Find A Man - Start Your Campaign Now


By Mark Date

Are you over being single? Looking for a man to have some sort of relationship with? Do you have a plan or are you happy to leave your love life to the fickle winds of fate? Do you say to yourself "It will happen when it's meant to happen" or "What will be will be"? Do you leave the rest of your life to fate or to just meander on? Most people put some thought and planning into other aspects of their lives like careers, study, buying homes, or saving to travel, but when faced with their romantic life are happy to let things "just happen".



Now, if that particular strategy worked so well you would not be reading this article. However, you should not despair. You are now officially on the way to taking control of your dating life. Finding Mr Right can take more than a bit of luck. Finding Mr Right can take some planning and thought.



Firstly, what sort of man are you after? Sporty, career minded, trendy, older, younger, with children, or without. Online dating gives you plenty of opportunity to ensure you are going to be meeting up with the style of man you prefer. Do you have a better track record with one particular type of man? Think about your best previous relationships and what you enjoyed so much about the guy. Apply some of those features to your wish list for Mr Right.



Secondly, are you presenting yourself in your best light? Men tend to go off physical appearances first. Spend a bit of time and money if you have to on your outfits and appearance. This is an investment in your future happiness and is not a waste of money. Don't use this as an excuse to run up credit you cannot hope to pay off. Stick within your means. If you need to lose a few pounds then do so. Eat a bit less, and exercise a bit more. Most guys tend to look first and then get to know you later. By looking the very best you can you are increasing your chances of getting Mr Right.



Great presentation extends to taking some trouble with your online dating profile photo. Guys will look at this before they read what you have written. Play up your best physical attributes in the photo and keep snapping until you get some you are happy with.



Thirdly, join an online dating site and then use this site to its full potential. Check in regularly to make sure you are not missing out on any of the new hotties. The singles world is full of determined women and you can't be too quick. Does your online dating site hold singles events you can attend? Perhaps your online dating site has a speed dating component attached. This can be a fantastic way to meet multiple single men in one night.



Your love life should attract as much of your attention as saving for a holiday or a new job. Finding Mr Right can take some time and trouble. Start planning your campaign now to improve your romantic life. Don't just sit there. Join an online dating site now.

Learning About Telugu Brahmins


By James Gunaseelan

Not many sources have a lot to say about Telugu Brahmins. This is probably because Telugu Brahmins have common beliefs with many other Brahmin groups. They also distinctly have a low profile when it comes to politics, preferring to excel instead in other fields. Telugu Brahmins are not distinguished by their religious philosophies but by their language.



Telugu Brahmins speak Telugu. This is a language of Dravidian origins and is greatly influenced by Sanskrit. It is an official language of India and is the third most spoken in the nation. It is spoken in many other Indian regions including Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra. Its main speakers however are the residents of the state Andhra Pradesh where it is a state language. Andhra Pradesh is the biggest southern state and the fourth biggest in India. It has both a large land area and is well-populated.



Like Iyer Brahmins, Telugu Brahmins are followers of Adi Shankara who was a major proponent of Advaita Vedanta. It is believed that it was Adi Shankara who first brought about the various aspects followed by the Vedic groups into a solid philosophy.



As believers of Advaita Vedanta, Telugu Brahmins believe that there is no reality but Brahman. They also believe that there is no way of describing God and attributing traits and qualities to him. He is timeless, omnipotent and omnipresent. The only reason why some individuals may attribute traits to him is because of human ignorance. They further teach that the different names for God are really one and the same God that is reality.



Telugu Brahmins are allowed by Vedic interpretation to worship different forms of God. That is, God in whatever name. In contrast, some Brahmins only consider Vishnu or Shiva to be the true God. Other gods are simply demigods, deities or subordinates of the true God



Sources about Telugu Brahmins also refer to them as Smarta Brahmins. This is because Smarta refers to adherence to tradition. Smarta Brahmins in particular adhere to the Vedic traditions. This is an important distinction since some other beliefs that are not based on the sacred scriptures or the Vedas have become incorporated in various Hindu philosophies.



Telugu Brahmins share the history of other Brahmin classes and subclasses. Brahmins are typically viewed by those who do not live in India as the highest level in the social caste system. Originally though, Brahmins of the ancient times could be any person from any class or family who achieved great understanding of the sacred scriptures.



Later on in history, Brahmins became the most important persons in society. Gradually, their top position in society became a permanent caste distinction. Brahmins became priests and teachers. In the case of Telugu Brahmins, many of them were rewarded with land in exchange for their work.



In the past, there were strict regulations. Brahmins were only supposed to perform religious rites, study and teach. Regulations also limited or even prevented the movement of individuals into the higher Brahmin caste. The Telugu Brahmins however could either be Niyogi or Vaidika. The Vaidika concentrate in religious studies, teaching and priestly duties. The Niyogi can participate in non-priestly professions.



Like other Brahmins, the Telugu Brahmins have undergone a lot of changes. It is obvious that these days many Brahmins seek secular involvement. Although there are comparatively less Telugu Brahmins in politics, many of them have chosen to be involved in other fields like science and the arts.



There are other numerous details about Telugu Brahmins. Like many other aspects of Hindu religion and culture, the Brahmins are made up of complex and ever changing groups and sub groups of people.

Finding Out About Deshasth (Marathi) Brahmins


By James Gunaseelan

What is there to know about Deshasth (Marathi) Brahmins? Apparently, there is a lot to learn about this interesting sub-group of Brahmins. Like many other Brahmins, they also share the belief in the basic philosophies of Hinduism. There are however some minor aspects that set them apart from other Brahmins.



