DEAR ALL FAMILY MEMBERS
JAI MATA JI
MAKING PRESENTATIONS
There are two secrets to making a good presentation,
preparation and practice. Take time to prepare properly and your
chances of success will increase tremendously.
Your presentation should be relevant, simple and to the point.
Your audience will be more impressed by the depth and wealth
of your knowledge rather than a show of false intellect and wit.
Your positive attitude, energy and enthusiasm will speak
volumes. Your audience will remember this long after the details of
your speech have been forgotten.
Make proper notes of your presentation. Structure your speech
around three or four main points. These should be typed neatly so you
can refer to them when required.
Keep your audience interested by adding a few relevant
anecdotes.
Prepare by rehearsing in front of a mirror and if possible at
the venue. Make sure you can see your notes properly at all times.
Take a deep breath and smile.
It an audience is hostile remain polite and courteous. If
your audience has specialist knowledge of your subject refer to them.
Redirect difficult questions back to the audience.
If it is a bored audience, ensure that the point you are
making is relevant. Otherwise cut it. Be enthusiastic. Vary the pace
of your presentation and make eye contact. Keep the mood of audience
in mind and vary pace and length of your presentation accordingly.
Make sure the audience leaves the venue feeling informed.
Make sure you deliver the main points and concept of your
presentation FIRST. The audience will stay more focused and
attentively alert.
Read through your speech to see that you have prioritized all
the facts correctly and included al the essential information
Fill your material with relevant examples to reinforce your
main points.
Do use simple direct sentences.
Use the pronouns `YOU' and `I' often.
Use active verbs like run, go, do, use etc.
Sprinkle your speech liberally with adjectives.
Prepare and rehearse phrases to avoid stumbling.
Always rehearse your presentation using your chosen audio
video visual aids.
If you are giving handouts distribute them before your
preventative preferably during a break. Make sure you give your
handouts a purpose by referring to them during your presentation.
Always be well groomed and study yourself in a mirror to see
what impression you make.
Keep your hands out of your pocket while making a
presentation.
Make sure you body language reflects what you are saying.
Involve members of the audience by asking them questions at
regular intervals.
The audience will ask questions. Prepare a list of questions
that may be asked and get your answers ready.
Say GOOD POINT to encourage a questioner who looks shy or
nervous.
Questions should always be answered one at a time.
Address the answers to the whole audience and not only the
questioner.
Win over your audience with your knowledge (Refer Pt.1)
If your are stating facts, back it up with solid evidence.
Always tell me truth because the audience will quickly
recognize insincerity and question your authority.
Last but not the least always closes with a good strong
summary and a heartfelt `Thank you' they listened to you patiently
didn't they?
THANX TO ALL

Dear all Rajput world members
Jai Mata Ji Ki
*_The Secret to Success _*
Deep in our hearts, most of us have dreams we would like to accomplish.
But a few of us dare to start the journey. We sit around blaming others
for our circumstances and make excuses for our shortsightedness, and
then go to our graves with unfulfilled dreams. Underneath it all, the
real reason for not getting the promotion, succeeding in the business,
or raising a happy, self-confident family is that we fail to prepare for
them. We leave things to chance, hoping that somehow things will turn
out all right. We float on the ocean of life until we run aground and
wreck ourselves.
*/Five Ways to Prepare Yourself for Success/*
*1) Become an Avid Reader: /"Good leaders are good readers"/* *--Jim
Rohn*
Abraham Lincoln once said that if he were given eight hours to chop down
a tree, he would spend six hours sharpening his axe and two hours
chopping down the tree. That is one of the true characteristics of a
leader. We should take time to sharpen our axes -- by reading! Believe
it or not, the average American reads just one book a year. What that
means for you and me is that if we read only one book a month, we will
be twelve years ahead, of the average American person!
