  • Infosys Foundation Report 2015-16
    Till the change is for real Infosys Foundation Report 2015-16 Till the change is for real What is it like when a boy living on a railway platform sees the inside of a classroom for the first time? Or when a remote village that has lived all its life without electricity discovers solar power? What does it mean for a fishing community devastated by cyclone when it gets a chance to rebuild its life and livelihood? How does collective empathy give birth to the world’s largest midday meal program? What inspires scores of young, successful professionals to take a break from their careers to teach underprivileged children? Each question above holds the key to a story – a story of positive change, affecting the lives of individuals and communities. We at the Infosys Foundation started our journey twenty long years ago, and since then, we have come across many extraordinary stories and experiences along the way which have reinforced our faith in compassion and humanity. In the pages that follow, we bring you some of the stories that we have collected over the last year. We are grateful to be a tiny part of these stories – to be able to serve as catalysts in the larger social transformation. Today, we stand here to pledge ourselves anew to our commitment – we will continue marching on our chosen path till we are sure that the change we want to see is for real.

  • Prayer Bhavan's Faith
    PRAYER May Brahman protect us May he guide us May he give us strength and right understanding May love and harmony be with us all Om..... Shanti.... Shanti.... Shanti.... BHAVAN’S FAITH Let me once set forth the Bhavan‟s faith for the benefit of new students and members, for it is necessary that they understand it clearly and imbibe its spirit. The Bhavan stands for the reintegration of Indian Culture. In a world falling to piece under the impact of an amoral technologies avalanche, it tries to hold fast the fundamental values for which our culture stands Rita, Satya, Yagna, and Tapas. Faith in god who informs Cosmic Order; Truth which is accord between mind, word and deed; Dedication which offers all movements of life as an offering to God; Sublimation which purifies the body and mind and transmutes instincts, passion and emotions into things of beauty. This, regardless of forms and doctrines, is Dharma, the three- fold aspects of which are SATYAM, SHIVAM, and SUNDARAM- Truth, Love and Beauty. For these values our forefathers lived and died. So did Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Swami Dayanda, Gandhiji and Sri Aurobindo, among the moderns. These values are embedded in our national outlook. We command the respect of the world because of them. We can look forward to the future to the future with confidence only because they have the vitality which gives the power to vindicate their validity even in this fear-and –avarice-ridden age of our. We, the Bhavan‟s family, whether it is the smaller one or the large one, must make every effort in restoring an awareness of these values in personal and collective life.
