It supposed to help in identifying one’s own individual skills and direct them in the appropriate disciplines where their strength can be bloomed.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Instead it is driving everyone to learn pre-set of frameworks that is presumed as helping them to succeed in worldly pursuits. In reality, it wipes out the one’s individuality, talents and continuously seeding the lack of confidence and fear in entire life-cycle. In the mind, the entire life spends struggling to overcome these foot prints rather than developing the intellectual talents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1661443399064652453-1481839376359718515?l=www.valayam.org' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.valayam.org/feeds/1481839376359718515/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.valayam.org/2010/07/do-you-have-right-education-system.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1661443399064652453/posts/default/1481839376359718515'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1661443399064652453/posts/default/1481839376359718515'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.valayam.org/2010/07/do-you-have-right-education-system.html' title='Are we having right Education System?'/><author><name>Srinivasan Mani</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18333554773985960875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6hTyyrFBvWk/TBxzRc1E4jI/AAAAAAAAAcI/GIFWQKI9h2o/S220/Mani.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1661443399064652453.post-7007060532538381300</id><published>2010-06-19T13:44:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2010-06-19T13:44:38.054+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Basic needs of human life are Food, Shelter and Clothing</title><content type='html'>Basic needs of human life are food, shelter and clothing which were created and made available to human being without incurring any cost. By means of human evolution the cost is being applied to these basic needs and it starts with exchange of each of these against other. Currently the cost is in the form of money. The evolution made sure all these basic needs to tie up by the cost which has grown up exponentially along with human evolution. During this human evolution, we have discovered many material things to value add our existence. These value added were cost heavily when it was discovered and the cost is being reduced by discovering the new techniques. But the human evolution least bother about to keep the cost control over all these basic needs and thus lead to the present complex life style. There are few questions now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Are we going to lead this present complex life style? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Are we going to work towards bring down the cost for the basic needs? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Are we going to work towards discovering new material life needs? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just for the thought. If we don't sow a seed, there will be no harvest.

It creates the insight as the rural life has lot of negative  implications and is often described as inferior to the urban. The rural  life which is the one should preserve and protect to lead a human life  with peaceful and natural way. Then what makes them to think urban life  is superior. Is it because of urbanization evolved by cultural  adjustment to economic and social changes? Or is the cultural adjustment  at rural not adopting as quick as urban? Further we can explore based  on civilized, uncivilized and educated, uneducated. But we cannot say  that only uncivilized and uneducated are living in rural. The civilized  and educated lives at rural still feel inferior as compared to urban  people. I can say this is purely illusion and perception and this lead  to the rural people in wrong direction.  I think we need to create  awareness to the rural people that they are no way inferior to urban  people. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;After all we are all human being. We have an end. This  life is between the birth and death. This is applicable to either we  live at urban or rural. Irrespective of where we are living. We need a  food, shelter and clothing. As long as anyone gets these basic needs, no  need to feel anything about superior or inferior.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; At present world, the people don't get these basic need is more at Rural  as compared to the urban. This may be one of the reason why the people  at rural are feeling inferior. How do we address this problem? We need  to make sure everyone should get these basic needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;We know most of the rural people are depends on agriculture employment  which is the one still keeping the human being existence. We all have  forgotten to recognize their work. We have created the reward and  recognition for all the discoveries which are entertaining us. But we  have forgotten to realize the worth of the agricultural employment which  gives us food for ever. Currently we are consciously discriminating the  rural employment from the urban employment.  The answer for the heading  question will become “NO” when agricultural employment gets recognized.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1661443399064652453-1802057441673404325?l=www.valayam.org' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.valayam.org/feeds/1802057441673404325/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.valayam.org/2010/06/is-rural-life-is-inferior-to-urban.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1661443399064652453/posts/default/1802057441673404325'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1661443399064652453/posts/default/1802057441673404325'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.valayam.org/2010/06/is-rural-life-is-inferior-to-urban.html' title='Is Rural life is Inferior to Urban?'/><author><name>Srinivasan Mani</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18333554773985960875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6hTyyrFBvWk/TBxzRc1E4jI/AAAAAAAAAcI/GIFWQKI9h2o/S220/Mani.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
