This month newsletter brings you the concept of an eight-fold platform for deep ecology and its implications for society and environmental protection. This is an excerpt from eco-philosopher Eric Katz's article titled, 'Deep Ecology: Faith, God and Nature' . He expresses wonderfully thus: " Because I identify with the rest of the natural world, I care for the rest of creation. I expand myself outward to include an interest in the value and flourishing of the entire natural environment.

No bird soars too high, if it soars with its own wings.”These words of the famous poet William Blake remind us the need of organised efforts to achieve the desired results.

The whole month witnessed a series of organised efforts to plan, re- visit the goals set with the guidance of Kendra Elders, taking stock of the activities conducted so far, analysing the exam results of Class X & XII and finalising the activities for the 150th Birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda.

Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny and now the time comes, when we will redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially.  At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom.  A moment comes, which comes but rarely in the history when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed finds utterance.  We end today a period of ill fortune and India discovers herself again.
