“We make a living by what we get, but we
make a life by what we give.” Mother

On the
21st of May, more than 100 students from Lhomon Education, Jigme
Namgyel Engineering College and staff of Samdrup Jongkhar Initiative took part
in collecting pebbles at Rekhey community.
The volunteer
service started with the recitation of karma yoga prayer. The Karma Yoga is a
practice to apply the supreme methods for refining our intentions and
motivations to carry out any service selflessly for the greater benefit of all
sentient beings. The volunteer group was briefed to perform the task as
sincerely as possible with right mindset to accumulate merit and positive
energy. The volunteer service has been a very much part of LME students to inculcate
a sense of responsibility for the community and also to practice selflessness through
karma yoga. It is also to provide oppourtunity for students to take up leadership
role and to inspire other people that an individual can make a responsible
difference in our community.
It was
a tiring, yet satisfact
