Every parent wants their children to concentrate on studies and get good marks. But many times children start staying away from books. This could be due to many reasons, not just laziness. Even in Indian scriptures, education has been given the highest place and many measures have been suggested to concentrate the mind. Let us know the reason and solution.
Reasons why children are not interested in studies
lack of interest
If the child is not interested in the subject, he will start avoiding studies.
extreme pressure
The child becomes mentally tired due to excessive study load or constant scolding.
digital distraction
Mobile, TV and games distract children from studies.
fatigue and lack of sleep
Due to not getting enough sleep, the child feels tired and is unable to concentrate on studies.
less confident
Due to repeated failure, the child becomes afraid of studies.
remedies suggested by the scriptures
worship ganesh ji
In the scriptures, Lord Ganesha is considered the god of knowledge and wisdom. Chant Ganesh Mantra before starting studies.
“Om Gan Ganpate Namah”
It calms the mind and increases concentration.
Saraswati Vandana
Mother Saraswati is the goddess of knowledge. Make children do Saraswati Vandana or chant mantra every morning.
“Om Ain Saraswatyai Namah”
This increases memory power and interest in studies.
Choose the right time to study
Brahmamuhurta (4 to 6 in the morning) is considered best for studying the scriptures. At this time the environment is calm and the mind concentrates quickly.
consumption of basil
Tulsi is considered a symbol of purity and concentration. Give basil leaves to children daily. It increases mental peace and memory power.
place of study
According to the scriptures, studies should always be done facing east or north. This direction gives positive energy.
Distance from mobile and TV
Even in the scriptures, advice has been given to avoid things that distract the mind. Keep digital devices away while studying.
Additional Tips
Encourage children instead of scolding them.
Use charts, stories and examples to make learning interesting.
Provide adequate sleep and nutritious food.
It is normal for children not to be interested in studies, but this can be rectified by using the right environment, love and adopting the measures suggested in the scriptures. Remember, education is not limited to books only, rather it is about concentration of mind and soul.
