The first lecture in the Saint Chavara Endowment lecture series was delivered by Prof. P.J. Narayanan, Director, IIIT,
Hyderabad on “Capturing the 3D world, and Thoughts for Future Technology World” on February 10, 2015. The Saint Chavara Endowment Lecture is an annual event organized in honor of the noble commitment of Saint Chavara to education of masses that paved the way for the literacy drive in Kerala. The series will feature scholastic lectures by persons of excellence in all walks of human endeavor.
Rev. Dr Antony Kariyil CMI, Director welcomed the gathering. Rev. Dr George Thanchan CMI, Secretary for
Evangelization & Pastoral Ministry, CMI Congregation, made a presentation on “Saint Chavara – The Visionary”. St. Chavara believed that all human beings are children of the same almighty God. He envisaged a society sans discrepancies on the basis of caste, creed and religion which prompted him to initiate many social and educational reforms such as opening a Sanskrit school and subsequently starting more schools attached to each monastery and church, introduction of noon meal program in schools, initiating self-help groups to make the people self-sustainable, setting up a printing press etc. This secular, reformative and developmental legacy of St. Chavara is continued by the CMI congregation founded by him.
Prof. P.J Narayanan spoke about the latest trends and advances in capturing objects in the 3D format and the technology
behind it. He also talked about 3D printing and its scope. He concluded his session by saying
that at IIIT, they aim at instilling three Cs in their students - competence, creativity and caring. He also reiterated the fact that the aim of the institute is not to equip the students for their first job, but their last, as they have to adapt to a lifestyle of constant change in today’s world.
Dr. Joseph I. Injodey, Principal, RCSS, presented “Rajagiri a testimony to the Chavara vision”. Dr. Injodey
spoke on how the CMI congregation is strictly following the visionary approach of St. Chavara in all their endeavours. He elaborated on how from a small school of social work in a small hillock at Kalamassery, the Rajagiri institutions branched out and flourished into a coveted brand in the field of education.
Principal, Dr A. Unnikrishnan introduced Prof P.J. Narayanan; and Vice Principal & Dean, Dr John M.
George proposed the vote of thanks.
