The verse underlines the fact that our knowledge is influenced by the ambience we are part of. So it is our bounden duty to ensure the quality of other factors too which are of considerable value. Life is diametrically changed and different from that in the last century. These changes can be perceived in the life styles, food habits, approach to the people, relations and social fabric. Then how can we expect a child to accept that stereotyped system of imparting education which had been used to teach us. In the changed scenario the words of Rabindra Nath Tagore are highly relevant.
