MESSAGE I am glad to know that ‘Utkalika’, an association of the citizens of Odisha State residing in Eastern Province of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is celebrating the annual Utkal Divas celebration on May 5, 2017. A Souvenir is also being brought out to mark the occasion.

Celebrating Odisha’s rich art, culture and tradition not only gives a sense of joy and pride but also reminds state’s strong roots. “Utkalika” has been doing a laudable job in preserving and promoting Odisha’s uniqueness and in strengrthening coirdial relation with each other and with the local people. I wish “Utkalika” would remain dedicated to spread Odisha’s glory and contribute to the state’s development and prosperity.

I wish the celebration and publication all success.

My dear fellow-Odiyas, Greetings !

I am glad that I have been fortunate enough to witness the growth of UTKALIKA and the commendable activities done by UTKALIKA in more than one way to the expats in the Kingdom and social events back home in India.

It is far more gratifying and making each and one of us feel proud that irrespective of the time and distance, being far away from home, UTKALIKA has been singlehandedly and dedicatedly promoting our beloved State of Odisha, culturally and commercially. The significance of UTKALIKA has been the source of strength, providing succor to those expats, and, above all, organizing such events, thus creating a platform for all of us to get together and celebrate the occasion.

The name “Kalinga” means Lord “Shiva” Kalinga is mentioned in the ancient scriptures as Kalinga the Braves (Kalinga Sahasikha). During the 3rd century B.C. the Greek ambassador Megasthenes in his tour of India had mentioned about the military strength of the Kalinga army of about one lakh which consisted of 60 thousand soldiers, 1700 horses and thousands of elephants. Kalinga was also powerful in the naval force.

The vast military strength of Kalinga was the cause of jealousy for the Magadha Empire.

It was in 261BCE when the historical Kailnga war was fought which proved to be a turning point for the Mauryan emperor Asoka and made him embrace non-violence and the teachings of Buddha.

You all would be surprised to know the reason of war….

It was nothing but jealousy for our strength. Then why we are not awe of our own things. I believe we should not feel jealous or feel arrogant and proude……. But we should definitely feel and take pride of our history, art, and culture of course not to forget our “Matrubhasa”.

The following century saw the renowned Anantavarman Chodnagagadeva, who built the temple of Jagannath at Puri. Then in the 13th century the famous sun temple at Konarak was built by Narasimha I Utkala Kingdom (Odia: ଉତ୍କଳ) is mentioned in the epic Mahabharata, with the names Utkala, Utpala, Okkal and Odra desha. It is mentioned in India’s national anthem, Jana Gana Mana.

I hasten to mention here that I am the President of Mumbai Utkal Samitee, and our Samitee has been engaged in social developmental activities within Mumbai, in large part to our community, medical assistance, and funding school children. Mumbai Utkal Samite’s services are recognized and widely supported by our community in Mumbai.

As you might be aware, I do run two Trusts back home in Odisha - Dev Loknath Educational Trust, solely with a purpose to support the needy children in their education, and Braj Gauri Trust, established in memory of my grandparents, mainly to help the despondent, old age people, medical assistance, sustenance, distribution of free food supplies and clothes. I am proud to say that our volunteers and support staff have always risen to the occasion during the natural calamities in our state. No doubt, UTKALIKA’s efforts are laudable and its efforts to preserving the culture is extraordinary.

I take this opportunity to congratulate all of you and wish the function a grand success.

Yours truly Dr. Dev L Mohanty Chairman ASMACS Group of companies BRAJ GAURI & DEV LOKA EDUCATIONAL TRUST

MESSAGE It is heartening to note that UTKALIKA - Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia is celebrating Utkal Divas and bringing out a Souvenir to mark the occasion on 5th May-2017.

The endeavour of the organisation is really praiseworthy. Remembering the motherland while away from home, cherishing its glory and invoking the spirit of unity and patriotism is unique.

I wish the celebration all sucess.

Debashis Rout President, ROSA

Congratulatory Message As a member of the ROSA association, I want to offer my most sincere congratulations to this wonderful organization Utkalika on its 8th anniversary.

This milestone of 8 years is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the history of Utkalika in this foreign land and the important contributions it has made to the personal and social development of over 250 Odiya families, past and present. It’s a big achievement which we have to accept it. I would like to thanking those founder members of Utkalika whose hard work and selflessness attitude shows the results in the current years.

I would like to offer my sincere respect and warmest congratulations to all the Utkalika members who put tremendous effort with many sleepless night for the success of this annual event is an inspirational moment for all Pravashi Odiya here in Saudi Arabia.

We know, Inspiration is a life enhancer, to me it is a turning point where someone takes you by the hand and walks you on to a different path and says walk …… fear not it will be for the better. Similarly, we observed Utkalika providing foundation for all young children to perform various cultural activities with the highest perfection of the supervision of talented cultural team consist of Utkalika ladies.

8 years have come and gone, and Utkalika has given the chance to gain exposure in terms of bonded relationship among Odiya community in this Industrial city Jubail with various cultural as well as social activities.

Be determined to succeed and to succeed we must be determined to work hard.

Only work follows success and it is always the same sequence which we observed from Utkalika due to its dedication and commitment.

During these years Utkalika created a big impact on ROSA by providing confidence to grow in this foreign land as if both are two branches originated from a tree with similar motivation to spread love and affection through art and culture among different communities in this foreign land. I am optimist about our strong relationship which will be much stronger in coming years due to our similar thinking and closeness.

I am proud to claim an association with Utkalika for the past 7 years even if away from Jubail due to so much love received from the first visit till now.

I would like to conclude my congratulatory remarks by having a strong hope that the Utkalika will continue to contribute even further to the enhancement of Odiya art and culture at global level in the future. ROSA is always with you for Today and beyond tomorrow.

MESSAGE It is my pleasure to congratulate all the “UTKALIKA-EP” members and their families on the eve of 8th. Utkal Divas and annual function celebration. Celebrating this function for eighth consecutive years in a row proves your commitment and love for our fellow Odiya brothers and sisters living in Saudi Arabia.

It reminds me the year 2009, when we dreamt of uniting our Odiya people under the umbrella of “Utkalika” to foster love and brotherhood among them. I remember that moment, how the Odiya brothers from every walk of life came forward with great enthusiasm, positive attitude and fellow feelings to support us, for which our dream came true on 1st.April 2010. A few of them have already left Saudi Arabia and majorities are still with us. I salute all of them from core of my heart for whom our dream came into reality to build this platform.

By the active participation of all members, Utkalika was able to spread her wings to whole eastern province and at present we are more than 400 members. Now we can proudly say that, we are the largest conglomeration of Odiya people in whole Gulf Region.

Still we have a long distance to go. Our visions are yet to be fulfilled and many works are still to be performed for betterment of our Odiya people here as well as in our own state under Utkalika banner for which we have to work selflessly and united.

