Bharateeyans could take a moment to refect on these,
it would certainly make the difference we have been
striving for.
Our goal should be to ensure that our nation reclaims
its status as the Guru of the whole civilization and leading
the world as a true leader. Today, we have forgotten
our Truth, Dharma and Duty to Society. And because
of this we are unable to solve our National problems.
We forget that we are nation with a soul that holds the
key to the worlds prosperity and spiritual progress.
Bharat is the source of all morality, spirituality and
world wisdom. We should not feel disheartened when
we hear of incidents in our country that contradict this.
It is the test of time and we will withstand it to come
out victorious.
But for this to happen, all bharateeyans must come
together in an act of unity and must strive to together
to regain our glory. We have won freedom but we have
not achieved unity. And by unity we do not simply
reduce the concept to the level of law abiding citizens
who respect the constitution of the country. By unity
we mean a nation that stands together irrespective of
caste, creed, language or colour. The duty of every
bharateeyan must be frst to the nation. Because only
by ensuring the victory of the nation can he ensure the
security and well being of his family and the society
that he lives in?
On August 13th our nation also celebrated Raksha
Bandhan symbolizing the importance we give for our
relationships and values in our nation. This month, lets
tie our rakhi to the nation and take our solemn oath to
protect our nation and strive for its glory.
As you read the magazine today, a group of citizens
are today leading a campaign against corruption and the
degraded political and bureaucratic system our country
is having today. We should feel proud of their efforts. On
the occasion Sri Krishna Jayanthi and Ganesh Chathurti
we hope these crusaders will follow the words of the
great leaders of our civilization in leading from the
front and doing their karma without expecting nothing
in return but the well being of the nation and citizens
living in it.
Life in this world is impermanent;
Youth and wealth are transient;
wife and children are not lasting;
righteousness and renown alone are lasting

The pious month of Ramayana Parayanam is
coming to an end. It has been truly a blessing for all
of us who have been able to take the penance and gone
through the 31 days of daily chanting and rituals. It has
been an enlightening journey for us who have listened
to the various discourses during these days.
Today we have a special occasion for all of us
to cheer. It is our Independence Day and we have
celebrated it across the country and in many part of the
world by hoisting our national fags and signing our
national anthem. India is today an emerging giant in
the developed world. We have made vast advances in
the world of exports, technology, communication and
warfare. Like most nations, we have also have share of
downsides. We have lost many souls to frequent attacks
on our soil and many people have lost their fnancial and
social security due to fraud and opportunistic politics of
a few.
Very often we fail to take a moment to look back
as to how we attained our hard fought freedom and
Independence. Many people have died for this cause.
Our contributions in this issue will showcase a few
of these great fghters and intellectuals who built
our nation from the ruins the invaders left us. If all
A Model Village
Chitrakoot
Project
As Indians we are proud to be celebrating 65 years of
Indian Independence this year. In the past 65 years we have
progressed a lot and are among fast developing nations.
Gandhiji had envisioned a wide spectrum development
for India. He had dreamt of poverty free, self-suffcient
India. Though we have advanced a lot, Gandhijis
dreams still remain unaccomplished. There are many
people who are below the poverty line and are suffering.
They are struggling for survival. Nanaji Deshmukh had
dedicated his life to make Gandhijis dream come true.
He had helped many villagers and adivasis to be self-
reliant through his Chitrakoot Project.
Chitrakoot Project or the Campaign for Self-
Reliance was launched on 26th Jan, 2005. This was a
dream project of the great veteran Nanaji Deshmukh.
Nanajis life was a mission and his mission is his life.
The basis of Chitrakoot project is 'Total transformation
through total development with people's initiative and
participation'. He was inspired by Lokmanya Tilak and
had a burning zeal for social service. Nanaji devoted
his entire time to Deendayal Research Institute that he
himself established way back in 1969. He established
Chitarkoot Gramodya Vishwavidyalaya in Chitrakoot,
India's frst rural university and was its frst Chancellor.
This is a unique project of overall upliftment of
adivasis in Chitrakoot area of MP and UP. During the
last ten years emphasis was on fulflling the basic needs
like water, food and education. This project has become
a role model for all those who are keen on social service.
Nanaji fnally fne-tuned an integrated program for the
development of rural areas that covers health, hygiene,
education, agriculture, income generation, conservation
of resources, and social conscience, that is both
sustainable and replicable.
It would be interesting to note that the whole district
uses the local panchayats to settle disputes. The law and
order of district is maintained in coalition with the local
government. But almost all disputes are settled before it
even reaches the courts. All 80 villages are almost free of
any kind of litigations.
Nanaji had devoted his last few years for Adivasis of
Chitrakoot area to make them self reliant and confdent.
They have progressed a lot without any government aid.
He has set up small training units in various small scale
industries. The adivasis are trained for bamboo work,
food processing, bee keeping, bakery, tailoring, electrical
repairs etc. With his wide visionary thoughts he aims at
making 500 villages self suffcient in all aspects of life.
By now around 80 villages are self reliant. The great
effort put in by Nanaji and a few likeminded people has
fruitful results.
The greatness of his thoughts is that of understanding
the basic needs of society and fulflling them. Barren
lands have been turned into lush green felds. He has
started residential school for Adivasi girls in the remote
area. This has created awareness and confdence among
the adivasi girls. The graduate couples Gramseva
shilpis intermix and interact with the villagers and help
in various felds like agriculture, health, education, child
upbringing etc. He has also set up a modern and highly
sophisticated hospital with all modern facilities to provide
complete health care to the needy.A major development
has been the setting up of a mobile three chair unit to
bring treatment to most of two hundred villages within a
forty mile radius, which are remote and only accessible
by off-road vehicle.
Nanajis life and mission is an inspiration to all the
youngsters. He has dedicated his life for the upbringing
of the villagers and adivasis. Each of us must take a
lesson from this and try to devote ourselves for the
development of our motherland. Nanaji brought to life
the ambition of Gandhiji. He showed the nation that the
concept of Gram Swaraj is the way forward for our
sustained economic development as more than half the
nation resides in the villages and survive on agriculture.
In a time when we are taking over agriculture land for
urban development, the Chitrakoot project is an eye
opener. Nanajis philosophy of Integral Humanism is the
sum total of various features of our Bharatiya Sanskriti.
This is the ideal that determines our direction; these
ideas need to be translated into practice. It needs to be
grounded in realism keeping in mind the revolutionary
changes happening around us.

