With your enormous influence around the world, I see that you are doing fantastic work at leadership levels with youth and business leaders, but for an old business bandicoot like me, I listen to your inspiring speech but go back to my bad old ways when I go out of this room.

Gurudev, these days, the universities and the colleges have lowered their standards so much. Why don’t you open up a college or university where we can give our children good education?
