bharat scouts and guides flag

World scout flag

The flag is actually royal purple with the white fleur-de-lis and rope is the flag for
the World Organization of Scouting Movements (WOSM), headquartered in
Switzerland. The flag represents all member organizations of the WOSM in a like
manner as the United Nations flag represents all member nations of the UN.
The flag is taken from the fleur-de-lis, or lily of the flower, which as the previous
poster wrote, is found as part of the Scout emblem of every other nations’ Scouting
organizations. It is also found frequently on compasses and pointing devices and
points in the true direction, as Scouts should also be moving positively toward.
The two stars on the flag allude to truth and knowledge, the two most important
elements found in the creeds, promises and oaths of all member organizations. They
also remind us of the stars in the sky and the outdoor element of Scouting.
The rope encircles the fleur-de-lis and a reminder of the true brotherhood of all
WOSM members. The rope is tied at the bottom in the reef knot (we Americans call
it the square knot), which is the most useful of all rope knots if tied properly and
reminds all of our obligations to be of service to one another as well as to be useful.

National flag

 
THE NATIONAL FLAG OF INDIA  is in tricolour ( TIRANGA) of deep
saffron (Kesari) at the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom in
equal proportions.
The Indian flag is a horizontal tricolour in equal proportion of deep saffron on
the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom. The ratio of the
width to the length of the flag is two is to three. In the centre of the white band,
there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law
in the Sarnath Lion Capital. This center symbol or the ‘CHAKRA’,  is a
Buddhist symbol dating back to 200th century BC.
Its diameter approximates the width of the white band and it has 24 spokes,
which intends to show that there is life in movement and death in stagnation.
The saffron stands for courage, sacrifice and the spirit of renunciation; the
white, for purity and truth; the green for faith and fertility. The design of the
National Flag of India was adopted by India’s constituent assembly on 22nd
july, 1947. It’s use and display are regulated by a code. The flag symbolizes
freedom. The late Prime Minister Pandit Nehru called it a flag not only of
freedom for ourselves, but a symbol of freedom for all people.

how to achieve this motto?

 Scout Promise (Oath)
On my honour, I promise that I will do my best

To do my duty to God and my country,

To help other people at all times,

And to obey the Scout/Guide Law.

SIGN, SALUTE AND LEFT HAND SHAKE

The Scout sign identifies you as a Scout anywhere in the world. Use it whenever
you give the Scout Oath or Scout Law.
The hand is still held palm facing out, and the thumb holding the little finger, but
the hand is held at the shoulder
The three upraised fingers stand for the three parts of the Scout Oath. The thumb
and little finger together stand for the bond between all Scouts.

SALUTE
The three-finger salute is used by members of Scout and Guide organizations
around the world when greeting other Scouts and in respect of a national flag at
ceremonies. In most situations, the salute is made with the palm face out, the thumb
holding down the little finger, and with the fingertips on the brow of the head.

Meaning of the three fingers

1. Honour God and the King

2. Help Others

3. Obey the Scout Law

LEFT HAND SHAKE

The left-handed Scout handshake is a formal way of greeting other Scouts of both
genders used by members of Scout and Guide organizations around the world when
greeting other Scouts. The handshake is made with the hand nearest the heart and is
offered as a token of friendship. In most situations, the handshake is made firmly,
without interlocking fingers, and many organizations only use this handshake when
both people are in uniform.
Meaning of the left-hand
Various sources have attributed the origin of the handshake, as an ancient sign of

bravery and respect, to Lord Baden-Powell‘s encounter after battle with Prempeh I,

or to earlier published works by Ernest Thompson Seton. There exist various

versions of the Prempeh story, all centering around African warriors using the left

hand to hold their shields and to lower it and shake the left hand of the person was

to show they trusted each other.

According to the Ashanti warrior version of the story, then-Colonel Baden-Powell

saluted them with his right hand, but the Ashanti chiefs offered their left hands and

said, “In our land only the bravest of the brave shake hands with the left hand,

because to do so we must drop our shields and our protection.” The Ashantis knew

of Baden-Powell’s bravery because they had fought against him and with him, and

they were proud to offer the left hand of bravery.

The left hand is also closer to the heart, with that attendant symbology.
