Prakash’s Quotes

“योजना आनंद की जननी है "--- आप प्लानिंग करिये , सोचिये , जरुरी हो तो सुधार करिये और फिर काम करिये -- आप खुद ब खुद आनंदित रहने लगेंगे !
आनंदित रहने के लिए कुछ न कुछ समय तो आपको अपने आप को देना ही पड़ेगा !!

"कठपुतली " का एक महान सन्देश !

पढ़िए "कठपुतली " को -- एक एक शब्द आपको जोड़ेगे -- हर वाक्य में एक सन्देश देती ये पुस्तक समसामयिक दृश्टिकोण से अत्यंत उपयोगी है !”
