But whether you’ve already been to India or not — there’s one thing we can guarantee — you’ve never experienced it like you will with Federation. Traveling with us, you’ll go beyond tourism to an India that will capture your heart. It may happen while joining locals for dinner or holding the hand of a woman who weaves pashminas. But when you meet the child in the slums looking at you with the future in his eyes, when you listen to the young woman who says ‘thank you’ for giving her a chance — you’ll know that these moments are imprinted on your heart and will be with you forever. $7,750 Per Person (Double Occupancy) $1,945 Single Supplement Day 1 Arrive and Get Acclimated Sunday, March 3 New Delhi is home to a history of various kingdoms and empires; it’s been captured, ransacked and rebuilt several times — a story we, as Jews, are all too familiar with.

That's because when water gets very cold, it freezes and turns into snow or ice -and the higher up a mountain, the colder it gets. The place where a mountain begins to be covered with snow is called its snowline. Sometimes on high mountains, a mass of snow will suddenly slip and begin to slide downhill. This is an avalanche The worst avalanche hurtle downwards like racing cars, at more than 160 km/h. The pressure of snow and ice can crack and break rocks, slowly wearing away the mountains. The most powerful mountain-movers are glaciers, these massive blocks of ice, snow and rock form high in the mountains and flow downhill like vast frozen rivers, carving out valleys. i. What is an avalanche? ii. How are valleys formed? iii. 'Downhill is a compound word. –The meaningful word formed by joining two meaningful words. Think and write three more compound words beginning with 'down' ______________ _____________ _______________ 2.

    www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 3 March 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 INTERFAITH UNDERSTANDING AND COMMUNAL HARMONY Saguna Puri Singh The term ‘Interfaith Dialogue refers to the positive, constructive and cooperative interaction between people of different religious faiths and spiritual or humanistic beliefs, at both the individual and institutional levels, with the aim of promoting understanding 1 between different religions to increase acceptance and tolerance. The Parliament of World Religions, held in September 1893,in Chicago USA ,is regarded as a turning point in modern interfaith movement .It brought together leading global voices in the emerging religious studies to promote interfaith understanding and communal harmony .Several global leaders including Swami Vivekananda , one of India s‘ foremost religious philosophers ,a proponent of the Vedanta philosophy in the West, propounded the message of Global harmony ,emphasizing on interfaith and interreligious understanding ,through collaboration between different religious leaders and communities. IJCRT2103040 International Journal of Creative Research Thoughts (IJCRT) www.ijcrt.org 296 www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 3 March 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 1 Interfaith dialogue, Wikipedia. The iconic speech of Swami Vivekananda2 had a profound impact on underlining Hinduism’s rich legacy of interfaith, understanding and communal harmony. Today at a time when polarization and fundamentalism has gripped various countries, Vivekananda’s approach for inclusivity to preaching universal tolerance offers a salve. He quoted few lines from hymn. “As the different streams having their sources in different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee” Similar is the case with religion.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Senior Theses by an authorized administrator of Lake Forest College Publications. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Sikhism Reinterpreted: The rC eation of Sikh Identity Abstract The iS kh identity has been misinterpreted and redefined amidst the contemporary political inclinations of elitist Sikh organizations and the British census, which caused the revival and alteration of Sikh history. This thesis serves as a historical timeline of Punjab’s religious transitions, first identifying Sikhism’s emergence and pluralism among Bhakti Hinduism and Chishti Sufism, then analyzing the effects of Sikhism’s conduct codes in favor of militancy following the human Guruship’s termination, and finally recognizing the identity-driven politics of colonialism that led to the partition of Punjabi land and identity in 1947. Contemporary practices of ritualism within Hinduism, Chishti Sufism, and Sikhism were also explored through research at the Golden Temple, Gurudwara Tapiana Sahib Bhagat Namdevji, and Haider Shaikh dargah, which were found to share identical features of Punjabi religious worship tradition that dated back to their origins.

Poor health is a chronic problem for street children. Half of all children in India are mal- nourished, but for street children the proportion is much higher. These children are not only underweight, but their growth has often been stunted; for example, it is very common to mistake a 12 year old for an 8 year old. 1 Street children live and work amidst trash, animals and open sewers. Not only are they exposed and susceptible to disease, they are also unlikely to be vaccinated or receive medical treatment. Only two in three Indian children have been vaccinated against TB, Diphtheria, Tetanus, Polio and Measles; only one in ten against Hepatitis B. Most street children have not been vaccinated at all. They usually cannot afford, and do not trust, doctors or medicines. If they receive any treatment at all it will often be harmful, as with kids whose parents place scalding metal on their bellies as a remedy for persistent stomach pain. Child laborers suffer from exhaustion, injury, exposure to dangerous chemicals, plus muscle and bone affl ictions. There is much ignorance about reproductive health and many girls suffer needlessly. A girl made infertile by an easily-preventable condition may become un-marriable and so doomed to a life of even greater insecurity ANNUAL REPORT 2018-19 and material hardship.
