Key Views Shared in the Open Forum:

  • Fr. Rocky Pinto suggested that going meatless once every month, not just once a year, would greatly benefit health.

  • Ms. Manisha applauded the initiative and quoted Mother Teresa: “If you want to make a big difference, start with small things…”
  • Ms. Neelam stressed the point to introduce the concept at the primary level itself to nurture awareness from a tender age.
  • Ms. Haridevi movingly shared that animals too feel deep pain when their young ones are harmed, just as humans do.

The rendezvous ended on a note of hope and commitment, with the principals expressing eagerness to carry forward the message of SAK to their teachers, students, and school communities. The Sadhu Vaswani Mission looks forward to stronger collaboration with these institutions in building a more compassionate world.
