THE ALCHEMY OF POSSIBILITY INTO REALITY🔗

These four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching exist in our very DNA. A seed becomes a tree or man realizes his potential only when these four principles are lived. A human has everything needed in him to become the ultimate reality, the divine reality. As of now, man is only a possibility. Only when these four principles become reality do you experience your actuality.

Anger is a tremendous energy we misuse because we do not understand and respect it. Greed, anger are all rajasic qualities that arise from passion and aggression from the blocked mūlādhāra cakra, the root center. These are instinctive emotions that we inherit from our animal ancestors. Indulging in these base emotions keeps one in bondage to his instinctive nature. This is the reason Kṛṣṇa classifies these as the root causes of sin. A human being is endowed with Consciousness that rises above these instincts. The meaning of a human life is not mere survival; it is the realization of one's Superconscious nature, one's highest reality. Anything that stands in the way of Self-realization is a sin.

MATERIALS NEEDED:

PROCEDURE Draw the story of the yogi who was told to learn buddhi as a cartoon series. Split the story between the children with each child being given one scene to draw. If there are many children, split into groups of about 4 children with each group splitting the full story between themselves. When they are done, place the drawings in the sequence of the story and let each child tell what is happening in their drawing (in the correct order), thus bringing the story to life.

INFERENCE Let children intranalize concepts like egoistic and doing work with awareness and authenticity.

Split the children into two groups. Each group takes a turn to try an activity from

Note: remind the children that these are only two of the four Varna

Learn how one's natural abilities influence our Varna, and that the abilities require training.
