Friends, every child when born, I believe, is a peace loving child. And it is we who probably
spoil his nature, it is we who take him to the wrong direction from a peace-loving human being
to a human being who starts believing in conflicts believing in hatred and so on and so forth.
And therefore education is the means which will have to come in to correct the situation. I
remember the famous sculptor of Michelangelo. He created a beautiful statue, and a friend of
his said "Out of a piece of stone you have created this beautiful statue.
"The sculptor said"
This statue was already within the stone. I have not created it. All i have done is, I have
chiseled off the undersirable pieces which were around the statue and which were masking the statue."
I think friends, in the same way, a child who is born by the kindness of god is a peace loving child.
In the name of education, we have started believing in stuffing him with more and more information,
ratherthan chiseling him off to make sure he remains a peace loving person. If we give that holistic
shift to the educational paradigm, we believe we'll be able to do much better. And that is the aim of
