WORLD HEALTH 

🌍 World Mental Health Day: A Time to Prioritise the Mind 💚

Every year on October 10th, the world comes together to observe World Mental Health Day — a global initiative aimed at raising awareness, promoting understanding, and breaking the stigma surrounding mental health. This day serves as a powerful reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health, and that everyone deserves support, care, and compassion.

In today’s fast-paced world, many people silently battle stress, anxiety, and depression, often feeling isolated or misunderstood. World Mental Health Day encourages open conversations — in families, schools, workplaces, and communities — to normalise the topic of mental well-being. It’s an opportunity to remind ourselves and others that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

This year’s theme, “Mental health is a universal human right,” highlights the urgent need for accessible mental health services for all. No one should be left behind due to stigma, lack of resources, or discrimination. From small acts of kindness to community-driven initiatives, every effort helps build a society where people feel safe to speak, heal, and grow.

So, take a moment today to check in — with yourself, with a loved one, or a colleague. Listen without judgment, show empathy, and remember that mental wellness begins with understanding and connection.

KARTIK 

🕉️ Kartik Month: A Time for Devotion, Purity, and Spiritual Growth 🌺

The sacred month of Kartik, also known as Damodar Maas, is one of the holiest periods in the Hindu calendar. Falling between October and November, it is a time dedicated to deep devotion, prayer, fasting, and acts of charity. Kartik Month holds immense spiritual significance, believed to be especially dear to Lord Vishnu and Lord Krishna.

During this auspicious time, devotees engage in various rituals such as lighting diyas every evening, bathing in holy rivers, and observing fasts to purify the mind and body. The light of each diya is said to dispel darkness and ignorance, symbolising the triumph of spiritual wisdom over worldly distractions.

Temples and homes alike glow with divine energy throughout the month. Devotees recite the Damodar Ashtakam, offer tulsi leaves to Lord Vishnu, and perform Kartik Deep Daan — the offering of light — as an expression of gratitude and faith. Many also take part in charitable acts, feeding the poor and helping those in need, as good deeds performed in this month are said to bring immense spiritual merit.

Kartik Month is also marked by significant festivals such as Ekadashi, Tulsi Vivah, and Kartik Purnima, each carrying its own powerful blessings. It’s a period for reflection, letting go of negativity, and strengthening one’s connection with the divine.

As the soft glow of lamps fills the night sky, Kartik reminds us that inner peace comes from devotion, humility, and compassion — lighting not just our surroundings, but our souls.

💬 “When the heart is full of devotion, even the smallest flame can illuminate the darkest path.”
