Details of Projects/Activities

Dart Game

Dart Game with Balloons: - In this activity balloons are considered as ignorance and students are supposed to write the habits they want to eliminate from their life on the balloons. When a student bursts that balloon, Knowledge comes out in form of Maharishi quotes. The learning was hitting the dart is considered as the action taken to remove the ignorance by gaining the inside knowledge.

Solve the knowledge Puzzles

To start this activity we take 5 students in one group and there can be multiple number of groups created and each group is provided with set of words related to Maharishi’s quote to frame exact Maharishi’s quote in complete. The learning behind the activity is teamwork and enhancement of communication skills as well as brain storming.

Human Knot Team Building Activity

Starting in a circle, participants connect hands with two others people in the group to form the human knot. As a team they must then try to unravel the “human knot” by untangling themselves without breaking the chain of hands.

1. Get the group to form a circle. 2. Tell them to put their right hand up in the air, and then grab the hand of someone across the circle from them. 3. Then repeat this with the left hand, ensuring they grab a different person’s hand. 4. Check to make sure that everyone is holding the hands of two different people and they are not holding hands with someone either side of them. 5. That they must now try to untangle themselves to form a circle without breaking the chain of hands. Allocate a specific time to complete this challenge (generally ten to fifteen minutes) 6. Get participants to take their time in order to limit injuries. Ask the group not to tug or pull on each other and spot participants as they pass over other participants. Monitor throughout the challenge and stop them if you need to. 7. If the chain of hands is broken at any point, they must then start over again.

The Learning outcome behind this activity as the life entangles itself, it can be resolved by having calm and stable mind, and this state of awareness can be easily achieved by diving inward to the level of consciousness by practice of Transcendental Meditation which further leads to better Cooperation, Leadership and Time Management.

Each student (individually or in groups of 2-3 students) will undertake a project where they will be working in the external environment (like village community, MSMEs, NGOs, civil authorities etc.) on identified issues. They will work under the guidance of an assigned faculty member and will be assessed on the basis of how they are able to effectively understand their relationship with the external environment. Students will have to prepare the schedule of interaction with the identified external contacts and execute the assigned task keeping in mind the intended learning outcomes. They will maintain a project diary/ register as per following format and this will be scrutinized by the faculty guide weekly/ fortnightly as decided.

Details of Projects/Activities

Effective Listening Activity

Communication Game Balloon Activity listening skills Before the start of the activity (These instructions will be given)  The students will be given the flat balloons to blow up and tie the knot.  They will be instructed to protect their own balloon  The Instructor will give them only 1 min to save their balloons  Whosoever remains last with their balloons safe and intact he/she will win the activity

Learning from this game During the activity of 1 min usually students tend to burst the balloons of others to protect their own. They were only instructed to save their balloon but due to passive listening instead they start bursting balloons of team mates and create mess. The goal is not to burst any balloons of your fellow participants but just keep standing still with their own balloon and by this whole class can be the winner. Knowledge: This activity teaches to be a mindful listener because if everybody listen carefully and imbibe this knowledge in themselves they can be relieved from any suffering in near future. Another learning from this activity based class: When life becomes hard and uncertain, then listen to the voice of your inner consciousness to boost resilience and build persistence.

Human Tic-Tac-Toe

 Line three rows of three chairs like a tic tac toe board.  Divide the group into two teams of nine students on each side, one is noughts and the other is crosses  Give them each numbers starting at one and so on, so that each team has one of each number.  Have a team on each side of the chairs.  Have someone or yourself call out a number.  The two people with that number race to the chairs and take a seat. It is a race between the each member of each team to get a seat and make their X or O first.  Whichever one gets there first gets to stay  Keep calling numbers until a team lines up three people from their team in a row.

Learning: God has bestowed upon everyone enormous opportunities to grow and evolve. It is our responsibility to recognize them, grab them and then act on them sensibly. Keep that in mind to avoid missing opportunity’s knock. So go ahead, grab the opportunity, step up to the challenges, hurdles and obstacles and add more meaning and value to life.

Protect the Self In this activity 4 individual will participate and there can be multiple groups like this  2 person will be defender  1 person will be attacker  1 person will be protectee

How to begin this activity? The two defenders and the protectee hold hands of each other and the attacker from outside has to touch the protectee to win the game, simultaneously defenders defends him for about 2 minutes so that they can win the game.

Learning There are no winners and losers in the game. The real teaching of this activity is that the protectee is your “Self” and the defenders are considered to be meditation and good habits in your life and attacker is nothing but the problems encountered. The problems can only be eliminated by making your defense system vigorous and powerful by regular practice of meditation, concurrently when your defense is not strong problems can travel to the nerves.

Video testimonials: Students have to give video testimonials of their learning and what they like in this subject along with suggestions so that we can inculcate those feasible ideas in our teaching methodology Video shall be of minimum 2 minutes.

Each student (individually or in groups of 2-3 students) will undertake a project where they will be working in the external environment (like village community, MSMEs, NGOs, civil authorities etc.) on identified issues.
