Can Online classes replace Teachers?

अज्ञानतिमिरान्धस्य ज्ञानाञ्जनशलाकया । चक्षुरून्मीलितं येन तस्मै श्री गुरुवे नमः ॥ Salutation to the noble Guru, who has opened the eyes blinded by ignorance with the collyrium stick of knowledge. A person is like pure water, it is a teacher who mixes knowledge in it. i once again salute and thank all the teachers across the globe. But today i would like to ask, who or what is a teacher? A teacher is an immense ocean of knowledge, love and care. But today how many actual epitomes of the word teacher can we see in the real world? Frankly speaking, the number is very low. Today, most of the students aspire, or are forced to aspire to become either an IIT engineer or an AIIMS doctor. only those who don't make it, left with no other options take up teaching as a profession. I'm sorry, i am not generalizing... There are indeed great Gurus even today, but this disinterest towards teaching profession is a growing misery in o

When to Jump Out?

Put a frog into a vessel fill with water and start heating the water. As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjust its body temperature accordingly. The frog, being a Poikilotherm keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog cannot adjust anymore. At this point the frog decides to jump out. The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting with the rising water temperature. Very soon the frog dies. What killed the frog? Think about it! I know many of us will say the boiling water. But the truth about what killed the frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out. We all need to adjust with people & situations, but we need to be sure when we need to adjust & when

छात्र राजनीती (Student politics)

घटिया लोगो द्वारा चलाई जाने वाली हुकुम्मत में रहना आपके राजनीति में हिस्सा न लेने का सबसे बड़ा दण्ड है। दुनिया के सबसे मशहूर राजनैतिज्ञ और तत्वज्ञानी Plato ने यह चेतावनी मानवसमूह को दिया था । विद्यार्थी जीवन में राजनीति का योगदान और उसके महत्व पर चर्चा करने का यह अतिउचित समय है ।आज भारत के चारो तरफ विद्यार्थीगण अनेक प्रकार के विचारधाराओ से प्रभावित है , और यह कोई नया प्रतिभास नहीं है । इस देश की मिटटी को साम्राज्यवादी शक्तियों से आज़ाद कराने से लेकर आज 7 दशको के बाद देश को राजनैतिक नैतृत्व प्रदान करने तक छात्र राजनीती का महत्त्व अत्यधिक महत्वपूर्ण रहा है । मनुष्य एक सामूहिक जानवर है और आज भारत के प्रजातान्त्रिक समूह में राजनीती दैनिक जीवन का अटूट हिस्सा बन चूका है । आज के विद्यार्थी कल के नागरिक है , कल वे मतदाता बनेंगे और इन्ही में से कुछ आगे चलकर देश को चलने हेतु राजनीती में आएँगे भी । अतः भारत के प्रजातान्त्रिक व्यवस्था को सम्मानजनक बनाये रखने के लिए अनिवार्य है कि पढ़े लिखे, समर्थ एवं अनुभवी लोग राजनीती में हिस्सा ले । अगर आज आप उनके सामने राजनीती क

क्या भारत में स्त्री सशक्तिकरण हो रहा है? Women empowerment debate ( HINDI )

अगर आप एक आदमी को शिक्षित करते है तो आप एक अकेले व्यक्ति को शिक्षित कर रहे है ; परंतु अगर आप एक महिला को शिक्षा प्रदान कर रहे है तोह आप एक पूरी पीढ़ी को सशक्त बना रहे है। नारी सशक्त है यानी भारत माता सशक्त है । दुर्गा, सरस्वती, पारवती, लक्ष्मी; हाँ दोस्तों ये वही देवियो के नाम हैं जिन्हें हम अक्सर पूजते है । परंतु दोस्तों आय दिन हम उन्हें हर प्रकार के शारीरिक एवं मानसिक दंड पहुंच रहे है । हमने सिर्फ उन्हें भगवन का दर्ज दिया है, वास्तव में तो हम उनके प्रति सम्मान, सद्भावना एवं प्रेम की भावना रखते ही नहीं । आजकल अखबार महिलाओ के खिलाफ हिंसा से सम्बंधित कम से कम एक समाचार के बिना अधूरा सा लगता है । शहरो में तो रात के 9 बजने के बाद बहार निकलना खतरों से खेलने के समान है । सच कहे तोह भारत स्त्रियों के खिलाफ हिंसा का मुख्य केंद्र बन चूका है । ऐसे शर्मनाक एवं निराशाजनक हालात में हम कैसे कह सकते है कि भारत में स्त्री सशक्तिकरण हो रहा है ? एक अंतराष्ट्रीय सर्वे के अनुसार भारत स्त्री सशक्तिकरण के सन्दर्भ में 115 स्थान पर आती है । क्या यह बात आप सबको गौरव एवं अभिमान

Youth Bulge in India... an oppurtunity or challenge?

“Youth is above all a collection of opportunities. Give me a generation of youth and I will transform the whole world” Said the Vladimir Lenin, the great leader of the Russian revolution. Today India is a young nation, with 605 million people under the age of 25.This means that for the next 60 yrs. we would have a youthful, dynamic and productive workforce when the rest of the world including china is ageing. Gone are the days when India’s population growth was considered only a curse. Today the buzz word in the world about India is Demographic dividend, which is nothing but a period in time when a faster growth of employable population or labour force takes place as compared to overall population. According to economists this dividend usually lasts for half a century. In the coming years we are going to have a pool of young citizens capable of working, earning, saving and spending. This fact has made the eyes of the world turn towards India. The econo

The Coffin...

One day not too long ago the employees of a large company in Mumbai returned from their lunch break and were greeted with a sign on the front door. The sign said: "Yesterday the person who has been hindering your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral in the room that has been prepared in the gym." At first everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues had died, but after a while they started getting curious about who this person might be. The excitement grew as the employees arrived at the gym to pay their last respects. Everyone wondered: "Who is this person who was hindering my progress? Well, at least he's no longer here!" One by one the employees got closer to the coffin and when they looked inside it they suddenly became speechless. They stood over the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul. There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyone who looked inside

India of my dreams

15th august 1947, PM Jawaharlal Nehru declared from the ramparts of red fort, “When the world sleeps India shall rise to life and freedom.” From that moment, when long suppressed classes found its utterance, India for Indians has remained not just a free nation to live in but also an abode of hopes and dreams and aspirations. Our forefathers have put in their blood and sweat in India’s making. We in our times not only have the moral obligation to fulfil their dreams but also dream. Dreams that when materialised by relentless efforts of its citizenry will truly reinstate our motherland the glory it deserves. As India steps into the advanced world marching on to close to 7% GDP growth an year, it is only apt to dream for more. India is going to witness tremendous growth in its infrastructural capabilities be it road, rail, air traffic, energy or any sector of modern life. It is not a dream but an assured forecast. We will develop. What remains to be dreamt ar
