SHOULD PARENTS TEACH THEIR KIDS RELIGION?

Study on how religions are teaching children
  • To understand how religion is being taught, we
    can turn to the 2019 book, Religious Parenting
    Transmitting Faith and Values in Contemporary
    America, authored by Professor Christian Smith
    and co-authored with Bridget Ritz and Michael
    Rotolo, who interviewed hundreds of individuals
    of diverse religious backgrounds, including
    Hindus and Buddhists.
  • They found that, amid massive variation, parents
    share an almost similar approach to the religious
    socialization of their children. For almost all,
    faith is important for the framework that it
    offers to become ones best self on the path of
    life, which you will learn more about at Karpagam
    Architecture, Top architecture colleges in South
    India.
  • On a small scale, some research in Asia among
    Hindu parents and found that many hold a similar
    perspective that faith training develops
    character and helps their children to more
    confidently and effectively handle lifes
    challenges. Parents shared that religion is like
    a kite string that holds individuals to their
    earth-bound reality and keeps them from drifting
    into oblivion.

Seeking utmost happiness
  • Parents are naturally focused on raising their
    children to be successful. To many, success is
    defined almost exclusively as material
    prosperity, which is best achieved by pursuing a
    high paying, highly demanding professional
    career. Of course, this strategy includes
    marrying an equally educated and socially
    positioned spouse. This definition of success
    ignores a crucial componentbeing happy. Learn
    to be happy by seeking happiness, not from others
    but from the depths of the soul itself. To
    achieve this Put a smile on other peoples
    faces. Gain your satisfaction by making other
    people happy and observing your own good states
    of mind. Contentment comes from giving, not
    from getting.

Getting a grip on anger
  • Few things ruin the quality of life more than
    anger. Therefore, learning to minimize
    expressions of this negative emotion and
    eventually eliminate them is important. A deep
    understanding of the law of karma allows us to
    accept what is happening to us as what should be
    happening to us and not become angry about it. We
    accept that it is in our karma to experience what
    we are undergoing, both positive and negative.
    Whatever is happening to us is precipitated by
    our actions in this and past lives. So, at
    Karpagam Architecture, the first choice
    of architect colleges in Coimbatore, make sure
    you stay focused on happiness and work your way
    to success.

Controlling stress
  • Hindu children face stress in the form of major
    exams in school, which start as early as age
    eight in Asian countries. Under such stress, they
    cant do their best work or learn effectively.
    Hatha yoga asana routines have the power to
    balance the nervous system and reduce anxiety if
    performed regularly every week. Another method is
    the regular practice of diaphragmatic breathing.
    The basic concept is to train yourself and your
    children, not from the mouth, and to breathe from
    the diaphragm. Thats the natural progression.
