108th BLOG POST -->>
Greetings of the day!!
Yesterday was at Bhiwani and at night I was
sitting for one hour with a senior advocate Banwari Lal of Bhiwani District
Court. Last time I was meet him at his cabin in court and this time I was at
his home for family function. He takes me alongside his home where no one was
there. He gives the vision on several things from ancient to modern era. Best
part of talking was about Guidance by elder or we can say Guru. To be success
in life we need guidance along with hard work. For anyone’s success, peoples
are sayings it’s “Chamatkaar” but in reality it is the process of right guidance
and hard work. And result of it is “Chamatkaar”. During talking he was saying
an experienced line that “Teacher is the Advocate of Law and Advocate is the
teacher of Law. Both teacher and advocate are doing almost same thing before
going to their field. As teacher is preparing to teach in class and advocate is
preparing to fight case in court. During study or preparation they are leaning
things properly”.
Learning can change life divinely. But
there is no royal road to learning. Any sentence having the word life means
someone is talking or flooding philosophy. Is there anything better that we, as
human beings, have got as a grant from the almighty? I will say no. Every
second is bliss to me. Even when life is tough, I celebrate it somewhere within
my soul because I know that in future, some day, this shall go and I would
again be running in a crystal clear environment. Hence, when I talk about life,
I make it sure that I talk about learning new things. Even when you will learn
a new thing daily, you will find uncountable number of things far away from
your knowledge and its scope. And this scope has to be widened. Learning needs
teacher. And therefore, teachers are respected in life almost like the way
parents are respected. But is learning really a pure activity in today's
society? Maybe not. A lot of things is changed with change is generation.
Based
on my three years of teaching experience, I can say that learning is only
truthful and pure when teacher is selfless. If there is greed of anything other
than having their students as educated most learned in the horizon, then I this
process of learning is more of a business. I always speak in my class “beta
ye class jo ab chal rahi hain dobara nahi aayagi… aaj yhan jo sikh ke jaoge wo
puri zindagi yad rahega… agar ab yha dhyan lagakar nahi padha to isi class ke
topic ko sikhne ke liye kisi coaching institute ko join karoge etc etc…”. And a
motivational lecture starts from here for almost 10 minutes. Even I don’t hesitate to punish the students
in class for their mistake. When I talk about learning, I am not considering
just academics but anything that we learn in our day-to-day life or even
occasionally. Doing any type of technical or non technical course, singing
classes, language speaking classes, dancing classes, swimming classes, driving
classes, yoga classes etc all comes into the process of learning. And it's a
myth that a person can excel only in one phenomenon. If a person believes in
committing himself to life considering that life is all about being closer to
God, he may achieve excellence in almost every time he tries his hand upon.
Hence, one can go on joining every class that he finds in his vicinity.
Now a
day all these classes are less of a pure relationship between a teacher and the
student but just business. In Delhi like city, I’ve seen such teachers who are
in teaching profession just to promote their own business like online teaching
portal, own academic branch at specific location, to promote their published
book etc. and during lecture class at least five minute they are speaking about
such business. These days even the students know that teachers are into the
profession due to recession or some other targets and tragedies, which is
either big or small. There are very less people who are in teaching profession
of any kind by their will.
So
before going to any institution, make sure to deal appropriately about your
learning course. Bargain accurately is the key process and need to escape of
these businessmen in the disguise of teachers. At the end up you may be looted
or unlearned because in the
quest to learn something new, we forget that we are in an open market where
everyone is competing with peers to have their profit and loss statement in a
pragmatic situation. And in the formalities and to sound humble and a good
future student, a favorite one too, we pretend ourselves to be very sweet. And
this sweetness ends up bringing sour experiences in our smooth life. Once if you are looted, you will start
getting frustrated and this frustration will result into exasperation because
you will find it very difficult and anti-culture to argue against someone who
is your teacher. You can feel here what will happen when we face such
situation. What happened here is that you end up shying and remain quiet
even when you know that you are not leaning by guidance the way you wanted and
the way you were promised.
I’ve experience of educational society
and affiliation process of technical institute. And later as a head, I
experienced as handling institutions internal issues. Based on my
experience, I’ll also like to add that if you are getting collaborated with any
of your relatives or friends to launch a business or are going to work under
them, make it sure that without any shame, you tell everything that you need
initially itself. Because once the business or the session of your work would
begin, it will become very hard to fight with the same relatives or friends
regarding decision, money, future plans and decisions related to improvement
regarding business etc. otherwise you will end up getting frustrated and taking
a decision that might spoil your peace for a long period of time. And always
try to be loyal in such things. Only one lie can ruin everything. So if can’t
handle doesn’t indulge in such cases. Because now days it seems to be quite
impossible, indulge but only when you clarify your terms before that person
turns into your teacher and your period of getting dominated begins. For what
I’m writing about my experience here, you might feel is useless right now, but
when you will face this experience, I am sure you will remember this out of the
box post of mine. So try to read these lines again and make it sure that you
follow the guidelines next time you are about to start learning something new
in life with the help of a guidance, trainer or teacher.
Thanks
