The whole world had come to standstill due to COVID -19 pandemic. TCE, being a philanthropic institution has ever since been in the frontline in the war against corona. Our chairman Shri.Karumuttu T. Kannan donated Rs. 1 crore to the CM’s Public Relief Fund for supporting COVID 19 relief measures on behalf of Thiagarajar Mills and Thiagarajar educational institutions. Also, our college men's hostel was converted to a temporary corona relief facility with the capacity of 550 beds. Many of our alumni have responded aptly at these times of need. Various relief works carried out by our alumni would be covered in our next edition.

ஆரோக்ய வாழ்வு

இன்றைய சூழ்நிலையில் ஆரோக்யம் என்பது உடல் நலம் மற்றும் மருந்துகள் உதவியின்றி வாழ்கிற வாழ்வாகும். மனம், உணர்வு மற்றும் எண்ணங்கள் தான் நமது ஆரோக்யத்தை முடிவு செய்கிறது என்பதை நாம் நினைவில் கொள்ள வேண்டும். மனம் என்பது மூளை சம்பந்தப்பட்டது என தவறாக நினைக்கிறோம். நமது தாயின் கருவறையில் உயிரணுவாக இருந்த Zygote, சிசுவின் வளர்ச்சியின் போது பிரிந்து 120 டிரில்லியன் உயிரணுக்கள் நிறைந்த மனித உடலாக செயல்படுகிறது. இந்த உயிர் அணுக்களின் கூட்டமைப்பே மனம் என்றால் அது மிகை ஆகாது. இந்த உயிர் அணுக்கள் தான் நம் உணர்வின் அடிப்படையில், உடலை ஆரோக்கியமாக பாதுகாக்கிறது.
நல்ல எண்ணங்கள், மகிழ்ச்சியான உணர்வுகளைத் தூண்டி இந்த உயிரணுக்களை பேணி உடல் நலம் காக்கிறது. கோபம், வெறுப்பு போன்ற உணர்வுகள் உயிரணுக்களை சிதைத்து நோய் உருவாக          காரணம் ஆகின்றன.
உலகளாவிய இரக்கம், அன்பு, உற்சாகம் போன்ற எண்ணங்கள் ஆரோக்கியத்திற்கு வித்திடுகின்றன. நல்ல எண்ணங்களை நமது மனதில் விதைத்து நல்ல உணர்வுகளோடு வாழும்போது, ஆரோக்கியம் வாழும் வரை சாத்தியமாகிறது.
நீங்கள் எதை உண்கிறீர்கள் என்பது அல்ல, எது உங்களை உண்ணுகிறதோ(எண்ணங்கள்) அதுவே உங்களை வாழவும் வைக்கிறது, சாகவும் வைக்கிறது. (Courtesy - Padma Bhushan Prof. Dr. Hegde)
