Teaching

  1. Teaching is a knack to explain with lucidity E = mc^2 equation of Einstein to those who do not know Physics.
  2. A true teacher teaches with the hope that a learner will excel her one day.
  3. If a person has no fervour, her teaching cannot inspire. Teaching is an act of devotion.
  4. Teaching is constant learning, because knowledge is also unlearning to re-learn.
  5. Teaching is inspiring to doubt; otherwise, it is preaching.
  6. We cannot teach more than what we are, because we cannot give more than what we have.
  7. Respect for the teachers is regard for the culture.
  8. When the student is immersed in brooding, you are teaching.
  9. Nations achieve power and glory in proportion to the honour and facilities they extend to their teachers.

About Rasheed Akhund

In every family, if one is lucky, there appears a figure so marvellously singular, so steeped in wisdom and warmth that he becomes a sort of personal North Star. Rasheed Ahmed Akhund was such a man; measured, principled and enigmatic. A man who, like the best of us, lived not for show but for substance. He belonged to a dwindling class of men who thought deeply, spoke sparingly and forgave quietly.

“A person cannot say that reality is above human comprehension because, being human, he cannot know that there is anything above his comprehension"

- on Philosophy

“lf you attempt to prove existence of God with cold logic, you will land him in contradictions. If you feel him warmly, he is universal love and sense of perfection.”