I bow to thee, Mother,
richly-watered, richly-fruited, cool with the winds
of the south, dark with the crops of the harvests,
the Mother !
Her nights rejoicing in the glory of the moonlight,
Her lands clothed beautifully with her trees in
fowering bloom,
Sweet of laughter, sweet of speech,
The Mother, giver of boons, giver of bliss!
Terrible with the clamorous shout of seventy
million throats,
And the sharpness of swords raised in twice
seventy million hands,
Who sayeth to thee, Mother, that thou art weak?
Holder of multitudinous strength, I bow to her who saves,
To her who drives from her the armies of her foemen,
the Mother!
Thou art knowledge, thou art conduct,
thou art heart, thou art soul,
for thou art the life in our body.
In the arm thou art might, O Mother,
In the heart, O Mother, thou art love and faith,
It is thy image we raise in every temple.
For thou art Durga holding her ten weapons of war,
Kamala at play in the lotuses
And speech, the goddess, giver of all lore, to thee I bow!
I bow to thee, goddess of wealth, pure and peerless,
Richly-watered, richly-fruited, the Mother!
I bow to thee, other, dark-hued, candid,
Sweetly smiling, jeweled and adorned,
The holder of wealth, the lady of plenty, the Mother!

Management
Lessons of
Bhagvad Gita
One of the greatest contributions of India to the
world is Bhagvad Gita which is considered to be one of
the ancient scriptures of the world. Gita is not meant for
any person, creed, nationality or a religion, but meant
for the humanity. Gita is not a religious book which
talks about a god and how to attain heaven by following
his dictates. Gita is a book of self discovery and inward
journey into once consciousness.
To motivate Arjuna, who got mentally disturbed
upon seeing those near and dear ones whom he had to
kill in the war of Kurukshetra, Lord Krishna told him to
perform his duty. In the eighteen chapters of Bhagwad
Gita, one discovers wonderful management guidelines
which are applicable even today.
Management has become a part and parcel of everyday
life, be it at home, in the offce or in Government.
Most of the management concepts like attitude, vision,
leadership, motivation, excellence, goal seeking, work
ethics, nature of individual, decision making, planning
etc., are discussed in the Bhagavad Gita.
One of the key characteristics that we learn in
management is Mindset or Attitude. Mindset is actually
how we respond to situations or the outlook we should
have to respond to events. Everyday life throws up lot
of situation which gives us pleasure, grief, pain, anger,
success and failures. It is our mindset or attitude that
helps us in responding to these events. Here in Gita, the
target of Krishnas teachings to Arjuna is on setting up
the right mindset. Let me tell you why mindset matters
in life? Most of the people think that its the numbers,
strength or the wealth that matters. But if you really look
at it, each of them by themselves does not constitute
power. To illustrate, there may be thousand goats at one
place, but a mere sight of a tiger is what is required
for mayhem. Here the majority or the numbers didnt
constitute the power or the success. If you watch huge
lions in a circus cage who obey to a thin ring master,
who could be easily overpowered by just a smash of a
paw, we understand strength is not that matters.
The critical question in everyones mind is how to be
effective in his job or life. Bhagavad Gita suggests 'one
should always try to manage oneself'. The individual
must reach a level of excellence and effectiveness
which sets him apart from those whom he is managing,
he must be an achiever.
Now let us re-examine some of the modern
redhish Chandran
Cultural
kmwkvImcnIw
management concepts in the light of the Bhagavad Gita
which is a primer of management by values.
Utilization of Available Resources
The frst lesson in the management science is to
choose wisely and utilize optimally the scarce resources
if one has to succeed in his venture. During the curtain
raiser before the Mahabharata War Duryodhana chose Sri
Krishna's large army for his help while Arjuna selected
Sri Krishna's wisdom for his support. This episode gives
us a clue as to who is an Effective Manager.
Attitude towards Work
Three stone-cutters were engaged in erecting a
temple. As usual a H.R.D. Consultant asked them what
they were doing. The frst one said, he is poor and need
to raise some money for the family with a dejected face.
The second one said, well I want to show that I am the
best stone cutter with a sense of pride and the third one
said, I want to build the most beautiful temple in the
world with a visionary gleam.
Their jobs were identical but their perspectives were
different. What Gita tells us is to develop the visionary
perspective in the work we do. It tells us to develop a
sense of larger vision in one's work for the common
good.
Work Commitment
The popular verse of Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 2
verse 47) of the Gita advises detachment from the
fruits or results of actions performed in the course of
one's duty. Being dedicated work has to mean working
for the sake of work, generating excellence for its own
sake.
The work must be done with detachment. This is
because it is the Ego which spoils the work. If this is
not the backbone of the Theory of Motivation which the
modern scholars talk about what else is it?
Management needs those who practice what they
Preach
Whatever the excellent and best ones do, the
commoners follow, so says Lord Krishna in the Gita.
In one verse the Lord says "I do not need to work, yet
I am working continuously, because if I stop working,
everybody would do the same, resulting in total
chaos "This is the leadership quality prescribed in the
Gita. The visionary leader must also be a missionary,
extremely practical, intensively dynamic and capable
of translating dreams into reality.
The Ultimate Message of Gita for
managers
Sri Krishna by sheer power of his inspiring words
raised the level of Arjuna's mind from the state of
inertia to the state of righteous action, from the state of
faithlessness to the state of faith and self-confdence in
the ultimate victory of Dharma (ethical action). They
are the powerful words of courage of strength, of self
confdence, of faith in one's own infnite power, of
the glory, of valour in the life of active people and of
the need for intense calmness in the midst of intense
action.
When Arjuna got over his despondency and stood
ready to fght, Sri Krishna gave him the gospel for using
his spirit of intense action not for his own beneft, not
for satisfying his own greed and desire, but for using his
action for the good of many with faith in the ultimate
victory of ethics over unethical actions and truth over
untruth.
The message of the Gita is meant for people who
are actively involved in the battlefeld of life. This is
Karma Yoga the path of action. The Gita is meant to be
studied and used by the businessman, the professional,
the blue-collar employee, the housewife and by a
soldier in the armed forces. This is a message for those
wanting to live life to the full not for those who want
to renounce it.
I was not surprised when I read in business standard
magazine that most of the corporate companies in US
conducts classes of Bhagavad Gita for their employees
to develop their personality and stress management
skills. But the unfortunate part is we the inheritors of
Bhagavad Gita are fghting in the court questioning the
decision of a government to teach Gita in schools.

