“Knowledge without Action is useless,
Action without knowledge is dangerous.”
Swami has created an environment of
academic excellence and has constantly encouraged students to take
up higher education. He implores us to convert knowledge into a tool useful to
society. The state of the art techniques used in our Institute’s
curriculum for teaching and research, the library which is truly a
bibliophile’s delight, the quality and the qualifications of His
chosen teachers, stand testimony to the importance given by Him to
imparting knowledge. His parental concern about our academic
performance has encouraged us to achieve outstanding results year
after year.
Rabindranath Tagore dreams echoed in his verse “Where
the mind is without fear and the head is held high, where knowledge
is free…….” find fruition at His institutions where quality
education is imparted.
“Students! Remember that all those whom we are accepting now as
leaders, whom we respect as holding positions of authority, whom we
worship as elders, were some years ago students like yourselves.
Therefore, you in your turn will be the leaders, power-wielders and
elders of tomorrow”
Swami’s words as always are prophetic. We increasingly find Sai
Students living up to fulfilling these words in their respective
domains. They hold distinguished positions as academicians,
administrators, bureaucrats, bankers, consultants, doctors,
engineers, researchers,……… in various blue-chips, institutions of
international repute and multinationals.
There
is tremendous potential for each of us to continue to collaborate in
our respective domains of expertise and work in tandem to further
our competence. There also exists the opportunity for all of us to
show our gratitude to our Alma by increasing the levels of alumni –
alma mater interaction. Knowledge being in a state of continuous
progressive change, there is always a pressing need to keep
ourselves abreast. This forum can help facilitate this objective as
also keep our peers updated.
