On raising kids – me, my Guru
n.set great ideals in front of him,
talk about them and revere those ideals - be it RAMA, JESUS or Jabala and above all YOU!
o. Love him as much as you
can.......but that love doesn't mean hating someone else (like people who scold
him or win over him etc)......
p. stop marketing yourself as a 'good parent' and just be the parent as good as you can be......you are not here to please others - just to be be with your kid......so make the most of it....
q. As a reiki channel do reiki for the kid every single day.
r.. and above all - spend time
with him, he'll grow very fast and you can't bring back those childhood days
with him again ......play with him, dance and sing with him, roll with
him.....do every little activity with him, enjoy with him.......because at the
end of this journey all that would matter is did you spend good moments with
him or not? no point regretting later” saying this she left us to attend a
phone call.
We ended up discussing all these
points and comparing them with facts of life and the various incidents that
matched with these explanations.
Here was a simple question but she had wound up the whole journey in just few words. She gave us an essence of all that we needed to play our part of ‘parenthood’ right!
It was easy to be simple but it is very difficult to be simple! So true and yet here was a classic example of that. And many times this simplicity made us blind to the profundity of the issue and the solution or working process.
Even today we went home rich. And yet
as many days most of us didn’t validate the richness of her words!
(Hope this post answered your questions/doubts completely!)
#child rearing, parenthood, expectations, pain and suffering of a parent, joys of parenthood,
Points to be looked into and understood :
This is just not for parents or children having complaints about their parents not knowing how to be a good parent. Here in lies answers also to people who are going or wanting to go into any relationship. Every relationship we are concentrating only on "doing things" in it. We miss the "being" part of it. We assume we are already very good to be in a relationship and then suffer the consequences of having one later and then curse Reiki/God/master for letting that "relationship happen".

I have to bookmark this post. I need to keep going over it from time to time. It is something that we know deep down, but when the time comes it takes strength to actually follow it (especially when we aren’t able to agree on the approach with our family members).
Thank you ma’am for creating this blog and posting all these precious lessons! Thank you for everything!

Hi Supriya! Yes I’m bookmarking this too. As parents we are often don’t realise how our passion for our kids is changing us as a person and how we are influencing the kid.
