Maharishi Kids Home Schools are places of imbibing Sanskaras : Brahmachari Girish Ji
BHOPAL (Maha Media): The two-day Maharishi Kids Home National Cultural Celebration 2025 wrapped up with excitement and joy at Maharishi Kids Home in Ayodhyanagar, Bhopal, on Tuesday. On the final day, young children from Maharishi Kids Home performed in colorful costumes, showing impressive confidence. Their performances touched the hearts of many in the audience, and some moments even brought tears of joy.
This celebration began with Guru Pujan and warm welcome of guests followed by Vedic chanting performed by Maharishi Vedic Pundits. The day also included a heartfelt welcome song by the students of Maharishi Kids Home, followed by bhajans and motivational songs.
During the closing ceremony, Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, Chairman of the Maharishi Vidya Mandir School Group, spoke about the importance of celebrating the children's performances. He highlighted that young children are innocent and learn quickly from what they are taught, which is their true strength. At Maharishi Kids Home, the focus is not just on practical skills and academic knowledge. While many parents want their children to learn English well, it is equally important to teach them values that can improve their lives. Children need these values to develop self-awareness, which helps guide their actions throughout life.
Girish Ji shared a Vedic saying, “Manasi Ekam, Vachsi Ekam, Karmani Ekam Mahatmanam,” meaning that a great and truthful person thinks, speaks, and acts in harmony. Our goal is to raise children to be those true individuals, not ascetics. We want them to imbibe good Sanskaras and qualities while reducing less desirable traits and ensuring honesty in all their actions.
In 1990, Maharishi Ji encouraged us to open Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools across the country. Today, we have over 200 MVM schools in India, and seven years ago, we started Maharishi Kids Home, with plans to grow this number to 200 in very near future.
Brahmachari Girish Ji also noted that our social culture is changing for the worse, making it important for every parent and family member to help ensure that our educated children grow into cultured citizens, full of divine values. Their lives should be ideal, contributing to a better society. To achieve this, we launched the Maharishi Aadarsh Bharat Abhiyan ten years ago, and it was relaunched on August 25 this year. Our efforts aim to build an ideal India so that when children grow up, they find a supportive environment. We must work together toward this goal, as negative influences have to be removed at all cost. It is crucial to raise children with cultural values, guiding them to practice daily worship, meditation, and yoga, which will help them improve.
On August 25, we launched the Maharishi World Plan, which has attracted participation from 52 countries so far. If 100 countries join by the upcoming Vijayadashami, we will organize a world-level conference, Girish Ji added.
Brahmachari Girish Ji thanked all the parents of the children at Maharishi Kids Home, reminding them how fortunate they are to have chosen Maharishi Sansthan for their children's education. He also praised the teachers for their role in nurturing the children's growth.
Shri V R Khare, Director CPR addressed the gathering, praising the beautiful and impressive performances of the children over the two days. The entire program was rich in cultural values, mentioning that the children of Maharishi Kids Home know the Gayatri Mantra and the Bhojan and Snan Mantras, which is truly remarkable. He reiterated Girish Ji's wish to instill Indian values in all children at school level. This was the fifth national level cultural celebration of Maharishi Kids Home, which started in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic. He commended all parents for encouraging their children to participate and praised venue principal Anjali Singh for her caring approach and excellent management of the program.
At the end of the event, Brahmachari Girish Ji presented prizes to the children for their outstanding performances.
