Attachment: Essence of love
What is attachment? It is an emotional bond shared. It is the feeling of care and affection toward things we like the most. It can be anything that makes us happy and fulfilled. We can say that attachment brings the quality of truthfulness, trustworthiness, and a feeling of gratitude towards others. Each one of us is attached to something or someone that helps us feel comfortable, healthier, and secure.
In the current situation, we see students getting hurt easily because of things happening around them. In this case, children need to get attached to something that will make them happy and give them a feeling of friendliness. A student is eager to find happiness everywhere.
When in school, a child gets attached to the school boundaries. Yes... School boundaries act as a home for each child studying there. Have you ever felt like that? Just imagine when a child enters school on the very first day and when a child completes schooling on the last day. Both days have something in common - TEARS. But there is something more common. On the first day, they feel separated from what they were attached to. i.e their parents. Similarly, on the last day, they feel the same but, this time; it is mainly the school boundaries and all the fun behind that boundary.
It is good to be attached to our school and its environment as it will stay with us for a longer time. No matter if we can visit our heaven again, the memories created will stay forever and ever. Just a blink of eyes and everything will flashback with a much wider smile on our faces. Keep Smiling..!!

"BEING GOOD"
WHEN BEING SELFISH IS MORE REWARDING.....
Why to be good? In a world where greed, corruption and dishonesty dominate, what will we gain by being good? Why must we do good to others, when being selfish is a whole lot easier?
These questions are immensely important, especially in the time we live in. So if anyone ever desires to know the answer here is a powerful explanation that will not disappoint. The answer comes from Swami Vivekananda, one of the greatest teachers of 20th century and a sage who had realised his own inner self. With each of us lies the divine soul whom we call the almighty. The source of all goodness whose presence is always veiled and blurred by our ego, greed and self-obsession, which form a hard shell around us.
The goal of our life is to break the outer shell and explore the infinite qualities we have within us. Consciously or unconsciously we forget the thin line between good and evil. But, we as human beings are blessed with our conscience which allows us to realise and differentiate between right and wrong and which is morally acceptable.
"Unselfishness is more paying, only people have not the patience to practice it."
-Swami Vivekananda
Practice of these moral virtues and following up the righteous path is a slow process and requires patience. This repeated acts of kindness, goodness and selflessness ultimately built up the habits in us. Which at last breaks the shell of narrow mentality and impurities within us. Doing good to others disciplines our mind and heart.
Thus, the reward of goodness reflects in our personality and shapes our future. Being good may not necessarily results in material gains, but it does lead to a permanent enlightenment. Selfishness, on the other hand may result in immediate benefits temporarily. But, on the contrary it causes us to move away from the light and leads us towards everlasting darkness.

Shri Rata Mahaveeraji Jain Temple, Rajasthan
27th feb’23: The Fabindia School organized an adventurous trip for the students of class II & III . Students visited ‘Shri Rata Mahaveeraji Jain Temple’ located in Bijapur, Rajasthan. This place encompasses green hills, the holy shrine of cool, clean and non-polluting environment. The temple is adorned with foliage and devotional figures. Teachers introduced the students to the art and culture of Rajasthan. It was not just a tour; it was an experience of the spirituality inside the temple. As teachers, our aim was to take the students in an open environment and make them familiar with the different shades of the historical Art & architecture. The temple is carved out of marble. Idol of Shri Mahaveer Bhagwan is made of bricks, sand and calcium, having bloodish red colour (rata) and hence also called as Rata Mahaveerji, about 135 cm in height, the idol is in padmasana position. This was a very enthusiastic trip for us maintaining proper discipline & care mostly by Rajeshree ma’am, Kavita ma’am, Richa and Khushi ma’am. Jafar sir and I were for the overall care. As it was the very first trip for me I was very excited to have a look mostly at the architecture. As an Art learner, I always have a little easy access to art and esthetics and it mesmerized me about the enrichments of Indian culture. India has plenty forms of creations that describe the core of our mythology and stories like Kalpasutra, Pragyaparamita, Shib Jataka and many others tales including Ramayana and Mahabharata. There are 24 tirthankaras in Jainism. They don’t believe in God but believe in rebirth of tirthankars who are the spiritual teachers who show the right path for the people. On the wall of the Jain temple, you can see those tales depicting the different state of Mahaveer and many interactions with others.

मेरा प्रिय त्योहार
मेरा प्रिय त्योहार होली है। होली मार्च के महीने में आती है। इस दिन नए- नए कपड़े पहनते हैं। होली के त्योहार पर तरह-तरह के पकवान बनते हैं। इस दिन हम पिचकारी से रंग डालते हैं गुब्बारे में रंग भर कर एक -दूसरे के ऊपर डालते हैं। लोग एक दूसरे से गले मिलते हैं। होली खुशियों का त्योहार है।