The late Earl Nightingale, in his book, /The Strangest Secret/, said
that if we read for two hours every day on any subject, in five years,
we would become national experts on that particular subject. And in ten
years, we would have the equivalent of a Ph.D. To me, reading quality
books is the ultimate joy in life. It rekindles my hopes and takes me to
new heights. It rejuvenates me and gives me a boost. Today when we can
even buy books on tape, thereby turning our cars into a university on
wheels while commuting to and from work, we can no longer make excuses
about not having the time to read. To ensure that we are on the road to
success, we must gather a lot of information through quality reading.
*2) Network with Successful People*
In America, there is an association for continuing education in every
line of business. If we want to meet the movers and shakers directly, we
have to join the club.
*3) Find a Mentor***
Every great athlete, celebrity, and business executive can attribute his
success to a mentor -- a coach. Each successful person had a mentor who
helped them to get where he is today. One of the best methods of
preparation is to find a mentor -- a person who has been there, done it
all -- to guide you along the way.
*4) Attend Continuing Education Classes***
Our minds are like leaky buckets; what we know is constantly dripping
out. I read a story about a man who was working for a company for about
twenty years. It seemed like they always passed him over for promotions.
Ironically, he had trained new hires who would eventually become his
boss. One day he confronted the president of the company with the
situation. He told his boss that he was being treated unfairly,
especially since he had had twenty years of experience with the company.
The president sat the man down and told him, "No! You only have one year
of experience repeated for twenty years."
How long have you been in your line of business? Are you acquiring new
knowledge, or are you applying old knowledge? If you want to thrive and
survive in today's turbulent times, you must expand your mind by
studying further.
*5) Find Time for Quiet Reflection***
The great philosophers, thinkers, scientists, and business gurus always
find quiet time to be alone -- to ponder, re-charge their energies and
flood their minds with images of their future goals. Often we are so
busy chasing a dream that we can no longer visualize it in our minds.
There are times when the burdens are heavy, but this is when we need to
enter our inner world and examine our lives. Socrates once said to his
students, "An unexamined life is not worth living." Quiet reflection
is
a time to get to know the invisible power that sustains our lives.
Starting today, take a few moments every day to reflect.

The ASI Report - Ayodhya & Rajputs
THE Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) report of
August 2003 is the fifth on the historical topography
of Ayodhya. A.E. Cunningham conducted the first survey
in Ayodhya in 1862-63 followed by another in 1889-91
by A. Fuhrer. Professor A.K. Narain conducted the
third excavation in Ayodhya in 1969-70, and finally,
Professor B.B. Lal conducted a more intensive and
revealing study of the area in 1975-76.
The intention of Cunningham's survey was to re-locate
Buddhist sites and to establish the Buddhist
antecedents of Ayodhya. He accepted the association of
Ayodhya with the traditions of Rama and asserted that
the present-day Ayodhya was the Ayodhya of the
Ramayana years. He also concluded that the cities of
Visakha, Saketa and Ayodhya were the same (A.E.
Cunningham, "Report of the Proceedings of the
Archaeological Surveyor to the Government of India for
the Season of 1862-63," in Journal of Asiatic Society
of Bengal, 1865). Fuhrer's report is an extension of
the earlier report. He tried to confirm Rajput
presence in Ayodhya in the 11th and 12th centuries
A.D. by referring to three copper-plate land grants
reportedly found in the area (A. Fuhrer, Report of the
Archaeological Survey of India (New Series), Volume
II, 1891).
Surprisingly, of the three plates only one is known,
the other two remain unknown and only facsimile copies
of these grants were available to the Asiatic Society
of Bengal (Centenary Review of the Asiatic Society of
Bengal, From 1784 to 1883, Calcutta,1885).
