Motivation lies within, not outside, says Jaya Kishori
Nagpur: True motivation does not come from outside, but from within — and it's deeply rooted in spirituality, said renowned motivational speaker and spiritual guide Jaya Kishori while captivating a packed audience in Nagpur on Monday evening.
She delivered the GH Raisoni memorial talk titled, 'You Are Enough: Confidence, Character & the Quiet Revolution Within', organised by Raisoni Foundation under the banner of the Orange City Literature Festival.
Held at Suresh Bhat Auditorium, the event drew more than 1,000 attendees who hung on to every word as Kishori spoke with her trademark warmth and humility about self worth, inner strength, and the importance of embracing one's uniqueness.
"Spirituality and religiousness are not separate but intertwined," she explained, urging the audience not to fear god, but to see the divine as a loving force who thinks highly of each individual. She cautioned people against comparing themselves with others, emphasising that everyone's journey is unique. Addressing modern challenges, she described overthinking as a disease and underscored the need for balance not only in spiritual matters but also in financial life.

Devshayani Ekadashi 2025 in July: Date, significance, fasting rules, rituals & key details you should know
Devshayani Ekadashi 2025 will be observed on Sunday, July 6. Falling on the Ekadashi tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Ashadha, this sacred day signals the beginning of Chaturmas, a four-month-long period of heightened spiritual practice in the Hindu calendar. It is believed that on this day, Lord Vishnu enters a deep cosmic slumber, awakening only on Prabodhini Ekadashi in the month of Kartik. Devshayani Ekadashi 2025: Date and Timings Event Date & Time Devshayani Ekadashi Sunday, July 6, 2025 Parana Time 05:31 AM to 08:17 AM on July 7 Dwadashi Ends 11:10 PM on July 7 Ekadashi Tithi Begins 06:58 PM on July 5 Ekadashi Tithi Ends 09:14 PM on July 6 What is Devshayani Ekadashi? Also known as Hari Shayani Ekadashi , Ashadi Ekadashi, or Padma Ekadashi, this day is devoted to Lord Vishnu, the sustainer in the Hindu trinity. It follows the celebrated Jagannath Rath Yatra and typically occurs in June or July. Devotees observe fasts and offer prayers seeking divine protection, peace, and blessings for the months ahead. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Spiritual Significance of Devshayani Ekadashi Devshayani Ekadashi marks the start of Lord Vishnu's cosmic rest as he reclines on Sheshnag in the Kshira Sagar (Ocean of Milk). During this time, major life events like weddings, property purchases, or new ventures are considered inauspicious. Instead, it's a period for introspection, devotion, and spiritual discipline. Fasting and Parana Guidelines Parana (breaking the fast) must be done only after the Hari Vasara, the first quarter of the Dwadashi Tithi. The ideal time to break the fast is during Pratahkal (early morning). Avoid breaking it in the Madhyahna (midday) period. Live Events Who Should Observe Devshayani Ekadashi? Householders (Smarthas) typically fast on the first Ekadashi. The second Ekadashi (Vaishnava) is observed by ascetics, widows, and those pursuing moksha (liberation). Devout followers often fast on both days to deepen their devotion to Lord Vishnu. Devshayani Ekadashi is not just a ritualistic observance—it is a time for inner cleansing, reflection, and setting spiritual intentions. As Lord Vishnu rests, devotees are called to awaken their own consciousness through discipline, prayer, and compassion.

38 hours after AI 171 crash, another Air India aircraft plunged 900 feet after takeoff; DGCA probe underway
In a second serious safety scare within 38 hours of the June 12 crash of Air India flight AI 171 in Ahmedabad, a Delhi-Vienna Boeing 777 aircraft operating as AI 187 experienced multiple critical inflight warnings shortly after takeoff. The incident occurred at 2:56 am on June 14, as the plane flew through severe thunderstorm conditions over the national capital, according to a report by ToI. The wide-body aircraft, registered VT-ALJ, received a stall warning, along with two 'don't sink' cautions from the Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS), alerting the crew to an abnormal loss in altitude. Officials aware of the matter confirmed that the aircraft dropped approximately 900 feet during initial climb. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Xu hướng nhà container: Giải pháp nhà ở hiện đại và bền vững Visionary Echo Tìm Ngay Though the flight ultimately landed safely in Vienna after 9 hours and 8 minutes, the near-disaster has triggered a probe by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). Both pilots have been taken off flying duty, and the airline's head of safety has been summoned for questioning. 'Stick shaker' alert triggered urgent pilot response According to officials, the crew received a stick shaker alert — a severe warning that violently shakes the flight controls and warns of an impending aerodynamic stall. This system is designed to immediately draw the pilots' attention and demand corrective action. Live Events 'The aircraft was involved in an inflight occurrence of stick shaker and GPWS caution. Soon after takeoff, stick shaker warning and GPWS don't sink caution appeared. Stall warning came once and GPWS caution came twice. There was an altitude loss of around 900 feet during climb. Subsequently, the crew recovered the aircraft and continued the flight to Vienna,' officials familiar with the incident told ANI. The flight data, reviewed after the incident, revealed that the onboard systems issued multiple alerts — including those not fully reflected in the initial pilot report. The original flight report is said to have only mentioned "stick shaker due turbulence after takeoff," while omitting the ground proximity and stall warnings. It was only after flight data recorder (FDR) analysis that the full extent of the occurrence was discovered. DGCA takes stern view as scrutiny intensifies post-crash The incident came just days after the AI 171 tragedy, which left several people dead and raised urgent questions about Air India's operational safety. In response, the DGCA had launched enhanced oversight of the airline's fleet and safety protocols. An Air India spokesperson said: 'Upon receipt of the pilot's report, the matter was disclosed to DGCA in accordance with regulations. Subsequently, upon receipt of data from the aircraft's recorders, further investigation was initiated. The pilots have been off-rostered pending the outcome of the investigation.' As part of the fallout from the June 14 occurrence, both pilots were immediately off-rostered, and Air India's head of safety was summoned by the regulator. On June 17, the DGCA had formally expressed concern about 'recent maintenance-related issues' and instructed the airline to enhance coordination across departments — engineering, operations, and ground handling — while reinforcing its focus on safety. Industry insiders say the perception of safety at Air India has changed dramatically. 'Old Air India (PSU time) did not have comfortable planes running on time but safety was never an issue. Now planes, at least the narrow body fleet, are better but passengers are apprehensive about safety after the terrible AI 171 crash. The new management and the new owner need to win back passenger and employee trust at the earliest by doing all it takes,' said one airline official. The Vienna-bound aircraft continued onward to Toronto with a fresh crew after its stop in Europe. An investigation into the incident is underway.
