Continued from part - (8).....
After this session, we then had to proceed to the courtyard of Patanjali Training Hall and sing a few Desh-bhakti geet together lead by a few trained Karyakartas of Vkendra everyday in the morning. At 8.30 am we had another session of physical works (Shram Samskar) divided amongst the six ganas alternatively everyday on day to day basis and that session was known as SHRAM SAMSKAR. All the participants from each ganas (Group) had to undertake some cleaning works like brooming the campus areas, boarding hall, training hall etc. Those session was very good and interesting one. We could experience how a team work enhances ones energy and capabilities of doing any work together with ease and the feelings of oneness amongst all the ganas. Our next session was from 9.45 am everyday where a few senior Karyakartas of the Vkendra used to deliver lectures on different topics on different subjects, namely Philosophy, History, Religion, Practical Vedanta etc.
