Balanced Parenting - 

Once Guruji went to a prison to teach Yoga and Meditation. There were about fifty prisoners and four wardens. Guruji spent few hours interacting with each one of them. Later he begins teaching Yoga and Meditation. The event went on for more than a month. The warden was closely monitoring prisoners behavior. 

Prisoners do something, which the warden would tell whether it is right or wrong. The warden would say well and reward the prisoner with a smile if he does something that the warden expected, otherwise we would punish.

While concluding the event, the chief of the prison came and asked Guruji, Guruji, how are my prisoners, are they a reformed lot?


Guruji replied, “Your prisoners are dependent on the warden and his control to regulate their actions. They have lost their capacity to self-learn and self-regulation, they are totally dependent. They are mere puppet in the hands of the warden. I am surprised, who the warden is and who the prisoner is”.
