Happy birthday to Mother

Hi Friends….

As we all are working for the same cause…it is our duty to remind her Selfless deeds once again in order to get some inspiration and keep our desires of helping others burning till the last minute….

This day marks the birth centenary of a simple nun who, through her work among the poorest of the poor, became the conscience-keeper of her century.

Today, August 26, 2010, the birth centenary of Mother Teresa will be marked with celebration and thanksgiving in many parts of the world. This simple nun with her unique brand of faith and compassion was able to alleviate loneliness, hunger and destitution by reaching out through a worldwide mission to millions of abandoned, homeless and dying destitutes, irrespective of their religion, caste, faith or denomination. In the process she became, indisputably, the conscience-keeper of her century.

As one who was associated with her for 23 years and became one of her biographers, it is not easy to encapsulate her remarkable journey. Born in Skopje, a city in the folds of the Balkans, then as now a crucible of many religions and races, she was the youngest of three children of deeply Catholic Albanian parents. Her father died when she was seven; her mother struggled to feed her family and turned increasingly to the local church for spiritual sustenance. Young Agnes (as she was then known) encountered uncertainty and adversity early in life. The lessons of diligence, discipline, frugality and kindness were imbibed in these early years.

Today, when teenagers often have difficulty making up their minds as to which course to study and where, Agnes had decided, at the age of 14, to serve as a missionary, not in her local church, but in faraway India, then a world apart, of which decision the only certainty was that she would never return home.

A new life opened in Calcutta in 1929. She had joined the Loreto Order as a novice aged 19. Here she would take her religious vows and teach for almost 20 years. In 1948, in an even more cataclysmic turn of events, again entirely of her own making, she left the convent doors behind her for a vision of the street. She had realised that this was where her true vocation lay, and she pursued this goal with diligence, even obstinacy. This she did till the Vatican made her its first exception in several hundred years, permitting her to step out of the Loreto Order, but with her vows intact. She would remain a nun but without belonging to an established Order of the Church. These were early signs of spirit and will power, together with prayerfulness and faith, laced with not inconsiderable charm, which would provide the propulsion for the quite incredible journey that lay ahead.

The early milestones lay in recognition within her adopted country – first by the legendary Chief Minister of West Bengal Dr. B.C. Roy, to be followed by national recognition when Jawaharlal Nehru was instrumental in India awarding her the Padma Shri in 1962. Later, another redoubtable Chief Minister of West Bengal, Jyoti Basu, was to provide her his unstinted support.

By 1965, she had set up a vast network of service across India. The time had come for her to move her mission overseas. She saw need everywhere; there were plenty of the poor and hungry in divisive societies in each continent, in desperately poor and prosperous societies alike. And so she set up feeding centres and leprosy stations in Africa, AIDS hospices in North America, community programmers in the Australian outback, and a host of services that helped lift the most marginalised, hungry and lonely from a desolate life in streets and slums of Africa, Asia and the West.

"God loves a cheerful giver" was a refrain I would often hear as I walked with the smiling Sisters of her Order among sullen faces under London's Waterloo Bridge, serving them their only hot meal on a wintry night; in the process I saw where they spent their nights: coffin-sized cardboard boxes, their only homes. In San Francisco and Los Angeles, I talked to young AIDS sufferers in her hospices, knowing that I would never see them again. In Madrid, I met the aged and the destitute, wracked by a disease called loneliness, which Mother Teresa called the "leprosy of the West". And then the final triumph, a centre carved in the heart of Catholicism itself, in the shadow of St. Peter's in the Vatican, handed over by a Polish Pope to an obedient but persistent nun. She appeared a frail figure against the rigid hierarchy of the Church, some of whose members frowned in private that the Vatican had hardly any space let alone for a soup kitchen. Yet, in my eyes, Mother Teresa and John Paul II had, at one stroke, demystified a thousand years of sometimes rigid Papal tradition, in an understanding of the deepest Christian ethic that they shared.

Although she herself remained fiercely Catholic, her brand of faith was not exclusive. Convinced that each person she ministered to was Christ in suffering, she reached out to people of all religions. The very faith that sustained her infuriated her detractors, who saw her as a symbol of a right-wing conspiracy and, worse, the principal mouthpiece of the Vatican's well-known views against abortion. Interestingly, such criticism went largely unnoticed in India, where she was widely revered.

She was criticised for conversion. Yet in all the 23 years I knew her she never once whispered a suggestion regarding conversion. However, I asked her if she did convert. Without a moment's hesitation, she said, "I convert. I convert you to be a better Hindu, a better Muslim, a better Protestant, and a better Sikh. Once you have found God, it is up to you to do with him as you wish." While she never deviated an inch from her path and was a religious, not a social worker, she was quick to realise that in India, Catholicism was practised by a small segment, and the 19th century proselytising approach could not be sustained.

From her humblest beginning in the slums and streets, she reached out to alleviate the problem she encountered by the simplest and most straightforward means available to her. Her thinking was both simple and complex: when asked how she could touch a leprosy sufferer and clean his sores, she said she could do it because for her that man was the suffering Jesus. "I would not clean him for all the money in the world," said an observer. "Nor would I," Mother Teresa replied, "but I would do it for love of Him."

She could multi-task. She had to be a administrator par excellence to set up a multinational organisation that spread to 123 countries by the time she died, with the help of about 5,000 members of her Order, and countless millions volunteers. Her hands were always full, but comforting one individual at a time was more important than "getting lost in numbers"; it had to be that way, because each individual was a divine manifestation, each to be comforted, held, rescued, fed and not allowed to die alone.

