Yes answer is : A TEACHER, A GURU.

Today on the occasion of Teacher's day, I deeply bow to all my gurus, my teachers, my life makers.

Teachers’ Day in India falls on September 5, marking the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, a revered educator, philosopher and India’s second President.

A teacher or guru is a role played by many individuals throughout our journey. Our task is to recognize these guiding presences at every stage of life and honour them.

 

Our first guru is our PARENTS: 

They grant us life, teach us to walk and talk and in-still fundamental values. 

CARE FOR THEM


Next in line is our GRAND PARENTS: 

They offer boundless love and guide us from lifetimes of experience.

LOVE THEM 


Our next guru is our ACADEMIC TEACHERS: 

They illuminate the world for us, equip us with knowledge and concepts and prepare us for success. 

RESPECT THEM


Our next guru is our SPIRITUAL GURU: 

They are always there to induce right values and show us right path to reach our ultimate goal of life.  

BOW TO THEM WITH RESPECT

Our next guru is our LIFE-PARTNER: 

Its a mutual role. In a healthy partnership, each supports the other without dominating, becoming a guru through mutual growth and respect.

UNDERSTAND THIS

Our next guru is our BROTHER-SISTERS: 

They become our role model and emotional support. We can learn from their actions and efforts.

LISTEN TO THEM


Our next guru can be your FRIENDS (UNSEEN GURUs) : 

Friends guide, support and care for us in informal but powerful ways, teaching compromise, empathy, and true solidarity.

BE WITH THEM

Our ultimate guru is INNER VOICE: 

This voice will always be reflecting your personality shaped by all gurus in life.

LISTEN TO IT.

At every phase of life, there is someone guiding you. Take their hand, let their wisdom help you move toward your path with ease and purpose.

A rough stone transforms into a shining diamond only when shaped by a skilled hand. In the same way, a person can become a true personality when his/her inner qualities are refined by GURU. 

Teaching is a noble profession, unique in its nature, because a teacher’s success is reflected in the achievements of their students. It requires immense patience, deep knowledge, and countless other qualities. A true teacher views life through the student’s eyes and lights the way forward. 

Honor your teachers for their blessings at every stage of your life. Your parents, academic mentors and spiritual guides are your most priceless treasures.

Respect them: Not just with words : But by walking the path they show: keep them in your heart always. 


Today on the occasion of Teacher's day, let's work on this and prove to be a true STUDENT and a true GURU of your siblings/friends/life-partners/kids...

🙏

An UMBRELLA mindset: Feeling calm in life's Rainy Moments

Rain is natural. Are we able to stop it?  Are we able to avoid going in rain?   Answer is NO ,   Rather we  CARRY AN UMBRELLA & Enjoy the moment .   Same way,  If unpredictable response comes from our loved-ones in life, what should we do? TAKE AN UMBRELLA APPROACH.   Let me explain in brief: Rain is natural but we invented umbrella ☔ to protect ourselves from it. This simple act conveys deep truth. It tells us that at times we face situations which we can't change, in that case we need to adapt to people as we do with seasons.  Unpredictable behavior or harsh words from loved ones are like rain. We expect warmth or support, but instead we might feel criticism or indifference.    We can not change nature of our closed ones but we can surely adapt to them in a way that protects our peace and brings joy in the moment as we do while walking with umbrella in the rain. Adaptability here doesn't mean giving up, ignoring or leaving the rela...

Be Like Salt: Quietly Powerful, Gently Essential

 What a beautiful and wise thought...... "Be like salt — present just enough to be essential, never too much to be taken for granted, and never so little to be ignored." means,  Try to build your personality like salt. People have habit of taking you for granted if you are always good to them. So never let anyone overuse you. At the same time, don’t be so absent that they forget your worth.   Like salt, which enhances flavour without overpowering, one's influence should be significant but not overwhelming.
