Devi of Mpps Kamalapuram, Pulicherla Mandal, Chittoor District,Andhra Pradesh.India.
This is a hamletof very poor ST children.
Where we recently started milk and Ashwagandhadhi. On the teacher's repeated requests and insistence.
Devi's right elbow was very very painful. For years now. And she would never write because of that. She wouldn't let anyone touch it..
She was used to such poor food at home, that she had never had milk and could not stand the smell.
But with Dhananayaka Sir's persistence she started having it. And magic happened.
And now she us very well, the teacher said, the elbow does not hurt. She writes like other children.
This story tells us two truths.
The power of ashwagandhadhi. ... and the utter poverty and malnourishment our children live in ...
Nandika
This child, Dhananayaka Saar told me this morning, used to keep getting bleeding abscesses on her body. All over.
And with this nourishment, that has stopped. He called up to tell me that now there were just scars. In the lower picture.
This is my country. Weep.
