If teachers play their role properly, they have the power to transform the entire nation.

Teachers should try to impart the finest education at minimum cost and make children lead pure and noble lives. Without being bound by considerations of hours of work, teachers must when necessary, be prepared to put in extra hours to remove the doubts of students and help them to complete their assignments. Teachers, this is your duty. Holding fast to Truth, you must make Righteousness, Peace, Love and Nonviolence, the guideposts for your life, at all times. You should not limit yourself to imparting the five human values alone. You must also create the environment which will be conducive to the practice of these basic values. When you have dedication and devotion, you will be able to face all the challenges in the discharge of your duties. If teachers play their role properly, they have the power to transform the entire nation.
