- Politics without Principles: Just as a citizen of this country is punished for breaking Law, Politicians should also be made accountable for breaking promises. Things will not improve till then.
- Education without Character: Education is for Life, not for Living. The end of education is character. Education without character is useless. Our character is reflected in our words, behavior and conduct in daily life. Intolerance in Society is reflection of lack of individual character.
- Science without Humanity: We live in a world of "guided missiles and misguided men," where we are technically advanced but we find it impossible to cope with the most basic of life's challenges: Humanity & how to live together in peace and health.
- Freedom without equality: Gender inequality is rampant in India. In Vedas it is said - Yatra Naryastu pujyante! Ramante tatra Devata - Where WOMEN are respected, GODS are Happy.
- Commerce without Morality: Profit motive in business has been exaggerated out of proportion. Morality, Ethical behavior and Social responsibility has been forgotten to earn more profit. Money comes and goes but Morality Comes and Grows.
- Religion without Sacrifice: People are fighting in the name of religion. The prophets came to unite all people - But today we divide ourselves in the name of the Prophets and even fight on behalf of them. There is onle one religion, The Religion of Love, there is only one Caste, the Caste of Humanity.
- The program concluded with vote of thanks by Prof. A.S.Shastri, Abhyasa Governing Body.
- More than 2000 guests and parents have attended the event.
