Jai Shri Mataji!

I was looking for a suitable timetable for Miss A to start our homeschooling program and found one online that suits us.  I modified it and here it is:

8.00am - Wake up, brush teeth, meditation (2 mins), breakfast

9.00am - Sun time (cycling, walking in the neighbourhood), bath

10.00am - Sahaj Knowledge

10.15am - English

10.30am - Phonics

10.45am - Maths

11.00am - Science

11.15am - Malay

11.30am - Mandarin

11.45am - Music / Art / Dance

12pm - End


Everyday, her actual academic session is between 10am to 12pm and every subject gets 15 minutes only.  You can adjust for longer time and modified according to your child.  As Miss A sometimes wakes up at 9am, we cram everything in 1 hour before we start school proper.  If she wakes up earlier, then we will do things leisurely.


Every morning after breakfast, we will sit at the altar and pranam and will say this prayer.  After that, we raise kundalini and bandhan and sit for 2 minutes meditation (or more).  Since she is 5 years old, I will ask if she can sit for 5 minutes.  Will increase 1 minute for each year until she can do on her own without me telling her to.

During sun time, we like to cycle or walk around the neighbourhood and pick flowers for Shri Mataji.  Recently Miss A received a portable swimming pool as a birthday present, so some days she will have an early morning swim before we start class.

After bath, I will ask her to pick her pyjamas and put for wash.  This are the little things to get her to do on her own.

Since her attention span for her age is short, we try to squeeze each lesson in 15 minutes.  Sometimes we do have time overrun and so we will end later.  However, we do noticed that Miss A has better attention span that most 5 years old.  She can sit for hours helping us to peel hundreds spring roll skin patiently.

After 12pm, we will have lunch and then break for the day.  In her kindergarten, the timetable is from 8am-12pm.  But they get a short break for toilet and snacks.  Here between 10-12pm, no breaks and just continuous class.  So far I find it suits her.  Adjust if you need to.  The main goal for us is not too academically based and incorporate some fun factor and not stray from Sahaja Yoga knowledge and to be discipline and responsible.

In the afternoon, she will either have a nap or play time or both.

In the next few posts, I will share what materials I have been using for her classes.

Have you look at Shri Mataji's bindi before?

The red dot on Her forehead?  We looked at Her beautiful face a lot but how often do we look at Her bindi? Past few days have been a struggle for me to get by.  I can't seem to think properly and having a tough time trying to rationalise and be balance.  It's not because of the recent happenings.  It has been accumulating from many, many nights before that.  Attention was all over the place.  I lost control of myself.  I don't know what I want to do.  I don't know how to move on.  I felt a little lost.  I think and think and think.  I tired myself out and finally declared that it's fatigue.   Last night, decided to pull myself together.  Sat in front of Shri Mataji's photo and just looked at Her big, round red bindi.  At first it was difficult.  Eyes wandering.  Then after some time, it was much better.  I managed to focus.  That's when a realisation came to me and I got all the answers fo...

Matka pot treatment - Night 1

I started the matka pot treatment last night.  Been feeling a lot of left agnya catch lately, so thought that it is high time to do a matka pot treatment.  Here is what we need: 7 limes (I heard in Belgium, they used 7 lemons, so the pot that they used is so big and they have a hard time trying to dispose the pot after the 7 nights).  Cut the top of the limes to expose a bit of the flesh. 7 chillies.  Remove the top of the chillies (I don't know what you call, stem or stalk).  I used small chillies so that they can fit into the matka pot. 1 matka pot (here in Malaysia we used claypot that they cooked claypot rice, glazed inside so that it will not leak) Vibrated water So, you put everything into the pot and vibrate in front of Shri Mataji's photo.  Pray that the matka pot will absorb all the catches and negativities.  Then place it on the left side of the bed.  I put it under the bed but you can also put it on a side table on ...