On the eve of this 8th. Utkal Divas and annual function celebration, let us take a pledge to be positive in our attitude and sacrificing in nature which will help us to take “UTKALIKA-EP” to a greater heightin the coming days.

BANDE UTKALA JANANI

The power of dream “THE FUTTURE BELONGS TO THOSE WHO BELIVE IN THE BEAUTY OF THEIR DREAM” If someone had not dreamed in the past to go to moon , the mankind would not have stepped on the moon surface. This is the power of dream. My fellow Utkalika members it in deed gives me immense pleasure to share some of my thoughts with you and I am confident all of you will like it.

Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. There are two types of dreams; dreams of the conscious mind and dreams of the subconscious mind.

Dreams of the conscious mind are more important than the dreams of the subconscious mind.

It is essential to understand the difference between the two. Dreams of the subconscious mind are the ones which occur accidentally or as a result of the events that surround us; dreams of the subconscious mind are visible only when we are asleep.

Dreams of the conscious mind on the other hand are the dreams which do not let us sleep until we achieve them. Now what are the dreams of our conscious mind? Earning loads and loads of money, buying your dream car, starting up your new business, buying your dream house etc. are all dreams of our conscious mind.

The dreams of our conscious mind are extremely essential if we want to achieve anything in our life; be it little or big. Dreams are extremely essential, they motivate us, strengthen our desires to move ahead in life no matter what the external conditions of our life are.

A person who is hard working but has no dreams in life is comparatively less successful that the person who is hard working and an avid dreamer at the same time. Dreams are your backbone, you can be successful without a dream but you cannot be happy without it.

It has been said that if you are already dreaming then you must dream big. Now what is dreaming big? After starting in believing your own capacity and capability, it is essential that you should set a goal, a dream which is difficult to achieve.

The moment you achieve that difficult dream, you will be happier than you thought you would be after achieving the dream. A car without a steering wheel is useless; similar is a life without dreams. You are dead the moment you stop dreaming.

The most successful people on earth are so because of the reason that they believed in their dreams and walked every path, unlocked all the keys on the road to the achievement of their dreams.

Is Bill Gates the best engineer in the world? Does Mac Donald’s make the best hamburger in the world? The answer is no. They are certainly the best dreamers in the world; they believed in magic, in the power of their dreams, no matter what the external world thought about them these people believed in their internal dreams.

It is essential for every individual to dream; whether it’s big or small. Once your small dreams start coming true, you will start dreaming big as a result of both habit and practice.

Friends, Utkalika is one of our such dreams which has become reality for which all of us should be proud of. Let us all nourish this dream through our dedication and hard work. I am sure one day we all can take this to a greater height. If I look eight year before and current stage of Utkalika, it gives me immense pleasure of accomplishment but we should not be complaisant and relax .We should be striving for better excellency and growth. Let us all prove the world that we are a community who are equally powerful and vibrant like any other community.

Ajit Kumar Jena.

Advisor Utkalika EP

We are the Volunteers Ajay Kumar Das “To be a member of UTKALIKA Eastern provinceis very easy but to continue as a Utkalika member and to work as a Volunteer needs commitment.”

When Utkalika was formed in the year 2008 and I became a member, it was one of the platform to improve our fellow feelings among our Odia brothers and sisters staying here in Jubail. Slowly it expanded to Dammam, Khobar, Rastanura , Khabji and in short to entire Eastern Province. Hence the name was changed to Utkalika E & P. From a team of around 40, it has now grown to a giant family of around 400 members. But is it only the fellow felling?

When I analyze my journey in Utkalika, I found it is something beyond this. Though, day by day the membership journey becomes more challenging but slowly, I realized it is more volunteering than that of any other things. When we organize our Utkalika function every year, once the date is announced, all our family members including our small children get excited.

Theyvolunteer and come forward to contribute and serve the organization participating in different activities in the function. They make our function more colorful, memorable and successful. They give theirvaluable time, energy and evenspendmoney from their own pocket for purchasing many items for the cultural activities. Still they never stop their journey. Every year they participate and enjoy the event to the fullest.Those who don’t participate in any activity but they never missed to be an audience. Even I had seen people had directly come

from Dammam airport to participate in this function to make our UTKALIKA get to-gather a memorable one.

Each member of the organization “makes a difference” by trying to do his best as hecan, by giving his best 100%.

Many times the members got differences but they resolve it for the benefit of the organization. In every stage they got the joy of doing the things as a volunteer. We learn by doing the things ourselves and get inspired by seeing others doingby participating in the function. In this process we always grow and learn to do the things betterevery year for our community. As a member, I feel, it is one of our basic responsibilities. And this is only possible when we really feel in our heart that we are thevolunteers and we are here to serve in this organization.

We have to understand, Volunteering is at the very core of being a human. And the Volunteers are just ordinary people but with extraordinary hearts who reach out and make a difference. They are always ready to offer their gift of time to build the community by helping and serving. They expect no pay of their time and the value of their work knows no limit.

Remember, “you can’t rise up by putting others down. In the measure in which you lift up others, that measure you yourself are lifted up.” SUCH IS THE LAW. And it is only possible when we work as a Volunteer.

Cheers to UTKALIKA Members and Volunteers. Long Lives UTKALIKA. Member Utkalika

Message Dear Utkalika Family, I feel honoured and proud to be a part of Utkalika which to me not just an annual cultural program, but a family reunion. Having been connected for over 5 years I feel today that Utkalika is an opportunity for us to proudly express our Odia identity as being an Odia to me does not only define my food , culture and lifestyle, it defines my very existence.

Living in a land that is thousands of miles away from home for any human being without relatives and friends, life gets difficult and any opportunity to meet, interact with fellow Odias is always a delighting experience for all of us.

The Utkalika family has bonded strongly over the years and every member is an important part of this extended family that stands by each other in all times. I feel Utkalika has been considerably successful in achieving its goal of organizing and uniting the Odia community in the Eastern province- one such remarkable achievement was Utkalika being honoured to represent Odisha in the 2016 India Fest event in Dammam.

A major concern that I as a parent of three and all Odia parents like me in KSA shared was to keep our children connected with their roots and the values that were passed on to us by our parents-Utkalika has served as a platform for our children to connect with members of the community that is otherwise very difficult and learn about their heritage that is imperative upon them to preserve.

In the end I would like to proudly state that whatever we have been able to achieve for the sake of Utkalika in all these years is only due the dedicated and self-less team work, where every member has contributed according to his capacity without any personal or vested interests.

I wish my odia brothers and sisters all success in the years to come and that we firmly with each other as a family.

Sheikh Sharafat Cheif Co-ordinator, Utkalika, EP, KSA

Message It is my gratitude to represent “UTKALIKA”-Odia Expatriates love to Odia Culture in the heart of desert land. Since beginning, I loved to be in a group of young, energetic and well-organized people along with our pillars who have been here since 10-20years and associated with UTKALIKA. Celebration of Utkal Divas brings an immense pleasure to me. It allows me to encounter magnificent personalities who have been enduring here since long time.

