Autism a word commonly heard today with so many myths revolving around it that creates a state of panic for the affected and the family members. Millions of people around the world are affected by Autism. Autism is nothing but a spectrum disorder. It is a complex neurobehavioral condition that results in difficulties in social interaction and developmental language and communications skills with rigid and repetitive behaviour.
An autism spectrum disorder is defined medically as “group of development disorders” that “includes a wide range of symptoms, skills, and levels of disability”. In 1 out of 68 people autism can be found. The common things in all types of autisms are the following characteristics:
Repetitive behaviours and limited interests
Symptoms that are usually found in the beginning years of life
Symptoms that affect the abilities to function properly in social aspects of life
Ongoing social issues that make it difficult to communicate with others
People who are autistic may either mildly have these symptoms or severely. The three types of autism spectrum disorders are as follows:
Autistic disorder
This type of spectrum is also known as “classic “ autism. People affected by this have significant language delays, social, and communication challenges, and unusual behaviours and interests. They are also affected by intellectual disabilities. It is the most common and most severe type of autism. These autistic people have issues with being touched by other people, perform restricted or repetitive behaviours, experience sensory overload and have issues in communication. The other types of autism have the same issues but this has these symptoms much more severely.

It is the milder type of autism spectrum disorder. They experience the same disorder as other autism cases but it is milder. People with this type of autism have unusual interests and behaviours and also experience social challenges. These symptoms tend to be most difficult, as they do not have issues with language or intellect. Thus it is the symptoms need to be sorted to help the autistic person.
Pervasive Developmental Disorder

This is also known as “atypical autism”. This type is characterized by the criteria of the other two types but does not have all the characteristics. The ones who are affected with PDD- NOS (Pervasive Developmental Disorder) experience mild and fewer symptoms. The ones affected with PDD- NOS suffer from social and communication challenges. They are the highest functioning autistic types and do not fit in any other category of autism spectrum disorders.
The three types of autism and understanding about it will help you to understand people affected by it in a better way and help them and their near and dear ones to live a better life.

My life has been Unique, to say the least. Where normal Lads are scared of Women and stay away from them, I have been Surrounded by the Ladies all my Life.
Hi, I am Kush and this is my Remarkable Story. I belong to a Joint Family. We boast a massive population of 25 people living in our house most of them being Girls. I had Nine Sisters growing up, and they taught me everything I know. Growing up in a house filled with Girls makes you a shade Expert on them.
From a Significantly Young Age, I discovered what to say and what not to Women. I learned from my Eccentric Aunts and later Sisters how to Foretell Mood Swings and how to cater to their Unique needs. In short from a young age, I was the Perfect Boyfriend material (not my words).
Hence, it should not come as a surprise that I was quite Popular with the Ladies throughout School and even now in College. Though sadly I Promptly fell in Love many times and each of them had many twists and turns in them.
I Present To you some Significant Experiences I had.
First Love
My first Love was My Teacher.
Typical to every Adolescent boy in the World my first Love was my Teacher. I undoubtedly remember the first day I saw her. Oh, what a Sight she was. I was in 6th standard sitting in my class when she walked in. Ms Joanne V Sullivan, even her name was Beautiful. Joanne Ma’am was our English Teacher.
The whole day after first setting eyes on her I naturally spent Daydreaming about her. She became my Sole reason for coming to School. Being a little forward and forewarned about Women it didn’t take me long before I was her Favourite Student in the class.
I regularly Complimented her; I Assisted her and the Solitary reason for my time in school became getting Praise from Joanne Ma’am. I remember one day I saw Charlie (my Best friend back then) speaking to Ma’am. This made me very Curious (and a little Jealous) as Miss had never spoken to him before.
He was sitting comfortably, eagerly Devouring my delicious lunch at Recess. I went up to him and asked, “how come you were talking to Ma’am.”
Charlie was taken aback, to say the least. He made a Face, before answering in his general Smug tone, “ why were you getting Jealous.” I genuinely wanted to Strangle the Shrewd look off his face but controlled myself. After much pleading and a Glorious promise to willingly share my Excellent lunch for the following month he ultimately answered.
“I started taking Tuitions from Ma’am. Ergo, I was talking to her.”
This was like a Beacon of renewed hope for me. You can’t imagine the astonishing Speed at which I sprinted towards the staffroom. I was so Overjoyed I missed a turn and smashed face-first into an Innocent girl.
