbeknownst to all he/she silently sends out the radiance of peace and touches the lives of all around to reform it for the better. To do this, a prerequisite is to have inner peace… this reflective rendition, shares thought in this direction…

MY STRATEGIES: PEACE WITHIN ONESELF

Ratani Thakur

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4030 - 4034

Peace is a journey of a thousand miles and it must be taken one step at a time”- Lynden B Johnson. When peace comes to our minds we think about a world without problems, we think about a beautiful world without weapons and conflicts, where peace flourishes in all its meanings to different people, but that world may be unreachable if we do not maintain peace in our lives. Within ‘Peace’ is defined not just as the absence of war but also the presence of the condition for just and sustainable peace. We are in a great need of peace as today’s world is facing a lot of problem and due to which human beings are unhealthy. Health is stable well-being –physical, mental and social, it is not a mere absence of disease or complaints. To live a healthy and wealthy life, we need peace in our life i.e. inner as well as outer peace. A person who has inner peace will be seen with different symptoms and through which we can easily find out that he has peace within himself. To bring about peace within, I have suggested various ways which I applied for myself from time to time. By practicing these ways, definitely we get more peace within oneself. The significance for the study has become enormously all over the world because peace sustainability is a worldwide movement. Each and every individual wants to get peace within.

THE RELEVANCE OF DIAGRAMS IN SCIENCE TEACHING AND LEARNING

Rajesh Kumar & Gaurav Rao

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4035 - 4042

Since time immemorial, the educational process debatably involves a mediated communication between teachers and learners to add sense or meaning making for both the stakeholders. The diagrams and various illustrations are the meaningful resource to mediate the educational journey. Diagrams can break out of the linear and systemic nature of printed text to show non-linear and systemic feature. In Science teaching and learning process, the use of diagrams is more relevant to make the representations of complex systems. Presently the pedagogy of Science is becoming modified from Linguistic methods to a mixed-visual methods supplemented with new techniques. Diagrams and diagramming are features of teaching and learning practices both as a means of Instruction and as a means of training learners in the use of diagrams that are features of many working and practicing teachers. There is also seemingly important need to make diagrams accessible and meaningful to students, quite contrary to the mechanical manner in which it is perceived and used by them. This paper discusses the Diagrams and their relevance in Science teaching and learning since they have different purposes and are required for understanding and communication.

Key words: Linguistic, Mixed-visual methods, Diagrams, Non-linear.

EXAMINING THE EFFECT OF METACOGNITIVE SKILLS ON PERFORMANCE OF STUDENTS

C. Jeba Evangeline

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4054 - 4058

Researchers suggested that students with good metacognitive skills will be able to learn effectively. Thus, promoting metacognitive development in the classroom will help students to become efficient learners. This paper is an attempt to examine the effect of metacognitive skills on performance of students in the classroom. Many researchers believe that metacognitive skills holds great deal of promise for helping students do better. Metacognition becomes essential when tasks are more challenging.  Researchers found that metacognitive ability tends to associate positively with academic attainment of high school pupils. By practicing and applying metacognitive skills, students will become good readers, capable of handling any text across a curriculum. There is a lack of attention to this aspect by teachers in the classroom. Hence, the effort should be geared to encourage teachers to consider the \\\'metacognitive reflection\\\' activities in the classroom.

Keywords: Metacognitive skills, students\\\' performance, Metacogntive strategies.

