"Balvikas is the primary basis of the great movement to restore righteousness (dharma) in the world. The ideal of the Balvikas is to raise a generation of boys and girls who have a clean and clear conscience. Children must be led into good ways of living, into simplicity, humility and discipline. As you know, you cannot draw children to your side if you hold a stick in your hand; you will have to hold some sweets instead. So the gurus have to be embodiments of love and patience. The actual syllabus is not so important as the creation of an atmosphere where noble habits and ideals can grow and fructify. The pupils follow Balvikas discipline and curriculum only for one day in the week and attend their usual schools on the other days. So the impact of the guru has got to be extra strong if it has to act as a catalyst in the process of modification of the behavioral patterns of these children." BABA ~Divine Discourse, Jun 6, 1978.
"Guide the children in the spiritual path, through simple and moral living; Install in the young minds, the importance of duty, devotion and discipline; Help them understand the five human values, so that they can practice these in their daily lives; Guide them to Love all and Serve all. In short help them grow into worthy citizens to serve the world; identifying the divinity present in all. Parents should take up the responsibility of molding the character of children who, in turn, shape the destiny of the nation." -Baba.
"Teachers! Teach your young pupils the ideals of Bharat's great sages, heroes and heroines, who upheld the highest virtues and set an example to the world. They should be taught to behave as ideal sons like Shravanakumar. One good son can redeem a whole family. Ekalavya exemplifies supreme devotion to the Guru. Prahladha should be held out as a supreme example of total faith in God. Teachers should instil such devotion to God in the young. Teachers should also make children realise the true purpose of education. Education should be a preparation for righteous living and not for earning money. Good qualities are more valuable than money. Sathyabama was made to realise that the Name of the Lord and a Tulasi leaf offered to Him were more valuable than all her jewels when weighed in the balance for Krishna. Teachers should practise the precepts they teach to the children." - Divine Discourse, Jul 22, 1994. - Baba.
"Teachers should not trot out excuses, based on material considerations, to shirk or by-pass their essentially spiritual task of 'education’. They must bear trials and tribulations, with calm content, and do their work even more efficiently, so that God will reward them, and society will learn to revere them all the more! The world honours the man who suffers gladly, far more than the one who enjoys shamefacedly!"- BABA
