Greetings

The editorial board stands overjoyed by sending a
token of appreciation and accolade to all the esteemed
authorities who are the extensions of the literary
club. You have helped the students to grow not only
in their professions but also in their personalities by
giving them time to follow their passion for literature.
We have morphed our children to be better than the
rest of all, brimming with confidence, courage and
leadership skills, all with your help. Had you not given
permissions to go and showcase them for things-the
literary club prepares them, all the talent and hard work
wouldn’t have mattered. It makes us honorable to have
you on board for our different editions. The previous
times of the magazine launch were glorious because
of your presence and we hope that you would continue
that way. Thank you for becoming preeminent role
models. Having your backbone makes the literary
club stronger, better, and wiser. Thank you to all the
Principals, Head of Departments, and teachers who
are always here for us, working for our edification.

Contessa’s Corner

Mirror to feminism in India

India is a land of rich culture and prestigious heritage and undoubtedly India has
a history of possessing a ‘male dominated’ and ‘male chauvinist’ society since
the ancient era, from Mahabharata and Ramayana to representation of woman in
Parliament; from Nirbhaya rape case to molestation of women at their workplaces,
the prevailing conditions are itself prima facie evidence that woman are the victim
of discrimination and harassment just because their gender is feminine. But then
the noble Indian society says that we have empowered woman by giving them the
golden instrument of feminism. YES! Feminism has given females the right and
freedom to travel alone even at the midnight, but where is the protection needed to
safeguard their life and dignity? Feminism has given them the opportunity to work
as equal to men, but where is the equality of status and respect? In reality feminism
has granted the permission to the female class of Indian society to fight the battle
but without the sword. This clearly proves that feminism for Indian woman is just
a superficial theory. The National Family Health Survey Report says that more than
31% married woman in India are victims of sexual abuse but still marital rape has
not been legalised here.The 2016 report of National Crime Records Bureau states
that in 94.6% rape cases, the perpetrators were known to the victim, creating a huge
question mark on woman’s safety. Thus, all total, when a prismatic mirror is shown
to feminism in India it produces a devastated position of women in Indian society.

“If you educate a man;
you educate a man.
But if you educate a woman;
you educate a generation.”
…Brigham Young.
To celebrate the spirit of knowledge, embodied in beautiful minds, MAHARISHI
MARKANDESHWAR (DEEMED TO BE UNIVERSITY) celebrated “National Women Conclave” on
25th January 2019.
The event welcomed guests from all over India to torch the flame of motivation, enthusiasm
and zeal to aim for the sky and reach the zenith. MMDU, Mullana conferred Nari Shakti Awards

how they didn’t give up even in the darkest of times and emerged as the rays beaming hope
and light. A souvenir with messages from women achievers and dignitaries was also released
by the guests. Women leaders from corporate and business houses also came to the dais for
brainstorming panel discussions about participation of Indian Women and Young girls in building
the nation. They mandated that a really successful country is represented by the amount of
respect and growth it provides to women; it is safety and security that goes hand in hand but
the mind-set of the masses have to be holistic and responsible.
The first speech was deliverd by Padmashri Kalpana Saroj, she shared her struggle story and
focused on the importance of endurance and enterprising attitude in life.

Padmashri Sudha Varghese shared how she brought the social upliftment through Education.
She called for a more comprehensive social welfare participation from all.
Next came up Civil Rights Activists, also known as the Iron Lady- Irom Chanu Sharmila asked
for a widened outlook for women empowerment. She said that “in a democratic society, we all
should learn to nurture ourselves.”
Young mountaineer Shivangi Pathak shared her quest of height that turned out to be a highly
motivational story. The young girl from Haryana impressed the audience with her sense of
humour as well.
Mrs. Universe- Shaveta Athwal informed the fair gender that the beauty lies in the inner
strength and it is struggle that makes you glow the brightest.
During lunch time, the achievers shared their accomplishments with Dr. Meenakshi Garg,
Member MM Trust.
Dr. Tanu Gupta, convener, National Women Conclave 2019, told the media that the conclave has
also received messages from former President of India, Smt. Pratibha Patil and the Chandigarh

Go Hexi, Go Green!

