And with him was his Mentor, Cmdr Dilip Donde who had done a similar feat in 2009. when the idea of another \u00a0Indian naval officer repeating Cmdr Donde\u2019s feat, this time non-stop, was mooted in 2011 , the mantle naturally fell on Abhilash\u2019s young shoulders, as he was not only raring to go but knew the challenge well having joined Cmdr Donde to repair and maintain the weather-beaten \u2018Mhadei\u2019 at every port where he had stopped during his voyage in 2009. And after many hours of gruelling training through some real rough waters, the day dawned when \u2018Mhadei\u2019 was handed over to him and he was told, \u201cAll yours &#8230;\u201d .Mhadei belonged to him and he was Mhadei\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6377.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2913\" title=\"DSC_6377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6377-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a>And it was all that he had. With the limitations of \u00a0space in the sailboat ,his \u00a0resources were few .He was the captain, the chief engineer, first mate and the second, the cadet and also the chef , Which meant waking every 30 minutes\u2026 tracking the weather, checking the boat, reading, doing the chores and then sleeping again for exactly 30 minutes, before waking up again and going through that same routine over and over again \u2013 like clockwork for 150 days . \u00a0The Mhadei set sail from the Gateway in November 2012, it travelled\u00a0 through miles of vast expanses of seas and oceans, traits and gulfs , went round all the capes with only the occasional birds, whales and sharks as visitors. Sometimes, Abhilash would wake up to winds blowing at 130 kmph and waves topping 30 feet which would make him\u00a0 forget everything and concentrate on the job at hand \u2013 coaxing \u00a0the Mhadei to safety through fiercely turbulent waves and frighteningly calm seas with nerves of steel. With just a couple of hours sleep, he was always watchful for the pirates who fortunately never showed up! With the wind, waves and sun guiding him, he went on relentlessly, all by himself, with no \u2018real\u2019 person to have a conversation with; communicating the story of his adventurous and perilous journey to the world thru his cell phone, thru his diary, his blog on the internet and the radio. Mhadei belonged to him and he was Mhadei\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>When he landed back on shore, his feet were trembling. He had got so used to living on the deck of the boat that he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6421.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2914\" title=\"DSC_6421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6421-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a>couldn\u2019t even take a few steps on the terra ferma. But, he doesn\u2019t mind taking another round, because as soon as he landed, Abhilash asked his commander, \u201cSir, can I go for one more round, please? \u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe waves were angry, they were playful, they were calm, the winds egged us on, the sun warmed us .They respected us; they were our friends whom we met on the way. We bring back no trophies; we bring back a lesson .Earth provides us with all our needs but not for our greeds. It tell us \u201cAll yours&#8230;\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 and we need to the learn that \u201cLess is more\u201d, said Abhilash, in conclusion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6366.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2910\" title=\"DSC_6366\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welingkar.org\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DSC_6366-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a>Needless to mention, he got a standing ovation. All of us at WeSchool, including Prof Dr Uday Salunkhe, our Group Director, an adventure enthusiast himself, rose to our feet to salute the bravehearts that made every Indian proud and brought our Commander-In-Chief, Hon\u2019ble\u00a0 Pranabkumar Mukerjee, President of India to felicitate the hero of Sagarparikrama II at the Gateway of India in April 2013. For Welingkarites , Abhilash\u2019s message had a special meaning. For a B School that believes in mentoring the Global citizen leaders that will have the strength to override the challenges thrown by the turbulent times, escape the narrow confines of personal ambitions and goals to work for societal good , experiential learning has always been a part of our pedagogy. Apart from numerous corporate honchos starting with Indira Nooyi, thespians like the BIG B, philosophers Like Swami Parthsarthy, legendary adventurer-environmentalists like Apa Sherpa and Robert Swan, filmmakers like Prakash Jha and many other leaders from different walks of life, have shared their words of wisdom with the young mangers-to-be at WeSchool to help them change their lenses and refocus on career and life anew. Outdoor stints and expeditions help individuals to not only build confidence, trust and empathy, but generate understanding and transfer knowledge in a manner different from the traditional method of teaching where teachers simply transfer knowledge upon their students. Experiential learning allows WeSchool students to engage their own experiences and reflect upon them to further synthesize \/analyze information and develop skills that are vital for the twenty-first century.\u00a0 It also helps to emphasize the value of working for the common good of diverse stakeholders across geographical and ethno-cultural borders; these collaborative efforts foster a deep sense of equality while fostering a deeper appreciation of one another\u2019s diversity.
