Introduction: Introduce the topic of burning Intensity
Goals: To make the child understand about burning intensity.
Click: See the being blossoming, expanding and expressing.
About the topic: Look at the Oyster, it is waiting for the rain water to make the pearl. When the rain water falls, she just carries the rain water into her womb and goes down into the ocean. The process happens on the rain water and the pearl reacts.
The Oyster will be waiting with the mouth wide open on the waters of the ocean. She will be just waiting for the rain water. She cannot take the salt water and make the pearl. She needs pure rain water. The moment one drop of rain water falls on her immediately she will go into the deepest layer of the ocean and she will start doing the process. She will come out with the pearl . Intensity is integrity. Usually intensity leads to solid feelings. You may be intense but you may have lost the ability to flower or you may be flowing but may have lost the intensity.
You may be intense but you may have lost the ability to flow, because you are driven by your ego. You are determined to achieve what you want but you have your own rigid idea how to get there. The other possibility is that you may be flowing but may have lost the intensity. This is the case with people who have no facts, and waste their energies getting distracted by anything that comes by. Intensity is integrity and focus. Intensity with integrity and focus is called burning intensity.

LESSON: 3
Introduction: Reiterate the before topic and introduce about Becoming vs Being.
Goals: To make the child understand about Becoming vs Being and the healing touch.
About the topic: When you are intense, you just are, you don't need to become, you just need to be. We know so many ways of becoming. Becoming is totally different from being. All our knowledge is all about becoming. Becoming is directly related to the mind. Being is directly related to your nature. Becoming is related to society, being is related to you. We know only how to become something. We forgot an important factor, how to be. Because our inner space has become too much corrupted with the concept of becoming, we lost touch with the idea of being. We lost touch with our very truth which is being. If you can experience your being at least for one moment, so many negative things that you accumulated when you wanted to become will be washed away. Even becoming something will be a great success if you start after experiencing being.
'Being is intensity' – being is complete, total, integrated, expressing your full energy. Your anger is hypocritical. You just choose whether to express your anger or not. Your anger is also directly related to your logic.
When your logic manages your anger, you will have new problems. First you unnecessarily show your anger when it is not necessary. Second,
[Figure: INTENSITY]
even when you are not expressing, you will be suppressing. Suppressing and expressing both are not going to help. If everyone you can just be without moving your body, without co-operating with your emotion, you will be liberated from that emotion.
Assessment: Being and becoming are same or different? Which is needed being or becoming? All our knowledge is all about being or becoming? Which is related to your free nature? Which is related to the society? What happens when you experience being at least one moment? Why we have lost touch from the very truth? When all our stored negative things will be washed away? Your anger is directly related to what? When our logic manages our anger what will happen? Suppressing anger is good or bad? Expressing anger is good or bad?
Evaluation: Evaluate how well they understood the topic by asking multiple questions.
Conclusion: Being complex total, integrated, expressing your full energy is called being.