rajarajan Ganesan
The Rakshaa Bandhan stirs up one of the deepest
and noblest emotions in the human heart - the abiding
and chaste bond of love between the brother and the
sister.
The delicate cord tied by the sister to the brother
on this day pulsates with this sublime sentiment.
History and legends of Bharat abound in touching
episodes of ladies seeking protection from far-off,
unacquainted heroes, though the Raakhi. A story is
told of Alexander's wife approaching his mighty Hindu
adversary Pururavas and tying Raakhi on his hand,
seeking assurance from him for saving the life of her
husband on the battlefeld. And the great Hindu king,
in the true traditional Kshatriya style, responded; and
as the legend goes, just as he raised his hand to deliver
a mortal blow to Alexander, he saw the Raakhi on his
own hand and restrained from striking.
A more poignant instance is of the princess of a small
Rajput principality. It speaks of the spell the Raakhi
had cast even on those of alien faiths. The princess sent
a Raakhi to the Moghal Emperor Humayun to save her
honor from the onslaught of the Gujarat Sultan. The
emperor, who was engaged in an expedition against
Bengal, turned back and hastened to the rescue of his
Raakhi sister. But, alas, to his utmost sorrow, he found
that the kingdom had already been overrun and the
princess had committed Jauhaar, i.e., leaped into the
fames to save her honor.
The sister-brother relationship highlighted by the
Raakhi goes far beyond the mere personal protection of
a female from a male. It also implies the basic element
of an amicable and harmonious social life where all
members of the society look upon themselves as brothers
and sisters and as children of one common motherland.
The Raakhi function carries this social content.
Particularly, the tying of Raakhi to one another signifes
this social and cultural aspect. Not only does the
person develop a sense of love and affection amongst
themselves but they also affrm their loyalty and
devotion to the society of which they are the children.
Their commitment to protect each other and also the
society as a whole is emphasized through this simple
ceremony.
In the Indian tradition the Rakshaa has indeed assumed
all aspects of protection of the forces of righteousness
from the forces of evil. Once, Yudhishthira asked
Sri Krishna how best he could guard himself against
impending evils and catastrophes in the coming year.
Krishna advised him to observe the Rakshaa Ceremony.
He also narrated an old incident to show how potent the
Rakshaa is.
Once, Indra was confronted by the demon king -
the Daitya-raaja - in a long-drawn battle. At one stage,
the Daitya-raaja got better of Indra and drove him into
wilderness. Indra, humbled and crest-fallen, sought
Cultural
kmwkvImcnIw
the advice of Brihaspati, the Guru of Gods. The Guru
told him to bide his time, prepare himself and then
march against his adversary. He also indicated that the
auspicious moment for sallying forth was the Shraavana
Poornima. On that day, Shachee Devi, the wife of
Indra, and Brihaspati tied Raakhis around Indra's right-
wrist. Indra then advanced against the Daitya-raaja,
vanquished him and reestablished his sovereignty.
The Rakshaa has several similar pauraanik
associations. The following couplet is recited, especially
in the northern parts, while tying the Raakhi. It denotes
how the King Bali had become so powerful with the
Raakhi on:
Yena baddho Balee raajaa daanavendro mahaabalah |
tena twaam anubadhnaami rakshe maa
chala maa chala ||
(I am tying a Rakshaa to you, similar to the one tied
to Bali the powerful king of demons. Oh Rakshaa, be
frm, do not waver.)
It is not merely that the spirit of Rakshaa manifests
itself on occasions of mortal peril to the life and honor
of the beloved ones or to the society. It is not like the
police or the militia which are expected to come to the
rescue of the people in times of war or natural calamities.
No, it is far more deep and all-encompassing. It is like
the fow of bloodstream through every limb and organ
of the body, carrying strength and nourishment to every
cell thereof. As a result, even a small wound anywhere
in the body is promptly attended to by the entire body.
Every other limb spontaneously sacrifces a part of
its blood and energy to heal that wound and keep that
organ healthy and strong.
This is how the society can live and prosper amidst
all kinds of challenges either from within or without.
Especially, various types of internal stresses and strains
which are generated in the body-politic of a nation
because of ever-changing economic, political and other
factors can be overcome only on the strength of this
inner fow of mutual affection and amity.
With the increase of western concepts and shades
of western culture slowly entering into the mental
psyche of our new generation It is essential to spread
the message of this important festival amongst the
society. We are witnessing increased cases of immoral
relationships and a casual disregard for family values
and customs in our campus across the country.
Raksha bandan is not only simple custom held sacred
by siblings. It has evolved into a national celebration
and the bond that is being created serves as a strong
relations ship within the society. This makes the society
healthy, gives energy and peace.
A society imbued with this spirit will see to it that
every one of its members is made happy. The idea of the
bharateeyan has always been:
Sarvepi sukhinassantu, sarve santu niraamayaah |
Sarve bhadraani pashyantu, maa kashchit
duhkhabhaag bhavet ||
(Let everyone be happy, let everyone be free from
all ills, let everyone behold only the auspicious, let no
one be afficted.)
In short, Raksha Bandhan affords a most auspicious
occasion to recharge ourselves every year with the true
spirit of service and sacrifce for the welfare of the
society, and fnd therein the highest spiritual fulfllment
of human life.

