And guess what, for me, all the Sikh Gurus and their stories were brought to life by my neighbour's three grown up daughters (didis).

Thank you once again for this comment. xxArtihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455186909681790185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958886527937390919.post-24043432271344903862016-04-20T15:09:24.446+03:002016-04-20T15:09:24.446+03:00Beautiful!

The stories were so intriguing Kansa, gopis, makkhan chor, pootana, and the mahabharatha ( which my father told me.... And recently, my son chose him to do a study on for his blogging assignment, when he did the presentation dressed as Krishna, I could see the whole class was transfixed.. How can anyone be like Krishna? naughty, playful, wise, courageous, spiritual, fighter of justice and the list goes....... Thank you so much for writing about him...<br />ishmusings.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05225775727302994295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958886527937390919.post-38120536175501740482016-04-15T07:48:36.533+03:002016-04-15T07:48:36.533+03:00Thanks Seema.

So I can only take credit for this version of the explanation. I think I only changed the abstract notion of body and spirit to clothes and photos. But it worked and still does (even with adults). It's good to see you here. xxArtihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455186909681790185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958886527937390919.post-27046154313830472362016-04-15T07:45:05.221+03:002016-04-15T07:45:05.221+03:00Thank you msmatch.

Just like you look different in different clothes but you are still the same person. As a Hindu, I can choose which God I like and make him/ her my companion and friend and guide. Isn't that the point of Faith? To find a way to make the best versions of ourselves with a little help from a friend?"<br /><br />I think this is a great explanation.mshatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06308916014310536449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958886527937390919.post-42252812656703234662016-04-14T13:18:41.105+03:002016-04-14T13:18:41.105+03:00I learnt new reasoning on different Gods, tthat wi...I learnt new reasoning on different Gods, tthat will be easy to digest for my students, thank you for sharing.
