Since my last
article about expired and lost green cards, I have received
numerous inquiries from people about related issues. A lot
of the questions I received indicated that a vast number of
readers do not understand that an
expired green card is a different issue than abandoned
residency.
Indeed, as mentioned in my last article, just because your
green card has
expired does not mean that your status as permanent resident
has expired. On
the other hand, you may have a valid green card but may
still have abandoned
your residency.
The fact remains that the permanent resident card (Green
Card) is issued
to allow the holders to reside and work permanently in the
United States. It
should not be considered to be a permanent visitor visa
allowing the holder to
come and go out of the U.S. as s/he pleases. While it is
fine to travel outside
the United States whenever required, it is important to
understand that the
objective should be to remain and work in the United States
permanently.Read More

Dona Paula
is a secluded bay that offers a magnificent view of the
Mormugao harbor. This idyllic rocky tourist attraction lies
at the spot where the Mandovi and the Zuari Rivers meet the
Arabian Sea. It is easily one of the most popular spots on
the itinerary of tourists
visiting Goa.
We could see a few ferries taking passengers across the bay.
The more adventurous ones were busy with water sports
activities. By the way, water scooters, boating,
parasailing, yachting, windsurfing and fishing are available
in this area.Read More

Namaste. In last month’s article, you read
about how working in an environment of uninspired
‘corporate’ agenda can leave one feeling empty and stressed.
As we saw, the way to minimize this stress is to immerse
oneself in spiritual presence while performing all work.
This article discusses the role of religion in guiding one
towards realizing this spiritual presence at every moment of
life. Vedic scriptures present us a rich and invaluable
resource of knowledge on this topic.
Many Gurus who have treaded the path of yoga have left
mileposts guiding us in our own journey. In this article, we
will reflect and contemplate on some of these ideas and
inspirations.
People generally carry
the misconception in their mind that air pollution is
associated with the contamination of urban air from the
exhaust fumes from automobiles and industrial effluents.
However, the problem of indoor air pollution is more serious
then the ambient air pollution. The main culprits causing
indoor pollution are: Radon, asbestos, volatile organic
compounds,
pesticides, heavy metals, animal dander, mites, molds and
tobacco smoke.
