Gurupurnima celebration

Guru Purnima is a day when we pay obeisance to the lifeline of this great, unbroken civilization of India - the Guru-Shisya Parampara. The celebration named as “Guru Sharan”, commenced with the classical dance ‘Athah-shree’ followed by Shloka - Mantra-Pushpanjali and Poojan of Shree Thakorji as well as P. Swamiji. Students expressed their gratitude and respect for their teachers and mentor didis by performing Guru Poojan. A classical bhajan and recitations of shlokas dedicating to the religious guru resounded with a union of devotional chants. The skit on ‘The Importance of Guru’ was performed extensively. The dance act depicting Guru Bhakti was the notable piece at closing stage of the event. Students took hold of a very vital significance of being extremely faithful towards Guru’s commands and directions after being blessed and inspired by the Guruhari P.P. Hariprasad Swamiji’s Amrutvaani.

International Yoga Day and Inter House Stretch and Tone Competition

Yoga is aimed to unite the mind, the body and the spirit. To practice and perform the same, an Inter-house Stretch and Tone competition was organized for the grades I to XI in the assembly hall. The performing Yogis were more aware of their body's posture, alignment and patterns of movement. All the houses put their best foot forward to display the potential for Yoga. The judges observed each and every round keeping the parameters like timing, stability and clarity. Some very unusual and special rounds of hard-hitting postures and challenging Asanas made the contest enormously exclusive.
