Healing The Heart, Healing The Mind

Healing the Heart.
IS.
Healing The Mind.

The Heart Is Alive. IN FACT, IT BRINGS LIFE to us. With Each Pulsation, Sending Rivers of Prāna Flowing Through Our Plasma, Blood, Muscle, Fat, Skeleton, Marrow and Finally, Our Vital Reproductive Juices. There It TRANSFORMS INTO OUR Very Essence Itself Or Leaves US to Form a New Life with Another Beautiful Heartbeat Singing ITS Song!

This Heart That Is The Fiery Sun of Our Own Universe, Is Ever Producing Our Minds Through ITS Sensory Rays and Clear Light! Mind As IT Spreads Its Venous Tentacles to Every Sense Organ So That We Can Fully Experience The World Around US. Mind That Extends Instinctively Down Into Our Bellies, SO We Vicariously Feel Each Perceptive Truth As A Somatic Experience. And Mind, Like A Tree, Sends Its Rising Branches Upwards to Form Our Brain. Where We Think, Imagine, Reason and Occasionally Perceive The Highest Trudhs.

And YET, We Imprison This Heart Behind Gates of Arrogance, Lust, Hatred, Greed, Jealousy and Pride. And We Subject It Cruelly To Fears, Unjustly To Angers and Unmercifully to Grieving.

Our Hearts Are The Key To Our Lives. Heal Our Heart and We Heal Our Mind . In Healing The Mind We Finally Discard The Undigested Toxins of Fear, Anger and Grief. And SPontaneously and Oh So Creatively, The Heart Sings Its Joy and Its Simple Innocent Declaration- Know Me and Know Peace.

Workshop Description:
In The Vedic Tradition, The Heart Is The Seat Of Emotions, of Prāna and of Our Intrinsic Immunity. It is Also The Origin of the Mind As Emotions Moves Towards The Brain for Intellectual Understanding and The Gut for Instinctive Behavior. If We Free Our Emotional Seat from The Siege of Its Enemies: Fear, Anger and Grief Then The Rightful Emotions of Playfulness, Innocence and Joy Rule Supreme Once Again. IT IS A Journey of Remembrance. One We Should All Take Together. Yoga and āyurveda show us the way to do so.
Workshop Curricula:
The Heart As Seat Of Mind
The Qualities of The Heart: Creativity, Innocence and Joy
Understanding Heart Disease Through āyurveda: Treating Through Yoga
The ENEMIES OF THE HEART: FEAR, ANGER AND GRIEF
The Allies of the Heart: Resolve, Patience and Faith
Practicum: Emotional Intelligence Yoga Practice: Healing The Heart / Healing The Mind

A Heart to Heart Prayer:

May We Together Nourish Each Other.
May We Together Become Each Others Strength.
May We Together Become Wise.
May We Always Be Friends.
May We Support Each Other in Finding Peace.

May Your Breath Always BE AT PEACE!

THE RELEVANCE OF THE YOGA SUTRA OF PATANJALI

ANCIENT WISDOM FOR MODERN TIMES

The Yoga Sutras Are About the Tradition of Yoga. THEY CLARLY DEFINE THE GOAL, THE PRACTICES AND THE PATH. Although The Paths and Practices Are Numerous, The Final Goal Is Singular. IT IS Peace of Mind.

The Transformation of Patterns Into Essence.
To Find Ourselves and Come to Peace.

The Legend Is That The Eternal Serpent Upon Which Rests Pure Consciousness Was Awakened By A Restless Moving Of this Consciousness. And Was Sent to Seek An Answer to End All Such Restlessness. Through Observing The Dance of śiva He Discovered Yoga.

The Beauty Is Its Recognition That As Individuals We All Seek The Same Goal But Are Unable to Break Our Patterns Because We Cannot Put a Name to Our Restlessness. WHEN YOGA LEADS US TO THIS ANSWER WE ARE SET FREE.

In This Short Weekend Immersion We Will Imagine The Final Goal As Patañjali May Have and We Will Then Explore How to Adapt The Path to Our Individual States of Being, and Our Own World Circumstances. We May Find That Though Much Has Changed in Practice, Nothing Has Changed in Principal. Starting with the first Goal IS Laid Out in The First 15 Sutras, We Will Jump to the Second Chapter to the Journey. Besides The Traditional Understandings of the Classical Commentaries, We Will Bring Relevance to Our Own Journeys Here and Now. And We Will Find How The Traditional Yoga Can Indeed Infuse Our Modern Practices.

This Workshop is informed by a Desire to show the Huge Potential of Yoga And The Power to Give us An Inkling of this. WHEN THE ORANA EXPANDS INTO SOMETHING MORE, THEN WE HAVE BEGUN THE INNER YOGA.

COMING UP IN 2019

Emotions: Language of the Heart Vosem_Deteiy_i_Gruzovik.html | 먹튀 검증 | 안전 놀이터 | 배트 맨토토 | 먹튀 검증소

In The Ancient. vedic Sciences, The Heart Is Considered The Root Of The Mind.

While We Are Quite Aware Of The Power of Instinct and Its Home In The Enteric Gut and Brain Stem; And Equally Aware of the Power of Rational Intelligence and Its Home in the NeoCortex; By Assigning The Home of Emotions to the Limbic Region We May Be Missing Its Root Source and Doing a Great Disservice to Our Most Important Organ.

It is from the Heart That The "Felt Sense" Arises and Thus Mediates Between Instinct and Reason. The Connection Between Wisdom and Compassion That Gives Rise to Ethics and Sharing Is The State of Our Emotional Body.

