An unforgettable Nectarine event







25th December 2012: Kadtal is located close to the International airport in Hyderabad. This year it became  home for  global  meditators. Close to 95,000 gathered from across the world, beyond barriers of religion and race, to listen to eminent artistes.  The Celestial Nectar team was invited to perform before them. These pictures have captured the mood of this gathering. They wouldn't let Arunji leave the stage until they extracted a bonus of his popular bhajan  numbers.

Ulsoor Turns into a Brindavan





9th December 2012: The evening session began with a sampler of caring beyond imagination. It was a narrative of a crab running on the seashore and admiring it's own beautiful footprints. Suddenly a huge wave splashed and washed away the footprints. The disappointed crab asked the wave:'I considered you as one of my Best friends, and then what made you do this?' The wave replied: "A fisherman was following your footprints, that’s why I cleared it off." Knowledge soon blended into devotional melodies  which  transformed the packed auditorium into a Brindavan; as if on cue, when the lines of Murali Manohara began, the audience were elevated into raas mood.

Trichy women get tips on Ancient Wisdom


5th Dec 2012: The Nivedan Hall, Trichy saw an eager turnout of a prominent Women Empowerment Group to gather tips from ancient wisdom. A serene ambiance and soothing music contributed to an absorbing  morning session. 

The preciousness of  human birth figured in the presentation that included techniques to tune and tame the Mind.  We are then freed to have  the time to see, when woods we pass, where squirrels hide their nuts in grass; time to see, in broad daylight, streams full of stars, like skies at night; time to stand and stare!

Business Ethics and Spirituality



1st December 2012: Young Managers of tomorrow at a  Bangalore Business School called IAME-B SCHOOL. The audience were  in rapt attention listening to an address on Business Ethics and Spirituality. The presentation  traced examples of  how both Corporates and NGOs in the previous century operated ethically, still could  sustain competition and reward  their stakeholders  by practicing  values  and ethics in their managerial decision making. An enjoyable Q&A followed.
