Our World Tuesday

The Global Vipassana Pagoda as viewed from the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial in Sanjay Gandhi National Park.
Ref Wikipedia "The Global Vipassana Pagoda is built out of gratitude to the Buddha, his teaching and the community of monks practicing his teaching. Its traditional Burmese design is an expression of gratitude towards the country of Myanmar for preserving the practice of Vipassana. The shape of the pagoda is a copy of the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Myanmar. It is being built combining ancient Indian and modern technology to enable it to last for a thousand years"

Hutments being replaced by skyscrapers in Andheri, Mumbai.

P.S EDIT: In response to all those wondering about the fate of the people occupying those hutments - There are various schemes that are offered depending on how long these people have been occupying that land. Either they are offered apartments in a building there or offered compensation to shift elsewhere.

Fruit picking during the weekend in Bandra (East), a prime suburb of Mumbai. In the pic on the left spot the boy who has climbed the tree to pluck the juicy Jambul also know as Jamun. Bunches of Jambul can be seen in the pic on the right. The Jambul resembles a large berry and is oblong and ovoid. It is green when just appearing, pink as it matures, and shining crimson black when fully ripe.

The Magen David Synagogue at Byculla Synagogue was built in 1864 by the late David Sassoon who was the founder of the Sassoon empire in India. In the compound of the Synagogue there are two Jewish Schools which are run by the Sir Jacob Sassoon High School Trust and the E.E.E. Sassoon High School Trust, in which Jewish children were educated. With the paucity of Jewish students the Schools are open to all Communities, and at the moment, since the population around the vicinity are Muslims, almost 98% of the students are Muslims. In the compound we also have the Lady Rachel Free Dispensary which is run by the Trust, a doctor is employed to look after the poor and needy Jews who require medical aid.
