“Empowering the Youth towards togetherness.”
• Our mission is to develop Jain youth with active and creative minds, instigating a sense of
understanding, compassion for others, with courage to act on their beliefs.
• We stress on total development of youth spiritually, morally, intellectually, socially,
emotionally & physically.
• All of you, as parents, know that it is important for children to not only do well in academics
but also explore extra-curricular activities like painting, singing, dancing, theatre, sports and
many other activities. At JAY-HO, we believe that one of their many talents could do
wonders for them, if recognized and encouraged at the right time.
• That's why JAY-HO presents a united talent program - A collection of initiatives aimed at
discovering your child's hidden talent and all-round potential early enough to maximize it.
The program focuses on partnering you in this journey to nurture your children's abilities and
securing their future.
• With a line-up of events throughout the year created & managed by JAY-HO it will be
displayed at right places, seen by the right people so that your child’s talent will not only be
appreciated but also be groomed and sharpened for a brighter future
JAY-HO is an Organisation for the Youth - By the Youth. A step towards achieving unity amongst
all the fellow Jains, irrespective of them being from any “VILLAGE”, “LANGUAGE” or “SECT”.
For us anyone who is JAIN and who is Young (at age or mind) is our member. Today’s Jain youth
is somehow not aware of what is happening around him in Jain Community the main reason not
reading the Jain Publications the reasons for the same are
1.) Language: Since they are published in Gujarati and most English reading youth don’t read it
2.) Content: Most of the youth feel the content in Jain Publications are just too Community Based, Jain
Organisation related or Death news which youth feel aloof from
3.) Appearance: the appearances of such publications are too dull and boring which does not create interest
in youth readers
Keeping all these points in our mind we have designed UTH-N-YNG a youth magazine specially for Jain
Youth with a lot of Information about Jains along with different flavors for youth.

IDEAS OF SMART
INVESTING
We all work hard, make money and we save a part of this money for our future needs. Most people usually put this extra fund either in Savings Bank account or as a Fixed deposit or as a Recurring Deposit. Some people use Chit funds for saving money. Saving money is always good but it’s difficult to call this as an investment. Why you should Invest ?
Inflation is the prime reason! The value of money decreases each moment because of inflation. At present inflation rate in India is around 6%, that means your money is decreasing in value. If you have Rs.100 in your pocket now and you keep it in your pocket as such for 1 year, at the end of year, the 100 rupee note in your pocket will be of value 94 only. You got it ? So instead of saving 100 rupees you lost a part of it and now you have only 94. This is why you should invest your money. Bank Deposits:
Bank deposits are good, you always need to have a decent amount in banks as savings because it’s risk free, offers liquidity and is safe. Bank deposits are better than nothing. A fixed deposit scheme now offers around 7.5% interest
per annum, so this will help you to beat inflation and also get an additional 1.5% valuation on your money every year. On the other hand Savings Bank deposits which offer only 3.5% per annum fails to beat inflation (which is at 6% now), thus results in a net devaluation of 2.5% on your money every year. Yet it’s better than keeping in rackets of your almirah. Why you should invest in Stocks ?
Simple! Stock offers you better returns. All rich people in this world, any one from Warren Buffet, Mukesh Ambani, Rakesh Jhunjunwala, Sunil Mittal, N.R Narayanmurthy, Asim Premji, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs have become super rich (extremely wealthy) because they own and hold stocks of one or more company. Stocks can make you go from thousands to millions but at the same time with risk of loosing that thousands you invested(:)). Got panic? Don’t worry, we can always calculate the risks involved and avoid too risky stocks. I am a supporter of Value Investing philosophy and methods. Stock market is not a place to make quick money or to earn your daily bread. I am not saying you can make quick money from stock market, obviously you can, there are many people who had done that, but it carries a higher risk. You may gain everything or you may loose everything if you try to get rich quick in a stock market. On the other hand value investing offers less risk (most cases calculated risk), offer better value and multiple returns. Let’s take a look at value investing. Note: Investing in a stock means you are buying ownership of that company. Eg: If you invest 10000 rupees and buy 100 shares of Reliance Industries, you become one of many owners of that company. You hold ownership in Reliance Industries worth Rs.10000 or you hold 100 shares of ownership in Reliance.

