Logotherapy, a form of existential therapy, focuses on helping individuals find meaning in their lives. It's based on the idea that the primary human motivation is to discover a purpose, even in the face of suffering.People have a fundamental drive to find meaning in their lives, which can manifest in various forms, such as creativity, love, or service to others. Shifting the focus away from the individual's symptoms and problems and toward their interests, values, and goals, helping them to find meaning outside of themselves. The quest to answer "what is the meaning of life?" has been around since the beginning of time. To find meaning in life can be seen as the primary motivation of each person, and the concept of logotherapy is based on that proposition.This article explores Somerset Maugham's timeless novel "The razor's edge" through the lense of victor frankl's logotherapy - the new age therapy of survival.

Medicated herbal kajal is redefining eye care by blending tradition with therapeutic botanicals, offering both beauty and healing in a single stroke. However, most medicated kajal formulations overlook the risk of microbial growth and potential ocular irritation, compromising long-term safety. Inadequate herbal extract standardization further affects its therapeutic reliability. Here, we develop a herbal medicated kajal with optimized extraction, formulation, and stability to enhance therapeutic efficacy and ocular safety. Key herbal ingredients such as Triphala ghrita, Marigold, Gotu kola, Cashew kernel and botanical oils are examined for their anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and soothing properties. Optimized five extraction techniques, including 1) Ayurvedic Sneha Kalpana process for making triphala ghrita, 2) Steam distillation for fennel seed oil, 3) Soxhlet extraction for cashew & marigold essential oils, 4) Decoction method for extracting coleus, and 5) Microwave assisted extraction to enhance bioactive yield. The study also reviews formulation strategies, stability assessments, and safety evaluations, ensuring suitability for ocular application. Findings support the potential of herbal kajal as a safe, effective, and stable alternative to conventional eye cosmetic with added medicinal benefits.

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is a teaching approach that helps students learn a subject and a new language at the same time. It allows students to improve their language skills while understanding different academic subjects. This article discusses the definition, purpose, benefits, and important theories that support CLIL.The main purpose of CLIL is to create an environment where students can develop both their language abilities and subject knowledge together. It gives students the opportunity to use the language naturally in real situations, making learning more meaningful and useful.CLIL offers many benefits. It improves students' language skills, helps them develop better thinking and problem-solving abilities, and keeps them motivated. It also prepares them for global opportunities by helping them become multilingual and understand different cultures.The theories behind CLIL include the 4Cs Framework, scaffolding, and multiple intelligences. These theories explain that students can learn better when the teaching focuses on content, communication, thinking skills, and cultural understanding. Scaffolding helps students by giving them support until they can learn independently. Overall, CLIL is an effective and useful teaching approach that helps students grow in both academic and language areas. It makes learning active, meaningful, and connected to real-life situations.

 Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) presents a significant global health challenge, contributing to over five million deaths annually worldwide. This study aimed to evaluate antibiotic prescribing patterns and analyze the antimicrobial sensitivity profiles of isolated organisms. Methods:A Prospective observational study was conducted over a six-month period in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and surgical departments. A total of 102 patients were included in the study, based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Daily clinical evaluations were performed to monitor patient prognosis, and antibiotic-prescribed cases were systematically analyzed during ward rounds to identify trends in prescribing patterns. In addition, microbiological data, such as culture reports and antibiotic sensitivity patterns, were collected and analyzed to determine the effectiveness of various antibiotics against different pathogens. Results:Analysis of antibiotic prescribing patterns revealed that cephalosporins were the most frequently prescribed class (31.6%), followed by carbapenems (18.7%) and penicillins (15.5%). Among the patient samples, 43 cultures exhibited positive microbial growth and were subjected to antibiotic sensitivity testing. Escherichia coli was the predominant isolate, accounting for 48.8% of the total. Sensitivity testing showed that Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibited the highest sensitivity to netilmicin (67%). E. coli isolates were most sensitive to nitrofurantoin (100%), followed by imipenem (95%) and meropenem (95%). Klebsiella pneumoniae showed 100% sensitivity to cefoperazone/sulbactam, cefepime, imipenem, norfloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. Overall, netilmicin (90%) demonstrated the highest sensitivity across all isolates, followed by cefoperazone/sulbactam (87%) and piperacillin/tazobactam (85%). Conclusion:These findings highlight the critical need for ongoing surveillance and the implementation of antimicrobial stewardship programs to promote the rational use of antibiotics and improve clinical outcomes in critical care and surgical settings.

 Abstract

The discussion of astro-ethics is fundamentally a part of applied ethics. Because it involves the philosophical engagement with and normative evaluation of novel & concrete moral challenges arising from humanity's expanding presence beyond Earth, such as those concerning the exploration of outer space, the potential existence of non-terrestrial life, the stewardship of the celestial environment & equitable use of extraterrestrial resources. The discussion of astro-ethics is usually not talked about too much in philosophy. Yet, this discussion is very much beneficial from the philosophical perspective because it enables us to think about right & wrong in new areas, changes how we understand our responsibilities & prepares us to deal with the big ethical or moral questions that come with exploring & living in space. This article explores various key aspects of astro-ethics, such as - its nature, origin, and related ethical guidelines, etc. This article explores certain ethical deficiencies within the domain of astro-ethics and seeks to deepen their philosophical significance by situating them within the framework of some philosophical theories, such as environmental ethics, deep ecology, Rawlsian ethics, Mill's utilitarianism and Kantian ethics, thereby enriching the discourse with broader normative perspectives. Thus, it can be said that this discussion holds philosophical originality while also bearing significant practical relevance, bridging philosophical inquiry with real-world ethical implications.

 Abstract

Embelia tsjeriam-cottam, commonly referred to as Vidanga, is a climbing shrub indigenous to the Western Ghats region of India and belongs to the Myrsinaceae plant family. It is highly regarded in traditional medicine for its wide range of healing benefits, notably its anti-fertility, anti-estrogenic, and anti-parasitic properties. The plant is rich in active compounds, especially embelin, a phenolic substance recognized for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Although its fruit is not commonly consumed, it contains a high concentration of beneficial phytochemicals. Due to its close resemblance in appearance and medicinal uses, Embelia tsjeriam-cottam is often mistaken for Embelia ribes and is sometimes called "False Black Pepper" because of its similarity to Piper nigrum. Modern pharmaceutical studies highlight its potential in managing conditions like inflammation, bacterial infections, diabetes, and liver disorders. However, environmental threats to its native habitat make its conservation an urgent concern