Deshasth Brahmins are actually distinguished first by geographic location. Deshasth is of Sanskrit origin. Not everyone agrees about the translation of this term. It is generally agreed though that Deshasthas do not reside near coasts. They are therefore individuals who are primarily located inland. The Deshasth Brahmins mainly live in Maharashtra among other Brahmin communities. Maharastra is located in the western inland portion of India.



Like other Brahmin communities, the Deshasth Brahmins have sub groups. The two major groups are the Rigvedi and the Yajurvedi. Many sources however also specifically mention the Marathi Brahmins who are also Deshasth.



Marathi is actually a language spoken primarily by the Maharashtrians. They are of Indo-Aryan descent who mainly live in Maharashtra. It is therefore safe to conclude that some but not all Deshasth Brahmins are Marathi. Among the Maharashtrians, the Marathi Brahmins make up less than 5% of the inhabitants.



Marathi Brahmins share a lot of similarities with other Brahmin groups. Like other Brahmins for example they also practice rituals of purification and cleansing. They are also primarily vegetarians with some allowing the consumption of approved dairy-based products.



Not all of them however can be pinned down to an absolutely strict philosophical leaning. One thing you should know about Deshasth (Marathi) Brahmins is that they can either be Vaishnavas or Shaivites. This simply means that some view either Vishnu or Shiva as the Supreme God. All other gods are either demigods or lower gods compared to the Supreme God. As with other Brahmins, Marathi Brahmins may also choose to honor other manifestations of their Supreme God and other deities.



Marathi Brahmins may also differ according to some other philosophical beliefs. Again, this is similar to other Brahmins. They may believe for example that God has no real attributes and only choose either Shiva or Vishnu as their preferred manifestation of one and the same God. Others however may truly believe in a separate and true God manifestation.



The Marathi Brahmins share the same occupational history as other Brahmins. Historically, Brahmins belong to the highest caste and were once strictly dedicated to priestly duties, studying, teaching the scriptures and astrology. As in any other state or area in India, the Marathi Brahmins were indispensable. They were needed for religious rituals, marriages, death ceremonies and to reveal scriptural truths to members of the other classes.



There were some who dabbled with traditional medicine and farming. The latter form of occupation probably emerged due to the fact that many Brahmins were awarded lands by the warrior class for the execution of religious duties.



These days, Marathi Brahmins have joined other Brahmins in secular fields. There are Marathi Brahmins in almost any kind of employment and have achieved much in different modern fields in the arts and sciences. Marathi Brahmins however are said to be particularly distinguished in the areas of social justice, literature and other fields within the realm of the arts.



This is not only true for the Marathi Brahmins in India. Many of them have chosen to excel outside of India. There are many Marathi success stories in foreign entertainment, sports, politics and business.



There is much more to learn about Deshasth (Marathi) Brahmins. Not every piece of information however is available through accessible means. Those who wish to learn more about this Brahmin sub group should seek knowledge from the Marathi Brahmins themselves. Many can be found populating online forum sites.

So Your Partner Wants to Take a Break

Anybody over the age of, say, 17 has seen that infamous episode of Friends. You know the one: Ross and Rachel decide to go on a break to re-assess their relationship...and everything falls apart. Ross cheats, drama ensues, and there's a big, nasty breakup. And while Ross and Rachel do get their "happily ever after" in the end, when you hear the dreaded words "I think we should take a break," your heart flips over in your chest and you hear the bells of relationship doom ringing in your ears. Because outside the world of Friends, "I want to take a break" means that it's over, right?






What Wanting a Break Can Mean



Not necessarily. Especially in long term relationships, your partner can be unhappy for an infinite number of reasons...and not all of them have to do with you. It might be something concrete going on at work or with family, or something harder to pin down, like feeling generally unfulfilled. Or sometimes, your partner may just feel unhappy without even knowing why. It's frustrating, but it happens. And when it does, it's perfectly normal for them to want time away to get a little bit of perspective.



Taking a break can be a good thing. It can give your boyfriend or girlfriend a chance to reassess their priorities and figure out what's going wrong in life. It can make them realize that life is better with you in it than it is with you out of it. It can bring you closer and make your relationship stronger.



But it can also mean that your relationship is coming to an end. I'm sure it's not what you want to hear, but sometimes "taking a break" is just a way of breaking up without saying so. To some people, it just seems like the easy (okay, the cowardly) way out of an unhappy relationship.



What You Should Do



First, don't freak out. There are a lot of reasons why your partner might have asked for a break, and you don't want to jump to any conclusions. So silence those ringing bells of doom in your head, and try to keep your cool. A "break" doesn't necessarily mean a "break-up."



Next, talk to your partner about why he or she wants to take a break, and try to look for the truth in his or her answers. If he or she hems and haws about giving you a reason for the break, you can start to worry. But if your partner insists that he or she just needs a bit of space to reassess their life and relationship, the best thing to do is take their statements at face value.



And then give your partner what they want. If you want to save yourself from a potentially dramatic and drawn-out break up, you might just want to break it off with them permanently. But if you really want your relationship to have a chance, you'll have to give your partner the space that they need. There's a chance that your boyfriend or girlfriend will realize that their problems lie within themselves - not with you. And though it'll hurt to be apart, giving your partner the space that they need will only make the relationship stronger.



So just take a deep breath, try not to panic, and have hope. While it's possible your boyfriend or girlfriend wants to end things permanently, it's also possible for a break to be a good thing. Good luck.