In Trauma, This State IS UNTACK AND OUR EMOTIONS OF JOY, Creativity, And Innocence Curdle Into Grief, Rage and Fear. Learning to Decouple From Trauma Is Always Possible and Trauma Is Not Always Clinical. IT IS Not Necessarily Chronic or Even Acute. IT CAN BE THAT WHICH SIMPLY INTERFERES WITH COMPASTION AND WISDOM IN OUR DAY-TO-DAY LIFE. IT FORCES US TO CONTRACT INTO SURVIVAL, INTO SINKING PLEASSE PLEASURES AND OFTEN SINKING INTO BOUTS OF RAGE AND FRUSTATION, INTO IRRATIONAL CRAVINGS FOR COLDNES OF HEART AND EVEN INTO FEAR OF SPEAKING OUR TRUTH.

COMBINING THE WISDOM OF YOGA AND AYURVEDA AND LINKING IT WITH THE LANGUAGE OF SOMATIC PSYCHOTHOTHERAPIES, WE FIND THAT KEYS TO HEALING TAUMA ARE THE SAME KEYS THAT UNLOCK US FROM FEARS, IRRATIONAL TEMPERS AND GRIEVING. They Deliver US Safely Into Being Grounded: Allowing Enjoyments, Sensees of Purpose, Openings of the Heart And The Ability to Live Our Truths.

These Teachings Are Clear and Practical In The Yoga Path. ONCE COMBINED WITH THE BASIC TEACHINGS OF AYURVEDA, SUCH AS DIET, LIFESTYLE AND THE PROPER USE OF EXERCISE, THEREAPEUTIC TOOLS.

WHEN WE FREE THE HEART OF ITS BONDAGE TO LIFE TRAUMA, WE OPEN TO THE SALVE OF THE HIGHER EMOTIONAL STATES AND ENTER INTO OUR OWN LIVES AS WARRIORS OF LIGHT AND LOVE.

When you set Free We find Courage, Fortitude, Grace, Selflessness and we find the Emotions That Are Our Birthright and Our Pathways to Freedom from Suffering.

In These Ancient Sciences, We Call This " sattvavajaya Cikitsa.": THE VICTORY OF TRUTH.

In what i have coined rasa Bh.āvawe Learn to Cultivate The Essence of the Heart.

How Do We Understand The Emotional Body? vosem_deteiy_i_gruzovik.html | 먹튀 검증 | 안전 놀이터 | 배트 맨토토 | 먹튀 검증소

The Link Between The Mind And The Different Organs / Systems of the Body Is Well Researched and Documentd in Ayurveda. NOW THE PROGRESIVIVE FIELD OF PSYCHOTHOTHOTHEMAPY HAS Related Our Instincts to Our Reptilian Stem, Our Emotional To Our Neo-Cortex.

Instead It Begins In The Gut and Upwards Into The Gut and Upwards Into The Gut and Upwards Into The Gut and Upwards Inteo The Gut and Upwards Into The Gut and Upwards Into The Gut and Upwards INTO THE BRAIN The Connections Are Easy to See As Seats of Instincts, Feelings and Sensation / Thougoht. Therefore, All Our Instincts and Our Rational Thinking Revolve Around The Mediating Emotional State.

When Our Emotional State IS One Of Creativity, Innocence and Joy, We See Beauty, Feel Compassion and Instinctually Open to Universal Waves of Loving. However, Whener Emotions Are Dominated by Fear, Anger and Grief, We Become Susceptible to the 6 ENEMIES OF THE MIND: LUST, RAGE, GREED, JEALOUSY, ENVY AND DELUSION. And Our Thinking and Functionality Begins to Operate from these states. In Ayurveda, IT IT ALSO SAID THAT IF YOU WISH TO CONQUER THESE Six Enemies, There Is No Better Pathway Than That Of Yoga ( sattvavajaya Cikitsa.).

After Years of Personal Practice, Study and Teaching On The Relationship of the Emotional Body to Our Health and Our Peace of Mind, The Results I Have Gained Offer Clear, Succinct Information on The Use of these Yogic Tools. We Will Do Actual Practices to Show Their Effectiveness In Transforming Fear, Anger and Grief Into Creativity, Innocence and Joy.

Practical Sessionsthat Will Utilize All the Yogic Tools We Speak About So We Can Actualize The Experience of Emotional Stability. This Pactice Will Vary Daily As Our Circumstances and Growth Require US to Be Flexible. Although The Practice IS Designed to Be All Inclusive to most Levels of Practitioners, For Those Who Have Injuries or Special Needs, Times May Come Where You May Also Just Observe The Pactice. IT CAN BE JUST AS Powerful.

Additional Sessions: In a Forest, All Trees Thrive in Each Others Company. Whenever Possible We Will Engage in Joint Sangha Meditations and Discussions.

May WE ALWAYS BE FRIENDS IN THE LIGHT,

Sixty years have passed since Norwegian Anne-Katrina Westley released her book for children "Mom, Dad, Grandmother, eight children and a truck." We look at the latest sales ratings of our 2016 year: Anna West in the top. Why does the book "Mom, Dad, Grandmother, 8 children and a truck" continue to fit the counters? And who from modern parents does she not fit?

Anna Westley - Grandmother of all Norway

Anna Westley lived a long life - under ninety years. It was not in 2008. And to the half-century nationwide (and not only Norwegian!) Love for his main book, the writer probably managed to even get used to it. And although, according to rumors, the Norwegians called and call it the "grandmother of Norway" and "Mindastrd Lindgren", pride clearly did not stick to her. It is worth only to look at her portraits! From these photos, we look at very cute, completely simple, ineffective and crystalistic honest face.

