Children from ages 5 to 12 years are catered
for every Saturday Night when the program is held at the temple.
The students are happily engaged in hearing stories from Maha Bharata
and reciting mantras from Bhagavad-gita, ancient scriptures which
teach honesty, purity, integrity and spiritual upliftment.
For
Festivals such as Janmasthami, the children enact dramas and sing
devotionally for the pleasure of the Lord and all those assembled.
Some of the students have been together for many years have developed
great talent and now are becoming responsible to put on dramas by
themselves.
The
children have made good friendships based on their attachment to
Krishna and encourage each other to regard their spiritual culture.
They also have a lot of fun together, especially when we have retreats.
In the future we would like to have a youth forum
to satisfy our young adults. If your children wish to join in, please
email Taraka@in.com.au for
further details.
