Namaste,
We meet this Sunday Nov 12th after a gap of two weeks. This will be our regular class. Our Deepavali Celebrations were grand! Boys in dashing kurtas and girls in their shimmery outfits. By performing Lakshmi Pooja we mark Deepavali celebrations in all our homes, however watching the little hands perform their own simple pooja with their pure hearts is a stirring image. This experience is to invoke a feeling of - " Our Bhagwan is a friend, approachable and a forever presence ". We hope they will always lean on to the guiding power. Thank you to Seetha, Sunita, Sumerta, Uma, Heena, Asha, Priyanka and Shashi for helping us set up the pooja in temple hall.

We all got together and celebrated Balvihar Diwali beautifully! Our Art Team led by Shweta and assisted by Shalini, Uma, Purvi, Dipika, Shanti, Deepti, Seetha, Jaideep, Sridhar and Lalitha and all of our parent volunteers on the day of the celebrations who helped the students create stunning Diwali wreaths for our kids to take home. You might have seen the pictures on the HTS Balvihar Facebook page! Thank you Vivekji for taking so many great pictures! We are working on Teacher's Diwali wreath during the holidays!

Heartfelt Dhanyawaad to the Central Cuisine Team : Jog Family, Vyas Family, Bal Family, Karandiker Family, Kshirsagar Family, Kaneria Family who were motivated and enthusiastic to get our Deepavali Celebrations lunch possible. Their organized efforts made the experience easy going for all of us. Khaman Dhokla, Vada and Jalebi were delicious. A very kind Krutagnyata for Das family who shared a box of sweets for all the Balvihar families. We are so blessed to have shining examples of Seva Bhaav within our HTS Balvihar. You all put together are creating the early, strong, happy memories for our children.

Anugrahitosmi to Pareshji and Sumedhaji for filling Ganga and Krishna rooms with squeals of laughter and games. It was a rainy day and they got the adrenaline going along with brain games on the side. "Jai Jai Gita, Bhagwad Gita" and "Jai Mahadev" instead of ready set go does make a difference!
