Make Nature your teacher
Make Nature your teacher, instead of relying too much on books. The vast universe has many lessons to teach. Make your heart your preceptor. Esteem God as your best friend. He will never fail you, unlike most fait-weather friends in the world. I prefer to hear that you have earned a good name for your behaviour than praise for your scholarship. Do not calculate what money you can cam from your degrees. You must ask yourselves: "What good can I do to my family? What help can I render to my fellow men?" Education is not for securing a job. It is for acquiring knowledge and wisdom. It is unfortunate that education has been linked to jobs and earning money You must move among the people in a friendly and comradely spirit. Do not hate anyone. Follow the principle- "Help ever; hurt never.” Today many occupy high positions and earn fabulous salaries. How many of them do work that can justify the salaries they are paid? Men who receive .20,000 a month do not do even .20 worth of honest work. This is treachery to the nation. An educated person must give proper return for the salary he receives. Students must bear this in mind when they enter service. They must give adequate return for the salary they receive. That will give you job satisfaction and soothe your conscience. Our students are behaving in an exemplary manner. Whatever their background before joining the Institute, within a month the new students are transformed into ideal students. They develop commendable qualities. Boys and girls! Wherever you may go and whatever institutions in which you may work, bring a good name to the Institute and earn a good name for yourselves. Girl students who may get married should serve their in-laws in such a way that the good name of the institute is vindicated. The mother-in-law should be proud of a well-educated daughter-in-law coming from the Sai Institute.
