Bright Ray Training, Research &

Bright Ray Training, Research & is based at Kizhkkayil House in Mankulam Town. We are way up in the Idukki district, in the Munip area. It’s a really beautiful place to live and work because of all the trees and hills, even if it takes a long time to drive anywhere. We run everything out of a house, care of Sherli PJ. It’s a very local and simple setup. We do all our training and research work right from the rooms here. Since it’s a house, it has a very personal feel that you don’t get in a city office. We have our books and research notes spread out on the tables. Sometimes when it rains hard in Idukki, you can barely hear yourself think, so we just take a break. We don’t have a big staff, just a couple of us who are really into what we do. Everyone in Mankulam Town pretty much knows where the house is. We spend most of our days reading and writing and planning. It’s a slower pace of life here, which is actually quite good for the research side of our work. We keep things very basic and honest. If you’re coming to see us, you just follow the main road into Mankulam and look for the Kizhkkayil residence. It’s a quiet existence but we stay busy with our projects. It’s just a small local operation in a beautiful part of Kerala.
