LESSON - 4🔗

Introduction: Reiterate the day before topic and introduce to the children about physiology of perception.

Goals: To make the children understand about physiology of perception and the four dimensional world of space time.

Click: As long as cause and effect logic is under your control, you feel you are perceiving reality!

About the topic: When there is a perception of physical reality, the various parts of the brain show a change in neutral activity as the neurons, which are the basic building blocks of the nervous system, fire is synchronicity. This results in the random visual patterns of light being perceived as specific shapes and forms. This is how the input from each of our senses is perceived as an experience of particular sound, touch, smell, taste or sight. As long as cause and effect logic is under your control, you feel you are perceiving reality! Your ego is strong and steady.

But the moment the logic is shaken, you feel tremendous fear. You feel you are just a drop in an ocean. In our four dimensional world the maximum dimensions in space can be only three. We can call this fourth dimensional world can be looked at as a space time continuum. It can be said that time is the fourth dimension of space. We understand time in three forms - past, present and future. We think that the past is over and does not exist anymore.

The future has not yet happened, hence it does not exist. The present thus happens at the transition of the non-existent future to another non-existence, the past. It is not possible for the two dimensional being to believe that there can be a rise of events outside his plane of perception. That means to understand the three dimensional world, he cannot be in the two-dimensional consciousness, he has to rise to the three dimensional consciousness. Similarly to understand the four dimensional world we have to be in the fourth dimensional consciousness. As of now, what we feel as reality everyday of our life is also a 'virtual' reality. It is only a perception of things being separate in space and time. From whatever quality of consciousness we see, that appears as our reality, not the absolute reality.

Interpretation:

Evaluation: Evaluate how will they understood the topic by asking multiple questions.

Art of the day: DRAW THE SENSES

Explanation: Encourage the children to draw our five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch in a pictorial format. They can draw what means to them by these senses.

Inference: Our five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch are our gate way to perceiving this wonderful world. We must be very grateful to our senses.

Workshop: 2 Presentation

Activity of the day: PASSING THE BALLOON

Materials needed:

Explanation: Make all the children sit in a circle and explain to the children the game. Give each child balloon except any one child. Children has to pass the balloon listening to some music or sound like clapping sound when the music stops whoever not having the balloon must come out of the circle continue this to find who wins this game.

Inference: This activity needs lots of alertness and awareness.
