Mantra Cafe- dream of a man heading towards his destiny
A new cafe on the niche, situated on the lush green and peaceful way to Nainital from
the Kathgodam. You drive 5 km from Kathgodam and you reach Mantra café, the café
is offering absolutely stunning lush green, misty and foggy vally view. The perfect spot to sip a hot cup of
coffee, to relax, to enjoy your book you carry on travel or enjoy a meal. Luckily
I visited Mantra Café, and the dishes were awesome.
But if I really say, It’s not only a cafeteria but a the dream of a man belongs to our Lucknow, Mr. Alok.
But if I really say, It’s not only a cafeteria but a the dream of a man belongs to our Lucknow, Mr. Alok.
He dreamed, he dared, he had shown courage and listened the calling of
his inner soul and “Mantra Cafe” came in to existence.
Whenever you go to Nainital, meet the Man in the process of
writing his destiny. And you will feel that dreams are really to be followed
and destiny waits for this moment.

Humanity and religion
Human of this age has a paradigm
shift when it comes to the religion. They are not very much aggressive and the approach
has become simpler when it comes to the question of religion.
There are people they may say
they believe in religion and can give their reasons and logics but there may be
people who may say that they are really happy without any religion.
Some of them may reply that they
are humanitarians or “it’s better to be a human rather than following a
religion”. Question comes to the mind that really is there any difference in
Humanity and religion?
Let’s understand it through a
quadrant:
In this quadrant I have tried to
depict the concept with different prospective.
The first in quadrant talks about
the people who are religious and humanitarian,
What is religion?
Religion is a concept where the
presence of GOD or first intellectual cause is necessary who is responsible for
the existence of everything and nothing at all, people are fascinated with the
existence of GOD or first intellectual cause they practice rituals which becomes
custom after certain point of time and is consistently followed by their heirs.
There are rules, teachings, usages, customs, rituals and myths which become the
sacred literature for the followers and they follow it like the words of GOD. Religion
teaches about humanity, almost all the religion exists for the time being
teaches the concept of humanity and urges to the followers to abide by the
concept.
But what is humanity itself?
Humanity is a very different term
which gives us the reason to be here, the service of the human being is the ultimate
teachings of every religion. So we can say that this term is pervasive ant the
underlying objective is beyond any religion.
If we look at the quadrant above
we will find both concepts in the relative terms.
A person can be religious and humanitarian
at the same time but another one cannot be so he may be religious but may not
be a humanitarian, it all depends upon his upbringing and perception to the
life. On the other hand one may not be non- religious but he may be humanitarian
and taking the last segment of the Quadrant non-religious and non- humaniretion.
Whichever segment of this quadrant one
follows it all depends on his upbringing, experiences, peer pressure, environment
in which he lives and his own experiences in life and lastly his intellect.
So to my mind both terms are very
much different but complementary to each other.
