MUMBAI, Jan 31 (The CONNECT) – Harsha Hinduja, president of the India Friendship Bonsai Society (IFBS) and Trustee of Hinduja Foundation and wife of prominent business tycoon – Ashok Hinduja, and Urvashi Thacker, Vice President of IFBS, in collaboration with Jamnabai Narsee School inaugurated the Bonsai exhibition – “Bonsai Bonanza,” today at the Jamnabai Narsee School Campus in Mumbai. Renowned Bollywood Kajol Devgan was the chief guest and Yagi Koji, Consul General of Japan, was also present for the event. This is the 22nd year of the India IFBS.
Harsha Hinduja said, bonsai has all the five elements – water, fire, earth, air and ether (essence of spirit), to resonate with the deepest part of your being. All these elements combined, are the humbling purity of the cosmos and the interconnectedness of life. Bonsai exhibits embody the principles of balance, simplicity & seasonal awareness.
Kajol said, events over the last five years or so have shown that “we are not stronger than nature”. “Science has improved and we have gotten better as a species but we have to go back and connect with nature at root level, which this event is a wonderful example of,” she remarked.
