Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam - Aug. 17, 2005

[Guest guest]

Education is not for mere living; it is for leading a life that is

more meaningful and worthwhile. There is no harm if it is also used

for seeking a gainful employment; but, the educated must be aware that

it is not the be all and end all of education. Again, education is not

for developing the faculty of argument, criticism, or exhibiting your

mastery over language or logic. That study is the best which teaches

you to conquer this cycle of birth and death, which gives you the

mental equipoise that is not affected by the prospect of death, or the

blessings or blows of fate.
