Hari Om Families,
Hope you are well and ready for Diwali! I will be sending emails every other week in order to avoid redundancy.
In the last two classes we spent time honing in on the Dhyana Shloka and its attributes. We started with the Empty Pot story and discussed its meaning. The children were able to take away righteous values regarding truthfulness. We moved on to Buddhih and told the story of Akbara and Birbala. The children practiced using their Buddhih in a game of Pooja Didi Says! In our short class on October 20th, we went over Balam and Yasas (Strength & Fame). We spoke about what it means to be mentally strong along with fame and what it takes to receive it. The children have been chanting Dhyana Shloka every class and are become very well versed with it!
We also began Hanuman Chalisa in the last class and worked on the first few stanzas. We will be working on a little bit at a time every week, and will be relaying the meaning as well. The children participated very well in the House games too!
Thank you for reading! Please reach out on Whatsapp with any questions!
Hari Om,
Lakshmi and Pooja
