Transform the students by making them more aware

Transform the students by making them more aware

You are Hanuman
Conceptually Hanuman is the mind. Rama is the soul, it is the surrender of mind to soul. Matter to spirit, Hanuman is power personified. The Hanuman in is fearlessness and doing what comes naturally to us, maintaining a balanced and steady approach. Identify your latent potential, realize the Hanuman in you.

Swami Akshara

One may have all the knowledge but not clarity one may know a lot and yet understands nothing. There is a difference between knowing and understanding. Not knowing difference between these leads to confusion.
To transform the students a teacher needs to change his thinking for this we need to make them aware of their emotions like malice, jealous, anger and pride. They need to look these emotions in themselves and learn to control them or release them in a positive manner.

1 Awareness helps in transforming the people by understanding the consequences all the aspects of the situation and aids to the right decision. 
2 With awareness students can make better use of their negative energies.
3 Awareness helps in seeing beyond the situation.

It can be achieved by keeping relaxed and unconditional love.

Let there be a choice to be relaxed 
Let the students be aware that stress limits them only to one option whereas relaxation gives many options. Choose the best for yourself out of many options.
Never be judgmental, you may become the victim of your judgments. Judgment again gives ont option only, either this or that.  

(Teachers should not be judgmental. It has many a times seen that students who do not do well in their younger years do wonders later on or the very bright student of the younger years may not achieve very high goals).
The danger of judgment is that you stop seeing the object of judgement and you are more in your judgement.

If you meet the child whom you had judgmental in his early life, do you still judge him from your memory lane that he had been duffer, idiot, dud, dodo etc.or you will change your judgment.
How to make awareness?
Be alert about your nasty emotions (anger) sadist nature like do we drink dirty water
Do not allow such emotions. There is a sufficient time between the sensations to the response. Utilize that time to convert your impulse or reduce the intensity of it by associating the situation with (never react, always respond).

Some humours episodes or divert the currant in positive direction.
Be very aware or alert of negative emotions even make the students aware of it.
Let the negative emotions come and go don’t identify with them.
Do not allow yourself to participate with them if you will involve with them they will deplete your energy.
Punishment
(The punishment depletes the energy of both the parties the teacher and the taught).
It becomes harmful and heavy punishment makes the students life complicated, never compare students. There are individual differences.
If a teacher goes on comparing, the life of the child becomes miserable. If you want to ask a child as successful as others ask him to learn from them. let them learn to appreciate others.
Comparison can never allow a child to enjoy the success of others and appreciate others. No one can have all the good qualities, nobody can be the best all the time. Someone will always be better tha you at some level. Do not whip the child with comparisons; instead inspire them by the success of others. Inculcate the habit of enjoying the competition.
Does not your hand tremble as you slap a child?
Does not your heart miss a beat when you witness the gory scenes of gloom (gloomy face of the child?) 
Embrace humanity and learn to love you are no different from all other.
The students who have beaten by you all might tomorrow be your own son.
The test of teachers tolerance and patience comes when she’s in a bad mood or the class room situation is bad or there is a chaos in the class or the students of her class are naughty.
Bad listeners
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it. Aristotle
All the students are guided by their original qualities of which there is no duplicate of the same.
A teacher who is disturbed is also angry. He seems angry with his life. He is frustrated to others. He is panic to achieve goals soon. He does not want to apply techniques of teaching to reach the minds of various students. At times they themselves are not aware what is missing in them.
Needs: a healthy attitude. Attitude creates attitude.
How to have a healthy attitude?
Apply A B C technique
A- Is for attitude, open and explorative
B- B- is for having a belief which is powerful
C- C is to bring in caring energy
Talk to yourself: actions are an expression of one’s thoughts and thoughts are an expression of one’s belief system. To change ones actions, it is necessary to change ones thoughts and to change ones thoughts one must change ones belief. The source of one’s action is belief.

How to change the belief system?

Whenever a negative belief comes, kick it off like you kick a ball towards the goal. Your goal should be both successful and satisfied. Keep this thought always and do not allow the student to shake you.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Ask questions what’s the reason. A conversation is a fair exchange of thoughts not a monologue. Don’t tell them what not to do. Tell them what to do. Teach them mistakes are a natural part of growing up. Ti err is human but don’t repeat them. Don’t expect too much or too little. Don’t demand perfection, it paralyses healthy growth of the individual.

Let Go technique 
Breathe. Let go and remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure. Oprah Winfrey
If a child does not perform as per the teachers expectations it upsets her and the teacher gets frustrated The teacher as well as the child suffers. Understand the link between your expectations and your frustration as well as the result of this process.
(Whenever you expect something to be a certain way)
But when you let go your expectations, when you accept the child as he is, you are lighten up. Learn to be calm. Have a certain set of attitude.
Cultivate awareness 

Make the students aware that the result you achieve will be in direct proportion to the effort you apply.
Self motivation patience, tolerance reason out
Support the rights of the students they will listen to you.

Relax please
A mind filled with tension and unhappiness is the result of a toxic centre, such a mind creates problems for self and others. In contrast, a mind which is relaxed and happy comes from a nourishing centre. Transforming a toxic centre into a nourishing centre is the hallmark of wisdom
