August 2006
USA - Canada
With
the objective of getting in-depth understanding of the Vachanamrut
and to implement its teachings into daily lives, the Kishore-Kishori
Summer Shibir 2006 was organized in each region across North
America in August 2006. The theme of the summer shibir was
Vachanamrut: His Word. Our Life.
Kishores
and Kishoris relatively new to the concepts in the Vachanamrut
attended classes which gave information on the times during
which the Vachanamrut was compiled and explained the basics
of Vachanamrut. The more experienced kishores and kishoris
learned about Bhagwan Swaminarayan's personality and how to
cross reference Vachanamruts. They also practiced different
techniques to easily explain the Vachanamrut to others.
Apart
from going through classes and activities, the kishores and
kishoris also attended evening programs where they learned
about moral values and spirituality through games and activities.
Successful professionals spoke on wide range of topics including
how spirituality helped them in their lives.
Saints
through relevant examples, were able to convey to the youths
how applying the principles of the Vachanamrut into one's
life can have an extremely positive effect. The participants
departed with a strong wish to do accordingly and please Param
Pujya Pramukh Swami Maharaj.
