Hari Om dear Chinmaya family members,
Hope all of you are staying well.As the state moves to reopen some businesses and the weather starts to warm up, more people will be moving around.Please continue all the healthy practices during this lock down period to stay physically, emotionally and spiritually active and positive.
On May 1, the class did Y is for Yagna. Yagna is commonly understood as a fire ritual .We looked at how life itself depends on yagna. Heat of the sun makes plants grow. The heat of the stove cooks food for us. The heat in our body helps food to digest so that we can grow. The kids watched a demo in my kitchen of of 2 griddles on the stove with me pouring dosa batter. One dosa got cooked.One did not.I asked them why- of course an observant pair of eyes saw that one stove was on and other wasn't.The class discussion about how organs in the body work together in yagna spirit, or things in nature work in yagna spirit was further enhanced with the story of the farmer and the HUGE turnip.
On May 8, Z is for Zeal was touched upon. We have promised a fun zoom party which we shall all celebrate with zeal on the last day.
We did our lesson on P is for Prayer.It was wonderful to hear the children say things like-
I pray to say thanks to God.
One way praying is doing japa.
We listened to Gurudev's voice explaining why we pray.
Then we all watched Paduka Pooja together.
You all must have received the email about Swamis and Brahmacharins of Chinmaya Mission doing summer camp for 9 weeks from June 15 onwards on zoom.Please register and avail of this priceless opportunity.
