		<description><![CDATA[H.H. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, founder of the worldwide meditation movement called Sahaja Yoga, passed away peacefully on 23rd February 2011 in Genoa, Italy, aged 87. Shri Mataji’s life was unique.  Whether walking barefoot with Gandhi or conversing with the Queen of England, Shri Mataji addressed apparent extremes with effortless grace, dignity and loving attention.

		<description><![CDATA[We started formal homeschooling this January and we love every minute of it.  We don’t find it stressful at all and it’s so much fun.  The best part is when we read something and we get an idea for a fun activity.  For example, we went to a fair this weekend and Kabir got an idea that he wants to pretend that he is a news reporter and take notes.  It was so much fun.  I had no idea that learning can be so much fun.  I wish I was taught this way.

		<description><![CDATA[As a parent, it’s our job to see that our kids are equipped with all the necessary tools that they might need for a brighter future.  For example, we need to make sure that our kids are educated.  It helps if our kids have a dream so that we can help them and support them to pursue their dreams.  We need to make sure that we train them with social etiquettes so that they have a pleasant personality.

I had a strong desire to go to a meditation camp where all I’ll do is cleanse myself and meditate. Then I will be ready to come back recharged to enjoy this beautiful world more thoroughly.
