Presentation of the lesson

We shall present the lesson with the activity of an ‘Open - Heart Surgery’.Drop into the paper-heart ships of paper or cards on which words – Fear, Sorrow, Frustrated, Anger, Joy, Courage, Self-respect and Love – are written. Show the students the heart filled with all these emotions and inform them that you are going to conduct a surgery. Invite eight students and ask them to take one card each. Let them read out what they got.Divide the students into two groups based on what they got and explain what one gains by obeying the Commandments and what one losses by breaking them. With this explanation you may begin with the lesson.

In the biography of Saints there are many instances about the joy they experienced by obeying the Commandments. Let the students find out those instances and tell them in the class. Instead of “Shall Not”: Discuss what “Shall Be” done as against the ‘Shall Not’s’ in the Commandments.eg: You shall not kill – You shall nurse the sick, You shall help the wounded, You shall be kind towards all creatures
