Clean India Programme

Gearing up for the inauguration of Anand Kendra, on the eve of Guruji’s Aradhana Day, our Gurukulam students and residents decided to clean the Katarkhadak village. The activity brought the students closer to nature and they basked in the  satisfaction of making a positive difference in their immediate environs. Feeling for nature in general and trees in particular is an opportunity our Gurukulam kids rarely miss.

We provided attractive, sturdy tiffin boxes to make things easier and eating a joyful experience for these children.  It’s a great experience to have meditators support these activities!

Costume distribution

Costumes lend colour and a special charm to the dance performance. We distributed 58 costumes comprising of white and grey tops to school students of Andhale, Khamboli, Katakhadak and Jawal villages.

The gesture aimed at boosting their creative expression through dance and giving a sense of uniformity to the performance. The smiles on the  children’s faces on receiving it was a gift we gave ourselves.

Our teachers taught the rural students dance and got them ready for the performance besides distributing the costumes. Spending time with kids training them and getting them ready for the performance was equally joyful for us.

Health Awarenness for women

Health has always been at the centre of all our awareness programmers. This time we decided to do it for rural women. Our in-house gynecologist, Dr. Varsha along with Renuka conducted health check up camp for Rural women .They were guided about health risks faced by women, diet, health challenges, prevention and solutions. Village women opened up freely and willingly to the lady doctor who answered their queries and explained them various concepts. 

We provided a gynecologist, consultation room at the kendra, resources and medicines. We invited village women to the kendra for a health check up and addressed challenges faced by them in the area of health.

Blanket distribution

Love is a warm blanket and we grabbed the opportunity to wrap the underprivileged in the warmth of our love by distributing blankets. The joy of bringing warm sunshine in their lives brought immense satisfaction to our meditator who initiated this kind gesture. Deprived of proper homes, these villagers are now willing to undergo various programs we wish to offer. Specially skills in making them self-reliant and creating their own ideal world.

The help was extended to adivasis of Jawal and Dhangarwadi villages. We are now ready to impart necessary skills to help them earn their living.

Greener India

The joy of parenting a sapling is indescribable. Planting trees brings happiness as we all like to nurture nature. Every monsoon, we plant indigenous trees to restore greenery and make a contribution towards sustainable development. We planted thousands of plants in the Mulshi taluka promoting our project of making India cleaner and greener.

Offering of RSVK

Rishi Samskruthi Vidya Kendra has been conducting awareness among the villagers to refrain from cutting down trees and encourage planting and nurturing of trees.

Daily Energy session

Food for the soul is as vital as food for the body. Our invaluable supporters and helpers of the village team, right from housekeeping staff to cooks, drivers, admin staff, in-house carpenters, plumbers, Nursery , etc. take a daily bite into these Recharger sessions. These rejuvenating sessions include prayers, inspirational talks and videos. Small portions of values on a daily basis help the villagers experience inner growth, peace and happiness. This gradually transforms into their lives and manifests in their dealings with their loved ones , bringing more harmony in their outer world.

Offering of RSVK

A group of teachers, trainers takes daily sessions for this group.  Various trainers, speakers and teachers contribute on a variety of topics. This keeps them stress free, energizes them and makes them happy for no reason. They grow in self-love and their self-esteem rises.

Army

The Army of the first village of India, Kupwara, invited Rishi Gurukulam students to visit Kupwara and stay with the Army – the Army way! The students interacted with each other. Interpersonal skills got a boost and students could exchange ideas leading to a better understanding of differences in the socio- cultural background. The teachers of civil schools were trained in handling children playfully enhancing leadership skills and personal growth.

Programs such as Magic of Gratitude, Science of Silence Yoga, and Magic of Marriage were conducted for the Army personnel. These were to resolve issues related to the challenges faced by the fauji’s on their personal front. We could successfully leave heart prints in the lives of our brave faujis , a way of giving back to them with gratitude for all that they do so unconditionally for us.
