Guard the Treasure

Guard the Treasure

It was novel experience for us to play the ‘Guard the Treasure’ game. The game underlines the principle of trust and being trustworthy.

We do agree that the “Trustworthiness is the supreme condition for the achievement of the prosperity of mankind”. It is prerequisite for the rectitude of the conduct.

As instructed, we get divided into two groups (A and B) having 6 members in each group. We used small piece of cloth as ‘treasure’. Members of group A stand in a circle and one member stands at the centre of the circle so as to guard his treasure. The members on the circle tried hard to snatch away this treasure. In this way, each group has given 10 minutes to play the game. The following is the score of the two groups:

Group A	Group B
02	03

Members from group B were the winners as they snatched the treasure 3 times in just 10 minutes.  In all 05 (2 +3) members had the chance to snatch the treasure. But remaining 7 (4 +3) members could not snatch the treasure. The members felt that they are trustworthy while guarding the treasure. But, when the treasure was snatched from them, they did not feel confidence and felt that they did breakage of faith of their team members.

In all, each member agrees that they need to watch their words and actions and thus remain trustworthy in the family, society. They need to be trustworthy while performing responsibilities and affairs. Further, these members agreed that they will not misuse/ abuse their power they understood the life is impossible without ‘trustworthiness’. And hence, “Trustworthiness is the supreme condition for the achievement of the prosperity of mankind”.
