Teachers! Teach your young pupils the ideals of Bharat's great sages, heroes and heroines, who upheld the highest virtues and set an example to the world. They should be taught to behave as ideal sons like Shravanakumar. One good son can redeem a whole family. Ekalavya exemplifies supreme devotion to the Guru. Prahlada should be held out as the supreme example of total faith in God. Teachers should instil such devotion to God in the young. In the name of secularism, governments should not interfere with the practice of their respective religions by the citizens. No one should criticize the creed of others. The Divinity that is adored by all religions is one and the same, though different names may be used. In the name of religion, violent conflicts should not be encouraged. Children should be taught to respect all religions. Teachers should also make children realise the true purpose of education. Education should be a preparation for righteous living and not for earning money. Good qualities are more valuable than money.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
