30. 1:17addressing any school in Bombay I have
31. 1:19not addressed any school in Bombay I
32. 1:21come only
33. 1:27for I only come to Bombay for meeting
34. 1:30never to a school so when there was an
35. 1:32urgent meeting came down today evening I
36. 1:35have a 7:00 meeting then I thought why
37. 1:38can't I come little early anyway I I
38. 1:40waste half a day in Bangalore traffic
39. 1:43reaching airport I rather leave at 5: in
40. 1:45the morning reach bang Bombay at 8:30 so
41. 1:48that I can have a session with the
42. 1:51students and that then I opted for
43. 1:57this I'll tell you a small story
44. 2:00I am a grandmother of two grandkids like
45. 2:03today's how grandkids are there they are
46. 2:05like that normal okay that means more
47. 2:08talking and less
48. 2:10listening and my granddaughter's name is
49. 2:13Krishna and she told me they live in
50. 2:16London one day I told her to eat banana
51. 2:19fruits you know we India consider a good
52. 2:22fruit eat and then she said me a give me
53. 2:25La she calls me a like any Canada Grand
54. 2:30is called or maharashtrian grandmother
55. 2:31is called she said a give me a set of
56. 2:35reasons why one should eat banana a 5
57. 2:38years kid okay I said okay I will tell
58. 2:42you a story and then you feel like
59. 2:44eating you eat I said there was a Rishi
60. 2:47by the name dwasa I'm sure most of you
61. 2:49know whenever he used to go to anybody's
62. 2:51place they used to get scared of him why
63. 2:53this fellow has come let him go as early
64. 2:55as possible I'm sure when you are not a
65. 2:57nice person nobody welcomes you one day
66. 3:00his wife told him look people when they
67. 3:03you go people run away where I stayed
68. 3:05with you for such a long time don't you
69. 3:08think I deserve a boon or a special gift
70. 3:12first he was very upset then he said
71. 3:14okay fine I'll give you a special gift
72. 3:16what do you want she said I want a fruit
73. 3:20which is not grown in dealoka or up
74. 3:24above heaven which is grown on the earth
75. 3:27yet it should be used to worship God
76. 3:30B it
77. 3:32should it should flower once a year and
78. 3:35it should not have any seeds C all parts
79. 3:39of that tree should be used in cooking D
80. 3:43it should give fruits only once in a
81. 3:45year and the fruit should be not messy
82. 3:49kind you know like not like a mango or
83. 3:52apple and such fruit without giving that
84. 3:55to God the Puja will be incomplete he
85. 3:58said okay he made a banana he made a
86. 4:02tree and gave the flower a fruit to to
87. 4:05the God and then he called that her name
88. 4:08was kadali so he called that fruit a
89. 4:11kadali f kadali in Sanskrit became
90. 4:15banana in English later so whatever
91. 4:17banana tree you see that is the
92. 4:20intelligence of a woman who told her
93. 4:22husband the kind of fruit which is easy
94. 4:25to eat whose leaves are used for eating
95. 4:29whose bark is in the stem is used in
96. 4:32cooking whose flower is used in the
97. 4:34cooking which flowers once a year and
98. 4:37there are no seeds so I told it's such a
99. 4:40great fruit on the earth if you don't
100. 4:42want to eat Krishna you don't have to
101. 4:44eat but only learned people eat this one
102. 4:48what I'm telling you
103. 4:50is every
104. 4:53generation it's really wrong to tell
105. 4:56that our generation has lot more stress
106. 4:57that is the totally wrong parents please
107. 4:59please remove it from your head in case
108. 5:01you have such things I was in Egypt
109. 5:04about 15 years back then I took on
110. 5:07egyptology that is a very a person who
111. 5:10knows how to read hierography who knows
112. 5:12more about Egyptian history and went to
113. 5:15one place which is 7,000 years old and
114. 5:17there I saw the pyramid inside the
115. 5:20pyramid there was hierography so I asked
116. 5:22that fellow what it is written here you
117. 5:24tell me this fell told me the Builder of
118. 5:28Egypt pyramid have written about next
119. 5:31Generation next generation
120. 5:34is it doesn't respect time doesn't
121. 5:38respect money doesn't
122. 5:40respect Elders they have less common
123. 5:43sense they are less hardw workking I
124. 5:45really do not know how they will survive
125. 5:47suddenly I felt like you know my parents
126. 5:49talking to me like that every generation
127. 5:53feels next generation is less than ours
128. 5:56we very hardw working we talk no that is
129. 5:58really not true every generation have
130. 6:01their own plus and minus some totally
131. 6:04same any mathematics teacher or any
132. 6:06students who love mathematics will
133. 6:08appreciate this what is 1 by 2 half 1X 2
134. 6:13is 2x 4 it is also equal to 3x 6 it's
135. 6:16also equal to 4 by 8 it's also equal to
136. 6:1916 by 32 the moment I say 1X 2 and 16x
137. 6:2232 16 is a huge number one is small but
138. 6:26the ratio Remains the Same and that is
139. 6:28the way every generation has their own
140. 6:31plus minus Their Own Strength I've seen
141. 6:34my great grandmother my grandmother my
142. 6:36mother and me and my daughter you know
143. 6:38seven generation I have seen they were
144. 6:40always worried about disease because
145. 6:43there was no antibiotic in those days if
146. 6:45the child get fever the mother would
147. 6:47have been panicked today you go to a
148. 6:49pediatrician in those days it was not
149. 6:51there next Generation have seen there
150. 6:53was no connectivity coming to Bombay is
151. 6:55once in lifetime particularly from
152. 6:57people from Karnataka every generation
153. 6:59under Go a different stress but they do
154. 7:02undergo
155. 7:04stress now coming to this topic they
156. 7:06told me that you have to address student
157. 7:08parents I said I wanted to address
158. 7:09students actually but if parents are
159. 7:11interested I can but students may get
160. 7:13bored I want to tell something to
161. 7:15students and then I'll address parents
162. 7:17students you should understand one thing
163. 7:20when you are in school when you are in
164. 7:23school somebody looks after you your
165. 7:25teacher your parents look after you they
166. 7:28will tell you some good words and you
167. 7:29really get moved and they start cmon
168. 7:32your mind goes away somewhere because I
169. 7:33was also a student Once Upon a Time too
170. 7:36many things someone tells you then you
171. 7:38won't like it actually you won't like it
172. 7:41and too many things we should not tell
173. 7:42also if we want to tell parents you
174. 7:44should always tell in the form of a
175. 7:46story never tell directly you should be
176. 7:48hardworking as a child you may not like
177. 7:51it but please remember people who care
178. 7:54for you only will tell third person will
179. 7:57not tell please under don't don't
180. 7:59underestimate your parents and your
181. 8:01teachers it's your duty to understand
182. 8:04what they are telling for what reason
183. 8:06they are telling and you have to you

