Motivated Talk:

Rajyoga meditation teacher BK Sister Shivani, while addressing students and parents at GD Goenka Public School here on Thursday, motivated talk them to set priorities in life. She explained that the most important was the happiness of mind, followed by good health, mutual love, and harmony in a relationship, and material success later.

Shivani was speaking during a session on ‘How to give children a healthy environment’ organized in the school on the occasion of Basant Panchami.

She said, “People bring all the things they need in their homes, but forget that with money they can buy things of comfort, but not inner happiness and peace. Our mind controls every emotion and when it is not calm our energy is not used in the right direction. We have higher expectations from our children but are we giving them a healthy environment where their energy and strength will remain after returning from school.”

The need was more than to build a beautiful house, to create a beautiful environment where children can relax and do his best work, said Sister Shivani.

“Children do not have the habit of listening because they have found everything in life very easily, and perhaps that is why they do not appreciate those things and nor do they have the ability ye to withstand life’s struggles and pressures,” she said.

“We did not make any pressure on our children to make things easy, whether it is studying or the availability of anything. But instead of making things easy, we needed to make the children stronger because it is necessary for their life ahead when they will face many challenges,” she said.
