CORRESPONDENT’S MESSAGE
AUM AMRITESWARYAI NAMAH
I am glad to know that we have come out with an e-paper publication for
our campus. My sincere prayers will be that this periodical will join all
hearts at our Bangalore Amrita campus together in a spirit of devotion,
fraternity and commitment towards achieving our common objectives.
As Amma says, once we acquire worldly knowledge, unless we put into
practice the translation of this knowledge in to action, it will be as sugar
candy which is kept in a showcase. I wish this distinct venture of ours a
great success.
With Love and Prayers,
Dhanraj
Om Namah Sivaya
