I do not see into the future, nor do I care to see. But one vision I see clear as life before me; that the ancient Mother has awakened once more, sitting on Her throne, rejuvenated, more glorious than ever. Proclaim Her to all the world with the voice of peace and benediction -Swami

Are you a teacher ?

•Then YOU have a special role to play because You are shaping generations.

•Make your students think of a developed India in their own ways and enthuse the students.

•Update their knowledge because a student is only as good as his/her teacher.

•Enthuse the student to think big.

•Do not transmit to the student your own frustration

-Kalam

Are you a student?

•Dream.

•Have the highest ideal you can dream.

•Make your life a mission towards that ideal.

•Think hard to achieve the dream.

•Work hard to make it a reality.

Are you in the media?

Spread the message of success, however small the successes are. Build an image of an India with hundreds of thousands of heroes and heroines who are changing the country’s destiny.

Are you a Clerk?

•If you can be an instrument in creating the feeling that the government (central, state or municipal) works speedily and justly then you have created the necessary condition for a developed India.

Are you just an individual?

•Devote a few days in a month to doing something better;

•something speedier.

•Something of high quality;

•something which will make you proud;

•Something that will make a poorer or suffering person’s life a little better.

A developed India by 2020, or even earlier, is not a dream. It need not even be a mere vision in the minds of many Indians. It is a mission we can all take up and succeed.

-Dr.APJ.Abdul Kalam

The longest night seems to be passing away, the sorest trouble seems to come to an end at last. …

From peak to peak of the infinite Himalayas of knowledge and of love and of work, India is awakening.

A wonderful, glorious, future India is coming. I am sure it is coming – a greater India than ever was. …

Let us all work hard my brethren, this is no time for sleep.On our work depends the coming of India of the future.

- Swami Vivekananda
