This energy is indestructible and uncreatable, yet changeable.
It is one and enternal. Today Western science admits that there is only one eternal
cosmic energy, the sum total of which neither increases nor decreases. The modern
days “Laws of Thermodynamics”, state that “Energy
can neither be created, nor destroyed.”
This fact was proven by Kapila, the founder of the Sankhya system of philosophy in the seventh
century before Christ. We had our
Newton
in Aryabhatta who lived about 476 A.D., and who declared that the earth was moving
upon its own axis round the sun. Long before the Europeans knew the Copernican system
of Astronomy, this aryabhatta’s system was taught in
India
, and it was Aryabhatta who first declared that the law of gravitation existed.
He called it
Madhyakarshana, i.e., attraction towards the centre. Early Indian
astronomers did not have telescopes as we do. They had to rely on meditation, accuracy
of their eyesight to watch the night sky. Nevertheless, these astronomers were able
to make accurate measurements and had started decimal system of numerals. Aryabhata
was a great mathematician. His value forp, or ‘pi’, of 3.1416, is still used today.
We had our
Shakespeare
in Kalidas; we had our philosopher greater than
Kant
and
Hegel
in Sankaracharya, greater than
Hume
and
Berkeley
in Vashistha; and we had materialistic philosophy in the system of Kanada. The atomic
theory of Kanada is a wonder to the Western minds, because in such an early age,
i.e. in the pre-buddhistic period, Kanada proved to the world that this external
universe has been made of minute particles of matter- ‘anu’ (atoms), which are indestructible.
Again, we find that these atoms of Kanada were not the final particles of the material
world. However, particles finer than the atoms were also discovered by Kapila, and
he called them “Tanmatras”;
which would be similar to the electrons and protons of modern science. The electrons
are the force centres of negative electricity and the protons are of positive electricity.
Such great advancement was made in different branches of knowledge and science in
the pre-Buddhistic age which lasted between 1500 B.C. and 600 B.C.
Then in moral and spiritual lines, the Hindus were the
first teachers in the world. Centuries before the Christian era, long before Moses
gave the Ten Commandments to the nomadic tribes of Israel, when the European nations
were eating raw animal flesh, living in caves and forests, tattooing their bodies,
wearing animal skins, the civilization of India
was in its high glory. The dawn of civilization first dawned not upon the
horizon of
Greece
, Europe, or Arabia; but upon the horizon of
India
.
India
is not a country of today, but she had the sublime teachings of Vedanta long before
the time of
Moses
, when
Krishna
sang the
Bhagavat Gita
in the battlefield of Kurukshetra. All those who came in touch with
India
were benefited. During the Buddhistic period, as we know from the historical dates
of
Asoka
, Buddhist preachers were sent out to different parts of the then civilized world,
from Siberia to
Ceylon
, and from
China
to
Egypt
. Buddhist monks travelled and preached the gospel of love for all. They spoke of
and the highest ethics of humanitarianism in foreign countries. Those teachings
of
Buddha
were afterwards emphasized in the teachings of
Jesus
the
Christ
. Christianity can be traced back to the Hindu ideals in many of its doctrines and
dogmas.
Ernest Renan
has said in his “Life
of
Jesus
” that the principal part
of Christianity i.e., Baptism was not known among the Jews of that time, but it
came from the
Ganges
. In important 17 years of life of
Jesus
, is explained in the book called “
Jesus
lived in
India
”.
Jesus
took the initiation of “Kriya Yoga” from BabaJi in Badrinath,
Himalayas
.
India
, today, once again, is surging ahead with revolutionary growth
in the field of economics, intellects, sociological and spirituality. There is an
urgent National need to bring about a radical break through in the educational system
of the country. We have to overcome the impediments of the present modus operandi
and build futuristic institutions of tomorrow. Tremendous potential lies in the
human brain. The present systems of education are not ignorant, nor has it been
brought to the knowledge of parents. The system of education therefore, is not equipped
enough to tap the child’s ability optimally. The effective development of
mind power and brainpower within a nation will decide the quality of the human resource;
and thereby the prosperity of the country. We have to change the course of
India
in the coming decades by filling our “Mother
India”; with Children with the courage of a lion, with a sense of philanthropy,
and passionately involved in creativity.
We have to be visionaries and then build this (Bharat)
India
of ours for tomorrow. Far too long, we have been happy with our past glories, historic
achievements, our few
Nobel
laureates and few International leaders. (One Buddha, one Ramakrishna, one
Vivekananda, one Tagore, one Jaggedness Chandra Bose, one Taj Mahal, Basilica of
Bom Jesus, one Takshasheela, one Nalanda; but that is all past.) What about now,
what about today? Why can’t we build some more great souls like
Vivekananda,
Paramhansa Yogananda
, Ramana Maharishi,
C.V. Raman
,
Tagore
,
Dr.
J.C. Bose, Amritya Sen and Mother Teresa, Kapila, Aryabhata,
Sushruta for tomorrow?
Keeping in mind the rich Vedantic heritage, the messages
from ‘The Masters from
India
and around the world; Victorious
Kidss Educares
was started in 6th 0f Jan 1997 as a magical start of a learning revolution
in
India
; aiming to sweep across the world.
