Say the name, every time

During the inaugural event of Mahatma Gandhi National Fellowship (Phase II), the obvious abbreviation MGNF was frequently used by the speakers and participants. Perhaps to shorten their talks. But at the end, the Chief Guest made an interesting observation on that.

"We should not use this abbreviation MGNF at all, rather every time we should say 'Mahatma Gandhi' National Fellowship. That way, you get to utter his name. And every time you utter his name, the associated values and virtues will reverberate". That is so true, isn't it. Every time those words are uttered, the idea of truth reverberates. The idea of non-violence reverberates.
