देवान्भावयतानेन ते देवा भावयन्तु व: |
परस्परं भावयन्त: श्रेय: परमवाप्स्यथ || 11||
(Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 3, Verse 11)
devān bhāvayatānena te devā bhāvayantu vaḥ
parasparaṁ bhāvayantaḥ śhreyaḥ param avāpsyatha
By this (Yajna) you nourish the gods and the gods will nourish you; thus by nourishing one another you shall attain the Supreme goal (i.e. liberation).
In practical terms liberation becomes a total experience of life in which the right mental attitude and knowledge are necessary. This fact is outlined by the concept of sacrifice known as atmarpana (‘offering to Atma’). Primary purpose of Yajna has to create harmony. This harmony refers mainly to issues of nature and the place of human beings within the environment, but also to the harmony within the human body itself.
The lighting of the Yajna Agni which is very strenuous with the churning of the special instrument made from a Banyan twigs/logs, chanting Agni Suktham, is considered extremely auspicious. This instrument which is used to ignite the Yajna fire is known as ARANI.

This programme is divided in three different sections - Select, Support and Empower. Selection of students for this empowerment programme shall be based on rigorous screening process due to its significance. Emancipation of students from all restraints which lay hurdle in their empowerment process is the fundamental aim of this programme. This is aimed to strengthen the whole student population in the campus devoid of department or subject relevance. To overcome the practical difficulty to implement the programme on the entire student clan, this programme has developed a system to impart the training to selected few from each department so that these children could be the torchbearers for the rest of the students.
Excessive exposure to the social media and its impact on youth is a critical issue which adversely affects the creative talents of them which in turn makes them addicted with the social media instead of exploring their own innate skills. It’s imperative to provide them an ample platform to express their potential and empower the youth to extend their wings beyond horizon.
ARANI will enhance the selected Advanced Learners from different departments through different orientation programmes involve various activities bespoke for the students. There shall be Leadership training programmes, orientation classes, games, motivation programmes and managerial tasks. The programmes will enhance the students to develop major skills which are essential for them to meet the challenges in the real life situations which are alien to them while living in the comfort zone as a student. It is vital to imbibe the competitive attitude and strong emotional balance among the students to overcome the critical challenges they may face once they finish their campus life and enter into the society with high expectations and innovative thoughts. It is very much disturbing to realise the lack of psychological balance and emotional strength among the youngsters today which may deteriorate their confidence while facing critical but realistic situations. Frustration and depression are haunting these children and they may become prey to negative thoughts, deeds or situations. It is painful to know the increasing rate of suicides and accidents due to rampant activities among students.
