3. Inspiring Thoughts of
Swami Vivekananda on Education and Society ~ Part - 1
Real education
is that
which enables
one
to stand
on his own legs.

4. Be Yourself
The greatest religion
is to be true
to your own nature.
Have faith in yourselves!

5. Nothing Is Impossible
If there is sin,
this is the only sin –
to say that you are weak,
or others are weak.

Yes,
one person
can
make a difference
in the world.
Even small contributions,
can make a big difference -
can mark the beginning of
substantial change

18. Become KNOWLEDGABLE.
It's easier to be ignorant and
say that I don't know about the problem.
But once you know,
once you've seen it with your eyes,
then you have a responsibility
to do something.
There is strength in numbers,
and if we all work together as a team,
we can be unstoppable.
Together, we can make a
substantial difference.

19. Definition
as per World Health Organization
~ state of complete
physical, mental and social well being
and not merely
an absence of disease or infirmity.
January 11, 2013 19

20. Health has many dimensions.
Besides WHO’s definition of dimensions:
~ Physical
~ Mental and
~ Social,
~ Spiritual
~ Emotional
~ Vocational
~ Political
~ and may be many other

22. Health
PHYSICAL

SPIRITUAL
January 11, 2013 22

23. Physical health,
and to some extent mental health too,
can be improved by active participation
in sports.
Character, values,
physical and mental strength
are all challenged and improved
in a short span of time.
Sports can tell us a lot
about ourselves as individuals
and as a society.
January 11, 2013 23

24. Mental health,
relatively speaking, is more important.
It can be improved by
developing positive attitude,
engaging in healthy thinking,
cultivating good habits,
reading inspiring books,
choosing good friends,
and participating in good activities.
Character, values,
personality, attitudes, behaviour, etc.
will all be improved.
January 11, 2013 24

25. Spiritual health,
can be improved by
practicing
Human Values,
such as,
Love,
Truth,
Peace,
Righteousness,
Non-violence, etc.
January 11, 2013 25

26. Spiritual health,
plays a significant role,
in improving all-round health.
It can be improved by
traditional methods,
such as participating in religious activities.
Spirituality, is more abstract
and to my mind, more important,
in developing your spiritual health.
January 11, 2013 26

27. Improving simultaneously
all aspects of health ~
Physical, Mental and Spiritual ~
will help an individual to become a
constructive, contributing citizen.
With such citizens,
the whole country
will become more vibrant,
productive, developing and
progressing in all respects.
January 11, 2013 27

28. Now that you know something
that will help you to
Improve yourself,
and simultaneously
play your part in nation-building,
activize yourself,
energize yourself,
sensitize yourself.
January 11, 2013 28

begin
to become better ?

January 11, 2013 36

37. “India is the cradle of the human race,
the birthplace of human speech,
the mother of history,
the grandmother of legend,
and the great grandmother of tradition.
Our most valuable and
most instructive materials
in the history of man
are treasured up in India”.
January 11, 2013 Mark Twain 37

is to help create a community

January 11, 2013 40

41. Activities such as these
provide a platform
for thinking beyond
your own welfare
to do something for others.
January 11, 2013 41

42. Today our country is
facing many many challenges . . .
such as . . .
Man made … ?
Or
God made … ?
To face these challenges,
there must be a vision
to ensure focused action.
January 11, 2013 42

43. What can be that vision?
It can be none other than

46. When an individual
or a team
is empowered
with technology,
transformation to
higher potential
for achievement
is assured.
January 11, 2013 46

47. A Healthy Nation is one
which provides its youth
with opportunities to acquire
the talents, skills, and knowledge
necessary to ensure
their healthy transition to
successful adult roles and
responsibilities.
January 11, 2013 47

48. Whatever you can do
or dream you can,
begin it.
Boldness has
genius,
power and
magic in it.
January 11, 2013 48

49. The means
are
as important as
the end
January 11, 2013 49

50. Particularly, in matters of Health -
whether physical, mental,
emotional or spiritual -
never take it for granted.
Realize that success can be
temporary and transient.
You have to
continuously strive to
maintain and sustain.
