Dec 11, 2020 - JCHYK Grade 10-12 (Friday)

Hari Om! Parents,

Most students have learned the Gita Dhyana shloka well, and have chanted individually many times over the past few classes.  In January we will begin learning Aditya Hridayam.  Gita Chapter 2 chanting is also going well, we have completed 12 verses.  Grades 10-12 can participate in reading for the Gita competition, so we encourage all to practice and participate.

In today's class we completed Chapter 13 of the Bhagavad Gita.  We discussed the 20 virtues that Lord Krishna explains as necessary for preparing the mind for Self Knowledge.  As it turns out, most of them prepare us well to face life too.  Students will pick one or two of the twenty values and practice for 30 days. We have assured them that they will definitely see a change in the state of their mind.  The details from our class can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17vil0Y00mHbYPRrsvy9e2G_kNvnNc14y/view?usp=sharing

Next week will be our review class.  We are planning a Jeopardy style quiz to keep it interesting.  At 8:20 pm we will join the entire Friday group to see the Grade 9 play.  Hope all of you will join as well to encourage the children.

Thank you,
Aruna and Sirisha
