QUIT SMOKING [008.0023.0]

ABOUT MYSELF

Now I am 60 plus [was born in year 1947]
I started regular smoking at age of 23 years & quit at age of 36 years.
At that time I was smoking 60 cigarettes a day.`
You have read allot about harms of smoking. But not much is emphasized
on harm to fetus if any of the parents are smoking & they are living together

HOW DIFFICULT IS TO QUIT

If one decides to quit smoking. He has to think, if he looses one of the limbs, will he keep on living or commit suicide.
INFORMATION ONE REQUIRES TO KNOW
• Smoking is a habit not intoxication. So the call to smoke is of habit not intoxication.
• Alcohol & Bhang also fall in the same category.
• Intoxications like Hashish, LSD are real.

CLASSIFICATION
- To find out, the call is of habit or intoxication, is very simple.
- If it is a habit, urge shall be persisting, till it is satisfied.
- If it is a serial intoxication, it will call at the time body requires it. After (say) about 30 minutes one shall feel intoxicated,
   irrespective of, whether he consumes item or not.
- The effects shall be lesser & crave shall be harder. This feature will persist for a few days.
HOW WE GET PLEASURE IN SMOKING
While smoking we inhale carbon mono oxide [CO] also with carbon di oxide [CO2] & carbon particles.
Carbon mono oxide clogs the blood cells.
When we inhale fresh air oxygen [O2] between the puffs of cigarettes; the clogged blood cells bust, in turn the blood converts back to normal shape.
This particular process gives the pleasure to a smoker. The visible indications are one is smoking after a long time he starts swatting, even in cold whether.

HELP
To achieve the same effect, one has to hold his breed till he can. In the process some carbon mono oxide will be formed, & create same effect.
Following presentation shall inform more about the subject

Here's how a Normal Lung looks…..

 


 






Here's how a Smoker's Lung looks…..









White area on top is the cancer this is what killed the person. The blackened area is just the deposit of tars that all smokers paint into their lungs with every puff they take.

A Normal Inflated Lung …..











A smoker's lung with emphysema...







The most well known smoking induced COPD ( Chronicobstructive pulmonary disease) is emphysema. This is another one of those diseases that primarily happen to smokers. Over 90% of the cases are smoking induced.

To get a sense of how a lung is altered by smoking to cause emphsema look at the pictures above. The first is a picture of an inflated non-smoker city dweller's lung. And second a smoker's lung with emphysema There is a very dramatic visible difference. Not only is the discoloration the issue, but the lungs have literally been ripped out of shape making breathing extremely difficult and eventually impossible.

To get a sense of what it feels like to breathe with emphysema take a deep breath and hold it. Without letting out any air, take another deep breath. Hold that one too. One more time, take one more breath. Now let it all out.

That second or third breath is what it feels like to breathe when you have emphysema. Emphysema is a disease where you cannot exhale air. Everyone thinks that it is a disease where you cannot inhale but in fact it is the opposite. When you smoke you destroy the lungs elasticity by destroying the tissue that pulls your lung back together after using muscles that allow us to inhale air. So when it comes time to take your next breath it is that much more difficult, for your lungs could not get back to their original shape.

Imagine going through life having to struggle to breathe like those last two breaths I had you take. Unfortunately, millions of people don't have to imagine it, they live it daily. It is a miserable way to live and a slow painful way to die.

Hopefully when you breathe normally today you are not in pain and you are not on oxygen. If you don't smoke you will continue to give yourself the ability to breathe longer and feel better. Never lose sight of this fact. To keep your ability to breathe better for the rest of your life, always remember to - NEVER TAKE ANOTHER PUFF !

A workable method I learnt today for QUITING SMOKING in the book

THE MAGIC OF THINKING BIG by DAVID J. SCHWARTZ

[Chapter 12 - USE GOALS TO HELP GROW]

    It is called step by step method
    Your goal is quitting smoking
    You march towards your goal
    You start with a target not to smoke for one hour
    Then for another hour
    Then for another hour
    At one point you give up
    But do not get disheartened
    Start again marching to wards goal hour by hour
    Slowly the hours increase to 4, 5 & more
    You start marching also faster towards goal i. e. 2 hour by 2 hour, then 3 hour

by 3 hour, & so on

Very soon you found the goal is reached & you have got rid of smoking habit

SLAVE INDIA(N)

SLAVE INDIA(N)




Indian had been slave since the modern history is recorded. It does not look like we will ever come out of it.



In between there was a phase when Indian as well as India both ware enslaved.



