Guru - A teacher for life!

In ancient India, there was a tradition of brahmacharyashram. This is a period of life, when a 7-8 year old child is sent to Teacher's-Guru's house for education. Where he has to live for next 12 years of his life and learn all the things whatever his Guru teaches him.
Student had to respect and pray there Guru's during his entire life. And why not....he is the creator of good citizens, or even a good king.
In our childhood, we are also taught to respect our Gurus, and we do so coz, we know what did they do to us, how much effort they take on us to make us well-educated, well-mannered citizen.
They love us more than their own child. They give us whatever they have just to make us successfull in life. Whatever kind of teacher s/he may be, even a Sports-teacher, but his lessons never goes in vain.
Now-a-days, in schools and colleges, students respect their teachers but most of the times the coz is fear of deduction of marks...they don't realize what this person is doing for us. With this blog I just want to request all the students to at least remember once what your teachers did for you and what would've happened to you wthout them.
So, that you can realize their importance in life and start respecting these legends!
