Beef? Minority? Hinduism? Muslim? Dadri?Dalit?Punjab Riots?
I'm sure everyone must be coming across all these words over the past few days. It doesn't matter which side of the debate you're on...
At QuesTeach, we believe education is of prime importance and it helps us analyse, think, question certain things. Today, we see negativity all around us and it may have a demoralizing effect on us...and the society as a whole. Whenever we think of taking a step forward in the direction of growth and progress, all this stupidity of religion fanaticism, takes us couple of steps back.
In today's era, Education is all the more important. Education is the solution to think radically about each and every issue, big or small, professional or personal. In case of Religion, radical and rational thinking is necessary. IF you are Hindu, read all the holy books you can but try to understand the logic behind that. If you are a Muslim, read Quran-e-Sharif but try to understand what it's really trying to say. What's the logic behind all the rituals, philosophy mentioned in holy books of every religion. That's the education which is needed in today's context.
COW IS OUR MOTHER!!
That's fine but how and why? Did we ever try to understand that?
Cow's milk and mother's milk have almost the same essential ingredients which is important for a new born child. It's like a life serum to a new born child. That's why all the Saints in our ancient history advocate the importance of preserving the cow. But they also knew that if they will tell it directly, we might not listen, and will start ignoring this precious animal. So they linked cow with all the mythological stories to educate us about the importance of the cow. Gradually, generations go by and we tend to forget the logic behind those stories.
Today we are still fighting because we are hollow, in the logic arena. I have seen my mother standing at roadside dustbins and eating garbage. We only remember her on the occasion of some ritual, otherwise we are those lame kids and those hypo-critic individuals who don't care where our mother strays during the day. In this regard, we have no right to call cow our our mother. No need to cry and shout slogans about cow slaughtering if you your yourself have stopped caring about her.

Education empowers you to see the logic behind the curtains, and with the right education, you will see the actual logic behind many concepts and it'll help you to make others understand the same.
Education is important for getting good marks or to get a good job but education is also important to have compassion and an analytical mindset. With the kind of education structure we have in our country, we might get good marks in exams, but we will surely fail in life. Think about that....
