Stories by Members

Spinning a story around Nature is fun.We have two of our members spinning their story in Nature.

Life around  Amruthaballi Climber 

As the sun's sweltering rays reached the Earth and the warm air blew, there began the first summer morning. The leaves of the Climber were lush green and were glittering in the rays. Soon, the buzzing sound of honey bees was heard. The bees ate parts of the leaves and sucked nectar from the flowers and satisfied their hunger. This was a mini eco system formed.

Many people said that its leaves contained a medicinal value, which can treat illness!

Coconut Tree near my House
The tree which grew near my house was very healthy. But now the coconut tree is not getting water and sunlight.
First, some ants started moving on it and started living in the tree. Then, suddenly one day three boys were passing by the tree and saw some birds living in it. They wanted to disturb the birds.
One day ,a boy named Raj broke their eggs on the floor. Adithya made a hole in the tree and some ants died .Then Harshith plucked leaves and threw it in the wind.
That moment a girl who was Adithya's best friend came towards them, and that girl was "ME" .  Adithya and his friends got scared to see me .They thought that I will scold and complain to their parents.
Seeing them I got very furious and started making them understand how trees are important for our ecosystem, and they should not trouble the poor birds. If they want to play with birds they should not kill the tree.
After realizing their mistake, they decided to come with me to my garden. We decided to grow a new plant in my garden and played for sometime.
As time passed, the tree grew old and we took some pictures with the tree. We cherish these pictures.
This incident is my best memory of childhood days.

Mandala Art

Mandala

According to the Wikipedia, mandala (Sanskrit: मण्डल, maṇḍala; literally "circle") is a spiritual symbol, representing the universe. In common use, "mandala" has become a generic term for any diagram, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically; a microcosm of the universe.
Mandalas often exhibit radial balance.
The term appears in the Rigveda as the name of the sections of the work, and Vedic rituals use Mandalas such as the Navagraha mandala to this day. Mandalas are also used in Buddhism.

Mandala art session was planned for the students to become more observant.This helps them become mindful about the patterns in Nature and slows down the pace of routine life,even if it is for few minutes.We earnestly hope students can practice these when they are free,when they go outdoors.

 Few students have shown great interest as exhibited in their works :
