what people have said of HKTV for Youth
Dear prabhu,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
We have watched all of the Kurma videos that you sent to us. My boys were
very tickled to see "Kermit" with a sikha, kurta, neckbeads, and beadbag.
The voice is really really good!
There is one part where the camera shows a picture of Mother Yasoda looking
in Krsna's mouth, and then it zooms in on a dot that turns into a picture
what is in Krsnas mouth, and then zooms in again, and so on. My kids really
thought that was interesting, and my 4 year old, Jacksen, seemed to make a
connection from it that he hadn't made before. He could see how she actually
saw all of that within His mouth and how we are just one tiny part of a huge
cosmic manifestation. You could see the understanding come over him while we
were watching the show and telling him what it was trying to say. It was
inspiring to see him realize it. Very nicely done.
The interviews with various devotees obviously held Kevin's interest, my 9
year old, much more than Jacksen's, but he did manage to watch almost all of
it. I am curious if you know a lot of children who have watched some of
these shows, or is it more adults? Jacksen asked me if there are any other
cartoons or any puppet shows or anything, and I told him I would ask.
It would be nice to have some, but I also want him to be able to sit through
something that isn't all music and funny talking, so he can see that simply
talking about Krsna and being a devotee can be good too. After all, he is
getting old enough to be able to do that. I believe Srila Prabhupada said
that by age 5 a child should be able to sit in on a Bhagavatam class, and
these videos are good practice for that. I say that because these videos are
more fun and lively than your usual Bhagavatam class wihtout a doubt, but
they are not as visually stimulating as a cartoon or other children shows.
Thank you very much and please keep me updated with anything interesting!
Hare Krsna
