IBM Supports RB-PFP Movement @ Ramakrishna School
Vudaiy Vallabhu (Project Manager, IBM)
The interaction with the children on RB-PFP Project with IBM Go Green Kits was very encouraging as they were readily giving suggestion on the 3R's.Children engaged in a calculation of the wastages at home and school mostly on Plastic covers and Paper waste. They came up with ideas on the quantity of paper and plastic bag waste that they can reduce. Discussion on the Reuse brought up various Ideas on how old cloths, books and bottles can be reused and Recycled. Being guided by CORPORitual Values Of Living through Soulbah Peace Foundation’s action process of the Raj Bhowmik Plastic Free Planet, what inspired me more is the answer to the question on why should be do this movement be done for all and the spontaneous answer was to be useful Citizens – CORPORitual’s Manifest Your Purpose of Existence – Our Purpose must serve and help humanity. The children were really ready to take this forward. The Children were provided with steps towards being Successful Leaders in individual & Collective capacities through the Success Leadership CORPORitual Values of Living Workshop which can make them life leaders. The Management of the school wants us to conduct this program to all the other High School classes after their vacations. A fulfilling day. Thank You IBM for providing me with supporting resources and a company that takes care of a larger humane world. I am proud to associate myself with IBM as an employee. Thank You Soulbath Peace Foundation for guiding me through smaller steps to reach and connect to every child.

Today I had an opportunity to be a part of the CORPORitual workshop conducted as part of imparting awareness of our contribution to the environment and how we can effectively optimize ,reduce ,reuse and recycle the waste through our interactions with our environment. This was a part of the Raj Bhowmik Plastic Free Planet initiative from Soulbath Peace Foundation using the ‘Go Green Kids’ activity kit from IBM. This workshop was conducted at Sri Ramakrishna School , Jogupalya for children of grade 8 and 9.There were around 70 kids in total who actively participated in a very interactive and a motivating workshop.
The entire workshop started with a note of thanks to the management of IBM and the Founder of Soulbath Peace Foundation Sri Raj Bhowmik who together paved a platform for us to reach out on a global cause of saving our Planet for the future generations to come. There was a lot of questioning, reasoning and assimilation which lasted for a long duration. The children have themselves come up with their commitment of initiating a cleaner environment in their school. The management of the school also extended a warm support in terms of the arrangements made and the efforts taken to provide a smoother flow for the entire session. The children participated very effectively while we discussed the importance of the 3 R’s Reduce,Reuse and Recycle and this was their take away for their future.The need to minimize the use of plastic, the hazards of the plastic to our environment, the role of plastic in blocking the drains and the sewage system were discussed in detail. The solution to this problem was given in the form of RB-PFP bags which set an example to the use of reusable cloth bags. This was very much appreciated by the children as they came up with innovative ideas of how they can reuse their old clothes to make bags, re-use the text books and segregate the waste before disposal.
When this discussion was followed by the CORPORitual workshop discussing the four values of living which work towards an internal change of an individual making him take charge of the situation, making him aware of his act, moulding him into a leader in his own life there was pin drop silence where all the discussions just started to get into assimilation. It was amazing to see how the children who would not stop to discuss just stopped everything to only listen. As every workshop speaks the language of Our Founder this was not any exception. The entire silence was the feed back to how the kids got connected to their deeper self and for sure will act from there. By the end of the workshop the kids were more composed and more connected to themselves and their environment. The workshop was concluded thanking all the children and the school management for their proactive step of inviting us and setting up the entire environment for this workshop in spite of the hectic schedule and examinations ahead.
This was another beautiful experience for me as every CORPORitual workshop makes me learn more and be more in a new way. I thank Sri Raj Bhowmik and Soulbath Peace Foundation for helping me connect to the most compassionate side of me and making my life more meaningful.
