Namaste sada vatsale matrubhume, tvaya hindu bhume sukhamvartitoham......
I sang this every evening when I headed RSS shishu shakha at 12.
It was fun. The evenings, the small little games. The बौद्धिक। Stories of great kings & heroes. The sense of pride, the fulfilment.

Went on for a few months. Then, my ताऊजी got to know that I'm attending Shakha.
ताऊजी was an amazingly simple person. A Brahmin who lived in poverty despite his father being the Chairman of local municipality for 20 years. Despite his father being a person friend of Rajasthan CM

At night, he called me - told me a long story as to how the जांगिया वाले (that's Marwadi for RSS Chaddis) betrayed his father & other freedom fighters, gave info of their whereabouts to Brits & the Brits caught my grandpa along with Hiralal ji Shastri (1st CM of Rajasthan)
From next day, stopped going to Shakha.
And, I'm doing good. I'm human & humane. Harbour no ill will against none, except, evil.
Growing up shapes your life.