In addition to writing activities, Anna-Katrinestly worked on radio and television. Anna Westley released more than fifty books, they are reading for sixteen languages. "Mom, dad, grandmother, eight children and a truck" became the first book of those nine who were dedicated to this cute family. In the close style, other novels and the story of the writer are written: about the baby and Shchepkin ("Dangerous Journey Shchepkin", "Shchepkin and Cunning Girls", "Shchepkin and Red Bicycle"), as well as the "small gift of Anton" and other books.

"Mom, dad, grandmother, eight children and truck"

How many children? Eight??? So rounded the eyes of new readers. Yes, exactly eight! Maren, Martin, Martha, Mads, Mona, Milli, Mina and Baby Morten. And another truck. He is almost a family member. And mother. And dad. And heng, a sad man who stole a truck from the family, because he loved to ride trucks. And Lower Hylda, the lady at the bottom, which at first terribly swore for children for the noise and gaps, and then loved them very much. And the fearful grandmother from the village ... Here are the heroes of the novel "Mom, Dad, Grandma, eight children and a truck."

The creator of all these characters Anna Westley is not from those writers who are engaged in fantasy worlds, dragons and fairies. That kind was missing, including in the 50s, when the story was created: take the British colleague, John Ronald Ruellatolkien, who at the same time writes "the Lord of the Rings".

Anne was listened, which is called, walks on the ground. Her mother, dad, 8 children with names for the letter "M" and a silent truck live in a large stone house, in a big city. However, it belongs to this house only one apartment - a room and a kitchen.

"But can you be placed in a single room as much as eight beds? Of course not! They did not have any beds. Every evening, children spread eight mattresses on the floor. It seemed to them that it was not so bad: first, you can lie in the whole side and chatter how much you want, and secondly, there is no danger that at night someone will fall from the bed to the floor. "

Dad works on its green truck driver and carrier, brings money, and mom buys food for them - and everyone is happy, "because it is more pleasant to be full than hungry." The elders are followed by the younger, many are already going to school. Money is nehuto, so the younger teach the clothes of the elders. But everyone has their own basin for washing clothes - and every evening the kitchen lines eight stakes with dirty clothes. In the morning, the mother poured hot water into each basin, and everyone can erase his little things. Everything is so easy! Even a little longer, right?

With this, it would seem that, quite ordinary family, it would seem, very ordinary things: I came to buy a grandmother from the village, I was stolen, and then a truck was found, and I went to the sea for a week to the sea, etc. Letter style at Anna Westley was extremely simple, Even stingy, but it is ideal for the imagination of the child independently dorished all the details. And these "ordinary" events turn to readers into real adventures.

"Mom, dad, grandmother, eight children and truck": for whom and why

It is known that each new generation matures a little earlier than the previous one. Today is the book "Mom, Dad, Grandma, Eight Children and Truck", you can read children from 4-5 years of age, and it will be the perfect time to start to get acquainted with her. The best design will be illustrations that Her husband Yukhanvestley lies for Anna - he illustrated her books for many years. However, these pictures are black and white and not as bright as it is now fashionable, so it is difficult to find such a publication.

And Mom, and Dad, and eight children know how to see unusual in the usual. And in this they will understand each child. At this age, the reader Westley is a blank sheet. There is no doubt that the book content will like any child. Still would! As the youngest of all younger, Baby Morten, lost because I found a puddle and splashing in her head, forgetting everything in the world! Or as Pope called the classmate Madsa and about the arrival of the guest arranged a real children's holiday: turned a small apartment to a huge ship, smartly and ladder, and sails, and even Mama shifted to the sailor! Here, in this book, everything is very simple and present. Grandma came from far villages and was very afraid of cars and trams. Mom and Pope have no money to buy alarm clock, and then Baby Morten will learn to wake everyone at six in the morning. The bad deeds are wrapped with extractive and kindness, troubles are easier, if together and laughing, and from a difficult situation there will always be a way out!

It is much more complicated by the problem with the tastes of parents. Consumption culture, being a general trend of the XXIV, puts new accents. For adepts of wealth as the only battery of life, our mother, dad and eight children will seem to be hurried, who are disgusting proud of their poverty and, as they say, build a good mine with a bad game. How so? Children in this book are erased all the time, clean, paint, follow the younger, somebody help ... and do not play at all, do not chase a ballet, do not spit in the ceiling, do not stick out from the TV, they have no pocket money, they have a pocket money Bread, and gashing they drink if only visiting. "No money" is the standard state of the family, completely normal, but an immutable fact. A certain springboard, thanks to which everything becomes even more interesting!

Those Russian parents whose moral formation had to be at the 90s, this book would never be able to accept: here are other moral landmarks. Eight children, Morten's baby to the older Maren, are able to enjoy life, not being addicted to money. And in this new round of the relevance of the book Anna Westley. The European path of development of society is such that it, overcoming consumption, today is again striving for naturalness, simplification, greater asceticism in possessing things. It's fun and pleasant to help others, live in love and harmony with your family, not to quarrel on trifles and do not pay attention to trivia at all, to trust each other, appreciate and place what is happening at hand - that's what the story is translated about "Mom, Pope, grandmother, eight children and truck. "

Of course, if you are a parent, then the kids are a little sorry. That's my mother with dad at least a little extra money so that they could allow themselves to afford to themselves! However, where "more", there is a lot. And now - imagine - Mom, dad and eight children move to a spacious apartment, they remove the housekeeper, and eight basins are no longer built in the morning in the corridor ... Never. Therefore, it is so important today by Anna Westley and her "mother, dad, grandmother, eight children and a truck," to do small, love those who are near, rejoice in simple surprises. After reading this for five years, internally agreeing with this, in six years a child will go to school. And it will not be so easy to convince the fact that for happiness you need only a hundred first typewriter or a hundred first doll.

