HELPING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF CALCUTTA CHILDREN
Humanitarian and educator, Mohammed Khalil Ullah, is committed to improving the lives of the children of the slums of Calcutta and has found, in the technology of L. Ron Hubbard, the way to do so.
For several years Mr. Ullah has been running projects in the slums, including providing schooling and health care for the children, vocational training for women so they can learn the skills they need to get jobs, and rescuing children who have been the victims of sexual trafficking, providing them a place to live, food and education.
Learning about Mr. Hubbard’s technology when he attended a seminar presented by the Scientology Volunteer Goodwill Tour at the Calcutta Book Fair in January, Mr. Ullah thought Mr. Hubbard’s methods could help him accomplish his mission.
He trained on the Disaster Response Course and several other Volunteer Ministers courses, provided by the Goodwill Tour. Inspired by what he learned he decided to implement this on a broad scale; he opened a school in the Calcutta slums, where he incorporated the techniques of study technology into the curriculum and plans to open dozens more.
“The difference Mr. Ullah’s work is having on the lives of the children of Calcutta is incalculable,” said Ms. Marion Whitta, Director of the India Volunteer Ministers Goodwill Tour. "In a country where trafficking in children is commonplace, Mr. Ullah’s work is not a luxury — it is vital to the lives of the young people he is helping."
Assists are techniques developed by L. Ron Hubbard. They operate on the principle that one tends to withdraw mentally or spiritually from an injured area. Only by restoring communication with this area can one bring the spiritual element into healing, thereby greatly speeding the healing process. Assists are used to alleviate stress and physical aches and pains, or to orient a confused or distraught individual to his present environment.
