Mount Abu first Frost for this Season

MOUNT ABU FREEZES 15 DEC 2018.

WELCOME TO A CHILLY ABU

Last, Night's temperature dropped below Zero giving Abu the first frost this season.

Children huddle in the morning's warm sun, their faces aglow with joy.

WELCOME TO A CHILLY ABU

Winter light dances like poetry upon frost-kissed leaves, shimmering in the first rays of the rising sun. The vibrant purple sunbird flits through the trees, drinking from droplets of frost that glisten as they melt. Children huddle in the morning's warm sun, their toes curled against the chill, their noses running but their faces aglow with joy.

Welcome to the Abode of the Gods

Welcome to the Abode of the Gods—Mount Abu. Here, the sun’s warmth is a gentle balm, and the bite of the frosty dawn invigorates your spirit. The eternal calm of the hills and valleys invites you to surrender to their peacefulness and let your soul be carried away. Mount Abu whispers of escape in its blissful stillness—an invitation to leave behind the monotony of everyday life and step into something otherworldly.

The trees that did not shed their mantle of green

froze to death.

As the afternoon sun descends and a cool breeze grows stronger, the clear skies create ideal circumstances for frost to form later tonight. So take a tip from an old hand: set your beer bottles on the lawn tonight, and by tomorrow, you’ll have chilled beer to enjoy under the winter sun.

Cheers to our Winter Season.

The temperature at 8:43 this morning

Mount Abu,blood donation a super Spring event 11 March 2018.

Mount Abu, blood donation  11 March 2018.

We hold World Blood Donation Day on 14 June every year, but here in Abu, any day is Blood Donation Day. The Abuites of this small hill station only have to know it's gonna be blood donation day. They turn up from all walks of life. Everyone, including locals, armed forces, and various associations like the Lions Club and Rotary Club, showed great enthusiasm and fervour. They all head to make every blood donation camp a memorable event.
Today they held the event as usual at the Global Hospital. The turnout was exceptional.
As the saying goes, a pint of booze will do an individual some good, but a pint of blood donated will do you fine! Feel better and fitter….

The signature of my Family Doctor Dr A K Sharma Appreciates his poem.

LET US MAKE A LIFELONG PACT

 Let us make a lifelong pact

With this angelic munificent act

 From our parents’ pious legacy

By true decree, not a fallacy

 Love dyed in sacred red

In ambrosia of one’s blood

 WBC with their soothing balm

Spreading peace and serene calm

 Platelets preventing bloody hemorrhage

Saving from many vicious outrages

 Various factors battle like saviors

Armed to the teeth like kindly  warriors

Every drop is of great value

To every life a tender rescue

 The dues to all one’s life’s credit

Blood the precious seraphic gift

 Truly priceless and truly great

Betters health the more you donate

 The only way to gift a life

Sans sacrificing one’s own life!

A request by DR. A K Sharma
PLEASE INTRODUCE AND PROMOTE

ARBUDANCHAL UTSAV MOUNT ABU

I reached the Hilltone conference hall in the nick of time; The Governor of Rajasthan His Eminence Mr. Sheelandra Kumar Singh, Professor Bhasker Mehta, Commissioner for Physical Disabilities, Colonel Rajesh Kaswan of the 1st Sikh Light Infantry Regiment at Mount Abu , His Highness Maharo Raguveer Singhji of Sirohi , the Heads of all major schools and prominent Abuites were present for the occasion of the promotion of the release of The book of songs (Arbudh Geet) written and composed by our very own Dr. A.K.Sharma; All Rounder and the essence of controversy, in our one horse town. The credit and arrangements for this occasion goes to the younger generation of Agarwals of the Hillock family, their efforts and spontaneous action made it possible for this prestigious and memorable get-together to produce an insight into the awareness of what is needed for the betterment of this semi- hill station of ours.
The presentation on this occasion was conducted by Dr. Sharma; his introduction short and sweet, followed by a rendition of a song from his book by the students of the blind school; whom he calls his children and to whom he has pledged his legacy.

The Governor‘s speech was also inspirational and he made it a point to thank the Merwanji family for their contributions and continuous untiring efforts toward the support of the blind school which their fore- fathers had initiated by donating one of their biggest and most prime property in Abu .
Poetry for Awareness is not about making poems like a poet, it is about using the process of making poetry to generate more self awarenesss. Our good Doctor uses his poetry to enable the person reading it to share their inner thoughts and feelings and to experience a personal transformation of well being. He’s trying to promote personal empowerment where people are actively involved and find a meaning for their actions.
The book was a huge success; the thousand copies that were printed were sold in the blink of an eye. Everyone- even students or charitable intuitions interests in buying this book for a worthy cause may contact the Blind Centre .All proceeds from the sale of these books will go to the blind centre. There will be a short delay as the second edition of the book is under print. “Actions speak louder than words”, Mr. Mukesh Modi Chairman of Mahadav bank has denoted Rs Five Lakhs to the blind school, 2.5 lakhs have been released with immediate effect for a recording studio to be set up at the Blind School Centre.

A rendition of the song आदमी को आदमी से प्यार करना होगा sung by students of the Blind School Abu.My apologies for the poor quality of video output, I recorded this in subdued lighting