“Don’t you see where you are going” She screamed?
I got up and Sprinted off without a second look at her. My Excitement not Damped a bit. I found Ma’am outside the staffroom.
“Kush what are you doing here” she seemed amazed to see me.
“Ma’am I want to Promptly join your tuition classes” I Babbled before losing the nerve “I just heard about them from Charlie. I want to Join.”
Ma’am looked at me with a strange look, “Ok here take my Number.” She tore a small piece off her diary.” You can come on Monday. That’s my next class. Charlie will tell you the proper address” she rumpled my hair and walked stealthily away missing the rare look of bliss this brought to my face.
“You don’t need Tuition.” My Mum thundered “that too in English, Definitely not.”
I stood fully dressed going for my First day of Classes with Ma’am while my mum Ranted at me Squandering my time. I repeatedly glanced at my watch. It was precisely 3:30 PM if I didn’t leave Promptly I would be late.
That my friends would not be a Pleasing Impression to portray on a Crush.
“Ok, Mum I Promise I’ll get 90% in English this term if you Allow me to go” I pleaded my case. “Also, none of my other Marks will come down.”
This seemed to Instantly get my Mum’s Attention. “Let him go if he Eagerly wants” my Dad chimed in.
This is how I began my daily Tuitions with my Crush, my First Love. We were 10 students in our batch. I was a late Entrant, so Ma’am Urged me to arrive half an hour early to make up for the lost Time. Initially, it was half an hour of Study but slowly it became an hour of Calking and Chatting with Ma’am.
I Loved every minute of my Time with Ma’am. She was Bubbly Cute and Caring. Ma’am taught me more about Life than Literature. She Enlightened me about the Society the Societal norms and everything. I enjoyed these Walks so much I started staying for a part two after the Tuition ended. This brought a fresh Debate at my home, but I didn’t Budge or regret my Choice.
For two Memorable Years, my One-sided charming Love Story blossomed with Ma’am. By class 8 I became her Main Confidant. One day I remember Ma’am and I were sitting by a Pond. The sun was about to set. The Radiant sky had a Beautiful Orange Glow. Both of us were keenly Enjoying the distant Chirping of active birds and Quaking of the returning Ducks.
Joanne Ma’am looked at me with a soft Smile, “I have some News for you.” I sat up straighter Bestowing my utmost Attention upon her. “I want you to meet Someone.”
“Who,” I asked. Surprise clear in my voice.
“Someone special” she answered Mysteriously.
The entire Class after that I was only Pondering over the identity of the Mysterious person. By the time the Tuition ended, I was ready to Pluck my hairs apart.
We went our routine walk. The silence was Palpable. I noticed we were on an unusual Route than usual. I was about to Ask when Miss took a turn and promptly entered a House. I followed her in Quietly.
From Inside, I could hear familiar sounds of Musical Laughter coming. I gradually entered the Room all to find my Ghastliest Nightmare. Ma’am was Hugging a man in the middle of the room. I was floored. I stood there like a Gilded Statue.
They ended their Hug, but the Man, the Vile Van had an arm around Miss’ waist.
“This is Kush. My best friend. And Kush this is David, my fiancé”. Ma’am introduced us.
Her words Scorched me to my core. That night I could not Sleep. I was Numb. For countless hours I stared Wistfully into the Impenetrable Darkness of the Windless night. It Mirrored my Heart’s Misery. Finally when feelings returned the first thing I felt was Wetness. I was Aloof to the fact that I had been Crying in Agony. This Realization brought forward the finality of my One-sided Love. This, in turn, led to more Tears. The Frigid Night inevitably passed in a continuous flow of Burning Tears and Heartache.
For the succeeding week, I was a Zombie at school. The sole reason for my Attendance had been Snatched off. I remember the next time I went for Tuition I was purposefully late by 10 minutes just to skip our Walk. I noted the look of Hurt on Ma’am’s face, but my Heartache made me Indifferent to it.
After the class, I bolted off without any Plausible Excuse. She didn’t stop me. This continued for a month before Ma’am Confronted me.
I was Bolting away when “Kush please stay back. I have something I want to Talk to you about.” I heard Ma’am. The Coldness in her voice Struck me to my core.
