A beautiful morning resonating with spiritual fervour was organised on 22nd January’24 in the Ekam Hall. Students and staff members recited the Sunderkand in uniformity and rhythm to celebrate the Pran Prathistha of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya and to bring home to the children the message of Lord Hanuman-When a soul is on a good mission, God gives it strength to overcome all the obstacles. All the GIS students and staff enchanted and displayed utmost sincerity and reverence in their recitation of the Sunderkand, which is a treasure of human values and principles.

Pran Pratishtha, a sacred ritual in Hinduism, marks the consecration and invocation of divine energy into idols or deities. In Gateway International School, the celebration of Pran Pratishtha took place as a spiritually enriching event that combines religious fervor with educational significance. The school community gathered with reverence and anticipation . Students, teachers, and staff join hands in a collective effort to imbue the idol with spiritual energy through Vedic chants, prayers, and rituals. Our Principal Sir played a pivotal role in guiding students through the significance of Pran Pratishtha, explaining the cultural and religious aspects of the ceremony. This educational component adds depth to the celebration, offering students a profound understanding of the traditions and customs associated with the ritual.

The event served as an educational platform as well, with teachers guiding students through the significance of Sunderkand, its relevance in Hindu mythology, and the moral lessons it imparts. This combination of spirituality and education creates a holistic learning experience for the school community. As the ceremony concluded, the school resonated with a sense of spiritual fulfilment and also provided the students with a unique opportunity to connect with the spiritual heritage of their culture, fostering a holistic approach to education that extends beyond the academic realm.
