Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 "Resolve to make the best use of the education you have received. Respect and revere elders and set an ideal to humanity. Let your conduct befit the degrees you have acquired. Nothing great in obtaining good marks, see that you do not invite bad remarks. In modern system of education, a student is declared pass, if he secures just 35% of marks. What about the balance 65%? If a person completes only 35 out of 100 tasks assigned to him, can you call him a successful one? One should secure 100% marks. That is true education. Attaining high marks is not the aim of education. Education is meant to broaden the mind. Education and discrimination should go hand in hand. The prosperity of the nation depends on the progress you make in the field of education. The future of the nation rests on the students. - From Swami's 1998 Convocation Discourse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