Miss smartly walked passed me as I Trudged behind her for our walk. We walked in Silence. My head was in shambles. I could not decide what to do what to say. Suddenly I noticed we were not on the Road anymore but in a Field.
The field was Glowing. On further Examination, I noticed Thousands of Fireflies flying about. It was a Heavenly scene. The lights were like little Stars shining all around us. Miss led me to a Rock, and we sat down.
“I know you are naturally Upset” she began with a Defeated voice. It Wound my Heart to hear her speak with such Misery. “I’m sorry”.
I felt a small Tear roll down my eye. We sat in silence looking at the Beauty surrounding us. The Darkness of the night and the Starry lights of the bugs produced an Ominous but exquisite scene.
“Ma’am, I am sorry.” I finally began. Miss Looked at me, “I should have never Crossed my Line. I am Ashamed of my Behaviour. You thought of me as a Reliable Friend and I could not Honour our enduring Friendship.”
I got up and Walked a little into the Light in hope of Enlightenment. The scenery was Captivating.
“I want to ask you Something.” I heard a distant Whisper.
I slowly faced Miss. She ambled closer, “Will you come to my Wedding?” She gently took my hand “It would mean a Mighty lot to me”.
I looked at the Hope, the small light of Hope in Ma’am’s eyes. I instantly decided that what may be I Sincerely Love her and I will do everything to give her Happiness.
“Obviously, I will be Scandalized if you don’t Invite me” I replied promptly with Mock anger. Miss voluntarily gave a small Soul lifting laugh.
Again that Night I could not sleep. But this time I had a Noble Purpose. I had made a Promise to myself. A promise to make Miss Happy and I intended to withhold it.
The next 2 months saw me Visiting Ma’am quite often. I was in charge of many Wedding Rituals. Ma’am was Married on 6th October at 11 am in our field. She had decided it would remain her Special Place. I was Bestowed upon the Honour of walking Ma’am down the Aisle with her Father on the other side.
It was a Magnificent Ceremony. The Bride and Groom were in Love, and it showed. Their sealing Kiss Bathed the Ceremony with Glorious Love.
Before Miss Left for her Honeymoon, she led me aside and Hugged me.
“Bless you for everything you did. I know you genuinely Love me.” She whispered in my ear. “I promise you will Invariably find a way better Innocent Girl than me. But I want you to Cherish our Relationship.”
She slowly Straightened and looked into my eyes, “I want you to never change.” She gently inclined forwards and tenderly Kissed me on the plump cheek. “And I urge you to Study.”
It has been Years since that Memorable day. I am still in good contact with Ma’am But the last Smile she willingly gave me before getting into her Car is etched in my heart. I can never forget that.
That’s all I can write for today. However, Don’t worry my miseries do not end so soon. Next Month I’ll Narrate the Tale of a Massive Heartbreak. This one will be more Relatable, I promise.
Please Comment. Also Share, my misery may Help Someone Else. You Never Know.
Google’s Chrome web browser has made its way to become the world’s top web browser. I personally prefer and recommend chrome to anyone using the internet. It is feature loaded, clean and safe. If you are reading this article then, there are many chances that you also use Google Chrome either in your phone or PC/Mac. Google has also released its developer version on the Play Store.
The Chrome developer brings the features that are in the testing stage to the practical use of developers. The features which will release later in Chrome can be found in Chrome Dev. This time the Chrome Dev has got a new revamp. The new UI is different from the chrome everyone is used to, but at the same time, its more feature loaded. The Google Chrome Dev shows how future updates of Chrome will look like. This article also has a trick for Chrome users to make their experience better.
Chrome Dev: What’s changed?
The Chrome Dev has got a total to revamp. It has a got a bar in the bottom of the window while the buttons on the top bar are removed. Now, the top bar only shows the website’s URL. The bar at the bottom has 5 buttons, which are home, share, search, tabs, and options (three dots icon). With this, you don’t have to take your finger to the top of the screen much because most of the options are at the bottom. This makes it perfect for smartphones with a big screen. Now, let’s see what these buttons on the bottom bar have to offer.
The home button takes you back to the google search page which is the homepage of chrome. The home page hasn’t changed, it’s the same with a google search and recommended articles.
The share option lets you share the webpage’s link on various platform. You can also use it to copy the webpage’s link or to print the site.
So that you don’t have to take your finger to the top of the screen every time you want to change the URL or search term, you can use the search button on the bar, which does the same work as tapping the URL bar.
