H'ART Museum

H'ART Museum is an art museum located on the banks of the Amstel river in Amsterdam. Formerly a satellite of the Hermitage Museum of Saint Petersburg, Russia, the museum cut ties with the Hermitage after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
The museum is housed in the former Amstelhof, a classical style building from 1681. The structure opened in 1682 as a retirement home for elderly women under the name Diaconie Oude Vrouwen Huys (English: Deanery Home for Old Women) on the east bank of the river Amstel. Beginning in 1817, the facility housed both elderly men and women, and was renamed Diaconie Oude Vrouwen- en Mannenhuis (English: Deanery Home for Old Men and Women). The building was first named Amstelhof (English: Amstel Court) in 1953.
In the 1990s, operators of the facility determined that it was inadequate to meet the modern needs of its residents and sought to build a new structure elsewhere. They offered the historic structure to the city of Amsterdam, who, in turn, leased it to the museum. The last inhabitants left the Amstelhof in 2007. On 20 June 2009, the museum was opened by Dutch Queen Beatrix and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. The museum was open to the public the following day.
During the more than 300 years that residents were housed in the Amstelhof, several renovations took place on the building interior and wings were added to provide needed space. Thus, little of the original interior remained when work for the museum began. While some areas were restored to their original appearance, many existing walls were removed and spaces reconfigured to accommodate the museum's needs. The total cost of the renovations was €40 million.
The temporary museum in the Neerlandia Building on the Nieuwe Keizersgracht closed in 2008 to become the Hermitage for Children. It opened along with the main museum on 20 June 2009.
On 3 March 2022, the museum severed ties with the State Hermitage in St. Petersburg because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began a week prior. The museum became known as the H'ART Museum from 1 September 2023.
In 2023 the museum announced that it would be working with the Smithsonian, the Centre Pompidou and the British Museum to present exhibitions.

Mona Lisa (Hermitage)

Hermitage Mona Lisa is a painting on canvas, which was made by an unknown painter in the mid-16th century and is located in the Hermitage Museum of Saint Petersburg. It was transferred from the Antikvariat All-Union Association and entered the Hermitage in 1931.
This is a portrait of Lisa Gherardini, best known as Mona Lisa or Gioconda, and is a clear copy of Leonardo da Vinci's early 16th century Mona Lisa. This version slightly differs from da Vinci's artwork, exhibited at the Louvre in Paris, and its good workmanship, legibility, and expressiveness have been pointed out. The execution of the portrait is presumably of Nordic Europe derivation, in particular German-Flemish.
The face of the model is younger than da Vinci's version, and the rear panorama presents two columns, which are absent in the original. Many have called this picture Gioconda with columns. Two columns are found in other copies such as Gioconda of Oslo in National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design, Gioconda of Baltimore in Walters Art Museum and Gioconda of Reynolds in Dulwich Picture Gallery.
Scientific analysis was carried out on the canvas and baryte, called barium sulphate in chemistry, was found. It is a mineral used for the preparation of the support, especially in the years ranging from 1620 to 1680, but when this substance was used, Leonardo had been dead for more than a century.
Hermitage Theatre

The Hermitage Theatre (Russian: Эрмитажный Театр, romanized: Èrmitážnyj Teátr, IPA: [ɪrmʲɪˈtaʐnɨj tʲɪˈat(ə)r]) in Saint Petersburg, Russia is one of five Hermitage buildings lining the Palace Embankment of the Neva River.
The Hermitage Theatre was the second theatre of the Winter Palace. It replaced the Russian Imperial Theater, which operated from 1764 until 1783. The Hermitage Theatre was built between 1783 and 1787 at the behest of Catherine the Great to a Palladian design by Giacomo Quarenghi. The crumbling Third Winter Palace of Peter the Great was demolished to make room for the new structure, although its old foundations are still visible in the ground floor. Quarenghi's designs for the theatre were engraved and published in 1787, earning him a European reputation.
The semicircular auditorium is decorated with color marble and surrounded with ten niches for statues of Apollo and the muses. As the interior has never been overhauled, the original stage machinery remains in situ, but the elaborate sets, an acclaimed work of the Italian artist Pietro Gonzaga (1751-1831), were lost during the years of Soviet neglect.
The ceremonial opening of the theatre took place on 22 November 1785. Though the auditorium could seat no more than 250 spectators, it was often overcrowded. Usually, the performance would be attended by several dozen aristocratic spectators, all invited by the monarch herself. As a sign of gratitude, a separate loge was reserved for the architect Quarenghi and his family. In the 19th century, selected members of the diplomatic corps were admitted to the theatre as well.
Although the building was used to entertain the imperial family until the Russian Revolution, it came to be viewed as a rare monument to Catherine's personal tastes and affections. The empress brought out several comedies specifically to be staged in this theatre, which also saw the premieres of Domenico Cimarosa's operas composed to her own librettos. As for the costumes, they were chosen from a 15,000-dress personal wardrobe of the late Empress Elizabeth.
Mathilde Kschessinska, Anna Pavlova, and Fyodor Chaliapin were among the great artists who performed at the Hermitage Theatre for the last Russian tsar. Among the ballets performed there was the premiere of Marius Petipa's Harlequinade, in 1900. The Bolsheviks closed the theatre and utilised the building for administrative purposes. It was not until 1991 that performances were resumed on this stage, with the likes of Svyatoslav Richter, Mstislav Rostropovich and Yelena Obraztsova appearing as guest stars.

