Hari OM Dear Families,

Here is this week's update.


Week 14:
7th February 2021 / 9:15AM
Class began with opening prayers -3 OMs and followed by SahanAvavatu.

One of the students led the chanting  of "Neelambuja shyamala komalaangam".

Key to Success and Vibhishana Gita
We started our second unit for the year- Key to Success (Vibhishana Gita). We had a great discussion (whiteboard below with the children's thoughts) on the following questions- What makes you smile? What is success? How do you measure success? What do you need to be successful?


Gita Chanting
We started to learn the 21st and 22nd slokas from this year's topic- Chapter 2 Saankhya Yoga. We followed Swamiji's chanting video and we repeated it. We had volunteers leading and the rest following.
We concluded the class with Aarathi and Pledge.
Our next class is  on February 21st, which is Spirit Day!
