F- Friendship - Krishna Sudama story

Below is the prayer we were singing before story time

he krishna karuna-sindho dina bandho jagat pate

gopesha gopika-kanta radha-kanta namo 'stu te


O my dear Krishna, You are the friend of the distressed and the source of creation. You are the master of the gopis and the lover of Radharani. I offer my respectful obeisances unto You.

During the story time we discussed what friendship means and took the story of Krishna and Sudama to teach as an example of friendship to kids. The story will be continued next week from Krishna meeting Sudama in the palace.

We also revised Krishna's colors and Gajendra story.

Gajendra story and Bagavad Gita 7th chapter

Dear parents,

I am so happy to be back to tell stories to the kids.

For the last couple of weeks we have been discussing about the colors of Krishna and Gajendra story.

Also revising Bagavad Gita Slokas from 7th Chapter.

Below are the lyrics of the bajan which we are teaching in the class.


Govind mero hai Gopal mero hai
Banke bihari nandalal mero hai

charanan mein nupura jhanakari
Nanda yasoda ajava bihari
dinan pe sada doyal mero hai

Govind mero hai.. (refrain)

Braja mandal mein gaiyan charave
makhan chori luti dadhi khave
das tero dekhkan nihal mero

Govind mero hai... (refrain)


I will see you all again on sunday evening
