Explanation
The chapter on page 4 mentions that the family is a 'school' where children learn important values such as ahimsa, dāna (giving), sevā (service) and tyāga (sacrifice). Kamal Parmar's initiative on pages 10-11 demonstrates these values in a community context. He gave his time, effort, and resources without expecting payment, embodying the spirit of service and giving. His initiative also inspired volunteerism in others.
