Award for Radha Burnier
Staff Reporter
CHENNAI: President of the Theosophical Society of India Radha Burnier was awarded the Chennaionline Golden Lotus Award 2008 for her lifetime achievements in theosophy at a function here on Tuesday.
Her work inspires “human regeneration, self-knowledge, truth, beauty and goodness,” said Latha Rajendran, secretary and correspondent of Dr. MGR Janaki College of Arts and Science for Women. She was presiding over the function organised by Chennaionline as part of the International Women’s Day celebrations.
“Our students witnessing this function are motivated to reach great heights,” she added. Students were called upon to admire and take note of Dr. Burnier’s accomplishments, which spoke of a cause greater than herself. Dr. Burnier was also commended for leading a simple and disciplined life, and for helping to “sculpt a healthy tomorrow.”
Dr. Burnier expressed how meaningful the award would be for all the members of the Theosophical Society. She reserved special praise for Indian theosophy. Dr. Burnier underscored the significance of science in the modern world. “If the whole of science is understood, the whole of the universe is understood. Individually, as human beings, we need to learn how to live rightly and sensibly,” she pointed out.
L. Ravichandran, managing director, Chennaionline.com, and Akhila Srinivasan, managing director, Shriram Group, participated.
