Dear reader,

We are happy to feature the Gandhian economist Shri.J.C.Kumarappa as the personality of this month. There is

a write up in Tamil on Shri.S.R.P.Ponnuswamy Chettiar, who was one of the important architects of present day

Coimbatore. This being the year of Swami Vivekananda's birthday, we have included an anecdote from his life. A

report on the Tamil awards function organized by Bhavan's Coimbatore Kendra, reports of the events at the

schools and a few thought-provoking write-ups are also there.

Happy reading!

The editorial board

J. C. Kumarappa (born

J o s e p h C h e l l a d u r a i

Cornelius) was an Indian

economist and a close

associate of Mahatma

Gandhi. A pioneer of rural

economic development

theories, Kumarappa is

credited for developing

economic theories based on

Gandhism – a school of

economic thought he named 'Gandhian Economics'.

Kumarappa was born on 4 January 1892 in Tanjore,

as the sixth child of Solomon Doraisamy Cornelius, a

Public Works officer, and Esther Rajanayagam. S.D.

Cornelius sent his illustrious sons JC Cornelius and

Benjamin Cornelius to Doveton School and later on

to Madras Christian College. After becoming the

followers of Gandhi, both these brothers adopted

their grand father's name 'Kumarappa' and were

hailed as Kumarappa brothers. J C Kumarappa later

on did Economics and Chartered Accountancy in

Britain in 1919. In 1928 he travelled to the United

States to obtain degrees in Economics and Business

Administration at Syracuse University and

Columbia University.

On his return to India, Kumarappa published an

article on the British tax policy and its exploitation of

the Indian economy. The study of the subject

convinced him so strongly of British injustice and

exploitation that he became a nationalist. He was

pretty clear in his mind that man is not merely a

wealth-producing agent but essentially a member of

the society with political, social, moral and spiritual

responsibilities.

Kumarappa met Gandhi in 1929. During the course

of Gandhi's Dandi March, Kumarappa's articles

began to appear in Young India. When Gandhi,

Mahadev Desai and others went to England for the

Round Table Conference, Kumarappa had to assume

the editorship of Young India. His fiery writings

landed him in jail twice.

After completing his second term in jail, Kumarappa

went to Patna as Financial Adviser for the large-

scale relief work following the earthquake that

swept Bihar in 1934. His work earned laurels from

Dr Rajendra Prasad who said that Kumarappa's

meticulous accounting had really saved the honour

of Bihar.

Kumarappa was a strict disciplinarian. In Bihar he

laid down that three annas would be allowed as the

PERSONALITY OF THE MONTH

(04.01.1892 – 30.01.1960)

Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any

obstacle. - Christian D. Larson

maximum food expense for a relief worker per day. A

common kitchen was organised and managed within

the prescribed limit. These rules applied even to the

leaders. This quality had won him the pet name

'Colonel Sahib' in Gandhi's inner circle.

On 27 October 1934, Kumarappa was made

Secretary of the All India Village Industries

Association. He also served as a member of the 'Nayi

Taleem' committee, headed by Dr Zakir Husain,

which was set up for reorganising the educational

system. Thereafter, Kumarappa became the

chairman of the Industrial Survey Committee. Later

on, he was to take up several such assignments and

do his job with mathematical accuracy and

perfection.

In 1942, Kumarappa was again incarcerated for his

article, 'Stone for Bread.' He used his seclusion in

reading and writing and came out with two books,

'Practice and Precepts of Jesus', and 'The Economy of

Permanence'.

In 1946 he formulated an elaborate scheme for rural

upliftment. The principles underlying the scheme

were self-reliance, self-sufficiency in food and

gainful use of the vast resources of human power. In

pursuance of this ideal, he declined an offer for

ministership and the membership of the Congress

Working Committee.

In 1948, when Gandhi was assassinated,

Kumarappa was so shocked that he lost the vision of

both his eyes. Fortunately he regained his sight after

a couple of days.

In the post-independence period, Kumarappa

travelled on various missions to countries like

England, the Soviet Union, Germany, China and

Japan. But he had over-exerted himself for the

national cause. Due to ill health he retired from

active public work and settled down in Gandhi

Niketan in Madurai district. Kumarappa breathed

his last On 30 January 1960 and merged with the

soul of his Master.

AN ANECDOTE FROM SWAMI VIVEKANANDA'S LIFE

A sannyasin, in the strictest

sense of the term, is always a

free soul. Like a river, he is

a l w a y s o n t h e m o v e .

Sometimes he spends the night

at a burning ghat, sometimes

he sleeps in the palace of the

king, sometimes he rests at a

railway station, but he is

always happy.