Next button is the tabs button, which shows you how many tabs you have opened, this screen listed is called the tab switcher. Clicking the button will show you the tabs you’ve opened in a vertical scroll. When in the tab switcher, the bottom bar will only have a plus button which will add a more tab upon clicking it. Besides the plus button, is the options button (three dots icon) of the tabs switcher which upon clicking will show options to make a new tab or a new incognito tab, close all the tabs, and open settings.
The options button (three dots) on the bottom bar (not the one in tabs switcher) will show you all the normal options that chrome already has.
With this, I’ve also included some tricks tome your chrome experience better, which are
1. Vertical Scroll To Horizontal Scroll (for both Chrome and Chrome Dev)
By default, in both chrome and chrome dev, the tabs switcher section has vertical scroll like shown in the picture below.
I don’t like the vertical scroll because You can make it horizontal by following the steps given here:
Step 1) Tap the search button in the bottom bar in the Chrome Dev and in case of Chrome tap, the search bar
Step 2) Write in the search bar ‘ chrome://flags ‘ without the quotation marks. It will open Chrome’s flags page.
Step 3) There, in the search bar type ‘horizontal tab switcher’
Step 4) In the first result, tap the drop-down arrow beside the default written in a box. It will show three options click Enabled
Step 5) There’ll be a Relaunch Now option. Tap that
2. Back and Forward Navigation Gestures (Currently only for Chrome Dev)
If you have ever used Chrome on a Mac then, you know you awesome and useful is the double finger back and forward gesture. These gestures are only available for Chrome in macOS. But with Chrome Dev, you can use it on Android. With this, you can swipe from the left edge to go back to the last opened webpage and swipe from the right edge to forward. This feature can be pretty useful and considered as one of the perks of using Chrome in macOS. To enable it on android,
Step 1) Open the Chrome Dev’s flags page. (for how to open flags page, check above)
Step 2) There, in the search bar type ‘Overscroll history navigation‘

3. Dark Mode For Website (Only for Chrome Dev)
Dark Mode is a feature that is being introduced in may software. Firstly, introduced in macOS 10.14 Mojave, then Samsung’s new OneUI and it is supposed to be launched in iOS 13 in June this year. Chrome Dev has got Dark Mode support for websites but not from native pages like the New Tab Page. This is how it looks.
Yeah, I know it looks like someone has forcefully made the dark theme for mobisium.com site. Some text combinations are unreadable due to the background image. And, Overall, doesn’t seem as good as expected. Look at the screenshots of Flipkart and facebook, Their logo and the background aren’t matching at all. But still best out of all of them is Twitter, I mean neither any logo background mismatching nor any other thing that would make it look weird.
Twitter Dark Mode works Seamlessly
I think Google Chrome just changes the color of all the places where white is there. Still, if you wanna turn on and try the dark mode in Chrome Dev, here’s how to.
Go to the chrome dev’s flags page. (for how to open flags page, tap here)

An important factor in skin aging for women is the onset of menopause that time in a woman’s life when her body stops manufacturing estrogen and when ovulation and menstruation cease. Menopause is a rite of passage now affecting millions of women.
Impact of Menopause
The effect of menopause on the lives of women varies a lot. Some women find the transition “no big deal”, whereas others find themselves suffering months. Perhaps years, of physical and emotional discomfort. Symptoms can appear at any time in what is technically called “the period-menopausal process”: premenopause, when periods become irregular and lighter or heavier; menopause, when the periods stops; postmenopause, the process can begin in the early forties or in initial fifties, but by age 55, around 95% of women will be postmenopause.
Problems of Menopause
All should be aware of the potential physical problems of menopause conditions such as hot flashes, headaches, heart palpitations, fatigue, insomnia, weight gain, dry skin, hair loss and vaginal dryness that can mean painful intercourse. Emotionally, there can be increased anxiety, irritability, “fuzzy-mindedness,” changes in sexual drive, and mild to deep depression which can compound the stress in women’s lives. On top of all this, there can be women’s increasing concern about their physical appearance and general attractiveness and the fear of “looking old”.
Affecting the Skin
The hormonal changes that take place during menopause do affect the skin though compared to other problems, dry skin and occasional acne can seem like the least of your worries. Still, for many women, the wrinkles that begin to appear more apparent as they enter menopause are the most visible tangible signs of aging. There are also other skin changes that are hormonally related like increased dryness, loss of skin elasticity and for many women the appearance or reappearance of acne.
