Protecting Parental Rights Against Eastern Indoctrination in Schools

The recent controversy surrounding Eastern mysticism in public schools exposes a dangerous trend that threatens the values of religious freedom and parental authority across America.
In Chicago, a Christian student named Mariyah Green became a rallying point for concerned parents after securing a $150,000 legal settlement.
Green alleged that she was coerced into participating in a meditation program called "Quiet Time," which included chanting Sanskrit prayers during a Hindu ceremony known as Puja.
Her case has raised alarms about how seemingly innocuous mindfulness initiatives can carry profound spiritual implications, leading to accusations of indoctrination in public education.
The obsession with meditation and yoga in schools has taken root under the guise of emotional wellness.
Programs claiming to be secular often have foundations deeply embedded in Eastern religious traditions, ultimately reshaping children's beliefs without proper consent or transparency.
Since the introduction of Transcendental Meditation by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 1960s, techniques masked as secular have infiltrated classrooms, misleading parents and students alike.
While marketed as stress-reduction strategies, these practices serve to align children with ideologies that conflict with many families' religious values.
In California, parents successfully raised legal challenges against school yoga programs on similar grounds, illustrating the escalating tension between education policy and religious freedom.
It's clear the push for mindfulness in schools is more than a trend—it is part of a larger agenda to erode traditional values and reshape the worldview of the next generation.
Parents now bear the responsibility of remaining vigilant against these encroachments on their rights.
As schools increasingly incorporate these spiritually derived programs into their curriculum, the need for parental discretion and informed consent becomes all the more pressing.
Maintaining an awareness of what is being taught in the classroom is essential to ensure that the integrity and beliefs of families are not compromised.
Rising above the rhetoric, communities must unite to advocate for modifications in educational practices that respect religious diversity and safeguard children's constitutional rights.
Parents are encouraged to speak out, opt out of these programs for their children, and hold schools accountable for the ideological narratives they promote, ensuring that public education remains focused on fostering genuine learning rather than spiritual indoctrination.
