Introduction: Introduce to the children about MY WORLD – THE WORLD.
Goals: To make the children understand about the difference and meaning of MY WORLD AND THE WORLD.
Click of the topic: MY WORLD and THE WORLD must always be in tune for a peaceful living.
About the topic: The world is binary, arithmetic, logical, scientific and universal. My world is emotional, based on faith, beliefs, experiences of individual perceptions, realizations of individual identities, expression in its fullest form. My world is totally different from 'The World'. When my world is completely in tune with 'the world', you will not have any problem, you will be at peace.
The world is societal. People who are always going after The world, are caught in agitation, anger, stress and people who are completely caught in my world can sometimes miss 'the world'.
Mostly ordinarily people are caught between "my world" and "the world" and start preferring between these two.
When you start preferring 'the world' your whole life ends in depression, you are drained in 'the world'. When you start preferring 'my world' sometimes you can loose your balance and get into some fantasies. 'My world' should expand and grow and should completely be in tune with 'the world'.
For example, sometime we think 'the world' is only the right world. When we are travelling in vehicles, the plants and trees appears to be moving but they are not really moving. The "desire" is like the trees which pretends to be moving but actually never belongs to us, creating a fantasy in "my world".
The best way of enlightened living is 'my world' must be in tune with 'the world'.
