Special gift for special people

Dear Matru Mandir Parents,

We are very thankful to you for being wonderful Matru mandir parents. As a thank you gift we wish to bring something very special for you. Because we know you are doing a great service to humanity by bringing up a wonderful child.

We are aware that creating happy, confident, loving and caring child needs lot more than safe and secured environment. It needs an emotionally matured, aware and childlike parent who can think & operate like a child but guide & direct as an aware adult. And to be such a parent we require a lot of physical and emotional energy as well as open & forgiving nature.

While parents have great intention of being such a parent our day to day life makes thing quite challenging and stressful. And in the process of juggling all roles they end up being unhappy, agitated and angry parent. A little fine tuning in our attitude and some simple tools like Pranayam, Meditation etc. will bring miraculous change in your life.

Siddha Samadhi Yoga (SSY) is the training which will bring out that exploring child from within you while creating better clarity about healthy & joyous living. It will connect you with your self and with the world around you and bring effortlessness in everything you do. SSY brings out your true potential which will in turn help you bring out your child's true potential. SSY creates happy families leading happy and healthy lives.

For supporting you in your parenting we are offering the SSY Introduction on this Sunday - October 16th at Matru Mandir during the Rishi S'Cool hours (9-30 to 11-30 am).

And as our special gift to you we will offer this class in convenient once a week sessions spread over 13 weeks on Wednesday 6-30 to 8-30 pm OR Saturday ( 4 to 6 pm) OR Sunday 9-30 to 11-30 am and at a special discounted price. Our usual cost of SSY training is $200 which includes registration and cost of material but as a Matru Mandir parent you will pay only registration cost i.e. $50. The complete program will be spread over 13 weeks which will include 12 session held weekly once (Sunday morning) and 1 whole day for Initiation.

We will discuss logistics and other details on introduction day.

Me & My Bapu

Without ever meeting and seeing how can someone inspire you so much? I not just revere Gandhiji but he has always been a great inspiration for me.

Yesterday was Gandhi Jayanti and I was trying to remember when I first became aware of Gandhiji's existence. And it dawned upon me that my relationship with Bapu started at the age of 5 when I stepped in to my school Balmohan Vidyamandir. And since that day in my heart little Bal & little Mohan always lived and grew.

Our school was established by Shikshanmaharshi Dadasaheb Rege who himself was just 7th grade passed person but had a vision of creating human beings like Mohandas Gandhi & Bal Gangadhar Tilak by giving right values through education. In fact the name of the school was kept "Balmohan Vidyamandir" by taking Bal for Tilakji's name and Mohan from Gandhiji's name. Dada used to tell us how he sees Gandhiji and Tilakji in us; how he wants us to be truthful and fearless in accepting and owning up responsibility & consequences of our actions just like Bapu did. I must have heard some of Gandhiji's stories so many times that they are ingrained on my mind.
For 10 school years of my life; every day I saw Gandhiji's statue and read & heard his stories and listened to Dada's words about how I must become like him. And though I left the school after graduating my association with Gandhiji continued. Somewhere deep down in my heart I carried Dada's vision with me.
Today while talking to my little babies at "Matru Mandir" I remembered my power over their tender minds. And I felt very happy that I was nurtured by a great soul like Dada who installed Gandhiji in my heart at such a tender age. Now I know Gandhiji will walk along with my little ones and guide them just like he guided me.
My new journey with Bapu started today.
