Divinity of Sanatan Dharma spreds in villages of Tamilnadu, A report by HJS

Report of HJS lecture for Ekal Vidyalaya teachers

From our correspondent

Highlights :

• The participants noted down all the points sincerely and also asked questions to clarify their doubts.

• The Organisers told that although all these points were covered over a period of time by them, the essence was given in just 2 hours,  along with scientific explanation so that it gets reinforced in their minds.

• On the way back to Chennai, we visited 2 centres in 2 different villages where ekal vidyalaya was going on to have a practical experience of how these messages reach the children. These single teacher schools are run daily from 5-8 pm. The children were very enthusiastic and they boldly narrated Thirukkural, slokas, poems, stories etc.  A drawing of Shri Shiva in Dhyanavastha was kept in one class which was drawn by a student of sixth std.

• The organisers told that such classes do the monumental job of weaning away the village people from Christian missionaries who otherwise keep them engaged through out the weekends.

• They insisted that with our participation regularly for the teachers, the message will reach so many villages.

• In one village, the ekal vidyalaya teachers was busy preparing tea for us. The children took initiative on their own and spontaneously told  whatever was learnt in the classes without waiting for their teacher. The teacher gave a hand made bunch of plastic flowers which she made on her own to HJS members . Genuine warmth and affection could be experienced in the midst of those village people.

• The organisers invited us for the next week session to be conducted in two different villages for the teachers.
