Pillar 3: The Legacy (Tanav’s Journey)
"The Ascent of the Next Generation: Mastery, Music, and Mentorship."
"True mastery is found when discipline meets a regulated heart. This pillar celebrates the journey of the next generation—from the precision of national robotics and the vibration of Grade 8 music to the selfless stewardship that has earned recognition from Blue Peter and the Jack Petchey Foundation."
The Harmonized Pulse
"Music as a Bridge to Mastery."
"In our sanctuary, we treat sound as a form of medicine. My son, Tanav, has spent years experimenting with the vibration of music to ground his nervous system and find his unique voice. This journey has been one of discipline, joy, and deep resonance:
The Mastery: Currently working toward his Grade 8 in Flute at age 14, Tanav uses the breath-work of his instrument to maintain his inner calm.
The Scholarship: His dedication was recognized with a Music Scholarship to his senior school, proving that when a child finds their rhythm, they can reach extraordinary heights.
The Collective Voice: From school choirs to the orchestra, Tanav contributes his light to the whole, understanding that every note matters in the village's symphony.
"Sharing the Sound: Music as Service."
"Mastery is most beautiful when it is shared. Beyond the grades and scholarships, Tanav uses his flute as a vessel for community healing. By performing at local community events and providing 'live sound baths' for our Harrow mental health groups, he brings a layer of peace that words cannot reach.
Watching him share his sound with those navigating their own heavy ledgers is a reminder that we are all instruments. When we tune ourselves to a frequency of kindness, we don't just play music; we shift the energy of the entire room."
The Architecture of Logic
"From Lego League to VEX IQ: Engineering Kindness."
"In our sanctuary, we value the balance between the fluid and the structured. My son’s journey through the world of robotics is a testament to the power of a focused mind and a regulated nervous system. What began as a childhood love for Lego League evolved into a sophisticated mastery of engineering, design, and code.
The VEX IQ Season: Navigating the high-pressure environment of competitive robotics, Tanav’s team achieved a coveted place at the UK National Championships. Beyond the technical rankings, his contributions were honored with a trilogy of prestigious awards that speak to his mind and his heart:
The Innovation Award: Recognizing a unique and creative solution to a complex engineering problem—proof of a mind that thinks outside the standard 'modern pulse.'
The Judges Award: Granted to the team that displays exemplary effort, interview skills, and a professional 'ledger' of their design process.
The Team Sportsmanship Award: This was at the finals for their outstanding courtesy, helpfulness to all, and unwavering kindness in the heat of competition.
This project proves that whether we are coding a robot or cleansing a chakra, the most important element we bring to the task is the quality of our character."

"From National Finalist to Global Mentor."
"The cycle of learning is only complete when we begin to teach. After achieving his place at the UK National Championships, Tanav’s journey in VEX IQ reached an international milestone.
The Mentorship Experiment: Having mastered the 'Architecture of Logic,' Tanav stepped into a guiding role. He mentored a younger robotics team, sharing his technical insights and his philosophy of 'Kindness in Competition.' Under his guidance, this younger team excelled, eventually traveling to the International Competitions in the United States.
Watching him navigate the complexities of coaching—transferring his knowledge of code and character to a new generation—is the most profound 'Project' of all. It proves that the most stable energy is the kind we give away to help others rise."
The Ascent of Light (Jack Petchey Award)
"Service, Stewardship, and the Jack Petchey Award."
"A core pillar of our work is empowering the next generation to recognize their own internal light. My son, Tanav, has embodied this journey through his work with the Arts for Life Project, a charity dedicated to supporting neurodivergent young people.
After attending sessions as a participant, Tanav stepped into the role of a steward—offering kindness and support to his peers. His commitment culminated in a physical and energetic feat: climbing Mount Snowdon to raise vital funds for the charity. For his outstanding contribution and his heart-led leadership, Tanav was honored with the Jack Petchey Award. This project is a living example of how regulating the nervous system leads to a capacity for great service."
"The highest peak we can climb is the one where we reach back to pull another soul upward."

The Green Badge Legacy
"From the Living Room to Blue Peter: A Commitment to the Earth."
"Our family’s dedication to the environment eventually caught the eye of a British institution. Tanav was featured on Blue Peter after earning his Green Badge—a recognition of his deep love for the planet and his creative approach to recycling.
The film crew joined us at our home to capture Tanav in his element: transforming 'waste' into intricate arts and craft models. It was a joyful celebration of his ability to see the potential in what others discard. This badge isn't just a piece of plastic; it’s a symbol of a young 'Pranic Experimentor' who understands that how we treat our materials is a direct reflection of how we treat our world."
