The Two foundation stones of self -- evolution ( Inner--Progress ) ( manan or Self--Appraisal and Chintan or Self Advancement )

The structure of progress of the inner-- self supported on four pillars. Ancient Indian scriptures describe  Bramha – the deity of creation,  as having four faces in four directions. It is believed that each of HIS four mouths pronounced the basic tents of wisdom, sicience and religion as four Vedas—which lay down the codes of conduct  for the mankind. A similar concept was made use of in the ancient four – fold classification of working classess of huminity ( varna )—now misconstructed as caste ( by virtue of linage ). The quartered division of an average span of human life as the four ashrams—each with its specific code of conduct , too followed the same principle. The four basic requisites for the evolution of the inner self are -----
(1)    Atm chintan  ( self-- advancement )
(2)    Atm sudhar  ( self-- improvement )
(3)    Atm nirman ( self –reformation )
(4)    Atm vikas    (self-- development )
These discipline are, however, coordinated and prctised collectively. It is like taking a meal in which all dishes are consumed in a proportion at the same time. One can not leave on bread for a few days and then change over to butter alone  for the remaining days. The school curriculum prescribes teaching of say language , mathematics, geography and history. It would not serve any purpose if each subject is taught exclusively in successive years. Cloths are generally worn in combination is it possible to wear only shirt for a year then trousers during the next or keep on wearing a part of the dress neglecting others ? co—ordination is the essence of work.
