My Guru
Mrs. Manjula Sarvotham Daughter of YS.Prakash Reddy, Bangalore
Me having brought up by my grand father, I learned from his life many valuable lessons. After finishing my B.Sc, I wanted to go for M.Sc. My Grand father advised me to become a teacher and help many people to come out of their ignorance and illiteracy. It was not a good idea for me at that time and though what a teacher’s job worth for.

And later I went for my M.Sc, and finished my B.Ed also. I established a school that could educate hundreds of students. This is how I think I could satisfy my grandfather’s desire. My grandfather might have noticed my abilities and suggested to me in that way. That is why it has become a saying that “the words of elders always mean a bag of wealth”. My Grandfather taught many life principles from the Bible to all of us and remained as a great model figure to all of us. “Work is Worship”, “Time and tide waits for none”, “Simple living and high thinking”’ Cleanliness is Godliness” are some of the proverbs that I learned from my grandfather which have become landmarks in my life now. Being punctual; accomplishing the given task with devotion and satisfaction however difficult it is; extending a helping hand to others as much as we can; being humble; keeping God closer to us in all our joys and sorrows; are the lessons I learned from the life of Grandfather the great, to whom I pay my salutations as my Guru. I am just proud to be his grand daughter. He was not merely a man of words instead he was a man of action.
