कुठेतरी आता अकस्मात एक अदृश्य दर्शन  दे 

देवा आता साजरा करायला एक सोहळा तरी दे 

आणि असे म्हणत, पाहता  पाहता भाद्रपद महिना येऊन ठेपला आणि सर्व संकटांवर मात करत आमचे बाप्पा खरंच दर्शन द्यायला हजर झाले. पुन्हा उत्सवाचे वातावरण पसरले आणि कार्यक्रमाची तयारी सुरु झाली.  श्रुसबरी ह्या बॉस्टन जवळील शहरात, गणेशोत्सव साजरे करण्याचे आमचे हे ९ वे वर्ष. 

यंदाच्या वर्षीचा चा गणेशोत्सव मात्र जरासा वेगळा. करोना महामारी मुळे जगभर सार्वजनिक सण साजरे करायला जे निर्बंध दिले गेले आहेत त्या नुसार आम्ही सुद्धा ह्या वर्षीचा सोहळा "virtual" म्हणजे आपापल्या घरातून करायचे ठरवले. नेहमीप्रमाणे लगबग आणि नियोजन काही महिने आधी पासून सुरु झाले. डिजिटल entertainment  ची नव-नवीन साधनं आत्मसात करून आम्ही कार्यक्रम करायला सज्ज झालो. 

ऑगस्ट ३० ला दुपारी २ वाजता, सर्व यंत्रणा "live" झाली, म्हणजे facebook live ह्या माध्यमातून व्हीडीओ द्वारे पूर्ण सोहळा रसिकांना पाहता आला. श्री. यतीन व सौ. स्मिता मांजरेकर ह्यांच्या घरी रीतसर पूजा झाली. छान सजावट, फुलांची आरास आणि तेजस्वी बाप्पाची मूर्ती पाहून सगळेच सुखावले.  स्मिताच्या आई वडिलांनी पूजा सांगितली व सर्व रसिकांना आणि भक्तांना घरी बसून पाहता आली आणि बाप्पा चे दर्शन घेता आले. "दुधाची तहान ताकावर" असा प्रकार जरी असला तरी, हे हि नसे थोडके म्हणत आम्ही ह्यातही आनंद घेतला. पूजे नंतर सामूहिक आरती सुद्धा छान पार पडली. अनेक देवांच्या आरत्या म्हणाल्या गेल्या आणि अनेक कुटुंब आपापल्या घरातून त्यात एका पाठोपाठ सामील झाली. मर्यादा पाळत त्यातल्यात्यात  जास्ती जास्त लोकांना सहभागी करून घेत आरती छान झाली. 

नंतर लगेचच करमणुकीचा कार्यक्रम सुरु झाला. पूर्णपणे आभासी (virtual ) कार्यक्रम करणे, रचणे आणि पाहणे हा आमच्या साठी आणि श्रोत्यांसाठी सुद्धा नवीनच अनुभव होता. सर्व पूर्व-ध्वनी मुद्रित करून ठेवलेल्या चित्रफिती तयार होत्या. कार्यक्रमाचे सूत्र संचालन मात्र "live" होते. अश्या स्वरूपाचा कार्यक्रम असल्याने ह्या वर्षीचे नावीन्य म्हणजे महाराष्ट्रातून अनेक प्रसिद्ध लोकांना आम्हाला सामील करून घेता आले. कार्यक्रम "retro to metro" ह्या theme वर आधारित होता. मराठी आणि हिंदी मधील प्रसिद्ध सिनेमांवर आधारित नाटुकली तयार करण्यात आली. आपल्या जवळच्या मित्र मैत्रिणींना पडद्यावर पाहून सर्वांना छान वाटलं. मराठी चित्रपटांमध्ये, सचिन पिळगावकर यांचे  "अष्टविनायक", "आत्मविश्वास", आणि "अशी हि बनवा-बनावी" ह्यांचा समावेश होता. तर हिंदी मधे "शोले", "मैने प्यार किया" आणि "थ्री इडियटस" ह्या तीन चित्रपटांवर आधारित गाणी आणि नाटुकली करण्यात आली. आपापल्या घरी सर्वानी उत्साहानी आणि भरपूर मेहेनत घेऊन चित्रफिती तयार केल्या होत्या. कार्यक्रमाचे, वर नमूद केल्या प्रमाणे, मुख्य वैशिष्ट्य म्हणजे महाराष्ट्रातून, सुप्रसिद्ध संगीत दिग्दर्शक, सिनेमा दिग्दर्शक, गायक, श्री. डॉ.  सलील कुलकर्णी ह्यांनी सर्वांना शुभेच्छा दिल्या, त्याच बरोबर श्री. अशोक हांडे (मराठी बाणा ) ह्यांची सुद्धा गणपतीची गाणे गाऊन त्यांच्या  शुभेच्छा आमच्या ISW गणेशोत्सव मंडळाला  पाठवल्या. श्री. सुधीर गाडगीळ ह्यांची त्यांच्या अनोख्या शैलीत पु ल देशपांड्यांची आठवण सांगत, कार्यक्रमाची रंगात वाढवली. नंतर प्रसिद्ध सिनेमा लेखक, दिग्दर्शक, "मी शिवाजीराजे भोसले बोलतोय", "शूट आऊट आट  वडाळा ", "वजीर", "आणि डॉ. काशिनाथ घाणेकर" ह्या सारखे दर्जेदार चित्रपट करणारे  श्री. अभिजित देशपांडे, ह्यांच्याशी साधलेला संवाद प्रदर्शित झाला. अभिजित देशपांडेंनी या गप्पांमधून  त्यांचे अनुभव, आठवणी, अभिताभ बच्चन सारख्या मोठ्या लोकां  बरोबरचे अनुभव संगितले . मुलाखत खूप रंगली. त्यांनतर मुलींनी केलेला एक बहारदार नृत्याचा कार्यक्रम रसिकांना खूप आवडला. 

