With various concerns ranging from academics to a child's mental health, nutrition or creating the right balance between freedom and discipline, parenting can feel like walking a tightrope. Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, world’s most widely followed spiritual master and humanitarian, offers timeless wisdom and gentle reminders to be playful yet firm, involved yet trusting, and above all, deeply connected to their child’s inner world. Here are some very insightful quotes from the Master.
“Parents should become like children again - free, uninhibited, and natural.”
“You don't have to win all the arguments with the children all the time. Let some go.”
“As mothers, you can make children feel proud of doing (or giving) something for others.”
“There is no bad mother in this world.”
“Take it for granted that your children love you too and accept their style of expression.”
“Yoga and meditation are indispensable for the total development of the young mind.”
"Make your teens understand without getting into blames and accusations.”
“Children see their parents as strong when they stand by their commitments.”
“Introduce spirituality to children and also help them discover their own inner wisdom.”
“If every child knows a little about the wisdom from the different cultures, the world would be a happier and nicer place.”
“Become a good aunt or uncle to your children's friends. Your children’s friends have more influence on them than you. Look out for their well being as well. Once they listen to you, so will your children.”