185. 8:13will pay its price later part of your
186. 8:15life what you don't learn now will never
187. 8:18be learned later it always false ideas
188. 8:22When I Grow Big you know I will do I
189. 8:24don't know some how many of you have
190. 8:25read my book The Story of portado Port
191. 8:28is a real story Port was my classmate he

198. 8:45College of 7 to 11 he will come around
199. 8:4610:00 or 9:00 earliest mean 9:00 and he
200. 8:50will sit here sit there attend two
201. 8:52classes after that afternoon he will
202. 8:55come for the lab Etc end of the year he
203. 8:57will one month he will get up early L
204. 8:59and he will study and you know there is
205. 9:01a method in college you take question
206. 9:04papers April and October whatever comes
207. 9:06in October will never come in April okay
208. 9:09I'm sure the school also you have
209. 9:11midterm will never come to final okay so
210. 9:14eliminate this question answers and then
211. 9:16make a approximate question paper and
212. 9:18study that and he used to get a first
213. 9:20class he did all four years like this
214. 9:23once I asked Port Port why you you are
215. 9:26such a bright person you don't come to
216. 9:28class if you come regular Sly he can get
217. 9:30distinction you can get a rank he said
218. 9:33sud you do not know in life it is not
219. 9:36the education it the connection it
220. 9:37really works and we have to build lot of
221. 9:40connections you know in when you are
222. 9:42young it helps you I came from a middle
223. 9:45class family my father was a doctor a
224. 9:48gynecologist I never understood this

255. 11:02that my subordinates came to know that I
256. 11:03don't have knowledge getting a first
257. 11:05class marks are different than knowledge
258. 11:08please remember parents your children
