Sources of Samskaras
The Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi
Man is endowed with physical, mental and spiritual
power. Samskaras obtained from time to time enable him to be aware of
these powers. He uses these powers in order to develop a well integrated
personality. The child starts getting education through samskaras. "Samskara"
is a sublimating, ennobling process which removes ignorance. The Gurukulam
has designed many simple and small practices that create good samskaras
for the students. Some of them are:
Patriotism
Observance of all National days, celebrating the Birthdays of National
Heroes and Freedom Fighters to inculcate patriotism in the students.
Physical Development
Yogasana, Surya Namaskar and other physical exercises
and games provide the students with the knowledge and skills to
develop their physical fitness and the discpline to practice it