UTKALIKA is only way to bring and reconnect the broken links. I am really honored and thankful to our Team who made me feel delighted. It’s started with few members in 2010, but now we have increased in huge number. The intention of UTKALIKA is not to increase number, but to make our Odia culture much stronger and more precious. Some time, somehow, some where we are forgetting our culture, our tradition and our ancestors. UTKALIKA is only a medium to keep us remember with a strong value.

We have realized, many of us have outstanding skills and talent in writing.

We appreciate them by giving a chance to write their feelings and share to all.

Then we produce our magazine UTKALIKA. UTKALIKA is the only platform where personalities from different corner of Orissa meet and celebrate through their culture and make them a chance to share their views.

UTKALIKA is not only a magazine but also a preface of Odia culture, Odia people and my Odia expats, who have striven here, away from more than 3000 miles, made their way out, meets and celebrates. I feel proud that we have kept our identity, “UTKALIKA”. The name itself has proud.

I am thankful to all my Odia people to helping in bringing the Odia culture up, and putting your valuable efforts in UTKALIKA.

Reverend Readers of our Popular magazine “UTKALIKA”, As a token of appreciation of your love and support I ventured to shoulder the responsibility of Editorial board of our magazine. I congratulate you all for being with me as a friend at this farther country of Saudi Arabia. Today I would like to focus on two things. Hope all of you may consider having a look into the matter for restoration of our CULTURE and FAMILY HARMONY. Most of us know and call the place we born - our MOTHERLAND and the female who gave birth to us - our MOTHER. Those of who know these may or may not be attached to one or both of these. Many in their life’s journey, will have to live away from them either partly or wholly.

UtkalDiwas, a day to celebrate for my Motherland, also known as the Odisha Day is celebrated on 1st. Day of April in memory of the formation of our separate state on 1st. April. 1936. Since then we have gotten our separate identity and it is a matter of concern that our own identity is in danger due to high adaptability of foreign cultures and languages by us. I mean to say that accepting another culture is not bad, but forgetting own culture is most dangerous. We must rise to the occasion and feel the gravity of the situation and do something for restoring our culture. There may be a question arise in your mind , the writer is speaking much but writing in a different language, yes it came to my mind also, but because of the limited resources I am bound to. But in this global age of information and communication the vitality, importance and need to make a niche of our own native language in this globalized world is eminent. We all have to strive and put forth a conscious effort to make this alive and happening.

This is the high time to refresh our memory and analyze the selfless, dedicated efforts of Utkalmani Gopabandhu Dash, Madhushan Das, Maharaja of Parala etc. and contribute to our culture.

I am now living away from both my mother and motherland. The choice is always there for a return to their laps. Should I choose it? Should I leave the floating corporate diaspora that I am now living with?

Believe me friends, today the face of my dear mother - MO MAA everything comes frequently to my mind. I am lost and only thinking of her. Being away from home, I am perturbed like anything. I hung for her lap and soothing hands on my back.

The identity of a mother is MOTHERHOOD. Children are their great wealth. Poet Antler during 18thCentury has rightly said...

“WHO FED ME FROM HER GENTLE BREAST, AND HUSH’D ME IN HER ARMS TO REST, AND ON MY CHEEK SWEET KISSES PREST? MY MOTHER. ...WHO RAN TO HELP ME WHEN I FELL, AND WOULD SOME PRETTY STORYTELL, OR KISS THE PLACETO MAKE IT WELL?

MY MOTHER.” Mother is the BEST and the most beautiful creation of God. Possessor of rare characterstic. She thinks and tries finding ways and means to protect the child from the day she is conformed of motherhood in the womb. She spares overheating and extends untiring efforts for the betterment of her child. Inspite of all these she expects no return. Only and only development and betterment of her child. I believe she expects some sweet words, little care and protection at later part of her life. I am sure the dedication of a child towards his / her mother brings them prospority and light in pitch darkness.

Finally as all says needs to be self understood “JananiJanmBhumischaSwargadapiGariyasi” Yes, “Mother and Mother Land are Greater than Heaven.

For this Heaven (Mother and Motherland) our brave soldiers keep vigil day and night 24 hours and put their life on the valley of Gunfires. People work for the progress, Scientists work for better Today and Tomorrow and players put their life for our National Flag.

Today, my earnest request to my dear readers here is not to forget even for a single moment, the dedication, the love & the sacrifice of their our mother and the motherland. Please take care... Take care.... and take care.......

Ode To My Mom Arindam Jena

Mother, you are the light to my life, The reason where I am today, Your smile makes me want to stop time And admire the beauty of you From my first steps, to the days of me running, You have been the backbone and support With everything that goes wrong out there You have been there to comfort me Whenever I came to you with a problem You were there to give me solutions Without even any hesitation Thank you mama for those jokes As they made me laugh till I choke You’ve made my life full of delight And when I’m with you everything’s all right Without you I am nothing And with you I am everything Love you, mama

From Papa…..

Guruprasad Mohanty

You would be my life’s greatest gift Upon your arrival I will feel myself as complete.

It’s still early but you have stolen my heart I know it’s the beginning of the start.

I will follow every step that I can to make you see Now onwards you will be the one everything to me.

People would ask if you are a girl or boy For me you are the dearest child and tears of joy.

I promise, papa will keep you safe and mama will keep you warm With every aspect of affection and love to keep you form.

From the day one to the day you born I have to care you and your mom That I have sworn.

When I eavesdrops you and your mother I feel so alive and my eyes full of tear.

There is already a picture, how you look and how your eyes I usually hear you’re soothing and the newborn cries.

I know for sure you are now 6 months old There is so much about you, your mom has told.

Yesterday your mom said you moved a little The excitement to hold you in my hand became triple.

Promise me, whatever happens you won’t be late Promise through you mother, you will not make me wait.

Into My childhood…

Jagabandhu Jena

I still remember… when I was kid, My world seems to be fair and my universe was around my friends, We fight for pen and pencil but share our food with each other.

I still remember… In summer Stealing mangoes from neighbor garden to have fun did not last for ever, Pretending as asleep for mom, to go out on friends whistling did not last for ever.

I still remember…

Crying out loud just to get what we want did not last for ever.

Pretending as ill to hear stories from grandma did not last for ever.

Life was full of colors, no sorrow knocked the doors.

When I go back to childhood, eyes become full of tears Now time has changed… we have grown up with…

From, crying loudly to seek attention to crying silently to avoid attention.

From, believing in happy endings to accepting the reality.

From, stealing candies from sister to bringing silk for her.

Now time has changed… we have grown up with…

From, just five more mins mom to pressing the snooze button.

