How It All Started...
While our Dear AMMA was in San Ramon in November, 2005, Santhosh and Jayashree asked AMMA's permission to start Amrita Bal Kendra (Spiritual Class) in Los Angeles. AMMA has given her Blessings to proceed with classes for ABK. AMMA puts a lot of value and emphasis in similar efforts since the children are the flag bearers of the future. It is important that children grow up with the right kind of values and understanding, which will make them stronger to face the future.
The Balkendra class will focus on sharing the values AMMA wants us all to have. There are a few of AMMA's children who have graciously agreed to do this seva. We are immensely indebted to everyone who has offered to help with this program. Once the curriculum has been developed for the first semester, the teachers will be trained before the classes start. AMMA encourages parents and interested adults to attend the classes as well.
Parent/Adult classes will be held at the same time as the children's classes in a separate room. AMMA says that with this approach, the parents are aware of what is being taught and can help their children understand better, should they have any difficulties with the curriculum. As per the instructions from M.A. Center, there will be a nominal charge for these classes. The fees have not yet been decided, but will be set by the M.A. Center to provide coursework material and other classroom expenses. Classes will be held four times a month, at a location convenient to where we have the most children. We will be sharing stories from scriptures and inspirational books that AMMA has suggested.
