Just One: Shiva Ji Mission School 15 July

7/15/2017

 
Picture
As the Just One team walk into the Shiva Ji Mission School on this 15th July, we are joyously and raucously greeted by the students playing in the yard during their play time. Today there are more children in attendance than the previous week, but there are still only about 250 students in total. Many of the older children won't return to school until later as they must perform their duties with their families during the summer months.
 
Today we are serving a full, hearty cooked meal to the children. Just One are offering a dish of mixed vegetables in a delicious curry along with poori (fried flat bread) and kheer (a sweet milk and rice based dessert containing raisins and nuts).

​Once the food is prepared we begin serving the youngest children first. These young children are mostly new arrivals at the school. Some of them are still inseparable from their older siblings. Some hang on to their siblings while we are serving as some security in this strange new world they have entered far from the familiar security of their parents. And at the same time we have the honour to see and experience with all our senses the energy of youth in all its beauty, vulnerability and innocence. All this is present in these youngest students.
 
We continue to serve meals in each classroom and to each student until every belly is full. Once all the students are fed the teachers are served by the students as well, completing the lesson in service. Each program offered at the Shiva Ji Mission School is not just an opportunity for good solid nutrition, but also to learn about service, receive care and attention and be immersed in the Shakti of an enlightened master, Sai Maa.
