Sadhguru Tips: In a world filled with online misinformation and rising concerns about sexual awareness, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev shares valuable insights on how to educate children about their bodies with dignity. He emphasizes the importance of offering guidance in a way that instills respect for oneself and others, especially in today’s society where traditional family structures have transformed.
Sadhguru’s Approach to Sex Education
Sadhguru highlights how, in the past, large joint families naturally educated children about biology without the label of “sex education.” Elders, including grandmothers and aunts, spoke to girls and boys about their bodies, ensuring they understood their changes and the proper way to behave. In contrast, today’s nuclear families find it challenging to impart such knowledge, often resulting in children learning from unreliable online sources.
The Role of Families and Schools
According to Sadhguru, the responsibility of sex education now lies with schools because of the erosion of the joint family system. Parents may find it awkward to discuss such topics with their children, leading to embarrassment for both parties. Sadhguru stresses the need for trusted figures in schools who can impart this information sensitively and responsibly, ensuring that children receive guidance from a reliable source rather than the internet.
Educating for a Safer Future
Sadhguru points out that proper education can prevent issues like sexual misconduct, misinformation, and guilt. He calls for education on how to manage biological changes with dignity, to ensure safety for girls, and to foster responsible behavior in boys.
