The Sacred Classroom

Close

“Who a teacher is impacts the classroom just as much as what she teaches. The presence of an aware and yet, a very loving teacher is a precious gift to children” – Jayashree Ashok

“The first thing to do, in order to be able to educate a child, is to educate oneself,
to become conscious and a master of oneself so that one never sets a bad example to one’s child.”
The Mother

It is time for a new beginning in how we approach education, teaching, learning and our work with children. It is time to reclaim a sense of Sacred in our classrooms! Who a teacher is, has a strong impact on the classroom. A teacher’s inner being, presence and energy in the classroom impact the learning environment. The Sacred Classroom, created by Jayashree Ashok, honours a teacher’s journey in class and acts as a guidepost for the evolution of consciousness in him/her and in the classroom. The Sacred Classroom provides the foundational seven spiritual principles for teachers to practise and centre themselves in. This helps bring the sacredness into a classroom and support unhindered, pure learning. This also brings about deep awareness and transformation in who the teacher is and on how teaching and learning happens. Consistent application of these principles keep our ways of functioning pure and effective.
