Guidance to 2013-14 S.S.C Batch

We had memorable interaction with 2013-2014 batch 10th class students on last Saturday 20th April 2013. We have spent around 2 hours with them testing their preparation for the 1st month. 

We are happy that they have answered the questions that we have selected for an oral test. We are very happy with the sincerity and commitment in their preparation. We are thrilled when we are asking them questions from their textbooks, especially when we are seeing the Telugu poems and its meanings it just recalled our school days :) 

Thanks a lot to Rasool, Santu, Sastry and also Mr & Mrs Venkat who has crosschecked students preparation and suggested valuable tips for them. It was a super start for the followup which we planned for 2013-2014 10th class batch. As they will have summer holidays in the may month, we told them that they should prepare for next test which we will conduct at the end of June.

Generally we use to serve them with some snacks but this time they have served us fruit salad and sameya, we were very happy for their love while serving.

T. Narsing for whom we sponsored Inter 1st year education, has got very good results. I have attached his marks sheet to share the happiness with you people who have been with us from last four years. We celebrated his success by sponsoring food for them on Sunday :).

Independence Day Celebrations at Chavadi

We had a great time in ‘The Chavadi Child Welfare Society’ on 15 Aug. We spent around 5 hours with the students conducting Essay Writing (Topic: My Pledge to the Nation), Elocution (Topic: The Constitution of India), Singing (Topic: Patriotic Songs), Drawing / Painting (Topic: A National Leader / Freedom Fighter) and Quiz (Topic: Current Affairs) competitions.


We also discussed on their 1st Unit Test results. We are thankful to all the volunteers who supported our needs without which we would not be able to perform this at a grand level. The children has shown exceptional public speaking skills and their knowledge in current affairs in the quiz competition is appreciable. Not sure how many of us would be able to answer them correct! Also, it is evident from their First Unit Test results that they are improving in academics gradually and completing their school education in flying colors.

We are always thankful to each and every one of you, who have been with us in all the activities we are conducting through VSS. We request your continuous support for the long run of these activities.

“The miracle is not that we do this work but that we are happy to do it...” - Mother Teresa

A King and his 4 Wives...

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confident and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times.

The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered, "I now have four wives with me, but when I die, I'll be all alone."

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I have loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No way!", replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No! ", replied the 3rd wife. "Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to remarry!" His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, "I have always turned to you for help and you've always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?" "I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!", replied the 2nd wife. "At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave." Her answer struck him like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: "I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go." The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was very skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect. Greatly grieved, the King said, "I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!"

In truth, we all have the 4 wives in our lives: Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go. Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us that will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

Lord Buddha's Advice to Calm a Disturbed Mind...

Once Buddha was walking from one town to another town with a few of his followers.. This was in the initial days. While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake. They stopped there and Buddha told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. Do get me some water from that lake there."


The disciple walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy, very turbid. The disciple thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink!"

So he came back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink." After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The disciple obediently went back to the lake.

This time too he found that the lake was muddy. He returned and informed Buddha about the same. After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back. The disciple reached the lake to find the lake absolutely clean and clear with pure water in it. The mud had settled down and the water above it looked fit to be had. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha.

Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the disciple and said," See what you did to make the water clean. You let it be.... and the mud settled down on its own - and you got clear water. Your mind is also like that! When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time. It will settle down on its own. You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down. It will happen. It is effortless.

Wisdom

It always pleased the Master to hear people recognize their ignorance.

"Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one's awareness of one's ignorance," he claimed.


When asked for an explanation, he said, "When you come to see you are not as wise today as you thought you were yesterday, you are wiser today.''

11 Benefits of Being Positive

Thus Spake the GOD...

Celebration
"What would spirituality give me?" said an alcoholic to the God.

"Spirit-free intoxication." was the answer.

Greatness
"How can I be a great man-like you?"

"Why be a great man?" said the God,
"Being a man is a great enough achievement."

The Lord is alwalys on the side of Right

A friend once tried to console Lincoln in his many problems by saying: " I hope the Lord is on our side."

Lincoln replied emphatically that this was not his hope! " I am not at all concerned about that, for we know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord's side."

Can I Borrow $25?

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'

DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.

SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the man said angrily.

SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'

SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.

SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $25?'

The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard every day for such childish frivolities. '


The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.


The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?


After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down , and started to think:


Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $25.00 and he really didn't ask for money very often The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.


'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.


'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.


'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the man. 'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $25 you asked for.'


The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.


The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.


The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.


'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the father grumbled.


'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.


'Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.'


The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.


It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $50 worth of your time with someone you love.


If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of hours. But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.

For Young Parents...

I dreamed I stood in a studio

And watched two sculptors there

The clay they used was a young Childs mind


And fashioned it with care
One was a teacher - the tools she used
Were books music and art
The other, a parent, worked with a guiding band

And a gentle loving heart
Day after day, the teacher toiled with a touch
That was deft and sure
While the parent stood alongside
And polished an' smoothed it o'er
And when their task was done
They were proud of what they had wrought


For the things they had moulded into the child
Could neither be sold nor bought
And each agreed that they would have failed
If each had worked alone
For behind the parent stood the school
And behind the teacher the home.

The Face of God...

A newspaper photographer was sent to Ecuador in 1987 to cover the earthquake that devastated much of the country. In midst of such catastrophic suffering, he witnessed a scene of compassion that moved him so deeply that he wrote a story about it.