Moscow Hermitage Garden (Russian: Сад Эрмитаж), a popular recreation spot, is a park in the central part of Moscow, Russia on Karetny Ryad Street. It is known for its cultural attractions and adjacent theaters. Regular events include opera, ballet and concerts.
The Garden was developed by Yakov Schukin, a Russian theater entrepreneur and mecenate, and opened to the general public in 1894. Cosy summer garden for open-air concerts with open stage was formed by Y. Schukin around his theater. The official dedication was held on June 18, 1895. On first time the Garden was named "New Hermitage".
26 May 1896 it hosted the Lumière's Cinématographe premiere in Moscow. In 1898 here on the stage of Hermitage Theatre on Karetnyi Ryad was opened Moscow Art Theatre. Also the premieres of famous works of Chekhov The Seagull 1898, Uncle Vanya 1899, Three Sisters 1901, have been performed here.
Performances here have included such prominent actors as Sarah Bernhardt, Ernesto Rossi, Gustavo Salvini and many others. The Garden has been the site of operas by the Savva Mamontov company and seen benefices for Fyodor Shalyapin.
The Novaya Opera, Hermitage and Sphera theaters are located in the Hermitage Garden.
Since 1998 at summertime the Garden is a traditional venue for Moscow International Outdoor Jazz Festival – “Jazz at the Hermitage Garden”.
In 2000, two busts were erected in the Hermitage Garden: the first is French writer and poet Victor Hugo, offered by the mayor of Paris, and the second is Italian writer Dante Alighieri, gift of the Italian government.
On February 7, 2008 the historic Schukin Stage building (Russian: Щукинская сцена) was damaged by a fire that broke out in the upscale nightclub Dyagilev Project. The nightclub, which had opened in March 2006, was burnt to the ground. Emergency services tried to extinguish the fire using a specially equipped helicopter. The roof and wooden beams of the Schukin building collapsed, leaving only a solid brick wall. The administrative offices part of the building was not damaged. The official investigation concluded that the fire was caused by a short circuit. Officials announced that the historic building would be restored.

Antonio

Antonio is a masculine given name of Etruscan origin deriving from the root name Antonius. It is a common name among Romance language–speaking populations as well as the Balkans and Lusophone Africa. It has been among the top 400 most popular male baby names in the United States since the late 19th century and has been among the top 200 since the mid 20th century.
In the English language, it is translated as Anthony, and has some female derivatives: Antonia, Antónia, Antonieta, Antonietta, and Antonella'. It also has some male derivatives, such as Anthonio, Antón, Antò, Antonis, Antoñito, Antonino, Antonello, Tonio, Tono, Toño, Toñín, Tonino, Nantonio, Ninni, Totò, Tó, Tonini, Tony, Toni, Toninho, Toñito, and Tõnis. The Portuguese equivalent is António (Portuguese orthography) or Antônio (Brazilian Portuguese). In old Portuguese the form Antão was also used, not just to differentiate between older and younger but also between more and less important. In Galician the form is Antón, in Catalan Anton, and Basque Antxon. The Greek versions of the name are Antonios (Αντώνιος) and Antonis (Αντώνης).
The name derives from Antonius, a well-known Latin family name, probably of Etruscan origin. The Roman general Marcus Antonius held that the origin of the name was Anthon (Ανθών), son of Hercules. This myth, recorded by Plutarch, was probably created by Marcus Antonius himself, in order to claim divine parentage. The name was in use throughout the Roman world which, at its height, comprised the whole of the Mediterranean, much of Europe and the Middle East. When the Roman Empire became Christian, the name continued to be popular because of the many great saints who bore it. Later, the name was spread all around the world as Christianity was forced to other locations (e.g. the Far East, the Americas, Australia, and Sub-Saharan Africa).

