Educational Systeam in India

                                             Educational Systeam in India
For hundereds of  years education has been a problem and is the root cause of all evils in our country.Many articles have been written as to how the systeam would change but hardly any such change has been made.we have estblished many such institutione like IITs IIMs and other notable institutions but nothing much has been than that. 
         Now a days students study only to score marks and they score even in IIT JEEs and AIIMS Previously the colonial masters introduced educational systeam only to create clerks and civil servants and till today that pattern persists .There are thousends of schools collages and universities that do not meet minimum educational standards.Corruption and lack of ambition are prevailing every where.
            The problems in education cannot be solved by mere creating hundreds of universities and schools and colleges.People donot get standards of education they are struggling to get employment.The mad race for competition only ruins the creativity of the students.
             The testing and the marking systeam of our education need to built to recognise origional contributions in form of creativity problem solving valuable origional reserch and innovation.If we can achieve this then the Indian educational systeam could be changed.There should be much emphasis on hiring the smarter people to teach.Teaching jobs are till today regarded as safe and well paying jobs.Thousends of teachers are wasting valuble time of yonng children now a days.
Time has come to hire super class teachers The better teacher will be more popular and wil attract more students.
            With the coming of computers and internet there is a need for investment in the technological infrastructure.We need to create educational delivery mechanisms that can take the welth of human knowledge to the masses.

how spritualism helps to boost our primery education

                                                RATHA  JATRA- the festival of puri  

Ratha Jatra,the Festival of Chariots of Lord Jagannatha is celebrated every year at Puri,the temple town in Orissa.The presiding deities of the main temple,Sri Mandira,Lord Jagannatha,Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra,with the celestial wheel Sudarshana are taken out from the temple precincts in an elaborate ritual procession to their respective chariots.The huge,colourfully decorated chariots,are drawn by thousands of devotees on the bada danda,the grand avenue to the Gundicha temple. After a stay for nine days,the deities return to Srimandira. Ratha Jatra is perhaps the grandest festival on earth.Everything is on a scale befitting the great Lord.Full of spectacle,drama and colour,the festival is a typical Indian fair of huge proportions.It is also the living embodiment of the synthesis of the tribal,the folk,and the autochthonous with the classical,the elaborately formal and the sophisticated elements of the socio-cultural-religious ethos of the Indian civilization. The festival is also known as Gundicha Jatra, Ghosa Jatra,Navadina Jatra,Dasavatara Jatra and by a variety of other names.For the devoted and believers,it is considered the most auspicious occasion.A glimpse of the Vamana,the dwarf form, an incarnation of Lord Jagannatha,is sure to ensure emancipation,release from the cycle of birth and death. Ratha Jatra is an essential part of the ritual of the Hindu system of worship.Jatra literally means travel or journey.Normally.It is the representative deities of temples more popularly known as Utsava Murti in south and Chalanti Pratima or Bije Pratima in Orissa,partake in these journeys.It is rarely that the presiding deities come out of the sanctum for such ritual journeys. The Jatra for the Ritual Journey take two forms – one involving the short circumbulation around the temple and other involving a longer journey from the temple to some other destination.The Jatra is considered as an important part of festivities and ceremonies of each temple and is considered as a special and sacred occasion. Rath Jatra being unique among all Jatras is the grandest festival of the supreme divinity.He has manifested himself in the Kali Yuga to emancipate humanity and to relieve them from their sufferings.Lord Jagannatha is identified fully with Vishnu and Krishna.In his original manifestation as Nilamadhaba,he was worshipped in a sacred Nyagrodha Briksha or banyan tree.The branches of the tree had spread for several miles and any one entering this area was instantly emancipated and was relieved of the travails of the birth and re-birth.In fact,the influence of Yama,the God of Death,is supposed to have been curtailed in the sacred city of Puri-Srikshetra on account of the presence of Lord Jagannatha and therefore it is also called the Yamanika Tirtha. A glimpse of Lord Jagannatha on the chariot is considered to be very auspicious and saints.Poets and scriptures have repeatedly glorified the sanctity of this special festival. The sanctity of the festival is such that even a touch of the chariot or even the ropes with which these are pulled is considered enough to confer the results of several pious deeds or penance for ages.In fact,there is a famous Oriya song which says that on this occasion,the chariot,the wheels, the grand avenue all become one with Lord Jagannatha himself.