Hormonal Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Many women are attracted to hormone replacement therapy in hopes of achieving younger looking skin. HRT refers to replacing the estrogen and progesterone depleted by menopause. Deciding whether or not to take hormones and for how long is a very individual decision that should not be made only on the basis of skin appearance. It is a decision to be made in consultation with your doctor, hopefully, a physician who is knowledgeable of menopause, HRT, etc. There are different kinds of hormones and number of ways to take them – orally, vaginally, rubbing them into the skin or via a skin patch.
In the 1950s and 1960s, the only estrogen was prescribed for menopausal women, and by the mid-1970s, reports were indicating that women on long term estrogen replacement were showing increasing evidence of endometrial cancer(cancer on the lining of the uterus).
Menopausal Treatment
One of the newest developments in menopausal treatment is the use of natural forms of estrogen and progesterone. They are derived from soybeans and wild Mexican yam by massaging the cream into the skin. There are few side effects which are reported of such creams. Many health practitioners are finding that the progesterone cream alone helps relieve menopausal symptoms and is it an effective alternative to HRT.
Menopausal women are also finding that ancient Chinese herbal medicines like dong quai and ginseng relieve hot flashes and vaginal dryness. There are quite a few other alternatives to hormonal supplements available through acupuncturists, homeopaths and herbalists who are knowledgeable about menopause. These treatments may be useful for those who don’t want to take hormones or who have poorly reacted by taking them.
It is one of the three major religions of early India, which has been continuously followed around the middle of the first millennium BC. Jainism emerged in India about the same period as Buddhism. It was founded by Mahavira ( 599 – 527 BC) in about 500 B. C. Mahavira was born around Patna in which is now known as Bihar state. Mahavira was called ‘Jina’ meaning the big winner and from this title was derived the name of the religion.
Jainism is related to Buddhism. Both were developed as discord to the Brahmanic philosophy that was imperative during that period in north-east India. Both share a belief in incarnation which eventually leads to freedom.
Jainism is procured from the word Jina, meaning ‘liberator’ or ‘victor’, referring to religious rather than material conquest. Jains firmly believe (as do Buddhists and Hindus) in a cycle of birth and rebirth, influenced by the effects of the individual’s behaviours and attitudes this concept is known as ‘karma’.
The final goal of the believer is to divide the cycle and attain liberation. To aid them to achieve this goal, Jains worship a group of 24 liberated souls called Jinas or Tirthankaras they were ‘those who ford the river’ between the material and spiritual worlds, who serve as teachers and role models to the followers.
Jainism springs with a solemn concern for the human soul in its relationship with the laws overseeing existence in the universe, with other living beings, and to its own eventual state in eternity. Firstly, it is a belief of the heart: the golden rule of which is Ahimsa or nonviolence in all parts of a person– mental, verbal, and physical.
Jains have deep empathy for all forms of life. Jainism offers a quiet, overwhelmingly earnest way of life, a cultural emphasis on kindness, a society of ethics that has dramatically transformed the world and will remain to effect change. Jainism is an ecologically responsible way of life which is peaceful in thought, action, and accomplishment.
Features of Jainism:
Truth and Non Violence
It is based on two principal concepts: Nonviolence (ahimsa) and truth (satya). These are essential not only for individual enlightenment but also for social welfare and affluence. All the twenty-four Tirthankars taught nonviolence and honesty for spiritual advancement as against divine rituals. Nonviolence is based on the virtue of life and love for all living beings. Truth clarifies the mind. Speaking pleasant and nutritive truth is nobler than silence.
Human Peace
Jain ethics deals with interpreting human peace problem. Jainism, owing to its complete and accommodative view, is well-equipped to resolve the predicament of world peace. Jainism addresses the multiplicity of perspectives which is called anekantavada.
Universal Religion
One of the unique qualities of the Jain religion is that it can be adopted as a ‘universal religion’. If a person who is not even a supporter of the Jain religion works dharma which consists in becoming free from attachment and aversion, they are a Jain in the true sense. This shows the kindness of Jainism. There is a concept of asocca kevali” in Jainism. This concept in the Jain religion gravels the way for it being accepted as a universal religion, It is indeed a “Non- parochial religion”.