Anna-Katrina Westley is one of the most famous children's writers of Norway, often its glory is compared with the Slava Astrid Lindgren. For fifty years of creative work, she wrote 56 books that were translated into 16 languages. The writer told her stories itself in the cycle of children's radio programs, and then they went out into the light in the book format. Several generations of Norwegian children rose on her books. Stories from the life of a simple Norwegian family are most popular, in which dad works with a driver, and Mom is a housewife. They were gained at nine books. Of course, this family is not at all ordinary. And not only because there are eight children in it, but also because their daily life appears to small readers as an exciting adventure.

The story "Dad, Mom, Grandma, Eight Children and Truck" for the first time came out in 1957 and since then many times reprinted. In our country - already three times over the past five years.

The action unfolds in the capital of Norway Oslo, in the era, which is quite difficult to imagine the modern city child - in that time there were no TVs, no computers or even washing machines. Heroes of the story live a truly difficult life. Try you to fit ten in the one-room apartment in the center of Oslo, and even with the dog. Try every day two times to fir the stove so that it was not cold, wash in the kitchen in a trough, always put on the clothes behind the elders and sleep on the mattress on the floor. Try how to do lessons when Morten wants to knock with a hammer, Maren - dance, Mona - sing, Mina - scream, and Milli - drumming. From our time filled with all sorts of comfort and adaptations, all this seems completely unthinkable. It is impossible in such conditions to be happy. But we immediately, from the first pages of the book, we feel like a happy one family. No one complains about difficulties, and everyone is looking for a way out. And the yield is sooner or late. For example, a grandmother arrives from the village. And where, asks, it will be located, if already and so much people live in this small apartment? But dad, mother and eight children love her grandmother so much that it is no problem for them. Yes, and for grandmother too. Think, you can sleep on the table, it's even interesting. The main thing is again together.

Once under the Christmas, Mona was terribly angry at Morten, who spoiled her gift for mom - embroidered napkin. She was ready to break the morten ones right there, but Dad offered her a completely unexpected way out - there are several circles around the quarter.
"Dad looked at Monou.
Of course, it is very bad, "he said. - But the worst thing is that we have so little space. There is still a real one here.
- How is this now? - Surprised Mona. - Is it an angry need more space than not angry?
"Undoubtedly," answered Dad. - Here, for example, I, when I am angry, running out of the house and ride several times around our quarter. Than the evil is, the more I run ...
- And I will try! - exclaimed Mona. - You know how angry I am! Oh, how I am angry! "

Mona with delight turns on the game. She rushes a circle behind the circle and suddenly acquires new knowledge: it turns out, it is quite possible to cope with your anger. It is even a very fun lesson. And, of course, she forgives Morten. And mom gets a new embroidered napkin for Christmas.

Love is born in response to love. Such a close, warm human connection, such a careful attitude towards each other, strong friendship and love in the family - about it, of course, every child dreams. But is he ready to love himself in response? Often, unfortunately, no. Just because it does not know how, does not feel another person. Does not know how it is done. And no one can help him in this. A modern man is more and more seeking to retire, be alone, to burn out from other people and their problems. And children are no exception. And in this book, everything is exactly the opposite.

Old red truck is also a full member of the family, dividing her joys and works. He is also searched, care for him, wanted when he is hijacked, try not to load too much so as not to have twisted the body. Awesome, love attitude towards a person and to things not as a one-time feat, but as a completely ordinary phenomenon of everyday life is one of the stunning discoveries that everyone is waiting for anyone who will take reading this story, especially a modern child who lives in the space of consumption society. To give, not to take, take care of someone, worrying for another, it turns out, it happens much more interesting than something to demand something without end. And also, it turns out that a truly man needs not in things at all, but in humans.

Children readers from the first pages are surprised to notice that eight children from books are always merry and ingenious in games, despite the external state of their lives. But their school buddy Sigurd, who has a miracle! "There is one own room and a lot of interesting things, does not know what to take himself, and happy to have fun with them together at the children's holiday, which Dad and Mom arranged for them. In that very single one on all the room, turned for a couple of hours to the ship - with similarity from ironing board and sail, stitched on an ambulance hand from eight children's sheets. That's the whole point, here is one of the secrets of happiness of this family - adults and children seek each other, they are good together. Adults are able and love to play with their children, and children are not separated from the everyday worries of their parents. Small readers very quickly notice the spiritual generosity of adult heroes of the books that are easily divided by their time and forces, without discouraging fatigue or undifferentially, although they work all day not to give up hands. As it, unfortunately, does not like the daily reality of the life of a modern child, often provided to himself or transferred by loves, but very busy parents under the custody of the nanny. He sighs with envy - I wish me so ...

