Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Om Sri Sathya Sai Ganeshaaya Namaha! Sairam to Sai Family ! FROM DIVINE DISCOURSE: 17.8.2005 Embodiments of Love ! 1) Right from a child to a learned old man, everyone is interested in reading books and acquiring knowledge. But in what way are they benefited by the acquisition of bookish knowledge? Such education can only help you to eke out a livelihood. Right from a pauper to a millionaire, everybody wants his children to be well educated. Parents are prepared to spend any amount of money and they even borrow money (even beyond their means) to provide quality education to their children. 2) In spite of the fact that the parents face a lot of hardship in educating their children, the children do not have any gratitude towards their benefactors. They do not introspect, "Who is responsible for all my development? Who has made me what I am today?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