There are over 4,000,000+ followers of Jainism with majority of population residing in India
The Caste System
In the Jain religion, the notion of caste is contemplated unreal. It does not give any refined importance to caste by birth. During the period of Lord Mahavira, the Vedic tradition concocted much strain on caste. Lord Mahavira elevated his voice toward this. He said ‘Brahmana, Ksatriya, Vaisya and Sudra are all classified according to their performance and not according to their caste’.
A single person can belong to all four castes in his life. When a person guards their country against enemies, he becomes a Ksatnya. When he does several businesses, he becomes a Vaisya. When he performs a service, he is a Sudra and while teaching he is a Brahmana. Lord Mahavira does not give any refined attention to caste, he was totally fronting the practice of untouchability. According to him, to judge anyone untouchable on the grounds of caste was violence. He has always lectured that he says, “No hine, No airitte.” which implies that , “No one is inferior, no one is superior.”
Equality
Jainism has always supported equality. Lord Mahavira assigned equal value to men and women. Mahavira was the primary person who inducted women into his order. Mahavira went abreast the dominant social norms and uplifted the fair sex, as a result, that nuns outnumbered monks. Historical documents show that there were 14000 monks and 36000 nuns in Mahavira’ s order.
The Ontological View
The ontological view of Jains is regarded primarily with life and survival rather than the conception of the universe and the conception of God. Jainism, however, cannot be viewed as agnosticism or metaphysical nihilism. It is to the honor of Jain thinkers that they assembled a philosophy and theory of truth out of the negative path. Jainism does not contradict reality. Jain philosophers adopted an intermediate course by propounding a theory that the world consisted of two infinite, uncreated, synchronizing but sovereign categories of substances.
The Concept of Godhood:
The true God is not the God as the architect of the cosmos, nor the God who tides over our economic problems or panders to our vanity by fulfilling our wishes, but it is the God who appears within and through our value-sense, pulling us up and through the developing ideas and with whom I may perceive myself to be united in the profound bonds of love. Jain preaching’s said a man is mounted to Godhood and God to man.

Teachings of Jainism
Mahavira did not consider in the existence of God. He considered that God is the biggest, the stateliest and the comprehensive manifestation of all the powers which lie latent in the soul of man. The teachings of Mahavira were uncomplicated. He based his teachings on three thoughts which were as follows:
Right Faith (Samyak Darshana): Right faith implies hearing, seeing, feeling, and sensing everything right and to steer clear of conjecture and notions that can get in the way of seeing the truth.
Right Knowledge (Samyak Gyana): It means having a methodical and satisfactory knowledge of the universe. This includes having information of the 5 substances of the universe, however having this knowledge with the right mental state. A person who has accurate knowledge will be simply freed from these things and by doing that will achieve peace of mind.
Right Conduct or Action (Samyak Charitra): means conveying your life in the right way according to the Jain rules, and to not wreck any living thing, or to be fastened to properties. Jains believe that a person who has the right faith and right understanding will be motivated to have right conduct. They also believe that a person without right faith and knowledge will not be able to deliver the right conduct. This means there is no use of following the reality and rituals to impress someone.
These three instructions are called Triratna or Three jewels. Apart from the three jewels, Mahavira preached his disciples to follow the five principles which are as follows:
Ahimsa – not to hurt any living beings
Satya – to speak justice
Asteya – not to steal
Tyag – not to own property
Brahmacharya – to lead a righteous life.
Jain Councils
The description of the three Jain councils has been given below:

Jain literature
Lord Mahavir’s teaching was personally organized by his disciples into many Sutras (texts). Collectively these texts are called Jain accepted or Agam literature. he Ang-agams are the former religious scriptures and the backbone of Jain writing. The twelfth Ang-agam is called Drastivad. The Drastivad consists of fourteen Purva subjects, also known as Purvas or Purva-agams.
Jain Literature also called as Jain Agamas. They are official texts of Jainism based on Mahavira’s teachings. There are in all 46 texts.
Purva: It is one of the well known Jain literature. The contents of the Purvas was so vast, that the culture holds that, the first one is written by the pamphlet of the ink that is commensurate to the size of one elephant. Another one is two times larger, and the third one is two courses larger than the second one and so on. It was said that all efforts to express the knowledge of Purva in words were in trivial.
