Shishu Vihar: Baby Steps to Divinity
Spiritual growth backed by psychology
Indian tradition emphasizes instilling values from the earliest stages of life, even before birth. Swami Chinmayananda’s childhood connection with Kerala saint Chettampi Swamigal reflects this, as he was exposed to sacred murmurs that nurtured his spirituality from infancy. Modern psychology supports this, revealing that 50% of brain neuropaths develop by age three—making it an ideal stage for spiritual growth.
Family Bonding
Accompanying parents or guardians take the rhymes and stories home and enjoy reading and singing them with their children and extended family so that the values are shared and reinforced. “Shishu Vihar is all about combining fun and interaction with values and wisdom that the kids will develop as they grow. It is a wonderful bonding time for the parents and their toddlers.”
