Since I have never ever rented any property, I have no idea how a tenant feels about renting out ! But all said and done it is give and take where both parties have to come to an agreement and stick to the terms ! I had a problem once not from the tenants but from my neighbors who did not want the particular couple who were renting our upstairs because the couple were in a live in relationship. Honestly , it should not have made any difference because until the revelation came , they were both treated with a lot of affection and respect but things changed overnight and the neighbors began putting pressure on me saying they were setting a bad example to the neighborhood blah blah ... I stood firm and told my neighbors that I cannot violate the terms for a flimsy reason like that since the tenants besides being highly educated were very co operative and genuinely nice ...Any way the couple themselves left after 2 months ! It was a very unpleasant experience, also showed the attitude of my neighbors who I thought were very broad minded until then , going by the way they spoke and came across ..

If these educational institutions are increased and provide quality education, there is nothing wrong in having more places of worship. But it is not duty of educational institute of teach us about religion. Requirement of educational institutes is only for the young, but religious places are for all peoples, so these may be more than educational institutes.

Indeed congress is addict of power. Looking that BJP and congress are not two political parties, these are gangsture. India is know for its sound democracy in the world. but what these leaders are doing. One is buttering nation who is not a friend and other is praising bitchi deed of ISIS.At present issue of intolrence is hottest one but it  is the country who is tolerating stupid most deed of its politicians. Salman Kurshid gave new weapon to use against India to Pakistan.

Shampa Sadhya wrote: I would suggest that one can try meditation and home counselling as home remedy for depression but if no improvement is noticed within a few days then it's good not to waste any more time. Then an expert medical help such as psychiatrist must be consulted. It will be foolish if in this present age we avoid to consult such experts. Cure of an ailment is more important than anything else. Earlier, I have mentioned that expert counselling should be the last resort by saying this what I meant is that one can try home remedies for a short period and then switch to expert's advice if no positive result is found after exercising home remedies.   No doubt Yoga, meditation is not effective in case of emergency. These are slow therapy. But if we practice yoga and meditation with medicines than we will cure much fast.

The purpose is to provide the quality of education that helps in taking the country towards development. If these educational institutions serve this purpose, then there is nothing wrong in having more number of places of worship. But the things are happening in a different way. Quality education is deteriorating by day and above all there is no accessibility to a common man.

You said Meditation can be tried for getting rid of depression and its ill effects. That's all. Meditation will certainly take care of depression. If meditation fails in curing depression, there is something wrong in your way of doing Meditation.If meditation is done in the right way, the question of failing doesn't arise. One should bear it in mind that Yoga or Meditation should be practiced in a phase manner. One should not expect miracles overnight.  It has been scientifically proved that Mediation has the potential to cure depression. If by any chance this system fails, then you can think of other ways as you suggested.

There are so many religions and people from every religion would need a place of worship in the vicinity. So, naturally there will be more places of worship. It is not correct to make a comparison with the number of educational institutions. It would have made more sense if comparison was made between the money being spent on the number of pubs in the cities and the amount spent on education.

There is nothing wrong absolutely in having places of worship or doing worshiping. Having educational institutions  is also important rather more important in development of the country. If places of worship outnumber the educational institutions ,how one can expect an educated society and a country can develop?
