In yoga it is considered that the most great luck, it to be born in family of the yogi or a yogina. Or better still, both yoga, and yogin. At the same time it is emphasized that to be born the only son of the billionaire, this far smaller happiness! What it is connected with?
The main thing, than parents yogis in relation to the child are guided, it is the principle of freedom. You should not confuse with permissiveness! It is already an extreme. And does not accept any extremes of the yogi.
Other extreme is a total control. In family where practice such style of education, each step of the child is traced, any freedom, everything is counted by parents in advance. Often for many years ahead. In such situation the child has no slightest chance to show the nature, not to mention that harmoniously to develop it!
Why the principle of freedom is given such value in family of yogis? Because people who practice ancient knowledge consider freedom the highest value. And the child who at them was born will never be considered by the property. They realize that the child is soul which came to them, and it already has the nature. It should help to realize that potential which is already available.
In yoga it is also spoken about the fact that the fact that soul was born in your family, she delegated to you powers to direct it. Also our task is to preserve the child against commission of nonsenses, and against what can do much harm to it.
In certain situations it will be necessary to show severity, to apply punishment. In education the parents yogis look at each situation from a position as any given behavior, any given act will affect freedom of the child. We should preserve the kid, but not to impose and not to order him!
It is important to be able to make friends with the child. That to achieve it, it is necessary to be as equals, i.e. to respect living position and the choice of the child, to accept him it what it is. If the child shows interest in certain spheres, it is necessary to help it to reveal itself in them. Thus, it is possible to learn in what the child is talented what to aspire his soul to.
To be able to agree with the child, to become him another happens not simply, but it is very important in family relationship.
