On 28-4-2024, ‘Vidya Bharati Vignana Kendra’ at Nadergul was inaugurated by Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh Sar Sangh Chalak Sri Mohan Bhagwat ji and Sri Sri Tridandi Chinnajeeyar Swamy. The program was started with the dance performance of Sri Vidyaranya International School students under the guidance of Padma Shri Mataji. Next, kshetra adhyaksha Shri Umamaheswar Garu, Retd. IAS unveiled the book titled “Ivvadamlone Anandam” authored by Shri Lingam Sudhakar Reddy garu. He shared that this book was written not only with his experiences but also with the advice of others. The Secretary of the VBVK, Mr. Vishnuvardhan Raju invited the guests.
Sri Tridandi Chinnajeeyar Swamiji and Mohan Bhagwat ji to lighten the lamp. After Jyoti Prajwalana, the guests were offered devotional service. Telukunta Ramesh, the President of the Vignan Kendra, honored those who contributed in the construction of the building. Vishnuvardhan Raju, secretary of VBVK, said that Bheemidi Yashodamma and Pentareddy were the donors who donated 14 acres of land for the school. Out of those 14 acres, one acre has been allocated for homeless women named as “Vaidehi ashram”. He said that Aurobindo Pharma has donated one crore twenty lakh rupees to build a well equipped kitchen. 60000 sq.ft. is alloted to kindergarten. In the first phase, classes from nursery to seventh standard will be started. Vishnuvardhan Raju Garu said that everyone wants to enrol their children in Saraswathi Vidyapeeth if they want their children to educate with values.
Vidya bharati kshetra sanghatana manthri Sri Lingam Sudhakar Reddy said.. ‘When the program was planned, many people helped. This program was organized to introduce all of them to the assembly. All our schools are also built by donors. Mohanji Bhagwat also laid the foundation stone of Sri Vidyaranya International School, Bandlaguda Jagir. The school is running successfully since 2019. This is the second international school. This academic year, classes will be held up to seventh standard. We will increase each class every year and take it up to 10 + 2’’ he said.
Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Ramanuja Chinnajeeyar Swamiji recited Jai Srimannarayana. “Sa Vidya Ya Vimuktaye” Life is not a cakewalk. There are stones. There are thorns. Avoid them and move on. He said that how it comes is through education. Liberation does not mean sacrificing everything.. facing difficulties and moving forward. Swamiji said that it is possible only through education. We can get such education in Shishumandir schools, he then added.
“When Modi ascended the throne as the Prime Minister, the situation in the country was not very good. After Modi became the Prime Minister, India became a global guru. Everyone is proudly saying that I am an Indian and a Hindu,” said Swamiji. He said that he is not saying this for politics. But it needs to be said. Everyone want to feel that I am an Indian. Swamiji reminded that the mother tongue is not given such priority, value in Telangana compared to North India.
Indians should invite everyone. We have to go everywhere.. but we should not forget our roots and methods. Swamiji said that Sanatana Dharma should not be abandoned. Even a scorpion does not leave its nature until it dies. But why man forgets his nature is because of lack of proper leadership. He said that it should be not only in schools but also in everyone’s homes. Swamiji explained that Sri Rama said that standing on the side of dharma is the supreme dharma. In Dakshina Kshetra, if all Swamijis want to learn the first letter, that letter is called Ram. This Ram Akshara teaches us the essence of life.
That letter is called Rama.
After 500 years, Mohanji Bhagwat gave Ram Lalla his place. This indicates the right path for the country. Education is like a gun. Swamiji said that if it is used in the right way it can make India unique very soon.
Shri Mohanji Bhagawat ji said, “The inauguration of this international school is a work in our house. It is a part of Sangh Seva. Anyone who is interested can participate in it. Only Sangh members can do what others want. Today’s event was not done by anyone. It was successful because everyone worked hard. Everyone in the Sangh serves till their last breath. We all are like Rama. Rama’s way is practicable for us. Walk on that path. Sangh practices unity in diversity. We provide education thinking that everyone is the same even if they are different. Education is not only about subjects.. but also self-knowledge. The world is a mystery. Education is to know that secret. Education is neither good nor bad. It’s how you use it. I mean pride. Also self-esteem in another way. Education should be used for world welfare. If the soul is pure, education will be developed. Words without meaning are useless. Words with the same sentiments add meaning. In 1952, Vidya Bharati started in a small room. Today the same Vidya Bharati is moving forward with many Vidyalayas. Through language, dress, building, food, we flourish education. Even after starting an international school, we are inculcating a sense of patriotism in children through education. Our meals, bhajans, our traditions are reflected even in foreign countries. Rather than going abroad in the name of vacations, go for pilgrimages like our Ayodhya. We should give this culture to our children. Only then will it be useful for the welfare of the world. Education should give knowledge. Money should be given in charity. Strength should be given to the spirit of helping the powerless. We should sanctify our thoughts and make ourselves doers of duty.
Mohanji Bhagwat said it is untrue that Sangh does not support reservation. He reminded that whenever the people were told that reservation was necessary in the constitution, we have supported it ever since. As long as people need reservations, they will uphold reservations till then and the organization will do its job, he said. Mohanji Bhagwat concluded that you should also manage your work effectively.
