Nada Yoga - Maithlee Kavita (Live in India)

Visiting a classroom at the school on our land in rural India, and teaching the kids a song! I think they're a little confused - they've never seen a guitar before.

I toured all the schools, quizzed some kids, spoke with them in english, and I explained to them that my father was just like them, studying in a poor village school... but he worked hard to get a scholarship to come to Canada. Because of his hard work, I am free to pursue my interests (and not just the next meal).

Hope the message resonated with them, as for them, school is a ticket away from destitution. We are fortunate and really shouldn't forget that :)