The clarion call
for freedom
Freedom struggles are always painted in glory in the
colours of the sacrifces of many great leaders, fghters,
artists and sages. It holds true for every country in the
world.
In our nation many of them have been glorifed by
the government's that took power. Many have had their
statues built across the country. Many have had their
names got included based on the political affliations,
in the educational books of the new generation. Many
of them have been defamed based on the ideological
differences and many of them have been forgotten or
erased from the memory of the nation in time. Many
have been given small pensions to survive and many
have been denied this too.
Today would be the ideal day for the children of
India to spend some time to pay homage to the hundreds
of people who laid down their life for the freedom we
enjoy today. As we go through history we take a few
words to remember them here.
On 3rd August, we prayed on the
occasion of the maha samadhi of
H.H. Swami Chinmayanandaji.
Many of us wouldn't know that in his
purva ashram he took part in the Quit
India Movement. He used to write and
distribute fery pamphlets that inspired
many. He even courageously worked in the offce of the
intelligence wing of the British Military as a spy. He
was arrested and put in jail for his participation in the
freedom struggle.
In July we also honored martyr
Udham Singh or Ram Mohammed
Singh Azad. He was famously known
for killing Michael O'Dwyer avenging
the Jallianwallah Bagh massacre. Along
with many of the patriots of his time, he
felt that arms struggle is the only way to
gain freedom for our country from the
British. For 21 years he carried the hurt of the massacre
in his heart and fnally found his way to London
where he took his revenge. Unfortunately many senior
congress leaders at that time condemned his actions. He
was executed on 31 July 1940.
In July, the nation also forgot the
birth anniversary of one of the greatest
revolutionary freedom fghter of our
times, Chandra Sekhar Tiwari
Azad. At the height of the freedom
struggle, he along with Baghat Singh,
Sukhdev sparked the revolutionary
struggle against the British in defance of the non-
violence call of Gandhiji. He was a mentor to the
fghters. One February 31, 1931, after unsuccessfully
trying to convince Jawaharlal Nehru to intervene on
behalf of Baghat SIngh, he was asked to leave the
residence of Nehru. Later in the day he was surrounded
by the British police in Alfred Park. In
order not to be caught alive, he shot
himself.
Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar
Tilak was our countrys strongest
proponent of the 'swaraj' principle.
India today still quotes his famous
lines '"Swaraj is my birth right, and I
shall have it". Tilak was of the extremist faction within
the Congress that opposed the soft approach of the
party. Along with Bipin Chandra Pal and Lala Lajpat
Rai, he advocated strong action. He was imprisoned for
his advocation of 'direct action' and 'self rule'. He was
later instrumental in starting the famous 'Ganesh Utsav'
and 'Shiv Utsav' as socially important
functions in Maharasthra.
Begum Hazrat Mahal also known
as Begum of Awadh, led a revolt against
the British in 1857. She succeeded in
capturing and gaining control over the
state of Lucknow. She worked together
with other eminent leaders of those
times like Nana Sahib. She refused to accept any kind of
favors and allowances offered by the British rulers. She
used all her might for freeing the state of Awadh from
the clutches of the British Raj authorities. She died in
Nepal after having taken asylum there.
Kittur Rani Chennamma, was
the queen of the princely state of Kittur
in Karnataka. In 1824, 33 years before
the 1857 war of independence, she led an
armed rebellion against the British. The
resistance ended in her martyrdom and
she is remembered today as one of the
earliest Indian rulers to have fought for independence.

Jayaprakash Narayan also known
as JP was a freedom fghter and
political activist mostly remembered
for the fght he led against the greatest
test of our democracy in 1970's, The
Emergency by Indira Gandhi. During
the Independence struggle, he led the
left wing group within the Congress. He was jailed
many times during the revolution. He died in October
1979.
Rash Bihari Bose was a ferce
revolutionary leader who fought
against the British imperialism in
India. After a ferce bomb attack on
the Governor General and Viceroy, he
escaped to Japan. He formed the Indian
Independence League and persuaded
the Japanese to support the Indian
Nationalists. He persuaded the Indian soldiers in the
British Army to join the Netaji's INA .He was killed at
the end of the World War 2.
Basanta Kumar Biswas was a
pro-independence activist involved in
the Jugantar group who is believed to
have bombed the Viceroy's Parade in
1912.On 23 December 1912, Biswas,
disguised as a woman, threw a bomb
at Lord Charles Hardinge in Delhi.
Police arrested him and he was hanged
in 1915.
Dinesh Chandra Gupta was
a Bengali revolutionary who fought
against British colonial rule. While
he was studying in Dhaka College,
Dinesh joined Bengal Volunteers - a
group organised by Subhas Chandra
Bose in 1928. He shot himself during
the famous attack on the Writer's Building in Kolkata
in 1930 so that he would not be caught and died in the
jail.
Vinyaka Damodar Savarkar
was a freedom fghter and right wing
revolutionary whose philosophy of
Hindutva sought to create an inclusive
collective identity for the nation
proud of its roots and deeply patriotic.
Savarkar's contribution to Indian
Freedom Struggle has been immense, starting from his
student days in London, where he organized the Indians
in England, and France from the famous India House,
where he wrote the famous book First Indian War of
Independence, inspiring Indians to remember martyrs
of 1857, and motivating them to carry on second war of
independence. English government at that time arrested
him on political charges of waging a war against the
English king, for which he was sentenced to 50 years of
imprisonment in 1907 which was unheard of in Indian
political circles. No Congress politician was sentenced
to such a long and rigorous imprisonment. His entire
life was devoted to bring India freedom, from his works
and actions. He was jailed in the dangerous Andaman
jails for 10 years where he was brutally tortured. He was
the president of the Hindu Mahasabha for six years and
strongly opposed the Partition of India. He was arrested
for the assassination of Gandhiji and later let free. He
died in 1966. The then Government of India completely
ignored his contributions and refused to recognize him
as a freedom fghter just because of their ideological
differences.
Veerapandiya Kattabomman
from Tamil Nadu fought against the
British early in the 18th century.
Kattabomma Naicker was one of the
earliest to oppose British rule. After
a bloody war with the British he was
captured by the British and was hanged
in 1799 CE. His fort was destroyed and his wealth was
looted by the British army. He along with Thanapathi
Pillai and Soundra Pandian Nayak, are some of the
names that the Indian history books have completely
forgotten.
Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja,
known as the Lion of Kerala was
a prince from the royal dynasty of
Pazhassi Kottayam in the late 18th
century. Pazhassi Raja led a well
organized guerrilla struggle against
the Mysorean invaders of his land. The
people of his state stood frmly behind him. He drew his
fghters from the warrior as well as the tribals classes.
Unfortunately, like many Indian Kings, Pazhassi also
took the help of the British to fght the Mysore army.
They later wanted to arrest him and Pazhassi started
a long fought war with them. He was
found dead later during the attack on
his jungle camp.

infuential revolutionaries of the
Indian independence movement. For
this reason, he is often referred to as
Shaheed Bhagat Singh. As a teenager,

movements and was attracted to
anarchism and communism. He became
involved in numerous revolutionary organizations.