From, we are Best Friends Forever to Knowing that nothing truly lasts.

From, I want to grow up to I want to be a child again.

Now time has changed… we have grown up with…

From, crying out loud just to get what we want to holding our tears when we are broken inside.

From, lets meet and plan to Lets plan and meet.

From, ground mai aaja to online aaja.

Now time has changed… we have grown up with…

From, craving for pizza to craving for home food.

From, waking up at 6 am to sleeping at 6 am.

From, broken pencils to broken hearts.

My childhood was the time which is long gone…

My childhood will never come back but… the child in me will never go…

“The Truth About Our Earth” Arindum Jena

When I look at the green turns into brown Makes me want reconsider the truth Of our beautiful Earth and how it frowns And make a fool and joke out of my youth We poison the billions day by day Not knowing what impact it does to us Burning fossil fuels is not the game to play Creating the industries is a fuss Polluters don’t have a clue they Our woods is something we shall learn tocare Cause if people don’t care, the worlds nothing How much shall this precious earth bare This is our Earth, we should together combat This is our Earth, what we fight for, know that

Advertisements are Miselading Subhrajyoti Patra (Class – STD – IX )

Advertisements have become part and parcel of our life .Many of us love watching advertisements during commercial breaks. The true fact is that most of them are misleading .The false advertisements have great influence on life specifically on children who start demanding many things from parents such as toys, electronics , games and many other eatables which have got negative impact on health and behavior .

Advertisers pick out one or two good attributes in a product and then build dream to entice potential target customers in buying the specific products for which they have published the advertisement .They are “dream merchants” who transport you to a make – believe world, where life is smooth . Even during the journey one does not encounter any bumps of air turbulence.

For example we see so many advertisements in the TV about skin creams , soaps , shampoos and no one clearly states for which skin it is suitable and for which one it is not .

Let us talk about the Samsung galaxy note-7 , which was advertised as water resistant , best camera etc.. , but forgot to mention that this most beautiful and powerful version of note had a grenade function. The phone blew up by itself .Battery defects caused many note-7 units to overheat and combust or explode .However being a reputed company they had to permanently discontinue this device due to repeated incidents .

The actors or models those are part of many advertisements, perform all kinds of acts from sky diving to bungee jumping to floating on clouds, you name any imaginary character , they portray it with finesse .

I only wish that the world was as nice as the way the advertisers picture the life.

Never Give Up Yashdeep Dash

Jack Ma said, “ Never give up – Today is hard, tomorrow will be worse but the day after tomorrow will be sunshine.’’

Rest but never quit , even the sun has a sinking spell each evening, but it always rises the next morning. At sunsrise every soul is born again. There are many things to be learnt in this life and not just what we study in the schools . A lot is out there to learn from.

Even wisdom comes through experiences , learnt from nature and also from life and experiences of great and famous people .It is often seen that we get bored of doing anything repetitive or constructive.

Imagine how much time and patience it must have have been required to make the pyramids , the Taj or the sculptures of Ajanta and Elora caves.

Hardships shall always be there if we are going to make something great . Even the great inventions are the result of many failures. Remember Thomas Alva Edison and his great invention of bulbs which literally changed the whole world .

The inventions of bulb gave a new dimension to our lives .

Imagine the world now without the glittering bulbs at night – a matter to be thought of .

Well all cannot be scientists , but there are many other options .

Never give up your passion . Maybe you will make it big one day

Even if we don’t make it great , we should be always constructive in our thoughts . You never know the thought can lead to imagination and imagination could lead to ideas . And ideas could help us being somebody to be recognized as .

û 65

Ideas have given birth to creativity . All those beautiful man made creations outside are the result of somebody’s ideas.

Ideas even help in problem solving .Sometime’s I think about my parents . I see my mom working hard at home everyday doing the same routine things . My father attending to his duties and often coming home late . I really wonder why they don’t get bored doing the same routine things everyday and for what ?

Probably they want to make us successful when we grow up and this thought of theirs is the fuel for this ‘Never give up attitude.

Small achievements also give pleasure in life. A year back the Rubix Cube was a real puzzle for me. I had a desire to solve all the 6 sides . I kept on trying hard and today I can solve it in a few seconds. My target further is to achieve the 6 sides even faster.

Do you know what is the world record of solving this puzzle ? It is just 4.75 seconds held by Mats Valk who is just 20 years old .

I mentioned this because even for a rubix cube puzzle somebody is famous for his hard work and ‘never give up attitude’ . So why can’t we be . We are no less intelligent . We can also try to break or surpass the existing records .

Sunil Gavaskar broke Don Bradman’s record

66 û

and SachinTendulkar surpassed Gavaskar’s record even.

Who knows one of us can break that record even. My Dad says M.S Dhoni belongs to the same school where he studied and he could make it to the top of the Indian Cricket .

So dear fellow mates , I urge you as the former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill had quoted ‘ Never never never Give up ‘Always remember, Beyond Darkness there is always a light .

THANK YOU

Our Dear Animals Anyasha Das

“I am in favor of animal rights as well as human rights. That is the way of a whole civilized human being.”

― Abraham Lincoln

Animals are awesome to look at, but it must not be nearly as exciting for them as it is for us. These animals are meant to run in free deserts and jungles, but not to keep behind the cages or glass walls. Even we restricted sometimes to the smallest of play spaces and keep them in their artificial, makeshift habitats. Many times children are banging on the glass and cameras flashing in their faces. Is it not inhumane to keep these wild animals behind bars in these conditions?

They were in the wilderness and should live and die in the environment. They should make their homes/nests in natural places just as we have made our houses. Its absurd to think that we should be so pompous to pick and choose animals out of the wild to lock in cages for people to come by and look at. I mean, just because we are higher in the food chain, we think we can do anything we want.

I do not agree that animals should be kept in zoos.

Zoos teach people that is acceptable to keep animals in

û 67

captivity, bored, cramped, lonely and far from their natural habitat.

Most people go to the zoo purely for entertainment and I strongly believe that animals were not created for that purpose only. Zoos claim to educate people to preserve climates that they are not adapted to.

Animals don’t speak anything but that doesn’t mean that they are happy with this.

They also have some fundamental rights and the most important is the right to live in freedom. We can’t stay in cage how do we expect them to?

We sometimes pet animals in our house for our entertainment purposes, Are they our toys that we cage them? We enjoy and make them the laughing stock!!!

And even researchers have found that the animals who live in cage die faster than those live in their natural habitat.

If you want to put someone behind bars put the convicted murderer or criminals not these innocent loving animals.

68 û

The assumption that animals are without rights and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance is a positively outrageous example of crudity and barbarity in the society.

Now Time has come ,We must fight against the spirit of this unconscious cruelty of putting these poor animals behind bar and demonstrate a civilized society.

Protect their rights ,Then we can be a civilized human being.

