THE CHILDS FIRST LESSON

’’


Dear readers,


As soon as a child is born, with practically no schooling it starts loving its mother or the person who takes care of it. So love which is inherent slowly starts coming out from the childhood onwards without any external prompting.


The child then starts widening its circle of love encompassing in it more and more persons and other objects. The joy it gets when ever it meet its loved ones, if observed carefully, is natural.


But when the child goes to the educational institutions, unknowingly the mind of the child gets conditioned, with the result the child starts defining the love as taught to him or her and therefore forgets that it came with the birth in its purest form.


Children in schools and colleges are mostly taught about the nature and possibilities of inanimate things only. Very little is told about the nature of human beings and their higher possibilities.Matter gets refined and human mind becomes crude.


Humanbeings, if properly kindled, will love one another. Many grown up children are shifting their love too much to ’’things’’. They love things more than human beings. So they also tend to be like things. The ’’STONE HEARTED’’ approaches are increasing and people are becoming more and more insensitive to the problem of others.


Scientific advancement, which no doubt improves the standard of living, is slowly gaining upperhand. In the process the human element has become a casualty.Hence loving everybody should be the first lesson in spirituality. And instill that ’’LOVE’’ factor in the minds of your children
