MY WISDOM BOOK: Everyday Shlokas, Mantras, Bhajans and More

In a fast-paced, rapidly
changing world, children struggle to cope with the sheer multiplicity of
stimuli and expectations. It could get overwhelming for the still-developing
minds of the young. How do we get them to pause for a moment? What will help
them take on challenges calmly?

Swami Mukundananda explains that one way to create a positive environment
is to introduce ancient Hindu verses in everyday life. Learning to recite the
shlokas and mantras equips children with timeless wisdom that shapes their
character.

My Wisdom Book draws on the timeless knowledge of scriptures to explain
ancient Hindu wisdom in a fun, easy and entertaining way for beginners. The
book is packed with 75 Sanskrit and Hindi verses, including transliterations
in English, with explanations, and encourages kids to include the practice of
reading and chanting into their daily lives.

Divided into two age-appropriate levels—Juniors (ages 3–9) and Seniors (age
10 upwards)—the book has separate sections for daily shlokas, mantras, simple
bhajans and learnings for each level. Approachable and easy-to-understand,
the text is designed to be read together with parents and grandparents by
juniors, and by older kids on their own. Beautifully illustrated by Rayika
Sen, this handy book is the perfect gift for festivals, religious ceremonies,
birthdays, or indeed any time at all!
