Our dearest captain of the sky's high azure of pride, whose gloves have held nothing but tiny strikingly furious catches of victory . Standing as the 7th wonder of his pitch, a man who has defied excellence overulling the intricacy of his trade, Mahendra Singh Dhoni stands as the epitome of blissful craft.

Born on July 7, 1981, in Ranchi, Mahi has most definitely charmed the buzzing crowds in the facade of a calm demeanor over the heaped pulsating pressure. Being the only captain ever that led the cricket team to victory in all three ICC trophies – the T20 World Cup in 2007, the ODI World Cup in 2011, and the Champions Trophy in 2013 as it is duly quoted " I'm on national duty. Everything else can wait."

From his incredible stumpings to his match-winning knocks, his journey from a tenderfeet to inarguably the most successful captain of the Indian Cricket team is a verdict that some people are just morphed for a very special purpose.

Words and praises couldn't possibly adorn you but none the less Happy Birthday, Captain Cool!

Tweeting of songbirds,

Upon the rhythmic tiptoes of spring,

As the warm sun shudders the frost chested within,

Chorusing twigs & tinkling chimes,

Grace the gaiety chords struck with raucous smiles

Doused with gulaal,

And the freshness of Bhandari,

Clicks so soiled,

yet pretty at the same time.

Spoiled in the blithely gale of the whirling tints meshed across the sky,

With a tinge of whooping delight garnishing those smiles,

Basking in the warm gleeful blessings of this wintery sight,

As the jaggery melts with a crunch of sesame in every bite of delight.

Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, is a prominent Hindu festival in India that celebrates the victory of good over evil. It commemorates Lord Rama's triumph over the demon king Ravana, as narrated in the epic Ramayana. The festival begins with nine nights of devotion to Goddess Durga during Navaratri and culminates on the tenth day with the burning of effigies of Ravana, Meghanath and Kumbhakaran, symbolising the eradication of evil. Dussehra is marked by grand processions, cultural performances, and a spirit of unity among people. It serves as a reminder of the significance of righteousness and the enduring power of good in the world.

Sports and Adventure Club wishes all a very Happy Dussehra, may the victory of good over evil inspire you in your life's journey.

सोभित कर नवनीत लिए।
घुटुरुनि चलत रेनु तन मंडित मुख दधि लेप किए॥
चारु कपोल लोल लोचन गोरोचन तिलक दिए।
लट लटकनि मनु मत्त मधुप गन मादक मधुहिं पिए॥
कठुला कंठ वज्र केहरि नख राजत रुचिर हिए।
धन्य सूर एकौ पल इहिं सुख का सत कल्प जिए॥

As Soordas goes gaga over the surreal beauty of Krishna, it makes us no exception. Krishna himself states “The only way you can conquer me is through love, and there I am gladly conquered.”

Krishna is the soul of the Mahabharata, the charm of the Srimad Bhagavatam, and the celestial voice of the Bhagavad Gita. Even today, some hear the notes of Krishna’s flute waft over the rustling leaves of the trees in Vrindavan. He was not only a charming cowherd, glorious king, mentor extraordinaire, and divine incarnation but also a "Makhan Chor" who never failed to mesmerize the hearts of people.

While the Rasa Lila re-creates the charming aspects of Krishna's youthful days, Dahi Handi celebrates God's playful and mischievous side. On this auspicious note, Sports and Adventure Club wishes you and your loved ones a joyous Krishna Janmashtami and him to guide you toward a path of happiness, peace, and spiritual enlightenment.
