Anindita Institute of NursingInternational Charity Day is marked on 5th September every year. The Day of Charity was established with the objective of sensitising and mobilising general people, NGOs, and stakeholders all around the world to help others through volunteer and philanthropic activities.
The reason of behind choosing 5th September as the International Charity Day was to commemorate the death anniversary of the of Mother Teresa who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 "for work undertaken in the struggle to overcome poverty and distress, which also constitute a threat to peace." It is celebration of great work towards humanity.
Firstly, Hungarian Civil Society took initiative to celebrate 5th September as charity day with support of the Hungarian government and Parliament in the year of 2011, later the UN General Assembly, in the year of 2012, had declared this day as International Charity Day officially through resolution A/RES/67/105 to memorialise the death anniversary of Mother Teresa who worked tirelessly for the entire society to defeat poverty by helping distressed poor people all over the world. It was also in the recognition of the role of charity in alleviating humanitarian crises and human suffering within and among nations, as well as of the efforts of charitable organizations and individuals.
The UN encourages the awareness campaign, charity donations and driving education that aims at the seriousness of charity in the world. Charity helps in improving the lives of the people around the world in terms of protecting children, spreading literacy, fighting diseases.
In today’s busy, speedy and self-centric world, we have almost forgotten the proverb “Charity begins at home”. Let us hark back to that and work towards the basic motto of humanity; live and let live. Let us acknowledge that charity is vital, as it enables us to reach out to wider parts of society, assisting those who need our help the most and also take active part in letting others live. If we have not started yet, let us start today to contribute in the life of the underprivileged. Let’s start counting how much we adding to others life. Every donation can make a huge change or can save a life, no matter if it is small or huge.
জঙ্গলমহল - বাঁকুড়া, পুরুলিয়া, ঝাড়গ্রাম ও পশ্চিম মেদিনীপুরের বিস্তীর্ণ অঞ্চল - প্রাচীনকাল থেকেই এক অনন্য সংস্কৃতি, লোকবিশ্বাস ও প্রকৃতি -পূজার পীঠস্থান। এখানকার অজস্র পাহাড়, জঙ্গল, নদী আর লাল মাটির বুক জুড়ে গড়ে উঠেছে হাজারো বছরের আদিবাসী আচার-অনুষ্ঠান। তারই একটি গভীর অথচ আজ প্রায় বিস্মৃত প্রথা হলো পাহাড় পূজা। পাহাড় পূজা এক আচার, যা কোনও ধর্মগ্রন্থে লেখা নেই, তবু শতাব্দীর পর শতাব্দী ধরে এখানকার মানুষ মন প্রাণ ঢেলে পালন করে আসছে।
World Music Day, celebrated annually on June 21st, isn't just about listening to tunes, it's a magnificent opportunity to immerse ourselves in the soul-stirring depths of India's profound sonic heritage. This isn't just a day for melodies, it's a global stage to truly appreciate a legacy that has captivated hearts and minds for centuries. From the ancient, resonant echoes of Vedic chants that predate recorded history, to the intricate, emotive landscapes of classical ragas like Hindustani and Carnatic, India's musical journey is a testament to its rich cultural revolution. Imagine the centuries of devotion and discipline poured into perfecting each note, each nuanced phrase, designed not just to entertain but to evoke specific emotions and connect with the divine. The very fabric of Indian classical music has been woven by titans whose names resonate through time. Think of the sitar maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar, who brought Indian classical music to the global stage through his iconic collaborations with Western artists like George Harrison. Or the captivating voice of Bharat Ratna M.S. Subbulakshmi, whose devotion to Carnatic music touched millions. In Hindustani classical, the powerful and soulful renditions of Pandit Bhimsen Joshi (Khayal) and the unparalleled mastery of the shehnai by Ustad Bismillah Khan continue to inspire awe. And who can forget the rhythmic genius of tabla virtuoso Ustad Zakir Hussain, who has pushed the boundaries of percussion across genres. Beyond the classical and folk traditions, towering figures have shaped the modern musical landscape. Rabindranath Tagore, India's first Nobel laureate and a true polymath, made an unparalleled contribution through Rabindra Sangeet. He composed over 2,000 songs, blending elements of Hindustani classical, folk melodies, and Western influences, often setting them to his own poetry. Rabindranath Tagore's music is not merely an accompaniment to his words, it's an integral part of his philosophy, expressing a vast range of human emotions, spiritual insights, and love for nature and country. His compositions are a distinct and beloved genre, deeply ingrained in the cultural psyche of Bengal and beyond. But India's musical story isn't confined to grand concert halls. It thrives in the vibrant rhythms of its diverse folk music, echoing across sun-drenched fields, bustling village squares, and festive celebrations. Each region, each community, boasts its own unique musical dialect – from the spirited bhangra of Punjab to the soulful baul songs of Bengal, and the captivating Lavani of Maharashtra. These are the sounds of daily life, of stories passed down through generations, of shared joy and collective spirit. Legendary folk artists like Bhupen Hazarika from Assam, whose poignant songs spoke of humanity and social justice, or the mesmerizing voices of the Nooran Sisters in Sufi music, have ensured these traditions continue to flourish. India's sonic landscape is constantly evolving, embracing innovative fusions of contemporary genres. Modern Indian artists, championed by trailblazers like the Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman, are fearlessly blending traditional instruments and melodies with Western influences, creating sounds that are both rooted in heritage and refreshingly new. The golden voices of playback singers like Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar and Mohammed Rafi have defined generations of Bollywood music. In current scenario Kumar Sanu, Alka Yagnik, Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghosal, Arijit Singh and so many singers showcasing the versatility and emotional depth of Indian vocal artistry. On this World Music Day, let's not just passively listen, but actively recognize and appreciate the intricate melodies, complex rhythmic structures, and the undeniable spiritual depth embedded within Indian music. It's a reminder of its enduring influence, not just on India's own vibrant culture, but on the wider world, inspiring musicians and enchanting audiences across continents.
