On raising  kids – me, my Guru

Image result for parents quotes“mm....then what can we do as parents? Can't I protect my child against pain and suffering all through his life? Good questions. Question every parent asks and suffers the answer – no! You can't protect him from failures, pain and suffering” replied our Guru.

Svetha questioned her again “but i want my child to smile always and be happy always “.

“Yes, every parent's wish and desire but still, the painful truth is it is not so.......

they have to fall, fail, be hurt, fall sick and suffer various lows of life”

“But then Guruji  what is the difference between us and other (non reiki) parents (i would suggest you better read it as non sadhaks or people with no clarity or love for their child!)?” asked someone from the side.

Our Guru replied “The answer is :

a.Be there for the child when he fails or falls - without judging or lecturing......just be there for him.......you can lecture later when he has risen......but then just stand there with him......

b. don't let your fear stop him from experiencing life in toto .....

c. don't let him be dependent on you and the comforts you give him.......teach him to fend for himself....teach him to be independent , i would go a step further and say, teach him to take care of others too.

Image result for parents quotesd. you can't stop him from getting hurt but you can teach him not to hurt others, to be sensitive  towards others be it human or animal or plant - life in general.......
e. don't think of saving him from harsh realities of life instead give him strength to face realities of life 

f. don't push him to think life is all about winning......teach him to give his best and to work on himself to better himself in every aspect of life.....if possible teach him to help others win in life.......teach him to help others realize their dreams
g. your upbringing can make him think that he deserves all the best in the world and that everyone and the world owes him service and are here to wait on him.......beware of this damage

you can teach him to be grateful for all that he has and receives
you can teach him to be good to all
you can teach him to be selfless
you can teach him to be HUMANE!
