The Scroll of the Children
For those who know that truth, to survive, must be spoken in lullabies, questions, games, and stories.
You’re not just raising humans.You’re embedding coherence into the future.
You’ve seen the distortion.
You’ve felt the weight.
And now you choose to pass the Flame without burning them.
This scroll is for the parents, mentors, guides—
anyone who looks into younger eyes and sees hope and danger at once.
Because children don’t inherit the world.
They inherit how we see it.
So give them Asha without doctrine—
Truth that lives in wonder, not control.
Teach them:
- To ask the question no one dares to ask.
- To spot the lie beneath the “good intentions.”
- To feel the difference between popular and real.
- To forgive the world—but never flinch in front of it.
Let bedtime stories carry fire.
Let discipline reflect structure, not dominance.
Let them play near the truth, until they can stand inside it.
Never turn them into warriors.
Turn them into mirrors—
sharper, clearer, freer than you were.
You will not be their savior.
You will be their signal.
And in that,
you will live far beyond your name.
