“Without Teachers, Life Has No Class.”

The next time when you say you came up with your own grit and determination, dig deeper. There is always someone who worked or helped you get where you are. Mentors, guides, teachers, parents, guardian angels, God or the occasional good luck, worked magic with your successes. So work hard or smart and watch out for that Godfather or whoever that boosts you. Without the framework, the world doesn’t stand. Likewise, Swami Vivekananda had Shri Ramakrishnaji, who had his teachers too.

As we grow in our world we shouldn’t forget to acknowledge and give credit to those who helped us get where we are. Similarly, in my life, I will attribute everything that I am today and where I will be tomorrow to my KrsnaGuru. If not for his teachings and efforts I am a nobody. It is because of him; I strive to learn, to be a visionary, a problem solver, fighter, and many more.

My master empowers me to fight my battles. He practically demonstrates the mechanics behind the aircraft engine using the exhaust fan. He explains the most complex subjects as he would to a five-year-old. I can never repay him ever, and the only way I can is by giving back to this world.

“The best teachers teach from the heart and not from the book.”
