The most potent instrument of positive change and transformation which the world has ever known is ‘education’, in that, being an overarching activity which brings people to knowledge of themselves and the world, education ignites and propels the inventive and expressive powers of the individual, and creates the control structures whereby the opportunities embodied in the mutual interaction between the individual and the society are maximized effectively.

Virtue is the path to knowledge; knowledge is the key to self-discovery; self-discovery is the gateway to happiness.

Ignorance is a dark night of captivity and misery within the “self”. Knowledge is the light that overwhelms this darkness, liberates the individual from the shackles and tragedies of self-slavery, and sets him rightly on the path of self-actualization.

Anyone who wishes to savour the joys and glories of success must first make bold to endure the discomfort of a regulated life, the stress of hard work, and the agony of self-discipline.

Despite our different places of origin, we are all one family by virtue of being human. Let us join hands to build a more humane world, a world of integral development, a non-violent world, a just and moral world, a world of peace, and a world of universal brotherhood.
