Everyone constantly face, challenges – at home with our spouse, children and other family members, at work with our peers and bosses. Sometimes life itself becomes a challenge because it throws up so many relationship based and situational challenges.

But the biggest challenge of them all is one’s mind. Often, it is possible to control everything else but one’s mind. being master of the world. The Bhagwad Gita says, ‘Our mind is our best friend and our worst enemy. If we know how to manage our mind, we can manage our time, our relationships, our life, everything.

This is where spirituality comes in. It is the path to a mentally decluttered, value-based life. Spirituality teaches us to control our thoughts, emotions and desires. It is actually the science of managing one’s mind.

When I look back, I find that the great and glorious hours of my life were those when I gave a helping hand to others without expecting anything in return and not when I struggled and succeeded to gain my own ends. And I can well imagine and appreciate that in this world those alone live who live for others. I have no regrets for the past. Life has been kind to me. My only regret is that I received more from life than I gave.

In the following questions, you have six brief passages with 5 questions following each passage, Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

A morning commute seems like a good time to embark on an ambitious train of thought. At least, that was the idea from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, which put a professor on a train on Wednesday to lecture commuters. Passengers on the 9 am train from the suburban community of Modin to Tel Avie put away their morning tabloids and iPods to listen to a talk from professor Hanoch Gutfreund on ‘Einstein’s love letters’. The lecture was the first of the University’s Scientists on the Rails’ programmer – an attempt to broaden the appeal of higher education and bring academia to the people.

Unsure how the move would be received, the train talks have been re-scheduled for just after morning rush hour and only in one carriage on the train to avoid antagonizing people. As the train chugged through tunnels and past the airport, one woman interrupted the professor with a question.

“Will you finish your talk before we reach the station?” She wanted to know.

“Madam, by the time you reach your station, you’ll have your BA”. came the reply from the professor.

Why did the Hebrew University embark on the programme of giving lectures on the train?

  • People have motive to go to college

  • The University was testing out an innovative idea

  • The Railways wanted to reduce the stress of commuters

  • The Railways wanted to reduce the stress of commuters
