Discourses-----Day 30
November 25, 1941
I asked, “You have expressed a desire to introduce
agriculture, carpentry, smithy, wicker-work, tailoring, weaving, masonry, etc.
as compulsory subjects in education. If we do not take up these lines as
professionals of life, what is the use of learning so many things ?”
Sri
Sri Thakur : If
one i“s accustomed to carry out these fundamental activities with ease and with
electric speed, one will not have to be unemployed. You can give a start to any
allied activity. No one will be able to cheat you in these matters either. And
then again, if you are in the know of so many activities, whether you are a
pleader or otherwise, you will be able to carry on your professions finely and
successfully. Confidence will grow in you. Motor-Sensory co-ordination and
training for productive activity will lead you on to success. If all activities
are well within your grasp and ability, you will not be puzzled in facing any
situation whatsoever. The fine nerves of the nation have become as though
benumbed by long disuse of the motor nerves.”