Such a sannyasin was Swami Vivekananda who was

once staying at a railway station in Rajasthan.

People kept coming to him all day long. They had

many questions, mostly religious, and Swamiji was

tireless in answering them. Three days and three

nights passed in this manner. Swamiji was so

engrossed in talking about spiritual matters that he

did not even stop to eat. The people who flocked to

him also did not think of asking him if he had any

food to eat!

On the third night of his stay there, when the visitors

had all left, a poor man came forward and said to him

lovingly, “Swamiji, I have noticed that for three days

you have been talking and talking. You have not

taken even a drop of water! This has pained me very

much.”

Swamiji felt that God had appeared before him in the

form of this poor man. He looked at him and said,

“Will you please give me something to eat?”

The man was a cobbler by profession, so he said with

some hesitation, “Swamiji, my heart yearns to give

you some rotis. But how can I? I have touched them.

If you permit, I will bring you some coarse flour and

dal and you can prepare them as you please!”

Swamiji said, “No, my child; give me the rotis you

have prepared. I shall be happy to eat them.”

The poor man was frightened at first. But the

eagerness to serve a monk overpowered his fear. He

hurriedly went back home and soon returned with

freshly prepared rotis. The kindness and unselfish

love of this poor man brought tears to Swamiji's eyes.

In the meantime, some gentlemen found that

Swamiji was eating food offered by a shoemaker and

were annoyed. They came to Swamiji and told him

that it was improper for him to accept food from a

man of low birth.

Swamiji patiently heard them and then said, “You

people made me talk without respite for the past

three days, but you did not even care to inquire if I

had taken any food and rest. You claim you are

gentlemen and boast of your high caste. What is

more shameful, you condemn this man for being of a

low caste. Can you overlook the humanity he has just

shown and despise him without feeling ashamed?”

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who

doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion. - Dalai Lama

VASANT PANCHAMI

Vasant Panchami is an

important Indian festival

celebrated every year on

the fifth day of Magh,

which generally falls in

late January or February.

It is the festival dedicated

to Goddess Saraswati,

who is the goddess of

knowledge, language,

music and art. It is

believed that Goddess

Saraswati was born on

this day. Hindus celebrate Vasant Panchami with

great fervour in temples, homes and even schools

and colleges. Another tradition associated with this

day is that of initiating studies in the young. People

also donate books and other literary material to the

poor. Poetic and musical gatherings are held in some

communities in honour of Saraswati.

The festival also celebrates the flowering of the

mustard crop. Larege fields are filled with yellow

flowers that look like flowing rivers of molten gold.

Yellow is supposed to be Saraswati's favourite colour.

People dress in yellow saris or shirts or accessories

The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn …and change.

- Carl Rogers

and share yellow

colored snacks

and sweets.

Kite flying is also

c o m m o n l y

associated with

t h i s f e s t i v a l .

Children as well as adults fly kites on this day to

celebrate freedom and enjoyment.

Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the

founder of the Sikh Empire,

encouraged the celebration

of Basant Panchami as a

s o c i a l e v e n t i n t h e

Gurdwaras. In 1825 CE he

gave 2,000 rupees to the

Harmandir Sahib Gurdwara

in Amritsar to distribute

food. He held an annual Basant fair and sponsored

kite flying as a regular feature of the fairs.

This year's Vasant Panchami will be celebrated on 29

January, 2020.

IT WASN'T YOUR BABY

There were two warring tribes in

the Andes, one that lived in the

lowlands and the other high in

the mountains. The mountain

people invaded the lowlanders

one day, and as part of their

plundering of the people, they

kidnapped a baby of one of the

lowlander families and took the

infant with them back up into

the mountains.

The lowlanders didn't know how to climb the

mountain. They didn't know any of the trails that the

mountain people used, and they didn't know where to

find the mountain people or how to track them in the

steep terrain.

Even so, they sent out their best party of fighting

men to climb the mountain and bring the baby home.

The men tried first one method of climbing and then

another. They tried one trail and then another. After

several days of effort, however, they had climbed

only several hundred feet.

Feeling hopeless and helpless, the lowlander men

decided that the cause was lost, and they prepared to

return to their village below.

As they were packing their gear for the descent, they

saw the baby's mother walking toward them. They

realized that she was coming down the mountain

that they hadn't figured out how to climb.

And then they saw that she had the baby strapped to

her back. How could that be?

One man greeted her and said, "We couldn't climb

this mountain. How did you do this when we, the

strongest and most able men in the village, couldn't

do it?"

She shrugged her shoulders and said, "It wasn't your

baby."