What is value investing ?
On simple terms it’s about investing in the value of a company. Every company has a balance sheet which depicts a clear cut data about it’s performance, valuation, growth potential and future of the company (not exactly always, we can infer it from balance sheet). Based on our assessment of Financial Balance sheet, we can calculate the value of a company (intrinsic value is the term used by financial analysts), say Rs.xyz, now if the company is traded in the stock market at a price less than our calculated intrinsic value (Rs.xyz), a value investor will buy that stock and keep it in hand (hold) for long term say some 3 or 4 years (that depends on investors logic and his needs). After say some 4 or 5 years, if his judgement was right, the company valuation will increase and it will be traded at a higher price in the stock market, say 3 or 4 times Rs.xyz, now if he sells all his stock, he will make 3 to 4 times return on his money (that he invested 4 years back).

Top 10 Positive Things
about Diabetes
Diabetes is not all
gloom and doom.
There are some
positive things
about Diabetes.
Knowing those
helps
One cope better.
Obviously there are
many health related positives like weight loss, regular
diet, but there is more to it than just health. Let's look
at some key takeaways about Diabetes.
Diabetes can benefit all including you, your family and
your community or a social circle.
Top 10 positive things about Diabetes:-
1) Dietary habits get disciplined: - It's not in human
nature to control the desire to eat favorite junk foods.
Diabetes forces this discipline upon you. Although
reluctantly, everyone will accept that its a good habit
and they always felt the need for it.
2) Weight loss:- As a
Diabetic,1st advice
you will get from all is
to control your sugar
levels. And 2nd is to
lose weight. It's a
major benefit
considering the positives it brings to your health
profile. It reduces risk of acquiring other major
illnesses. Overall fitness level too goes up.
3) Special food demands:- There is a palpable change
in food habits after Diabetes. You get more say
in the daily diet plan and it is often cooked after
consulting you. Hence the prospects of getting your
favourites improve.
4) Improved cooking skills:- Diabetes imposes several
restrictions on many daily food items. Hence,
it forces the homemaker to think out of the box,
innovate. They later go on to make some great new
recipes that are healthier and more delicious. One
would get to taste those recipes otherwise.
5) Family health improves:- While you get more say in
daily diet, your prescribed food is served to the
entire family. Diabetic diet being lighter and healthier
benefits everybody. As the awareness about Diabetes
increases, other members too adopt healthier
lifestyles.
6) Regular health check-ups:- Health when normal is
the most neglected part of life. Few people really
appreciate their good
health. Most take it for
granted. They realize its
value only when
something goes wrong.
This along with high
expenses keeps most
away from regular health
check-ups. After Diabetes, the frequency of health
visits increase. This helps in early diagnosis and proper
treatment of other disorders.
7) Fear of needles decreases:
- Diabetics (especially those
with type I) are forced to take
Subcutaneous
Insulin injections multiple
times daily. Frequent blood
glucose testing also involves needle pricks. Initially it’s
a big hassle. Everyone hates it but after a few days
people get accustomed to it. Thereafter their fear
about needle pricks and injections decreases
substantially.
8) Helps understand people:-
Diabetes, these days is one of the
best conversation starters. It gets
people going. Diabetics get a point
to make while Non-Diabetics find it
intriguing. It piques their interest
to know how you are managing it.
These conversations later turn into
friendly chat and thus the social circle expands.
9) Become motivated in life:- Adversity always brings
the best out of people. Thoughts about Diabetes
cripple people at first. Later people learn about it.
They accept it as a challenge and get motivated to
deal with it.
10) Promotes Social Harmony:- In daily life, normal
health brings many advantages that people take it for
granted. After people get diagnosed with diabetes,
they feel humbled. Their attitude towards the
disabled, handicapped and not so lucky ones change.
Their sensitivity towards social issues increases.
They become more empathetic and develop an urge
to do more.

