    This is to all people who say why do we need to learn English when our mother tongue.... and so on... It is always good to absorb other cultures and languages so as to broaden your horizon and reach in this world. Yes, it is not a benchmark for intelligence, but sure is for expression of thought to other worlds. Every person who has mastered this abilty went famous worldwide, be it Ravi Shankar, Satyjit Ray, Mahatma Gandhi, Sadhguru!! You name it. So Kids, learn new things and absorb everything and everyone without any prejudice! 🙏

    Satyajit Ray received the Ramon Magsaysay Award long time back and H.H.The Dalai Lama got the same award today. What a coincidence. One of Asia's highest honors, reversing the spirit demonstrated by people and organizations through altruistic and selfless dedication to the people of Asia. Asians who stand out in their profession and have a reputation for voluntarily serving others without seeking public awareness are eligible for the Ramon Magsaysay Award.

    My dear Bengali elite community, I just found out that the name Somnolin pill invented by Satyajit Ray's Professor Shonku is being used by several firms for business, they even put trade mark (TM) on it!!! Metagenics, PromoFarma, Bravacorp. I am furious to see this. All his inventions and discoveries are so unique, Miracurall, Annihilin and many more. Perhaps those were not protected by copyright. But still, isn't it theft and hence against the law? Is there anything we can do to report this shameless act? Where to send our complain to? Please tell me.

      That's not how "copyright strike" works in legal terms you see!
      You have to invent those products to have a exclusive right on those; you can't get rights on your imaginative fictional products or their names.
      But yes if it's really such thing happening out there,they should had mention the philosophy of nomenclature somewhere; but again how can you teach "Morality 101" to such brute corporates!
