Cutting the Roots of Violence
An article by Deva Sangit, who is Professor of Educational Psychology at the Canadian University of Alberta, Edmonton, has been selected for inclusion in the September issue of Education Canada, the country's main national education magazine.
Sangit's article, "Cutting the Roots of Violence," examines how violence is taught to growing children through television, and through family and school attitudes that emphasize obedience and comparison.
He introduces a new "modern Zen," approach, based on his understanding of Osho's insights, teaching attentiveness, responsibility, catharsis and witnessing, helping students to release stress and repressed emotions in a safe environment, as well as nurturing the unique potential of each individual.
