An open general body meeting was conducted by Sophia club on 15th
November, 2016 to bid farewell to their founder-president,Mr Akash Dayal
sir. The meeting was addressed by the vice president, Arnay Shukla, who
honored the president by calling him a rare jewel having a charming
mindset. He expressed his views about Sophia being a large family of
like-minded intellectuals and also briefed a few thoughts about the
recent events that took place under the shadow of Sophia such as the rainbow lecture, lecture on cross cultural development and other events in Oneiros.
President Akash Dayal sir stood high on the podium when he was called
on to present his thoughts. The audience, mystified by his presence,
listened intently to the respectful personality who had cherished a tree
so big and huge so as to be called the intellectual society of Manipal
University Jaipur. The honorable president expressed his nostalgia on
leaving the brain child he had groomed since years. He gave foremost
credit to Prof. Dr. Anthony sir for being an amazing philosopher,
efficient guide and an imminent sculpture in crafting the ideas behind
this Philosophy club. Apart from that, credits were showered on the vice
president and other CC as well as OC members for being closely
connected to the club’s activities.

issues he wanted to be raised in future discussions such as climate
change and terrorism. He explained the meaning of philosophy and as a
message to his followers, he asked them to consider this a new beginning
just as rise of a blazing sun after a peaceful dawn. The aim of Sophia
club which is to develop compassion and love others as well as the
nation was explored once more.
Later, Dr Anthony sir was called upon to bid farewell to one of his closest disciples. He elaborated the idea of invisible nature of things and how we should allow life to guide us.
