Sangh Samachar 74 Sangh Shiksha Vargas of RSS across the country

IMAGINE THIS: It is so planned that a ten-day spoken Samskrit shibiram begins in some part or the other of a city everyday. This is to go on all the 365 days of the year. What would happen? In the first 10 days, 10 shibirams would have begun at the rate of a shibiram each day. On the 10th day, the city would witness the beginning of a shibiram somewhere and a shibiram coming to a close somewhere else. This phenomenon would be repeated daily for the rest of the year. That would tot up to 365 shibirams for the city in that year. But the city of Chennai had 439 shibirams in a year in this fashion. The year was between February 24, 2006 and February 25, 2007. Does the year not ring a few bells in us? Yes. It is the birth-centenary year of Shri Guruji, the second Sarsanghachalak of RSS. Samskrita Bharati chose to name it ?Shibira Varsham?Year of Shibirams?. The sprightly teams of Samskrita Bharati workers of all the 10 Nagar units of Samskrita Bharati in Chennai hit upon the idea of a garland of shibirams as a tribute to Shri Guruji. The team chalked out a plan of adding a shibiram a day all along the year. They called it Shibiramala. Thus, over 3,800 Chennaiites benefited by these 439 shibirams conducted by 150 Shikshaks. At the impressive Shibirmala valedictory function on February 25, 2007 in Nanganallur a middle-class suburb of Chennai, Shri K. Suryanarayana Rao, the all India president of Samskrita Bharati, called upon one and all to take up Samskrita Prachar work because it ennobles one.  (VSK, Chennai)
