Chinmaya Balavihar Residential Summer Camp: Summer Camp 2018 - Day 7

What seemed impossible first for some minds became inseparable and inevitable through the instinct from intellect.

Now the BMI - Body, Mind and Intellect - is in complete harmony with Nature, hence our children’s heart did not want to depart from this spiritual atmosphere and that’s how the ‘D’ day of Balavihar camp started!

Children learnt to chant Nayarana Sooktam by now and thanks to Swami Aparajitanandaji for his best efforts to teach in a weeks time.

Valedictory started at 11:15am with Nayarana Sooktam, Sri Deenabandhu Ashtakam & the Camp Song with emotions.
Children the power house of innovation and creativity have put together a cultural performance per team in the name of lord Krishna. Here are the teams and the allotted stories.

Skit performance started with full josh and was a wonderful show indeed with just couple of hours of practise. Refer Skit Performance by camp children for more details.
In between the Skit performance, Shankara Bhola Bhala & Ananta roopa ananta nama Bhajans were sung to add more energy to the vibrant children.

Shankara Bhola Bhala by Priya

Krishna, Krishna Bhajan was also taught by Swamiji, later he had viva voice to the children on the spiritual lectures he had delivered in the past 6 days and to our amazement children answer very well.

Our loving appreciation to the the budding poet Sharanya Rao for her beautiful poem with rhythm and rich vocabulary on Krishna & the Twin Trees and to the Govinda Team for their beautiful song on Kaliya Mardana, in-line with Camp Song.

Most of the group activities during the camp was team-wise (Govinda, Gopala, Achyuta, Mukunda, Keshava, Madhava and Murari).
The winners and runner-up are Govinda & Madhava respectively, who were awarded by Swamiji with books depicting stories from our puranas in a pictorial format.

With Vote of Thanks from Rashmi, we left the Omkareshwara Temple with heavy heart.