to be the Prime Minister of free India upon Gandhiji's
request. He was instrumental in the restoration of the
Somnath temple. He died on 15 December 1950
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose is another hero
of the Independence struggle who is still unspoken off
offcially even today. He worked with
the Congress Party and then split away
from it due to differences in opinion on
the biased way they looked at Baghat
Singh and many other patriots cases.
He went to Hitler and Mussolini asking
for help to fght the British and liberate
India. He formed the Indian National
Army and marched from Japan to India. His death is
still a mystery kept under wraps by the government.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was a valiant
Maratha king who fought against the frst invaders of
our country, the Mughals. He is famous
for the guerrila warfare tactics he used
to defeat his enemies. He established
the Maratha kingdom in 1674. He

feld was respected by his enemies even. He inspired
and united the common man to fght against the tyranny
of Mughal ruler Aurangzeb, by inculcating a sense of
pride and nationality in them
Sri Aurobindo was a nationalist freedom fghter
and philosopher. His aggressive stand on issues and
radical approach often lead to friction
within the Congress. He was jailed

and speeches became great inspiration
to the freedom movement.
Mangal Pandey, a resident of
Uttar Pradesh, was a soldier in the army of the British
East India Company. At the time of the First War of
Independence, the company introduced
new rifes, which used animal fat for
greasing the cartridges. Infuenced
by the example of his compatriots in
Berhampur, Mangal Panday refused to
use the greased cartridges and broke
into open mutiny on March 29, 1857,
at Barrackpore near Calcutta and
urged his comrades to join him. Surrounded by guards
and European Offcers, he tried to commit suicide by
shooting himself and was seriously wounded. He was
court-martialled on April 6, and hanged at Barrackpore
on April 8, 1857.
Tantya Tope also known as Ram Chandra
Pandurang was born in Maharashtra. He became a close
compatriot of Nana Saheb and fought
the British. He urged the Indian troops
of the East India Company to revolt in
Kanpur. He then joined hands with Rani
Laxmi Bai and led the famous revolt at
Bundelkhand. He was defeated and had
to withdraw. He then led many small
guerilla campaigns. He was betrayed
by his friend and was executed in 1859.
Rani Laxmibai was born in 1830 and was married
to King Gangadhar Rao of Jhansi. After her husband's
death, the British tried to annexe her kingdom. Rani
Laxmibai fought a brave battle against
the British. The British captured Jhansi
and Rani Laxmibar was later martyred
in 1858 fghting bravely. Her example
is immortal in Indian history for
her bravery and struggle against the
British.
Maharana Pratap was a great Rajput King.
The Rajputs are brave and chivalrous races who were
feudal kings in ancient India before the
Mughals came. They were the frst to
resist the Mughal invaders and many

Rajputs against the army of Akbar to
preserve the independence of Mewar.
Rana Pratap not only had to face the
mighty Mughals. Rana Pratap died in 1597 injured in
the battlefeld.
Guru Gobind Singh Ji is one of the most
radiant stars in the galaxy of religious leaders. Time
cannot wither nor stale the luster of
the sacrifces that he made for the
cause of religious freedom. His life
is an inspiration and showcases all
that is positive in our religious and
spiritual life. He was a great poet, a
mystic scholar, a fne soldier, a tactical
General, and an astute politician. He
consolidated the Sikhs into a body of brave fghting
people with common loyalty and common purpose. He
lost his sons fghting the Mughals. He died nursing a
bleeding caused by a spy who stabbed him. He declared
the Guru Granth Sahib as his successor.
Ramprasad Bismil was a brave revolutionary
who gave up his life smilingly for the sake of the
Motherland. He was persecuted by an
enraged foreign government, hunted
by the police and betrayed by follow
workers. And yet he lit the fre of
revolution to burn down the slavery.
While in jail, his mother came to
comfort him and scolded him for being
afraid of death. She told him to be brave
and die for the nation. He went to the gallows shouting
Vande Mataram and Bharat Mata ki Jai (these calls
are considered communal in our days). Ramaprasad
Bismil joined the select band of martyrs who dreamt of
a free India and made the supreme sacrifce, so that the
dream might come true.
Madame Cama was the fery patriot who frst
unfurled India's fag at an international
assembly. Madame Cama, Veer
Savarkar and some other patriots met
and designed that tricolor fag in 1905.
It was fown frst in 1905 in Berlin and
next in 1907 in Bengal. The tricolor fag
contained green, saffron and red stripes.
Bharath
Dharshan
`mcX Zi\w
In the green stripe at the top there were eight blooming
lotuses. The words 'Vande Mataram' in Devanagari
script across the central saffron strip of the fag were a
salutation to Mother India. She may be called Mother
India's representative to the United States of America.
She cautioned the Indian soldiers in the British Army
not to fght alongside them in the First World War.
Madame Cama passed away on 13th August 1936. She
had fought for India's freedom. That freedom dawned
eleven years after her death.
Dr. Keshav Baliram Hedgewar was fery
patriot who was greatly infuenced by the work of
secret revolutionary organizations and freedom fghters
during his college days. He went to prison twice. He
was also a close congress worker and was also the chief
in charge of the volunteers cadre overseeing the INC
session of 1920. He later had his differences of opinion
with how the congress was working and started his own
organization. He was close to Tilak and Dr, Moonje
who formed the rightist faction of the Congress. He
sent a letter to Nehru when the INC Lahore session was
taking place to include Paripoorna Swarajya as the
main demand in the resolution being passed.
Subramanya Bharathiyar was a Tamil poet
from Tamil Nadu, India, an independence fghter and
iconoclastic reformer. Known as Mahakavi Bharathiyar,
he is celebrated as one of India's greatest poets. His
compositions helped rally the masses
to support the Indian independence
movement in South India. Bharathi
supported the Tilak and Aurbindo
faction within the Congress along with
V.O.Chidambrama Pillai and Kanchi
Varathaachariyar. They openly called
for armed revolt against the British. He
is referred to as the National Poet of India. He had to
remain in exile in Pondicherry for a long period. He
passed away in 1921 due to bad health that worsened
after his successive imprisonments.
Bipin Chandra Pal was an Indian nationalist,
among the triumvirate of Lal Bal Pal. The trio was
responsible for initiating the frst popular upsurge
against British colonial policy in the
1905 partition of Bengal, before the
advent of Gandhi into Indian politics.
He was a strong opponent of Gandhijis
ideas on non violence and appeasement.
The trio had advocated radical means to
get their message across to the British,
like boycotting British manufactured goods, burning
Western clothes made in the mills of Manchester or
Swadeshi and strikes and lockouts of British owned
businesses and industrial concerns. He died on May 20,
1932.
In Kerala also we had may stalwarts who are
remembered for their contributions like V.K. Krishna
Menon, Vakkom Majeed, K. Kelappan, K. P.
Kesava Menon, A. V. Kuttimalu Amma, M.
Kanaran, Lakshmi Sehgal, E.M.S. Sankaran
Namboodiripad, A.K.Gopalan, Panampilli
Govinda Menon, Accamma Cherian and many
more.
So many more unknown patriots fought this war for
us. The First War of Independence in 1857 ignited the
fre of freedom within every Indian across the nation.
So many people gave up their life across the nation at
the call of our leaders and fought alongside them.
This article is not written to highlight the
achievements of a few and the names not mentioned are
in no way less honored for their contributions. We want
you all to remember these people for what they stood
for. For the courage they showed in sacrifcing their
lives for our nation. We need to read their stories and
think to ourselves. Are we living the life they fought
for? Is this what they died for? Have we actually gained
our freedom or did we simply pass the baton from the
British and other invaders to the hands of a corrupt
system?
Our hard fought freedom and Independence was
gained by the struggle of our patriots. Our freedom
fghters fought for the nation without considering caste,
creed, religion, language or wealth. The philosophy
of Nationalism is the only motivation they had and it
build their courage to give up life for the cause. We
need to take cue from them and realize that the spirit
of Nationalism is the only way our Nation can stand
frm on its feet. Every Indian needs to feel proud of
his nation, his culture and his heritage. And that is the
only way we can pay tribute to these great leaders who
ensured we are free today.

