Teachers day ideal for student reverence
Teachers day on September 05, tomorrow is celebrated across the nation in reverence by student community. On this day the students pay rich tributes to their teachers. In schools the function is awesome. On this day the student union takes over the administration and conducts the school the entire day which generally concludes with a sumptuous party by the students to the teachers.
In principle the birthday of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakhrishnan is celebrated as Teachers day. A honour to the visionary who made significant contribution in shaping Indian Education system. Dr Radhakhrishnan was the first Vice President for the Republic of India and was the second President. He was a teacher and is remembered as pride of the profession. And this day is in honour of Dr Radhakhrishnan who excelled as a teacher.
On this day the head boy of the school takes up the Correspondent role and the head girl becomes the Principal while the student pupil leaders take the roles of the teachers. The whole day is filled with fun and frolic. The teachers sit in classes while the students conduct the classes. The whole day moves at abreast with children dressed like elders walk through the corridors adding glitter to the celebrations. The lunch break is the happiest hour of the day when a sumptuous meal is served to the entire school at the dining room.. great occasion.
The post lunch session is filled with a variety of cultural programmes. Humorous skits, speeches and dances form the core part of the event. Then the students gift the teachers. In fact most teachers turn nostalgic after this event and some even share memories of their own school days. In the end as usual the whole school disperses after the head boy and head girl hand over their duties to the originals. And school becomes normal after a day of jubilation, the following day.
However the bonding between the students and the teachers develops with this event. Most of them develop a rapport that adds to the academics achievements of the students and aids to the progress of the educational institutes too. On the whole the day leaves an everlasting impression on one and all of the school or college. The teachers who enjoy this day every academic year, yet feel enthralled as the student bearers differ each year and their planning for the day too differs. On the students side, all of them feel elated and understand how much the teachers understand them. In fact this teachers day is the ideal day for bondage between the students and the teachers who are the second parents to the former.
Teacher’s
Day 2012 is celebrating as usual on the birthday of Dr Sarvepalli
Radhakhrishnan. A honour to the visionary who made significant
contribution in shaping Indian Education system. Dr Radhakhrishnan was
the first Vice President for the Republic of India and was the second
President. He was a teacher and is remembered as pride of the
profession. And this day is in honour of Dr Radhakhrishnan who excelled
as a teacher.
However as per the Hindu Myth 'Guru
Pournima' is considered as the day to pay reverence to the 'Guru' or
'Teacher' The full moon day in the month of Ashadha (July-August) is
known as Guru Pournami. This is traditionally the time when seekers
offer the Guru their gratitude and receive his blessings. This is the
concept oriented approach imbibed in the rich legacy of Hindu culture.
Well
the importance of this day is endless and might as well be celebrated
on both the days. As it means remembering our Gurus, but for whom, we
would not have scaled these peaks. Yes parents gave us 'jeevan' (life)
and Guru gave us gyan (knowledge). I remember an old saying about the
teacher who in modern days is called as a mentor. The parent is the
first teacher to the child while the teacher is the second parent to the
child. True in its larger meaning, the statement is worth its salt,
every word written.
Flash Back: Remember those nimble fingers
of yours that were held to write letters on the slate under the first
teacher's guidance. Then later the Maths sir in your fifth class, who
bribes you with chocolates and makes you learn the addition and
subtraction. When ever the addition was made, you got more chocolates
and you smiled. But when subtracting, chocolates were lesser on hand
and you frowned. Then the tenth class Biology teacher who gave undue
importance to you and spoke in lengths on an embarrassing session of
human anatomy and at the end you felt it as an adult class. Then in
Eleventh (+1), the physics sir who was puny and always used to run to
the washroom. Next was your thermodynamics lecturer in graduation and
last not the least your professor who taught you management principles.
Well the list is endless.
And now let's leave it at that and come down to the present context. Recently I went to my home
town with my sixteen-year-old daughter and on her insistence we
visited my school, a small place. There we met my old teacher, with
shivering-bent body he looked up to recognizes me. When I recalled him
my name and about my parents, slowly he realized and smiled in
approval. I hope this is a regular experience to one and all. But the
fact out here is the teacher remained at the same place but after
learning from them We have scaled unknown peaks in profession.
That
very moment I realized that this was circle of life. But do we have
such dedicated teachers today, yes of course. However the teacher might
be, he or she must be reverred for their inclination to see the best of
you on any given podium. They would sincerely pray and strive for your
excellence. That is an ideal teacher and offering your obeisance to
such a soul, is one's ardent duty, to upkeep the Guru-Shishya
principle. Thanks sir for what I am today, your blessings.... (With