Guidelines to Help You
with weight Loss
Sometimes it is very hard to lose weight because it
just seems like a losing battle. As with everything
worthwhile, it is just a question of getting motivated
and then planning what you will do to lose those
pounds. Here you will find some points to help you do
this.
Your first step is to motivate yourself. It is easy to
dream but with something like weight loss you need
to get active and start doing. One of the best ways to
motivate you is to look in the mirror and realize that
yes you are fat and need to do something about it
today. This is sometimes hard to do but once you face
up to the fact you can get yourself motivated and
start to take action.
For a woman buying a nice outfit that is one size
smaller can also motivate you. You know that you will
have to lose some weight to get into the outfit. It will
be like a reward when you lose enough to fit into the
outfit.
Friends and family can help you to get motivated.
Forums are sometimes good for support and
motivation as you will find people with the same
problem there. They often have some useful tips to
help you with losing weight.
A food journal can also
help you to stay
motivated as you will be
accountable for your
progress. You can record
the foods you have eaten
and what progress you
have made. It will help
you to see what foods are
effective in losing weight
and which ones to avoid. When you see your progress
you will feel more motivated and understand that you
are working towards your goals.
You should get a calorie counter and see how many
calories you are burning with your exercises. This will
help you to do the most effective exercises and help
you to stay motivated. Once you see the calories you
have burnt you can calculate how many calories you
should be taking in.
Planning is an important part of losing weight. You
should make a plan and write it down. This will keep
you on track and help you to lose weight. It is like
going on a journey and not taking something to guide
you as to which road you should be taking.
You should create goals and reward yourself when
you achieve them. Do not use food as a reward or you
may find yourself slipping. You can make your
progress and achievement of goals part of your food
diary. Try not to lose weight too quickly as this is not
good for your body and you can find the weight
coming back. 10 pounds a month is the right ratio to
aim for.
Exercise and
healthy eating go
hand in hand when
it comes to weight
loss. So remember
to exercise on a
daily basis and eat
healthy food. You
should try to eat 6
small meals per
day instead of 3 big ones to make sure that your
metabolism increases. Eat plenty of fiber as this will
keep you from feeling hungry.
Try to eliminate junk food.

So, you want to make your own candles? Candle making is a popular hobby today. If you
have the proper equipment and tools, it's quite easy and far less expensive than
purchasing candles from a candle, party or department store.
Essential Equipment and Tools
Melting System. Never use a microwave oven or direct heat to melt candle wax. The best
and safest method, especially for a beginner, is to use a double boiler or a Presto Kitchen
Kettle. Heres how to melt candle wax in a double boiler:
• Fill the bottom pot of the double boiler 2/3 full of water.
• Grate wax with an old cheese grater and place in the top pot.
• Boil the water and allow the wax to melt.
• Never leave a double boiler unattended when melting wax. Water evaporates quickly
when boiling and the wax then becomes a fire hazard.
The best and safest method for melting candle wax is with a Presto Kitchen Kettle. These are available at most major departments stores and are thermostat controlled. This method prevents wax from becoming overheated. Scales. Kitchen scales are great for measuring candle wax and other ingredients. Thermometer. You'll need a thermometer to test the temperature of the melting candle wax. The thermometer should measure heat between 100 and 350 degrees Fahrenheit. A candy thermometer works well. Ladle. A stainless steel ladle is perfect for removing hot candle wax from the melting system. Pouring cup. An old glass measuring cup is perfect to use to pour melted candle wax into the molds.

Wax. Use quality paraffin wax for best results when making candles. Do not use canning
wax. Paraffin wax can be purchased at most craft stores. Wicks. Wicks are available in a wide range of materials and sizes. The best wicks for candle making are braided cotton wicks that have been specially treated for quality burning. This type of wick gives your candle many more hours of burning life. Quality wicks can be purchased at most craft stores and they also come in candle making kits. Dye. Dye comes in every hue of the rainbow. Only a small amount of dye has to be added for light colored candles. If you wish candles to be a darker color, add more dye. You can use dye to make candles that match your décor perfectly. Never use crayons to color wax, as this type of wax will clog the wick. Candle dye is inexpensive and can be purchased at most craft and department stores that handle candle making supplies. Molds. Candle molds are what determine the shape of your candles. They come in a variety of materials, shapes and sizes. Plastic candle molds are the least expensive but cannot tolerate wax that's been heated to more than 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Metal molds are expensive but last for years. They're sturdy and durable and can tolerate high wax temperatures. Most craft and candle supply stores carry a variety of candle molds, including novelty molds. You can also use household items, such as flower pots, baby food jars, coffee jars milk cartons and novelty jars. Use your imagination to find molds right in your own home. Mold seal. Mold seal holds the wick in place when making pillar candles. This prevents the wax from escaping around the wick. If mold seal isn't available, use plumber's putty around the wick to keep melted wax from escaping. Blow dryer. A blow dryer or heat gun can assist you in covering surface imperfections. They can also be used to preheat metal molds before pouring the wax. This gives the finished candle a glossy finish. A blow dryer is great for ridding gel candles of bubbles. Once you have assembled all of the necessary candle making equipment and tools, melt the wax, set the wick and pour your first candle. The results will amaze you. Once you have perfected your candle making method, you will be able to make candles for every special occasion and holiday.