The Great Theater of the World

The Great Theater of the World (El Gran Teatro del Mundo) is a c. 1634 play from Spanish writer Pedro Calderón de la Barca (17 January 1600 – 25 May 1681). The play is an allegorical explanation of man's place in world according to the Catholic Church doctrine.
In the play there is an Author (God) who writes the actual Play that is the world; humans are given characters according to the Author’s will: the King who has the power, the poor who suffers, the rich who enjoys very much his stay in the Play, etc., etc. These characters are just playing their roles in this “Play” that is the world and is just a test. Those who do a good performance of their characters will be rewarded by the Author at the end of the (brief, short, and fast) Play while those who do a bad performance will receive their just punishment.
The play is a depiction of the Catholic Church’s doctrine on how humans are on Earth just for a brief and fast test while the real (and eternal) existence is the one that begins with death as in the afterlife. Calderón uses again this doctrinal and philosophical concept of human existence in the world in his more famous play, Life Is a Dream.
This concept of human existence is today’s official Catholic doctrine and an argument against God’s nonexistence due to the suffering and evil present in the world. This doctrine states that only God and the afterlife are the source of absolute justice as they are the only guarantee that evil but powerful and rich people will receive just punishment and good but poor/ill people who suffer on Earth will receive just reward.
InteGreat Theater

InteGreat Theater, formerly known as Words, Signs & Vibes (WS&V), is a performing arts independent youth theatre which aims towards working with integrating the deaf and hearing communities through drama and sign songs. The youth theatre meets at the Hippodrome Theatre in Birmingham, United Kingdom on Saturday afternoons.
They started as a part of the Leaveners, a Quaker performing arts group, alongside their other two groups, Quaker Music Making and Quaker Youth Theatre. After gaining popularity at various events, such as the Big Youth Theatre Festival (BYTF) and receiving the Wavemakers Award, the youth theatre split from its parent organisation due to financial issues, becoming and Independent Voluntary Organisation. The group formerly met at the Crescent Theatre before September 2008, when the group moved to the Hippodrome.
The theater is led primarily by two drama leaders, Angela Twigg and Jayne Fletcher, who after working as drama leaders while the group was a member of the Leaveners, since moved to save the group from disbanding by forming it into an independent organisation in its own right.
The drama leaders are helped in workshops and projects by volunteer workers and interpreters to aid with communication with sign language.

