We went early and were let into the flower show without tickets, before it had officially begun. We then split up, explored Lalbagh, played games. We also happened to see the BBMP van catching dogs for vaccination/sterilisation, which is always painful to watch. We sat together with all the kids, explained it to them, and talked about it. There was a lot of discussion about alternative, less painful ways to catch dogs. We all spent some time at the big banyan tree -- some played Hide and Seek, and others ran a mud food restaurant.The van picked us up after we had eaten our packed lunch.
Shibumi is a study and learning centre for both adults and young people of school-going age. For adults it offers a space where, through dialogue, one understands oneself and relationships in the light of Krishnamurti’s teachings. For such interested adults only, Shibumi also offers an educational programme where resource persons and parents cooperate in creating a right learning environment for their children.