The crystallisation of the framework was initiated in our mind by the powerful thoughts
of
Swami Vivekananda
for the children of our country; I quote,
“Every person is
born divine. What we want is western science coupled with Vedanta, Brahmacharya,
and Shraddha for ones own self and self respect.”
Swami Vivekananda
Victorious
Kidss Educares
is an institution with a difference, which prepares children to become once again
personalities of International recognitions and importance. We are preparing “Mentally
Enhanced Superiorly Created Futuristic Children (MESCFC)” of tomorrow – website
>
www.vkidss.org <.
The training for babies starts from pre-natal stage (From
the mother’s womb – Abhimanyu concept). We continue to train these children with
“Our Rich Heritage Of Vedanta And Western Science” to face an entirely different
and demanding world; decades from today. The education-caring will continue to guide
the children not only up to the Diploma Programme by IBO (International Baccalaureate
Organisation of Geneva (12th Grade), but also to initiate these children
into an exploring world of research and self-
inquiry right up to the Masters and Ph D. This would be by creating a place
like “NALANDA” – of yesteryears within Pune, India; an arena of International World
College scenario (like bringing in University of California & Los Angeles -
UCLA, University of San Diego UCSD, Harvard, Boston or ‘North Western Edu’ of Chicago).
Through a series of visions as visualised in deep meditation),
the concept of birth of a Vedantic institution giving the best of latest and western
education, led to, once again, conceptualising the rebirth of our ancient heritage
of ‘Nalanda’.
We need schools, which are “Challenging for the
Human Brain” and are yet exciting to go to. Where learning is not a pain and where
teachers are trained facilitators, who develop :
Each child into
what he or she truly is – ‘a genius’. Remember Vivekananda’s guidance to us - “Every person is born divine? Our children should
start with the discovery “I AM THE ONE -
AHAM BRAHMASHMI
”.)
The deepest desire
in all parents’ heart is to see ones child achieve success in life. To
make this happen a group of educators and neuroscientists from the western world
of present time - such as Glenn Doman
and others discovered that education must begin at birth.
Buckminister Fuller
, renowned early brains develop mentalist, says:
“All children are
born genius and we take the first six years of their life degeniusing them.”
Victorious Kidss Educares with the fore knowledge of stress
in children and problems of the present educational system; had been looking for
a board of education, which could help children learn not for the sake of learning,
but for the love of learning. International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) with
it’s headquarter in
Geneva
, has presented such opportunities for the children of the world. Education at Victorious
Kidss Educares, is an inquiry based learning in which the child learns what &
when she wants to learn at her own pace.
The International Baccalaureate Organisation aims to develop
inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and
more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. Towards this
end, IBO works with schools, governments and international organization to develop
challenging programme of international education and rigorous assessment. These
programmes encourage student to become active, compassionate and life long learners
who understand that other people with their differences can also be right.
“Anyone can count how many seeds are there in an apple, but can we count how many
apples are there in one seed?”
This beautiful statement of
Ralph Waldo Emerson
enlightens us of the immense potential, which is hidden in every child.
Rabindranath Tagore
believed,
“Every
child comes with the message that God is not yet tired of Man”;
Implies that all children are born in the images of God,
and not, as we think, in the images of the parent.
All great thinkers, educators and spiritual leaders have
come out with the same truth.
Swami Vivekananda
in his message to the world, under the heading of
“Philosophy of education”, a century ago, had displayed his realisation
that
‘Education is the manifestation of perfection already in man’.
He had reiterated and had guided us all; that ‘knowledge is inherent in man, no
knowledge comes from outside’.
We send children to school today, to get educated. We
do this primarily to let the children learn how to do the
5 Rs:
Read
(W)Rite,
(A)Rithmatics
Responsibility
to Our Country & Family
Research Skill
But If we do a careful study, we can all see that; due
to immense peer and academic pressures from the school, our children end up doing
just the opposite. Our children do not get that free scope for growth. The curious
bright child of yours and mine, enter schools with billions of questions in their
mind; but by the end of the 10th standards of school system, develops
a hatred for same
Reading
, wRiting and aRithmatic. What good is this system of education?
Amartya Sen,
after being awarded the Economics Nobel Prize, was asked by the then Prime Minister
Atal Bihari Vajpayee, “Why is our country’s economy down?” The Nobel Laureate had
replied, “Successive Governments have neglected ‘the early child education, and
thereby experienced lack of human resource; and hence the poorer economy.
Swami Vivekananda
continues with his wisdom for the future of ‘Mankind’,
“You
cannot teach a child anymore than you can teach a plant how to grow!” Plant
develops its own nature. The child also develops its own nature. The child teaches
itself. We help the plant by loosening its soil, by providing the right manure,
sunlight and protect it until it grows.
Same way, we can help the child by creating an environment
of learning freedom. Where children learn to think, wonder, inquire, into this big
world outside of him.
At VKE, we create an environment, where your child learns
to love to learn everything, and does it over and over again to show you how well
he does it.
Here, we create a home away from home for every child.
We are here to help children and families to discover the vast potential that every
child is born with. The school is very attractive and is the best party in town
for the children of all age groups.
We welcome you to our world of learning, to the world of children of Victorious
Kidss Educares
with delightful spiritual characteristics, for which we all love children. Visit
us.
Best Wishes to the best teachers in this world “To our
Mothers”; and to our millennium Fathers & Grand Parents.
