Hello Friends, We are planning to visit Bapu Ghat, Langar House on 11th of October, Saturday from 2 pm to 5 pm. So far, seven of us confirmed.
1. Dr. Vasant Bawa 2. Purnachandar Rao 3. Suresh Adina 4. Prasanthi 5. Sriram Rahi 6. Fayaz Basha 7. Sivanand Parupalli Expectation: There is not much of an expectation from this visit. If you follow the recent mails, you would have noticed that members of BosF forum visited Wardha and some of us visited Pinakini Ashram in Pallepadu. There has been a very good effort to develop Bapu Ghat in Langarhouse like Sevagram in Wardha and also to establish a communication channel between the people who follow Gandhi ideals. Many eminent people discussed and opined that Gandhi's thoughts are applicable even in this twenty first century. They are interested to put them in practise and prove the fact to the World and there by bring a much needed transformation in the way we live. Simply put, to campaign for - Simple Living, High Thinking at individual level, Decentralization of Power and Empowering Villages at political/administration level. Ideas: Dr. Vasant Bawa is interested to revive the Ghat and he has so many ideas to keep it vibrant and lively all the time with the activities Gandhiji wished in his life time. Some of them are: 1. A Photo Exhibition on Gandhi's Life 2. A garden 3. Watershed (Rain Water Harvesting) 4. Teaching livelihood skills to women 5. Regular Bhajans 6. Giving the meeting halls for sessions organized by social work groups If anyone of you are interested, please be there in the Bapu Ghat by 2 pm. I am planning to visit Premalayam and give any article that is required by them. Rs. 16000 given by Kumar Reddy are still with us and we have to spend anything b/n Rs. 10000 to Rs. 12000 for Premalayam. This should not go for food distribution but buying something useful and longstanding. Thank you. with regards, Prasanthi.
