Educational tour and trekking

by

We arranged a rendezvous of the village students with nature by taking them on a nature trail. First – hand experience of consciously being in nature and along with it helped develop empathy and oneness. Children were filled with gratitude for the generosity of nature and its bounties in the form of mighty mountains, babbling rivers, fluffy clouds, chirpy birds, lush greenery and the heaven of the open blue sky. Spending time in the lap of nature and having food under the canopy of their new friends, the trees, was one of the rare pleasures the children will cherish for a lifetime.

Exposing village students to such fun- filled group activities is a unique experience. Students of Katarkhadak village were taken on a trek to Katarkhadak hills along with Rajesh sir, Amol, Rafik and Alok.

Manojji’s visit

by

One question that is worth asking oneself is that how can I serve others more? An extension of this query was Manoj ji’s visit to the villages from Jawalgaon to Katarkhadak village school.  The tour was totally focused on the ongoing projects of RSVK and what more can be done to make life more comfortable for the rural folk. The ways to inspire and include more and more people was also reflected upon.

The visit was a learning experience for us as well. The villagers who were in deep gratitude for the projects and resources offered taught us the value of gratitude.

When beautiful people meet beautiful things happen. A discussion of Manojji with the school authorities and important people of the villages, interested in village growth, turned out to be extremely fruitful. Magic of Gratitude workshop is already being offered to them. Some tips for enhancing playful learning were also shared.

Students had a great time being with Manojji and they got easily connected to him owing to his childlike playful nature.  Singing prayers, rhymes with drama and action and a Marathi prayer helped build an amazing rapport with the children.

Retreat

by

The Retreat, after SSY is a treat for the mind, body and soul. The villagers experienced the highest form of bliss through meticulously designed processes. A paradoxical experience that brings freedom through bonding, bestows a sense of moodiness in everybodiess and gives a reason to be happy without a reason. The participants returned after unwrapping the gift of life, taking it on with a cheerful grin.
