We all come to this with a of them, learning. and moving on. In fact, at every step, we are seekers of knowledge. We have to learn and move on to the next Gigha plane. This goes on in our world's journey of self-completion. The day we realise our purpose for existence on this earth, that very day we become enlightened, or the learned one. The irony is that unlike our yesteryear education, where Gurukul Parampara existed and every learning was associated with a blessing from Guru, education in today's parlance has become commercial and money-oriented. From Guru to Shishya, everyone is seeking education to make money out of it. Lost are the traditions, the value system, and the orientation in education. It is time that educationists and academicians give it a serious thought, and reorient and revamp our education system.
