Sri.Sattiraju Laxmi Narayana , famous by his pen name Bapu, was born on 15th dec 1933 to sri venu gopala rao and smt suryakantham , in Narsapur, West Godavari, Andhra Pradesh .He set a new classical, social and comed trend in telugu literature and art fields. Bapu, is a man of many talents.Bapu began contributing story illustration, magazine covers, cartoons, comic strips to English, Telugu, Tamil periodicals from 1945. Bapu is a law graduate from Madras University in 1955. Bapu joined as political cartoonist for the newspaper Andhra Patrika in 1955. Bapu is also a proficient graphic artist and had worked in Advertising agencies as a senior artist in J. Walter Thomson, as Art Director in Efficient Publicities and F.D. Stewarts - Chennai. Bapu later went on to become a designer, movie director and a popular painter.
Bapu has also introduced a new cursive writing in Telugu. This font is his own handwriting and reflects the same simplicity he exhibits in his art. His main achievements are the production of an illustrated book of Ramayana for children, over a hundred exhibitions and ‘one-man shows' of his artwork were held all over Andhra Pradesh and also at the National Film Theatre, London in 1978 and at the Telugu Conferences held in the U.S.A. in 1978, 1985, 1989, 1992, 1995 and 1996. Many exhibitions and seminars held on his paintings till now have all registered an unforgettable memory to the visitors & viewers.
Bapu entered into cine field with Mr. Mullapudi Venkata Ramana and was an assistant producer of some movies. Bapu started directing in 1967 and the movies under his direction are famous for classical and lyrical charm. Bapu has so far directed 49 films, social and mythological; in Telugu and Hindi.The liveliness in his paintings are real portrayals of the artists in the movies directed by him. His debut film "saakshi" was screened at the Tashkent (ussr) film festival in 1968.

Ramana

Mullapudi Venkata Ramana (born 1931) is a Telugu story writer. He is versatile in penning both heart-touching and rib-tickling dialogues. It is a known fact that Ramana's word and Bapu's line are made for each other.One whips the pen in broad strokes, the other wields the pen in sharp words. One infuses life through strokes while the other sustains it through words.They lead their life tied to each other through their natures. They are one mind operating in two entities.For a team of so many achievements and accomplishments, they go by a simple tag name Bapu-Ramana.
Ramana’s association with Bapu on a career plane completes 60 years. They first met in 1942 in P.S. High School, Madras. They studied there in standards V and VI and then continued schooling at Kesari High School.Ramana’s first short story Amma Maata Vinakapothe was published in 1945 in Bala, a children's magazine published by Radio Annayya (Nyayapathi Raghava Rao),he was 14 then. Bapu illustrated the story. That was the beginning of their career as a writer-producer -illustrator- filmmaker duo”.
While Bapu achieved much of his fame sticking to a subtle style of artistic elegance, Ramana announced his entry through a bunch of talkative characters, who try to make no sense out of the sensible world around them, because of their askew point of view. Ramana is the dialogue, story and screenplay writer for many of the movies that came as a Bapu-Ramana combination. He provided an able foil, providing script/dialogue that suited bapu's visuals and this celebrated friendship and professional associatioon gave many good cinemas.
Beginning as an illustrator-story writer team and then turning into a film-director-writer duo, they have contributed immensely to the enrichment of Telugu cultural ethos through literature and cinema. When one mentions Bapu, then one is bound to mention Ramana's name too and vice versa. If Bapu had received an honorary doctorate from Sri Venkateswara University last year his alter ego Mullapudi Venkataramana received the honours this year. All the other honours including the Raghupathi Venkaiah award the inseparable twins of Telugu cinema shared between them.
When ever the renowned duo of Bapu and Ramana come together for a project, viewers are glued to the screen. The celebrated team now has recreated their magic on the small screen with a mega serial Bhagavatham (mythological serial on ETV) which, in a very short time, has scaled the popularity charts.

Friends u can download and read these self help books... these book can help you in building your career for your selves...

PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT

“In the era of competition, employers are searching for aim oriented people rather than money-oriented. So strike a balance between the two by cultivating your skills and knowledge to match the requirements”

DEVELOP A TRIM LOOK

“An aspirant should choose that subject only in which he/she has full command but what about PERSONALITY”

COME LET’S DISCOVER THE TRUTH OF PERSONALITY

You have to develop and acquire a strong, forceful, favorable, and successful personality to function as an effective and capable leader. An individual’s personality is made up of several factors and essentially, it depends on how the individuals reacts to situation and people and what impression and impacts he creates on others during and after the process. The person enjoying a successful personality invariably makes a favorable impression and impact he produces is forceful. Unconsciously you are influenced and waged by ideas, views and opinions of such a successful personality.

And for you too, it is fairly easy to develop a successful personality. All you need is keenness, interest and sustained effort. Let us now examine the areas to which one should pay attention for this purpose..

Although outward appearance and bearing by themselves alone do not make up the personality frame of the individual they do account for the initial or first impression. And it is always advantages to win a favorable first impression. Besides, a favorable first impression will help you to win over others easily and quickly.

