Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee Commendation for Education 2019

“Be it stressing on the importance of Indian languages, the need to stay connected with the nation’s civilizational strength and rich heritage, walking in step with the rest of the world in science and technology and shaping Indian Education in a manner that it would appreciate the best of all religions rather than be totally cut off from them, Mookerjee’s insights on education were essentially to facilitate the rediscovering the Indian mind.”

The modern Indian scholar must have the training and the vision to connect our ancient history and civilisation with our present needs and conditions, and to suggest rules of conduct and formulate an outlook on life which the Indian society of today can worthily accept.

Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyay Recognition for Re-Engineering India

NOMINATE HERE

According to Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya’s Integral Humanism, the primary concern in India should be to develop an indigenous Development Model that has human beings as its core focus. It is opposed to both western capitalist individualism and Marxist socialism, though welcoming to western science

Integral Humanism seeks a middle ground between capitalism and socialism, evaluating both systems on their respective merits, while being critical of their excesses and alienness.

Humankind, according to Upadhyaya, has four hierarchically organized attributes of bodymindintellect and soul which corresponded to the four universal objectives of dharma (moral duties), artha (wealth), kama(desire or satisfaction), and moksha(total liberation or ‘salvation’). While none could be ignored, dharma is the ‘basic’, and moksha the ‘ultimate’ objective of humankind and society. He claimed that the problem with both capitalist and socialist ideologies is that they only consider the needs of body and mind, and were hence based on the materialist objectives of desire and wealth.

Integral Humanism rejects social systems in which individualism ‘reigns supreme’. It also rejects communism in which individualism is ‘crushed’ as part of a ‘large heartless machine’. Society, according to Upadhyaya, rather than arising from a social contract between individuals, was fully born at its inception itself as a natural living organism with a definitive ‘national soul’ or ‘ethos’ and its needs of the social organism paralleled those of the individual.

Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Recognition for Re-Engineering India 2019 aims at recognizing those institutions which have taken upon themselves to re-engineer themselves in the ambit of the philosophical precepts of Integral Humanism of which Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha are optimally balanced out. 

While Re-engineering as a management paradigm as professed by Michael Hammerin 1990s has its own definitive focus, we at ReTHINK INDIA are expanding the same to the ambit of foundational philosophical precepts providing an opportunity to the participating institutions to anchor back to their WHY, their very raison detre…

eduSOLUTIONS CHAMPIONS 2018

Get the Efficacy of Your eduSOLUTIONS Vetted HERE

Academic Institutions end up investing a significant chunk of their hard earned revenue on a host of eduSOLUTIONS which are at times offered to them by way of inducements and promises of bolstering the efficacy of their teaching learning processes. They range from the conventional peripherals to most modern ones claiming to complete the educational ecosystem and augment the entire educational delivery by their variegated products & services.
However, there exists no internal evaluation framework nor an external platform which motivates the school to undergo such an elaborate exercise.
By way of identifying eduSOLUTIONS Champions, ReTHINK INDIA intends to provide this very opportunity to the School Community at large to get the efficacy of their eduSOLUTIONS vetted and recognized.
Each of the participating institutions shall be duly recognized as an eduSOLUTIONS CHAMPION for this pro-active participation and sharing of key user experience much required to create a trusted ecosystem for eduSOLUTIONS.
You can get at most 3 eduSOLUTIONS enrolled into this framework. The Jury shall adjudge you on the basis of this submission. A nominal participation fee is kept to keep this exercise entirely independent of the influence of eduSOLUTION Providers.

“India of the ages is not dead, nor has she spoken the last creative word; she lives and has still something to do for herself and the human peoples”

These stirring words of Sri Aurobindo still reverberate in the hearts and minds of a large number of individuals and institutions which are working relentlessly to create a New India

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake

Inspired by the aforesaid words of Gurudev Rabindra Nath Tagore,
ReTHINK INDIA is thereby in the look out of New India Champions 2018 who have

Bolstered Hope for the Future of Indian People;
Induced Innovation in the Geo-Cultural Context of India

This intrinsic potential of the Indian people was duly unleashed by its very admirable Prime Minister Sri Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
ReTHINK INDIA has thereby chosen to ascribe these felicitations in his very name as a solemn tribute to the man who initiated it all
in the first place which is now being duly furthered by leaps and bounds by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

These awards are being extended to an eclectic mix of Institutions/Individuals of the Nation which have come forward
with a firm daring and introduced out of the box innovations in further enriching the Indian National Narrative in due consonance with her intrinsic life force & spirit of being.