Having learned that the children had nothing to talk about at school after the summer holidays, which they spent again in a stuffy city, dad takes an instant decision: tomorrow we are going to the sea. It does not matter that there is no money for tickets and a hotel. Do you need the sea? You get it. To do this, you will need only a truck, a backpack, a blanket for each and a warm sweater in addition. Well, of course, bathing facilities. The simplicity of life of this family and strong love is truly creating wonders. For a week, the children are having fun at the sea as their classmates may not have rested for all summer. And this will also definitely become another discovery for the child, especially nine-ten years old, for which it becomes important, in which he himself and his friends, what things he has, and what no. This chapter is worth all special educational conversations. Just read it out loud and refuse with the child when he himself accidentally guess that a person is not measured by the things that are used on it.

But in general, the book "Dad, Mom, Grandma, Eight Children and Truck" is not a philosophical, but very, very fun, filled with games and fictions. For example, the names of all children in this family are similar to funny read-up, they all start on the letter M. It seems that mom started the next game when she loud calls children to the table: "Maren, Martin, Martha, Mads, Mona, Milli , Mina, Morten - Dining! " And that with the fact that for lunch they often have only bread and potatoes. The whole difficulty of life of the heroes as if hidden until the reader for the Morten Traders and his brothers and sisters. And the smallest readers, those that are still just listening, do not notice these difficulties at all, can not break away from the fascinating text. They slightly envy Morten, who painted the entire floor in the room of red paint, and there was nothing for it. Worried - Will Dad allowed to leave the dachshund found in the forest, which children have already invented a funny name self-hard tube? Having dried, watching how little Morten helps to extinguish the fire in the house in the neighborhood, as the grandmother protects the house from the robbers, having a trap with a bucket, - and sighs with relief, when the robbers are not robbers at all, but familiar families who come to visit without Warnings.

The story enjoys the continued success in children of different ages, since the four years.

Beautiful illustrations of Natalia Kucherenko give out every child and adult in this family with their characteristic features. Knitted mona hat and Morten's motley pants, decorated with red poppiles, it is impossible to confuse with anything. And maybe the book is still so interesting and because every child will definitely find their "reflection" here - someone will find its similarity with a little restless Morten, who has not yet accepted the letter "R", someone will know himself in Madse, who It is afraid to go to a new school. And someone's reflection, you may have a touching mona or thoughtful Marrene.
If suddenly your children seem that the book ended too quickly, offer them to read her continuation called "Little Gift Anton" (this book is also issued by the publishing house "Mahar". And do not be surprised if you are asked: isn't it yet?

Elena Litvak

At another morning, as soon as older children left the house, Mads and Mona began to prepare for the campaign.

They whispered about something with her mother and slipped into the stairs.

They walked, holding hands, and looked at all the trucks passed by. And trucks were a lot.

When they happened to see a green truck, they ran up to him, looked into his face, but immediately it turned out that it was somehow. Yes, yes, do not be surprised, their truck had her own face, just like a person. In addition, he had a smashed body, because for his life a truck transported a lot of heavy cargo.

No, not so easy to find your truck. But they must find it, because without a dad truck and mom will never be fun and dad will not be able to earn money. Of course, there is another job, but he will no longer love her, because most of all he loved led his truck.

Mona tired legs.

"Let's sit a little," she said and went to a big showcase with a wide low cornice, which could be sitting.

"Well, sitting," MadS allowed. - You just do not risk, otherwise we will never find a truck.

In truth, MadS did not really hoped to find a truck. Last night, lying in bed, he was sure that they would find a truck, but today on the street, seeing the endless flow of cars, he almost lost hope. Chepukha, from these searches anyway nothing will come! But he did not want to talk about this Monet.

It is better to pretend that he believes that they will find a truck. What if it helps?

- Look, what beautiful baths, - said Mona, - Maybe we will ever be like that!

"Then we will have to hang it out to the ceiling," Mads grunted. - You'd better look at the trucks, and not on the bath.

- I already have eyes tired of these trucks!

- Then close the eyes and listen to the motors, you know what our own voice is.

- I know! - Mona snapped his eyes tightly and began to listen.

At first it was scary, it seemed to her that all cars would go straight to her. At first, the noise of the motor was heard from afar, then he approached everything and approached and finally roared from her ear with such a force that Mona from fear could not breathe. But gradually the sound subsided - the car was removed. Soon the mona ceased to be afraid and even almost tricked up under the noise of motors.

Suddenly she jumped up:

- Mads, listen to! Close your eyes and listen. Seem to be?

- Seem to be. Highly!

He instantly opened his eyes, but - alas! - Outdoor was not green, but a bright red truck.

The truck drove up and stopped right in front of them. A man came out of him. For a while he looked at his truck with satisfied. Then he entered the store where the baths were sold.

Mads approached the truck and examined the body.

"The same curve, like our," he said. - I do not understand, can there really be two such similar trucks in the world?

- Wait, Mads, - Suddenly shouted Mona, - Look, you all squeezed out in the red paint! What will say mom now!

- In paint? - I was surprised by Mads, and you want to believe, you want no, he was pleased. - So the truck is painted quite recently!

Mads bypassed a truck from all sides.

- And his face is quite like our. What do you think, should you look into the cockpit?

- Come on, just quickly! I will turn.

Not passed and minutes like MadS got out of the cab.

- This is our truck, mona! He shouted.

A policeman approached them.

- What are you doing here? - he asked strictly.

- This is our truck. It was stolen with us, - Mads and Mona Madorati. - And we found it. You see, this is our truck! It is impossible for us without him, because he feeds us all, all-all: and dad, and mom, and eight children.

- What was the truck from your father? - asked the policeman.

"Green," replied Mona.

- And this red one. - The policeman leaned against the body. - I understand that you wanted to help your father, but this time you are mistaken.

