  • Thoughtfulness @ My Good School
    My Good School Show Season 9, Episode 13

    As we express gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them. Thinking about others and ourselves is vital; thinking twice before an important decision and letting others know you are always there is Thoughtfulness. Join Anvesha and Simar as they explore Thoughtfulness and dive into this beautiful conversation where Rishona expresses her take on being thoughtful.
    Anvesha Rana and Simar Kaur - Hosts from Gyanshree School
    Rishona Chopra- Guest from Gyanshree School
    Anvesha: We welcome you to My Good School Show Season 9, Episode 13, where passion meets education. I am Anvesha
    Simar: I am Simar, and we will be your hosts for the event. We have Rishona here with us today to share her take on Thoughtfulness.
    Anvesha: To be mindful about our activities and compassionate and empathetic about others is our Thoughtfulness.
    Simar: Yes indeed, now let us invite Rishona here. Rishona, what are some instances where you have been thoughtful?
    Rishona: Thoughtfulness is when a thought comes to you to care for someone. Just simply that thought creates Understanding. An instance where I can remember being thoughtful is when one of the students fell during a race at a school. I noticed no one was helping her and was too busy winning the race. At first, I didn't see it either. I thought the students around her would help, but when no one did, I went up and helped her stand up. But although I helped her up, I didn't wait any minute longer and just ran to continue the race, which I think is selfish. Deep inside, I, too, was concerned about winning the race. I need to improve this in myself, overcome my desire for selfishness, and learn to be selfless. Thoughtfulness should not come to show someone that you have done something but should come from the heart.
    Simar: Thank you, Rishona; you are indeed one of the most thoughtful people we have met, and being considerate is indeed the moment's need.
    Anvesha:   With that, we come to the end of our podcast. Comment below and let us know if you liked our podcast. If you want to be a part of similar podcasts, join us. We hope to meet you again soon when we return with a podcast on Tolerance next month. That's all for us today.

  • Simplicity @ My Good School
    My Good School Show Season 9 Episode 12

    There is Beauty in Simplicity, there is beauty in the most small things and there is beauty in the darkness of life.

    To let go of our extravagance, hypocrisy and abstraction is the key to Simplicity. Learn to live simply, talk humbly and be grounded.

    Join Anvesha and Simar as they explore Simplicity and dive into this wonderful conversation where Reveda expresses her take on being responsible.

    Anvesha Rana and Simar Kaur - Hosts from Gyanshree School
    Reveda Bhatt - Guest from The Aryan School

    Simar: The art of art, the glory of expression, and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.

    Anvesha : With that we welcome you to My Good School Show Season 9 Episode 12 where passion meets education. I am Anvesha

    Simar: And I am Simar and we will be your hosts for the event. We have Reveda here with us today to share her take on Simplicity

    Anvesha : Those who live life with deep understanding, live life with Simplicity. It lies inside all of us, unshaken, untouched under all the extravagance that we live in, we often forget the lifeline, Simplicity. Reveda, what does simplicity mean to you and why should others live by it ?

    Reveda: Simplicity is the idea of being down to earth even after having ample materialistic things like money and fame, both of which some people use as keys to the "Door of Domination." What it means to me is to keep your wings closed to stay on the ground even when you can fly above the clouds, flattering them all the way through.

    Simar: Thank you Reveda, Simplicity is indeed very vital for our lives.

    Anvesha: With that, we come to the end of our podcast. Comment below and let us know if you liked our podcast. If you want to be a part of similar podcasts, join us. We hope to meet you soon again when we are back with a podcast on Thoughtfulness next month. That’s all for us today.

Talks about #author #lifecoaching #personalbrand #communicationskills #emotionalintelligence



    The Great Tribal Warriors of Bharat

    Rupa Publications India

    Authors: Tuhin A. Sinha  & Ambalika B



    ‘In our 75th year of Independence… we needed quality literature about our great tribal freedom fighters. This book is a genuinely commendable start in that direction. —Arjun Munda, Minister of Tribal Affairs



    The meticulous lines drawn out from the intricately woven Indian history narrate a tale of courage and patriotism, courteous and courageous fighters astounded the invaders with defiance for crumbling in pain their fragile and ancient machinery might lay down on the battlefield. Still, the spirit of freedom ignited further after losing. Indians unified is a resilient symbol of Pure Indian Strength; our most significant asset lies in our people.      