SINO-INDIAN RELATIONS IN INDIAN OCEAN IN THE 21ST CENTURY: MARITIME SECURITY COOPERATION

Ravi Ashok Thorat

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4059 - 4067

The Sino-Indian relationship in the Indian Ocean Region is a unique relationship characterized by the elements of complex security. These two nations not only have to manage their age old rivalry, but also pursue cooperation. Over the last couple of years, both China and India have emerged as major economies and potential global powers and are together the topic of much academic focus and media coverage. The underlying elements of mistrust, tensions and disputes still remain deep rooted. However the regional shifts in the balance of power and changing dynamics in the international milieu have resulted in the two states striving to engage with each other, while simultaneously reviving the process of confidence building and also competing for greater global power and influence. The study is focusing on cooperation and competition between Sino-Indian relations with the help of Regional Security Complex Theory (RSCT) by Barry Buzan and Ole Waever. The paper analysed the importance of the Indian Ocean Region in India’s strategic thinking. Both are fast emerging as major maritime powers in the Indian Ocean Region as part of long-term shifts in the regional balance of power. As their interests, power expands and wealth, the two countries are also increasingly coming into contact with each other in the maritime domain. How India and China get along in the shared Indo-Pacific cooperation in the trade, coexistence, competition, or confrontation may be one of the key strategic challenges of the 21st century. The Sino-Indian relationship is a difficult one because the security relations remain relatively complicated and volatile is by numerous unresolved issues. India perceives China as attempting to restructure the strategic environment in its kindness, with by establishing positions with neighboring countries that could be used against India.

Sapna Sen & Vishal Sood

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4068 - 4078

All the teachers have the ability to teach but what is more important is the belief in their ability to teach. The present research study was undertaken to investigate self-efficacy of secondary school teachers and how it is influenced by gender, teaching experience and change proneness. Descriptive survey method was employed for the present investigation. Incidental sampling technique was used to select the sample of 1048 teachers from eight districts of Himachal Pradesh. Change Proneness Inventory by Dr. M. Mukhopadhhyay (2012)and self-developed teacher self-efficacy scale were used to collect data. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and two way analysis of variance. It was revealed that the male teachers were more self-efficacious as compared to female secondary school teachers. Change proneness was found to be a significant variable in influencing self-efficacy of secondary school teachers in a positive manner. None of the interactional effects was found to be significant.

Keywords: Self-Efficacy, Change Proneness.

SHASHI DESHPANDE’S ‘STRANGERS TO OURSELVES’: A STORY OF INEXPLICABLE MARITAL RELATIONSHIPS

Tukaram S. Sawant

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4090 - 4095

 The present article attempts to explore the intricate nature of marital relationships in Deshpande’s novel, Strangers to Ourselves. Shashi Deshpande, the author of ten novels, two novellas, four books for children and a large number of short stories, has been writing about issues and problems of middle-class Indian women caught in the trap of Indian patriarchy. She has a comprehensive understanding of the grass-root reality and women’s place and position, sorrows and sufferings, plight and predicament, pain and agony in a male-centric Indian society. Her women protagonists, by and large, find themselves to be the victims of unjust customs, conventions and traditions which are in favour of men. Unable to bear restrictions and compulsions imposed on them in the name of gender-discrimination in their parental homes, they use marriage as an escape route, but unfortunately, in most cases, marriage becomes a trap for them. They are humiliated, tortured and exploited in one way or the other. They face physical violence in the form of unwanted marital-sex, almost a rape and mental torture. Her novels move around marital relationships which are marred by the evils such as male pride, ego and domination, patriarchal attitude to women, lack of understanding and communication.

Keywords: exploitation, inexplicable, mangalsutra, promiscuity, reconciliation.

MADE IN CHINA - A THREAT FOR INDIA? - A STUDY THROUGH THE HIDDEN FACTS

Jayadas. S

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4096 - 4099


The Chinese economy rose at a violent pace for the past three decades, assisting China to build enormous cash reserves that is now playing an acute role in influencing India\\\'s markets. Chinese made goods have occupied almost all the sectors of Indian market and appear to be conveying harder times for the Indian industry. Because of varied availability of inexpensive and seemingly technologically advanced China made goods, many economists fear weakening of local manufacturing divisions or the small-scale industry in India.  China procured the world by storm through its low-cost manufactured products. Foreign markets swamped with China made goods are evidence to that. The present study includes the analysis of made in china products, its impacts on Indians, deciding whether it is a threat to Indians or not, objectives of possible threats, assumed hypothesis in this direction, corresponding results and discussion, finding, recommendations and scope of further research in this direction.