It provided specific information about six kinds of reals or substances, all kinds of living creatures, the things which were to exist for infinite time, those which were to come into actuality for a fleeting time and their time of extinction, five kinds of knowledge, truth, soul, karma, mantra, benefits of self-discipline, the lifestyle of monks and householders, birth, death and a comprehensive description of the whole universe.

Jain architecture
Jain architecture is a by-product of Hindu and Buddhist styles. In the initial years, many Jain temples were made appending the Bhuddhist temples following the Buddhist rock-cut architecture. Initially, these temples were largely sculpted out of rock faces and the use of bricks was almost negligible
Ranakpur Temple
The enrichment of Jain art to the mainstream art in India has been considerable. Every phase of Indian art is designed by a Jain version and each one of them is worthy of scrupulous study and understanding. The magnificent Jain temples and sculptured monuments of Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan are world-renowned. The most magnificent of all Jain temples are found at Ranakpur and Mount Abu in Rajasthan. Deogarh (Lalitpur, U.P.), Ellora, Badami, and Aihole also have some of the valuable specimens of Jain Art. Features of Jain architecture are as follows:
As exposed to solitary Hindu temples, Jain temple architecture are mostly found in the form of ‘temple-cities’. These temple-cities are magnificent temple compounds, which contain huge numbers of an individual or interconnected temples and shrines.
Most of the Jain pilgrimage sites were built on hilltops which include Palitana temple in Gujarat, Sonagiri temple in M.P. etc.
Shravanabelagola
The cells of these temples have pointy domes and wherever there is a dome, the shafts are omitted to create an octagonal space within.
Jain temples are noted for the use of rich materials like marble and ornamentation.
Domes or shikharas on the top are usually miniature than the ones found in Hindu temples. These versatile dome points, reaching toward the sky give a very distinct appearance to Jain temple cities.
Dilwara Temple
Jain temples have numerous pillars having a well-designed structure, forming a square.
The squares thus formed constitute chambers or chapels which contains the image of a deity.
These pillars and roofs of the temple are richly carved and well decorated.
Unlike Buddhist Viharas, the Jain viharas do not have the assembly or prayer hall surrounded by cells. The cells of Jain viharas are small and plain, intended to observe rigorous asceticism by Jain monks. The doorways are also small and one has to stoop or crawl to enter a cell.
Bawangaja
Jain temples were mostly constructed on platforms or terraces, generally referred to as “Jagati” or “Vedi”. Even rock-cut cave temples have platforms. This was done to elevate the temple above the surrounding surface and create a distinct sacred area.
Jain temples are enclosed by free-standing high compound walls, called as Prakara.
Structurally speaking, a Jain temple is formed on a square plan with openings in four cardinal directions, each of which could lead to the image of a Tirthankara. The Chamukh temple of Lord Adinath is a typical example of the four-door temple.

Your Username And Biography
For an easy search, your Instagram username must match the username of your other brand profiles on social networks. The only additional information that appears on your public profile is your website (a URL, which you can change to promote campaigns or new content) and a short biography.

Dominate Instagram and grow your online presence
Your Instagram profile photo will be cut in a circle in the app, so you should make sure that the image you select looks good in that way. Although the profile picture will be 110 pixels in diameter in the mobile application, select a larger image, as it will look larger on the Internet.
Connect With People
To boost the presence of your company on Instagram, you must follow many users. Find influencers in your industry, clients and other relevant people for your brand and follow them.

Managing Your Social Media Presence Along

Setting Goals On Instagram Business Account
All your Instagram efforts should be based on strategic goals. What does your company hope to achieve when using Instagram? Establish goals that relate to the goals of departments or the company in general. For example:
Increase product sales
Generate traffic to your website
Increase brand recognition
Increase customer satisfaction
Attract the best talent
Identify and establish relationships with influencers
No matter what you try to achieve, your Instagram goals must be specific, measurable, feasible, relevant and timely (or SMART, if you prefer acronyms).
How To Create Content Marketing Strategy For Instagram
Surfing sporadically on Instagram, liking a few photos and posting a picture of your dog’s face for the fourth time in the week works well for a person using the platform. But you need to have a more conscious marketing plan on Instagram for business if you want to create a solid community and real results for your company. Your strategy must comply with 4 key aspects.
1. Frequency and schedules to publish
You should have a publication calendar, but do not fill your publications followers. The smartest way to find out what works best for your business is to test the publications at different intervals and schedules in order to track the results. Once you have deciphered the best pace, a shared content calendar is the best way to control what will be published and when.
