Development of different domains in Children

Mind

Mind is an essential tool that creates sense of individuality. We build relationships with the rest of the world and perceive it with our mind. According to the yogic tradition our mind has different hierarchical levels. Our perception of the world depends on the level at which Mind  functions.

Body

Body is the physical illustration of consciousness. We have a beautiful body, and each cell of our body has its own mind and consciousness. Meditation has the power of transforming our body, its constituents, and its functioning.