Once Gandhiji was visiting Orrisa with a social worker
Sri.Gopabandudas. They were waiting at the railway
station expecting a train. A tired old tribal person dressed
only in a single piece came running towards them. He
had recognized Gandhiji from photos and posters. He
did a pranam by touching his feet with homage. Then
he dedicated one coin which was kept in his old cloth
bundle. At that time Gandhiji asked what he was doing.
He replied very humbly, we should dedicate something
as offering when having a darshan of God. Then Gandhiji
told to Gopabandhu Das, this was the soul of Bharath.
Even when the poorest of the poor living in Bharath
follows the salient feature of our Dharma, We should
help our fellow human beings in need without expecting
anything in return.
All Bharateeyans should follow this dharmic way of
life to attain bliss in our lives.
On 03rd December 1984, at midnight deadly cyanide
gas leaked out of the Union Carbide plant in Bhopal.
At this time station master Mr. Dhruve was on duty at
Bhopal railway station. He was on the platform giving
the green signal to a train going from Lucknow to
Bombay (Mumbai). At that time he felt some diffculty
to breath. He looked around and saw dead dogs on the
platform and saw people fainting and falling on the
platform. He rushed to the control room and saw his
assistant had fainted at the controls. With great diffculty
and showing presence of mind he alerted all the railway
stations to halt all trains moving towards Bhopal station.
And if the train was already approaching he station to
inform them somehow to close all doors and seal all the
windows and the trains should not stop in Bhopal under
any circumstances as there was something wrong in the
air and people were not able to breathe. In case any train
is coming this way, please inform them to close doors
and windows and pass through without stopping here.
The next day morning the people found Mr. Dhruve dead
in the control room with the speakerphone in his hands.
One hundred and nineteen people died on the train that
left Bhopal towards Bombay.
With quick presence of mind he single handedly saved
the lives of thousands of people by halting all train traffc
to his station which he commandeered. He sacrifced his
own life for the safety of his fellow human beings.

Vishnu is considered as the god of protection in hindu
purana.Krishna was an avathar of Vishnu.The residents
of Vrindavana were depended on Krishna to protect
them.
There is a story:-
Every year the people of Vrindavana worshiped
Lord Indra for supplying rain. One year when Krishna
was a youth, He asked Nanda to worship Govardhana
Hill instead of Indra. Krishna argued, "We do not get
any special beneft from Indra.It is Govardhana Hill and
Vrindavana forestsupplying us rain. Let us have nothing
to do with Indra."
King Nanda fnally agreed with Krishna and prepared
to offer the sacrifce to Govardhana Hill. This made Lord
Indra angry and jealous. Forgetting the divine position
of Krishna, Indra reasoned, "These cowherd men in
Vrindavana have neglected my authority on the advice
of this talkative boy who is known as Krishna. He is
nothing but a child, and by believing this child, they have
enraged me.I will teach him a lesson". Indra then sent a
heavy rain to destroy Vrindavana.All the people and
animals came to Krishna for shelter, and in a miraculous
show of strength, Krishna lifted Govardhana Hill with
one fnger to make the mountain into a huge umbrella.
Everyone crowded underneath it and remained safe until
the rains stopped. Later, Lord Indra realized his mistake
in attacking Krishna and apologized.

Shad Garbhas-
the first six
babies of Devaki
Duing Vasudeva and Devaki's marriage;Kamsa was
informed that the eighth son of devaki would be the
cause of his death.He got scared.He thought of killing
Devaki.But vasudeva promised to give all the babies that
Devaki might give birth to.Kamsa's arrangements for his
own protection caused disturbances for the people.
Mahavishnu knew that kamsa is going to kill the frst
6 newborn babies of Devaki.Time was near for Vishnu for
his eighth AVATHARA as Krishna.But he was worried
about the frst six babies of Devaki.
During that time sad-garbhas were resideing in patal
loka.They were the sons of Kalanemi and the grand sons
of Hirnya kashipu.
Sad-garbhas worshiped Brahma and got boon that
they will never be infuenced by any curses,and they will
never be killed by Yakshas,Gandharvas,Sidhas,or Human
beings.When Hiranya kashipu came to know about this
he got angry for approaching Brahma instead of him,and
cursed sad-garbhas when they take rebirth they will be
killed by their present father Kalanemi one by one.Kamsa
is the rebirth of Kalanemi.So Vishnu went to patal loka
and took sad-garbha's soul and gave it to Nidra devi and
asked her to send them one by one to devaki's womb.
Sad -garbhas took birth as Devaki's frst 6 sons and they
were killed by Kamsa. When Devaki came to know
that Krishna found guru Sandipani's missing son she
wished to see her frst six babies.Knowing his mother's
wish Krishna bring those six babies back from Vaikunda.
Devaki was so happy to see her babies.With his mother's
permission Krishna took them back to Vaikunda.