    Our impregnable freedom is a culmination of the endeavours of numerous freedom fighters; the depths of oppression create such heights of character.



    Our Independence was not a birthright. It was fought for with life and death by these tribal communities.  



    Our first war of Independence was not in 1857.



    Tribal mutinies against the British began at least 75 years before the 1857 revolution.



    These battles were fought with traditional bows and arrows and spears and predated the reported political movement that came to the fore in the latter part of the nineteenth century. As we complete 75 years of Independence, it is only fair to acknowledge that a parallel freedom movement existed in our far-flung villages and jungles, away from the mainstream freedom movement recognised in the books of history. The Great Tribal Warriors of Bharat is a humble attempt to honour these largely unsung heroes of an epochal movement whose contribution remains largely unacknowledged.



    The book begins with Tilka Manjhi, who unleashed guerilla warfare to combat the British and includes Jaipal Singh Munda, one of the most nuanced speakers of our Constituent Assembly, tracking the trajectory of this movement. These brave warriors came from all parts of India, including the Northeast and the South, and all tribes in the country. The book is a rare collection and a journey into self-discovery for our civilization-turned nation. If you want to be a part of similar podcasts, join us.

  • हमारी हरी घास की छप्पर वाली झोपड़ी और बौना पहाड़ की यात्रा।
    Vani: "ॐ नमः शिवाय गुरुवे सच्चिदानन्द मुर्तये निस्प्रपञ्चाय शान्ताय निरालम्बया तेजसे"। अर्थ - गुरु सभी का आत्म है, सत्य, ज्ञान और आनंद का अवतार है। जो संसार से परे, शान्त, स्वतंत्र और दीप्तिमान हैं, उन्हें नमस्कार है।

    Yashraj : माय गुड स्कूल में एक साल वास्तव में तेजी से बीत गया है जो हमारे हिंदी सत्र का भी अंत करता है। इस सत्र का हिस्सा बनकर हमें बहुत खुशी हुई, इसलिए मैं यशराज।

    Vani: और मैं वाणी ।

    Yashraj:  हिंदी के सत्रों की यात्रा के बारे में इस पॉडकास्ट की मेजबानी करने के लिए यहां हैं। लेकिन, क्या आपको नहीं लगता कि इस पॉडकास्ट को और अधिक रोचक बनाने के लिए हमें अपने कुछ और जॉली इंटर्न की आवश्यकता होगी?

    Vani: सच में, इसलिए मैं अपने दोस्तों और इंटर्न- रिशोना, शांभवी, आरफा,और संदीप सर को आमंत्रित करती हूं।

    Yashraj: रिशोना, शांभवी और आरफा, कृपया हमारे साथ हिंदी सत्र के अपने विचार और अनुभव साझा करें।

    Rishona: हां, मैं इस बात से पूरी तरह सहमत हूं कि हमारी हरी घास की छप्पर वाली झोपड़ी और बौना पहाड़ की यात्रा वास्तव में कुछ और थी! तोत्तो-चान और स्वामी से अंग्रेजी सत्र में, मैंने बहुत कुछ सीखा है, मुझे लगता है कि बोलू, स्वामी और तोत्तो-चान सबसे अच्छे दोस्त हैं। यह इत्तेफाक ही है कि हम तीनों दोस्तों की कहानियां पढ़ते हैं। जैसा कि हम अध्याय या बल्कि रोमांच से गुजरे तो यह बहुत ताज़ा महसूस हुआ।

    Shambhavi: इस सत्र में हरी घास की चप्पल वाली झोपड़ी और बौना पहाड़ जैसी अदभुत किताब पढ़ना, असल में एक बहुत नए अनुभव के जैसा था जिसने हमे एक नया नज़रिया दीया। इस किताब ने हमें एक और बहुत ही अच्छे दोस्तों के समाहार से परिचित करवाया।

