GURUDINAM

Today is Teacher's day.The day of the Teachers and students.And of the most learned president India had ever seen.
Therefore I thought ,in honour of Him as well all the teachers and students of the world I should share a chapter of my new book on ancient education in Vedic and Budhist India and how Nalanda and Valabhi universities functioned and who were the vicxe chancellors and teachers of these universities who helped in spreading knowledge nationally and internationally.

I receive 3 newspapers daily.When I opened the Hindu I saw a message from IGNOU ON PAGE 18 LOWER PART OF PAGE WITH 2 BEAUTIFUL QUOTATIONS.
ONE SAYS: a LIFE OF JOY AND HAPPINESS IS POSSIBLE ONLY ON THE BASIS OF KNOWLEDGE AND SCIENCE. FROM DR SARVEPALLY RADHAKRISHNAN HIMSELF.
THEN A MESAGE FROM IGNOU.
Great teachers dont just teach,they are mentors,advisors,role models,guides,and above all,shapers of great human beings.

Opening The Times of India I find page 10 entirely devoted to teachers and student and changing patterns of relationship of Guru and shishya.

Then I open the Malayalam daily and find no message related to teachers or to education.
What had happened ?Have the Malayalam media forgotten that today is teacher's day and a message of love,compassion,and importance of learning is needed for today's society ? It is sad that people forget the most important things in life and give importance to that which is least important .Education and values are the most important things in life.Without that all other things are wasted .