Ujanishaji wa Nairobi

Miundombinu ya kijani ni njia ya kujenga ayahami aina ya maji wa maeneo ya jirani. Hii inaweza kujumuisha kurejesha ardhi oevu, kupanda miti, na kutumia michakato mingine ya asili ya matibabu ya ubora wa maji.
Nairobi, mji mkuu wa Kenya, imekuwa ikifanya juhudi katika miaka ya hivi majuzi ili kujumuisha hili katika maeneo mengi ya mijini. Hali ya Miundombinu katika Eneo la Jiji la Nairobi (NMA) inaeleza baadhi ya njia mahususi ambazo Nairobi inahusisha juhudi za miundombinu ya kijani kibichi. Hizi ni pamoja na, ufungaji wa masanduku ya mimea, lami ya kunyonya joto, na upandaji wa miti katika maeneo ya mijini.
Mchangiaji mkubwa wa maji machafu ni mitiririko. [2] Mtiririko [3] wa maji husababishwa na maji kutoka kwa dhoruba kuokota vifusi wakiwa nchi kavu na kisha kuchafua maji yanayowazunguka. Uchafu unaopatikana katika mtiririko unaweza kujumuisha: takataka, bakteria, na metali nzito. Sanduku za Mimea ni vipanzi vinavyonasa na kuchuja mtiririko, kwa kawaida ambao hutoka kwenye paa za majengo. Masanduku ya mimea yana nafasi zilizomo ya ambazo huruhusu kukimbia kuzuiwa. Mimea inayoishi ndani ya masanduku ya mimea husaidia kuchuja sumu inayopatikana kwenye mtiririko na kustawi nje ya usambazaji wa maji. Hii huweka mimea furaha na hii husaidia kuzuia mafuriko na uchafuzi wa maji.
Lami za Kufyonza Joto, pia hujulikana kama Lami Zinazopitika, ni barabara ambazo zimejengwa kwa saruji au lami au kwa kutumia lami ambazo zimetenganishwa sawasawa. Hii hutoa udhibiti wa maji ya dhoruba na kupunguza joto linalohifadhiwa kwenye lami. Hii ni muhimu kwa sababu Nairobi inapitia "Athari ya Kisiwa cha Joto Mijini" katika maeneo yake yenye msongamano. Huu ndio wakati ardhi ya asili inabadilishwa na lami na joto huhifadhiwa kwenye lami. Hii huangaza juu ili kuongeza joto la eneo la mijini. Udhibiti wa maji ya dhoruba husaidia kudhibiti kiwango cha mtiririko na maji ambayo yanakusanywa juu ya lami. Hii husaidia kuzuia mafuriko na uchafuzi wa maji.
Upandaji Miti ni njia rahisi na mwafaka ya kutekeleza miundombinu ya kijani katika maeneo ya mijini. Upandaji miti pia husaidia kupunguza "Athari ya Kisiwa cha Joto Mjini" kwa kuunda mwavuli ambao hutoa kivuli kinachosaidia kudhibiti joto na kuchuja maji ya mvua. Miti pia husaidia kuchuja mtiririko wa maji kwa kuloweka sumu, kama vile mafuta, na kuizuia kuchafua usambazaji wa maji. Miti pia husaidia kuchuja hewa ili kutoa oksijeni safi kwa kumeza kaboni dioksidi na vichafuzi vingine vya hewa.

Cache on a stick

COASt, an acronym for "cache on a stick", is a packaging standard for modules containing SRAM used as an L2 cache in a computer. COASt modules look like somewhat oversized SIMM modules. These modules were somewhat popular in the Apple and PC platforms during early to mid-1990s, but with newer computers cache is built into either the CPU or the motherboard. COASt modules decoupled the motherboard from its cache, allowing varying configurations to be created. A low-cost system could run with no cache, while a more expensive system could come equipped with 512 KB or more cache. Later COASt modules were equipped with pipelined-burst SRAM.
The standard was originally defined by Motorola to be between 4.33 and 4.36 inches (110 and 111 mm) wide, and between 1.12 and 1.16 inches (28 and 29 mm) high. It could be found in many Apple Macintosh in the early-to-mid-90s, but disappeared as the Mac moved to the PowerPC platform.
Intel also used the COASt standard for their Pentium systems, where it could be found as late as 1998 in Pentium MMX systems utilizing Intel chipsets such as 430VX and 430TX. Later, Intel combined this architecture with the CPU and created the Slot 1 CPU cartridge which contained both the CPU and separate cache chips.
The slot that the COASt module plugged into was named "CELP", or "card edge low profile", referring to the small circuit board and the conductors on its edge. It had 80 contacts on each side of a circuit board (for a total of 160), spaced 0.050" apart, plus an identification notch between contacts 42 and 43.
COASt modules provided either 256K or 512K of direct-mapped cache, organized as 8192 or 16384 lines of 32 bytes. A 64-bit data bus allowed the cache line to be transferred in a 4-cycle burst.
The modules contained 256K or 512K of fast pipeline burst SRAM, plus 8 or 11 bits of even faster static RAM per line to store the cache tags. (The module provides pins for 11 lines, but many motherboards and modules provided only 8.) Some variants (illustrated to the right) placed the tag RAM on the motherboard and only the main cache RAM was on the module.
Consider the 256K module first. An 8-bit tag allows caching memory up to 256 times the cache size, or 64 MiB. An 11-bit tag supports up to 512 MiB. Each cache line also has a valid bit and a dirty bit, stored in the cache controller. (16 Kbits, or 2 Kbytes, total size.)
A 512K module contains twice as many cache lines, and so requires one fewer tag bit to support the same cacheable memory size. The leftover tag bit is instead used to store the cache line dirty bit, and all 16 Kbits in the cache controller are used for valid bits.
पद्मासन