Remember we the Human beings are a part of the animal kingdom. Hence “Know that the same spark of life that is within you, is within all of our animal friends, the desire to live is the same within all of us...”

The greatness of a nation is its moral progress can be judged the way its animals are treated. The earth is made for all Beings , not for only Human Beings.

Nostalgia to Odisha Divyanshee Ram

Hi, I am Diyanshee. I belong to a small township “Raruan” of district of Mayurbhanj in Odisha.

I am going to write something about the true story of an Odiya kid who always lives in the inner of my heart.

We have been enjoying several memorable moments in Utkalika family, connected to Odiya culture, know about Odisha through Utkalika. My dad explained me, in past, Odisha lost its political identity for nearly four centuries. After the last Odiya ruler, King Mukunda Dev, Odisha had been ruled by several outsiders for almost four centuries. Thanks to our strong and rich socio-cultural heritage and jubilant ancient history, because of which the identity of Odiya culture remained untouched, even though with lots of ups and downs during the long geo-political dark patch.

We feel proud for our great Odiya leaders and my tributes to those Odiya heroes like Utkal Gaurav Madhubabu, Utkalmani Gopobandhu, Kavivar Radhanath, Maharaja Krushna Chandra, Maharaja

û 69

Shri Ramachandra, VyasakabiFakir Mohan Senapati, Pallikabi Gangadhar Meher, Karmaveera Gourishankar Ray and many others for their decades long tireless efforts to regain geo-political identity of Odisha. We say today proudly, we are Odiyas, only because of these blessed sons of Odisha.

Now come back to the true story of a Odiya kid in the inner of my heart, who took birth away from Odisha, who almost does not know how to speak Odiya, but have a great attraction to visit Odisha in vacation, play with the kids there, feeling extraordinary freshness in the air there and enjoy swimming in the river having crystal clear water. My heart automatically becomes heavy during coming back to Jubail after the vacation. I always take sometimes to overcome from the nostalgia for my days in Odisha. This is not only me, but the collective feeling of the kids of my age group in Utkalika family. So this is the story on behalf of all those kids.

I have privileged to visit with my parents different places in India and abroad at this small age. I really enjoyed the vacations with my parents at different places.

On a school off day, I was thinking, where my parent are

70 Ăť

planning to take me in coming summer vacation. I was overjoyed by thinking to enjoy the vacation somewhere in an overseas site. Suddenly I feel, the Odiya kid from inner of my heart, would like to speak something. She said, Hey Divyanshee ! You have seen many places in India and abroad, but ever you see closely Odisha. Odisha is full of natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beauties and cultural heritage sites. Most important is, lot of places still intact from the tourist crowd.

Being an Odiya girl, you must have to explore Odisha.

You must have to learn and speak Odiya.I realized this is true. I thanked the Odiya girl in my heart and request her to stay always there with me. My parents promised me to show at least one new place in Odisha, whenever we will visit Odisha in vacation and help me to learn and speak Odiya. I appeal every parents of kid of my age to accomplish their wish to explore Odisha and help them to learn and speak Odiya. Also this is my last request to all the kids of my age, to keep the cute Odiya kid forever in your heart.

Holi Celebration in Saudi Arabia Balaram Baliarsingh

Holi is one of the major festivals of India. Holi is celebrated with enthusiasm and gaiety on the full moon day in the month of Phalgun which is the month of March as per the Gregorian calendar. Everybody gets delighted at the arrival of Holi as the season itself is so gay. Holi is also called the Spring Festival - as it marks the arrival of spring the season of hope and joy. The gloom of the winter goes as Holi promises of bright summer days.

Holi festival may be celebrated with various names and people of different states might be following different traditions.

But, what makes Holi so unique and special is the spirit of it which remains the same throughout the country and even across the globe, wherever it is celebrated.

We celebrated the Holi in Saudi Arabia with our Odia people at one of the beach camp. It was very unique and special one, we make the day with full of colors, It was a fun loving day with different Odia sweets and lasi.

People are in a happy mood. They sprinkle colored water on another. They smear their faces with colored powders.

Children spray colored water on the passes-by.

Even some old people are mad with joy. All people are in a jolly mood. They forget social distinctions. They mix with all freely. We sing, dance, and jump on the same day with loud music. After playing Holi, we get together again in the afternoon to celebrate the occasion with delicious food and desserts. At evening people go back to their home with sweet memories.

We wish we make this kind of celebration for every occasion and get together with our Odia people, It gives the feeling that we are at our home land. Thank you for Utkalika core team for arranging the same.

Jagannath Temple, Puri Manasi Biplab Mohanty

Jagannath Temple, Puri Other Name : Shri Mandir, Bada Deula , Devanagari.

Date Built : 1161.

Creator : Anantavarman Chodaganga.

Festivals : RathaYatra, ChandanYatra, SunaBesa, Nabakalebara.

The Jagannath Temple of Puri is a sacred Vaishnava temple dedicated to Lord Jagannath and located on the eastern coast of India, at Puri in the state of Odisha. The temple is an important pilgrimage destination and is particularly visited by devotees of Supreme Lord Sri Krishna and is one of the Char Dham pilgrimages that any one is expected to make in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifetime. The major construction of Jagannath temple was initiated by king Chodagangadeva( known for also building the Sun temple of Konark and several major Shaivism temples).

And was completed by his grandson Anangabhimadeva in the late 12th century.

Ăť 77

• It is observed that the flag located at the top the temple dome always waves in the opposite direction of air flow.

• A priest climbs the dome of the temple which stands as tall as a 45 story building and changes the flag every day since 1800 yrs. as a part of a ritual. If it is not changed any day, the temple must be shut for next 18 yrs.

• The Sudarshan Chakra standing at the top of temple is 20 feet in height and weights a ton. It said to be visible from every corner of the city and it is installed in such a way that it makes you feel that it is facing toward you irrespective of the place you are in.

• The Chakra was brought all way up and installed on the Gopuram 2000 yrs ago. The engineering techniques used at that time still remain as a mystery today.

• Take any place on earth, on daytime the breeze from sea comes to land and the opposite occurs in the evening but in Puri it is observed to be just the reverse.

• It is surprise that nothing flies above the temple.

No planes, not even birds. There is no scientific explanation for this yet.

• The temple is constructed in such a way that the shadow of the main dome of the temple cannot be observed at any given time.

• There is one saying about the prasadam served in the temple. The count of devotees visiting the temple varies from2000 to 20,000 depending on the day but the quantity of Prasadam cooked in the temple remains exactly the same throughout the year any given day yet none of it goes insufficient or wasted.

• The prasadam is cooked in pots using firewoods.

Exactly 7 pots are put one on top of another.

Surprisingly, the top most pot is cooked first followed by the bottom pots in order.

• There is a ocean near the temple. When you are entering the Simhadwaram( the main door ) of the temple you can clearly hear sound of the ocean, now once you passed the Simhadwaram just take a turn and walk back in the same direction you came.

