The color, symbolizes the sun, the eternal source of energy. It spreads warmth, optimism, enlightenment. It is the liturgical color of deity Saraswati - the goddess of knowledge.
The shape, neither a perfect circle nor a perfect square, gives freedom from any fixed pattern of thoughts just like the mind and creativity of a child. It reflects eternal whole, infinity, unity, integrity & harmony.
The ' child' within, reflects our child centric philosophy; the universal expression to evolve and expand but keeping a child’s interests and wellbeing at the central place.
The name, "Maa Sharda;" is a mother with divinity, simplicity, purity, enlightenment and healing touch, accommodating all her children indifferently. This venture itself is an offering to her........
Lessons From Little Ones – 7
Part of series of articles published in IMAX (monthly journal of IMA Rajkot) based on real life incidents-2016
(As adults, we are always eager to teach children but often the little ones give us beautiful lessons in unexpected ways……Sharing here a series of such incidents mostly with my own children and few from other kids as well. They have created long lasting imprints on my memory.)
A tight hug!!
Recently I was just lucky to grab an opportunity to meet my two best school friends with whom I have studied from nursery to 12th. I was meeting one of them after a long gap of 10 years. We planned a dinner with kids. After a lot of chit chats about school days and food, it was again time to separate.
As we departed, a little daughter of one of my friends asked her mom “Mama how close friends are you all?” “As close as you, Twisha and Riya are” replied her mother trying to explain the special decades old bond we cherished. “We used to sit together in class, have snacks together and shared all our secrets, but as we have settled down in different cities after school, we are meeting after a long gap.” I gave a more elaborate explanation.
“Oh you are so close friends, then why didn’t you give a tight hug to each other when you met or separated?” asked the little one.
We all were surprised at her observation and her understanding that the degree of closeness should be expressed by the tightness of hug. “We are so close that we don’t need any hug to express ourselves” this was just the answer I could find after a momentary silence.
Kids are keen observers and they have their own logical ways of expression!!
