Peace Children experience peace as they gain emotional equilibrium through self acceptance, optimism, patience and humility.Peace is the one to be experienced.
Love Children develop compassion sharing, tolerance, friendship and sacrifice as they discover that love in not mere emotion, but with love the force that permeates all creation. Love is the natural quality.
Non-Violence Children learn that true Non-Violence is not harming anything, living and / or non-living, in thought word or deed.
It encompasses co-operation, respect for diversity, ecological balance and the unity of life.
Instead of being taught as a separate subject that can not be connected with reality, LPS encourages children to inculcate values in to their daily lives and develop a sense of appreciation for tradition.
We want modernity, but not at the cost of our precious traditions.