- Oh, Mr. Policeman, do not learn! - shouted Mads. - See, you sworn in red paint. I am also all in paint.

- Yeah! So, the truck has just been painted. Suspicious! - said the policeman.

- Want, I immediately prove that this is our truck? - asked MadS.

At this time, a man came out of the store who came on the truck.

- Is this your truck? - asked the policeman.

"Of course," the man replied.

"Then ask him that in the cockpit under the seat," said Mads.

The man was confused a little, but replied:

- I do not remember exactly, it seems, suede for wipes of stalk.

- And I know for sure! - Gondo said Mads.

- Well? - asked the policeman.

"On the reverse side of the dad's seats, the photos of Mom, Maren, Martin, Martha, Mona, Milli, Mines, Mortena, Monta and Mill, said Mads.

"We'll see now," said the policeman. - Taking the seat here.

Mads climbed into the cockpit, pulled out the seat, and there really were all nine photos.

A man who came on the truck became very serious. Suddenly he smiled.

"Yes, this is my wife and my children," he said.

"Not true," Mona objected. - We are not your children, and these are our photos.

- How - not mine! Of course mine! - He turned to a policeman. "They're just very disobedient, I can't cope with them."

- Then tell me how my name is! - I demanded MadS.

- Mmmm Monts! - the man said frightened.

- Nothing like this. My name is MadS!

"So enough," said the policeman. - I feel everything!

"That's right, I stole a truck," the man said. Now he had a pitiful premist. - I always really wanted to rule the truck. Once I even rushed that I would be a chaffiner. This truck looked so lonely when I found him that I decided to take it at least a week.

"Okay, well, you will go to the plot and explain there, as it happened," the policeman said. - Goodbye, guys! Now I will send to you on duty, he will take you home on your truck. The key, I see in place.

- Before the date! .. - Male was confused.

He looked at the pack, who kept in his hand.

"Actually, I bought it for a truck," he said. - Here is a cup for flowers. It will be very beautiful if you attach it to the cab window.

Mads took the package and politely bowed to a man. He went with the police, the appearance of him was so unfortunate that Monte and Madsu was sorry for him.

- Come to visit us! - shouted Mads to him. - Dad will ride you on the truck. We live where you found him.

A man nodded Madside very seriously and went further.

And happy Mads and Mona looked in the body. Finally, another policeman came, the engine started, and the truck moved.

Having drove a little, they saw Maren, Martin and Marta, who slowly burers down the street and intently examined all the green trucks.

Mads knocked in the cabin window and asked a policeman to stop.

- Hey! He shouted Marrene, Martin and Martha. - Go here, sit down!

They climbed into the body, but their faces were upset.

"In general, we don't have time to drive around by car, but they are very tired of very legs," said Maren.

- Where are you so hurry? - asked MadS.

"We are looking for a daddy truck," Martin answered solemnly.

"Then take a look better, what are you going," said Mads.

That was joy when they returned home with a truck! But the truck itself was happy! After all, he has long been used to this family and could not even imagine how this can serve someone else. Well, the fact that he became red from the green, he even liked him.

Dad, Mom, Eight Children and Truck

He lived, there was a big-pre-established family: Dad, Mom and as many as eight children. The children were called this way: Marrene, Martin, Martha, Mads, Mona, Milli, Mina and Baby Morten.

And a small truck lived with them, which they all loved. Still not love - because the truck fed the whole family!

If any of the acquaintances were going to move, they certainly asked the dad to carry things. If you needed to deliver goods from the station to some store, then it was not without a daddy truck. Once the truck drove huge brices directly from the forest and so tired that then he had to give a little vacation.

Usually dad and truck went to work every day, and Dad gained money for it. Money dad gave mom, and my mother bought food on them, and everyone was satisfied, because it is more pleasant to be full than hungry.

When Dad, Mom and all eight children walked down the street, passersby almost always took them for a small demonstration. Some even stopped and asked mom:

- Does it really all your children?

"Of course," Mom answered proudly. - And then whose same?

Dad, mother and eight children lived in a high stone house, in the very center of a huge city. And although the family was so big, their apartment consisted of only one room and kitchen. At night, Dad and Mom slept in the kitchen, on the sofa, and the children in the room. But can you be placed in the single room as much as eight beds? Of course not! They did not have any beds. Every evening, children spread eight mattresses on the floor. It seemed to them that it was not so bad: first, you can lie in the whole side and chatter how much you want, and secondly, there is no danger that at night someone will fall out of bed on the floor.

On the day, the mattresses were laid by a high slide in the corner so that the room could be free to walk.

And everything would be fine, if it would not be one unpleasant circumstance. This is what: a lady lived in the apartment right under them, who could not bear noise.

But what can you do if Marrene loved to dance, Martin - Jump, Martha - run, Mads - knock, Mona - sing, Milli - beat the drum, Mina - shout, and Baby Morten - Kolotnoy on the floor than it fell. In a word, you can imagine that they had not very quiet at home.

Once the door knocked on the door, and a lady came to the room, which lived under them.

"My patience burst," she said. - I am now coming to complain to the owner. In this house it is impossible to live. Do you really can't calm your unquestion children?

The children hid behind her mother's back and carefully looked out of her. It seemed that mom instead of one head grows nine at once.

"I'm trying to calm them all the time," Mom said, "but they just play, like all the children in the world, I can not scold them for it."

- Of course. For me, so let them play as much as you like, - the lady said angrily. "But after lunch, I go to rest, and if I still hear at least one sound, I will go and complain to the owner." I just wanted to warn you.