I once called her the most powerful woman in the world. Mother Teresa replied: "Where? If I was, I would bring peace in the world." I asked her why she did not use her undeniable influence to lessen war. She replied: "War is the fruit of politics. If I get stuck in politics, I will stop loving because I will have to stand by one, not by all."

She had her critics. There was criticism about her taking money from dubious sources. I once asked her about it. She said without a moment's hesitation. "I accept no salary, no government grant, no Church assistance, nothing. But how can I refuse anyone who chooses to give money in an act of charity. How is this different from the thousands of people who each day feed the poor? My task is to give peace to people. I would never refuse." Yet she never asked for funds or even permitted fund-raising. Mother Teresa depended on providence. She believed if the work was intended, the money would come. If money did not come, the reverse held true.

What would happen to her mission when she passed on, I once asked her. She did not answer but instead only pointed her finger towards heaven. But I persisted. She laughed and said: "Let me go first."
I asked her the third time and this time she replied: "You have been to so many of our missions in India and abroad. Everywhere our Sisters wear the same saris, eat the same kind of food, do the same kind of work. But Mother Teresa is not everywhere. Yet the work goes on." Then she added: "As long as we remain committed to the poorest of the poor and do not end up serving the rich, the work will prosper."

COMPETITIONS AT FORUM FOR STREET CHILDREN ON 08.08.10

Dear Team,

I have visited FORUM FOR STREET CHILDREN on 8th August, 10 to conduct QUIZ, DRAWING COMPETITIONS along with HELPING HANDS TEAM and also to plan the further proceedings on how to go in this home to transform the children.

Lakshi Kanth Mantri explained his views of how to go on….he wants create committees involving Students of the same home. He wants to create Hygiene, Computer and Library committees and assign the home management responsibilities to the children.

But we (AMMA-ASWA) are more aiming at transforming the children attitude by inculcating discipline and creating interest on studies and also to change their attitude.

I decided to appoint a full time warden (student/men who have service motto) with full control on children instead of appointing a tutor for 2 or 3 hours daily (who have no control on children except these few hours).

We are working on this along with HELPING HANDS NGO. Once we get the permission from HOME MANAGEMENT. We will search for the person who is willing to do this job once we get the permission.

Will wait  every update …..

Lending a hand to critically ill children
Staff Reporter
'Heal a Child' bears medical expenses


The foundation ties up with six private hospitals
It has helped six children since June

On a mission: Dinesh, Rachna Mehta, Diana Hayden and Kiran during the launch of 'Heal a Child' Foundation on Friday. —

HYDERABAD: To help critically ill children in dire need of medical attention and lack the financial resources to undergo treatment, Heal a Child Foundation, a charitable trust and non-profit organisation has come forward to bear the expenses of their treatment.
The mission of the foundation would be to heal and save critically ill children who may not survive, not because of their illness but only because the family cannot afford to pay for the medical expenses and treatment, said Rachna Mehta, a trustee with Heal a Child Foundation.
Reaching out
In Hyderabad, 10 children need critical care everyday. All of them need treatment, but we need to reach out to at least one child a day, said former Miss World Diana Hayden, who is the brand ambassador of the foundation.
The Foundation has tied up with six private hospitals in the city – Rainbow Children's Hospital, Lotus Children's Hospital, Apollo Hospital, KIMS Hospital, Sunshine Hospital and Nice Hospital.
According to an understanding, the hospitals will treat the children in a special category and support the foundation by giving maximum possible concession on the medical bills, it was stated.
"At this stage, we are not going to the children. They have to go to the hospitals. If they are unable to undergo treatment because of financial constraints, then we step in," said Dr. Dinesh Kumar, a trustee of the foundation and director of neonatal and paediatric intensive care service at Rainbow Children's Hospital.
Appeal
Speaking at a press conference to announce the launch of the foundation, Ms. Hayden requested corporates to step in and help children in dire need of medical aid. We aim to raise funds for the care of critically ill children needing intensive care support with a specific focus on the new born. We are especially interested in saving the girl child, said Ms. Hayden.

Set up in June this year, the foundation has helped treat six children during the last 1.5 months, according to Dr. Dinesh. We also helped one child whose father is a worker in a cloth shop in Godavarikhani about two months back, he said.

ANNAM PARABRAHMAM PROJECT

DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD

అన్ని దానాలలో కన్నా అన్నదానం మిన్న


ASWA’s aim is to feed the Destitute mentally challenged who are on roads or who are in dire need of food. We talk to them and try to join them in the old age homes. We also donate used clothes along with Food distribution wherever necessary. Hope this will help to create a balance between excessive food production and its proper distribution to lower level needy people.



Our Volunteer Prabha used to distribute food packets to roadside destitute on special days. We used to assist her in these activities. Like other volunteers, Mr. Veera Bhadran. K got inspired from this and suggested us to take up this as a regular project. In July, 2011 our Management Board agreed and Mr. Uma Sankar came forward to take up the entire responsibility to execute this project along with Prabha. Just donating is not our objective, helping the needy is always our prime focus


We appreciate Sarath Chandra for taking the responsibility of Project Coordinator in 2013. Then he has visited different Govt. hospitals where many people are suffering with lack of food. Of course, Patients will be served food by hospital itself but what about other family members/attendees of the patient? We observed many and based on the collected feedback we started distributing 100 Packets of food in Niloufer Children Hospital, Lakdikapool, Hyd on every 3rd Monday@7PM (also on other special days based on sponsors). Now it’s increased to 150 packets with the initiation of donors and volunteers. Mohan Nag Kumar & his Mother, Dhanesh, Narender & Nagendra are regularly volunteering. We distribute Lemon Rice/Veg. Biryani/Pulihora/Curd Rice based on the situation. We are doing distribution in Nellore, Anantapur & Vijayawada
