Dec 12 2021 HTS Balvihar Class

Namaste Balvihar Families, 
We have arrived at our last teaching class for 2021,  the one before Midterms. This is a good time to check with your student, if they are prepared for the midterms and up to date with their homework.
Your teachers may have scheduled the midterms for a different date based on how they plan their syllabus or due to other travel reasons. Please communicate with your teacher to be informed.
 Request : 
Please encourage your child to be turning their camera on and chant the mantra. When Balvihar starts next year, it will help if they are practicing their shloka. The value of attending Balvihar comes from immersing through the process sincerely.

Satsangh : 
14th December is Gita Mahotsav on Mokshada Ekadashi. Many ages ago, on this day Lord Krishna started the discourse of explaining Arjuna the revelation that is Bhagavad Gita. 
Gita - Song, Bhagavad - The Lord's. Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, The Respectful Song of the Lord. This 700 verse scripture holds the questions and answers that any human can have during the course of their life. 
In Sanskrit, we refer it as Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, because the Shrimad prefix conveys high degree of respect. Shrimad Bhagavatam, on the other hand is a Purana - history, dealing with the life of various avatars of Bhagawan Vishnu. 
Just to be able to access it, understand it and apply it is a proof that one did good Karma in our last birth. Let us all strive to be the best version of ourselves.

  Reminder : This Saturday Dec 18th will be your last day to drop your gift in our temple library for the children patients of LVH Reilly or bring it with you on Dec 19th 1:30 - 2 pm Drop off.  You may also purchase it from their wish list, but please remember to inform us at htsbalvihar@gmail.com, so that we may reflect it in our form.

Namaste,
Hope you are taking care of yourself and your family as our weather changes towards Winter. A steady intake of warm food, warm water and happy thoughts will definitely make a difference! Even though we are very flexible in how our online classes work, we are strict about whether a Balvihar student attends just religion or language, skips Morning Mantra and Satsangh regularly. This is not the best way to get the benefit of Balvihar, so please help us raise a disciplined Balvihar environment.
I have few very important items to discuss in this email, so kindly pay attention.

1)  In our interactions with few School Teachers, and staff I have come to this realization that, there is an unprecedented spike in student and adult mental health. I am hearing about many kids suffering from depression, hurting themselves and rampant eating disorder. We will be discussing that in our Balvihar, so we request parents to attend the morning assembly and afternoon Satsangh to join us as we heal our community and make our families stronger.
           

2) Reach out to us if you have any questions about syllabus, your student not being able to connect or is not able to do their homework, classwork or may be not being challenged. Every child and family is different and many families are going through variety of issues because of which we are not able to function the way we would in a regular year. This is also true for our teachers who are volunteers and youth teachers who are preparing for college and students. We are here to help you. My number is 610 390 9316.

3) Midterms are on Dec 19th, we have booked a slot with Lehigh Valley Hospital from 1:30 - 2 pm to drop off our donations for "Diwali to Christmas" so if you wish to join us please do so, but be punctual. This is the link for you to pick an item of your choice.
https://www.myregistry.com/organization/lehigh-valley-reilly-children-s-hospital-allentown-pa/2543371/giftlist.  Let us know if you have contributed online, so that we may reflect that in our donation form. Hindus, Sikhs, Jains contributing to local organizations is something we need to let our community know.
You may also drop it in our Temple Library, we will take that to the drop off as long as it has been put there before Dec 19th. 

 Satsangh :  We will discuss how our families spend time together to destress and connect. Please join us to share your fun ideas!