"Well, okay," Mom sighed, "we will do as usual."

Children were well known what it means "as usual", and four of the elders immediately began to wear four younger. Mom, too, tied a handkerchief and put on a coat, and everyone was ready for a walk.

- Where will we go today? Mom asked.

"Let's open new lands," said Maren.

"Let's go to the street at which we never went before," MadS picked up: they always did some new discovery on a walk.

"Then we would have to go very far away, and we did not have much time," Mom said. - Let's go better on the pier.

While they walked, dad returned from work. He put the truck near the house and, before going home, washed a little and cleaned it. A rag for wiping a dad truck put in the cockpit under the seat. On the back of the seat, the Pope photos and all eight children were glued. The dad seemed that they thus accompany him all trips.

If Dad met someone who he especially liked, he raised the seat and showed photos.

"That's fine," said Dad, "now the truck is nice, and I can safely go home.

But as soon as Dad opened the door of his apartment, he immediately realized that there was no one at home.

"It can be seen, again we visited the lady below," he guessed and get to rest.

After a while, mom and children returned home. Truck near the house was not.

"So dad hasn't arrived yet," said March.

"Very sorry," Mom upset. - And I thought, we all stuffed together. Well, nothing can be done.

They entered the apartment and, to their surprise, discovered in the kitchen calmly pouring dad.

- You're healthy on us! - Mom said. - Where did you hide the truck? We were upset that you are not at home, and you, it turns out here.

- Truck? - Saleno said Dad. - The truck stands on the spot, you just did not see it.

- What are you saying! - Mom indignant. - It may not be that me and eight children noticing one truck. Well, Maren, run down, look again!

Dad sat down, scratched the head, yawned. It seemed that he did not even understand what was talking about.

- Maybe you divert the truck for repair? Mom asked. - Maybe the motor spoiled?

- No no no! - exclaimed dad. - I said that he stands downstairs. I even washed him out and a stool's protecher. Pretty about it! Point!

But when Maren came running up and said that there was no truck below, Dad finally woke up.

"I'll go," he said, "you need to immediately declare the police."

Everyone like petrified. For a long time, no one could put out a word. It was terrible and think that the truck was stolen. After all, the truck earned money every day for them, and they everyone loved him, as if he was a family member. Yes, strictly speaking, it was.

- Mom, do you think he was stolen? - finally asked Marrene.

- What is amazing here? After all, he is so beautiful, "answered Mom.

Dad went to the police station, from there they called other police stations and reported that a small green truck was stolen.

Several days have passed, but there was neither a rumor about the truck. Finally, even on the radio announced that all people in the country knew, that a small green truck was missing.

These days, the children were very quiet and obedient. They all the time thought about the truck and very sorry.

In the evenings, they whispered long, lying on mattresses. Martin spoke most:

- Tomorrow - the day of pay, and dad will not get anything. Let's go tomorrow to look for a truck. Without kids, of course, only Maren, Martha and me.

- And you can, and I will go with you too, because we are no longer kids? - asked MadS.

- No, we can go very far. We will walk all day until we find, "Martin replied.

"Let me," whispered Mads Monet. "Tomorrow, when they leave, we will not sleep too and go look without them."

- Okay. How did you deftly come up with! - man was delighted.

Soon they fell asleep, but the city did not sleep yet, and cars were swept through the streets: passenger cars, buses and many a lot of green trucks.

What do you think will find dad, mom and eight children your truck?

Take patience, and you learn about everything from the next chapter.

Truck

At another morning, as soon as older children left the house, Mads and Mona began to prepare for the campaign.

They whispered about something with her mother and slipped into the stairs.

They walked, holding hands, and looked at all the trucks passed by. And trucks were a lot.

"In general, we don't have time to drive around by car, but they are very tired of very legs," said Maren.

- Where are you so hurry? - asked MadS.

"We are looking for a daddy truck," Martin answered solemnly.

"Then take a look better, what are you going," said Mads.

Grandma comes to the city

Can you imagine how hard to wear such a big family? Happiness is still that they might keep clothes with each other: March after Marrene, Mona after Martha, Milli after Mona, Mina after Milli, Mads after Martin, and Baby Morten wore everything after everyone, but then all things were already so worn that Mom had to cut pieces of them kiss and from these pieces to sew his pants.

Morten really liked that he had multicolored pants. When he got bored, he could endlessly look at the multicolored patchworks of matter, of which his clothes were sewn.

But each of the children had their own basic for washing. And these basins did not pass by inheritance from one to another.

Every evening, children in two walked into the kitchen and washed.

The first was the baby Morten and Mina. Mom helped them wash, then poured clean water in their basins, a little washing powder was poured there and asked:

- Do you have anything dirty today?

"Something dirty" was almost always. Morten and Mina lowered their linen each in her basic.

Similarly, they did all the rest. At night in the kitchen on the table there was a contract for ten basins, and in every moco dirty underwear. Early in the morning, the mother poured hot water into them, and each alone, as he knew how, was taken for washing. Mom helped everyone bit, pouring water for rinsing, and soon she already hung a clean lingerie on the rope, which was extended from the kitchen window through the whole yard to another house.

And every day the rope was full.

One day, when everyone was busy with washing, through a cloth in the door in the mailbox suddenly fell a letter.

Everyone quickly disastened wet linen and rushed to the box.

- Do not touch the letter with wet hands! - Mom shouted, running around the kitchen in search of a towel.

