As Vaishnavite devotees celeberate Shree Raama Navarathri and as I try viewing as many TV programs on Lord Shree Raam, I fondly remember Shree Seshacharyulu, about whom I have written in my earlier posts.
He was my collegaue at a school in Vijayawada, India, many years back. An excellently disciplined gentleman and a very well qualified scholar in Sanskrit, he and his brothers are taking care of a nice Shree Raam temple in Ibrahimpatnam, a few kilometers outside Vijayawada.
During my professional career, whenever I had to assess teahching skills of teachers, I had always done it with confidence, except when assessing Shree Seshaachaaryulu's classes, for two reasons: My knowledge of Sanskrit was not sufficient enough and Shree Seshaachaaryulu was an exceptionally excellent Sanskrit teacher. In fact his classes sounded more like a Vishnu temple than a classroom.
I think that it is because of good people like him our world retains some goodness even today when evils are growing.
