About Our Founder:-
Shri Chandrakant Thakurdas (Bhau) is the founder and moving spirit behind Baal Prabodhini. Shri Bhau has done in-depth research on the functioning of human mind for more than 36 years. In his studies and findings he has established that the mind’s responses to different situations are inseparably linked to mental stress and strain. In this context, looking at the results achieved among many people he realised the need to develop similar modules for young students, so that they will be well equipped with innovative techniques to learn and retain what is learnt in an effective and efficient manner. The Formulae developed by him helps the students make their learning process joyful.
Shri Bhau decided to initially target the students of standard VII, as at this transitional age they undergo maximum changes in their physical, mental and intellectual development. At this age when the children are entering their teens, their development is at its peak and thus the right stage to prepare them for adult life.