Dad wiped his hands on his pants, Morten followed his example. Mona, Milli and Mina wiped hands about Mamin Apron, and Marrene, Martin and Mads grabbed some kind of rag. Everyone diligently wiped hands.

Yes, due to the letter there was a whole stir.

Of course, you will say that there is nothing surprising in getting letters that you also received letters, and more than once. But this letter was from the old grandmother who lived in the village and did not like writing letters.

For a long time, they have not received anything from her. Of course, the grandmother was difficult to write this letter, because since she studied at school, sixty years have passed, and during this time it is easy and forget, what the letters look like.

- Can I cut an envelope? - asked dad, armed with a large kitchen knife.

But my mother was frightened.

"With this knife you will be cut to pieces of everything," she said. - Better I will open it myself.

She pulled out a hairpin out of her hair and cut her envelope so deftly, as if all his life had just made that he opened the envelopes with a stud. Then she sung the stud in her mouth and began to read.

- "Oh-oh-oh!"

- What are you reading? - interrupted her dad. - We do not understand anything. It is impossible to simultaneously chew a hairpin and read.

- And then the truth - Mom agreed, stilled into her hair and read: - "My dear! For ten years I copied the piggy bank. "

- What piggy bank? - asked dad.

"Ordinary," answered Mom. - Listen further: "And now I have so much money that I can go and visit you all. Very fun to see all your children. How many are they now? I hope I'm not crazy. At night I can sit on a chair or you can hang me to the ceiling, because I sleep hard and anywhere. I will go on Tuesday and think that you will meet me at the station, because I have never happened before in such a big city.

Kiss. Grandmother".

- Oh my God! - exclaimed dad. - Do we have to hang it to the ceiling?

"I don't know," answered Mom. - In any case, we must bring order to the grandmother's arrival. Today is Monday, and if I'm not mistaken, she will come tomorrow morning.

"I'll go, I will try to get a mattress, he will be useful, we will hang it to the ceiling or not," said Dad and left on a red truck.

Mom and younger children immediately began the stove cookies. And the elders had to go to school, but, returning from school, they grabbed their mattresses, carried into the courtyard and began to dig them with such a heat that the whole cloud of dust was rising. Then they were soapy, scrapers and cleaned the apartment so that everything was pure and beautiful everywhere.

Dad arrived home with a mattress and a whole roll of red paper for decoration.

By evening, everything was terribly tired, and the children instantly fell asleep.

Dad and mom also stuck her nose, but they had a lot of cases. First of all, eight posters had to be made. A name was written on each poster. After all, the grandmother did not even know how many grandchildren had. It is clear that she did not have the idea of \u200b\u200ball their names.

The next day, the whole family went to the train station on the truck. They went to Perron, lined up in a rank and began to wait. Everyone on her neck hung a poster.

Suddenly stroked the station radio.

- What did it say? - asked children.

"It said that Babushkin Train comes to Perron," answered Mom.

And everyone saw, like, Puffy and Fyrch, drove Babushkin steam locomotive. He dragged a lot of cars behind him.

"So she arrived," March whispered. - It would not be to melt it.

Dad, mom and eight children rose on the tiptoe and looked into the windows of the wagons, but there was no grandmother anywhere.

"Don't worry, don't worry," Mom said. - Let's wait for it here, now it will come out of the car.

Many people came out of the train. Among them turned out to be a lot of old women, but there were no grandmother. Finally, the last passenger came out, and the train was empty.

- Maybe the grandmother did not come at all? - asked Mona, almost crying.

"I certainly arrived," Mom said firmly. - Now we will pass on the cars and are looking for it.

The wagons stood completely empty, but when they looked into one compartment, the door of which was ajar, then in the old corner saw the old woman in a white handkerchief. She sat low down her head and covered her face with his hands. It was a grandmother.

- Why are you hid here? Mom asked.

"I'm afraid to go out," Grandma said. - Here, in the city, so noisy.

- What are you afraid of? After all, we are all with you and will guard you.

- And I thought to sit here until the train turns and won't go back. Anyway, it will be considered that I visited the city.

"It's not so good," Mom decisively stated. - You have to watch us at least a little.

"I'm afraid to go outside, there are so many cars," Grandma said.

"Do not be afraid, babous, I'm lying you Chelya Rogue," said Morty Mortea.

Then grandmother agreed. She firmly took the baby Morten's hand and came out with him.

Grandma was happy when they finally got to the house. Their apartment seemed very beautiful to her. Yes, it is not surprising - after all, all pots with flowers, walls and ceiling were decorated with red paper.

Now the grandmother seemed to see all grandchildren and learned by heart their names.

After that, she sat down by the window and led the rest of the day there.

When coffee was ready, she took her cup and put it on the windowsill.

"Why are you sitting at the window all the time?" - asked Grandma Mads.

"I think cars," answered the grandmother. - One hundred eight, one hundred nine ...

She was sitting by the window until he was dark.

"I counted a thousand eighty cars," she said. - Not so bad for the first day. Can I sit at night on a chair, maybe I count more?

"No that you," Mom said, "go to bed better." I am very interested in how you like your bed.

Mom opened the door to the kitchen: there, on the kitchen table, a bed for grandmother was arranged.

- How interesting! - said Grandma. - I have never had to sleep on the tables yet in my life!

You may also have to sleep in the kitchen on the table? In any case, the grandmother slept so well that she immediately decided to live in Pope, moms and eight children for a whole week. Of course, you guessed that all this was very delighted.

On this evening, eleven basins with dirty loses lined up in a row on the floor, because the kitchen table was busy.
