Introduction: Introduce the topic of Intensity to the child.

Goals: To make the child understand about what is intensity.

Click: Intensity is intensely being inside you.

About the topic: Whether we lead or whether we follow, in order to be fulfilled in whatever we do, we need to be intense. Only when the urge becomes urgent, when the question becomes a quest, does the ultimate happen. The deep dissatisfaction about what is there in the Inner space is what is called intensity. Your dissatisfaction which is now directed towards the outer world, has to turn towards the inner world and only then it will lead to satisfaction. If your consciousness is constantly moving towards the outer world, it is called restlessness. If it is moving towards the inner world, it is called intensity.

Intensity is not an emotion. It is like heat. The part of intensity that melts and comes out can be called emotion. The side effect of intensity is emotion. Intensity should become a quality.

If you are talking, let the intensity be there. In your relationships, in your decisions, in your memory, in your thinking, in your desires, even in your fear, be intense without escaping from that moment. That is what is called as intensity. Intensity means radiating the energy that does not create any conflict
