Beyond Learning

| |

Aim of Education is not to make one merely to acquire knowledge for the enjoyment of worldly wealth, but for living a just, human life, enabling the individual to contribute his legitimate duty to build an equitable society where all would be able to do so for the betterment of humanity.

In fact philosophy has taken root not in the portals of temple of learning - universities. But on the banks of free flowing gigantic river beds, lofty heights of mountains, deep forests, sea shore, dreary deserts. All on the lap of mother nature. This pertinent fact makes the wise quire different from the so called "learned people" whose superiority(assumed) debars them from sharing their natural gift of knowledge with the have-nots. If only one comes out of that Self imposed shell he could know the real value of life.

Wisemen with their undaunted courage, intense involvement after much toil from the attacks from within and without have come out successufully with a missionary zeal to serve man kind irrespective of caste, creed and nationalites. They bare all natural and human barriers and reach out to help all mankind as a whole.

A recent study of UNICEF puts on board that of the total world population of 80% of so called knowledgable only 20% are wise. Knowledgable lot feel sad for the un-fortunate illiterate. Whereas those lot feel jealous of the fortunate few learned lot. They look out for guidance from wise men who are inspired with missionary zeal to serve. Wisemen riseup to such situations and follow an un-biased path on the proper line of thinking among at thire lofty goals and serve without any expectation. The humanity as a whole irrespective of any man made differentiations they discover the real urge in men. Respecting others, win their hearts.

Knowledge that blossoms into happiness by knowing the true value of each individual. Show kindness to all that leaps one to a life of possession of laudable qualities and attainment of holistic nature.

Their earnest efforts, true involvement, their zeal for real service without any expectations do help them to win the hearts of others for whom they work.

We get all when we give up all our striving to worldly life. The dedicated sharing of happines helps one to live in true enjoyment which could never be dreamt by ordinary education. From any institution for learning.

So real wisdom can be got only with a spirit of full true involvement in any work on hand. With a sincere team spirit a mining to achieve the laudable goal with full co-operation, and co-ordinate with nature and people living in the society and not to run away from that, since true renunciation is not to leave all but to love all. If one cannot love people in a society where he lives. How can you expect him to love others?

So wisdom lies not in acquiring mere knowledge but to live up to it in full co-operation and coordination without any expectation of any kind or manner. One should be prepared to sacrifice for such a life and serve without aspiring for fame or name.