“Children is talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives”You will be starting with your right foot in and with a lot of advantage.Does your initial impression depend entirely and solely on your natural physical features such as your height, build, complexion, color of your eyes, substance and color of your hair, length of your muscle and so on?
A moments reflection and your experience will tell you that it is not so. It is what you do with such assets that really matter.

In your personal appearance, your dress plays a vital part. You need not have to go in for the costly, superior, dazzling and colorful attires. They need not be brand new or conform to latest fashion. But they should be clean, neat and well fitting. Good attire must fit you and it must suit the occasion. If it is a formal occasion like an interview you must dress in a formal manner. If it is an informal occasion you can dress in an informal manner. You should not appear half clad or ill clad. One should not convey the impression that he has slept in his clothes. Simplicity does not mean that you must appear in rags. Fair dress includes your footwear also. Your shoes must be polished, neat and clean. You must ensure that the shoes are not torn, the heels are not worn out and seam is not given way..

It has been rightly said, “apparel oft proclaims the man”. If your clothes are well tailored, neat and clean, they will definitely convey some favorable ideas on same apparel of your personality trait such as organization habit, systematic approach, disciplined behavior, method, neatness, carefulness etc.

Along with your dress you must also take care of your grooming. Your haircut and style should be attended to. You must go in for a hairstyle, which may enhance your appearance. Whether you should support moustaches or beard depends as to whether they will add to your personality from the appearance angle.

Next comes your personal hygiene. No bad smell should come from your mouth, body or clothes. You must ensure that your hands, fingers and nails are clean. They do influence the initial impression created by your general appearance.

“Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of peace”Next to clothes, our appearance is influenced by the way we conduct and carry ourselves, how we move about, walk, stand or sit down. We must stand straight and walk briskly with firm and confident steps.
Our shoulders should be pulled up and not drooping and hand held erect and not bent over toes. Always look at the other person’s in the eye with warmth and friendliness. Your eyes invariably radiate and reflect the feelings of your heart.

The next important thing that contributes a great deal for a good appearance and a favorable initial impact is cheerful, smiling and happy facial countenance. With discipline and systematic practice, you can always present a smiling face and cheerful appearance.
From your own experience you will be able to recall how you feel relaxed and happy when you meet a smiling, cheerful and pleasant person. Like your look and smile, your voice and words also have a tremendous impact on the other individual voice and words are therefore very important.

“One should be honest with oneself and understand the value of time at every point of time during the preparation and thereafter”

“When ignorance gets started it knows no bounds”

The Vedas are considered the earliest literary record of Indo-Aryan civilization, and the most sacred books of India. They are the original scriptures of Hindu teachings, and contain spiritual knowledge encompassing all aspects of our life. Vedic literature with its philosophical maxims has stood the test of time and is the highest religious authority for all sections of Hindus in particular and for mankind in general.
“Veda” means wisdom, knowledge or vision, and it manifests the language of the gods in human speech. The laws of the Vedas regulate the social, legal, domestic and religious customs of the Hindus to the present day. All the obligatory duties of the Hindus at birth, marriage, death etc. owe their allegiance to the Vedic ritual. They draw forth the thought of successive generation of thinkers, and so contain within it the different strata of thought.

Origin of the VedasThe Vedas are probably the earliest documents of the human mind and is indeed difficult to say when the earliest portions of the Vedas came into existence. As the ancient Hindus seldom kept any historical record of their religious, literary and political realization, it is difficult to determine the period of the Vedas with precision. Historians provide us many guesses but none of them is free from ambiguity.
Who wrote the Vedas?It is believed that humans did not compose the revered compositions of the Vedas, which were handed down through generations by the word of mouth from time immemorial. The general assumption is that the Vedic hymns were either taught by God to the sages or that they were revealed themselves to the sages who were the seers or “mantradrasta” of the hymns. The Vedas were mainly compiled by Vyasa Krishna Dwaipayana around the time of Lord Krishna (c. 1500 BC)
Classification of the VedasThe Vedas are four: The Rig-Veda, the Sama Veda, the Yajur Veda and the Atharva Veda, the Rig Veda being the main. The four Vedas are collectively known as “Chathurveda, ” of which the first three Vedas viz., Rig Veda, Sama Veda and Yajur Veda agree in form, language and content.
Structure of the VedasEach Veda consists of four parts – the Samhitas (hymns), the Brahmanas (rituals), the Aranyakas (theologies) and the Upanishads (philosophies). The collection of mantras or hymns is called the Samhita. The Brahmanas are ritualistic texts and include precepts and religious duties. Each Veda has several Brahmanas attached to it. The Upanishads form the concluding portions of the Veda and therefore called the “Vedanta” or the end of the Veda and contains the essence of Vedic teachings. The Upanishads and the Aranyakas are the concluding portions of the Brahmanas, which discuss philosophical problems. The Aryanyakas (forest texts) intend to serve as objects of meditation for ascetics who live in forests and deal with mysticism and symbolism.
The Mother of All ScripturesAlthough the Vedas are seldom read or understood today, even by the devout, they no doubt form the bedrock of the universal religion or “Sanatana Dharma” that all Hindus follow. The Vedas have guided our religious direction for ages and will continue to do so for generations to come. And they will forever remain the most comprehensive and universal of all ancient scriptures.
