A book is the best guide in a child's life



A guide is someone who leads a child to new paths while being the companion. He or she is a person who lets them discover their surroundings while they make them feel safe from any harm. They ensure that the child is getting appropriate learning experiences and provide guidance at every step.

Various stages in a child’s life, when he experiences things he has never experienced before, learning aspects of self and others that they are not aware of, requires a person whom they trust. Children need to believe that this person will keep them safe and provide them with any help necessary. It is at this tender age children require the sense of security which will enhance their way of dealing with their lives in the future.

A guide can impact the way a child’s attitude is formed. Attitude is learnt and observing and learning it from the right people is always beneficial. A guide can help a child maintain a positive attitude towards life and learn all that he or she can from their life experiences. A guide can also help the child develop qualities that will always help them be motivated in life and achieve as much success as they can.

Children should be encouraged to express feelings and ideas in a safe environment so that the guide can always monitor the child’s thoughts for any signs of negativity or anxiety. A guide will always have an important role in the child’s life, making him/her more comfortable to share their thoughts with the guide, learn more from them and voice their concerns.

Children look up to the important people in their lives, their parents, teachers, and guides. This helps them shape how they act in public places, making decisions which are difficult to make, or have and maintain relationships. Hence it is significant that these important people who are their role models should always hold that positive place in the child’s life.

Can I survive being a Gandhian today?



Having a strong belief in the Gandhian philosophies, to be successful and lead a prosperous life through ideologies is possible. But in today’s world; will it really help you grow?
Gandhian vows have lost their meaning in the fast pace world and have undoubtedly become words known to our vocabulary but not practiced in our day to day life.
Sapna book house shares excerpts from books written on and by Mahatma Gandhi, to refresh our mind with his free spirit. You can grab a copy of any of his books from 14+ retails stores spread across Bangalore.

9 vows followed by Mahatma Gandhi are well explained in his books like Young India, Bapu’s letters to Mira, Yervada Mandir and so on.

Ahimsa is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the summum bonum of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact, it is their all. It does not come within the reach of coward. It is no wooden or lifeless dogma, but a living and life giving force. - Young India, Sept 6, 1926.

Truth should be Truth in thought, Truth in speech, and Truth in action. To the man who has realized this Truth in its fullness, nothing else remains to be known, because all knowledge is necessarily included in it. What is not included in it, is not truth and so not true knowledge. - From Yeravda Mandir, p. 2.

Non-stealing does not mean merely not to steal. To keep or take anything which one does not is also stealing. And of course, stealing is fraught with violence.- Bapu-ke-Aashirvad, November 24, 1944.

To hear suggestive stories with the ears, to see suggestive sights with the eyes, to taste stimulating food with the tongue, to touch exciting things with the hands, and at the same time to expect to control the only remaining organ, is like putting one's hands in the fire and expecting to escape being hurt. Bapu's letters to Mira. P.257.

When you dispossess yourself of everything you have, you really possess all the treasures of the world. In other words , you really get all that is in reality necessary for you., everything . If the food is necessary, food will come to you.- My Philosophy of Life, p. 138.

When you dispossess yourself of everything you have, you really possess all the treasures of the world. In other words, you really get all that is in reality necessary for you., everything . If the food is necessary, food will come to you.- My Philosophy of Life, p. 138.

Unless we are satisfied with foods that are necessary for the proper maintenance of our physical health and unless we are prepare to rid ourselves of stimulating heating and exciting condiments that we mixed with food. We will certainly not be able to control the over-abundant, unnecessary, and exciting stimulation that we may have. If we do not do that, the result naturally is that we abuse ourselves, and become less than animals and brutes. - Speeches & Writings of Mahatma Gandhi. p. 384

Fearlessness does not mean arrogance and aggressiveness. That in itself is a sign of fear. Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind. For that it is necessary to have a living faith in God. - Harijan, Nov. 3, 1946.

Religions have been interwoven. One sees a special quality in every one of them . But no one religion is higher than another. All are complimentary to one another .Since this is my belief, the specialty of any one religion cannot run counter to another, cannot be at variance with universally accepted principles. - Harijanbandhu, March 19, 1933.

Gandhism is a combination of ideas and principles that describes the stimulation, vision and the life work of Mahatma Gandhi. It is principally connected with his contributions to the idea of non violent resistance, sometimes also called civil resistance.

The two pillars of "Gandhism" were truth and non-violence. On his Birthday, its time you take a ride back into history and remember the Man of the Nation.