You cannot hear the ocean until you come out of the temple.

78 û

• There is a annual Chariot festival held at Puri and it is performed with 2 sets of chariots ( 3 in each set ).

As there is a river flowing in between the Jagannath Temple and Mausi Maa temple, the first sets of chariots used to bring the deities to the river using 3 wooden boats and are then placed in the second set of chariots to reach the Mausi Maa temple.

• Present day structure of Sri Jagannath Temple Puri is very different from the initial design of the temple.

The main temple was first constructed by the Chola kings and the Meghanada Pacheri, Mukha Sala, Nata Mandap, and other assets of the temple were later constructed by the other rulers ruling the area in later times.

• The old idols of the deities are buried on one another and it is said that they disintegrate on their own.

• Every year there is a place just ahead of the Gundicha temple where the procession comes to a stop by itself.

This is a mystery.

• Apart from Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, Lord Subhadra, the Sudarshan Chakra, deities of Sridevi, Madanmohan and Vishwadhatri are also worshipped in the temple.

• The temple itself covers a massive area of 400,00 square feet, A tall wall of 20 feet (6.1m) high known as Meghanada Pacheri surrounds the temple. Another wall surrounds the temple.

The temple is divided into 4 distinct sections : Deula, Vimana Or Garba Griha :

Herer Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Subhadra are placed on Ratnavedi (Throne of Pearls).

• Mukhashala : It is the front porch.

• Nata Mandir/ Natamandap : It is the audience hall or the dancing hall.

• Bhoga Mandap: There is where the daily offerings are made.

WHO ARE ALLOWED TO VISIT: Being a Hindu temple, it is open to Hindus all over India. Initially Hindus of non Indian origin were not allowed entry. But the rules are slowing changing. Those not allowed entry can enjoy the view from the nearby

Raghunandan Library and pay their offerings at the main entrance.

THE TULASI GARDEN : The Tulasi garden is the place where the old idols and newly constructed wooden idols are brought face to face, where the Saligram is removed from the old idol and fitted in the new one for each of the three idols. The transfer of the stone is a physical act done by a sect, the special persons that have been doing this since a long. But the power that is transferred from the old to the stone in the new is a divine force that is actually felt by the very people.

IMPORTANT FESTIVALS: • RathaYatra.

• ChandanYatra

BEST TIME TO VISIT THE TEMPLE:

The best time to visit Puri might be from November to February, due to the favourable weather conditions.

However, if one wants to be part of the famous chariot festival ( or RathYatra) then one might visit the temple during the months of June-July.

OPENING TIME OF THE TEMPLE:

The temple remains open from 5.00am in the morning till 12.00 am at night.

NAVA KALEVARA: Nava means new, Kalevara means body. This sacred event is associated with creation of new images of the deities. The old images are buried at KoiliValikuntha.

It is not done every year, rather is follows a cycle of one lunar month to Ashadha to another. As a result this special occasion can happen once in 8, 12 or 18 yrs.

My Paradigm Shift Pyari Mohan Mallick

That was a bright Sunday morning on a subway in New Delhi. People were sitting quietly on the velvet like grassy ground. Some reading newspaper some lost in thoughts, some resting with their eyes closed. It was entirely calm, composed and peaceful scene best suited to the weekend holiday.

Then suddenly, a man with his children entered the subway car. The children were so loud and rambunctious that instantly the whole climate changed.

The man sat down next to me and closed his eyes apparently oblivious to the situation. The children were yelling back and forth, throwing things here and there, even grabbing people’s papers. It was totally disturbing yet the man sat next to me did nothing.

It was difficult for me not to feel irritated. I could not believe that he could be so insensitive as to let his children run wild like that and do nothing about it, taking no responsibility at all. It was easy to notice that everyone else on the subway felt irritated too.

So finally, with what I felt was unusual patience and restraint, I turned to him and said, “Sir, your children

are really disturbing a lot of people. I wonder if you couldn’t control them a little more?”

The man lifted his gaze as if to come to consciousness of the situation for the first time and said softly, “Oh,you are right. I guess I should do something about it. We just came from the hospital where their mother died about an hour ego. I don’t know what to think, and I guess they don’t know how to handle it either.”

anyone imagine what I felt at that moment?“Your wife just died? Oh, I’m so sorry! What Can I do to help?

Suddenly all my irritations were vanished and I was sobbing within me. My heart was filled with the man’s pain and agony as the feelings of sympathy and compassion flowed freely. My paradigm shifted suddenly. I saw the things differently, and because I saw differently, I thought differently, I felt differently and I behaved differently.

Moral of the story: It is obvious that if we want to relatively minor changes in our lives, we can perhaps focus on our attitude and behaviors. But to make significant, quantum change in our life, we need to work on our basic paradigms, from which our attitude and behaviors flow.

Rasagola vs. Roshogulla: Who’ll win?

Akash Jena

A few months ago, few of my friends and I were discussing regional sweets. There was a talk about Peda, GulabJamun, Kheer and KajuKatri.

We discussed the regional variants and how each added a twist to the taste of the sweet. Eventually, it came to the point where I was asked about my favorite sweet. Replying that I had no favorite (as desserts are amazing in every form), though I was nostalgic about few. Sweets that reminded me of home such as Rasagola or Peda were the ones I liked. Immediately, I was stopped by a friend who asked, “Wow I love Rasagola. It’s an amazing Bengali sweet!”. And there went the spark, initiating a reaction not just in me, but also for all Odias alike. I immediately responded that ‘Rasagola’, wasn’t Bengali but Odia in origin, and how Bengali took the claim off the Odias. Then, I went on a long historical explanation of how Odisha was part of Bengal Presidency, and the first confectionary (sweet shop) opened in Kolkata, in which the owner recreated and patented the PahadaRasagola to the modern white ‘Roshogulla’ that we commonly know today. Eventually not heeding to any explanation, he just smacked me with a sly reply, “How come when we open any Haldirams packet of this sweet, labels say the history is traced back to Bengal, not Odisha?”. I couldn’t fight on this topic because I knew arguing on the disputable claimants of our state’s famous sweet would lead to likewise argument on who came first, the chicken or the egg?

û 81

Culture is not just defined by dress sense, speech, or even food. It is also not held or preserved by various claimants shouting about their devotion to the motherland, chest thumping or some other form of cultural patriotism.

Living in America, I can see that within few months of staying in the South as compared to North, there is a complete change of regional culture. Dress sense and language remained the same, and so did the food to a great extent. So, what was the difference? Because by clearly observing India and America from afar and in close, the logical conclusion that the differences were in the nuances. Though India has very separate languages and dress sense, there is a commonality to some sense.