On the ocassion of Sri Krishna Janmashtami, we
would like to present to our children a short play they
can adapt and present in their schools.
Shri Krishna
Janmashtami
Duration: 20 minutes
Comments in italics should be spoken by the
announcer of the play. The starting and ending of a scene
must also be announced.
Shri Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead,
was born in a prison in the city of Mathura, ruled at the
time by a brutal king Kansa of the Yadu dynasty, who had
imprisoned his own elderly father, Ugrasen, on order to
become king. He tortured all devotees of the lord and
decreed that he alone was supreme. The people in his
kingdom suffered under him and prayed that they be
saved. Alarmed at the state of their devotees on earth,
and touched by their cries for help, the Devatas, led by
Indra, Brahmaji and others approached Bhagwan Vishnu
in Vaikuntha.
Scene I
Brahmaji: Glory to you Bhagwan Vishnu. We come
here to seek your help and blessings so that your universe
can live in peace.
Bhagwan Vishnu: Glory as well to you Pitamah.
Indra, please tell me why all the Devatas have come all
the way to my abode.
Indra: Bhagwan, people on earth are suffering at the
hands of a brutal king, who rules in Mathura, having
imprisoned his own father. The Dvapar Yuga is coming
to a close, O Lord. We are very worried about the future
of humanity.
Bhagwan Vishnu: Fear not O Devatas. It is time for
me to take avatar on earth and rid it once again of evil. I
will soon take birth in Mathura to Devaki and Vasudev.
I will kill Kansa and other persons of demonic character
and restore peace to Prithivi Devi.
Brahmaji and All Devatas: All hail Bhagwan Vishnu,
the protector of the weak and the refuge of all good men.
End of Scene I
Scene II
In Mathura, it is a time for festivities for Devaki,
Kansa's sister, has just married Vasudev, a friend of
Kansa. Kansa is overjoyed and decides to drive their
chariot himself. As Devaki is leaving the royal palace, a
sadhu approaches the royal procession and obstructs the
path of Kansa.
Sadhu: Kansa, you are happy today while your people
weep because of your cruelty. But that day has come that
I was waiting for.
Kansa: Crazy Sadhu, get out of the way. If it is gold
you desire, you will be given your heart's fll.
Sadhu: I do not need your gold O wicked one. I have
only come to express joy at the union of Devaki with
Vasudev. It is the beginning of your end.
Kansa (laughing): Perhaps staying in the forest has
caused your senses to become covered with ant-hills. Do
you know that I am all-powerful.
Sadhu: Laugh all you want Kansa. Devaki's son will
kill you with his bare hands.
Kansa: What nonsense! Guards, get this Sadhu out
of here.
Sadhu: Kansa, Sadhus do not speak an untruth.
(looking skywards) Bhagwan, please tell this wicked
one that I do not lie.
Just then a akashvani (celestial voice) rings in the
sky
Akashvani: Kansa, the eighth son of Devaki will slay
you.
Kansa gets scared at this. He instructs his guards
to immediately arrest Vasudev and Devaki. While in
prison, Vasudev and Devaki give birth to six children,
each of whom is brutally killed by Kansa. When Devaki
is pregnant with her seventh child, Rohini, another
wife of Vasudev, pays them a visit in prison and takes
the pregnant child of Devaki. This child grew up to be
Balaram. Through the grace of the lord, Devaki and
Vasudev manage to smuggle out their eighth child out
of the prison and take him to Gokul, in the house of
Vasudev's friend Nanda and his wife Yashoda. Vasudev
returns to the prison of Kansa. The eighth child grows
up in Gokul surrounded by the cows of Nanda and the
adoring love of Yashoda. He was Shri Krishna.
End of Scene II
Growing up in Gokul was fun. In the morning you
took the cows out to the pastures by the holy Yamuna
river. There, as the cows grazed, you played all day with
the cowherds. In his leela here on earth, Shri Krishna
appeared as just another cowherd. All the cowherds loved
to be around Shri Krishna. When he would start playing
his fute, the whole atmosphere used to become divine.
The cows would forget their eating and come running.
The cowherds would forget their games and fght with
one another to be closer to Shri Krishna. Whoever heard
the music from Shri Krishna's fute could not help but
run to him.
But Bhagwan Shri Krishna never did reveal his

