Hari Om All,
This week we started our class with Likhita Japa followed by Shlokas.
- We practiced the Sri Mahalakshmi Ashtakam in class a few times. This was followed by a video recording of all children chanting this shloka. The class video recording will be sent to the parents via WhatsApp.
- We continued our discussion on Mahabharata by discussing the different Army formations during the Kurukshetra war. The following formations were discussed in detail:
- Krauncha vyuha (Heron formation)
- Makara vyuha (Crocodile formation)
- Kurma vyuha (Tortoise or Turtle formation)
- Trishula vyuha (Trident formation)
- Garuda vyuha (Eagle formation)
- Mandala vyuha (Galaxy formaton)
- Oormi vyuha (Ocean formation)
- Vajra vyuha (Thunderbolt formation)
- Additional formations will be reviewed in the next class: https://www.quora.com/How-many-types-of-vyuhas-were-used-in-the-war-of-Mahabharata-I-need-to-know-the-description.