Here is his account: " The line was long but moving briskly and in that line, at the very end, was a young girl about twelve years of age. She waited patiently as all those up front of that long line received a little rice, some canned food and a little fruit. Slowly but surely, she was getting closer to the front of the line, closer to the food that was being distributed.

The young girl did not notice the growing despair on the faces of those distributing the food. The food was running out. Instead, the young girl's attention seemed to be riveted on three younger children who were standing at a distance, across the street."

At long last she stepped forward to get her share of the food. All that was left was a solitary banana.

Quitely she took the precious gift and smiled her gratitude.
Then she ran across the street to the three younger children. She peeled the banana very carefully and divided it into three equal parts.She placed one part of the food into the hands of each famished child.

Then she sat down and with a smile, licked the inside of the banana peel."

"At that moment", the photographer concluded, "I swear I saw the face of GOD!"

The Star Thrower...

In his book, "The Star Thrower", Loren E.Eisley talks of the day when he was walking on the beach sands where hundreds of starfish had been washed up on the shore.

He noticed a little boy picking up the starfish one by one and throwing them back into the ocean. He observed the boy for a few minutes, accosted him and asked what he was upto.

The boy replied that he was returning the starfish to the sea, otherwise, they would die.

Eisley was both touched and amused. He asked the boy; how saving a few when so many were doomed would make any difference whatsoever?

The boy picked up a starfish and as he threw it back, said… "It's going to make a lot of difference to this one!"

Eisley left the beach and went home to continue writing only to discover that he could not type a single word. He returned to the beach and spent the rest of the day helping the little boy throw starfish into the sea.

"Our world has been profoundly influenced by the thoughts, beliefs and actions of all its past and present habitants. History is created not only by those whose names are revered and celebrated, but also by the infamous and unknown. All those who live, carve out in some special way their very own niche."

Successful or Useful?

When asked what he wished to become, as a young man, Nobel Laureate Albert Einstein was reported to have said, "I want to become a useful person, not a successful person."

Asked what he meant by it, the eminent physicist replied, "A successful person is one who takes from society more than what he gives it. A useful person is one who gives the society more than what he takes from it."

Abraham Lincoln's Letter to the Teacher of his Son

He will have to learn I know, that all men are not just, all men are not true. But teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero, that for every selfish politician, there is a dedicated leader. Teach him that for every enemy, there is a friend.

It will take him time I know. But teach him if you can, that a dollar earned is of far more value than five pounds. Teach him to learn to lose. And also to enjoy winning.

Steer him away from envy, if you can, teach him the secret of quiet laughter. Let him learn easily that the bullies are the easiest to lick.

Teach him if you can, the wonder of books. But also give him quiet time to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and owers on a green hillside.

In school, teach him it is far more honourable to fail than to cheat. Teach him to have faith in his own ideas, even if everyone tells him they are wrong. Teach him to be gentle with gentle people, and tough with the tough.

Try to give my son the strength, not to follow the crowd, when everyone is getting on the band wagon.

Teach him to listen to all men. But teach him also to filter all he hears on a screen of truth, and take only the good that comes through.

Teach him if you can how to laugh, when he is sad. Teach him there is no shame is tears.

Teach him to scoff at cynics and to beware of too much sweetness.

Teach him to sell his brawn and brain to the highest bidders, but never to put a price tag on his heart and soul.

Teach him to close his ears to a howling mob, and to stand and fight if he thinks he is right.

Treat him gently, but do not cuddle him, because only the test of fire makes fine steel.

Let him have the courage to be impatient. Let him have the patience to be brave.

Teach him always to have sublime faith in himself because then he will always have sublime faith in mankind.

This is a big order but see what you can do.

He is such a nice fellow, my son!

By Abraham Lincoln

The Law of the Garbage Truck

How often do we let other people's temper affect our mood? Do we let a terrible driver, or a rude comment ruin our day?

The mark of a spiritual aspirant is how quickly we can regain our focus on what is important. One man learnt this experience while in the back of a New York City cab. Here's what happened.

He was travelling in a taxi, on his way to Grand Central Station. All of a sudden, without warning, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of them. The taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded and missed the other car's back end by inches.

Then, the driver in the other car, who nearly caused a huge accident, whipped his head around and started abusing the taxi driver.

But the taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. The startled passenger said, "Why did you take it so easy? The guy almost caused your car to crash and sends us to hospital!" The taxi driver laughed and then related what he called, "The Law of The Garbage Truck."

"Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of rubbish, filled with frustration, bursting with anger, and packed with disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it. And if you let them, they'll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump it all on you, don't take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You'll be glad you did. I assure you.”

The passenger started thinking how regularly he let garbage trucks run right over him? And how frequently he took his own garbage and spread it onto other people, at work, at home, or on the streets? It was that day he promised to himself, "I'm not going to do it anymore."

Over time he learnt how to distinguish when a "Garbage Truck" was coming to dump all over him. He noticed the junk they were carrying and prepared himself to avoid it all being unloaded onto him. Like the taxi driver, he did not make it a personal thing; he just smiled, waved, wished them well, and moved on.

“Be always saturated with Love. Do not use harsh words against anyone, for words wound more fatally even than arrows. Speak softly and sweetly. Sympathise with suffering with an unshaken faith.”

....Adapted from "Let the Garbage go by..." By David J. Pollay
