#SanskritPanchatantra
To completely understand and appreciate #Panchatantra, it is necessary to read the sub-stories in the context in which they appear in the main story. This is an effort to present Panchatantra in that original format
With this, we have reached the 1st milestone of this project which was started more than an year back. Thanks to all the children who have participated in this, who often memorized the stories and recited them perfectly to the camera.

THREAD: Things to do or start during the 2020 pandemic or home time:

1/ PRANAYAMA - Deep breathing through the nasal passage has an immensely calming effect. Try it.

“The Breath is Strength” (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 5.14.4).

breathmeditation.org/the-hindu-trad…
2/ BINDI: Just do it. Wear it.

Do you live in the west and go to work daily and not wear a #bindi? Start now and make this work at home time to wear it always.
3/ YOGA - Give it a try. And it's not just poses. It's far more than that. There are many types and perhaps we can spend some time learning more about it.

"The Bhagawad Gita enumerates
Asthanga Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Gyana Yoga, and Karma Yoga."
