They not only help parents take better care of and educate their children, but also provide convenient methods and resources to support parents' parenting decisions.

An average star can be used to refer to a star that has properties that are typical of stars in general. For example, the Sun is often considered an "average star" because it has characteristics that are similar to those of other stars in terms of its mass, temperature, and luminosity. The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star, with a mass of about 1.989 x 10^30 kilograms, a diameter of about 1.4 million kilometers, a surface temperature of about 5,500 degrees Celsius (9,932 degrees Fahrenheit), and a luminosity of about 3.8 x 10^26 Watts.

By embracing the study of the Vedas, happiness, and evolution toward Cosmic Consciousness will unfold and increase our attainment of the state of Bliss Consciousness (BG 2.46)
You have control over action alone, never over its fruits. Live not for the fruits of action, nor attach yourself to inaction. (BG 2.47)
8. Dharma-kshetre kuru-kshetra
Assembled on the field of Dharma, on the field of the Kurus (BG 1.1)
9. Yogasthah Kuru Karmani
Established in the Self, perform action. (BG 2.48)
The Known Self
Do your allotted duty. Action is indeed superior to inaction. Even the survival of your body would not be possible without action. (BG 3.8)
In performing action one feels no strain
The action must not be a burden in life
In one stroke the action maintains life and leads to evolution
Our TM practice supports Yagya, which helps us establish the Self and unites our actions with the Absolute
10. Why does one suffer? (how the BG got started)
Knowledge is a prerequisite for any creation
The Vedas are an eternal aspect of knowledge
Birds of the same feather, flock together
The nature of life must be happiness and not suffering because everyone runs from suffering
Action based on the state of non-rest will never be fulfilling
11. Absolute Dharma
Upholds our Individual Dharma
"A man has in himself everything he needs to rise to any height of perfection."(BG 6.5)
Because one can perform it, one’s own Dharma, (though) lesser in merit, is better than the Dharma of another. Better is death in one’s own Dharma: the Dharma of another brings danger. (BG 3.35)
"God helps those who help themself”
"Support of nature spontaneously comes as we grow in the knowledge of the Self"
By solving the problem from the root, it becomes easy to handle and the entire problem can be erased.
The cause of weakness is the lack of unbounded awareness and lack of knowledge of the Self. Ignorance of one's Self is the basis of all problems.
The first thing a person notices when they dive into their Self is freedom from everything. Everything dissolves in the ultimate reality.