A remarkable initiative has been taken by MMDU towards the
protection of environment and healthy lifestyle of it’s students by
introducing the concept of Hexi bicycles on the campus. Hexi is
the fastest growing network in India and has grown significantly,
since inception about an year ago, giving credence to the fact that
the government in many Indian cities are serious and committed
to making smart, better and sustainable transport options
available to their residents.
Many universities, which have decided to make their campuses
green, by introducing bicycle friendly initiatives and EVs, have
also helped the rapid growth of the Hexi network.
The main aim of this initiative is to reach to the students, and
bring environment friendly short distance transportation options
to more and more people across the country.
Hexi cycles have boosted up the morals of students for staying
fit and healthy and is also a fun activity for them. Hence, within
the campus it has proved itself as a great source of recreational
activity. All the students are delighted by this new organizational
approach to keep environment green and clean. Till now it has
proved its efficiency within the campus of MMDU and is a
successful step for the development of institution on behalf of
the management and authorities.

MUSER’S VOICE

HER HEART CALLS

Listen girls, hear it clear and loud

Shsh!! be quiet don't talk so loud

You should not wear shorts or a skirt

because that means your character is full of dirt

You should not walk out of home at night

otherwise with evil souls you will have to fight

No, you cannot be fat

because the world will force you to wear the body shaming hat

You all might have listened to all these

with these harsh words others tease;

The struggle doesn't end here

let me be very loud and clear

At home she cries behind the door

because her cheek is red and soar

In the womb the foetus cries

as her soul is crushed and she dies

When her boyfriend grips her arm

her heart crushes and she never recovers from that harm.

The struggle is long and wild

but girls never mind

You are stronger than all

get up whenever you fall

Don't stop, speak clear and loud

shout and say your mind with proud

We must teach our boys

that women never were and are not toys.

The Lilliput
Conqueror

Lost, come find me in The Black Forest The Morse
Laying somewhere in the silky nests Code
Caress your hair and there I’m
You may be wondering what’s the scam? Detached, there goes the lever,
Rotating freely in the cosmos I quiver.
By Thee will, I’m tiny. No use of contacting the NASA stations,
Yet, possessing a heart of gold, being shiny. It’s all gone now, as I float above with some
Cupping me in your hands, remaining patience.
As I watch the alluring beauty from the stands.
Tossing me up, you smirked with glee, All this life, living for a moment
Certainly not in a hurry to flee, Here I’ve the SPACE but sadly not the TIME
Thank God I landed on those creamy cheeks. Soon pulled back,
Crawling up my way I reach a place so lavish, Like a meteorite about to crash.
Yes, it definitely is your Iris. HOPE they make a wish soon,
The only place where the black hole shows mercy to light, A BOON before my impending DOOM.
Allow me to watch the spectacle all night.
Sliding down the slippery nose,
I took a turn into those growing dimples,
Don’t worry I won’t describe those volcanic pimples,
Treading my way into those glossy lips,
Allow me to call it dibs,
On those strawberry strips.

Looking straight down at me you Coy, An ode to Explorers of the Unknown,
Don’t you worry I’m not a Decoy. Keep pushing,
I’m just a hopeless Wanderer, Travel those light years, making sure not to die,
Thee called upon me to make you smile, Until then, save my HELLO from the other side.
Which would label me as the Lilliput Conqueror.

Thou Art My Unbalanced

Master! Human

Thou art my master, O'lord, There are no poems, no words heavy enough to break
I pray and string thy cords, what is inside me.
Questions, revealations or reticence, I am two parts too much and one part not enough.
Thou art my listener to it all. Unbalanced.
Determined to break down your walls whilst putting
Thou shall make me stay, up my down.
Whether in blooms, or in thorns, Getting to my root of my trauma and staying there.
Thou shall pick me up, I believe, Getting lost there.
Through my slips or raging falls. Forgetting to come back up for air.
I am resilient but I am not.
Some inevitable sorrows, episodic gloom, I am hardened by the same thing that softens me;
With thy might, they shall sway soon, Weakened by the same thing that empowers me.
I shall hail in thy light, O'lord, I am a tangle of contradictions, a mess of mistakes.
Thou art my master, O' heavenly boon. Masking love for anger. Mistaking anger for love.
I am powerful in the same breathe that I am not.
Blinking miseries, clinging emotions, Breaking promises with the same assurance that I
Thou shall fill in my faded portions, make them.
I shall groove to thy rythms of tranquil, Breaking people. Loving people. Do I need to break
Scraping through my shell, resting in thy motions. myself to love?
I am two parts too much. One part not enough.
I won't smother away, I shall do, Unbalanced Human
Speak it up, or shall ink it all,
Like a phoenix, I shall rise above, ~Gurleen Kaur
The ashes, in thy faith and hope. Bsc Nursing

