GURUDEV thoughts capsule and manifest the sublimity of our ethos of learning : Dhankhar

Santiniketan, Dec 24 (UNI) West Bengal Governor and Rector Visva Bharati Jagdeep Dhankhar on the occasion of Centenary Celebrations of Foundation Day of Visva Bharati said, " GURUDEV thoughts capsule and manifest the sublimity of our ethos of learning. "
" As Governor of State of West Bengal I deem it an honour to be associated with the Centenary Celebrations of the FOUNDATION DAY of VISVA BHARATI. It is a great privilege to be present on this auspicious and momentous occasion, " he added.
" It is gratifying that our worthy Prime Minister Narendra Modiji in a while will be setting the tone of this day and the year to follow. Today we stand on the cusp of the centenary of the Foundation of Visva-Bharati, an institution of national importance, " Mr Dhankhar stated.
" The occasion reminds us that GURUDEV TAGORE envisioned BHARAT as a POWERHOUSE of PROGRESS and LEARNING.
GURUDEV thoughts capsule and manifest the sublimity of our ethos of learning, " he noted.
" His resolve and foundational contributions as also the visionary leadership of the Country would surely fructify into BHARAT regaining its status of VISVA GURU, " the Governor observed.
" The NEW NATIONAL EDUCATION EDUCATION POLICY, rightly hailed as a game changer, is in varied ways influenced by Gurudev’s emphasis on learning, " he opined.
" Qualitative and significant shift from usual learning to emphasis on holistic education is a key factor of this policy. It rightly lays greater emphasis on independent thinking and creative impulses. "
" New Education Policy will surely pave way for emergence of scenario envisioned by Tagore in his reflection 'Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free,'" he stated.
"The foundational mantra of Gurudev was to rise and awaken oneself in education, fellow feeling and breadth of the soul. We all need to practise and disseminate these wholesome concepts. "
" During the Centenary Year of FOUNDATION DAY CELEBRATIONS there will be activities that would help us exploit our talent, realize our potential and generate optimism for Bharat becoming Visva Guru again. "
" Ancient India was home to world class institutions Nalanda and Taxila to name few. Time is ripe for us to take this lead now. Visva Bharati Foundation Day Centenary celebrations will surely generate vibes that will directionally catalyze this wholesome scenario, " the Governor said.

" It is in this spirit that we stand here together to celebrate the founding of this great institution, " Mr Dhankhar added.
The Governor called upon the Vice Chancellor, faculty and students of Visva-Bharati to take Tagore’s message forward and to fulfil his dream of creating a bridge between human beings and widen knowledge across frontiers and to practice the ethical life that he had envisioned for this ashrama.
