The family scouting program

In the above stated quote by the Ascended Master Meru three main goals are highlighted: the key aspect of education and upbringing children is the developing the qualities of the heart, preparing parents for their important mission of upbringing children and establishing harmonious interaction between parents, teachers and the sponsors in the developing of children.
A special family scouting program was developed to bring this program to life and was successfully launched in the summer of 2024 in Gelendzhik. Now we intend to make it an annual event. It is an exciting and unique family program which combines hiking and spiritual practices.
The program is being implemented in the harmonious scouting rhythms: one step, two and tree… strength, understanding and kindness – hike, retreat and friendship.
The days of intense hiking along the picturesque mountain trails (the possible ones for children and even their grandparents) take turns with days of spiritual retreats and with days of joy and exciting excursions.
We walk along mountain streams, enjoy rejuvenating springs, soak up the energy of waterfalls, conquer mountain peaks, arrange soulful get-togethers around a campfire and try cooked on fire meals.
During the retreat, we conduct joint activities for children and their parents: we sing mantras, participate in creative spiritually focused workshops, gather for friendly singing, stage puppet shows on Buddhist themes, organize sun dances, play communication games and watch psychological films with ethical lessons in them.
The program includes time for adults to practice meditations, read the decrees together, listen to lectures by Elizabeth Clare Prophet and the dictations of the Ascended Masters, and also take useful lessons on raising children. And, of course, we find time for swimming in the sea every day.