Narain observed that the excavated sites indicated
human habitation as old as the 5th century B.C. He was
also convinced that there was evidence of strong
Buddhist presence in the area (Indian Archaeology
1969-70 - A Review, page 40). He fixed the antiquity
of Ayodhya to early 17th century B.C. Lal excavated
the mound of the Babri Masjid and observed "a fairly
compact and working sequence for the antiquity of the
place from its first settlement over the natural
soil". His conclusions were interesting: "The
occupational phases of the mound appears to have
continued up to circa third century A.D., represented
by several structural phases. In the earlier stages,
the houses were of wattle and daub or mud, followed by
those of baked bricks. In the Janma Bhumi area a
massive wall of bricks was observed, which may perhaps
be identified as a fortification-wall." Also, Lal
arrived at certain interesting inferences regarding
large-scale trade and commerce in Ayodhya in the early
centuries of the Christian era. He also added that it
was rather remarkable that the Gupta period was not
significantly indicated at the sites in Ayodhya and
"after the early historic deposits, there is a break
in occupation, with considerable debris and pit
formations before the site was again occupied around
the eleventh century A.D" (Indian Archaeology 1976-77
- A Review, pages 52-53).
The voluminous ASI report pushes back human habitation
in the area to the mid-13th century B.C. Again, unlike
the earlier reports, it observes continuous human
habitation on the site right from 1300 B.C. until the
16th century A.D. The report substantiates this
observation by putting together a large number of
cultural artefacts signifying different periods in
history. However, it concludes the summary of its
report with a tacit admission that this assumption may
be erroneous: "Another noteworthy feature is that it
was only during and after Period IV (Gupta level)
onwards up to Period IX (late- and post-Mughal level)
that the regular habitational deposits disappear in
the concerned levels and the structural phases are
associated with either structural debris or filling
material taken out from the adjoining area to level
the ground for construction purpose. As a result...
much of the earlier material in the form of pottery,
terracottas and other objects of the preceding
periods, particularly of Period I (Northern Black
Polished Ware (NBPW) level) and Period III (Kushan
level) are found in the later periods mixed along with
their contemporary material" (ASI Report, Ayodhya
2002-2003, Volume I, Chapter X, page 271).
Again, unlike Lal, the ASI report fails to inform us
of any human activity other than settlement in the
area. Further, the report makes no attempt to
co-relate its findings with local history except when
it identifies a complete stratum as belonging to
Period IV, or the "Early Medieval Rajput level". This
intervention in local history is both clever and
deliberate, since the Rajput period in Indian history
has somehow become synonymous with Brahmanical
resurgence.
THE process of constructing a history of India started
in the early 19th century. The Asiatic Society of
Bengal was a pioneer in this venture. Its efforts were
determined both by colonial considerations and a
serious interest in understanding the antiquity of
India. It brought together source material that
included local traditions, legends and myths, along
with inscriptions and coins. The textual source
material had in the words of Rajendralala Mitra, "in
the course of many centuries, accumulated in the great
epic poems, the Puranic cyclopaedias and provincial
chronicles, written for the most part in scholastic
Sanskrit language by authors for whom history and
fiction seemed not to have been antagonistic"
(Centenary Review of the Asiatic Society of Bengal
From 1784-1883, Part I, History of the Society,
Calcutta, 1885, page 82). With such limitations, the
history of the early period was bound to be focussed
on the ruling dynasties. Complications arose after
1830 on the issue of dating events related with
Vikramaditya.
Both George Turnour and James Prinsep had come across
new historical discoveries. Turnour reported the Pali
Buddhist Annals of Ceylon and it became necessary to
introduce a break in the Brahmanical period - a
distinction was made between the Vikramaditya of the
Mauryas and Vikramaditya of the Guptas. Cunningham
carried forward the tradition introduced by Turnour
and was able to demonstrate a strong Buddhist presence
in early India. It was understood that the gradual
decline of Buddhism was necessarily followed by the
rise of Rajput ruling dynasties in different regions
of north India, running concurrently with a resurgence
of Brahmanism.
The origin of the Rajputs and their rule was always a
serious concern of colonial historiography. The
colonialist rationalised that there was a continuous
state of conflict between Hindus and Muslims in India
prior to the advent of British rule. In this it was
imagined that Rajputs, the vanguard of Brahmanism,
were necessarily the leaders of aggressive opposition
to Muslim rule in India. As such, the Asiatic Society
of Bengal engaged itself with the process of
constructing a history of Rajputs. Several writings
were compiled and by 1885 the Society believed that it
had constructed a complete history of several Rajput
dynasties in north India (Centenary Review of the
Asiatic Society of Bengal, From 1784 to 1883).
