We cannot draw a circle without a center point. The Lord is the center, source and essence of our lives. Recognizing Him as the focal point in our lives, we go about doing our daily chores. This is the significance of pradakshina.
Also every point on the circumference of a circle is equidistant from the center. This means that wherever or whoever we may be, we are equally close to the Lord. His grace flows towards us without partiality.

My dear, dear new year
You come to us every year
And bring both smile and tear
We wish all a happy new year
People long for peace and prosperity
Eager eyes long to end poverty
Inequality and injustice breed enmity
Progress and peace promote fraternity
Leaders and officials assure eradication
Of terrorism, crime and corruption
Enforce measures to control pollution
Spread awareness and education
On that eve all have recreation
Lights and crackers add to celebration
Next day the same old practice in action
All we need is a revolution
Problems swell year after year
Hike in price multiplies fear
Unwanted disease and danger so near
Yet we wish a happy new year.

With lot of pride and joy in our hearts, we would like to share with you all, our experience at 55th Athletics Meet of the School Games Federation of India [SGFI] held from 23 – 27th November at Amritsar, Punjab. We were ecstatic to be among 86 students of Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas that took part in the Meet. There was a stiff competition among the athletes grouped under 27 teams that came from the nooks and corners of the country.
Having secured First positions in our respective events - J. Narasimha [Class XII] - Discus Throw, and S. Ramesh [Class IX] 100 mtrs and Long Jump – at the Cluster, Regional and National levels, we pulled off an opportunity to participate in the biggest school game event of the country and secured eighth and seventh positions respectively. Nevertheless, we were least disappointed for, we had put our best performance and the meet had illustrated clearly the meaning of competition.
This feat wouldn’t have been a possibility without the guidance of our Physical Education Teachers Sri. G. Surendra Reddy and Smt. Manjula Radha. We are also grateful to our Principal, Sri. Laxmi Rajam garu for his constant support and encouragement.

well or you are ill. If you are well there is nothing to worry about, if you are ill there are only two things to worry about, will you get well or will you die. If you get well there is nothing to worry about, if you die there are only two things to worry about, whether you go to heaven or you go to hell. If you go to heaven there is nothing to worry about, if you go to hell you will be busy shaking hands with your old friends and have no time to worry about worry.

November 11, the birth anniversary of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad is popularly celebrated throughout the country as the National Literacy Day. A small function was organized on the Vidyalaya campus to pay homage to Abul Kalam, the first Education Minister of Independent India. In their speeches the students threw light upon the life and achievements of Abul Kalam and the teachers enlightened about the importance of Literacy in man’s life, the place of India in the world literacy standings and the role of youth in making India an educational superpower. Abul Kalam, who was a renowned scholar, poet, freedom fighter, and a staunch Gandhian, always felt that the condition of the Indian society can not be uplifted without education. He was a strong propagator of Indian nationalism and Hindu-Muslim unity. He was a strong opponent of partition and supported a confederation of autonomous provinces with their own constitutions but common defence and economy. Partition hurt him greatly and shattered his dream of a unified nation where Hindus and Muslims can co-exist and prosper together. For his invaluable contribution to the nation, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad was posthumously awarded India's highest civilian honour, Bharat Ratna in 1992.
Let us tread the noble path shown by Abul Kalam and spread the message of literacy everywhere.
