The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, said that some people are highly skilled at performing a task themselves, while others are particularly adept at imparting that knowledge or skill to others. He noted that a person who possesses both these qualities-self-mastery and the ability to teach others-deserves to be regarded among the finest of teachers.
The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-
“श्लिष्टा क्रिया कस्यचिदात्मसंस्था सङ्क्रान्तिरन्यस्य विशेषयुक्ता।
यस्योभयं साधु स शिक्षकाणां धुरि प्रतिष्ठापयितव्य एव।। ”
The Subhashitam conveys that while some excel in practice and others in teaching, the one who combines both mastery of a subject and the ability to effectively impart it to others is worthy of being placed in the foremost rank of teachers.
The Prime Minister wrote on X;
“श्लिष्टा क्रिया कस्यचिदात्मसंस्था सङ्क्रान्तिरन्यस्य विशेषयुक्ता।
यस्योभयं साधु स शिक्षकाणां धुरि प्रतिष्ठापयितव्य एव।।”
श्लिष्टा क्रिया कस्यचिदात्मसंस्था सङ्क्रान्तिरन्यस्य विशेषयुक्ता।