The kingdom of Kanauj was the first Rajput
principality that gained significance. This was
probably because of the reported discovery in 1807 of
a copper plate inscription. (The Society received
several reports of such discoveries of inscriptions.
These inscriptions were carved either on metal plates
or stone slabs and they confirmed land grants. In the
nineteenth century after the East India Company had
expanded territorially, it made it necessary for those
claiming land rights to demonstrate a basis for the
claim. In these circumstances, several inscriptions
asserting such claims were found to be fake.) H.T.
Colebrooke received a facsimile copy of the
above-mentioned land grant and he immediately declared
it a fake. However, he found it interesting for it
gave the genealogy of the ruling family of Kanauj
(Miscellaneous Essays of H.T. Colebrooke, (ed). E.B.
Cowell, London, n.d., Volume II, pages 213-280). Soon
after, several discoveries of such grants were
reported and after 1881, the Society constructed a
history of the Rajput families ruling in the different
regions of north India.
The ASI report cleverly and deliberately introduced
the term "Rajput" to define a stratum. This is clearly
an effort to correlate that dynastic period with the
supposed shrine-like structure and a wall that
allegedly predates the mosque. The ASI first suggests
that the wall having decorated stone blocks appears
similar to the "Dharmachakrajina Vihara of Kumardevi,
Queen of Gahadwal ruler Govindchandra of the twelfth
century A.D. at Sarnath" (Volume I., pages 52 and 56).
It then attempts to show a close resemblance of the
alleged shrine-like structure with some temples in
north India and concludes: "Thus on stylistic grounds,
the present circular shrine can be dated to c. tenth
century A.D. when the Kalchuris moved in this area and
settled across river Sarayu. They possibly brought the
tradition of stone circular temples transformed into
brick in Ganga-Yamuna valley" (Volume I., page 71).
It is surprising that the report should try to
associate Ayodhya so closely with the Rajput kingdoms
of either Kanauj or Banaras for there is no evidence
to support the premise that any of these ruling
families had their seat of authority in Ayodhya. Also,
there is no reliable evidence to establish the
presence of the Kalchuris in Ayodhya. There is some
doubtful evidence regarding the Kalchuris control over
Pratabgarh and Rae Bareli (Vishudanand Pathak, Uttar
Bharat ka Rajnayatik Itihas, Uttar Pradesh Hindi
Sansthan, Lucknow, 1990, pages 607-633). In history,
the Kalchuris are understood as an insignificant clan
limited to the Narbada area (A.C. Bannerjee, Lectures
on Rajput History, Calcutta, 1962, page 24).
The Kalchuri kingdom extended as far as Rewa and on
that basis it was assumed that they might have
extended their influence into Pratabgarh and Rae
Bareli. There is no reliable evidence of their
presence in Ayodhya or Faizabad. Again, the reference
to the Kalchuris is deliberate for they were said to
be Saivas and the report obliquely suggests that the
shrine could be a Shiva temple.
There is a common tendency, in the construction of the
past, to overlook the contribution of people who lived
in certain areas and influenced developments there. In
Avadh, any construction activity during the so-called
"Rajput" period, as alleged by the report, can only be
attributed to either the Bhars, the Arakhs or the
Pasis, who local tradition holds, ruled during those
times. The gazetteers (both district and provincial)
inform us that Ayodhya became a wilderness after the
5th century A.D. Local tradition relates that Rajput
and Muslim settlers in the area expelled certain low
caste tribes of Bhars, Arakhs and Pasis. Sir Henry
Elliot wrote that the "Bhars overran the country after
the loss of Ajodhya by the Surajbansi tribes. The
country had then relapsed into primeval wilderness.
The native's only conception of it is that of a vast
uninhabited jungle in which none but saints and
anchorites lived, who passed their time in prayer and
meditation. Raja Janimijai, son of Parikshit, grandson
of Raja Judhishtir, of mythical times, granted them
the land in Jagir".
