Balshibir - Children assembly
To cultivate the culture in a tender age the Balshibirs are being
organised for the children up to 16 years of age. These
Balshibirs
generally concentrate on the students
who are unable
to get education through
Gurukul, as the Gurukul students have
the advantage of these opportunities
during their Gurukul life. The
students from distant villages are invited during vacations and are
taught the value of the culture and heritage, moral life and
benefits of leading a religious life, through various
programmes such as discourses,
celebrations of festivals,
practical
performances and self development
activities.

direction for the creative output
of the society.
