Thinking about child's education?

Consider Open Learning, Life Learning

Hello Rashmi Virendra,

Child is not engaging with the online-at-home education?
Worried about his/her education?
Maybe this is an opportunity to consider alternatives. To walk out of the current, to discover possibilities, inside self and in the world.

When we walk out of the box, we live outside the box.
Life is about choices. Millions it offers. Life is about a child's interest, strengths, capabilities, explorations and joy.

When a child walks out of the curriculum, we do not give the child freedom, rather we give the child responsibility.
 We invite the child to be the leader of self.

 When the child walks out of the classroom, he/she embraces the whole world as a learning universe. Anybody can be a teacher or mentor, anybody can be a collaborator and anybody can be a friend.

 When the child walks out of pursuing artificial goals, the child can start pursuing own dreams.
 We then start creating our life: our efforts, our ways, our failures, our accomplishments.

 When your family walks out of schooling, you walk into a community. You share, you help, you collaborate and in turn the community raises your learning and life in often subtle but deeply caring and joyous ways.

 Inviting you and your children to open learning.
Inviting your family to the Aarohi community of families doing open learning.

Inviting you to join us for an informal meet-up on
understanding open learning / unschooling / Homeschooling.

These  online meet-ups happen every SATURDAY, 5pm to 6:30pm.

I Don't like TRUST

Dear Mummy and Papa Trust is such a big problem. I don't like it. Please do not trust me. When you say you trust me, this puts pressure on me. I don't like trust. You say you trust that I will keep my word. But many times I am not able to. Sometimes because I gave that promise because you wanted me to (and I didn't really want to) - like the promise of not eating that chocolate before dinner. Then you said that I had broken your trust. I don't like trust. You say you trust that I will not tell lies. But many times, when I'm simply scared to get a scolding, I tell lies. I was scared when I did not complete the project so I told that my teacher liked my work. Then you saw my diary and teacher's note and you said that I had broken your trust. I don't like trust. You say you trust that I will live up to your expectations. But the other day when i was teasing my friend badly, you said I had broken your trust because I did not behave properly while you expected me...

[Jagriti] Who is RESPONSIBLE ??

Excerpt from a book by OSHO - Rajneesh (Autobiography of a spiritually incorrect mystic ) The wise man wants you only to have insight into things so that you have your own light. But you don't want insight, you want clear-cut instructions. You don't want to see yourself, you want to be guided. You don't want to accept your responsibility towards yourself; you want to throw the whole responsibility on the shoulders of the master, on the shoulders of the wise man. Then you feel at ease. Now he is responsible; if something goes wrong, he is responsible. And everything is going to be wrong, because unless you take your responsibility nothing is ever going to be right. Nobody can put you right except you yourself. A real religious person is born the moment you accept your responsibility for yourself, the moment you say, "Whatsoever I am is my choice—not of the past but of the present. It is my choice of this moment, and if I want to change it I am absolutely free to change ...

Observing is Learning.

A man who wants to learn ZEN gets redirected to a small tea shop that an elderly lady runs. He goes and asks her, "Can you teach me Zen?" The elderly lady, in response, SLAPS him hard. Shocked, the man runs aways only to come back the next day, disguised, just to find out why she slapped him. He quietly sits in one corner of her shop, afraid that he may get slapped again. As he sits there, he observes . He observes how she makes the tea, how she serves her customers and how her whole shop is and he observes every little detail about this lady and her tea shop and thereby he learns  ZEN. When somebody tells us that he or she wants to learn about children or how to facilitate them, we recommend three things you must do and those are: Observe  Observe     Observe   Most of what we have learned about children has actually come about because we observed and are still observing and learning. Which is why when people want to learn from us, we gently, but firmly turn them to learn fr...