A significant presence of these people in the area can
also be deduced with the foundation of several towns
like Marion to Mandal Rikh, Mohan to Mohan Gir
Goshain, Jaggaur to Jagdeo Jogi. In local memory, the
Bhars are said to have ruled until the 12th century
A.D. over an area that stretched in the south till the
river Sai. The provincial gazetteer edited by W.C.
Benet observed: "Their total extermination does not
favour the belief that they could have belonged to the
mass of people, but as a proprietary body their
disappearance, with the loss of land, seems
intelligible, and as a fact common enough." The
presence of the Bhars in Avadh is attested by the
presence of several dihs (mounds) that were built in
bricks.
The presence of the Pasis in the area was attested by
their huge population. In 1871 they numbered 700,000.
In local folklore they are said to have ruled over
vast areas. In Avadh their area of control stretched
as far as Amethi. Also, local tradition related that
the area in which the Pasis lived was known as the
"ganjar plain, or plain of iron; so called from the
warlike demeanour of the natives, and it seems to have
given the name of Ganjaria to the whole of Oudh" (W.C.
Benet, Gazetteer of the Province of Oudh, 3 Volumes,
Calcutta, 1877, Volume II, pages 353-355. Also, H.R.
Nevill, Fyzabad: A Gazetteer, Volume XLIII of the
District Gazetteers of the United Provinces of Agra
and Oudh, Allahabad, 1906). In the absence of any
reliable historical evidence or local tradition, it is
difficult to assume an influential presence of the
Rajputs in Ayodhya between the 5th and the 12th
centuries A.D.
THE ASI report fails to give the topographical
features of the disputed area. (It provides a contour
map of the disputed area and its environs but does not
refer to it in the text.) It does enumerate some
topographical characteristics of the district in the
opening pages of the report (these being borrowed from
the latest district gazetteer of Faizabad) but
significant and immediate topographical realities of
the disputed site have been overlooked. It does not
say that the Babri mosque rested over an elevated
area, that is, a mound, and that there was another
mound known to the local people as the "Kuber Teela"
immediately to the south of the Babri mosque. This
mound was said to be 28 feet (8.53 metres) above the
ground level (Cunningham's report in the Journal of
the Asiatic Society, 1865).
Again, the ASI report seems not to have any use for
the fact that the massive wall in the west supporting
the mosque rested over the bed of a flowing river,
which was reported dry in 1862-63 by Cunningham
(Archaeological Survey Of India: Four Reports made
during the years 1862-63-64-65, Volume I, Simla,
1871). B.B. Lal bears out the observation of
Cunningham and writes: "The fortification-wall appears
to have had a deep ditch, almost like a moat, just on
its exterior, which was partly cut into the natural
clay overlying the fluviatile sand bed" (Indian
Archaeology 1976-1977 - A Review, page 52). The height
of the massive wall in the west from the ground level
to the base of the mosque was between 16 feet (4.88
metres) and 20 feet (6.09 metres).
The report commits the blunder of alleging the
presence of a temple/shrine like structure below the
"C" floor of the mosque. The alleged shrine is said to
be 1.5 feet (0.46 metre) below the last floor of the
mosque and its height from the base as shown in figure
17 in the report is about 3 feet (0.91 metre). This
would mean that this structure was located between 4.5
and 5 feet (1.37 and 1.52 metres) below the "C" floor
of the mosque. The difference in terms of time between
the alleged shrine and the "C" floor of the mosque is
very short. In such circumstances can we imagine a
temple/shrine located at a depth immediately to the
west of the mound on which the Babri mosque stood?
Again, the report apparently attempts to distinguish
the structure found just below the three floors of the
mosque on the basis of its shape and the material used
therein. It says that two different sizes of bricks
have been used. It suggests that the bricks have been
put together using a mixture of lime as was evident
from the block which it imagined as the threshold of
the alleged temple/shrine. It is known that the
admixture of lime was commonly used as a building
material in India after the 10th century A.D. It is
also known that the structures of both the temple and
the mosque utilised different sizes of stones or
bricks as is evident in the temples and mosques raised
during or after the 11th/12th centuries A.D. in India.