And still, in this commonality, there are those nuances, which even in the void of consideration for different languages and dress sense, each region could still claim to be different. For example, Dal is a staple diet of Indians in general. However, up northwest, it is more chana dal thick spicy gravy; wherein Gujarat, it is a sweet relish. In South India, it is the tangy Sambar to all the wise different stuffed vegetable Dalma in Odisha. Same goes for our various accents when we speak Hindi. So, these nuances do form a difference in identity and create diversity, and hence as Indians, we all celebrate it. Therefore regardless of Odia or not, we can then at least respect the Bengalis’ way of crafting of our Rasagola into their ‘Roshogulla’, despite the taste. Because, compared to our mild sweet, the roshogulla tastes more of a diabetic-inducing sponge, but then again, credit should be given where credit is due.

But leaving the respect and nostalgia, I still again ponder on why hasn’t our way of making sweets or just about anything been recognized? This fight is not just about our sweets, but also about how we are not recognized for our classical dances, dress sense, or lifestyle altogether. The reason doesn’t boil to not

82 û

enough activism, but simple and crude capitalism and trade. Bengali roshogulla didn’t become famous because people all across India or the world came to visit Kolkata and taste the sweet. That would be too much walking and trains generally at that time transported loot instead of beings. But leaving the catharsis aside, the real reason why this Bengali version of the sweet became famous is that it was put in tin, sealed, shipped or transported to places all across India. People soon came to love the spongy taste disregarding the insulin taken afterward, and this sweet became wholesale popular. And what did we do? Currently, there is government initiative of our state to declare (and to some extent, it has been) Rasagola to a geographical origin (GI) status. And YaY! We are having also having Odia Rasagola Dibasa to commemorate our state wide devotion to this sweet.

There lies our problem. We can’t force others to like our culture, but market it until it becomes name to say.

Nor we can expect the government to do everything for us, like a nanny. It is our individual responsibility also to spread the little great things that we adore. Odisha as a state formed in 1936, but as a living breathing ecosystem of values and lifestyle, despite incursions and amalgamations, goes way back thousands of years. Surely then our culture didn’t erode without a unitary state to preserve it, so why now? Marketing not just for profit, but also for the satisfaction of consumers (which will also include the common Odia) who would love the new facets that we bring, is the solution to our problem; not angry chest thumping activism. As they say, Neapolitans (Italians) invented pizza, but New York showcased it to the world. So, let me just paraphrase a quote of JFK to bring greater nuance to this read, “Ask not what the region can do for you, but what you can do for it.” This is thought for not just us to ponder, but also for all and our future to come.

How My Life Changed !!

Pari Baliarsingh

Every girl is her father’s lil princess n I was no less. The apple of my parents eyes, I was a carefree girl.

Fell in love with someone who was better than the man in my dreams. Someone who turns the world around for me.

So who could be a better life partner than him? Married for more than 2years, I am the happiest person on the earth.

He is mature, responsible n very caring while I am childlike, innocent n bubbly. Nowhere in my deepest mind was I planning to have a baby even though he had expressed his desire to hold a lil angel in his arms.

I don’t know if it was the fear of how I’ll even bear the baby or was it that I wanted to enjoy my carefree life more, the actual reason of not having one. However it came as a shock more than a surprise when one evening I got to know that my womb has been invaded by a lil alien. I was tensed, worried and anxious. One thing I was sure was that my husband was the happiest person on the earth.

It didn’t take me long to start loving and accepting this tiny lil creature in me. And I think somewhere the credit goes to my husband. Because he started loving me and taking care of me even more than before. His love made everything easy for me. So finally I started to enjoy

and experience the happiness that had come in because of our lil angel.

The first trimester was not a bed of roses but a bed of thrones! I could not eat, sleep or relax. All I wanted was to be freed from this misery. But as months passed I felt my baby’s first movement. It made me realize that a tiny life is inside my womb craving for all my love and attention. I realized that I was her cape of protection.

I still don’t know why we Indians want a boy first or may be only a boy! All I wanted was a girl child and my husband wanted what I wanted. I came up with beautiful girl baby names. That’s when I started realizing that our peeps back in hometown were expecting me to give them a boy. Trust me (and I know many would have gone through this) when I say I was in so much pressure. My desire to have a girl was somewhere suppressed below by my own fear of not having a boy.

As days and months passed it was time for me to go home. Separation from your love is the worst form of love! Been taken care of so much by my husband I was heartbroken to leave him because I thought I ll not even survive a single breath without him. Well I did succeed to survive but it was hell of a time. The last trimester was the worst. I started counting the days because it had started to eat me up.

û 83

Finally the day I would see my angel arrived. I could sense tension in the room. The foremost questionis it going to be a normal delivery or c- section? Well I had prepared myself for the worst scenario. But I guess my baby had already decided not to trouble her mother much and came out through a c- section.

Something magical happens when you give yourself a chance to be a mother. Holding your baby for the first time is the BEST feeling and nothing in the whole wide world can replace it. My fear and my sadness of not having a boy vanished as soon as I saw her face- my Barbie. All I could think was,’ if she had been a boy, I wouldn’t have been so happy’. My husband who couldn’t make it for the special day of our lives was so happy because it was ‘ my dream’ to have a girl and he could see my dream coming true.

Well now comes the reality check. Back from the hospital, it was sleepless nights for me, as I was determined to take care of my baby on my own and not trouble anyone.

Nevertheless my mother was a great help and support.

84 û

Coming back to KSA, I was worried because I was not coming alone this time. I was accompanied by my lil angel. The fear if I could not take care of her and do her needs. Well all I would says being a mother is learning about the strengths you didn’t know you had and dealing with fear that you didn’t know that even existed. God has blessed me with a beautiful daughter but also with a husband who has an even more beautiful heart. A heart that takes care of my angel and me like no one would. A heart that understands that I need help, support and care. A heart that doesn’t compromise to any of our needs. I would not be a wonderful mother and a wife , if not for you. Thank you for bringing the best out of me.

Now all I am looking forward is to the bright future of our lil Barbie. To give her the best education, life and happiness she would even ask for. To every little soul who is reading this, bless my lil girl.

`I am proud of many things in life but nothing beats being a mother.

“PALA” – A Traditional Folk Band of Odisha, Emblem of Glorious Legacy of Odiya Culture Mrs. Anita Ram

“Pala” a traditional folkgroup performance of singing and dancing form of Odisha, can be expressed well in modern days as “traditional Folk Band or Orchestra of Odisha”, is today on the way of extinction. Today, “Pala” the 400 year old folk theater form is struggling to survive. For years this form of theatre performance symbolizes the harmonization and amalgamation of two predominant religion of Odisha – the Hindus and the Muslims. The origin of “Pala” dates back to the Mughal periods when there were efforts to bring harmony between the Hindus and Muslims started by the great Mughal Emperor “Akbar the Great” in 16th Century A.D. The harmonizationof religion reflected in the beginning of the Pala itself, when the performance started with a worship of ‘Satyapir’ – “SatyanarayanSwamy” of the Hindus and “Pir” of the Muslims. The form initiated in Bengal but flourished and gained popularity better in Odisha.At the vary initial stage, Pala was only the musical narration of epics, basically musical narration of SkandaPurana describing 16 stages of life of lord Vishnu.As the folk tradition gained more popularity in Odisha, it had a transitional phase from pure musical genus to ideal combination of music, literature, epics, singing and reciting to attract the mass population. On the latter stage, even the subjects related to socio politics, critics to the events against humanity and many more epical and fictional stories were addressed in from of Pala. Further to popularize, classical dance form Odissiand comedies were also introduced in the performance of Pala.