Invasion in India was always there, due to its prosperity and climate.



The first invaders, could stay in India were Mughals.



The reasons made possible their stay are:



The Indian [indigenous] rulers were

- Never in accord with other & always worked against each other.*

- Treating their subject as slave & doing nothing good for them as well as state,

- Were involved in their luxuries & did not bother for welfare of the kingdom.

- Were imposing unnecessary taxes on subject.

- Were passing unfair judgments.

- Treated the kingdom as there personal property not a state.

We all know no ruler can stay if the subject does not like him.



Looking at the plus points of Mughals; [from the point of view an Indian]:



They came form central Asia via Iran. In process of atleast two generations were passed & they lost all connections with their people back home.

- In turn they had only option, to stay in India only.

- Hence they had not to take Indian treasure out of India.

- On top of that they were good rulers & did justice to all.



The only negative point propagated against Mughals is they forced the subject to change their religion. This charge has no gravity as they were Shias.

- In India most of Shias are direct decedents of Mughals.

- They make a very small percenatage of Muslims [hardly 10%] in India.

- It has to be analyzed by the reader, why will Mughals convert the subject to

Sunni Muslim; when they were themselves Shias.





Maximum conversion of Hindus happened after first war of Independence in year 1857. When our so called low cast brothers, came to know about the biggest advantage of being a Muslim; i. e. ALL ARE EQUAL & there are no cast or creed.



The reason of Hindu-Muslim problem in India is the same. Low cast & high cast Hindu war. Only the colour of banner is changed.



Then British invaded India & they enslaved India in real sense.

- They took Indian treasure to the limit, most prosperous country of the world,

became one of the poorest.

- Indian civilization is oldest civilization. We will leave China out discussion. It is to

be still decided. Rome stands no where.

- Indian trading was so advanced, if you find a 300 year old building / structure

using steel, the steel is of Indian origin.

- Historians do not talk about the restrictions imposed by British upon Indian

manufacturers, traders & exporters. An Indian had to forget all about business

& look for job to survive.

- Still on date we get educated, to get a good & secured job, where we get our

salary [whether we work or not] at the end of month.

- Did we ever think, we do not have much of mines for gold or jewels? Still we

have that maximum.

- These were brought back by our traders.

- We are still keeping them hidden as have a fear in our mind, [if exposed]

they will we picked by British [now our indigenous government].

- All government machinery i.e. civil servants & police were involved in collection

of wealth from Indian subject. [what they are still doing]

- We very well know Dandi March of Gandhi jee, when he broke the British law

on salt in India.



Just to remind, what was the law about salt; the British ships were carrying treasure

from India to Britain, but had nothing to carry back. To keep ship balanced while sailing

to India, they used to carry salt. To make this process profitable it was sold India. To

make it feasible they banned processing & collecting salt from sea shores of India.



The British salt was as in Indian market at very high price. One can imagine how high the

price was, by the proverb [if you remember] :

If salt is spilled, it has to be picked by eye lids in the other world.



Slavery of India finished on August 15, 1947.



Still an India[n] could not be free & entered into 4th phase of slavery. Just peruse

- Indian is still paying very high & unjustified taxes at different stages.

- Most of time taxes imposed are several times.

- Has to pay bribe to get even the regular jobs executed.

- All government machinery i.e. politicians, civil servants & police are involved

in collection of wealth from Indian subject as well as the government treasury.

- The Indian is still looted & treasure is sent out of country,









We can very easily judge this by the value of Indian currency in the international market.

The amount sent out by politicians & buecrates is so big, it can change the economy of world.



The only way we can get out of it, is getting educated. But the ruling system & its’

operatives, rulers [politicians] do not let it happen.



The present position is, percentage of people getting educated is much less than increase in population.

The population increase is due to two following reasons

- The birth rate is not reducing reasonably.

- The average age is increasing quite reasonably keeping the old [uneducated]

people alive.

Hence percentage of Indian is getting lesser & lesser educated with time.



Population control is not in favour of present rulers [Indian politicians]. So family planning

is not to be implemented.



There are a few more major negative points.

- Only educated as well as intelligent people are interested in family planning.

In turn percentage of this class in reducing considerably.

- Most of this class is moving abroad for honest, honorable & better living

Conditions. This also includes reasonable taxation as well as the benefits

generated.





* Tipu sultan had almost kicked out British, but Nizam of Hydrabad went out to help

British. Tipu could have been successful in his mission if only Nizam of Hydrabad

would have kept silent.