Thy test of perserverence and unweaning through,
Burning ourselves and not taming them all,
I shall satiate my soul and lubricate my heart,
Not caging my mind, in self-anecdotes.

Thou art my master, O'lord,
I shall drip in finesse and applaud,
Like a calm before a storm, I shall,
In thy zone, without a spade or a sword.

They say, you need a companion,
To travel through the life's palladium,
Thou art my master, O'lord,
A friend, a mate and my only radian.

Resting on a mountain plain, scent of greenery; You know,
I saw you and became lame. I was like a turtle, hiding in my shell. You came to res-
Unable to amble; cue,
Unable to ponder; Make me feel ablaze.
In the life called as game. Monster came hunting,
Wind began to blow, And you know I was scared.
Time came to a halt, You taught me to master,
Nightangale’s mesmerising voice filled the atmosphere. The sword that you gave.
Style of stride; You are exuberant.
Way of orientation; Like a wind, like a flower.
Acting as a tranquilizer. You are the charm of my life.
Time flies and I never saw her, So you,
But as said that destinies can’t be altered. Please make a bond with me, just don’t leave me alone.
Life gave me a second chance to give heed to her voice; Or
Again; at last. I would say,

Most pleasing, alluring she was, her divine eyes like a Because then I will come loafing around, for the hunt of

How can someone be so beautiful. I hate sorrows,
I can put my eyes on you, but can’t take it off. You are I hate those who make me hollow,
blissful, your moves are graceful. Your time ends now and mine start,
You came to me and smiled; happiness; I died. Your biggest nightmare is on,
Your smile killed me; Hunt begun.
Many a times, many a times; as you are, This is amnesia,
My breath was taken away by you; And I don’t care as I don’t belong to that criteria.
Your beauty, many a times; Just don’t leave me alone.
Many a times; a serial killer, Mistakes you made weren’t mine,
I was falling for the whole you, And I am crying.
My ship was sinking in the ocean of you. I feel revulsion towards you but I will not controvert, as I

But I find myself lost in the woods of dark. Similar to the shell where I used to hide.
I got another moment, fortuity of our meet; Wish I wasn’t rescued because that world was mine.
New chapter in the legend of love; I don’t need sunlight,
The book written by us. As I am congenial with the dark.

Mirror Mirror It's because
you can, so
on the wall you will.

You wake up and see the light, A dream that you saw while sleeping,
You realize it’s been a really long night, A dream that got you sweeping,
You smell the dawn Tip toeing around the work,
You put the kettle on, Dodging things that gets you irk,
You hear the birds chirping, Finding thrill in everything done by you.
You unheed the darkness still lurking, To be one of those very few;
You shine that pretentious smile in the mirror, Remind yourself:
But it catches the fakeness, an error; It's because you can
You couldn’t see the mirror eye to eye, And so you will.
It asks, “why dark circles, who painted the dye?” Sweats and pains,
You want to turn and run away No hard work no gains.
You fumble and tip toe in the hallway. The few days that brings you down,
The mirror calls you again, The few days people call you a clown.
“How long can you not acknowledge the pain?” Lost in hopelessness and despair,
You unleash the waters, let it rain. Anxieties lead to grasping for air,
You let the tears pour down in vain. Remind yourself;
You feel the broken bones and smothered skin, Too much of sunshine makes a desert,
You let the mirror’s wisdom sink in. Tornadoes grow in dirt.
You genuinely smile and say it’s going to be fine, It's because you can,
You will reek of hope and sunshine. And so you will.
Today, you blow out confidence A little more to climb the hill,
You take down the nefarious fence. Few more miles to go until.
You walk away and cover up all,
You will rise today, yesterday was a fall. ~Dr. Tanya Gupta
Each day is a new dawn, BDS, Intern
Because we live to move on.
The face in the mirror finally smiles,
Ready to climb a hundred aisles.
You get up and be awake,
Life is what you make,
This might have been your final bow,
You have to burn yourself before you glow.

