Don't Underestimate The Power Of Youth

It is high time that the present world conditions are improved substantially. And this fundamental basic transformation can be accomplished only by the youth. In this dark slumber, who else can raise the voice but the youth ? Who can guide people back to the true and righteous path? It is only the youth that can do this.

Youth have high spirits. They accept responsibilities and challenging works, through which they can turn their dreams into reality through their innovative and evolving mind, sharp intellect and abundant physical energy and resolve. These need to be combined with virtues and moral values.

But it is sad that youth today is under many pressures and demands on him onone hand and many imposing influences of family, friends, teachers, political parties,elders and every segment of society, who wants youth to meet their expectations onthe other hand. At this stage of despair, depression, frustration of broken dreams, theyeven take to drugs or evil ways of life like indulging in violence, crimes, substance abuse, and use their energy in negative aspects. Therefore what Is required at this juncture, is to guide the youth and channelisethem towards positive all round development by-

-lnculcating moral values.
-settling correct objectives and goals in life.
-practice of meditation.

Youth is the most energetic and dynamic period of one's life. During this phase a person is full of enthusiasm and hope. Nature has gifted him with many special qualities and skillpowers during this time. A person remains flexible physically as well as mentally. Therefore, he is totally able to mould and shape his body and mind and can acquire many physical and mental skills. Concentration power as well as working efficiency are enormous in him.

Hence he is capable of learnnew subjects and progress academically.

Each and every cell in his body has the enormouos power to grow and repair itself when damaged. The power of his brain as well as the capacity to comprehend and remember are at its peak. Due to this unique ability youth are able to recover much faster from illnesses and accidents. Even during any brain damage, other parts are easily able to take up the functioning of the damaged part. Similarly, the heart and various other organs have a lot more capacity than is at least required for healthy functioning. In all fields of life, be it a space, race or business, youth is quite capable of taking a lead and can tackle any issue.

Youth is the guide and hope for the future generation. Although they have in them all the above mentioned capabilities, yet it is seen in the present world that their energy is being mostly channelized for destructive purposes. During the events of communal riots, ethnic violence, undesirable strikes in various cities etc. The power of youth is misused. Without knowing the long-term consequences of any of their actions, the youth waste their resource, time and energy and then repent all throughout their lives.

It is our appeal to the multitude of youth everywhere to recognise their ultimate potential - physical, spiritual, mental, as well as intellectual. These are the powers which can be utilised for their personal development as well as for the betterment of the society.

As has been right said the great leader Nelson Mandela-

The Youth of Today are the forthcoming Leaders of Tomorrow.
