Excerpts from Man. Nivedita Didi’s speech:- Amrit Parivar denotes eternity and immortality. It was that binding and deep-rooted foundation we have been standing upon which no invaders could extinguish us. Our rich family ethos is the testament of culture and tradition. Didi covered the followings:
• Transitions from community to family
• Family plays an important role in nurturing the child.
• Family is a social unit, social organisation and social institution
• Value system, rituals and culture only can bind the families and it plays a vital role in the improvement of a child.
• Society plays an important role. In the present era, values are degrading to some extent and we should strive for preserving it through imparting family values.
• Amrit Parivar is a programme to uphold the family ideals through culture and parents should take active role in fulfilling it.
• VKV Students are well established in every nook and corner in various coveted positions due to the teaching and values imparted at school and family.
• We have to overcome anger in family system as it leads to frustration.
• Healthy atmosphere and environment for the children at home.
• Teach mother language, heritage and culture
• If family values are imparted to the students then it will be not only beneficial to the students but also to society and state too.
• Explained CMS Model: care, moulding & suggestive model for upbringing families.
• Concept of 6 Bha’s: Bhasa, Bhusan, Bhojan, Bhajan, Bhraman and Bhavan for an ideal family.
• We should pledge for “Amrit Pariwar” i.e. we should start from the grass root level (house) and then only we can transform the society.
The event was concluded by vote of thanks followed by shanti mantra.
