What is happiness in our life?

What if people change the gesture from How are you? to Are you Happy? Things will change, right? Because no one will ever be able to answer a “Yes” for this question. Look everyone has a  different perspective for describing what happiness is for real.

  CONSUMER DAY - MONKMART   The day that highlights the rights and power of a consumer and customer, is Consumer Day . The day was created to raise consumer awareness. Every year on March 15th, the consumer movement observes World Consumer Rights Day to raise global awareness about consumer rights and needs.

He realized the importance of cleanliness and made it to be reflected in his teachings. We have an old saying in Tamil which goes like, “ சுத்தம் சோறு போடும் ” . which translates to cleanliness never fails to feed. This is the level of importance we had for cleanliness, from the olden days. We celebrate the cleanliness year after year, with preaching and pledges taken and to be forgotten in the instant that it is taken.  This indicates the existing distinction between the practice and preaching that we as a people follow and leave for future generations.  Often, we could find that our house is being properl
