In Himachal- Sep-Oct 2011

At the Deer Park Institute a conference was organized recently by collaboration with -SIDH to discuss issues regarding Indian Perspectives on Education- organized by the Deer Park Institute, Himachal Pradesh and SIDH. In this historical conference there were discussions about the traditional views of education with representatives from Mahayana Buddhism, Jains, HIndus- Chinmaya Mission, J Krishnamurty's school, Gandhiji's Nai taleem and scores of others from numerous places around the world-
It was a great experience and synergies seem to be emerging on all sides.

How Hansadhwani was born and grows

This is the building-blog of Hansadhwani Foundation, where you get to look at the scenes behind the curtains: where we sit together to build the Foundation. Here you see how we slowly labour towards building a dream for the world we live in by using the performing and visual arts to contribute towards life and sensibilites by expanding the scope of the mind. Naturally we engage ourselves in issues of health and education.

But that is not all, we do wish to seriously engage in seemingly uncorrelated issues too- which are actually perfectly linked in the wiring of some of us- the issue of accountability in education and nutrition in health.

We are the change-makers of our times and THAT idea whose time has now come.

You are welcome to be a part of hansadhwani if you see a part of your own madness being reflected with something that we do; because most sane people will anyways worry about their own immediate survival issues only. Explore that- strengthen us and contribute meaningfully to the world we live in.
