From SriSriAnna's Words ......


Better than one who goes on buying fields without cultivating, is one who cultivates his only field. Similarly better than one who goes on studying all Sasthras without following its essence, is one who after studying one good book practices it in his life.

On Education ......

One who wants to become a teacher should study and become one. How can one without education become a teacher ? Likewise one who does not know about God should not speak about God. How can one talk when one himself doesn't know ? (But education is not required for Worldly experience. Does one require spectacles to see a elephant ?)

From SriSriAnna's Words ......

On Education ......


Once a dumb man had a wonderful dream. To convey it he was gesturing to one and all in many ways. Many who saw his gestures understood in different ways. Similar is the plight of the words of Mahapurushas. God remains beyond words.

On Education ......


Flowers from many plants are used to tie a garland, Similarly the teachings of Mahapurushas will contain the principles of many Sasthras.

From SriSriAnna's Words ......

On Education ......


A flower has both honey and fragrance together. Women get the fragrance and the bees get the honey. Similarly all the Bakthy Sasthras have both philosophy and leelas together. The philosophies are enjoyed by Gnanis and the leelas are enjoyed by devotees.
