TEACHERS AT SAHAJA SCHOOLS

From dorm staff to the teachers, we listen in to see how our schools look like from the perspective of Gabriel and Niranjana (CISS), Genia (Borotin), Sofia and Monta (ISSC), Anna (DEVI), Soma and Laxshmi (JfC – Vienna). We talk about challenges, moments of growth, and the development we see both within ourselves and our students, as instruments for guiding a new generation along lines of compassion, wisdom and innocence.

CHALLENGES OF SAHAJA SCHOOLS

As you can imagine, building a school from scratch is never easy, especially when it’s a Sahaj school. And yet today we have a number of Sahaj schools that have been thriving for decades. This is a testament to the dedication of countless yogis eager to implement our Mother’s vision for a better world. Throughout the years, these schools have addressed many challenges, some that are short-lived, and some more persistent.

CHILDREN’S QUOTES AND STORIES

There is rarely a moment of dullness when one is working with children, be it in the classroom, outside, during dorm time, or any occasion in between. We’ve collected our favourite insights, quips, comments and alike for your delight! First and foremost we agree that kindness is key. So, look no further – see below – for a dose of kindness, laughter, and moments of growth.