 तब्बल २ तासांचा असा online/virtual कार्यक्रम कोणत्याही तांत्रिक अडचणी न येता अगदी प्रभावी पणे पार पडला.  डिजिटल एंटरटेनमेंट चे हे  आगळे वेगळे माध्यम आता अंगवळणी पडतेय असे वाटते. Virtual कार्यक्रम प्रभावी आणि रसिकांना खुश करणारा झाला यात वादच नाही. माणूस खूप परिवर्तनशील असतो, आणि तो  परिस्थिती प्रमाणे   बदल आत्मसात करतो.  त्यामुळे यंदाच्या  ह्या covid च्या परिस्थिती मध्ये साजरा  केलेला  हा उत्सव  आपल्या  सर्वांच्याच  लक्षात राहील. 

मनात हे बदलेले जग कायम घर करून राहणार... पुढल्या वर्षी मात्र हे जगभरातले सर्व चिंतेचे सावट दूर झालेले असेल, आणि आम्ही पुन्हा पूर्वी सारखे, नटून थटून, भरपूर ढोल-ताशांचा आवाज करत बाप्पांचे स्वागत करू आणि पंगती सकट, मोदक, श्रीखंडाचा भरपूर आस्वाद घेऊ  अशी सगळे  आशा करूया .. 

संस्कृती आणि परंपरा ही, काळ, परिस्थिती, माणसं, …माणसांची हौस ह्यांच्या पलीकडे असते.  काळ, बदलतो, परिस्थिती बदलते, माणसं  बदलतात, पण भावना, परंपरा, आणि सोहळे हे कुठल्या ना कुठल्या स्वरूपात सुरूच राहतात, आणि  सुरूच राहणार.....

 मराठी  शाळेचा  (virtual) गुढीपाडवा  कार्यक्रम  (एप्रिल १९, २०२०)

by Sarita Deshpande

   दरवर्षी प्रमाणे या वर्षी ही आपल्या ISW मराठी शाळेने गुढी-पाडव्याच्या कार्यक्रमाची तयारी महिनाभर आधी पासून चालू केली होती. सर्व मुले, त्यांना  सादर  करायच्या  कविता , गाणी , उतारा  वाचन  यांची  जय्यत  तयारी  करत  होती. पण फक्त थोडासा  फरक  हा होता , की दर वर्षी आम्ही आमच्या  शाळेच्या  ठिकाणी मोठ्या हॉल मध्ये  जमून, पॉट लक करून सर्वजण ( शाळेची मुले, पालक ,  शिक्षक आणि परिवार ) एकत्र जेवण करतो, तसे न करता, या करोना च्या वातावरणात हा सण आम्ही virtually साजरा केला.

   शाळेच्याच वेळेत सर्व  मुले आणि त्यांचे पालक नटून सजून कॉम्पुटर समोर बसून या समारंभात सहभागी झाले.

आमच्या सगळ्या मुलांनी ‘ गणपती तुझे नाव चांगले’ ही गणपतीची प्रार्थना  म्हणून कार्यक्रमाला सुरुवात केली.सगळ्या उपस्थित  असलेल्यांना गुढी पाडव्याच्या शुभेच्छा दिल्या, आपल्या जवळ खास यानिमित्ताने ठेवलेल्या छोट्याश्या गुढीला वंदन केले.

शारव ने गुढी- पाडव्याचे महत्व यावरील एक उतारा वाचून हा सण का व कसा साजरा केला जातो, त्याचे आपल्या मराठी वर्षाच्या कॅलेंडर प्रमाणे असलेले महत्व, त्या दिवशी घरोघरी कशी गुढी उभारली जाते, हा दिवस हिंदू वर्षातील पहिला दिवस आहे,  पुराणात सांगितलेल्या साडेतीन मुहूर्तांपैकी एक मुहूर्त म्हणजे हा दिवस आहे, अशी बरीच माहिती दिली.आरुष, स्वानंद , प्रांजली यांनी  मिळून अवयवांचे गाणे अत्यंत छान पद्धतीने सादर केले, सादर करताना त्यांच्या एकत्रित काम करण्याच्या पद्धतीचे सर्व पालकांकडून भरपूर कौतुक झाले. त्यानंतर आमच्या लहान वर्गातील अवनी , सान्वी, विवान , अनिशा , श्रेया या मुलांनी ‘ तूच माझी आई का?’  नावाचे एक छोटुकले नाटक सादर केले.सगळ्यांनीच खूप छान मेहनत घेऊन, सगळे अंक, बाराखडी , वार , तिथी याचे पाठांतर करून ते या नाटुकल्या अंतर्गत सादर केले.सगळ्या मावश्या, काका, यांनी या छोट्या शिलेदारांचे मनापासून कौतुक केले. 

