The way soil is important for the plant growth. The people and the environment around you is equally important. Surround yourself with people who are loyal and genuine with you. You will glow and shine differently.
Chose people who chose you for “you being good human” , care for your growth and well being rather than people who chose you to satisfy their needs and greed.

In 324 BCE, after Alexander (the) Great's death, a remarkable coin known as the Porus Medallion was minted, celebrating his encounter with the Indian king Porus during the Battle of the Hydaspes.
This silver decadrachm features Alexander on horseback wielding a sarissa, charging at Porus, who is depicted atop an elephant.
Decadrachm is umbrella term for a variety of Greek or Greek lineage coins.
Interestingly, this battle never unfolded as portrayed on coin; Alexander's forces systematically outmaneuvered Porus's troops using archers before confronting the elephants.
On the reverse side of the coin, Alexander holds a thunderbolt, symbolizing his divine lineage as the son of Zeus, a belief held by many in his army.
Coin was Discovered in Afghanistan in 1926 and minted in Babylon, these coins reflect Alexander's self-image and propaganda.
They serve as a fascinating glimpse into his mindset and the historical context of his campaigns in India, despite being minted posthumously.

[Environment] pseudo-melanistic tigers, inbreeding, relocation
- Pseudo: false; melanistic: dark coloured. Their skin/pelt looks almost the inverse of a normal tiger. More black and less orange.
- Odisha → Similipal Tiger Reserve → 13/27 tigers are pseudo-melanistic.
- No other wild habitat in the world has pseudo-melanistic tigers.
- The Similipal tiger population is cut off from the other populations by a great distance and has been isolated for an extended period of time.
- Result? ‘inbreeding’ → gene defect/mutation → pseudo-melanistic skin/pelt.
- Solution? Odisha government sending away tiger from Simlipal to Maharashtra’s Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve.

⚡️Question from CAPF 2024
⚡️Why in the news: A tigress from the Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve, Maharashtra, was sent 800 km away to the Similipal Tiger Reserve on Sunday (October 28, 2024) so as to diversify the genetic pool of the tiger population in Odisha. She is part of a plan by the Odisha government to tackle inbreeding in the tiger population that has resulted in increasing numbers of the once elusive black tigers or pseudo-melanistic tigers.

👉 Swami Vivekanand:- Why are we then constantly unhappy?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:-Why do good people always suffer?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer.With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.

Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons later.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- What surprises you about people?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me?"
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- How can I get the best out of life?
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
👉 Swami Vivekanand:- One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
Ramkrishna Paramahansa:- There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live .
