A university professor from Patna, affectionately called ‘Love Guru’
by youngsters, is setting up a school at his native village Jayrampur in
Bihar’s Bhagalpur district to teach students lessons in love.
“Immortal love drives us towards creation... Love means sacrifice; there is no place for selfishness in it,” Gulf News quoted Patna University professor of Hindi, Matuk Nath Chaudhary as saying on Sunday.
According to Chaudhary, love has two faces — the first one is destructive while the other one is creative.
“Sadly,
today’s youth class is caught up with the second form of love. We will
teach them how to set examples for the society by displaying supreme
sacrifice,” he said
Chaudhary was sacked from service in 2009
after his extramarital affair with his student Julie — less than half
his age — became public but his job was restored after he, along with
Julie and sympathisers, staged a sit-in in Patna seeking reinstatement
of his job, the publication said.
“School education is teaching
students only about the outside world; it is not teaching them about
inner knowledge. There must a balance between the two,” he added.
