One day a young boy found a bird lying on the ground, squawking for help. The boy felt compassion for the bird, petted the bird gently and wanted to help it, but didn’t know how. So he took the bird in his hands, carried it carefully home and showed it to his parents. They washed the bird and found it a little wounded. It would need time and care to recover. As the bird had become dear to his heart, the boy immediately offered to care for the bird.

Real meditation is Atma Chintan, concentration on the ãtmã...
Many people ask what they should think about during meditation and what they should concentrate on. Initially one concentrates on the breath, on the body or on the relaxed state of the muscles. Later one can visualise the full moon, sunrise or sunset. But real meditation is Atma Chintan, concentration on the ãtmã. At this stage our concentration moves beyond concern about the physical body and is no longer occupied with thoughts about the meditation posture.

Do you get enough iron in your diet? Most vegetarians have healthy iron levels if they have a balanced diet with plenty of legumes, whole grains and vegetables. Iron levels in the body depend not only on how much iron is consumed in the diet, but also on the strength of the digestion.  When digestion is weak, iron is one of the first nutrients that is poorly absorbed. Iron absorption is increased when iron rich foods are eaten with vitamin C rich foods such as vegetables. Some foods such as broccoli and silver beet are high in both Iron and vitamin C.

Symptoms of iron deficiency are anaemia, excessive menstrual blood loss, learning disabilities, headaches, dizziness, weight loss, poor immunity, and low energy levels. However there are many other causes for these symptoms.
