  14th Day Diary Date: 31.01.2022                              Day: Tuesday Started day with dream-sleep meditation at 7.30. I had a new experience and felt fresh. It rejuvenated me and my thought. Later on, I went to school for some educational and writing work. At school, I finished my syllabus for 11 commerce and science. Further, I was doing the practice and revising the grammar section. On the last day, I was supposed to take my Tamil class. But I took it easygoing and forgot it. I thought to need to revise some of my schedules and reset them to learn them. However, I just shared all of these and postponed it naturally. After that, I never kept learning seriously. That became a part of my nature and life. The evening was also a little free, but I didn’t utilize it fruitfully. I had some time a series of questions before me. These w...

I guided my students and also worked upon my routine. I kept thinking over my skills and thinking patterns. Though I was educated and well-versed yet confused and uncontrolled.                 The entire day I was thinking about my education and its usage. Still, I didn’t have the clarity and ability to channel my thinking properly. Simultaneously, I spent the day leisurely and wordlessly. In the evening, I went for a walk and saw a herd of peacocks while walking. Therefore I didn’t disturb them and just observed them. They were in a group and grazing there.   It seemed to me that they conveyed directly that they s...

  On Tuesday, I had a problem-solving task in the class at T. N. PATEL PTC College. So, I began discussing with the students what problems they had. Many of them shared nothing with me. That's why I decided to share a story with them named Crack Mind from Japanese Literature. Then   I interacted with them and paved them to some of the examples.   Further, I distributed a list of the problems to them and asked them to prepare a list of solutions. At first, they were indeed into the thought process. Slowly and gradually, they came to share their problem and solutions. On observing and seeing them, I concluded that they got realization the importance of thinking based method for not only them but also their children. In the end, they ended with positive affirmation and had their recess. I thought hopeful that they would have enjoyed the session. By Haridas Patil (Blogger, Educator and Trainer)
