Posted in CCA Acitivities, School Program

Happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. Keeping this thought in mind, B.L.V.N. organized CBSE Adolescent Summit on 19th July, 2023 with the intention of facilitating holistic wellness, mental health and life skill as it is an integral part of our day to day education.
The speaker for the occasion was Shri. Yugadharma Harinama Dasa from ISKCON Kaundanyapur. It was an interactive session with the students of Class IX and X. The entire ambience was enlivened with a spiritual tune. He focused on the aspect of time management and asked the students to maintain a distance from the electronic gadgets which act as an obstacle and a distraction for education.

He articulated 5 Do’s of every student through Sanskrit shloka by Chanakya.
काक चेष्टा, बको ध्यानं,
स्वान निद्रा तथैव च ।
अल्पहारी, गृहत्यागी,
विद्यार्थी पंच लक्षणं ।

That explains that every student has to have perseverance like crow, focus like crane, alertness like dog, proper eating habits and away from comfort.

Lastly devotional tune of Hare Rama Hare Krishna was played in the form of kirtana with Mridangam that made ambience spiritual as students too recited and followed the same.

The session indeed proved to be a benefactor in igniting and educating young minds with spirituality.
