Safari Magazine – March 2017 Issue – Gujarati Edition – Cover Page

The cover page is qutie attractive and it suits fully to the magazine, especially it’s genre. There were a few past issues where cover page was giving an impression of a “Nature special” magazine. Since a few issues, there are more creative cover pages are published.

An advance Robot holding a gadget makes the cover page attractive as well.

Editorial:

The editorial of this issue talks about very important subject. While talking about the success of ISRO’s mission to launch 104 satellites in one shot (using PSLV), which is a world record, the editor says that we always need to keep the politics and science separate from each other. If political authorities keep dictating things or even interfering in functions of Science and Research Organisations, they will eventually lose the edge. The editor mentions that there were times when USSR was the biggest competitor to USA in terms of Space and Research stuff and now a days we don’t see computers or any other remarkable products made in Russia. This downfall is a guide for all the countries of the world to let Science Organisations do their work. Very true. How many prominent magazines or newspapers raise such points?

Let us talk about some of the articles found in the magazine…

Shrimad Rajchandra’s Influence on Mahatma Gandhi

Late Raychandbhai who later became respected fellow named Shrimad Rajchandra is considered as a very prominent figure, especially in Jain community. He was (and is) considered as an awaken soul. He have some of the unbelievable abilities. He was a “Shatavdhani” (who can focus on 100 things at a point of time, without missing anything). Of course, only a man with great qualities can influence Mahatma Gandhi.

We may got disagree with some of the decisions Gandhiji took, but we cannot deny the qualities he possessed or intentions he had.

The article explores the time when Gandhiji was just Mohandas Gandhi and was first became victim of “hate people with dark skin” philosophy of British. It was the time when he have started moving ahead in his professional life also. How, his communication with Srimad Rajchandra helped him in staying focused on his goal and motivated him to “follow the truth” regardless of circumstances or situation; is explored in this article nicely.

The article also refers to the movement in “Champaran” and how Gandhiji’s actions there have remarkable impacts on cruel British rulers.

Overall a nice article. The young generation needs to read to know two things.
1. The spiritual stuff is not a myth, it is a way to stretch you abilities beyond boundaries.
2. The British Rule was a really dark era, and the people who sacrificed their lives for the country to get it free, did really remarkable job. Now it is our duty to make it what they have expected the motherland to be.

There is an article in the magazine which talks about three key events, historical, geographical and science, one each.