In the circumstances, with the time lapse between the
two structures being small and the shape of the
structure being unclear, it is difficult to infer with
certainty that it was either a shrine or a temple.
Also, it is difficult to distinguish any material as
exclusive to any religious community in a mixed
society where sharing and borrowing were common (R.S.
Tripathi, Lectures on Early Medieval India, Allahabad,
n.d.).
THE presence of this controversial structure can be
understood only in the context of the mosque. In the
geographical reality of the area in which the mosque
stood, it could be imagined that the builders meant it
to be a kind of a dyke with an opening on one side, to
hold the excess water that flowed in from the
southeast. Also, as the structure remains attached by
way of the walls with the outer enclosure of the
mosque, it could be assumed that it might have been
used to strengthen the hold on the outer walls
enclosing the area of the mosque. An observation of
the disputed structure before its demolition confirms
that the outer wall running south to east was bent
outwards. Surprisingly, this was not the case with the
boundary wall running north to east enclosing the
mosque. This confirms the assumption that accumulated
water that entered the area from the southeast neither
harmed nor destabilised the foundation of the disputed
structure in the north as it did in the south.
The ASI report does not reflect on the construction of
the mosque. In fact, with regard to the mosque, the
report provides extensive details related with the
pillars and pillar bases that were found either
embedded or lying on the floors of the mosque.
Although the report nowhere hints at any activity of
destruction, it appears to suggest that the pillars
were foreign to the structure of the mosque.
Again, the ASI report gives us several irrelevant
details regarding objects that were found lying over
the various levels of the mosque. It must be
remembered that the site of the mosque had become
extremely corrupt with the passage of time. The
disputed site in Ayodhya was dug up several times.
This happened for instance, in 1855, when a large
number of dead bodies were buried and the burial place
came to be known as Ganj-I-Shahidan. It was dug up
again in December 1949 and then at subsequent
intervals. The terracotta, figurines, glazed wares and
other objects found littered on the floors of the
mosque must be assessed for their significance against
this background.
For all its blunders, the ASI report is significant
for the light it sheds, unwittingly, on the technology
applied in the construction of the mosque. It was said
that in Ayodhya three mosques were constructed on the
spots related with the life of Lord Rama. These were
the Babri mosque and two others at Swargadwar and
Treta-ke-Thakur. While the first was assigned to
Babur, the other two were related to Aurangzeb, that
is, there was a lapse of two centuries between the
construction of the first and the other two. Despite
this, the Babri mosque remained intact until the
vandalism of December 6, 1992, though the other two
mosques were reported to be in ruins by 1877. All the
three mosques stood either on the bank or on the bed
of the river. The Babri mosque stood on a massive
embankment raised on the bed of the river in the west.
There must have been immense problems in the
construction of the mosque for there was a higher
mound to its south. In the south the flow of water
during the monsoon season must have been immense and
rapid.
Cunningham's report says that most of the Jami Masjids
or the main mosques in the area around Ayodhya were
situated at a central place preferably on a mound
close to the river. The Babri mosque too was centrally
situated on a mound. A question arises: why did the
builders of the mosque choose that location when to
the south, on the Kuber Teela, they had access to a
higher, central and more stable site? It appears that
the Kuber Teela did not suit the builders of the
mosque for there was a shrine-like structure on its
top.
The construction of the mosque must have been a
problematic issue with the builders and this is
evident from the ASI report. The report observes three
successive floors of the mosque. This would either
mean that the mosque was raised on the first floor and
after its fall, it was raised again by using two
successive platforms to strengthen the base or that
the mosque was raised on each floor where one
succeeded the other after its fall. In the
circumstances of the location of the mosque, it was
inevitable that during the monsoon season, a huge
volume of water would be accumulating under its floor.
This would naturally disturb and harm the foundations
of the mosque.
