Guru Mahima : Why teachers are exalted - Swami Tejomayananda

- January 10, 2021

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monday, January 11, 2021. 09:48. AM. -------------------------------------------------------- In the Yoga Vasishta, Rama states that nothing is superior to knowledge of the Self and to the spiritual teacher who knows thatSelf. We can neither describe the glory of this knowledge nor the exalted state of the teacher — all our words will always be inadequate. -------------------- Guru mahima refers to the glory or greatness of the master. But, the guru's exalted status cannot easily be fathomed by those who have not come in contact with one. It is said, the Upanishads reveal their meaning to that student who has the same supreme devotion for the guru as he has for God. They state that even if a person is totally ignorant spiritually, but serves an enlightened master with complete sincerity and dedication, he will be liberated. Such is guru mahima. ------------------------------ The greatness of t...

Dr. S. RADHAKRISHNAN’S EDUCATIONAL IDEAS :

- February 20, 2016

1. INTRODUCTION : Education is a special discipline and theory and practice of education deserves to receive a special attention. According to Sathya Sai Baba, “An education system in country is a bank on which the people can draw a cheque for the upliftment of the society”. The organization of such a bank needs to be solemnised and progressive. It is only the contribution of great thinkers in the field of education can guide the planners to have this organization on sound footings.

In such a system there were some basic principles and postulates some ideals, rules and regulations which we have implemented in the right earnest in ideal educational situations. Great thinkers of contemporary India have given their verdict on the basic principles as well as needed reflections. One of the m...
