Applying Consciousness to Education


I watched something quite transforming in witnessing a brief lesson on pranam to a group of school children. Normally, I try not to include ashram members in the blog for the point of privacy, but this was to the core of my heart from this new view of devotion. The children were pouring in to offer their version of pranam which is full of energy and quite delightful to watch in itself--the joy of young people.  I snapped a few photos and then turned back to watch Gurudev and the Priests.  The scuffling feet behind started to slow, so I turned back around to witness a group lesson in pranam.  The visual and level of order was transfixing in itself.  Just someone taking a few minutes to explain, direct, and add guidance from the heart. No orange robe, just someone who is thoughtful, caring, and devotional.  Thank you for the life lesson in applying consciousness to education. Pranam. Both ends of the room were bathed in light.

Youthful exuberance!
A little bit of helpful guidance

Next group--all transformed in just minutes of coaching
All guidance applied with kindness and thoughtfulness.
