The Nation Builders
2023

A National Level Article Writing Competition
on the occasion of
Teacher's Day 

''Aano bhadra krtavo yantu vishwatah'' (“Let noble thoughts come to me from all directions”)- this ancient quote from the Rig Veda rightly upholds the importance of knowledge in the Indian society. The act of exploration and dissemination of knowledge has been given the most revered position in India. The resulting Guru- Shishya tradition of our country is therefore a beacon for the world to follow. Over the centuries, India has been a land of great teachers. From Lord Krishna’s universal teachings in the Bhagwada Gita to Ramkrishna Paramhansa’s ideas of humanistic spirituality, several personalities have influenced humanity in a substantial manner. One such personality of the last century was Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan. An erudite scholar, President, Vice-president, and Vice-Chancellor, he donned many hats during his lifetime. But the role that he cherished the most was that of a teacher surrounded by his students discussing philosophy. One of the finest minds of his time, he is famous for suggesting his students to celebrate his birthday as the teacher’s day, in recognition of their great role in nation-building. In a similar manner, we at the Youthisthan Foundation, are doing our bit to re-establish the importance of teacher and the legacy of our ancient guru- shishya tradition in the 21st century. We are organising an event ‘The Nation Builders 2023’ – a national-level article writing competition on the occasion of Teacher’s Day.
