Global Hindu Heritage is very happy to inform that we started about 150 Bala Samskar Kendras in nine States in Bharat and four in Bangladesh and also on in Conago.  The mission of these Centers is to teach about the richness of Hinduism, Hindu festivals, Hindu ethos, Hindu History, and culture and traditions. Sri Rajesh is a very active member in the community championing the Hindu Values not only to the children but also actively involved in making the Hindus proud of their culture.

Our Children are taught about the richness of our culture by teaching about various scriptures and the timeless wisdom found in them.  Our students will learn how Hindus conceive the abstract concept of God, their features, physical features and the divine qualities. We talk about the characteristics of Lord Rama, the attributes and his behavior and the qualities that we can emulate. Many of our Gods are incarnated at different times and we try to explain about different Avataras and the purpose of incarnating at a particular time.

What is Bala Samskar?
Our children are our strength. They are our future. They are going to be our Ambassadors to Hindu Dharma in preserving, protecting, and propagating our ancient civilization. For centuries, we as Hindus have failed to transmit knowledge to the next generations. With no knowledge about our faith and with no pride in the universality and non-violence of Sanatana Dharma, our children, as well as adults, have become targets for Christians to convert. They have used a plethora of deceptive tactics to woo our Hindus to Christianity as we are not able to defend our religion and also not able to question the barbaric nature of the Bible. We have become defenseless and not equipped with any knowledge about our heritage.
    Surya Namaskar is made into our syllabus where all our youngsters will do Surya Namaskar every Sunday for about 20 minutes. They also practice different types of Surya Namaskar such as Chaturanga Surya Namaskar, Ashtanga Surya Namaskar and so on. 

Why Surya Namaskar Asanas.
According to Sage Sushrutha (Master of Ayurveda), health is defined as
 "sama dosha sama agni scha sama dhatu mala kriyaaha|
Prasanna atma indriya manaha swastha iti abhidheeyate"

Translation: One is in perfect health when the Three doshas (vata, pitta and Kapha), metabolic fire (digestion, assimilation and transformation), all the bodily tissues & components (the entire physical body) all the excretory functions (urination, sweat, and defecation) are in perfect order with a pleasantly disposed and contented mind, senses and spirit.

There are twelve Asanas - one is taught standing in front of the sun in the morning wherever it is possible, it can be done other times facing east. Ten minutes of doing Surya Namaskar would have a dramatic effect on various aspects of one’s life. We all know that without sun, there is no life. Sun radiates energy and heat, without which there is no life. 

Why Children?
We all know that children are unable to concentrate on academics. While reading about the parts of a flower and understanding the composition of water, the mind  keeps slipping away for a little walk.
They are: Pranayama, Hastauttanasana, Padhastaasana, Ashwa Sanchalanasana, Parvtasana, Dandasana, Ashtanga Namaskar, Bhujangasana, Parvatasana, Ashwa Sanchalanasana, Padasastasan, Hastauttanasa.
