Manav Rachna Welcomes 2018 With Maha Mritunjaya Yajna
Manav Rachna welcomes the New Year with the Maha Mrityunjaya Yajna to pray for peace, prosperity and success
The Maha Mrityunjaya Yajna is an integral part of Manav Rachna’s legacy and tradition. To honour this tradition of seeking divine blessings, Manav Rachna Educational Institutions began the New Year on an auspicious note with the Purnahuti which was the final culmination of the Maha Mrityunjaya Yajna. It was a sight to behold when the entire Manav Rachna fraternity braved the cold of the wintry morning to pray for the peace, prosperity and success of all members of the MREI family.
The Maha Mrityunjaya Yajna –organized every year from December 26 to January 1—is an augury of peace and positivity among one and all at MREI. This year too, the Maha Mrityunjaya Yajna infused the same sense of piety.
The Yajna began with the Havan by the Management, VCs, Executive Directors, Heads of Institutions, Principals and Directors. Mr. Atul Dwivedi, (IAS) Deputy Commissioner, Faridabad along with his wife graced the occasion as the Chief Guest and took part in the Yajna to welcome the New Year with Manav Rachna family.
The auspicious occasion was the perfect platform for all associates to foster a sense of oneness as they bonded with one another along with their families over Havan and Bhandara.
As many as 91 members of the Manav Rachna family were awarded in recognition of their 10 years of committed and continuous service. What further enhanced the sense of sublimity were the soul-stirring bhajan renditions by Siddharth Mohan who mesmerized the audience with his mellifluous voice.
Thanking all the members of Manav Rachna for their commitment and support, Ms. Satya Bhalla, Chief Patron, Manav Rachna Educational Institutions (MREI) said, “We hope the unity and oneness which is prevalent in the Manav Rachna family will go a long way in actualizing the mission and vision of Founder Visionary Dr O.P. Bhalla.” While talking about the significance of ‘havan’, Ms Satya Bhalla explained that such a ceremony “purifies both the soul and environment paving the way for a future that is bound to be fruitful and positive.”
Appreciating the strong commitment of Manav Rachna towards social causes; Mr. Atul Dwivedi said, “In the coming year, I look forward to working closely with Manav Rachna to further strengthen its work in the areas of corporate social responsibility. Let us collaboratively make the resolution to bring a difference in the lives and the less privileged and the marginalized”.
Jointly wishing everyone for the New Year, Dr. Prashant Bhalla, President, MREI, and Dr. Amit Bhalla, Vice President, MREI said: “The dimension and definition of education are both changing but all of us at Manav Rachna are well-equipped to handle this change. Let this new year be a collaborative, happy and a healthy year for everyone”.