2. Content topics
Varying the different content topics will allow things to remain interesting for your followers, and allow you to achieve different goals. For example, an institute of higher education, whose objective is to increase recognition and attract new students, could use competitions, stories of graduates and life within its facilities as its main content topics.
3. Style guidelines
Do you use emojis in your captions? Are there grammar rules that your brand follows? What hashtags do you use? What kind of public photos? Are there visual indications to which each publication should stick? Your style guidelines should cover all the ways in which your brand differentiates and maintains consistency. We will see more in detail how you can define these aspects in the next section.
4. Rules of interaction
These rules should cover how and when your company should interact with other Instagram accounts, from liking and commenting on other people’s photos to managing incoming comments on your own account. Professional advice: Do not automate your interactions. We have tried it and it does not work well.
Creating a Brand Name for Instagram Account
The visual aspect of Instagram prevails, for the most part, so try to create a consistent and recognizable brand identity. These are some ways you can do it:
1. Generate visual consistency
A WebDam report on the visual aspect of social networks found that 60 per cent of the best brands on Instagram use the same filter for each publication. If you use the same filters, again and again, you will establish a style that will become recognizable to your followers. Because your goal is to make Instagram users stop scrolling once they see your image, (in order to interact with it by liking or commenting on it), the more you instantly recognize your photos, the better.
Mobile photo editing applications such as VSCOcam or Enhance can offer additional filters or editing options to help you discover your style. Even photos that have been edited or filtered in other applications can also be imported into Instagram.
2. Choose a specific theme
At a visual level, you must decide on what content your publications will focus on. In some cases, the content will be obvious: a clothesline will show clothes, a restaurant will post pictures of their dishes.
You do not need to have a lifestyle brand to publish content of that type. Hootsuite is a social media management solution, but our Instagram news section publishes photos and videos of our staff, our dogs and our offices.
3. Be honest with your audience
Your company will not succeed on Instagram just by mimicking the strategy of other brands. What works with Starbucks or Red Bull will not necessarily work with a financial institution or nonprofit organization. Focus on your audience and make sure you meet their interests and expectations. Analyze what works with your company on other social networks, the content that your audience shares on Instagram and how they interact with your competitors or similar brands.
4. Use creativity with your Instagram content for businesses
Take a photo, add a filter and publish it immediately. It is not like this? That could have worked when Instagram took its first steps, but the platform has matured and now gives many opportunities for companies to share different types of interactive and eye-catching content. These are some ways to blow your imagination and be creative with your Instagram content.
5. Do not neglect the comments
Instagram is all about visually appealing content, but do not neglect the comments that accompany each photo, these represent a great opportunity for your company to tell a story. Instagram comments allow you to explain an image, give context and even make your followers laugh (especially if you are a professional with emojis). You can also link an image back to your company. Check out these 12 tips to write the best comments on Instagram.
6. Use photo and video albums
You can add up to 10 photos and videos in a single Instagram post, which gives users the opportunity to browse and view each content individually. These albums offer companies a way to combine photos and videos to tell stories and convey information in a highly attractive way. Here are five ways you can use Instagram albums to create interactive publications for your company.
7. Take a chance with Instagram stories
Instagram Stories have quickly accumulated 250 million average users per day, and it seems that companies will not stop using them. Content removal features and live streams make Instagram Stories the perfect vehicle for companies to take creative risks and create photos as well as eye-catching videos. For more information, see our publication on how your company can use Instagram Stories.
8. Collaborate with influencers
Identify the influential people in Instagram that are relevant to your brand or industry and start creating a relationship. Give them control of your account for a day for a takeover, or ask if you can provide sponsored content on your own account. This could be a huge benefit as they will expose your brand to your huge Instagram community. While many influencers charge a lot of money for their services, even small and medium businesses can use this tactic when associating with local influencers. Learn more about this strategy in our guide for influential marketing in social networks.
Improving Business Results With INSTAGRAM Ads
Social media ads have proven to be an effective means of generating new business, and Instagram ads are no exception. It does not matter if your goal is to generate brand recognition, get more visits to the website or increase downloads of your mobile application, Instagram ads can help you access a huge and participatory audience. Learn how to make the most of them in our Instagram advertising guide.
