Summer Camp 2019 - Day 4 - Summary


I woke up at 6:00am that day and I went to bathe. After finishing bathing and daily chores, I directly went to the Ashram to unfold the mats. Now it was time for Swamiji's vedic chanting.

Next came Shruthi Aunty's Yoga session. We then went for breakfast. They served breakfast which was not my favourite. We had an hour time left till the chanting session. I played cricket to pass time.
During chanting session, we chanted the Nama Ramayanam. Next came the talks about Goswamy Tulasidas, the one who wrote Ramayanam.

During the workshop, we discussed about communication. After workshop, we went for lunch where rice, lentin soup, rasam and curd were served. We then took rest for a span of two hours and went for Swamiji's talks on Sundarakandam.

Then we satisfied ourselves with some snacks and then played some out-door games. I played cricket. We had to go for the Aarti session where we chanted many Bhajans. Now it was time for indoor games. We played Dumchareds and our group came 3rd. Later we sang camp song and then we went for dinner. We, then trudged along the grass and played for sometime, then went to sleep.

Our fifth day here also started peacefully, with the holy chanting of the “Medha Sooktam” by the children, under the guidance of Swamiji, after the morning milk. The yoga session led by Shruti didi followed the chanting and children performed their asanas, with an improved flexibility. The delicious breakfast was followed by the chanting of the “NamaRamayana” and “Sankatmochan Hanumanashtak”, led by Srijit bhaiya, Priya didi, Rajeev bhaiya and Monisha didi. The children are chanting with an increased fervour, as they have learnt the stotras, almost perfectly. Gopalji took up the next session, with a talk, enlightening the children about the symbolism in the temples. He talked to the children, about how scientifically the temples, especially the ancient ones, were planned.

 On March 21, I returned home after finishing my 10th class board exams. I was ecstatic and anticipated having a wonderful holiday season. My mom had taken me to visit KSR College of Technology along with my brother, Yoogesh. I was excited about it and felt extremely delighted about it. I was taken to the Idea Lab and given a tour by the principal, Gopalakrishnan Sir, and Bharani Mam. It offered excellent amenities, such as a computer lab, a laser printing lab, a UV resin printing lab, a metal cutting lab, a wood printer, and a 3D printing facility.
