KAILASA

Hinduism is the most ancient, most peaceful, still-living and long-lasting demonstrable system that shows the possibility of peaceful co-existence amongst people despite fundamental differences in their preferences and realities.

Over the last 50 years, the effects of meditation and its significant impact on stress, crime rates, violence, political decision making and even war in local and global consciousness is well established.

Hinduism was once practiced freely in over 56 nations across the continent from Afghanistan, India, Nepal, Burma, Sri Lanka, all the way to Singapore, Malaysia, and Cambodia and Indonesia, and in 200 states, 1700 samasthanas (provinces) and 10,000 sampradayas (traditions).

The KAILASA with de facto spiritual embassies operating across over 100 countries and having presence across the globe as the largest spiritual knowledge source on Hinduism is spiritually governed with the life positive, all-inclusive, universal policies sourced from Hinduism revived by The SPH Nithyananda Paramashivam.

Having enriched and enreached more than one billion individuals over the past 27 years the KAILASA raises the voice to protect Hindus, defend Hindus and preserve the Hindu narrative for the world.

OVERVIEW

Our Early childhood learning program is based on a process oriented curriculum that fosters each child's individual development. We emphasise the important role the BLISS curriculum plays through the development of the big picture, creativity and celebratory learning. The entire learning philosophy is founded on the principle that early childhood development must focus on the Bodily Kinaesthetic, Linguistic, Intuitive, Social Emotional, & Spiritual (BLISS) curriculum to ensure all-round development of the children.

The spontaneous learning is based on:

Recognising the need for children to practice skills and consolidate their learning by providing opportunities for repetitive experiences and extension of their ideas

Designing and establishing enriched activities that stimulate the imagination, promote creativity and enhance aesthetic development and appreciation of nature

Providing opportunities for discovery, learning through self-selected activities, and encouraging the development of the child's abilities to observe, perceive, explore, investigate, imagine and solve problems

Valuing the arts as symbol systems through which children discover and express meaning and make sense of themselves and the world around

Valuing play as a medium for all aspects of development and learning

Acknowledging and supporting children's individual learning styles

These books are specially designed to provide the children the right way of learning. This time tested and proven experiential learning methodology provides your child with a fun-filled opportunity to assimilate vast amounts of knowledge in a shorter time span.

WHOLE-BRAIN LEARNING FOR THE CHILD THROUGH THE BLISS CURRICULUM

BODILY KINAESTHETIC - Develop competence in using large and small muscles, taking care of and respecting our body, being aware of and practicing good nutrition habits, thereby develop overall physical fitness.

Added focus on oral and written communication skills, grammar rules, sensitivity to musical qualities and rhythms of words, uses for language such as persuasion, information or pleasure.

SPIRITUAL - The Spiritual Quotient, SQ is based on the third neural system in the brain, the synchronous neural oscillations that unify and integrate the data across the brain.