हे आसन घालून बसल्यानंतर हात व पाय यांची रचना कमळाच्या पाकळ्यांप्रमाणे भासते म्हणून या आसनाला पद्मासन असे म्हणतात. यांस कमलासन असेही नाव आहे.
लाभ: हे आसन रोज केल्याने स्मरणशक्ती वाढते. मन एकाग्र होऊन चित्त स्थिर होते. मानसिक आरोग्य सुधाण्यासाठी हे आसन रामबाण आहे.पचनक्रिया सुधारते.
अर्धपद्मासन

अर्धपद्मासन हे एक योगासन आहे. हे आसन करताना पायाची व हाताची स्थिती ही पिंडीच्या आकाराची होते व या आसनात शरीराच्या अर्ध्या भागाकडे बघायचे असते म्हणून याला अर्धपद्मासन असे म्हणतात.
धाराशिव लेणी

धाराशिव लेणी हा मराठवाड्यातील धाराशिव (उस्मानाबाद) गावाजवळचा प्राचीन लेणीसमूह आहे. धाराशिव पासून ५ कि.मी. अंतरावर शैव लेणी आहेत. त्यांना 'चांभार लेणी' असेही म्हणतात.
ही लेणी धाराशिव शहराजवळ ६ व्या शतकात बालाघाट डोंगररांगेत कोरलेली आहेत. बौद्ध, हिंदू, जैन अशी ११ लेणी येथे आढळतात. बऱ्याच ठिकाणी हिंदू किंवा सनातन धर्मीय लोकांनी आपल्या देव दैवतांची मूर्तीरूपे कोरून ठेवलेली आजही पाहायला मिळतात. मुख्यत्वे शिव, विष्णू ह्या बहुप्रिय देवांची पाषाणात कोरलेली लेणी पहावयास मिळतात.
येथे सात लेणी असून पहिल्या लेण्यात सामग्री आढळते. दुसरे लेणे मुख्यतः वाकाटक शैलीतील आहे. मुख्य दालन ८० चौरस फूट लांब असून तेथे बौद्ध भिख्खूंसाठी १४ निवारा गृहे आहेत. गाभाऱ्यात पद्मासन अवस्थेतील बुद्ध मूर्ती आहे. तिसरे लेणे पहिल्या लेण्याप्रमाणेच आहे. बाकी लेणी जैन सदृश्य आहेत.
धाराशिवच्या ईशान्येस २० कि.मी अंतरावर प्रसिद्ध अशी सात जैन लेणी आहेत. दुसऱ्या लेण्यात आठ स्तंभ आणि पाच प्रवेशद्वारे आहेत. दोन्ही बाजूस २२ खोल्या असून गर्भगृहात भगवान पार्श्वनाथ तीर्थंकर यांची भव्य प्रतिमा आहे. करकंडचरिऊ नामक जैन ग्रंथात या लेण्यांचे वर्णन आढळते.
धाराशिव लेणीवर बौद्ध व जैन दावा करतात. परंतु जेम्स बर्गस यांच्या महाराष्ट्रातील १२०० लेण्यावरील संशोधनानुसार धाराशिव लेणी इ.स. ५ व्या शतकात बौद्ध लेणी होती. नंतर १२ व्या शतकात त्यातील काही लेणी जैन लेण्यांमध्ये परावर्तित केली गेली आहेत.
पेशवाईच्या काळात या लेण्यांमध्ये हरी नारायण नामक एका सत्पुरुष तपश्चर्या करीत होते, असे समजते. या संप्रदायाचा एक मठही धाराशिवमध्ये आहे.
योगासन

