Amrita Vidyalayam - Durgapur
'Providing Futures Beyond Education'
To educate is to inspire—inspire thought and wonder about the world around us. Education is a responsibility that goes beyond putting numerous historical dates and scientific facts into the child’s mind. Meek acceptance of facts, unquestioned assimilation of concepts, or the mechanical re-presentation of facts from memory—if such shallowness was meant, education would hardly have taken the world to where it is now.
Rather, instilling the quality to think beyond what is presented for the eyes to see, a drive to reason out concepts, and the cultivation of an healthy curiosity that doesn’t rest until a theory is clear, are the real essence of education. It is individuals endowed with such genuine thirst for knowledge, who want to know for the sake of knowledge, rather than for any other mundane purpose, that go a long way in unraveling the innumerable secrets and mysteries that the world holds in it depths.
