Lord Rama received his education in the ashram of Guru Vashishtha, Lord Krishna gave the world the knowledge of Gita. He too received his education in the ashram of Rishi Sandipani. Teachers are the ones who shape the course of each era. Chanakya changed the map of India by educating Chandragupta Maurya. Guru Dronacharya imparted archery skill to Arjuna which turned out to be an epic lesson till today for determination and single minded focus. Swami Vivekananda’s guru Sri Ramakrishna Paramhans brought about important changes in his life. If we look at Chhattisgarh, Pandit Ravi Shankar Shukla gave his invaluable services as a teacher. There has been a glorious tradition of Guru in Rajnandgaon. The great litterateurs of the district Dr Padumlal Punnalal Bakshi, Dr Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh, Dr Baldev Prasad Mishra have been witnesses in Digvijay Mahavidyalaya and have progressed as the best litterateurs. There are so many examples of teachers, who have played a role in bringing about a change in the era in the country and have given a message for education and knowledge to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