 आपल्या bmm पाठ्यपुस्तकातील सगळ्याच मुलांचे लाडके असलेले ‘ घड्याळाचे गाणे ‘ साकेत ने अगदी खणखणीत आवाजात तोंडपाठ म्हणून सगळ्यांचीच शाबासकी घेतली तर  त्याचीच मोठी बहीण तृष्णा हिने ‘ एक छानशी ‘ बबलगम’  नावाची कविता अस्खलित आणि स्पष्ट पणे सादर केली. आर्यन ने ‘शुभंकरोती कल्याणम आणि भीमरूपी महारुद्रा ‘ हे दोन श्लोक - जे त्याचे बाबा त्याच्याकडून रोज म्हणवून घेतात, मनापासून म्हणले. शमिका ने या सध्याच्या करोना lockdown मध्ये घरी राहून ती काय वेगवेगळ्या गोष्टी करत ती हा घरात बसून राह्यचा वेळ कसा सत्कारणी लावते, तसेच या परिस्थिती बद्दल तिचे काही विचार हे सगळे लिहून त्याचे वाचन सादर केले. 

 तर ध्रुव आणि स्वरा या आमच्या विद्यार्थ्यांनी  त्यांना नेमून दिलेले ‘ कपिला आणि जेनी ‘  आणि ‘पाहुणे’  हे उतारे स्वच्छ, शुद्ध आणि स्पष्ट उच्चरात वाचून सादर केले. 

    एकूण  कार्यक्रम जरी ऑनलाईन साजरा होत होता तरीही प्रत्येक मुलाची उपस्थिती आणि सहभाग हा वाखाणण्याजोगा होता. कार्यक्रमाला आमच्या शाळेच्या इतर काही शिक्षिका आणि आमच्या डायरेक्टर मॅडम ही उपस्थित होत्या.  प्रत्यक्ष रित्या जरी भेटता आले नाही, तरीही या अशा आगळ्या वेगळ्या स्वरूपात गुढी पाडव्यानिमित्त भेटून मुले आणि पालक मंडळी एकदम खुश झाली यात मात्र शंका नाही.

   

    गुढी उभारली  सुख-समृद्धीची, जमुनी आगळ्या स्वरूपे 

    मराठीची गोडी वाढवू, उन्नत करू, बालचमू रूपे

ISW Marathi Shala Gudhi Padva Event

This year, as every year, our ISW Marathi school had started preparations for the Gudi-Padva program a month in advance. All the children were preparing for the poems, songs and transcripts to be presented.  The only difference was that every year we gather in a big hall at our school premises, with potluck, (school children, parents, teachers and family) lunch together, without doing so, we virtually celebrated this festival in this Corona environment. 

   We celebrated this event during our regular school hours on Sunday. All the children and their parents sat in front of the computer and participated in the ceremony. 

  Our children started the program by praying Ganapati, 'Ganapati, Tuze Nav Changale’ 

   The reading on ‘Why and how this festival is celebrated, importance of Gudhi-Padva, how Gudi is erected at home on that day, this is the first day of Hindu Calendar, one of the auspicious days of the year, etc’ was presented by Sharav.

    Arush, Swanand, Pranjali performed  songs on ‘body parts’  together in a very nice way, while their method of working together was appreciated by all the parents. After that, Avni, Sanvi, Vivan, Anisha, Shreya from our Junior Class, performed a short play called 'Tuch Mazi Aai Ka?’ 

Everyone worked very hard, recited all the numbers, alphabets, verses, dates and performed it under this play. All the aunts and uncles appreciated this little wonder. 

    Saket recited a poem which is favorite of all the students. The poem was’ Ghadyalache Gaane’. Triashna performed a beautiful poem called 'Bubblegum' which applauded everyone as she recited it in a loud and clear voice

Aryan recited the two verses ‘Shubhankaroti Kalyanam and Bhimrupi Maharudra’ - which his father recites with him as an everyday ritual.

. Shamika shared her readings on how she makes the most of her time at home in the current Corona lockdown, as well as some of her thoughts on the situation.

        Our students Dhruv and Swara read the excerpts 'Kapila and Jenny' and 'Pahune' assigned to them in clear, pure voice and in an  efficient manner. 

The overall event was celebrated online, the attendance and participation of each child was commendable ,the event was also attended by some other teachers of our school and our director madam. Although we could not meet in person, there is no doubt that the children and parents were very happy to meet in such a unique way on the occasion of Gudi Padva.
