Quite impressive. (At times, he resembles a 'dancing baby' though!

)

This just proves 'mujjanma vaasana'.

The baby is very cute and alert. But he is not doing it through tALA consciousness. Most of you must be familiar with the 'Suzuki Technique'. It is quite possible to make any child a wizard through controlled exposure. The parents in this case (I assume I saw them in the video) are very encouraging type and also musically knowledgeable. The child would have been well-rewared for correct performance - Almost like training the parrot to talk. The 'reinforcemnt' in a fostering atmosphere can work miracles. I am not recommending you to try it since a one-sided development of skills can permanently damage the psychological development of the child. Not that I am suggesting that this is a forced development. The guestures of the child suggest plenty of imitative behaviour. Just during the Navaratri I visited a house where a three-year-old child was giving a demostration of narrating a 'weather forecast' (as seen on TV) with astounding accuracy and elegance. His parents confided that the child used to watch 'TV weather forecasting' almost continuously for hours and days (In a way it was an 'electronic' babysitter

Let me conclude by quoting Edison

the gumka and other gesticulations can not be tutored or engineered. the kid is definitely a wonder. the main difference between a prodigious talent and regular talent is the rapidity with which the prodigious person learns. that is what we call as 'vasana' through 'jenma'.
while we may wish the kid all the best we may also be careful not to write sarcastic and sadistic remarks.
Good wishes to the parents too!
