After the inauguration ceremony, there was a class by Brahmanayakam Mhadevan sir on the topic “Puthiya Lokham Puthiya Kaazhcha”.
I don’t have words to say about the class. From worrying about how to spend three hours, I was able to spend about four and an half hours without any boredom. He managed to engage us very actively without boring ua even for a second. Through this class, we 53 students got to know each other deeply. That was the first session of Chiranthana.
