What exactly do we mean by ‘ New Year’. It implies a new waves of enthusiasm whereby we get a chance to concrete our dreams . With the perennial flow of time we enter in the new year with the last year’s  failures and anxieties . But with the advent of new hopes through above mentioned enthusiasm we can translate these failures or negativities into success or positivities. All the ingredients of success exist in ourselves. I think basic ingredients of success reside in the form of interesting pictures in our minds. If we consciously paint this picture, success will come to us. If we fail to do so,we will face failure.And the most successful people are those with the most interesting pictures in their minds. The consciousness of this doing about which I mentioned,is built of two layers –the conscious,and  the subconscious,. We do need to tap the powers of the subconscious and thereby translate failure into success.The conscious layer,through which we think,feel and take our decisions is a very tiny part our consciousness. It may be equated with the tip of an iceberg  floating above water on the other hand ,subconscious layer is much vaster. It may be compared with the larger portion of an iceberg immersed in the water . But this larger part cannot think for itself,it can not decide what is right and what is wrong.If we believe that we can not achieve something ,the subconscious will take up our belief.But whatever we will believe in, our subconscious will create conditions, so that our beliefs are proved. Whatever, we picture for ourselves, the subconscious will prove that picture as true.   To achieve success we must believe in success, and paint a picture of ourselves succeeding. The conscience and subconscience layers must coordinate with each other to create success. Success  may  not be produced by only the conscience self. It is done with the help of the subconscience.We know, there are tremendous potentialities open to every one of us. But these potentialities have to be harnessed with the help of subconscousness. Positive thoughts induce this subconscious layer, negative thoughts weaken this. So we must resolve to cultivate this layer in coming new year to achieve our goal. I wish very successful year ahead to all of you-    Awadhesh Narain Pandey                           

India is a nation facing incredible challenges . we have seen there is not ample security and safety for the every section of our society especially girls and women anywhere in the country. Monstrous elements heap violence on girl children and  women. We are facing acute inequality on the one hand,we see such huge wealth and on the other, more than one-third of the peoplelive without a second meal everyday. Society is clearly bifurcated between haves and not haves. We have examples of the very affluent as well as the extremely poor.On the education front, millions of our children are out of reach of our education systems even at the primary level. This is directly related to the child labour problem. Today, we are facing many global problems, in which ecological issues are of utmost important. But at our domestic front we are still struggling for proper civic infrastructure including public transport system. We could not reach 4%agricultural growth which was fixed by our FYP. Agriculture is still associated with at least 65% people’s livelihood. At political front,there is huge communication gap between rulers and the ruled. Last year CAG tracked many scams like 2G,Coalgate etc. CAG,s calculations may be faulty but everyone accepts the happening of scams. Parliamentary proceedings is being polluted day by day. Conflict between two sacred pillars of democracy i.e. Supreme Court and parliament is being deepened people,s frustrations have been reflected in the movements of civil societies. Union-state relations are being tensiled day by day. Policing system owes colonial legacy. A functioning police system does not mean just a constabulary that keeps public spaces secure. Today , India,s policing and judicial apparatus primarily dispenses uncertainty and proliferates probabilities for injustice. Citizens with means and powers buy their way out of criminal charges, whether of rape,murder or corruption. Citizens without means and power are often framed or wrongly convicted, leaving society no safer as the guilty remain free.

Reliable methods of investigation, evidence and impartiality to adjudicate human rights and social imperatives.

As we know some pressure groups like civil society may force the political class to take some executive and legislative measures to save its own face, leading to some cosmetic changes. But legislation alone does not bring about changes in social and cultural outlooks and beliefs. This demands a radical change in our feudal, patriarchal and male-dominated society. Our political class does not have leaders with credentials to achieve these factors.

So, we must focus the” aam admi,s role” in all of this. In ‘aam admi” the role of youth section is of utmost relevant. First of all we must recollect M K Gandhi,s favourite quote:”Be the change you whish to see in the world.If we want to transform society, we have to begin with ourselves.

As youth is the building block of society. The significance of youth values in nation building cannot be ignored. So, as we are going to celebrate 150^th birth anniversary of youth icon Swami Vivekanand. His birthday(Jan12) is celebrated as National Youth Day.

Demographically today’s India is at its youngest best and has the courage to meet any challenges.With the collective consciousness.Swami Vivekanand always argued for the need for nationwide renovation with the ideals of ‘’tyaga” or sacrifice and “seva”, selfless service. It is the most imperative aspects of shaping of faith of Young India.

The most important qualification that swamy is looked for in youngsters was to cultivate and murture the ability to ‘feel’. His philosophy for the Youths contain influential Ps: Purity, Patience and Perseverance. These Ps are the great traits that the youth of today are needy in .Through these, we would be part of positive change that will have impact on entire society.
