If the tonic of unselfish service is administered to the mind during this period, life s mission is fulfilled. Every student must cultivate devotion and such faith. You must love and revere your teachers. That is the first step in the discipline, which leads to a virtuous character. Each child is a white marble for the teacher and the parents to mould into an image of God, a bud to be helped to blossom in all its Divine glory so that it becomes a worthy offering to God.
Children generally are good by nature and willing to do their duty and shine well in studies.
The cause of the vagaries, waywardness and occasional indiscipline lies with the elders who set poor examples of truth and self-control. From the most impressionable years the children should be taught to cultivate love for all. Love leads to unity. Unity promotes purity. Purity leads to Divinity.
