People say " Time is Money " ; I say " Time is the Biggest Gambler". One never knows what surprises it might throw on one's face... Nevertheless, It is always willing to Teach if one is ever-ready to learn! Good or Bad, afterall Lessons learnt are precious if one remembers them and apply in their lives. A very few actually realise the true importance of Time in context of self-realisation which is the most significant aspect of existence, lest most of us while away this precious human life being distracted by the apparent conditioning of this material world : the so-called-practical aspects of life. Ofcourse practical aspects ARE important but Spiritual aspect no less. More so when the contagious stress and discontent has engulfed most of this planet causing immense emotional upheavals too!
In fact a successful Human life lived well would tantamount to striking a good balance between the Practical, Emotional and Spiritual aspects of oneself ! This is only possible if one realises the strength of Time and awakens from sleep and slumber. Even after waking up, one needs to persevere walking on the path with great determination ; every moment taking step towards maintaining awareness of present because "Time is a Gambler"... Very Uncertain Indeed! Very uncertain!

Talk of anything and Everything under the sun and he amazingly goes on talking about it... From Spirituality to Meditation , from Sports to Politics, Mythology and History to International Relations to National Defence to the evergrowing list of latest advances and futuristic reviews, Hollywood to Bollywood... Talk about construction of Buildings to construction of Railways, Administration to Management to Law & Order, Rankings of Government Officials to the very minute details of Farming of seasonal crops and fruits, Manufacturing of medicines to Assorting of Diamonds to analysing the breeds of Race course Horses, from Geophysics to Mechanophysics to Metaphysics and not forgetting even the market prices of fruits and vegetables or the Bus numbers of a particular route (Although he travels only by his chauffeur driven car) which most of us might not be knowing. He is an all-rounder in a true sense... an absolute workaholic , he is a staunch believer in Time Management and positive approach to life. He hails from the Treausured Land of magnificent monuments and wide ranging flora and fauna - Orissa. He came to Bombay with an M.B;B.S. Degree alone, without any assets or family support, alone fought a long way of hardships for his rights and Today stands with pride being honoured as the "Son of India" & "Father of Tuberculosis Control in India". It is our privilege to have him as our Respected Teacher and Reverred Professor
- Emeritus Director Professor Dr K C Mohanty
Tough from outside, Tender and Soft within Heart,
Sometimes scold harshly and superficially to make us understand the difference between the Good and the Bad,
To choose between the Right and the Wrong,
To bring out the best in us;
Nurture our Souls with Love, Humanity and sculpt us from raw clay to perfect idols ,
I am fortunate to have been taken under your wings as your foster daughter and received your kind guidance and blessings in this journey of life!
Forever Indebted,
Racchana

A Man who walked His talk - Emeritus Dir. Prof. Dr K. C. Mohanty !
In Loving Memory of
Emeritus Dir. Prof. Dr. K. C. Mohanty
Inspiring life from 16th June 1940 - 1st June 2017
The Man who inspired,
The Man who forged ahead in life,
The Man who swam against the tide,
Is finally no more !
He kept only giving,
To all near and far !
Kept His sorrows to just himself,
Reason? - spread only happiness,
In this much harrowed world!
His knowledge of material and spiritual world,
Was deeper than oceans afar!
His ability to lead the masses was unmatchable!
His service to humanity was impeccable!
His only prayers to God,
Was to serve one and all ,
Till He breathed His last...
Indeed He was a Sainlty soul,
For He -
Gave without expectations...
Forgave without reservations...
Helped without hesitations...
Taught without limitations...
Loved without prejudices...
Lived like theres no tomorrow...
Laughed like He never had sorrows...
Blessed everyone impartially, Just like a Saint!
Guided people with best of His knowledge,
& to the best of their interests..
Helped everyone to the best of His capability!
Saved everyone from dangers,
While Himself standing in the storms!
Who never said no to anyone asking for help!
He was indeed rare of His kind,
A Man of His words,
Who would always walk His talk!!!
His life reflects many sacrifices He made,
To lead an honest and righteous life!
A Man above all trivialites of the mundane - from religion and caste to hatred, ill-will, jealousy or animosity !
A Man who practiced what he preached,
And kept teaching all -
That :
Work is Worship, Work is Religion, Work is Relaxation !
&
Movement is Life , Stagnation is Death!
Now finally He remains in our hearts,
As a loving and cherished memory,
Of all that He was !!!
He was surely God's Beloved Child,
His pure Soul has finally departed,
From this Materialistic world,
To rest in peace,
In the lap of Selfless Almighty God !
Love and Very High Regards and Respect Eternal
-His Loving daughter
Dr Racchana D Fadia
