SUMMARY:SHLOKA CHANTING FOR CHILDREN
DESCRIPTION:Shlokas and mantras in Yoga are based on sonic science that enhances memory\, concentration\, clarity of\nspeech\, and mental focus\, while also nurturing a calm and steady mind. This timeless tradition is especially\nessential today\, as children are increasingly exposed to digital stimuli from a very young age. Starting on the\nauspicious occasion of Vijaya Dashami\, this course will introduce children to select shlokas through traditional\nchanting methods. \nYoga is a vast and deep science of life that helps us to unfold\, harmonize and integrate ourselves at all levels of\nphysical\, mental\, emotional and beyond. \nYoga Vashishtha\, one of most significant texts of Yoga defines Yoga as “Manah prashamanopayah yoga\nityabhidhiyate” – meaning Yoga is a technique\, a tool and method to pacify and calm down the mind. \nIn the Vedic tradition\, mantras are imparted in the childhood; with the special initiation in Gayatri mantra at\nthe age of 8 or 10 years with the Upanayan ceremony. \nThe meaning of mantra is made up of two Sanskrit words – mana which means the mind and tra which means\nto protect. So\, mantra is that which protects the mind. Mantra is a codified spiritual sonic science works on our\nnervous system\, mind and heart and can help us to modify and improve for our overall growth and well-being. \nShloka chanting energizes the whole body and brings mental clarity\, and calmness. While this was a regular\,\ndaily ritual in our tradition\, it has been lost for most of us leading modern lives in the digital world. \nThis series of five classes spread over four weekends\, aims to introduce shlokas for children and beginners of\nany age. The classes begin on the day of Vijaya Dashami\, Dussehra which is traditionally considered as an\nauspicious day for beginning new learning\, vidyarambham. \nThe students will learn chanting in a traditional way with emphasis on clear and correct pronunciation\, which\nnaturally and subtly improves the vocal\, mental and pranic abilities. You will also reflect on the meaning of the\nshlokas of Guru\, Lord Ganesha\, Goddess Saraswati that are deities of learning\, removing obstacles\, grant\nknowledge and wisdom. \nWe are blessed to have a special teacher to conduct these classes. \nDr. Rama Shankar\, a physician by profession\, is a devout follower of Sanatana Dharma with a keen interest in\nstudying the Bhagavad Gita\, Ramayana\, and Mahabharata. Her hobbies include practicing Yoga\, listening to\nCarnatic music\, and chanting. After retiring from her medical practice\, she has dedicated her time to teaching\nchanting\, emphasizing the rules and guidance for proper and accurate pronunciation.
