Children in Cleveland

Alexis was right, a hundred times over, when he said that the main target of Cleveland would be our children.

My husband and I have just received a letter inviting us to enroll our children in the seminar. It is accompanied by a separate letter intended to convince our children's teachers of the merits of their absence from school during those few days.

Here are a few excerpts:

-- Letter to parents

"This seminar is a rare opportunity to expose your child to a diverse world. Environment created by the physical presence of the Master and many abhyasis of the world will have profound and lasting effects on the children. Adding a high-quality program for children under the dual aspect of education and entertainment will not fail to make it an unforgettable experience for all participants (…). It is our hope that your school will consider favourably your request and that your Children will be allowed to be absent from school to attend the seminar. "

-- Letter to teachers

"The purpose of such an event is in its very title. Meditation is increasingly recognized as having an impact on the development and personal integration of individuals, in their families, in their workplaces and in the society. By participating in this event, you can count on a personal experience and cultural experience for students, whatever their age or their interests. "

Elodie adds:

It is therefore not enough for them for having recruited and then broken us . They also need to ensnare our children.

Recall the earlier comment of Alexis:

Alexis said…

Offensive The Children

The main target of Cleveland 2008, it is the children…

"We invite abhyasis to bring their children to this event conducive. Meeting place, Cleveland, offers a choice of indoor or outdoor activities for the children."

Teachers and professionals have prepared various programs of activities that range from field trips of science projects, to yoga, dance or workshops (crafts, photos, films, and so on.).

There will be specific programs for adolescents (13 years and older), tweens (9-12 years), elementary (5-8 years) and a kindergarten for the young ones.

Children will receive a certificate of participation and parents can obtain in advance the program of activities "in order to obtain the permission to be absent" from school.


NOTA BENE:


The studies done on MEDITATION were not conducted on cults or groups that practice "OBEDIENCE to a GURU" or on a CULT of PERSONALITY with all the trappings of the dogmas and rituals of RELIGION, but on non-religious MEDITATION to empower the individual. This religious focus on Children is contrary to what Babuji, the founder of Sahaj Marg and the SRCM, taught. It is what he warned about!!

SEE the TEACHINGS of the VBSE (Value Based Spiritual Education) in the SRCM schools:

This evangelical "come-on" to increase the numbers misrepresents MEDITATION!
