Threat

Augmenting death rates in ICU, threat of being infected, social distancing being practiced, situation where one’s face could not be identified with facemask and shield, above all, leading a secluded life—what a never-ending list COVID – 19 has left us with! With lockdown seriously imposed by the Government, most of us work and study from home. It has really been over 100 days since we met our friends, and beloved ones. And tomorrow . . . a bleak state!

Heal the World

Hindustan Group of Institutions’ students hailing from colleges and schools and Alumni members have come up with the Virtual Choir rendition of the most renowned Michael Jackson’s score “Heal the World.” A Song when reaches one’s soul, are believed to have therapeutic effects and foster goodwill. “Heal the World” instils hope to mankind with love, peace and equality as its central themes. It highlights the adverse effects of war and rage caused by it and how best the world could be if we stay away from it; and embrace peace, friendship and equality. Its lines, “If you care enough for the living/Make a little space, make a better place,” relates to our commitment through simple action in bringing change to the world. God has created this world in the image of heaven; and thus, human should glow His virtue by showing kindness, love and compassion to help someone else in order to make this world a better place to live.

Heal the World creates a sense of social awareness and reassures us to reset our priorities. Its lines “And the world we once believed in, will shine again in grace” tells us that through our conscious and altruistic action, we can make the desired difference in this world which is common for all. Though Heal the World concerns with peace being spread across world for a better future, its message could positively be related to our present pandemic state caused by Covid-19; wherein we should share love and compassion to our fellow beings and stay united to heal the world from the ill effects of Coronavirus. Let’s uplift the society with compassion and concern, true to the vision of Late Dr. KCG. Verghese, “To Make Every Man a Success and No Man a Failure.”
