Address & Interaction with the students of Sirsa
“I am born with
wings” “When I wish upon a
star, Makes no difference who I am.
Anything my heart desires Will come to me”
I am delighted to be with the students of Sirsa and interact
with the students, teachers and staff members. My greetings to all of you. Dear
friends, when I am in front of large number of youth of this
region, I am thinking what thoughts I can share with you. I
realize how the contributions of the youth in the past have continuously contributed
to the world of today in many fields. I
would like to assert that “No youth today need to fear about the future”. How?
The ignited mind of the youth is the most powerful resource on the earth, under
the earth and above the earth. Dear
young friends, I would like to talk on the topic “I am born with wings”.
Criteria for achievement for youth
How does achievement come? There are four proven steps;
having an aim in life before 20 years of age, acquiring knowledge continuously,
hard work towards the aim and perseverance to defeat the problem and succeed.
Dear young friends, I am sure, every one of you made up your mind what you will
be? Definitely each one of you will fly and fly towards your mission. At this point let me recall the famous verses of a 13th century Persian
Sufi poet Jalaluddin Rumi:
I will fly “I am born with potential. I am born with
goodness and trust. I am born with ideas and dreams. I am born with greatness. I
am born with confidence. I am born with wings. So, I am not meant for crawling,
I have wings, I will fly I will fly and fly”
My message to you is that education gives you wings to fly. Achievement
comes out of fire in our sub-conscious mind that “I will win”. So, each one of you assembled here, will have
“Wings of Fire”.
The Wing of Fire will indeed lead to great achievements in
life and career. I am sure all of can do it!
Unique You When I see you young friends with the mission of
hope for great achievements, let me discuss with you, how you can be unique?
Let us study together certain unique events by unique achievers. Eight unique
achievers in inventions and discoveries Dear friends, Look up, what do you see,
the light, the electric bulbs. Immediately, our thoughts go to the inventor
Thomas Alva Edison, for his unique contribution towards the invention of
electric bulb and his electrical lighting system.
When you hear the sound of aero plane going over your house,
whom do you think of? Wright Brothers
proved that man could fly of course at heavy risk and cost. Whom does the
telephone remind you of? Of course Alexander Graham Bell. When everybody
considered a sea travel as an experience or a voyage, a unique person
questioned during his sea travel from United Kingdom to India. He was pondering on why the horizon where the
sky and sea meet looks blue? His research resulted in the phenomena of
scattering of light. Of course, Sir CV Raman was awarded Nobel Prize.
Do you know an Indian Mathematician who did not have formal
higher education but had inexhaustible spirit and love for mathematics which took
him to contribute to the treasure houses of mathematical research – some of
which are still under serious study and engaging all-available world
mathematicians’ efforts to establish formal proofs? He was a unique Indian
genius who could melt the heart of the most hardened and outstanding Cambridge
mathematician Prof G H Hardy.
In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was Prof.
Hardy who discovered a great mathematician for the world. This mathematician was of-course Srinivasa
Ramanujan for whom every number was a divine manifestation.
Do you know the scientist who is famous for Chandra Limit
which describes the maximum mass (~1.44 solar masses) of a white dwarf star, or
equivalently, the minimum mass for which a star will ultimately collapse into a
neutron star to black hole following a supernova. Two of his students got the
Nobel Prize before him. It is of-course the famous Nobel Laureate Chandrasekhar
Subramanian .
Friends, there was a great scientific lady who is known for discovering
Radium. She won not one, but two Nobel Prizes, one for physics and another for
chemistry. Who is she? She is Madam Curie. Madam Curie discovered radium and
she was doing research on the effect of radiation on human system. The same
radiation which she discovered, affected her and she sacrificed her life for
removing the pain of human life.
Whenever I describe to you young friends, scientific historical
events, you all jumped. Name of the scientist –technologist who created the
great event, they are the unique personalities. Young friends, can you join
such unique performers of scientific history, you can, definitely you can. Let
us study together, how it can be made possible? Friends, I have, so far, met 15
million youth in a decade’s time. I learnt, “every youth wants to be unique,
that is, YOU! But the world all around you, is doing its best, day and night,
to make you just “everybody else”.
In the home, dear young fellows you are asked by your
parents to be like neighbours’ children for scoring good marks. When you go to school,
your teacher says “why not you become like the first five
rankers in the class”. Wherever you go, they are saying “you
have to be somebody else or everybody else”. Now, dear young friends, how many of
you would like to be unique yourself.
The challenge, my young friends, is that you have to fight
the hardest battle, which any human being can ever imagine to fight; and never stop
fighting until you arrive at your destined place, that is,
A UNIQUE YOU!
