Lesson : We continued learning about pledge. We learned how service of various community workers is important that makes life easy and comfortable. The service to the country is saying " Thank You".

We brainstormed what are the different ways we can serve country. We can serve by being

conscientious Citizens. Service is love made visible. Where there is a love, the service is not a burden.

Activity : Coloring page. Drawing pictures how we can serve.

                    Manasa Bhaj re,

Sanskrit : Writing vowels. Writing Consonants : Ka,kah, ga,gha,da.

Lesson : We continued learning about Pledge. We learned God's grace is His Blessing. It helps us to build our character strong. We get it when we follow the path of virtue (good values we observe like telling truth, Being kind and helpful) courage( Facing fear while doing right thing) and wisdom ( Listening to our Iloo. ) We do not know there is a grace because we are not receptive. We are not receptive because our bad tendencies create a hole in our personalities and grace is lost.

We also learned that we are instruments of God. Our body is like Flute with holes. If holes are blocked we cannot hear music. Same way there are  holes ( sensory channels)  eye, ears, mouth, skin, nose we need to keep them clean by watching good movies, not saying bad words etc.

When we fill ourselves with positive virtues, such as love happiness, good morals intelligence, Bhagvan Krishna will use us for the noble cause. The noble actions will flow through us to the world around us.

Story : Bhakta Prahlad , how he followed the path of virtue, courage and wisdom.

Bhajans : Shree Ganaraya, Amba Parameshwari, Sharade Visharde, Jaya Durga Laxmi Saraswati

                    Manasa Bhaj re,

Sanskrit : Writing Vowels ( a,aa etc)

Lessons : We continued learning about Pledge.  Producing is making something. Consuming is taking, buying using. We continuously keep taking something. We do not think about giving back. We learned Sharing is allowing someone to take part in your possession, giving is offering something you have without expecting anything in return. However Bhagvan ensures that we receive something in return. The more we give more we will receive.
