Demigods knew that if the demons drank nectar and become immortal, then they will lose their rule over heaven forever. So, When the pot containing nectar was produced from the milky ocean, demigods tricked the demons, took the pot and ran away to hide the pot from the demons. Feeling cheated, all demons in a rage chased gods for full 12 days and 12 nights.  The fight for the Kumbh i.e. the sacred pitcher between the Gods and demons continued for 12 divine days, which is considered to be as long as 12 years for humans. That is why the Kumbh Mela is celebrated once in 12 years. Drops of nectar fell on haridwar on the sixth day, and on Allahabad on the 9th day and in Nashik and Ujjain on the 12th day. So, kumbh mela is celebrated in nashik and Ujjain in the same year or following year within a gap of six months whereas it is celebrated in haridwar and Allahabad after a gap of 6 years and 3 years respectively. ======================= ======================= Aham gacchami (अहम् गच्छामि) - I go Vayam gacchamaha (वयं गच्छामः) - We go  🤔 *HOW IT WORKS* ⁉ ======================= *WORKING OF RADIATOR in VEHICLE'S*  Engines create a lot of heat in their operations - they’re powered off of miniature explosives! To prevent your engine from overheating, your car pumps coolant through your engine - fluid that receives heat, and carries it away from the engine block. The coolant takes the heat generated by your engine, and moves it to your radiator.  The radiator works by passing your coolant through thin metal fins, which allow the heat to flow to the air outside your car much more easily. Sometimes, there is a fan that blows air across the radiator in order to carry the hot air out of your car ======================= 💁🏻‍♂‍ *GK TODAY*  =======================  23 April - World Book and Copyright Day English Language Day is celebrated on 23 April annually and is a United Nations (UN) observance day.

This is due to the low air pressure. Air expands as it rises, and the fewer gas molecules—including nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide—have fewer chances to bump into each other.   Earth’s gravity pulls air as close to the surface as possible. … As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level. This is what meteorologists and mountaineers mean by “thin air.” Thin air exerts less pressure than air at a lower altitude. when warm air rises, it cools off. … Above a certain level, the atmosphere loses heat to space faster than is can be warmed either directly (by sunlight) or indirectly (from the ground) so it gets colder and colder. The human body reacts to high altitudes. Decreased air pressure means that less oxygen is available for breathing. ====================== *LEARN Sanskrit*🙏🏻 =======================  aham pathaami  (अहं पठामि) - I read aham na pathaami  (अहं न पठामि) - I don't read ======================  🤔 *HOW IT WORKS* ⁉ ======================= *How zinc is extracted from its ore?*  The most commonly available ore used for zinc extraction of zinc is called zinc blende (ZnS) for concentration of ore "Froth flotation" process is used, to remove gangue from sulphide ores.

Filter the contents of the pot out into a teapot or individual cups.  Add some honey or other sweetener to it, to give the tea some taste and voila! However, it's best to avoid the sweeteners, if the tea is being consumed primarily to regulate blood sugar levels. 1. Can Help Reduce Blood Sugar.  2. Having Cancer-Fighting Properties.  3.