As such, a mosque must have been constructed on the
first floor in the 13th century. It must have fallen
after some time because of the flow of water effecting
its foundation. Another mosque might have been
constructed by raising two more floors over the first
floor. It appears from the report that the last two
floors were made to rest on pillars, where the rows of
pillars in the north and south were more in number
than in the other areas. The use of the pillars in the
base strengthened the building for it allowed free
movement to the water that apparently entered the area
of the mosque from the southeast.
The ASI creates confusion by reporting stone columns
and pillars representing Hindu, Buddhist or Jaina
elements. In the first half of the 19th century, James
Fergusson circulated the idea that Muslim invaders
destroyed Indian places of worship and used its
material to erect mosques. Later, in the early 20th
century E.B. Havell revised this idea and made a
distinction between the early Muslim constructions in
and around Delhi and the later-day constructions in
the regional areas where the Delhi Sultanate had
expanded.
He wrote that Muslims in the early part of their rule
wished to provide immediately a roof to the devotees
to pray and therefore re-used the material of the
destroyed temples. However, as the element of
immediacy was absent in the case of regional
buildings, several Indian artisans were employed for
purposes of construction. The Indian artisans, who
were admired for their skills, freely employed their
indigenous art and technique to construct buildings
for the Muslims. As such, it was natural to observe
Hindu, Buddhist or Jaina elements in the carvings of
the pillars or decorations in columns holding the
wall. The presence of numerous Hindu, Buddhist or
Jaina elements in the cutting of stone blocks and
carving of stone pillars in Muslim buildings of that
period is more of a tribute to the skill of the local
artisan than a comment on the alleged iconoclasm of
the Muslims.

Mosque: A Historical Inquiry (Sage, Delhi, 1991).

![]()

Dear all the family members
jai mata ji
What do carry with you for the interview
A person can be called well prepared when he or she is carrying
everything which may be required during the interview. At times you
may presume that you will be able to find certain items like plain
paper. Pen, envelopes, clips, etc. at the venue of interview itself
but it may be surprisingly difficult to find them just when you
actually need them. Sometimes in a rush to get to the venue you may
forget a simple thing like your handkerchief or a comb and then feel
awkward while entering the interview hall with untidy hair. And god
help you, if you want to sneeze and have no tissue handy !
To avoid such last minute tension, prepare a checklist and keep all
the items in one place a day prior to the interview so that you do
not forget anything important.
Checklist
 File with certificates, documents and
proof of your
qualifications.
 Set of duplicate copies of all your
certificates, degrees and
marksheets.
 Extra copy of your resume.
 Two passport size photographs; if
more have been specifically
asked for, keep additional copies as well.
 Interview call letter and other
important correspondence with
the company.
 Address and telephone number of the
organization written on a
small piece of paper and kept handy in case you cannot find the venue
easily.
 Map of city if you are new to the
place.
 A small notepad.
 A pen. It is better to keep an extra
one as well and to make
sure both write well.
 A few sheets of your letterhead, or
plain writing paper.
 Your business card (if you have one).
 A few one-rupee coins for making
telephone calls.
 Your watch.
 Enough money as you may be required
to buy your meal if the
interview is delayed.
 Safety pins.
 A small sachet of freshner or
cologne.
 A clean handkerchief and a small
towel.
 Some reading material in case you
have to wait for your
interview turn.
 A few rubber bands.
 Some lozenges in case you are
suffering from cough or bad
throat.
 A pocket calendar.
 A piece of cloth to tissue for wiping
your shoes.
 Sunglasses, in summer.
 Vanity bag for girls.
 Toilet Kit.
If you have your own vehicle, do check the night before for petrol,
air pressure in tyres, etc. and do not forget to carry all the
required car papers and your driving licence.

STORY:
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree.
A little boy loved to come and play around it
everyday.
He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, took a nap
under the shadow...
He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
Time went by...the little boy had grown up,
And he no longer played around the tree every day.
ζΓOne day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked
sad.
"Come and play with me, the tree asked the boy.
