Life is a song-sing it.Life is a game-play it.Life is a challenge-meet it.Life is a dream-realize it.Life is a sacrifice-offer it.Life is a love-enjoy it.-Sai Baba

Good friends,good books and a sleepy conscience:this is the ideal life.

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.-Charles Darwin

Rabindranath Tagore quotes on teachers & students

  • "A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "The main object of teaching is not to give explanations, but to knock at the doors of the mind." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "The most important lesson that man can learn from life, is not that there is pain in this world, but that it is possible for him to transmute it into joy." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "The young student sits with his head bent over his books, and his mind straying in youth's dreamland; where prose is prowling on the desk and poetry hiding in the heart." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "We sit inert, like dead specimens of some museum, while lessons are pelted at us from on high, like hailstones on flowers." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • " Religion is not a fractional thing that can be doled out in fixed weekly or daily measures as one among various subjects in the school syllabus. It is the truth of our complete being, the consciousness of our personal relationship with the infinite." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "When we accept any discipline for ourselves, we try to avoid everything except that which is necessary for our purpose; it is this purposefulness, which belongs to the adult mind, that we force upon school children. We say, "Never keep your mind aler." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
  • "Children are living beings - more living than grown-up people who have built shells of habit around themselves. Therefore it is absolutely necessary for their mental health and development that they should not have mere schools for their lessons, but a world whose guiding spirit is personal love." ~ Rabindranath Tagore
