EXPLANATION:
Give each child a paper and ask each child to write the lists of my world' and 'the world'. 'My world' is the world which comprises of your basic needs and 'the world' is which comprises of society, societal norms. Interpretation: Make the child understand about their basic needs and understand about 'my world' and 'the world'
First thing we have to understand is that there is no 'you' in 'you'. Whatever you understand or experience or feel as you in you is just some body's reflection in you. If it stays there for a long time you believe it is you and you are possessed by that identity.
We pick some identity from mom, some desires from being mom, some desires from being dad and some from friends and society. None of these desires are desires of our own. Whatever we have more, we create our identity out of it.
We create a broom of our identity by collecting broom sticks of desires and identity from others. We become imaginary images of others. We tie our broom with a silk thread. Silk thread is our decision making capacity. We make choices based on our desire which leads to suffering. Any choice will only lead to suffering. When we accept the happening the desire, choice and suffering all disappears
To make the children understand that we are the mixture of desires and identities of others.
- What do we have to understand by you?
- Do we have some body's reflection on us?
- What are the identities / desire you picked from your mom?
- What are the identities / desire you picked from your dad?
- What are the identities / desire you picked from your friends?
- What are the identities/ desire you picked from your relatives?
- How do we lose the identity? Why choosing is suffering?