_metemIw

divine powers to everyone. To all his friends, he was their
beloved Shri Krishna. Another incident in Braj, reveals
how even Shri Krishna's closest devotees could not see
his divinity.
Scene III
The residents of Gokul used to worship Indra, the King
of the Devatas, every year to bring good rains. Once,
as the preparations for worship of Indra were about
to start, Shri Krishna asked as to why Indra was being
worshipped. When he was told that it was to bring in
good rains, he said that they should instead worship the
Govardhan Hill, because it was because of the mountain
that the area got good rains. When the people started
to prepare for worshipping the Govardhan Hill, Indra
became furious.
Indra: How dare the people of Gokul thank anyone
but me for their good rains? It is because of me that they
have good rainfall. I will punish them for worshipping a
mere mountain.
So saying, Indra orders a cloud to burst over Gokul.
Immediately, the whole village is fooded and heavy rains
lash down on the area. Shri Krishna calls for everyone
to take refuge in the Govardhan Hill. He lifts the whole
mountain with his little fnger and the whole village
gathers under the mountain. Others try and support
the mountain with their bodies and sticks. However all
their effort is not necessary as Shri Krishna's little fnger
is enough. But still they think they are supporting the
mountain!
Shri Krishna: Look at the holy Govardhan Hill. It is
protecting its devotees even from the rains of Indra.
People (chorus): Govardhan Parvat Ki Jai
Person 1: O Krishna, how long do we have to be like
this? Our homes are fooded and we have nothing to go
back to.
Shri Krishna: Do not worry brother, all this will end
very soon.
Meanwhile, all the friends of Krishna, who are using
their hands, bodies and sticks to support the mountain
look at Shri Krishna and see him using his little fnger.
Seeing this they get angry.
Friend 1: Shridama, Madhumangal, everyone, come
and see this. Look, we are using both our hands and our
sticks to support this heavy mountain and look at this
royal prince Krishna; he is using his little fnger.
Shridama: Ai Kanua (a slang for Shri Shri Krishna -
the name the cowherds used for him), you think you are
some royal prince?
Madhumangal: Right said Shridama. My hands are
aching even as I speak and this Kanua is acting as if he
is a little fower.
Shri Krishna smiles at this friends and their love, in
the form of their fake anger, gives him unlimited joy. He
knows their hearts because they have caused him to live
there permanently.
End of Scene III
Scene IV
Bhagwan knew that he would soon have to go to
Mathura to slay Kansa. When the news of his departure
reached the people of Braj, everyone was broken hearted.
The tears of the Gopis, the Gwalbal and others knew no
stopping, what to speak of Mother Yashoda. However,
just like the river Ganga does not stay in the Himalayas
but fows all the way to Gangasagar, to wash the sins of
millions, even so, Bhagwan Shri Krishna had to leave
Gokul so other thirsting souls could get a glimpse of
him.
Upon arriving in Mathura, he killed his cruel uncle
Kansa and re-installed his grandfather Ugrasen on the
throne of the kingdom. However, because of attacks
from neighboring kingdoms, Mathura knew no peace. So
Shri Krishna decided to move the capital of the kingdom
to Dwarka, on the coast of Sindhusagar. Here, the
people lived in peace. In due course, the Kuru dynasty
of Hastinapur started preparing for a war between the
Pandavas and the Kauravas.
Shri Krishna agreed to drive the chariot of Arjuna, a
Pandava. Shri Krishna's army was given in the services
of the Kaurava army. On the battlefeld of Kruskshetra,
Arjuna, seeing his grandfather, his uncles, his guru
and his cousins getting ready to fght him, said to Shri
Krishna.
Arjuna: O Shri Krishna, my throat is dry, and hands
shake and my kneed tremble. Not because I am coward
but because I am about to fght a war that I can win only
if I kill those dear to me. Of what use will be a kingdom
won by killing one's own loved ones?
Shri Krishna: Arjuna, such fear does not look good on
a brave warrior such as yourself. It is your duty to fght
this battle as a Kshatriya.
Arjuna: Bhagwan, it is said that the aim of life is
to seek God. Why should I not take Sannyas, retire to
the mountains and spend the rest of my life in prayer in
meditation?
Shri Krishna: Arjun, you say this not because you
truly seek God, but because you do not wish to slay your
loved ones. In such a state, you cannot seek God. I tell
you this because I know you and I am your friend. Do not
fear. What you think you will destroy is only the fesh,
which like clothes, the Atma ever changes in its journey
towards me. The Atma cannot be destroyed.
Bala Lokam
_metemIw
Arjuna: My lord, I am your devotee. But if I kill,
would that not be sinful for your devotee?
Shri Krishna: Arjuna, it is fair to kill those who are
aligned with the forces of falsehood and unrighteousness.
Now, forget even if your are worried about Dharma and
Adharma, I tell you to leave all thoughts of what is right
and what is wrong and surrender yourself completely to
me. Take refuge in me I will not only forgive all your sins,
but I will also give you Moksha, which is the ultimate
goal of life. But fght you must.
Arjuna: Bhagwan, my strength returns, thanks to your
encouraging words. I am ready to pick up the Gandiva
(Arjuna's bow) and I am ready for this Dharmayudha
(battle for the establishment of Dharma).
In the war of Mahabharata, which lasted for 18 days,
the Pandavas emerged victorious. The message from Shri
Krishna to Arjuna has become immortalized as Shrimad
Bhagwat Gita, which even today gives saintly advice to
all who seek it, irrespective of any barrier.
End of Scene IV
Today, we are living in the Kali Yuga, the dark age.
Truthfulness, dharma, kindness, these are taken as
weaknesses. On the other hand, might-is-right, make-
hay-while-the-sun-shines, these have become the motto
of most people. In such times, it is only faith that can
sustain us. Faith in Shri Krishna and faith in the words
of our scriptures. Let us see how different types of people
live in the present day.
Scene V
The scene is a room full of people, somewhere on
earth. One of the persons is a successful banker, another
a successful lawyer. Yet another is a famous doctor and
another is a pioneering engineer. They are all famous
and at the peak of their careers. However, they are not
happy. They are discussing their lives when a sadhu
happens to listen in.
Banker: I create wealth worth millions of dollars every
day. In a month, I make at least a million dollars. But I
cannot say I am happy. Last month, my 5-year old son
fell seriously ill and he was in the hospital for 5 days. I
looked out of the hospital window and saw a man sitting
on the streets begging. I thought, that beggar is happier
than I am.
Doctor: I have cured hundreds of people of diseases.
But it seems I have no cure for my unhappiness. My
children do not listen to me and do not respect me.
Lawyer: My doctor friend, I too have helped people
win lawsuits. But it seems I could not prevent my own
divorce. At the divorce hearing, my wife said I was too
busy fghting for my clients that I forgot to look after my
own family.
Engineer: That is indeed sad. It seems like we are
very successful men but are also unhappy. Alas, is there
any cure for our disease? Why hasn't money protected us
from unhappiness? I wish I knew.
At this point the Sadhu looks at the four friends and
addresses them.
Sadhu: Dear brothers, I have been listening to your
conversation. I myself am a very poor man and I have
nothing - no house, no wife, no children and no money.
But I am very happy.
All Four: Then how can you say you are happy?
Sadhu: I sleep under the blue sky that God has created,
I eat the fruits that grow because God waters them, and
I drink the water in the rivers that God causes to fow.
I live in the forest and say the name of Krishna all day.
This gives me happiness.
All Four: How can having nothing and saying
Krishna's name give you happiness? You need something
at least to survive, don't you?
Sadhu: Brothers, you are unhappy because you put
your own needs in the middle and run your life around
it. I am happy because I put the source of all happiness
- Krishna - in the middle and run my life around Him.
When I run my life around the source of happiness itself,
what else can I be but happy?
All Four: O Sadhu, we understand you. Please help
us. Tell us how we too can put Krishna in our lives?
Sadhu: Brothers, do not run after your needs and
desires. Think more of others and less of yourself.
Practice truthfulness and be ever ready to help those in
need. Krishna is pleased with very little if one's heart is
pure. Take Krishna's name everyday and happiness will
come to you itself.
All Four: What if we are not able to do what you say?
What if we fail O Sadhu?
Sadhu: Krishna only wants you to make a sincere
effort. Leave the rest to him. Take one step towards him
and he will take ten steps towards you. Fear not brothers,
Krishna ever hears the call of his bhaktas. Take the frst
small step towards the source of unending bliss. Take the
frst small step towards Krishna.
All Four: Thank you dear Sadhu. We will try, and if
we fail, we will try again. But you have opened our eyes
today. Thank you.
So saying, the four friends go back to their lives with
hope in their hearts. The sadhu goes back to the Lord's
forest.