शरीरातील सांधे लवचीक बनविण्यासाठी, शरीर निरोगी राखण्यासाठी, अंतर्गत अवयवांना मर्दन होण्यासाठी, शरीराचा आकार बांधेसूद राखण्यासाठी आणि मन शांत व एकाग्र करण्यासाठी केलेली शरीराची विशिष्ट प्रकारची आकृती म्हणजे योगासन. माणसाच्या पाठीच्या हालचाली तीन प्रकारच्या असतात. वरच्या दिशेने ताणले जाणे, डाव्या किंवा उजव्या बाजूला पीळ देणे आणि पुढे किंवा मागे झुकणे. पुढे दिलेल्या योगासनांच्या नियमित सराव केल्याने पाठीच्या वर दिलेल्या हालचालींना उपयोगी पडणारे स्नायू सक्षम होतात.कोणत्याही प्रकाराचे आजार होत नाही.
यातली काही योगासने कुठेही आणि कधीही करता येतात. फक्त तत्पूर्वी ती तज्ज्ञांच्या मार्गदर्शनाखाली शिकणे आवश्यक आहे.
प्राचीन भारतीय चिकित्सापद्धतीतील योगासने ही अष्टांगयोगातील तिसरी पायरी होय.
पतंजली ऋषींच्या अष्टांग योगांपैकी एक अंग आसन आहे. योगसूत्रातच आसनाचे वर्णन' स्थिरं सुखम् आसनम्' असे केले आहे. योग साधनेतील आसन अचल व सुखकारक अपेक्षित आहे. ते तसे असण्यासाठी शरीर आधी-व्याधी रहित प्राकृतिक असणे आवश्यक आहे. काही योगासने नियमित केली असता व इतर अंगांचा अभ्यास केला तर आसन सिद्ध होऊ शकते.
योगासने करताना काही सोपे नियम लक्षात ठेवल्यास, आसने करणे सोपे होईल व कुठलाही दोष उद्भवणार नाही. उलट आसनांमुळे शरीर व्याधी रहित होऊन नैसर्गिक अवस्थेत अधिक कार्यक्षम राहील.
आसनांचा अभ्यास सुरू करण्यापूर्वी सूक्ष्म व्यायाम जरूर करावा. त्यामुळे स्नायू, मज्जातंतू व हाडांचे सांधे मोकळे होवून हालचाली सुलभ होतील व आसनस्थिती जमण्यास सोपे होईल.
नवशिक्यांना, बरेच दिवसांच्या अंतराने आसने करणाऱ्याना व पहिल्यांदाच आसने करताना, अंतिम आसनसस्थितीत जास्त वेळ राहता येत नाही, अशांनी आसनस्थिती सोडून सावकाश पूर्वस्थितीत यावे व हेच आसन तीन-चार वेळा करावे. एकदा आसन व्यवस्थित जमू लागल्यानंतर, आसन एकदाच करावे आणि दीर्घ श्वासोच्छ्वास करत अधिक वेळ आसनस्थितीत राहावे.
कुठलेही आसन करताना, सर्व हालचाली सावकाश कराव्यात. त्यामुळे स्नायू, हाडांचे सांधे व मज्जारज्जूंवर अनावश्यक ताण येणार नाही. आसनांमुळे शरीरात प्राणशक्‍तीचा संचार व संचय होतो, प्राणवायूचा पुरवठा आवश्यक त्या प्रमाणात अवयवांना होतो व शरीरातील दोष बाहेर पडतात. शरीर नैसर्गिक अवस्थेत येते व दिवसभर कामाला उत्साह वाटतो.
सकाळी आसने शौच-मुखमार्जन करून अनशापोटी करावीत. संध्याकाळी करायची असल्यास दुपारच्या जेवणानंतर चार-पाच तासाने करावीत. आसने केल्यानंतर अर्धा ते एक तास काही खाऊ अथवा पिऊ नये. वरील नियम पाळल्यास आसने उत्तम जमू लागतील व लाभ निश्चित होईल.
पद्मासन, वज्रासन, पश्चिमोत्तानासन, अर्धमच्छेंद्रासन, हलासन, पवनमुक्ताआस, भुजंगासन, धनुरासन, ताडासन, वृक्षासन, वगैरे.

