| The world's noblest profession but the most undervalued, thankless profession is that of teachers. If you have ever reflected seriously on the role of a teacher and his/her influence in shaping your life, you will find this book both inspiring and enlightening. True, we have come a long way from our ancient tradition which held the teacher as an exemplar, a role-model, guru and mentor; but Dada J P Vaswani tells us how the teacher can still be a force to reckon with today, in the spiritual, intellectual and emotional unfolding of the students. Inspired by the insights of his Master, Sadhu Vaswani, who was himself a great educationist and vastly admired and revered Professor and Principal, Dada J P Vaswani reveals new facets of the ideal teacher; a lamp-lighter, a sculptor, a builder, a moulder and shaper of the Spirit, a gardener who cultivates character, a torch-bearer and transmitter of values and ideals, and above all -- a friend! Dada's profound observations are all the more valuable, coming as they do from an ideal, top-ranking, award-winning star student who turned out to be a much loved and respected teacher and one of India's foremost spiritual leaders! Turn the pages of this book and get a few glimpses of Dada's memorable portrait of an ideal teacher! |
