For Christmas: "...children are so innocent..."

I hope you all look after your [small] children, guide them properly and take them to a level of understanding that they understand what is their position, what qualities they should have, why will they be respected. You'll be amazed, that their behavior will change the behavior of all the other children.
What I have to say that nobody should think that you are very grown-up because you can keep quiet, sit quietly and all that. You are grown-up only if you can imbibe the qualities of Shri Ganesha. I have seen people who are very grown-up still do not have simple qualities of chastity, of honesty - they don't have, and they can't have, because they don't think it is important. So I leave it to you to find out Shri Ganesha within yourself.
I enjoy their company because they're so innocent, and so simple hearted, and I like them very, very much. So you should not get afraid or frightened of their mischief. On the contrary, you should know they deserve much more love, much more understanding and much more scope to grow. 
I hope by the time they will be of your age, they'll be great Sahaja Yogis. They'll understand what we are doing here.
 I had to face mountains of nonsense with the older people, but these won't have that. They'll be very simple, very sweet and they'll understand love. So I would say we can allow these children to go out and play and somebody can look after them so that you'll be at peace.
