News Round-up January and February 2015

News Round-up January and February 2015

Dear sisters and brothers,
I was told by my coworkers about the visit of Film Crew of Man. Eknathji to VKVAPT office. The main actor and camera man were silver-tongued when they shared their experience to all the workers who assembled to hear them. The cameraman said “It is a great chance for me to shoot the scenes to portray the great personality of our country. I have tried to internalize his ideas & works and accordingly I have paid a great attention to make each and every scene free from any factual errors. For Example whenever Eknathji in the film addressed the Karyakartas, I have paid special attention to see that all other actor Karyakartas are sitting in rows and columns”.
I am convinced the fact that everyone will be inspired if they open their mind to receive Swami Vivekananda and Mananeeya Eknathji. Both of them live beyond death by inspiring millions showing the path of selfless service to the humanity.
Let us all imbibe those great ideals in our life to enable us to undertake noble tasks in our life.
There are many things to share with you all. Let me give brief highlights of all the important activities of January and February for the information of all:-

Swami Mitrananda, Director, All India Chinmaya Yuva Kendra and an eminent speaker of international repute was the main Resource person for the Utsarg at VKV Itanagar and Nirjuli. In his deliberation on the topic “Key to Success”, he encompassed all the key factors for success. He stressed that Sauraj and Dhiraj (fearless & fortitude) are the most essential qualities to be acquired. Fear is the main obstacle in the path of Success and Strength never comes automatically, it is to be accumulated.Referring to Vibheeshan Geeta, a part of the Ramayana in which Lord Sri Rama gave an enlightening sermon to Vibheeshan, regarding the chariot of successhe prescribed all the qualities required to be a successful human being.

Dr T.P.Sasikumar, who held top notch, positions in many Departments like Deputy Director, Directorate General of Security, Cabinet Secretariat, New Delhi; Director, UGC Staff College, Calicut, was the main Resource person of the Utsarg at VKV Kharsang, Roing and Tafrogam. He urged the students to imbibe the qualities of Swami Vivekananda like ‘Fearlessness’. Students liked the classes which were conducted in interactive mode. He integrated many topics in his classes.