मन

जाणीव व बुद्धी यांच्यामुळे घडणाऱ्या ज्ञान, विचार, मत, स्मरणशक्ती, भावना, कल्पनाशक्ती, तर्कशक्ती, चेतना या गोष्टी ज्या ठिकाणी होतात त्या ठिकाणाला मन असे म्हणतात. या सर्व गोष्टी या मेंदूद्वारे होणाऱ्या प्रक्रिया आहेत. प्राचीन भारतीय ग्रंथांमध्ये व तत्त्वज्ञानामध्ये मनाचा सखोल अभ्यास करण्यात आला आहे. मन हे राजासारखे असावे पण मनावर नियंत्रण हवे. मनातील सर्व काही बोलण्यासाठी समोर माणूस असून उपयोगाचे नाही तर त्या माणसाला ही जागृत मन असावे.
मानवी मन ही या जगात सर्वात अनाकलनीय अशी गोष्ट आहे. मन मोकाट मोकाट ही बहिणाबाई चौधरी यांची कविता त्यात त्यांनी मनाची चंचल अवस्था प्रकट केली आहे.
याबाबत एक श्लोक असा आहे:
सदाचारेण सर्वदा शुद्धं भवति मानसम् | निर्मलंच विशुद्धंच मानसं देवमंदिरम् ||
अर्थ: सर्वदा चांगले आचरण केल्याने मन शुद्ध होते. असे निर्मळ व विशुद्ध मन हे (जणू) देवाचे मंदिरच आहे. मानाने वागा मनाने कृती करा पण मन षड्रिपू ने बांधलं असेल तर तथाकथित योगाभ्यास करूनच पवित्रता धारण होईल. काम, क्रोध, लोभ, मोह, मद आणि मत्सर या सहा भावनांना षड्रिपू (सहा शत्रू, सूचना: डचा पाय मोडावा) असे म्हणतात.
या भावनांमुळे मन अशांत होते. मन एकाग्र करण्यात यांमुळे अडचणी येतात.
१. काम म्हणजे अति व अनैतिक लैंगिक भावना.(इत्यादि कामना) २. क्रोध म्हणजे राग.(गुस्सा,चड़चिढाहट) ३. लोभ म्हणजे एखाद्या गोष्टीचा हव्यास, मिळविण्याची इच्छा, अतीव प्रेम.(लालच) ४. मोह म्हणजे अज्ञानामुळे एखाद्या क्षणभंगुर गोष्टीशी मन संलग्न करणे, गुंतविणे.(आकर्षण,फळ आकर्षणामुळे कार्यरत) ५. मद म्हणजे गर्व, अति अभिमान.(घमंड,अहंकार) ६. मत्सर म्हणजे द्वेष, जळावू वृत्ती, दुसऱ्याची भरभराट, प्रगती सहन न होणे.(ईर्ष्या,जलन)
मनाचे वर्णन दयाराम ह्या हिंदी संतांनी खालील प्रकारे केले आहे:
मन लोभी,मन लालची,मन लंपट, मन चोर | मनके मतें न चालिये, पलक पलक मन और ||
शहंशहा नावाच्या शायराने मनाच्या चंचलतेचे असे वर्णन केले आहे:
बालक मन और वानरा,कबहुं न रे निचंत | बाल और वानर सोत है,यह सोवत में भी उडन्त ||
अर्थ:बालक मन व वानर हे कधीच चुपचाप बसत नाही.बालक व वानर झोपल्यास चुपचाप राहतात पण मन हे झोपेतच उड्डाण भरते.
मेंदूला एकाच विषयावर केंद्रित करण्याकरिता डोळे व कान या मेंदूच्या आणि पर्यायान मनाच्या खिडक्या बंद कराव्या लागतील. बंद याचा अर्थ झोपेत डोळे व कान बंद असतात तसे नव्हे तर या २ इंद्रियांना सर्वशक्तीनिशी त्या विषयावर केंद्रित केलं पाहिजे .अर्थात पाचही ज्ञानेंद्रियांना एकाच विषयावर केंद्रित केले जाते. उदा: आवडता खेळ, डान्स, चित्रकला इ. आपल्याला काय व्हायचं?, लोखंड कि लोहचुंबक?, यशवान, किर्तीमान, ऐश्वर्यसंपन्न कि अपयशी, दरिद्री, दुःखी? ते आपणच ठरवायचं . आपले मन जेथे रमते ते काम आपण नेहमी करावे.
Shirshasana