जितनी यादें बची है उसमें से शायद अब कु छ नहीं इन अड़चनों को पार अब करना ही होगा,

“कोई तो हमे “अभी बाकी
हमसे बहुत है दम“
मिलवाओ”
आज किसी ने हमे हमसे मिलवाया
ना जाने हम कहाँ खो गए हैं। हमारी आत्मा से हमे फिर से रूबरू करवाया
ना जाने हम कहाँ रह गए हंै। यूँ तो हमे लगता था कहीं खो से गए है हम
कोई हमे हम तक पहुंचा दो... कोई हमे हमसे मिलवा पर आज एहसास हुआ... अभी भी बहुत बाकी है
दो। दम
तकलीफ होती है जब हम हमे ही नहीं पहचान पाते एहसास हुआ अभी बाकि है बहुत दम
और हम हमसे ही नहीं मिल पात।े तमन्ना यही है कि कु छ कर गज़ु र जाये हम
कोई तो हमे रास्ता दिखाओ जो दिल मंे है उसे पूरा कर जाये हम।
कोई तो हमे तरकीब बताओ कभी परू ्मिण ा सी खूबसूरत लगती है ये ज़िन्दगी
कोई तो हमे हमसे मिलवाओ। तो कभी बन जाती है एक अधँ ेरी अमावस
बस चाहिए एक दीप जो कर दे इस अमावस को
रोशन... जो कर दे इस अमावस को रोशन।

दनु िया के कामों मंे हमने हमको खो दिया है हमे नहीं पता कहाँ चल दिए है हम
दनु िया के झमेलों में हमने हमको मार दिया है पर एहसास हुआ है.. अभी बाकि बहुत है दम...
कोई तो हमे हमारी याद दिलवाओ... कोई तो हमे बाकी बहुत है दम।
हमसे मिलवाओ। यु तो ज़िन्दगी मंे कमी नहीं है कोई... पर ऐसा भी
बड़े दिनों बाद हमे हमारी याद आई है। नहीं है कि दखु छू कर गया ना कोई

AMMUNATION-2019:

An Intra-University Talent Hunt

Providing the students a platform to showcase their talent, Department of Student
Welfare conducted AMMUNATION-2019, an intra-university talent hunt. Budding stars of
the colleges and institutions of MM(DU) were encouraged to explore their hidden talent
and rock the stage through various activities like Music, Dance, Theatre, Literary, Fine Arts
& Craft, Quiz, and Photography.
Serving as a powerful medium to develop the student’s personality and confidence in a
holistic manner, the Talent Hunt received humongous participation. The event instilled a
healthy competitive spirit among students as well as inspired them to perform infront of
crowd.
A child with no hobbies is a man with no improvisational skills. Here at MMDU, every year the
students are given an opportunity to outshine themselves and embark their personalities
that are muffled under the books of their curriculum. AMMUNATION-2019 started with
zeal and enthusiasm and consisted of plethora of events. These competitions boosted the
confidence of the students and helped children to beat the everyday chaos and stress.
From tapping the feet to finding the footloose, from fanning the thoughts to
putting the ink to paper, from folding sheets to crafting exquisite art, from finding
the musical chorus to singing like a Nightingale, from banging the metals to
creating pleasant music, from finding interests that are imaginations sprouting
out to make a forest of creativity, Ammunation 2019 covered and marked it all.
It lasted for more than 2 months and ended with the valedictory ceremony where the
winners were bestowed with prize, trophies and other merits. It was a creative spell of
Co-corricular spirit that bonded the students of MMDU on a whole different level. It ended
lavishly and promised to come back soon again.

