Ratha yatra locally known as 'Kang or Kang-Chingba', is held on the second new moon of Inga (June-July) for ten days and is one of the main festivals of Hindus of Manipur. *Shree Govindajee Temple (Konung): A historic Vaishnavite centre, adjoining the Royal Palace of Manipur's former Maharajas, the Govindajee Temple is a simple yet beautiful structure. Twin domes, a paved courtyard and a raised large congregation hall form a perfect backdrop for priests who descend the steps, to accept offerings from devotees in the courtyard. The shrines of Krishna and Balaram and Jagannath flank the two sides of the presiding deity.

Creativity as talent

Too many people believe that creativity is a talent with which some people are born and the rest ca only envy. This is a negetive attitude that is completely mistaken.
Creativity is a skill that can be learned, developed and applied. It is as much a skill as skiing, playing tennis, cooking or learning others.... Everyone can learn such skills. At the end not everyone is going to be equally good at these skills. Some people cook better than others. some people play tennis better than others. But everyone can learn the skill. And everyone can seek to get better through practice.... more practice and more practice.
