Take an About Turn !! or you will be in a mess!!

Education  is all that matter to the human beings, everybody goes on to get a degree in one thing or the other, because the society would not give respect to the one who does not have degrees in academic field. That person may be highly skilled and good character being, still people ask him what he studied.  Where he studied, what degrees is there at the end of his/her name.
So it’s a known and accepted fact that one should have Degrees to get a job, or to get a promotion or to get respect in the society.  Even though one is exceedingly well versed in the his field of work, he would not be considered to go up in the strata of his employment.
Therefore every one strives to get degrees rather than knowledge of the subject.  There are so many short cut ways invented by Indian student to get these Degrees, by hook or crook, for which we should feel ashamed of the corruption prevailing in so called education system, where the principles, values are nullified.
It’s the time for the genius  of this academic area, to ponder over this, and urge the social strata, to think or  rethink where  our skilled , knowledgeable workers are drained, unnoticed.
Can we give some professional skills to the students in the areas they are interested right from elementary sections?  Improvement of language should be a must, and an inevitable subject, but the rest of the subjects, should not be imposed on the student to write an exam and to pass. This pass and failed system of examination should not be criteria to analyze the students’ caliber. It should never be. The other subjects like arts and sciences could be given an exposure to the student but never should they determine to go up into the strata of academic field.  Better to concentrate on one skill, even if it be a pottery, carpentry,  blacksmithery, whatever,  if once the student is confident of the subject he chooses, he will be interested in it and could invent great things in that area. 
Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank. Proverbs 22:29
This is the essence of education: one should attain skill, in some area of life. If it is not given in his life of 6 years of elementary section+ 4 years of High school+ 2 years of Jr. college studies+ 3 years of Degree course+ 2 years of post graduation course=17 years of  long academic years , what is the use of studying at all? We are producing  a great number of unemployees, who are skillless, and useless, and distressed youth..
Even the  so called professional courses are san moral education, there is no one who can educated them on these grounds, our governments are under the impression, that these youth of 18 and odd years of age know every thing in the world, etiquette, values, morals and rules and regulations, and give them only and only some training in computers, or electronics, or Medicine, or Mechanics  which make them derailed subjects of the country. They pass the exams and get gold medals in their subjects, swollen in the brain, and dead in spirit and heart functioning.  That is the reason we see so many people who are high in ranks of the society behaving silly and with criminal mind.

The responsibility lies with the Educators, , the rich who wants to establish the education institutions, One should be dare enough to show the world that a different type of education is needed and it would fetch great human beings, who can uplift the society. The Ministers of Education should be influenced by the moral educators, for better future of the country.  Prime Minister should be educated first to see the education is different spectrum.  Only people like you the youth could think of it, strive for it, and work for it.   I wish all the best for this website, hope this would bring real change in thinking  at least in some important leaders of the society.
