Social networking sites have become part of our life.



We just go to 200 years back to recall what did we use, or what our kings used to use to receive or send any news. Before coming to that we should know how are we addicted to social networking sites?
Addiction is wrong with something not with everything.  As soon as we hear the word call addiction we think something went wrong. because we use addiction for negative things but sometimes addicting also gives us good results, like how we addicting with social networking sites. At the same time addicting to social networking sites also gives us negative results as well. 

 

So, what do we have to do, for everything there is a limit?  Even if we have too much food, that’s going to be problem for us isn’t it. So if you use social networking sites properly that gives Nemours knowledge. It also gives you up to date news which is updated by you or somebody, that news may useful, that may change your life. Like how an idea can change your life likewise how social networking a site also can change our life.    


Since time immemorial the Kings have maintained channels of Communications for their exclusive use, for receiving and sending the news of political and economic importance.   


Kings more often use pigeons as well, to receive or send any news.  Whereas common man didn’t have anything to communicate, or to pass any passage, thereafter common man started using Postcards to communicate. The first post card was released in 1859. At the same time it used to take very long time to receive any message from receiver. After postcards Telephones entered in to the communication market.
 



 On March 10th 1876 on words telephones were used to know each other or to pass any messages. On July 31, 1995 the smart mobile phones were available in market, the first mobile call phone call was made by West Bengal Chief Minister Joyti Basu. Since 1995 till date mobile phones has been bringing up a massive change in the field of communication.
There are over two hundred social network websites available for users to register and socialize on. The main ones are from the 2 biggest players: Face book and Twitter, both of which dominate the majority of the market with Face book, being a home to over 900 million registered users, and twitter the one line website offering a real time message system for celebs, businesses and general users, giving the feature of being able to follow, tweet, direct message and re-tweet each other's one line posts and links. 
 



With mobile technology ever evolving, social networking has become so popular with downloadable applications for each platform, even to social management sites like Hoot suite and Tweet deck, both available as desktop and mobile apps, allowing you to control a multitude of avenues in one place. This makes a user available 24 hours a day to their friends and family whatever their location in the world.
 


We have travelled a lot, in communication filed, from Pigeons to Social networking sites. In future some other thing may come who knows what’s going to happen when any way whatever is coming we are accepting them and using them according to our convenience. Along with technology we have to get update otherwise we are far behind to technology.

Is there an ascetic in all of us!




From morning to evening all are busy with their regular activities like going to offices, businesses and other routine works as well. In a year there are 365 days that classified in to 12 months. In each month there are four or five Sundays in a week. People used to have Sunday as holiday, whereas this corporate culture has given good facility called weekends which gives two holidays in a week, even though there are five working days in a week. Due to work pressure people get exhausted by end of the week I mean the Friday.
To get rid of that pressure they search for some other options over the weekends. People indulge in different kind of activities like sex, cinema, shopping, sports, charity and Spirituality etc… the enjoyment will be varying person to person, but at one point of time most of the people fall in Ascetic. That makes them to speak something about religiously and makes them to visit different kind of religious places as well.
Once they visit such kind of places, all of a sudden they speak something differently like what is this life, where are we going, why are we working, for whom are we working, Is this life necessary for us, why are we earning this much of money like that they behave with that Kind of tendency they change their track, not majority of people.
Whoever changed their track they become like monks or insane. They also difference ate the life like material life and spiritual life, whoever busy with their day to day life they all called as Materialistic people, whoever spend their time in spirituality they all called as monks.
Here one classic example “ISKCON” which was initiated by Srila Prabhupada there are so many knowledge people have changed their way of life due to one slogan “nothing is permanent in the world” they believe very strongly that God is Ultimate nothing is permanent in this world. Why these people have become like this that ascetic has made them to become like that.
Different religious people have different kind o faiths. Where as in Islam Christianity religious person also scarifies their lives because of Ascetic, they will be busy with preaching and some other kind of religious activities.
