A tribute to the Guru-Shishya Parampara

/0 Comments/in , /by
Today, the flowers bloomed more than usual, gave more fragrance than usual because it was the day when Guru blessed them and their Shishyas. The prayer hall of the school had a spiritual touch and ambience of prayer that the shishyas offered.

On this pious occasion we were blessed by the presence of P. Kothari Swamiji, P. Yogi Swamiji, P. Gyanswaroop Swamiji, P. Suhrad Swamiji and P. Mahatmya Swamiji. Through their vaani, these saints gave us an insight of what and who a Guru is, why is He important in our lives. The school’s youngest musicians with the company of our music teachers Somnath Sir and Jaimin Sir offered a prayer in form of the bhajan “Guru maat pita, guru bandhu sakha” to God and to the saints present there.

Moving ahead, the flowers that bloomed more than usual today, were gathered and offered to each of the saints, principal, administrator and other guests. It was the time now to seek blessings from the saints. P. Suhrad Swamiji blessed us by sharing with us that actually following His aagnas was the true sense of guru poojan. Next he explained that the role of a guru in one’s life was to take us on the path of positivity from negativity. Then, Somnath Sir amazingly sung the bhajan “Guru charanan ni hu rajkan chhu” (meaning “O Lord, let us be in your feet and serve you”) brilliantly accompanied on the tabla by Jaimin Sir. The bhajan echoed the words spoken by P. Suhrad Swamiji and left the audience even more inspired.

Finally, P. Kothari Swamiji blessed us through His speech explaining the true significance of the day i.e. remembering guru in each and every deed we do and offering our bad habits to God and Guru and asking for strength to follow the good ones.

The function ended by all the students and staff getting an opportunity of rare fortune of offering poojan to P. Kothari Swamiji and praying personally of what good we wanted to follow. After the poojan we received Prasad from P. Gyanswaroop Swamiji and dispersed, enlightened, to our respective hostels.

“With great power, comes great responsibilities.” – (Uncle Ben to Peter Parker)

30th June 2012 was a very auspicious day for the students as well as the staff members of Atmiya Vidya Mandir as it was the day of honouring the newly elected members of the student council. The ceremony started at 11:30 AM after the usual Saturday school hours.

The hosts of the ceremony Pranshu Savani and Abhishek Panchal first invited our Principal Dr Vijay Patel and Administrator Mr Harish Patel to perform poojan of Thakorji. Next came a mesmerising performance by the school’s choir of the song “I believe I can fly” with an able guidance from Somnath Sir. The group led by Raj Panpaliya, Siddharth Jain and Nirmal Patel left one and all present there with high spirits and hope and set a perfect stage for the oath taking ceremony of the new student council members.

The newly elected Head Boy: Vikas Patel, Vice Head Boy: Rohan Shingala, Sports Captain: Harshill Soni and the captains and vice captains of various houses marched towards the stage for the oath taking ceremony. They were followed by a highly enthusiastic team of house prefects. All the council members were then conferred their titles and responsibilities by the respective house teachers through pinning up the badges. These stars, shining due to their achievements, badges and most importantly their determination and humility, then took their oaths administered by the school principal.

The school then received an inspirational treat in the form of a group dance on the song “Lakshya” choreographed by Suhradam Sir. The new Head Boy Vikas Patel then conveyed his feelings to the school and appealed to all the students to excel in whatever they were involved in. Further, our principal Vijay Sir enlightened the newly elected student council members and all the students by his experience-filled-wisdom and urged everyone to ponder over the benefits of practicing “atmiyata” on a daily basis.
The head boy, vice head boy and the house captains then lit the sacred lamp marking the beginning of the new year full of challenges and achievements with sincere prayers to remain committed to atmiyata in whatever they would do. The ceremony ended with the school song and the lively hearts then marched to the school dining hall for a sumptuous lunch.

Showers of His Divine Blessings

/0 Comments/in /by
Humdrum of daily routine come to a halt
 
The devotion buzzed and adoration attuned
 
hearts overjoyed with a sense of belongingness
 
and every corner of AVM enthralled
 
His arrival, like showers on a scorching soil
 
so rejuvenating and so sanctifying.

Our joy knew no bounds when we had the divine presence of H.D.H Hariprasad Swamiji here at AVM campus on 12th June 2012. It is an incredibly amazing feeling to know that Swamiji remembers us and knows about us from wherever He is and His care and concern for us are irrespective of time and distance. He spares time and visits us so that we are able to be more focused and concentrated in our studies so that we flourish with the talent we are gifted with.

In His meeting with students, this time, before going for videsh vicharan, Swamiji gave certain guidelines to students such as “parents ne raji karva, na awade to teacher nu mathu khavu, Sara mitro no sang rakhvo ane 70% minimum marks and to avoid movies in order to develop an unwavering focus…” so that we try our best to live up to these approaches (maxims) and results will be rewarding. Still our fickle mind wanders and sometimes our eyes are off from our goals but for Swamiji’s deep concern and love as He personally comes here to bless us, to restore our clarity of mind and determination towards our goal.

We are sure that we will remain ever happy with His constantly flowing grace upon us; Swamiji’s plans for our life are better, bigger and higher than our dreams.

We are very fortunate that our future is being shaped under His kind guidance (with His divine touch) so that we can be instrumental (nimit bhoolku) to convey the message of Atmiyata to the world tomorrow.
