Chikkamagaluru: Sreesomashekara Swamiji of Pushpagiri Math said that children should be given good rites along with education.
He blessed the recently held Shree Gurusiddharameshwar Vidya Institute MJS School Anniversary.
Instead of making children property, make children property. Children can grow socially only when culture is given along with education. He warned that if they do not get good culture, there is a possibility of them becoming a social evil. Parents should always pay attention to the behavior of children. When we were ten years old, we could not get dressed properly. But now a ten-year-old child has grown up to stand on the stage and give a speech because of the current technological and scientific developments. One should know whether education is superior or intellect is superior. Vidya works for some time but intellect works for all time. You don’t need a degree to grow socially. Intelligence is needed. He said that if grown-up children take care of their parents, it is heaven, otherwise, it is hell.
Inaugurating the ceremony, BEO Raje Gowda said that children grow according to the culture taught by their parents at home and teachers at school. Even though the current school rules are a bit difficult, they should be followed by educational institutions. Schools are like temples. These temples are caste-free and have no restrictions. He advised keeping children away from the TV and mobile phones.
B.R. Jagadish, Executive Chairman of the organization, who was presiding, spoke. Malledevirappa, S.S. Chandra Shekhar spoke. Head Teacher Purnesh welcomed and Lakshmi greeted. Narrated by students Nishmitha and Bhumi. Later there was an interesting cultural program by the children.
