ध्यान से पूर्व प्राणायाम जरूरी : डा. अर्चिका दीदी
विश्व जागृति मिशन सत्संग समिति की ओर से विश्व योग दिवस के उपलक्ष्य में आयोजित योग-ध्यान शिविर में योगविद् डा. अर्चिका दीदी ने श्वास लेने और श्वास छोड़ने की क्रिया से प्राण हमारे शरीर में प्रवाहित होता है। उन्होंने कहा कि पतंजलि संविता शास्त्र में श्वसन को शारीरिक स्वास्थ्य का वर्धक दर्शाया है। ध्यान के साधक बैठने की मुद्रा पर अधिकार प्राप्त करने के अगले चरण में श्वसन पर ही अधिकार का अभ्यास करते हैं ।

Devotees of all age groups came together to sing praises to The Lord and to their Divine Masters, HH Sudhanshu JI Maharaj and adorable Dr. Archika Didi. The evening was even more blessed with special blessings from Maharajshri and Didi. Their key message for the devotees was to celebrate ‘Shakti’ and to realize that each one has this shakti or prakriti within. There is a constant need to realize it and awaken it so that one can achieve the true purpose of this human life.
Didi encouraged every person of Indian origin living abroad, to send positive vibrations for their Mother Land and see it prosper even further. She said, ‘if negative words and thoughts can make you feel bad then why can positive words and thoughts not leave a positive impact? So be positive’. Maharajshri reminded the devotees of the rich spiritual heritage and traditions of India. He said that Raksha bandhan should not be limited to tying a thread on the brother’s wrist but instead it should be about protecting and nurturing all the relationships that are important in your life including your relationship with your Guru.

Since it was Didi’s birthday, the children could not go by without cake cutting and balloons. The WAM members are grateful for the Divine connection with their homeland that keeps them rooted with their values and the sprit of desh bhakti.
The organization is a very tiny branch of the gigantic tree that was planted by Maharajshri over three decades ago. The branch strives to grow and spread His messages far and wide. There are monthly satsangs, food drives and other social initiatives organized from time to time.

The ‘Gurukul’ system of education is the essence of Indian way of imparting education. Basically, a Gurukul is a school where students learn and live along with their Gurus and receive formal education, ethical values and life skills. Gurukul has significant mythological connotations as well. Lord Ram, the Pandavas, Luv-Kush, and Lord Krishna received their formal education in a Gurukul under the guidance of a Guru and even today, the Gurukul system holds a great significance.

Vedic Age & Gurukul System
The Gurukul System was more widespread during the Vedic age where students were taught diverse subjects. The education was largely based on Vedas, grammar, the study of nature, logic, reasoning, science and other skills that are necessary for an occupation. Gurukul was the home of the Guru and the centre of learning where disciples stayed till the end of their schooling. All pupils were considered equal at the Gurukul. Adopt a caring of a senior Citizen
Gurus as well as Shishyas resided in the same dwelling. The relationship between Guru and Shishya was considered sacred. No fee was taken from the students. Though, the disciples had to offer a Gurudakshina. It was a symbol of deep respect paid to the Guru.Adopt a caring of a senior Citizen
The Key Objectives of the Gurukul System
The key objectives of the Gurukul system of education are-
Gurukuls in the Present Time
The Gurukul system of education is still prevalent in India. They focus on imparting education to the needy students in a natural surroundings where they can live with other students while inculcating the values of humanity, discipline and brotherhood. They study language, Science, Mathematics through Swadhyay and group discussions. They also acquire knowledge in fields like sports, arts, crafts, dancing and singing.
At the Gurukul, the focus is on developing intelligence and ability of critical thinking in the learners. They take part in activities such as meditation, Pranayam and Mantra chanting. One such Gurukul is, Maharishi Vedvyas Gurukul Vidyapeeth which is a unique centre of teaching located at Anand Dham Ashram, Delhi. HH Sudhanshuji Maharaj laid the foundation of this Gurukul on 2nd October, 1999. Adopt a caring of a senior Citizen
Here, students pursue their studies as per the curriculum of the Sanskrit university of Varanasi. They study all formal subjects along with the Vedas, Purans, Ramayana, Gita, Meditation, Music, Computer, and also get involved in co-curricular activities. The beautiful centre of learning is situated in a pollution-free, clean and natural environment. All necessary educational facilities are available here where students from the underprivileged and poor sections of Indian society are given free education.

The Way Forward
Modern Gurukuls should be based on applied knowledge to prepare the students in all areas of education. It could be done by creating a perfect environment of academics and extracurricular activities for students. The application of the Gurukul system works on a value-based system and so the focus should be on the individuality of the student. They must excel in their area of interest. It will build a good character in them so that they can become what they want by understanding the whole concept of a balanced life. Such an education system will cultivate well-adapted and resourceful human beings who can face any challenge in life with bravery. Adopt a caring of a senior Citizen
‘ When you learn, teach. When you get, give.’
Maya Angelou
For the majority of mankind, winters mean putting on beautiful woolen clothes, lying in warm rooms, and having hot beverages. But for people on the streets, it’s a constant fight with the ruthless weather and a brutal question of survival.
Unsurprisingly, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD)’s recent data reflects a nerve-wracking trend. It shows that cold waves killed more Indians than heatwaves since 1980. Moreover, according to IMD, many North Indian cities, including Delhi, are continually witnessing ‘severe cold’ days as the minimum temperature sometimes drops to 4 degrees Celsius. Certainly, the coming few days (Dec-Jan) would be really struggling for a large number of street dwellers.
We usually say that hundreds and thousands of people die of cold every year, but we don’t understand that they die because they don’t have blankets and woolen clothes.
We can offer blankets directly to the needy by visiting their area or shelter homes (night shelters) or we can consult the organizations that are involved in social work. Giving in itself is a divine virtue and it ultimately leads to many nice outcomes.
While discussing the sufferings of the underprivileged, many people feel profound sorrow and think that there is nothing we can do about the situation as we are not rich.
But here, you don’t need to be a millionaire to make a significant difference in someone’s life.
Search and you will find many opportunities wherein you can offer a meager amount and offer help to someone who is struggling to survive during the winter season.
Winter mortality is a problem that can be easily solved through warm blankets. Timely interventions can break the cycle of winter deaths.
You can buy blankets yourself and distribute them among the needy or you may share your warmth through the organizations that run drives to help the people on the streets.
Your small offering can really save someone’s life.
Giving to others is directly linked with an increased sense of contentment and happiness. Many kinds of research have proved that.
Experience the pleasure of giving by seeing your money being utilized for a noble cause.
There is no better gift than offering blankets to the needy during the harsh winter season. Millions of street dwellers experience the bitterness of winter and fall sick. This year, a pandemic has made their situation even more challenging.
A simple blanket can keep them healthy all through the season and this is the right time to serve humanity by donating blankets.
There cannot be a bigger satisfaction than ensuring good health for those who really need care.
Life can get really busy sometimes and we forget to show our gratitude for everything given to us by the Almighty.
Moreover, due to various indulgences, we hardly get a chance to experience our own caring spirit.
So, whenever you get a chance, just give and see how rewarding it is for you.
Every winter, Vishwa Jagriti Mission (VJM), under the guidance of HH Sudhanshuji Maharaj and Dr. Archika Didi organizes blanket donation drives across India.
The idea is to provide good quality blankets to underprivileged people living on the streets.
Anyone who wants to be a part of the noble drive can get in touch with VJM and experience the pleasure of giving.
Come, be a part of the drive!