SYMPHONY OF WORDS

Overcoming Obstacles

An obstacle is anything that gets in your way of achieving your goals and living the life you truly desire.
Obstacles present themselves the moment you set your sight on something you want.
Why is overcoming obstacles important? Obstacles derail you. They keep you stuck in the past by
preventing you from taking action. They root you in fear, convincing you that you aren’t good enough, you
don’t know enough, you don’t have enough time or money, and you’re out of options. If you don’t learn how
to overcome obstacles, you run the risk of being ruled by them.
In many cases, obstacles are physical or blatant, whereas some are non-physical and less discernable.
In some ways they can show up as limiting beliefs you have about yourself or others, and on some days
they appear as other people or circumstances preventing you from being, doing, or having the things you
want. Obstacles show up in many forms and are experienced throughout the energetic (spiritual), mental,
emotional, and physical bodies.
Depending on how you deal with the obstacles that present themselves will determine the frequency
and intensity in which you experience them. Following is a guided meditation for helping you to overcome
obstacles in any area of your life. As you move through each self-reflection question, allow yourself a
minute or two for contemplation.

• Sit comfortably and close your eyes.
• Take a long deep breath in 2-3 times and begin to take slow deep breaths, in and out through your nose.
• Allow your shoulders to relax and your torso to soften with every exhale.
• Bring into your awareness an area of your life where an obstacle is present.
• Think about when, where, and how this obstacle began.
• Ask yourself, who or what triggers the problem? What thoughts and emotions are prevalent when the
obstacle is present?
• Now bring your attention to the cost of this obstacle. How does it affect your ability to be? How does it
affect the things you want in life? How does it affect those around you?
• Next, see what can be available to you if you overcome this obstacle and are able to move powerfully
forward in your life.
• Consider anyone you know who has already overcome this kind of obstacle. Who was it? What approach
did they take?
• Ask yourself or the Universe for guidance as to navigate and overcome this obstacle.
• Imagine your life as if the obstacle was dissolved and you are now standing in the life you have created
by design.
• After you have a positive internal representation (an image, sound, or feeling) of being free from this
obstacle, spend a few moments in quiet contemplation before slowly coming out of your meditation.

Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR):
Voluntary or Statutory

The societal obligatory part of the profit making corporate i.e., Corporate Social Responsibility, known
with other names as Corporate Citizenship and Responsible Business is making sense and gaining much
popularity now-a-days. It means that the corporate houses have to spend 2% of the amount of profit
on social causes to uplift the societal status. Earlier it was done by the business houses to create and
maintain goodwill into the society, but now it has been made mandatory by the government.
CSR is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic
development while improving the quality of life of workforce and their families as well as of the local
community and society at large. (Lord Holme & Richard Watts, 1999)

Mental Health and Disorder:

Nothing is more terrifying than battling with your own mind every single day. We can’t
often comprehend what’s going on in the mind of a mentally ill patient. There may be
some thoughts, emotions and feelings that they don’t share with us due to fear of being
misjudged or misunderstood. For them it’s like trying to explain colour to someone who is
colorblind.
They may give you random passing statements like ‘I want to run away or hide, I want to go
somewhere far, I am a burden on my family, I should not have been born.’ They start losing
concentration on work and studies. They start dodging people.
You may find them sleep-deprived or oversleeping. You may find them agitated and not
at peace. In this way their mental health screams for attention but instead of confronting
this issue, we often try to cover it because we live in a society where if you break your arm
everyone runs over to sign your cast but if you tell people you are depressed or mentally
ill they run the other way. It is ironical that a society which can now speak openly about
topics which were ones unspeakable still remains silent when it comes to mental illness.
Time has come to discuss this issue openly and face it. People don’t hide it when they have
fever, heart problems or diabetes then why to be ashamed of depression, anxiety, bipolar
disorder or ADHD. Issues like these and other major mental illnesses such as OCD, post
traumatic stress disorder and schizophrenia should be taken seriously because with a
little encouragement and correct treatment at correct time can save one person from
going further into the grasp of such issues.
Now the question arises “how to improve mental health?”
1. Making the conscious decision to improve mental health is a critical first step.
2. Practice whatever relaxes you and feeds your mind with positive, happy thoughts.
3. Recharge yourself with some relaxing music and reboot yourself by socializing.
4. Track your progress over time by putting it on paper because if you track things like
your eating habits, sleeping hours, exercise regimen you become aware of the reality of
situation.
5. Things like sleep, good nutrition and exercise should be high on your to-do list. Just like
insulin reduces diabetes; Healthy lifestyle, counselling and medication reduces mental
