even when he says that it has been established this fellow has murdered Rajiv Gandhi, he would like still an appeal to the President. Nobody is prepared to accept it. Principles of justice is being questioned. I am not going to the minor details. I am talking about a major details of only one incident, you can add hundreds. Our individual positions are such that in our own house, for no reason we fight with our brother, for no reason we fight with our sisters, for the sake of some object, for the sake of something which you think you deserve more than he or she, all our fights are coming from this. Principles of education unfortunately are founded on this. We have got somebody who is first in the class and then somebody who is last in the class. Whoever has given us that right to distinguish them I do not know but that is what education is. Every one of us learn at our own pace.

All our Ithihasas have lost their value, all our Puranas have lost their value, nobody wants to follow anyone of them. We have become intelligent, our buddhi has gone far beyond. Agreed, there is no doubt about it but what is the solution, still the problem is there. The problem is sought to be solved by the principle of moderation and for that we have got to lift this mind which goes to the lower mind, the thought force which flows down generally goes steep, some effort has to be made to go up.
Tradition has made so many efforts of education and other things. In this system through Pranahuti, the first effort that is made is the flow of consciousness to
