Guru - The Indispensible

Not everyone realizes the importance of a Guru - Teacher. I have realized it many times in my life.

Be it art, science, programming, yoga - whatever! without a good teacher, its difficult to master it! May be some people are self-starters and they learn on their own. But even then, they might also have some indirect teachers.

I have gone several classes for learning classical instruments, vocal, swimming, dancing, Java, yoga, etc,. But only a few have I completed successfully. I used to wonder what is wrong with me since I was not able to complete most of my courses to the full. It is then I realized the importance of a good teacher - A teacher who understands you!

Every student is different - unique! And a teacher must understand this and change their teaching methodology to suit the individual needs. Having some pre-framed standards or steps for teaching is not going to satisfy everyone.

A teacher should match the pace of the student and the student should give his 100% to the teacher. Understanding each other is the key to success.

The Learning will bring happiness - not only to the student but also to the teacher. Beyond money, it will bring in a special bond between them because of the energy exchange - knowledge transfer.

Blessed are those who find right Guru. Blessed are those who find right student. I think teacher-student relationship is divine - whatever be the object of learning!

Katradhu Tamil (Tamil M A)

I saw this movie yesterday because of the compulsion of my friend. He said its nice and he has watched it 8 times!

My Gaaud!! After watching the movie I was wondering about the patience and perseverance this fellow has - watching it for 8 times!! Of course the movie was taken well and its a different type of movie. But its full of negativity! It is a wrong thing - done in a right way!

After watching any movie you should feel relaxed and light! And if the movie gives you some more information - science or life or whatever - its good!

But this movie is not for relaxation at all! Everything projected in only one perspective - negative angle alone. Already there are so many things to worry about in life. Many things that can easily make you feel sunk! Why the hell spend some 3 hours and make yourself feel sad more!

If the guy studied Tamil and dint earn much what can we do? Every field has competition. There are people who studied Eng. and are jobless as well. There are literates who earn well as professors in colleges. I totally agree that its a pity-full state person who studied Tamil is not respected in Tamil Nadu! But you cant blame the IT guys for that! You cant go and kill someone for that! Its stupidity!

This movie is trying to justify and encourage all negative emotions!Things that do not deserve more attention, should not be given attention. Unnecessarily, taking a movie like this clearly portraying negative feelings in a psychotic way is really not healthy for the minds watching it! It can corrupt an innocent mind!

I wonder why such movies are taken!
