________________ Acknowledgement In the days gone, perhaps in 1973 Aacharya Muktivallabh suriji had been in H.R. College. After the completion of metric (11th Standard in those days) he entered the long awaited college campus. The students sensing freedom just at the sight of college were in a jubilant mood. They were at ease to tease without sparing anyone. To add, a lady professor arrived and was greeted by the students with shouts, slogans, whistle blowing and what not? The lady professor not giving up just turned a fierce eye on the students and the classroom was stunned with silence. (Even today shri Muktivallabh Suriji recollects the scene.) She delivered a silence breaking dialogue: "I have come here to teach you salesmanship. That's how to sell your goods. But you have taught me how to sell yourself. It's a Shame!" Here discipline was demanded and not commanded. If the entire curriculum was value less the students were not to be blamed for what happened. Such incidents are obvious to occur. You can't expect values when they remain untaught. There can't be a withdrawal without depositing. The current education pattern keeps us Drowning in Information and Gasping for Values. It targets the degree but gives no charging for duties. It fetches you an occupation but has a connection error with morals. It shapes a career, with character 'Out Of Coverage'. After spending the most important part of life and investing considerable amount, today's youth gets the education\degree. But this education has not been sufficient enough to provide many solutions in the life Education has given the ability to manage large business but fails to give the ability to manage a small family. It gives youth high status and position but it lacks self pride and self respect. It gives huge salary and luxuries but not the real pleasure and peace of mind. What is the reason of this situation?