Shirshasana (Sanskrit: शीर्षासन, IAST: śīrṣāsana) Salamba Shirshasana, or Yoga Headstand is an inverted asana in modern yoga as exercise; it was described as both an asana and a mudra in classical hatha yoga, under different names. It has been called the king of all asanas. Its many variations can be combined into Mandalasana, in which the legs are progressively swept from one variation to the next in a full circle around the body.
The name Salamba Shirshasana comes from the Sanskrit words सालम्ब Sālamba meaning "supported", शीर्ष, Śīrṣa meaning "head", and आसन, Āsana meaning "posture" or "seat".
The name Śīrṣāsana is relatively recent; the pose itself is much older, but had other names and purposes. Like other inversions, it was practised as Viparita Karani, described as a mudra in the 15th century Hatha Yoga Pradipika and other classical texts on haṭha yoga. Viparita Karani, "the Inverter", holds the head down and the feet up for hours at a time, so as to cause gravity to retain the prana. The practice is claimed by the Dattatreya Yoga Shastra to destroy all diseases. to increase the digestive fire, and to banish signs of ageing. The pose is described and illustrated in halftone as Viparita Karani in the 1905 Yogasopana purvacatusca.
Hemacandra's 11th century Yogaśāstra names it Duryodhanāsana ("Duryodhana's pose") or Kapālīkarana ("head technique"), while the 18th century Joga Pradīpikā calls it Kapālī āsana, head posture; it is number 17 of the set of 84 asanas described and illustrated there. However, the 19th century Sritattvanidhi uses the name Śīrṣāsana as well as Kapālāsana, while the Malla Purana, a 13th-century manual for wrestlers, names but does not describe 18 asanas including Śīrṣāsana.
In the Supported Headstand (Salamba Shirshasana), the body is completely inverted, and held upright supported by the forearms and the crown of the head. In his Light on Yoga, B. K. S. Iyengar uses a forearm support, with the fingers interlocked around the head, for the basic posture Shirshasana I and its variations; he demonstrates a Western-style tripod headstand, the palms of the hands on the ground with raised elbows, for Shirshasana II and III; and other supports for further variants. Iyengar names and illustrates ten variants in all, as well as several preparatory and transitional poses.
The yoga headstand is nicknamed "king" of all the asanas. A variety of other asanas can be used to build the required upper body strength and balance.
Shirshasana, alongside Sarvangasana and Padmasana, is one of the asanas most often reported as the cause of an injury.
Shirshasana permits many variations, including:
Mandalasana, Circle pose, is not a single variation but a sequence of movements in Shirshasana in which the legs move in a full circle around the body from one of these headstand variations to the next.
Matrimandir

The Matrimandir is an edifice of spiritual significance for practitioners of integral yoga, in the centre of Auroville established by the Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. It is called Soul of the City (French: L'âme de la ville) and is situated in a large open space called Peace.
The Matrimandir took 37 years to build, from the laying of the foundation stone at sunrise on 21 February 1971 - the Mother's 93rd birthday - to its completion in May 2008. It is in the form of a huge sphere surrounded by twelve petals. The Geodesic dome is covered by golden discs and reflects sunlight, which gives the structure its characteristic radiance. Inside the central dome is a meditation hall known as the inner chamber - this contains the largest optically-perfect glass globe in the world. The Matrimandir, and its surrounding gardens in the central Peace Area, is open to the public by appointment.
The four main pillars that support the structure of Matrimandir, and carry the Inner Chamber, have been set at the four main directions of the compass. These four pillars are symbolic of the four aspects of the mother as described by Sri Aurobindo, and are named after these four aspects.
Alo Yoga

Alo Yoga is an American premium athletic apparel retailer headquartered in Los Angeles. It was founded in 2007 by Danny Harris and Marco DeGeorge.
Alo Yoga was founded in 2007 in Los Angeles by Danny Harris and Marco DeGeorge, childhood friends who had become interested in yoga as a treatment for anxiety and a back injury respectively. The name stands for "air, land, and ocean". The brand rose to prominence when celebrities who received free products such as Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Bella Hadid wore Alo in paparazzi photographs.
Alo's headquarters in Beverly Hills feature yoga studios, gyms, and other amenities. As of October 2023, the company has more than 50 brick-and-mortar stores (which it calls "sanctuaries"), which feature yoga studios and cafés.
Alo has expanded beyond athletic wear. A skincare brand, Alo Glow System, was launched in December 2020. At New York Fashion Week in September 2022, Alo introduced the Aspen Collection, a luxury line of ski wear and non-fungible tokens. The company began selling sneakers in May 2023. The focus on the sneaker changed in March 2024, and is now marketed as a recovery sneaker, which aims to support balance and pressure points for all-day recovery. Its next luxury line, the Alo Atelier formalwear collection, was launched in October 2023.
Alo promotes mindfulness and posts images of yoga practitioners on its Instagram page. The company became the "official wellness partner" of New York Fashion Week in September 2021, holding yoga workshops and other events.
