Sanskaar International School had the privilege of hosting Swami Chidrupanand Ji, a disciple of Pujya Swami Chinmayananda Ji, on 30th and 31st July 2026. The program began with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp by Swami Ji and Ms. Amrita Agrawal, Principal, Sanskaar International School. Head Boy Surya Sonkar introduced Swami Ji, and the school choir presented a soulful welcome song. In keeping with the values our school follows, Swami Ji conducted separate sessions for students and teachers on both days. For Students: - Goal Setting - Swami Ji explained that goals by conviction are far superior to goals by compulsion or comparison. He defined the "Goal of Life" as: "As long as I live, I work in the field of..." He emphasized that great personalities never retire from their purpose, and their life remains a constant inspiration. - Potential to Performance - He taught that transforming knowledge into action is true excellence. Performance is a penance to bring out our hidden potential. "Efficiency is our birthright. We are born to excel. Success, name and fame are only by-products." For Teachers: - Mind Management - Quoting the Bhagavad Gita, Swami Ji spoke on controlling the restless mind through practice and detachment. He explained that an integrated mind, where intellect and mind work together, makes any work successful. - Teachers' Attitude - He defined a TEACHER as one who: *T*hinks *E*mpathetically and *A*wakens *C*hildren to *H*asten and *E*volve through *R*enaissance. He also shared 4 steps to improve attitude: Love, Awareness, Keeping the motive pure, and Prayer & Meditation. The sessions left both students and teachers deeply inspired. Their faces reflected the light of Swami Ji's teachings. The program concluded with a vote of thanks by the Principal, who also invited Swami Ji for future sessions.
