Just take deep breath and Imagine life as a classroom, Every time we regard our past, whether good or bad, if our past is bad we recall them again and again and cry; by this, we disrespect our teacher. Teacher means we learn from our past. If such incident didn't happen in past, today we are not what we have. By learning from past, we become what we have. If our past was good, we recall and cry and wish, "Please, past moments come back," but they never come back, and we feel bad and become sad. We need to not recall past because they never come back and we can't change the past. If we recall past, we have to respect past as a teacher. As we respect our teacher, we need to respect past as teacher taught many things; same past helps us to learn.life has a simple formula: look back and thank God, look ahead and trust God, and always respect Past and enjoy life and become a living, working monk . In conclusion life has a simple formula look back and thank God look ahead a...

GHARATS [ Local trade Mills] ROTATING IN J&K

Traditional water mills (Gharats)-A source of rural livelihood in mountainous region of Jammu and Kashmir


 The present exploratory study was conducted in Shivalik hills of Jammu region of J&K at an altitude of 4500-5000 ft height to document the traditional knowledge of the local people regarding traditional water mills locally called as "Gharats" used for grinding of different cereals and grains especially maize for their household consumption by using energy of flowing water. Among different cereal crops maize is predominately grown and is the staple food for the peasants of the area. Along with farming, these traditional water mills act as source of livelihood for the people of hilly areas. Water flowing in different perennial springs of these hills is utilized by the local people for operating their traditional water mills for grinding of maize & wheat. Elderly people of the village construct it by using locally available material. Wood of Quercus leucotrichophora locally known as "Banj"and Pinus roxburghii locally known as "Chir", clay and stones are predominately used for construction of gharats. Locally available stone called "kupar" is used for making grinders locally known as "pan" and "talli". Operators of gharat locally called as "Gharati" reported that they earn to the tune of`48000of`of`48000 to 52000/-annually from these gharats as charges for grinding maize and wheat grains and act as source of livelihood for farm households in addition to farming. Local inhabitants reported that these traditional water mills are cost effective source of grinding/milling of different grains, requires less maintenance and moreover are eco-friendly. Respondents also reported that flour obtained after grinding from these traditional water mills possesses longer keeping quality and more nutritious as compared to electric Attachaki. Erratic rainfall and snowfall due to climate change results in decreasing the water flow in perennial nallas which affects the continuous functioning of these traditional watermills.

  I find gharat very scientifically driven mechanism where water with high speed is used to rotate it and a perfect system for seed putting inside the roller stone.A master form or design the roller made of stone. 

 Peoples of villages generally told that, the extraxt we get from gharat is well as no mixing of other things or medicines and good for health. They tight belts for a long journey sometimes exceeding 20km for grinding alonwith food. Sometimes, a long queue of villagers can be seen with pouch of leather(sheep extract) filled with grains.
