Everyday the teacher is compared on the scale of time: DU VC Prof Yogesh Singh

 

The Vice Chancellor released the book ‘Bhakti, Samvedana our Manav Mulya’ written by Prof Anil Roy

 

Vice Chancellor of University of Delhi Prof Yogesh Singh said that teachers are compared on the scale of time every day. “If you enjoy teaching then that is the joy of being a teacher. Therefore, tension does not look good on the faces of teachers.”

 

Prof Yogesh Singh was addressing as the chief guest at the book release ceremony organised at the Convention Hall of University of Delhi. On this occasion the book ‘Bhakti, Samvedana our Manav Mulya’ written by Prof Anil Roy was also formally released. In the release ceremony, Director of South Campus, Prof Shri Prakash Singh, Dean of Colleges, Prof Balram Pani and Registrar Dr Vikas Gupta also addressed.

 

While discussing the subject matter of the book, Vice Chancellor Prof Yogesh Singh said in his address that the author has written more on the medieval period (Bhakti period) of Hindi literature in this book. This period was the period of India's defeat, the period of India's slavery and the period of glory of the Mughals in India. Even during that period, poets like Tulsidas, Saint Kabir and Surdas were writing devotional poetry.

 

The Vice Chancellor said that it was a difficult time for the country, and when circumstances are adverse, a person gives his best performance. This is the reason why classic works like Ramcharitmanas written by Tulsidas were written during that period. He said that Ram created Tulsi and Tulsidas installed Ram in every home of India.

 

Singh while discussing the title of the book ‘Bhakti, Samvedana our Manav Mulya’ said that if sentiment is removed from human life, life becomes like soil turns into sand without water. Regarding the feeling of superiority in the world of education, the Vice Chancellor said that this feeling reduces the feeling of compassion. He said that the things that Tulsi and Kabir have said in a very simple manner are equally relevant even today. The feelings of compassion and kindness of Tulsi and Kabir should be implemented in universities also.

 

The Vice Chancellor said that if students Praise a teacher, it will be the biggest achievement in that teacher's life. There can be no greater happiness than being praised behind one's back.

Prof Roy said that this book contained compilation of some of his research papers and speeches. At the conclusion of the program, Principal of Daulatram College, Prof Savita Roy delivered the Vote of Thanks.
