I thank whatever gods may…

Dear All,
Sixth of the Ten Commandments:
6) Swadhyaya Pravachandaabhyam na pramaditavyam - ( Hold on to self study and teaching)
These days one speaks of ‘Knowledge Workers’. It is interesting to note how the Upanishads, in the remote past of world history, gave so much importance to cultivation of love of knowledge and spread of knowledge to others. Self-study means always keeping ourself abreast of what is happening…

He discussed at length all walks of life –importance, impact and related problems thereof in particular. How was it then possible that he could remain indifferent to the role, significance and contribution of youth and women to the society, nation and humanity as a whole? Rather, he had sanguine thoughts about them. His views pertaining to youth and women were unique.…

“The ancient aphorism, ‘Education is that which liberates’ is as true today as it was before. Education here does not mean mere spiritual knowledge, nor does liberation signify only spiritual liberation after death. Knowledge includes all training that is useful for the service of mankind and liberation means freedom from all manners of servitude even in the present life. Servitude is of two kinds: slavery to domination from outside and one’s own artificial needs. The knowledge…

Dear All,
Forth of the Ten Commandments:
4. Acquire Wealth legitimately :( bhootyei na Pramaditavyam):
Upanishads did not preach poverty. They spoke of a healthy and prosperous life. The ideal of renunciation is not the ideal of poverty and agony but learning to help others with whatever we acquire.
The Upanishadic was a prosperous society. It was not a consumerist’s society but it was full of wealth and meet one’s needs.…

It was our belief that the love of possessions is a weakness to be overcome.
Its appeal is to the material part, and if allowed its way, it will in time disturb
one’s spiritual balance. Therefore, children must learn early the beauty of generosity.
