I Am A Teacher My Trysts With Life Truth System Happiness

I am a Teacher (My trysts with life, truth, system & happiness) India’s first Teacher empowerment book In today’s knowledge society Economic growth of a Nation is dependent on the quality of Education system. International Research found out that if two average eight year old students were given different teachers – one of them a high performer; the other a low performer – their performance diverge by more than 50 percentile points within three years. So, a teacher makes all the difference. But in spite of these realities Teachers are a relatively underserved community in terms of support, training, resources and products. As primary agents of change, teachers—more than anyone else—need to be equipped with best-in-class resources and knowledge to enable better education. Apart from this the education community has also not focused sufficiently on teacher motivation and empowerment. With this background in mind AIETS proudly presents India’s first Teacher empowerment book. I am a Teacher Based on the story of Suniana, a school teacher, this book reveals Suniana’s experiences, joys and sorrows, her ups and downs in the course of her journey as a teacher. Suniana’s success story can be the success story of every teacher provided he/she is equipped with the tools to deal with his/her particular problem. Like Suniana if each of us aspires to be among the best, we will be making our children into not just citizens of India but global citizens– ready to take on the world! The books is meant for all teachers, educators, parents and every citizen who believes that quality education is the key driver of economic growth and prosperity of any country. The book will help teachers increase skills, enhance professional development and maximize classroom learning time. The book is loaded with inspirational and humorous stories that highlight the joys and rewards of teaching without ignoring the realities of the job. The book is a must for every teacher who is passionate about his job, who is looking forward to improve himself, who believes in motivating his/ her students. The book is a must for every parent who is, by default, teacher to his/ her ward. We teach our children a lot of things, directly or indirectly. You must read it if you want to understand them better and to change their understanding for better. The book is a must for every leader who wishes to lead by example thus motivating his peers and subordinates. The book is a must for every Indian citizen who wishes to spread awareness among the under privileged to bring about a lasting change in the social fabric about motivating youth to take up the challenges of the Modern India."

Excerpt from The Teacher's Ideals of Life and Happiness The aim of this little book is to help my fellow teachers to think deeply about the serious aspects of human life. After spending twenty-five years of my life as a teacher, I have reached the conviction that what teachers most need is not more theory or more method, but a wider outlook, a clearer vision, and deeper convictions concerning matters of great importance to the lives of the children which the try to influence. I have written as simply, as plainly, and as briefly as I could. I have not the least doubt about the truth or the importance of the principles which I have tried to emphasize. If these chapters, through the teachers who may read them, contribute in ever so small a way toward a larger life and greater possibilities and opportunities for children, I shall be happy.

A message of love, compassion and the spiritual unity of humankind from one of India’s visionary teachers Vivekananda’s message gives us hope for the future. His love for humanity gave him the mandate for his message, and his innate purity gave him an irresistible power that nobody could match. The same love that was born as Buddha, the Compassionate One, once again assumed human form as Vivekananda. —from the Introduction At the World’s Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893, a young Hindu monk caused a sensation. At the utterance of his simple opening words—“Sisters and Brothers of America”—the audience broke into spontaneous applause for Swami Vivekananda. What followed was a stunning speech about the validity and unity of all religions. In just a little over a century, Vivekananda’s message has spread throughout the world. In this book for spiritual seekers of all faiths and backgrounds, and for all who yearn for solutions to the ideological conflicts that threaten our world, Swami Adiswarananda presents a selection of Vivekananda’s most profound and inspiring lectures and an intimate glimpse of his life through newspaper reports from the time, personal reminiscences from disciples and others close to him, and impressions of his life and message from world leaders. A chapter by Swami Nikhilananda, founder of the Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York, offers a fascinating view of Vivekananda’s spiritual mission to America—a mission that brought the ideals of spiritual freedom and spiritual democracy to the forefront of Western religious thought.
