Mangaluru, Jun 28: The formal closing function of a 45-day yogasana class, by Devika Yoga Classes, conducted by Devika Purushottam, held at Shri Subrahmanya Sabha, Mangaluru, was celebrated with great enthusiasm and insightful discourse. The event featured two distinguished guests, Prof Vrishabharaj Jain (M Phil) and Dr Smitha S Rao (MS, DNB, FMAS, MCh).
Prof Vrishabharaj Jain, a retired HOD of physics and vice principal of SVS college Bantwal, is renowned for his extensive contributions as an academician, experienced counsellor, and distinguished trainer in various fields including HRD, pranic healing, global skills, career guidance, and NLP. His presence added immense value to the function.
Dr Smitha S Rao, the first lady endocrine and breast surgeon in Dakshina Kannada district, delivered a compelling talk on breast cancer and thyroid cancer. She elucidated the stages of cancer with clarity, raising crucial awareness among the attendees.
Prof Vrishabharaj Jain spoke on the significance of yoga in controlling the mind and fostering discipline. His insights resonated deeply with the participants, highlighting the holistic benefits of yogasana practice.
The event was seamlessly organized by the participants of the yoga classes, showcasing their dedication and the discipline instilled through their yogasana practice over the past 45 days.
The function marked a successful conclusion to the classes, leaving participants inspired and well-informed.
After conducting a 45-day long yogasana class at Shri Subrahmanya Sabha, Mangaluru, which was offered for free, the participants, in their gratitude, collectively contributed. I have decided to redirect this money towards a greater cause.
The money will be donated to Shri Subrahmanya Sabha, which has recently built an old age home in Puttur. This small contribution is intended to support their efforts.
The remaining amount will be donated to five blind individuals in Mangaluru who earn their livelihood by singing in public. Since the rainy season has made it difficult for them to perform outside the temple, we have decided to use this money to purchase groceries for them, which will last for at least two months.
