Education and Stress
Child’s education, scores and ranks have become a hot topic at tall
social gatherings. Whether it is a single or double income family, ever parents
is racing and forcing the child to race and meet the goals set by
school/college social standards, institutions of higher education, peer competition etc.
whether the child has the adequate compatibility is given a back seat.
Ultimately, it is the child, on whom the entire load is put. So naturally a
child is stressed, depressed sometimes and slowly becomes indifferent. Morning
study hours, monitored either by parents or tutors, school hours, evening
special or extra tutor hours, night completion of homework, and revision of
day’s I am indeed, pancaked. The child has no time to play and relax. He/she
has become a machine. Most of the time tuitions absorb the free hours of the child.
Has the modern education system led to an increasing dependence on coaching intuitions?
It seems to be so.
Many parents send their children to coaching classes our tuitions even
at a very early age. Right from the time of primary schooling these kids start
going to tuitions. This is where exactly a parent (if the parent is a high
school graduate)can easily manage to give extra drill or reinforcement to the
Child at home itself Probably, a little extra effort is needed on the parent’s
part. The child can learn, sitting in the lap of its mother or father. Why
should the child be denied of this privilege?
When the child passes into higher classes, certainly, it is beyond a
moderately educated parent they cannot coach subjects like Maths, English, and
Science So they send their children for tuitions to different places subject
wise. After school hours also children are over burdened and they are robbed of
their rest and entertainment. why do they need these extra hours of study? Our
children must get 90% and above in spite o fit, they don’t get admissions an
jobs . The result is depression, stress and suicide. So kids have to maximize
their output, even to qualify themselves to be part of the rat race. A child
become a factory as the selection criteria is dependent on various inputs like
time, money , food (energy) , comforts (rest), entertainment ) etc.
Thinkers like Rabindranath Tagore believed that nothing should be forced
on a child. A child should grow naturally. But education is becoming very
formal.-pen, paper, book, and guide, help book, sample papers, and add
computers ,CDs, internet also this list.
How to help the children. Parents Educationists and policy makers have
to come together. Of course, the students too. Students can avoid the extra
study hours n the name of tuitions by listening well in the classes, by being
focused on difficult areas and seeking doubt clarification with concern
subjects teachers. Teachers never deny this extra time a child seeks to learn
properly. Even school an arrange remedial teaching classes for weak learners,
and specially programmed study hours in the school premises itself (after
school hours) for the above average learns . of course, the extra coaching
hours and efforts of the teacher have to be rewarded befittingly. If school
authorities, teachers, parents and students work hand –in=hand, there wont be
any question of stress-for students, teachers (Who look for extremely good
result) parents and of course, the school/college authorities, the ranking of
which goes up easily.
Every job is self portrait of the person who did it. Autograph your work with excellence.
Always tell yourself ; The difference between running a business and running a business is “I”
Quote from the True Charm and power of Vedanta
On Freedom
and Self-Reliance.
The man who
wants money is striving for freedom- to get rid of the bondage of poverty.
Every action of man is worship, because the idea is to attain to freedom, and
all action, directly or indirectly tends to that.
One may gain
political and social independence, but if one is slave to his passions and
desires, one cannot feel pure joy of real freedom.
It is not
that when a man become free, he will stop and become a dead lump; but he will
be more active than any other being, because every other being acts only under
compulsion, he alone though freedom.
…freedom is
the goal…it is freedom alone that is desirable. That is what men struggle
after.
Unity is
knowledge diversity is ignorance . This knowledge is y our birthright…There
never were different religion in the world. We are all destined to have
salvation, whether we will it or not. You have to attain it in the long run and
become free, because it is y our nature to be free.
No one was
ever really taught by another each of us has to teach himself. The external
teacher offers only the suggestion which rouses the internal teacher to work to
understand things.
The eyes of
the whole world are now turned towards this land of India for spiritual food;
and India has to provide it for all the races. Here alone is the best ideal for
mankind; and Western scholars are now striving to understand this ideal which
is enshrined in our Sanskrit literature and philosophy and which has been the
characteristic of India all through the ages.
…The land
where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity,
towards purity towards calmness, above all, the land of introspection and of
spirituality-it is India.
When the
life-blood is strong and pure, no diseases germ can live in that body our
life-blood is spirituality. It is flows clear, if it flows strong and pure and
vigorous everything is right; political , social, any other material defects ,
even the poverty of the land, will all be cured if that blood is pure.
Political
greatness or military power is never the mission of our race, it never was.,
and mark my words, it never will be, But there has been the other mission given
to us, which is to conserve, to preserve, to accumulate… all spiritual energy
of the race…..
India must
conquer eth world , and nothing less than that is my ideal…We must conquer the
world or die there is no other alternative . the sign of life is expansion; we
must go out, expand, show life, or degrade fester, and die.
India will be
raised, not with the power of the flesh, but with the power of the spirit not
with the flag of destruction, but with the flag of peace and love….. Say not
that you are weak. The spirit is omnipotent.
……Every one
must be ready for it-the conquest of the whole world by India-nothing less that
that, and we must all get ready for it, strain every nerve for it….Up India,
and conquer the world with your spirituality! Ay, as has been declared on this
soil first, love must conquer hatred, hatred cannot conquer itself.
IF HE EXIST