Vaishali Kulkarni

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4100 - 4106

 English is one of the most spoken languages worldwide and is widely used as official communication language. It is equally important and an integral part of educational system. It is a window to the world. It is an effective instrument for acquisition of knowledge, for communication, personal development and national development. Language is the most important aspect in the life of all beings. We use language to express our inner thoughts and emotions. If we are not able to communicate in proper language we will not be able to convey our thoughts effectively. Special efforts at school level itself are required on the part of teacher and learner for acquiring skills for language proficiency. So a teacher should be aware about the needs of the learners, objectives of the course and different ways of analysing language. Teacher should be aware of the latest teaching methodology, approaches and techniques for teaching language effectively. The latest trend is based on the premise that learning needs to be connected to the lives of the students through relevant tasks that focus on student’s ability to use their knowledge and skills in meaningful ways. A skill is a tact, expertness and dexterity. It is a practised ability. It implies facility, ease, smoothness and accuracy in an action or in doing or to do something. This part of the research paper mentions the five language skills. They are the abilities and tacts. They are essential for learning the English language and for using the language for various purposes. These skills should develop accuracy, ease and facility in using the language. There are four basic skills in English language. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The fifth skill which is included is ‘interacting’ which is very important and essential for better communication. This paper highlights four basic skills in English language, its meaning and activities to be conducted to develop these skills.

Distinctively, participatory visual communications, like drawing, photography, and video, hold the aesthetics of painting which directly impact on reality of world lives, while at the other hand empowering the researchers and capturing real world expressions. Through the process of visual conceptualization, and the reflective photographic communication of the images in the context of their construction, where I tried to out the subject are given an expressive channel to voice their inner stories of human communities, as well as active empowering stake in the research study, because of its playful nature and its lack of interdependence on linguistic proficiency, this research method is especially suitable for work with children and youth across a variety of cultural contexts.

Paromita Das

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4156 - 4164

Life is based on one’s own philosophy and those which we follow from our great philosophers and educators  to improve our society and education system. Scientific thinking gives answers to many questions but it cannot bring humanity in the minds of people. For this we should realize the needs of every individual and give our best efforts to lead a satisfactory life and face the practical situation with a positive outlook. The narrowness in our thinking should be transformed into creative thoughts along with the inspirations taken from the great philosophers so that the higher education becomes a right to all and everyone aspires for it. Also the facilities provided should be to make each one a better human being. The present paper has been produced by taking into consideration the trends existing in present higher education and the philosophical approaches that have been implemented with its impact on students. The ideas of students have been collected to find out the suitability of the components of the present higher education. This can bring about a revolution by bringing changes in the narrow and rigid thoughts existing since ages and providing better outputs in education to make society a peaceful dwelling place.

INSPIRING STUDENTS FOR GREENING WITH TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS

Ajay Godara

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4172 - 4178

Technology has become a huge part of everyday society’s life. When societies know more about the development in a technology, they become able to take advantage of it. When an innovation achieves a certain point after it has been presented and promoted, this technology becomes part of the society. Digital technology has entered each process and activity made by the social system. The effects of technology on the environment are both obvious and subtle. The more obvious effects include the depletion of nonrenewable natural resources such as petroleum, coal, ores, and the added pollution of air, water, and land. The more subtle effects include debates over long-term effects e.g., global warming, deforestation, natural habitat destruction, coastal wetland loss. So, an initiative was taken to inspire students for greening with technological advancements by two highly motivating projects: Nokia- Planet ke Rakhwale and Microsoft: Create to Inspire School Programmes. This article presents the overview of these two projects and students’ role in protecting our planet.

PROBLEMS OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION

Mahavir Singh Chhonkar

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2016 | Volume/Issue:3/18 | Page No.: 4203 - 4208

Kothari Commission righty said, “The destiny of the nation is shaped in the classroom” So the education system of India mainly developed during the colonial rule, demands major change as well as innovation. After 60 year of independence we did not change the colonial pattern of education. Still we are following the Macaulayian system of education and hence producing the ‘Brown Englishmen’. So the need of time is to establish our own kind of education system which suits our environment with the contemporary changes. Curriculum is required the major changes. Instead of opening the uncountable colleges/institution we need to emphasize on quality Institutions. If we really want to bring innovations in our education, we need root level changes in our education system and honest implementation.
