FiBS-Pedagogy for 8 Classes
The spiritual FiBS-Pedagogy was created for elementary school, secondary school and AHS pupils, with one lesson per day. The FiBS-Foundation has developed a unique educational concept that meets the demands on the children in today’s world.
Based on her many years of practical experience with children and young people, Sieglinde Mühlberger worked with a professional team of pedagogues to develop a specially designed curriculum that can be integrated into the overall curriculum.
Csilla Határvölgyi (FiBS pedagogue from Hungary) has created 800 beautiful illustrations for this.
The school books as well as teacher’s manuals from first to eighth grade are available in three languages for each grade level – German, English and Hungarian.
By integrating the spiritual FiBS-Pedagogy into the current teaching curriculum, children and young people are prepared for an ethical and spiritual way of life.
- Development of ethical virtues
- Harmonious coexistence
- Developing esteem for parents, teachers and pupils
- To develop esteem and respect for other cultures, religions and all life
- To be able to help other people and living beings with joy
- Getting to know yourself and others better
As a result, they become loving, responsible citizens of the world who identify with the whole universe and thus recognize their relationship to the earth, to all living beings, whether human, animal or plant. In this way they can spread love and peace in the world and feel loved, understood and be there for others, which is of great importance for their soul.
FiBS-Pedagogy is a life aid for teachers and pupils.
It helps to ‘transform’ one’s own inner consciousness, to change and to develop it further and, as a result, to see oneself and the world around us in the right light and to understand it with the heart.
I believe that we carry a spark of that eternal light within us,
which must shine at the very bottom of being and
which our weak senses can only sense from afar.
To let this spark within us become a flame
and to make the divine real within us,
is our highest duty.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Silence exercises and meditation have an important place in the FiBS-Pedagogy. They help the children to concentrate better, to become calmer and they emerge from meditation stronger and full of energy. Children need time to go into silence and meditate in order to discover their inner spiritual richness, which is found in every person. This creates an awareness that allows them to realize that all people have emerged from the same divine light.
About 5 minutes of meditation every morning at the beginning of class creates a calm, concentrated and peaceful atmosphere for teachers and students, which is immediately noticeable and facilitates the lessons.
