Chandipur Beach in Orissa

I had chance to visit chandipur beach. It was an amazing trip. I had seen many beaches in south side (poombukar, Nagapattinam, Velankanni, marina beach...etc).But Chandipur is a different one. It has its unique behavior while comparing to other beaches in the world. Really it was an unbelievable experience for me.

unique about the beach is that the sea water recedes about 5 kms during low tide and advances to the shore line again during high tide, each day.This gives one the opportunity to walk into its shallow depths.This peaceful beach resort with sand dunes green with wild creepers and Casuriana trees whistling in the breeze has a special charm.

We walked arond 2km inside the beach.We went around 4.30PM,On that time the sea water recedes inside.Look at the image how far the peoples are walking into the beach.

please look at the sand color in that beach.

Chandipur is an ideal beach resort of Orissa it is situated at a distance of 200 km from Cuttack and 230 km from Bhubaneswar.

PREM RAWAT FOUNDATION

Prem Rawat, known also by the honorary title Maharaji, has traveled the world for more than four decades, inspiring people to find peace within.

His message is simple and profound. Speaking at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok, Thailand, he expressed, “Peace needs to be in everyone’s life. Of all the things we have tried in this world, there is one thing we have never given a chance. That one thing is peace. If we want to hope for something, maybe we could hope in our heart that peace will come in our life. The peace we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace.”

For those who wish to make peace a reality in their life, he offers inspiration and guidance. “What I offer people is not just talk,” he says, “but a way to go inside and savor the peace that is within.”

Born in India, he started addressing audiences at the age of three and gave his first published address when he was only four. At eight, he started presenting his message of peace throughout the Indian subcontinent. At thirteen, he was invited to speak in London and Los Angeles. Since then, more than 10 million people in over 250 cities and 50 countries around the world have come to him for inspiration and guidance.

The dissemination of his message, which is made available in more than 88 countries and 70 languages, is entirely supported by voluntary contributions and the sale of related materials. He supports himself and his family through independent means.


How is it that we, as individuals, lose peace?
Each one of us has an invisible thief that follows us wherever we go. What does the thief do? He robs us. Neither doors, nor locks, nor alarms can stop him. This thief does not take money or clothes. He robs us of the most valuable assets we have. He robs us of joy, peace, contentment. He robs us of understanding. He robs us of all those things that are much more important than anything else.
When we say, “I want peace in my life, but . . . I will pursue it later,” we give permission to this invisible thief to come in. This is his signal. All he has to hear is, “Not now,” and the thief says, “Here is someone I can rob, because he is not protecting his most valuable asset. He is squandering it. He is throwing it away.” And in that moment, we are robbed of what is most important to us.

Does everyone have an innate desire to seek and experience peace?
Within everyone there is something that yearns for peace. In times of total chaos, there is a yearning for peace. When there is mistrust, there is a yearning for trust. When we are in pain, something within seeks a glimmer of hope, of relief.
A human being needs love—to love and to feel love. The question is, what is going to be the source of that love? A human being needs to trust, but what is going to be the source of that trust? What can be trusted that is trustworthy, that will provide the support that is needed in one's life? Similarly, there is no doubt that a human being needs peace. In fact, there is very little anyone can do about that. This is a thirst that is innate to all human beings. The question is, what is going to be the source of that peace?

How does one come to understand the peace you are speaking of?
Peace is not necessary in the mind; it is necessary in the heart. The mind and intellect cannot capture peace. They have a different function.
Peace, joy, and true happiness are not subjects for thought. They can only be felt. There is a feeling behind being alive. There are no explanations for it. It is the feeling that one has to get to—because that is where there is comfort, that is where there is joy, that is where there is satisfaction. It is in that feeling that we need to live our lives. Somehow, we think that we need an explanation of what peace is, but peace cannot be explained; it can only be felt.
Fulfillment needs to be felt. When we are fulfilled, something inside of us says, “Yes, I am fulfilled.” For a thirsty person, not even a thousand pictures of other people drinking water will do any good. Only drinking water will do.

Objects relationship in oops

In Object Oriented concepts there are two type relations which exists in between two objects.

1. IS A Relationship
2. HAS A Relationship

Inheritance and “is a”

We can understand this better by considering the “is a” idea

A subclass object “is a” superclass object.However, some extra instance variables and methods may have been added and some other methods may have been changed
Note that “is a” is a one way operation.Subclass “is a” superclass (specific "is a" general)With modifications / additions Superclass is NOT a subclass (general not "is a" specific Missing some properties
Ex: Bird “is a” Animal
Human “is a” Animal
Fish “is a” Animal


Bird, Human and Fish are all Animals
However, an Animal is not necessarily a Bird, Human or Fish

HAS A relationship

In OOP, Has-A relationships are relationships where one object contains, or controls another object. It is contrasted with an Is-A relationship.
Objects having Has-A relationships are models for composition, or an object being contained inside of the parent object.

Examples of Has a Relationships:
A Person object has-a(n) Address Object.

A Teacher Object has-a Student Object.
A Car Object has-a Tire Object.
A Document Object has-a Keyword or Tag Object.
Generically, an Object has-a DAO or Gateway Object
In these examples, you notice that the objects are not related in a parent-child type of relationship. They (typically) cannot respond to the same type of events or messages.
Contrast this with the Is-A relationship that are models for Inheritance.

Object Oriented Programming

Object-Oriented Programming consists of 3 primary ideas:
Data Abstraction and Encapsulation
Operations on the data are considered to be part of the data type
We can understand and use a data type without knowing all of its implementation details.Neither how the data is represented nor how the operations are implemented
We just need to know the interface (or method headers) – how to “communicate” with the object Compare to functional abstraction with methods.
Inheritance
Properties of a data type can be passed down to a sub-type – we can build new types from old ones.We can build class hierarchies with many levels of inheritance
Polymorphism
Operations used with a variable are based on the class of the object being accessed, not the class of the variable.Parent type and sub-type objects can be accessed in a consistent way.
Constructors
These are special instance methods that are called when an object is first created.
They are the only methods that do not have a return value (not even void).
They are typically used to initialize the instance variables of an object.
Accessors
These methods are used to access the object in some way without changing it
Usually used to get information from it.
Mutators
Used to change the object in some way
Since the instance variables are usually private, we use mutators to change the object in a specified way without needing to know the instance variables
B.setCharAt(0, ‘j’); // B == “jello there”
B.delete(5,6); // B == “jello here”
B.insert(6, “is “); // B == “jello is here”;
These methods change the contents or properties of the StringBuffer object