"I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees any
more"
The boy replied.
"I want toys. I need money to buy them."
"Sorry, but I do not have money...
But you can pick all my apples and sell them.
So, you will have money.
" The boy was so excited.
He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left
happily.
The boy never came back after he picked the apples.
The tree was sad.
One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned
And the tree was excited "Come and play with me" the
tree said.
"I do not have time to play. I have to work for my
family.
We need a house for shelter.
Can you help me?
" Sorry,
But I do not have any house. But you can chop off my
branches
To build your house.
" So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left
happily.
The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never
came back since then.
The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day,
The man returned and the tree was delighted.
"Come and play with me!" the tree said.
"I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax
myself.
Can you give me a boat?"
Said the man.
"Use my trunk to build your boat.
You can sail far away and be happy.
" So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat.
He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.
Finally, the man returned after many years.
"Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you
anymore.
No more apples for you...
" The tree said.
"No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite
" The man replied.
"No more trunk for you to climb on"
"I am too old for that now" the man said.
"I really cannot give you anything...
The only thing left is my dying root,
The tree said with tears.
"I do not need much now, just a place to rest.
I am tired after all these years" the man replied.
"Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on
and rest,
Come, come sit down with me and rest.
" The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled
with tears...
This is you and the tree is your parent. !!!!!

![]()

Dear all the family members
jai mata ji,
happy new year.
Now you can know what your employer or interviewer is interested to
find out about yourself.
Naturally, he cannot ask you direct questions on such factors or
expect to get correct and truthful answers for them.
If any case, Actions speak better than words. Therefore, he will try
to get these details by making you talk about yourself, your
activities, achievements and dealing with others. Since you know his
mind and are aware of his requirements why not take the initiative
and present them yourself.
You read not have to leave it to him to wriggle and struggle with you
to extract the information. Instead, you can subtly and tactfully
convey it yourself in the course of the conversation. It is for you
then to take advantage of the possible openings in the conversation
and present your assets in the best possible manner. It means that
you should be ready to talk and touch on such favorable incidents of
your life and experience when the opportunity presents itself.
Do not keep on saving `yes' or `no' monotonously all the time when
questions are put to you. First understand the question fully and
determines what all or what exactly he wants to know.
When he asks about your educational qualifications, sports
activities, hobbies, domestic background, friendships and
associations travel experiences, job experiences, reading habits,
life's ambitions and so on your will have all the opportunities you
need.
Since you are going to blow your own trumpet, it has to be done in
discreet, subtle diplomatic and expert manner.
It should not be too loud, blaring or jarring the best thing
therefore, is to state the facts and refrain from drawing and
conclusions yourself.
Do not talk about the qualities or attributes you possess but state
your performances accurately and leave the task of drawing inferences
to the interviewer.
If you have consistently secured distinctions and positions in your
academic career, do mention them when you deal with that topic. If
that topic doesn't come up by itself, then find the appropriate
opening where it can be naturally introduced.
It is here your initiative should be brought to play its part.
Similarly, you should present your co curricular activities at the
appropriate time. The same rule should also be followed to highlight
all your other strong points.
At the same time you should remember to stay within bounds, to be
tactful and to proceed judiciously when taking the initiative.
Do not change topic abruptly.
Do not talk of irrelevant or totally uncorrected matters. Never rub
it in.
Don't show yourself to be over anxious.
In other words, do not over do.
First, be a good listener and gauge the interviewers mood. Encourage
him to talk if he is inclined to do so. When you play the role of a
listener, be interesting, lively, enthusiastic and appreciate.
All of us would like to have such audience when we talk.
Interview, after all, is nothing but face-to-face conversation. It is
conversation with a purpose. If you make the conversation interesting
and enjoyable your purpose is achieved. To make it interesting you
have to listen and talk as the occasion demands. You must listen with
interest and talk with purpose. In both cases you must exercise
initiative to say the right things at right time. Imaginative use of
initiative interview thus ensures you sure success.
thanx to all
shailesh p singh.
