FDSGFDGSDFGFDGFGFDGDSFGFDSGFDGDFGFD Tirupati, both famous as pilgrim centres.
He graduated with a Master's Degree in Arts from Madras University. In partial fulfilment for his M.A. degree, Radhakrishnan wrote a thesis on the ethics of the Vedanta titled "The Ethics of the Vedanta and Its Metaphysical Presuppositions", which was a reply to the charge that the Vedanta system had no room for ethics. Professor A.G. Hogg awarded the following testimonial for this thesis:
"The thesis which he prepared in the second year of his study for this degree shows a remarkable understanding of the main aspects of the philosophical problems, a capacity for handling easily a complex argument besides more than the average mastery of good English".
The thesis indicates the general trend of Radhakrishnan's thoughts... In his own words, "Religious feeling must establish itself as a rational way of living. If ever the spirit is to be at home in this world, and not merely a prisoner or a fugitive, spiritual foundations must be laid deep and preserved worthily. Religion must express itself in reasonable thought, fruitful action and right social institutions."
In April 1909, he was appointed to the Department of Philosophy at the Madras Presidency College. From then on, he was engaged in the serious study of Indian philosophy and religion, and was a teacher of Philosophy.
In 1918, he was appointed Professor of Philosophy in the University of Mysore. Three years later, he was appointed to the most important philosophy chair in India, King George V Chair of Mental and Moral Science in the University of Calcutta. Radhakrishnan represented University of Calcutta at the Congress of the Universities of the British Empire in June 1926 and the International Congress of Philosophy at the Harvard Univesity in September 1926. At the Philosophical Congress held at Harvard University, the lack of spiritual note in modern civilization was the focus of his address to the general meeting.
In 1929, Radhakrishnan was invited to take the post vacated by Principal J. Estin Carpenter in Manchester College, Oxford. This gave him the opportunity to lecture to the students of University of Oxford on Comparative Religion. During that visit, he also gave the Hibbert Lectures on "An Idealist View of Life" to audiences at the Universities of London and Manchester. In his own words, "It was a great experience for me to preach from Christian pulpits in Oxford and Birmingham, in Manchester and Liverpool. It heartened me to know that my addresses were liked by Christian audiences. Referring to my sermon on "Revolution through Suffering", an Oxford daily observed, "Though the Indian preacher had the marvellous power to weave a magic web of thought, imagination and language, the real greatness of his sermon resides in some indefinable spiritual quality which arrests attention, moves the heart and lifts us into an ampler air."
From 1936-39, Radhakrishnan was the Spalding Professor of Eastern Religions and Ethics at Oxford University. In 1939, he was elected Fellow of the British Academy. From 1939-48, he was the Vice-Chancellor of the Banaras Hindu University. He later held offices that dealt with India's national and international affairs. He was the leader of the Indian delegation to UNESCO during 1946-52. He was the Ambassador of India to U.S.S.R. during 1949-52. He was the Vice-President of India from 1952-1962 and the President, General Conference of UNESCO from 1952-54. He held the office of the Chancellor, University of Delhi, from 1953-62. From May 1962 to May 1967, he was the President of India.
Aldous Huxley observed that Dr. Radhakrishna

    Where were you when the World Trade Towers were attacked? Are you old enough to remember? This is our generation’s Pearl Harbor. We remember and we honor today (September 11th) those who lost their lives, directly or indirectly, from a brutal, horrific, terrorist attack. We sought and still seek justice. Yet, while we must remember (and honor the fallen), we must also not forget that the terrorists did not and do not represent all Muslims. If we claim to welcome diversity, then we must also extend that welcome to anyone who comes to this country for the right reasons – for a better life, to raise good citizens, to worship without censure, and to contribute to our democratic society. We do not have to accept terrorists; we do not have to welcome them and we do not have to tolerate a terrorist ideology, but we must also remember to separate the wheat (good) from the chaff (bad). We should do this for all nationalities and ethnicities who wish to come to America: Muslims, Jews, Palestinians, Africans, Mexicans, Cubans, Asians, and Europeans. The good ones – they too, have something valuable to contribute. They too, have narratives. And unless one is a full-blood indigenous person, all other ancestors came from somewhere else. So let us see with eyes and minds wide open so that we can learn the difference between the good and the bad.…

    Articles of Confederation DBQ Directions This will be your first attempt at constructing a response to a Document Based Question (DBQ). For your sanity, you will not be writing an entire response for a full set of documents. You will be given four documents related to the Articles of Confederation and the accompanying prompt. From that material you must construct an introductory paragraph (with thesis), two body paragraphs which support your thesis, and a conclusion. Feel free to discuss the documents, your thesis, and your arguments with your classmates you must, however, write a unique essay. Things To Keep In Mind (adapted from the College Board website) - Be prepared to define or explain central terms (such as major change, progressive, conservative, etc.) that may appear to be obvious but can be ambiguous. - Start with a clearly stated thesis in your introduction. - In addition to having a strong thesis, it is a good idea to have a guiding organizational principlea stated agenda for making your point. Try to integrate your outside information into your response. Your exam shouldnt read as if you threw in a few tidbits of outside information at the end. - Many good essay writers demonstrate a sense of complexity in the documents, showing that most of the evidence may point in one direction but that part of the evidence points in a different direction. It is better, however, to support a clear, simple thesis than to create artificial complexity that you cannot support using the documents or outside knowledge. Almost every essay prompt is designed to allow the student to agree or disagree with the statement. Your ultimate goal should be to present a well-argued and well-supported thesis, not merely to give the people scoring the essay what you think they want. - The best essays are those that marshal the positive arguments in favor of their position but that also refute or answer possible rival theses. Even if you think a statement is completely true, it is…

    Elective- Human Resources Management As an HRD Manager what steps you will initiate before dismissing a workman found guilty of misconduct where there is the presence of a strong employees union. Dear Trupti,You have mentioned in your discussion that the Workman has been found guilty of misconduct. What does this mean - whether the inquiry has been conducted and the report has been submitted by the Inquiry Officer, or the evidence are very strong and on that basis it has been construed that the alleged employee is guilty.If in the Inquiry Report, the charges of misconduct have been proved, nothing doing, just obtain approval of Competent Disciplinary Authority regarding dismissal of the guilty workman, no matter how strong labour union exists. Because, if you take a lenient view with this case, the instances of recurrence will increase and the system will be the sole responsible identity for such lapses.If inquiry has not been conducted, and inference is based on evidences, then better take following steps before coming to any conclusion so as to defend your action before any Court or legal entity.1) Obtain a complaint in writing of misconduct. It would be better if the complaint is supported by some witness(es) or material evidence.2) After obtaining a complaint, frame a Chargesheet cautiously as per the Certified Standing Orders of the Company or Model Standing Orders, as deemed fit and applicable to your Company. Issue the Chargesheet giving 3 days time from the receipt of C/Sheet for submitting explanation in his defense by the employee.3) If the explanation is not satisfactory, issue a letter to accused workman(AW) that the explanation is not satisfactory and there is scope of further investigation which will be done by the Inquiry Officer, so appointed by the Disciplinary Authority(DA).4) Obtain approval for appointing Inquiry Officer(IO) and Management Representative(MR).5) Issue order for appointment of IO MR advising them to conduct fair and impartial…

    I’m told that at sixteen, I should be too young to have regrets. However, I do not agree with this as I already have several. but what’s done is done. I think that any choice that you have made in the past it is up to you to be prepared to deal with the consequences of that decision, whether it has been a well thought out decision or just something as simple as being in the wrong place at the wrong time, both of which has happened to me. However, my biggest regret in life is giving up on my sporting career.…
