Coinciding his 91st birthhday on 23rd May 2026, he informed Shri VRR Ved, President Rajkot unit to call on him. Afteer exchange of pleasantries and birthday wishhes, Shri VR Ved informed him of the EC meetingg at Chennai decision of felicitating him and on behalf of AIRIEF, felicitated him with Shawl and Shrifal. A copy of Varishtha Vaani articulating his donation was presented to him. Cursorily, he went through it and expressed his happiness over the subject contents of VV. He also expresseed his praise for the activities of units pan India..
Shri Dholakia after the feelicitation asked Shri Ved that he wishes to donnate to AIRIEF on this special day, what amount should he donate. Às this visit was a courtesyy call to felicitate him, Shri Ved humbly told hiss purpose of visit and chose not to ask for donation. After continuous persuasion from Shrri Dholakia, Shri Ved humbly requested him to donate what he donated last year but Shri Dhololakia suo moto chose to donate Rs.2,51,000//- towards Legal Fund.
Seldom do we come accross good samaritans, exceptions are alwayss there where a person after Karma, forgets of reaping fruits of good doing. The shloka "KaKarmanyevadhika raste, maa faleshu kadachana" truly holds good on him.

Daily Quotes-JK- Day 5
Dissatisfaction · Escapes · Flame of discontent · Transformation: I think I can escape from my discontent by having something more, more clothes or more power and so on. But the dissatisfaction is still there, only I cover it up with clothes, with power, with cars. I just cover it up. Until you find out how to understand what you are, merely covering yourself with words, with power, with position, has no meaning. You will still be unhappy. Seeing this, the unhappy person, the person who is in sorrow, does not run away to gurus, to position, to power; he wants to know what is behind that word, what lies behind that sorrow. If you go behind it, you will find that it is yourself, yourself who is very small, yourself who is miserable, unhappy, struggling to achieve greatness. So, this struggle to be something is the cause of sorrow. But if you can understand the thing, that which you are, go deeper and deeper behind it, you will find something quite different.

Daily Quotes-JK- Day 4
Dissatisfaction · Escapes · Flame of discontent · Transformation:
Being dissatisfied with and not understanding the fact of what we are, we create the idea of what we should be, so there is a division, a contradiction. Throughout the world, this process is going on, this escape from ‘what is’ through the ideational pursuit of ‘what should be’. And surely, as long as we struggle to bring about an approximation between the fact and the idea, conflict is inevitable. Most of our actions are based on ideas. We are motivated by the thought ‘I should’ or ‘I should not’, which means that our action is rooted in an idea, and we are always trying to approximate the two.

https://carnegieendowment.org/research/2026/04/indias-demographic-dividend-is-a-test-of-governance The demographic dividend is the potential economic growth a country can enjoy as a result of shifts in its population’s age structure. India often finds itself at the center of discussions about this concept. Much of the contemporary discourse around India’s rise as a major global economic power rests on the assumption that a youthful population will translate into sustained economic growth. The logic is straightforward: a smaller share of dependents (in India’s case, mostly children) relative to the working age population enables greater investment per child, particularly in healthcare, nutrition, education, and skills. Better-equipped workers are, in turn, more productive, boosting per capita income. In addition, women are more likely to enter the labor force, raising household incomes and overall growth. For many decades, optimism about India’s demographic boon was well-founded. But that optimism is now under strain.

Daily Quotes-JK- Day 6
Dissatisfaction · Escapes · Flame of discontent · Transformation
It is discontent that drives, that creates, that urges us on. If we can understand discontent without smothering it by the search for certainty and psychological security, if we can keep that discontent and its flame alive, our problem is simple, because that very discontent is creative, and from that we can move on. But the moment we smother discontent, put it away, resist it, hide it, the mind is concerned merely with the reconciliation of effects, and discontent is no longer a means of going forward and plunging into something unknown.
