Description
We run a school in Rajasthan for children of poor families in an area of high unemployment and poor infrastructure. Children are the hope of tomorrow! The school, named Shree Vishwa Deep Gurukul Maheshwaranand Ashram Vidyalaya, is nestled in the village of Jadan in Rajasthan, North India. It is registered with the Government of Rajasthan.
It is a private school and provides education based on the government syllabus with a parallel syllabus teaching basics of traditional yoga and spiritual principles according to the System of Yoga in Daily Life (www.yogaindailylife.org).
Excellent quality of staff and comparatively small class sizes ensure that students receive the best possible tuition. The school fee for girls is free, as it is for many children whose families cannot afford it. This is made possible by funds received from international donors.

As part of the Jadan Health Program started in 2009, the children of the Jadan school are taught ways to maintain good health. Whether learning about dental hygiene or healthy vegetarian nutrition, the pupils and teachers take part with a lot of joy! For some children, it is the first time to hold a toothbrush in their hands.

In the summer of 2002 a dream came true: 153 children were admitted to primary school led by five teachers. Children who may never have had a chance otherwise. Donations to Gyan Putra provided for a school building, furniture and a new school bus to transport the children safely between home and school: "the most beautiful bus in all Rajasthan" in the children's own words. These photos capture the poignant first days of the school. In 2017, 15 years on, the bus is in need of urgent repairs, costing €15,000. We still need to raise €5,000 for repairs to proceed.

Today on India's 68th Republic Day we wish all our children, every girl and every boy, a happy, healthy, successful life. Bless you! "Fragrant is the sacred earth of this land Each village is a place of austerity and sacrifice Each girl is the reflection of the Divine Mother Each boy is Lord Ram Each body is a temple Each man is a fountain of goodness Where lions become pets Where cows are worshipped as Mother Where morning plays the conch for worship Where evening sings lullabies Each girl is the reflection of the Divine Mother Every boy is Lord Ram Where soldiers of this Holy Land Sung the sacred Geeta upon the ancient battlefield Where a righteous King ploughs a field unearthing the Divine infant, Sita Where ideals and truth have made this land the abode of Gods Each girl is the reflection of the Divine Mother Each boy is Lord Ram Where through Karma you can change your destiny Where Shakti like a beautiful woman bestows happiness and good fortune Where the Holy Sages pass on the Eternal Wisdom through timeless verse Where wisdom flows like the Ganges water pure and bewitching Each girl is the reflection of the Divine Mother Each boy is Lord Ram"

Kiel, December 2016 Dear Members, Dear School Sponsors, Dear Friends of the Association, At the end of the year, we would like to report about the school. At the moment 658 pupils attend the school: 285 girls and 400 boys. 33 new pupils were admitted to the Gyan Putra scheme. All in all, the scheme provides for 170 girls and 80 boys this school year. The Gyan Putra project especially supports girls and poor boys from large families. This means that they do not need to pay school fees. In the school year 2016/2017 around 20,000 € are needed for the Gyan Putra project, 15,000 € for repairing the buses. 83 students, 43 female and 40 male, are taught in the college. Three new subjects were applied for: political science, philosophy and social science. Around 8,000 € are needed for their implementation. Maintenance works are continuing. The renovation of the Swastika (hostel) is almost completed. At the moment, a septic tank and a sewage system are needed for the hostel kitchen to prevent the pollution of the rain water which is collected in the Talab. In order to complete this work, the people in charge in Jadan estimated an amount of 20,000 €. All works are necessary for the preservation of the building. Only then high quality lessons can be guaranteed. We contribute to enabling a better future for pupils, especially girls, and help to realise Vishwaguruji’s vision. 5,000 € are still missing for the overall amount. It would be very nice if we could all support our school project once more. In the name of committee of the association, I wish all of you a Merry and Blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year. Elke Deppert (Diwali), Chairwoman of the Association.
