| Shakotsav (Festival of Vegetables), 11 August 2000 Today, the Shibir's theme focussed on 'Aharshuddhi'- purity of diet ie. vegetarianism. The agenda of speeches and blessings enlightened and consolidated this important theme in the kishores. The festival was crowned with servings of khichadi that was blessed by Swamishri. The kishores dined with Swamishri. |
