Hope you all are doing well & enjoyed celebrating Navratri & Dussehra. We had a short class and here is the summary
1. We chanted 3 OM's and said our beginning prayers - Om sahna bhavtu then a shlok for Lord Ganesha ( Vakratunda Mahakaya), Devi Saraswati ( Saraswati Namastubhyam) and one for our Guru( Guru Bramha) respectively.
2. We then chanted the Dhyaan shlok.
3. Reviewed the concepts from our previous class - visible and invisible backbone, meaning of Buddhi & Balam.
4. Brainstorming - What is Fame? How do we achieve it? Fame and greatness do not come by luck or chance, but through dedication, good habits and hard work. So we listened to the story of the our great teacher "Gurudev" . Here is the link - https://youtu.be/Am5DkzrOKo4. Are bad people famous? Is Ravan famous? Yes, he is. Our actions, good or bad, make us famous. During the discussion we heard a lot of names from famous personalities in the music industry, politics, bollywood and cricketers.
5. Game time - Hanuman Vadati (exactly like Simon says) with a twist. The action words following Hanuman Vadati were in Sanskrit. For example Hanuman Vadati upavishatu ( sit down). Kids are quickly catching up on Sanskrit words used while playing:)
6. We all joined a common zoom for Saraswati Pooja and concluded with pledge.
See you all on Sunday @9:15am. Take care everyone!!
Regards,
Chitra & Rupa.
