  • What’s the Difference Between WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business? Here’s What You Should Choose |

    New Delhi: When you search for WhatsApp on the Google Play Store or Apple Story, you’ll notice two options: WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business. Many people get confused about which one to download. While both are messaging apps, they differ slightly in features and usage. Here’s a quick look at the differences between the two apps.

    WhatsApp

    – For Personal Use: WhatsApp is mainly designed for personal use, allowing you to chat, make calls, and share photos and videos with friends and family.

    – Limited Features: It doesn’t include special business features like catalogs or automated messaging.

    – One Account Per Number: You can only use one WhatsApp account per phone number.

    WhatsApp Business

    For Commercial Use: WhatsApp Business is designed especially for small businesses, allowing them to handle customer service, take orders, and promote their business.

    Business Features: It includes various features tailored for business needs, such as:

    Catalog: You can create a catalog of your products or services to easily showcase them to customers.

    Automatic Messages: Set up automated messages, like greetings, to respond to customers quickly.

    Labels: Organize your contacts with labels for easier management.

    Business Profile: Create a business profile that includes your business name, address, website, and more.

    You can use the same number for both WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business. However, they need to be on different devices.

    Which one is better for you?

    When choosing between the two, if you’re using WhatsApp for personal connections, regular WhatsApp should meet your needs. On the other hand, if you manage a small business and want to interact with customers more professionally, WhatsApp Business offers additional tools that could be highly beneficial.

  • Dhanteras 2024: Why Do We Purchase Gold On Dhanteras? , Culture News

    Dhanteras, also known as Dhantrayodashi, marks the beginning of the five-day Diwali festival and is one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar. In 2024, Dhanteras will be celebrated on October 29. The day is dedicated to Lord Dhanvantari, the god of Ayurveda and health, and is also associated with wealth and prosperity. One of the most well-known traditions of Dhanteras is the purchase of gold. But why is this custom so important?

    The Mythological Significance

    The tradition of purchasing gold on Dhanteras has its roots in ancient mythology. According to legend, it was on this day that Lord Dhanvantari emerged from the ocean during the churning of the Milky Sea, known as Samudra Manthan, holding a pot of amrita (elixir) in one hand and the holy text of Ayurveda in the other. This event symbolizes the emergence of health and wealth from the depths of the ocean, making Dhanteras a day to celebrate both.

    Another popular mythological tale is the story of King Hima’s son, who was destined to die from a snake bite on the fourth day of his marriage. To prevent this, his wife kept him awake all night by lighting lamps and placing all her gold and silver ornaments in a heap near the entrance of their bedroom. The bright lights and dazzling gold are said to have blinded Yama, the god of death, when he arrived. Pleased with the devotion and wisdom of the young bride, Yama spared the prince’s life. This legend emphasizes the protective and auspicious qualities of gold, reinforcing the tradition of buying gold to ward off ill fortune.

    Cultural and Economic Significance

    Symbol of Wealth and Prosperity: In Indian culture, gold is considered a symbol of wealth, purity, and prosperity. Purchasing gold on Dhanteras is believed to bring good fortune, financial stability, and prosperity to the household. It is a way of invoking the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi, the deity of wealth. Investment for the Future: Gold has always been a preferred form of investment in India. It serves as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties. The tradition of buying gold on Dhanteras aligns with the practical aspect of securing one’s financial future. Cultural Beliefs and Rituals: Dhanteras is a day dedicated to performing pujas and rituals that invoke the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. Many families believe that bringing home gold on this day pleases the goddess, ensuring her blessings for the year ahead. Family and Community Bonds: The act of purchasing gold and other valuables on Dhanteras often involves the entire family. It is a communal activity that strengthens family bonds and promotes a sense of unity and shared prosperity.

    Modern-Day Celebrations

    In contemporary times, the essence of Dhanteras remains deeply rooted in tradition, but the ways of celebrating have evolved. While gold jewelry and coins continue to be popular purchases, many people also buy silver, new utensils, and electronics. The underlying belief is that new acquisitions on this auspicious day will bring luck and prosperity.

    Markets and shops across India witness a significant surge in sales as people indulge in festive shopping. Jewelers offer attractive discounts and new collections to cater to the increased demand. The festive atmosphere, coupled with the anticipation of Diwali, adds to the excitement of the occasion.

    Dhanteras is a celebration of health, wealth, and prosperity. The tradition of purchasing gold on this day is deeply embedded in Indian culture and mythology, symbolizing the hope for a prosperous future and the blessings of divine deities. As we prepare to celebrate Dhanteras in 2024, let us embrace the traditions with joy and reverence, ensuring that the spirit of prosperity and well-being touches every home.

    Tips for Buying Gold on Dhanteras

    Check Purity: Ensure that the gold you purchase is hallmarked and meets the required purity standards. Compare Prices: Gold prices can vary across different jewellers. It’s wise to compare prices before making a purchase. Understand Making Charges: Different jewelers may have different making charges for gold jewelry. Please clarify these charges beforehand. Buy from Reputed Jewelers: Purchase gold from well-known and trusted jewelers to ensure authenticity and quality. Consider Investment Options: If buying jewelry is not a priority, consider investing in gold coins or bars, which often have lower making charges.

    Wishing you a prosperous and joyful Dhanteras!

  • ‘Shame On You’: Israeli Protesters Disrupt Netanyahu’s October 7 Memorial Speech

    Protestors in Israel interrupted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at a Sunday ceremony held to remember victims of October 7 attack, reported AP. The rebels shouted, ‘shame on you’ causing an uproar that forced Netanyahu to halt his speech shortly after it began.

    The major national commemoration was being broadcast live across the country.

    During a ceremony in Jerusalem, Prime Minister Netanyahu faced interruptions from family members of victims. He remained motionless at the lectern as audience members shouted at him. One protester repeatedly exclaimed, “My father was killed,” reported Al Jazeera.

    A report from the Times of Israel noted that the commemoration was originally not intended to include speeches from bereaved family members, as there were concerns they might criticize the Israeli government. However, due to the protests, family members were eventually permitted to speak at the ceremony.

    Many Israelis hold Netanyahu accountable, criticizing him for the security lapses that allowed Hamas’ October 7, 2023, attack, and for failing to secure the release of hostages still held by the group in Gaza.
