SANKARASRAMAM
THURSDAY MESSAGE (SERIES NO. 326)
GENERAL MESSAGE: 
 Indian heritage messages are those written by hundreds of Rushies.   
Those Rushies have expressed their views, visions, opinions and remarks 
about each subject and each aspect in their writings. They might also 
have suggested in different ways/ languages, the same  subject.  It is 
like the same rose flower is explained by different people in different 
way. Even the wordings and contents may vary even though it is about the
 same flower.  This is because there existed freedom of expression  
without  fear inside.  They submitted their views, even opposite views 
without fearing the most authoritative scholar, nor kings.  Thus we 
have  thousands of  books written by thousands of Rushies, in thousands 
of subjects for the last many thousands of years.
MESSAGES FOR 
PARENTS: 
Recently I had taken a  study class in one of the reputed 
engineering colleges in Kalady and the audience were the new students 
and their parents numbering  about 1,200.  I was explaining for 90 mins,
 only about the role of the parents and the behavior of their children 
(students) in their homes and outside.   At the end I repeated the role 
of mother and father in binging the children up  giving them good body 
and good mind. To our wonder we found that  more than  hundred parents 
came to meet me  within a span of 5 mins and express their gratitude and
 said ‘ if we would have got these messages earlier, our family would 
have been in a different level by now. We did not know that these are 
the pathways that we should have adopted for bringing our children up ” 
 I wish to tell all the parents ‘better late than never’ .  Teach them 
values and teach them modern knowledge. Let them get integrated messages
 of old and new. Let them be good and great.
MESSAGES FOR 
TEACHERS:  
Teach the subject to the students by  mixing the  good modern
 knowledge and good old knowledge. Repeat each paragraph in different 
ways and make them answer few questions from each paragraph you 
explained systematically. Make the subject  thorough.  What you taught 
them should be remembered for ever. Repeat once again next day.
MESSAGE TO THE 
STUDENTS (and techers):  
 Learn  by mixing  good old knowledge and good 
new knowledge. Example;  if you are learning  the iron metallurgy, learn
 about  Delhi iron pillar and also Dhar iron pillar. If you are 
learning/teaching them about the circles in geometry, teach them about 
the circumference, diameter, area and chord  of a circle  explained  by 
Aryabhatta also. If you teach/ learn  about mind,  teach them  also the 
Upanishadic messages on mind. When you are learning or teaching about 
earth,  know about what ancient  Indians have said about spherical shape
 of earth, its rotation, revolution, declination, latitude and  
longitude and so on also.
HERITAGE MESSAGE: :
 Always try to understand something new everyday. Know  the new  with 
the old particularly about the heritage of India. Learning the new and 
old together will be very interesting.   You can get those knowledge 
from  television, newspaper, magazines, or during discussions. Today I 
found that more than a thousand Arabs sitting in the huge auditorium in 
Puttaparthy, the abode of Sathya Sai Baba and  participating  in the 
 prayer. This is something unbelievable to anyone. Remember,  Muslims 
from Arabia coming to Puttaparthy and participating in the prayer is 
something great and that we can be proud of. Here comes the mixing of 
the Arabian and Indian
IN THE SERVICE OF THE MOTHERLAND AND DHARMA