The Pala performer team consists of 6 to 7 participants, with the “Gayaka” or “Gana” (main Singer) as leader of the team.

He uses a “Chamara (flying whisk)” made up of a long brass handle with hairs of the Nilgai (Asian Antelope) tail fixed on the top of the brass handle. The Gayak is an excellent actor with multi-dimensional talents to narrate the subject in

û 85

singing and prose form. While singing or explaining he brings in drama to heighten the appeal. For example, at one time he indicates the thunderbolt of Lord Indra, at another he defines the lyrical movement of waves.

He uses his Chamaraas probe to express the different situations in the total performance. The costume of the Gayakislike traditional royal nobility. To be a good Gayak, one has to devote years in studying and research of epics. The Gayak should well verse of our ancient language Sanskrit. He has to generate the art within himself to sing and dance at the same time, which must get audience applause.

The other team member of a Pala group, one must be a “Bana” or drum player, who plays the Mridanga or traditional drum of Odisha. In remaining, 4 to 5 are called as “Paliyas” who follow and support the “Gayaka” during singing and explaining. One of the senior “Paliya” played the role of “Sri-Paliya” or head follower who plays the large cymbals called “Kartal” during performance. The other “Paliyas” plays with the small cymbals. One “Paliya” optionally may be a comedian in the team. The costume of “Sri-paliya” is like a high profile senator in a royal court and other “Paliyas” have similar to members of royal court.

86 û

Pala performance has two form of performance. One is performing by sitting and another is performing by standing and changing in body language according to the theme and situations of singing and explanation. The latter one is the mostly popularize Pala performance. There is another challenging form of Pala performance called “Badi-Pala”, in which two groups performed one by one and challenging to each other for excellence of performance.

Pala at one time considered as one of the most attractive and knowledge form of stage performance.

Many prominent Pala groups from Odisha performed internationally and get applause from international audiences. Also the royal courts during preindependent India sponsors Pala groups and made the famous folk form of art lively.

To promote and save the “Pala” art form, Odisha SangitNatak Academy has been organizingstate level “Pala Utsav” on yearly basis in collaboration with Department of Tourism & Culture, Government of Odisha. “Pala’’, the folk art form of traditional Odisha band” – has been the glorious legacy of Odisha. It must be survived andhope to see bright days for this famous folk art.

Two Great Historical Events: “The Great Kalinga War” and “Formation of Separate Odisha Province”, Shaped Modern Day Odisha Mr. Radheshyam Ram

Modern day Odisha is a gift to us because of the persuasive cultural heritage which has been bonding and uniting Odiyas from ancient time onward. The history of Odisha is evidentially known to us from “The Great Kalinga War” dated back 261 B.C. where our brave “Paikas” were heroically demonstrated great act of patriotism by mass sacrificeof their livesfor saving the mother land of Kalinga after fought harsh battle against Magadha Samrat Ashoka, but the heritage of Odisha is even older than that. There is no substantiation to prove the starting of the era of Odiya culture and civilization,but considering the epical information and the great maritime trade evidences of “Odiya Banikas” found from various excavation sites, enough to prove that Odiya culture dated back far more than 700 B.C.. There were few instances when Odiya culture passed through dark patches of extinction, way to lost its existence and forced to submerge with other linguisticprovinces, butthe blessings of our deep rooted cultural heritage saved our entity. Not very far away, Odisha during the British rule lost its identity by parted in Bihar, Bengal, Madras and Central provinces. Thanks to the everlasting cultural heritage and enormous efforts

û 87

ofgreat Odiya heroes like Utkal Gaurav Madhusudan, Utlak Mani Gopabandhu, Kavivara Radhanath and Vyasa Kavi Fakir Mohan, as a result oftheir lifetime selfless efforts, Odisha regained its identity and sustained its heritage. As I feel, the efforts of our leaders to make Odisha a separate state has no less weightage compare to the mass sacrifice of life of brave “Paika” warriors in Great Kalinga War. The war was fought in 261 B.C. to sustain the identity of Odisha which was eventually lost, whereas the successful efforts were made by our Odiya heroes from 1876 to 1936 to regain the identity.

There is a time gap of almost 2,200 years between these two historical events, but both has been made us very proud, one was the symbol of extreme act of bravery, patriotism and utmost love for motherland even on sacrifice of life, and the other one wasthe extreme efforts to save the cultural identity of Odiyas and our mother land Odisha from the path of extinction. The supreme sacrifice of Odiya Paikas transforms “Chandashoka” to “Dharmashoka”, a rare complete transformation of human character, resulted in existence of a great people’s ruler of India, whereas the supreme efforts of our heroes and leader to form a separate Odisha seeded the foundation of modern day Odisha. Time has its own way to write the path forward. If the Kalinga war was not fought with bravery, transformation of Chandashoka had not been foreseen and as a result Kalinga probably lost its identity by that time itself after merging in Magadha. We have to be very thankful to those Paika warriors for their supreme sacrifice to sustain our cultural heritage.Although they lost the war, but their sacrifice evolved a post war leader with complete transformed human being in form of Dharmashoka, a truly people’s king, who shaped Kalinga with its own identity which has been continued for centuries to make our cultural heritage deep rooted and has been provided longevity to it. Really being anOdiya of today’s modern day Odisha, I feel very proud for these two historical events, which shaped our entity, existence and strengthen our cultural heritage forever.

How Utkalika helps me connect with my Oriya Identity Miss Sara Sheikh

Growing up in a country thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very far and very different from the place I was born , there was little I knew about by roots, until three years ago when I first attended Utkalika 5. I was surprised to see that are so many Oriya people living in the eastern province and I knew nothing about them.

It was for the first time I heard so many people speaking in Odia outside of Odisha and I felt an instant connection with the language.

This was the beginning of my journey of selfdiscovery that made me research deeper into the history

of Odisha and the more I read, the more proud I became of who I was and where I came from.

I made it a point to attend Utkalika every year and through it I have been able to meet people of my community with whom I now share a special and close bond.

It has helped me connect with my heritage, learn about the rich history of Odisha and above all understand my Odia identity. Today I can say that Utkalika is a part of me and I am a part of Utkalika.
