When we entered in to the Terminal 1 we approached an enquiry counter and ask them to help us to get the Washington DC gate, where we have to transmit to an another flight. They guided to the other side of that magnificent wing, where we had a queue, before the counter. The officer asked me to put the hand luggage in to a plastic tray and the luggages are scanned.

The tray was placed on the conveyer belt. We had received the tray on the other side of the scanning machine, only after the process was completed. Then, we were taken to the first floor by the staff. We travelled in the tube train to the first floor, where , we took the Washington flight.

The flight had been scheduled at 13 h to departure. We have waited for four hours to start. We had nice coffee in $8 instead of 2€. After that we laid on the lobby chairs to take rest.

Germany, the country which had great losses in the Second World War as under the wrong governance of Hitler, a dictator, now has become really advanced in today’s European world where the changes are more frequent with growing technology, global changes etc. This gave great surprise to me!

We waited 5 hours in the Frankfurt airport lobby for the connecting flight to Washington DC. Meantime, I relaxed in the chair with the memories of the Berlin wall, which fell in the year 1989, has not only gestured in Germany history, but this should be in the world history too.

The following lines, where I have scratched in the book namely ‘’The fall of the Berlin wall’’ is necessary to quote at this time. ‘’ …On the 9th of November, 1989, the Border separating Western from Eastern Germany was effectively opened. The following days were most unusual for the whole of Germany - considering the usual German ways, one could almost speak of anarchy: Shops stayed open as long as they wanted (the usual, mandatory closing time was 6:30pm in 1989), a GDR passport served as a free ticket for public transport, and in general there were more exceptions than rules in those days.

Of course, Berlin was in the focal point of these changes. The Fall of the Berlin Wall, which will always be used as a symbol for the end of the Cold War, made the "West" available in the middle of the "East", resulting in widespread chaos…’’

I am in almost recollecting anarchy of an olden history of Germany, where suffered a lot in the WWII, under the dictatorship of the Führer Adolf Hitler! As mentioned in my previous session, the country had great losses in the Second World War, under the wrong governance of the dictator Hitler, now, really advanced in today’s European world where the changes are more frequent with growing technology, global changes etc. This gave great surprise to me!

One, who analyzed the growth of this country, after the WW II, certainly puzzles that how this country alone made an economy miracle?

Unfortunately, for the past few years this country worried about its melting economy. This was understood that Germany economics were scrambled due to the over debts, where borrowed from the Asian countries, like China and so on. For, the past few years this Euro-Zone nation could not able to submit the comfortable budgets. Leading newspapers of the US has also quoted this problem. Some of them flashes ‘’Is German continue the Euro-Zone’’? However, the German states-men were confident that they of would have sustainable growth in the economy.

U.S. Roads:
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]


The federal government maintained the high way roads. The village and town roads are named as the exit roads, probably maintained by the counties. All the exit roads are linked with the main federal high way roads. The exit roads are given by separate numbers and the arrow marks. These, exits are connected the towns. Whenever the high way travelers want to take rest they can use the exit roads. Exit roads get them to the nearby towns. The, roads are alienated by the white and yellow dual lines. The users should not cross the yellow line. Whenever, needs arise to deviate, they should use the white lines.
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]


All roads are seemed much cleaned and well maintained. The signal lights are placed in the important junctions. The speed limits are cautioned by the side way boards. The drivers adopted the traffic rules in strictly. When happened to see the stop signal boards, the vehicular immediately slow down their speed whether it could be traffic or not.

After some time he hesitated the palatial life. He lost his ataraxia. He thinks about the sorrows of human beings, where in the Universal life. Here he analyzed vigorously about sorrows in the Universal life, here after what will be the result of these soreness. He wants to eradicate this soreness. Not only this, also has adopted as a motto in his life to eradicate these elements. He stripped the luxurious life and adopted renunciation to find the truth. After the long struggle, whereas the age of 36, he fined the perception while in the meditation under the Banyan tree and attained the nirvana.

The term Buddha means "Awakened" or those who finds the circle of light. Sutha Pithagam the text in Pali language has recited the policies of the Bhudism. The first aim of Bhudism is to depurate from the soreness and mental agony. The egotism is the main reason for the sorrow. Only abolishing the bait should be gives us the great bliss and mental relief. Avoid evilness and do well. This deed will abolish the lures.

Four Highly Truths:

1. Soreness: Life is adversity one. Life is covered with poverty, ill, hoar and demise. The life is not easily quit away and this has embraced soreness. These evils follow throughout the life.

2. Origin of the sorrow: Evanescent pleasure is the reason to the soreness. The reason for the sorrow is leading the life with selfishness for making the Joyce only to them.

3. Eradicate the bait: Unless eradicates the baits, the sorrow should not.

4. (Atta Seelam) The Eight ways: This is the way to abolish the sorrow. If we adopted these ways we can easily eradicate the sorrow.

Without, showing an interest in various life styles, eradicate all the baits and also eradicate the root causes for making these baits, in the life, has the only remedy, to abolish these sorrows, as stated in the Bhuta’s homily.

Midway: This way makes Insight, prudence, lore, peace, nirvana. There are eight policies in this way. This is called as Atta Seelam or Eight Routes.

Atta Seelam or Eight Routes:

1. Good faith: Having, the faith on the four ways.

2. Well cognitive: Decided to dispense the household life, suppression the angry and don’t the badness to others.

3. Fair tongues: Don’t speak useless, harsh and deceitful words.

His advices are enlightening the truth with the new philosophy and eradicate all the faiths about the God, spirit and invariable authenticity as ruled in the Hinduism at then. It is not an exaggeration that He only proclaimed the different ideologies at first about the Universe, life and rumination.

The Baltimore Murugan temple, looks like a palace, built on the massive steps and enlightens its magnificent views.
There was a hall connected with the Lord Murugan's sanctum which could be getting after several steps from the ground floor.
The Lord Murugan, has been a niche in the standing posture, with the Valli- Deivanai and performed his blessings to their devotees.

Like the South Palzhani hill, this temple also having massive steps with elevated views. Perhaps, this has been hard to reach the main sanctum.
Even, the main deity is Lord Murugan, there were Vaishnavite Gods and Goddess also niche by the side of the main deities in the separate sanctums.
Because of this practice, the trust board has intruded to appoint both Saivites and Vaishnavites sages without any discriminate to perform the ritual works.

Though the Lord Murugan has been the main deity, the Vaishnavite God, Goddess also has enshrined, in the temple.
So, we can able to see the both of Vaishnavite and Saiviate sages in to the temple for performing pujas as I, already said.

The man seated next to me was in his lap top seriously with the glimpsing of the exit frequently. The man seated next to me was in his lap top seriously with the glimpsing of the exit frequently.

    [FONT=&quot]The Gifford Pinchot state park, situated in the York County is one of the biggest state parks in Pennsylvania.
    The park acts as a bank for the mighty Susquehanna River of Pennsylvania.
    We reached the park after 45 minutes’ drive from home.
    The up hills and downs hills, sceneries with a chill weather reminded an ambience of a hill station.
    We arrived at 10 am in a cold morning for a pleasant view of the park.
    We had parked our Odyssey van in the lot and searched for a picnic table.
    After securing a table, we unloaded the picnic belongings including the disposal grill oven where which my son bought online.
    We enjoyed the pleasant day with a delicious grill prepared in the park.[/FONT]
