The Vancouver Sri Sathya Sai Community Centre endeavors to support the needs of the community through various spiritual, health and musical events. These include Health Workshops, Meditation Workshops, Dynamic Value Parenting Classes, Musical Performances as well as Interfaith conferences.
Dynamic Value Parenting Classes
Written by Drs Pal and Tehseen Dhall, the Dynamic Value Parenting workshops are based on the teaching of Sathya Sai Baba, and aim to bring out the core human values that are inherent in our children and in us. These interactive workshops aim to create a greater self awareness in parents of their own inner processes that affect parenting behaviors and relationships with their children. The result is a transformational process whereby we shift from unconscious, reactive parenting to a more conscious parenting based in human values. This fosters an environment in our homes and society whereby children learn to lead a joyful, happy life while building character skills they need to meet their personal and spiritual goals.
The workshops are held in 2 formats:
Four Saturdays (full day sessions 9am-5pm) or over 14 weeks (2hours /week on Sunday between 10am-12noon). The 14 week sessions are generally more transformational, but the 4 full days allow flexibility for those who are unable to commit to the 14 weeks.
