FAQ’s
A) Under question no. B7, “Kindergarten” is not listed as an option. So, if a Kindergarten child wants to attempt this survey, what is the option to tick?
Ans: Please tick “Other” & in the description box, you can type Kindergarten.
B) What are the questions that a very young child can attempt in this survey?
Ans: When this questionnaire was tested on kindergarten children, it was found that they could answer only a maximum of 3 questions. They were question nos. C1, C3, C17. When it came to C17, they could relate only to family/ friends. (Elders need to help by ticking required questions nos. regarding age, gender, etc in personal information form).
We also found that even children starting from the age of elementary school (6 or 7 years) could attempt very few questions unless focussed spiritual training has been imparted to them and they receive strong translating/ explanatory support from elders to understand the questions.
But children of 8 or 9 years of age could attempt: C1, C3, C4, C13, C14, C17, C20, C22, C23, C24, C35, C36, C37. Also, they could be guided for understanding and then answer B14, B15, B16, B17, C38, C39, C40, C41, C42, C43, D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D8, D9, D10, etc.
However, indigo children/ those trained under influence of Spiritual Gurus/ who have experienced being in the vicinity of Spiritual Gurus have NOT been tested. Therefore, no knowledge exists on what is possible for these children. It is open for children to experiment with this survey.
