"global citizen"

भाग : 7

यह किन्नौर डिस्ट्रिक्ट का कोई चेक पोस्ट था। चाइना बॉर्डर के करीब होने के कारण यह पूरा एरिया सेंसिटिव माना जाता रहा है। बस तब रिकोंगपिओ से आते हुए इधर से ही गुजर रही थी। और फिर बस ड्राइवर ने अचानक बस को किनारे लगाया और बोलता हुआ नीचे उतर गया कि बाहरी लोग परमिट चेक करवा लें। बाहरी से उसका मतलब विदेशी लोगों से था। कुछ देर के बाद मैं बस के गेट के पास आया ही था कि एक आर्मी वर्दी वाले आये और उन्होंने मुझसे आईडी दिखाने को कहा। मैंने जवाब में तुरंत कहा "sir, I am an Indian"

उन्होंने मुझे देखा। शायद मेरे बड़े बालों को ज्यादा। फिर बोले "you are an Indian?"
मैं समझ गया था। मैंने अपना आधार कार्ड उनके सामने कर दिया और बोला, "I am a global citizen."
वे कुछ बोले बगैर मुस्कुरा कर बस के अंदर घुस गए और मैं बाहर चला आया।

"Nature is the mother of all Education"

Dear Friend Long before modern education and schooling came, there used to be Gurukul. Kings, as well as common men, used to go to the jungle to learn. There was a balance in learning which came from nature plus a teacher. Time passed and big books were written. Our "Environment" became a topic of study and got into the curriculum. But the problems which civilization brought along with it, they remained. We were not stepping into nature. What was happening was conceptual understanding at the level of the brain within the walls of classrooms, libraries, and educational institutions. New generations didn't really step into nature to know about it. But this will take a different direction from now onwards. When the team of "The Girl" started teaching kids, we wanted to make a little progress by our little efforts. Eventually, we came to know that kids have to rebuild their foundation. Despite having lived amidst trees and birds and a river, the...

"Living in the jungle, man learns how to be civil"

In the local dialect of our village, a word called “थुथुर” is commonly used to refer to a person who repeats mistakes even after being told not to do so. This word has originated from the name of a plant. In the forest, there is a plant which grows own it own without any care. It is about four feet high, thin-looking and found in a cluster. Because it is of no specific importance, it is oftentimes cut but wherever it is thrown, there it starts regrowing. It is called “थुथुर” plant and “थुथुर” are those people who refuse to change their behaviours and ignore the advice around them. In the forest, there are several plants and trees whose name is used to household references. This shows how much the rural people are attached to their natural resources. And because of this faith-based attachment, these people have their own beliefs when it comes to taking care of the environment. Take the case of bathing in the river. It is considered that when you bath in the river, your misd...

... it is more important to bring boys into the kitchen...

The concept of a picnic is prevalent in rural areas. What happens is that the kids and young people gather and go to the forest to have a community gathering over food whether it be the Mango season or Amla ripening season. Elder members of the family are also present there but the responsibility of cooking is unto the younger folks. During this picnic time, ladies become a mentor. Mango and amla chutney is made whe n the season of these fruits is in full force. Recently when the team of @thegirl_film was talking to kids, they got excited about the upcoming New Year's Eve. Together we decided that lunch will happen in the jungle and while cooking, we'll make sure to use maximum resources from nature itself. Groups were divided and in each group, there were 5-7 kids. Girls and boys separately cooked at different locations. It was left on them to figure out what to cook and how to manage the process. On 1 January, everyone began their work. Our team went to the ...