    Arfa: हमारी हरी घास की छप्पर वाली झोपड़ी और बौना पहाढ़ को पड़ने में अलग ही मज़ा था।कल्पना की इस बनावट में एक ताज़गी और नयापन है।उपन्यास में बच्चों के सपनों की दुनिया जैसी खूबसूरत चीजें हैं। भाषा की चमक के साथ-साथ भाषा का संगीत भी कहानी को आकर्षक बनाता है। भाषा की आन्तरिक रचना आख्यान के साथ-साथ वर्तमान के बोध को सजीव करती है।

    Vani: धन्यवाद रिशोना, शांभवी और आरफा ,आपसे यह सुनकर बहुत अच्छा लगा। अब में हमारे गुरूजी संदीप सर को दो शब्द कहने के लिए आमंत्रित करना चाहूंगा। Yashraj: हमेशा हमारे प्रेरणा स्त्रोत बनने के लिए और हमारा मनोबल ऊँचा  रखने के लिए धन्यवाद सर ! अब, हमारे लिए कुछ शब्द कहने के लिए जुगजीव सर को आमंत्रित करते हैं। वह एक अंग्रेजी शिक्षक हैं जिन्होंने उत्साहपूर्वक हिंदी सत्रों में भाग लिया है। मैं महोदय से अनुरोध करूंगा कि आप जिन कुछ यादगार हिंदी सत्रों में शामिल हुए हैं, उनके अपने अनुभव कृपया साझा करें।

    Vani: आपकी ये बातें निश्चय ही सत्य हैं। तुम्हारे बारे में क्या, यशराज? एक सक्रिय हिंदी JOL इंटर्न होने के नाते और हर सत्र में भाग लेने का आपका सफर कैसा रहा?

    Yashraj: मैंने अंग्रेजी की तो बहुत सी किताबें बचपन से पढ़ी हैं, लेकिन हिंदी की किताबों श को बहुत ज्यादा नहीं पढ़ा था। परंतु पिछले 1 साल में माय गुड स्कूल के माध्यम से मैंने हिंदी की कहानियां भी पढ़नी शुरू की, जिससे मेरी रुचि हिंदी की किताबों में भी बढ़ गई है। और साथ ही साथ मेरी हिंदी शब्दावली में भी सुधार हुआ है। अब मुझे हिंदी भी रोचक लगने लगी है।हमने जो यह उपन्यास हरे घास की छप्पर वाली झोपड़ी और बोना पहाड़ पढ़ा है,उससे मुझे बहुत से लोक भाषा के शब्दों का भी ज्ञान हुआ है। साथ ही साथ हमने समय-समय पर उपन्यास पर आधारित प्रश्नावली आयोजित की जिससे हमारा हिंदी पठन और रोचक और ज्ञानवर्धक हुआ।आपका क्या कहना है वाणी?

    Vani: हिंदी सत्रों का हिस्सा बनना मेरे लिए हमेशा बहुत खुशी की बात रही है। और इस अद्भुत किताब को पढ़ना- हरे गैस की छप्पर वाली झोपड़ी और बोना पहाड़, निश्चित रूप से मुझे अपने बचपन में वापस ले जाता है और मेरी प्यारी यादों से जुड़ता है। जब मैं किताब के पन्ने पढ़ती थी तो अपने आप एक किरदार में बदल जाती था। मेरी पसंदीदा कूना थी- एक प्यारी लेकिन मजबूत छोटी लड़की।हिंदी सत्र ने अन्यथा मेरे हिंदी पढ़ने के कौशल और हिंदी में मेरी रुचि में भी सुधार किया है। Yashraj: इसके साथ ही हम अपने पॉडकास्ट के अंत में आ गए हैं। नीचे कमेंट करें और हमें बताएं कि क्या आपको हमारा पॉडकास्ट पसंद आया। आज हमारे तरफ से बस इतना ही। ट्यूनिंग के लिए धन्यवाद।

    Author of the book Vinod Kumar Shukla.
