42 Undeniable Absolute Principles
how to ensure a superior
education to your child?
rule-1
respectindividuality
The individuality of the child should be respected.
The child should be taught according to the individuality of that child.
The education should be child-centered, and not teaching centered.
rule-2
freedom
12biseriapuneet.combiseriapuneet.com
freedom
The child should be given the freedom to choose what it wants to learn.
The way it wants to learn, and the pace to learn it.
The freedom should be given to let the child take his time, to learn that
particular thing.
Efforts should be made to let the taught seep in; however, if not, it should be
left.
It can be taught later. (or in the later years of life).
rule-3
Identify/develop the inborn/innate power of child
20
Every child has some special talents.
It is the responsibility of the teachers, as well as parents to identify and develop
those special qualities.
The ultimate objective of doing this, is to enable the child to earn its livelhood
through that inborn talent.
rule-4
nature
26
The child should be taught in the lap of the nature.
No restrictions should be made, if the child wants to play in the time of
learning.
rule-5
learning by
doing
31
Self explanatory.
rule-6
learning byexperience
35
Our mind constantly evaluates situations.
It is the process which we use to solve our problems.
How we solve our problems? (6 steps)
1. To realize that there is a problem.
2. To evaluate the reasons behind that problem.
3. To arrange the information.
4. To collect the solutions to remove that problem.
5. Application of those solutions.
6. Accept or reject the outcome.
Every human being has the tendency to solve the problem, and when a person
faces a lot of problems or problematic
situations, we call that person an
experienced person.
46
try new
things
These 6 steps constitutes the experience of a person. And therefore the ultimate
rationale of education is to,
Teach the experiences which a person can come across in his surroundings.
And we can construct, deconstruct, and reconstruct the experiences
accordingly.
That is to say, that when a person faces a problem, he is a different person; and immediately after
facing it, he is a different person; and after a
considerable period of time after facing that
problem, the person is a different person with an
altogether different outlook.
Read it once again to let it seep in.
The more a person faces a particular set of problems, the more expert he
becomes in solving those.
That is, to use the experience acquired from a different context to a different
context.
rule-7
Minimise memorization
56
Minimise memorization
It is very important to know how to find an answer on the internet.
The child should be taught about the basic facts, so that they can link the
information.
No time should be wasted in memorising the useless facts.
The child should be trained only to assemble and evaluate the information.
The child should be encouraged to try new things
In the beginning, the child obviously will commit a lot of mistakes.
Let them, if they commit mistakes, they should not be discouraged or ridiculed.
The child should not feel frightened in committing mistakes.
Encourage them.
The child should be encouraged to do its best.
Never seek or ask for perfection.

it in full detail, PLUS, you must do it regularly.
The knowledge does not mean to know it means to become.
rule-9
practical
77
Related to life
Education should be of such quality that whatever is
taught, and the child should be able to practice that thing
in his real life. Then there are things which are taught
in the curriculum such as the experiment of calculating the velocity of life, but when we already know it, what is the
point of wasting time to learn that experiment.

healthy, how to cook food,
swimming, do those sort of things which it can really
use in his life.

By means of which a child can attain a powerful body.
Concentration should be made on practical aspects and not only on
theoretical aspects.

And how it should carry itself in the society.
Let them Talk
To communicate is the most important life skill.

Like placing the order to the waiter, ask the librarian for help, et cetra
The child should be able to deliver a firm, traditional handshake.
The child should be able to make eye contact.
The child must have the ability to look into the eyes when talking to anyone.
rule-22
adaptability
Adaptability
To inculcate the ability to alter itself or its responses to the changed
circumstances or environment.
rule-24
walk while you
study
200
One should keep on walking while one is studying.
It will not only build the stamina, and will also develop a healthy and strong
body.
It is seen that most of the studious students
have a weak digestion system, or they are suffering
from one or the other lifestyle related
diseases.
This is the best remedy, which I have practiced.
rule-25
How to learn / teach?
This is a very important point.
No attempt should be made cram the subjects.
Topics should be taught by means of debates and questioning and
answering.
Debates, questions, answers puts the brain into action and child learns by
question everything.
211
debate
It enhances the reasoning capacity.
It also enhances to power to observe things closely and judge it.
It clarifies everything related to the topic.
Plus, it also makes the class more participative.
rule-26
Learning by Questioning and Answering is the
best way of learning
218
rule-27
History should be taught
221
But the students should only be told about the history and every topic should
be repeated several times.
But the child should not be asked to learn the dates.
It is only learning dates that makes history a dreadful subject.
The concentration should be paid in knowing what happened.
And not when did it happen.
Same goes with Civics, Geography, and Economics.
The child should be taught about the basics of these subjects.
I have learnt everything when I was a student in
school, and now, I do not remember most of the things related to
History, Civics, Geography, and
Economics, but then also I am doing fine.
Algebra Should be abandoned.
In my 34 years of life, not for a single time, I was able to use any concept of
algebra.
rule-28
The child should be taught in its Mother tongue. Period.
234
Taught in the
Mother tongue.

If a child is not intelligent in a
particular subject, let it be; the
concentration should be paid on that
subject in which the child has the innate talent / capacity to
master.
rule-29
use museu
ms
238
Every attempt should be made to create a museum.
And if that is not possible, interesting pictures should be collected.
Interesting pictures, cartoons, eye catchy
photographs, scenes of movies, everything,
which can impart some knowledge, should be collected / stored and
should be delivered in a timely manner.
It really boosts the learning.
rule-30
productivity
245
rule-31
Whatever is taught should produce something.
By concentrating on producing something, the child may learn the
importance of time / resources / labor.
rule-32
read
251
Read
The child should be taught to develop a taste for reading.
I am talking about the word AUTODIDACT.
The child should be encouraged to read. Even if it is a comic book.
It is even recommended by the
Oxford University that the child who read comics, learn
the words by contexts, which fixes the word into their
memory.
Children naturally take interest in reading comics.
Interesting books should be carefully selected so as to attract the attention of
the children.
The penultimate aim is to develop the interest of the child in reading.
The ultimate aim is enable the child to be an autodidact.
rule-33
vocation
262
Vocation
The education should enable the child to earn one’s livelihood, by doing the
things one likes.
As soon as the child reaches the age of 15, the child should be asked to earn
some money.
Doing all these odd jobs, teaches a lot of things, and teaches the child about
the value of things.
It will develop the economic efficiency.
Which in turn will develop the industrial competency.
Which in turn will develop the entrepreneurial instinct.
It will remove the problem of unemployment.
The economic efficiency means earning one’s own living, as well as of those who
are dependent on that person.
It will also render the ability to manage economic resources usefully instead of
wasting it in attaining luxuries.
rule-34
education should
liberate
274
The child must learn to strike a balance between self-control and freedom.
rule-35
The curriculum should be synchoronized with other subjects.
278biseriapuneet.com
Synchronized

If the science teacher is teaching Photosynthesis. The social science
teachers must be teaching things related to social, geographical, historical, economical aspects of vegetation
(photosynthesis). The English teacher and the Hindi teacher must be teaching
about the vocabulary pertaining to plants (photosynthesis), and the Teacher of
Mathematics, about the Mathematical aspects of photosynthesis (carbon
footprints, how much oxygen a tree of a particular size releases, nitrogen, global warming) and how to calculate those.
Everything should be adapted according to the individuality of the
child.
Secondly, if the teacher sees that a child is not
good at mathematics, it is not necessary that the teacher should
deliberate mathematics, the teacher should
deliberate that subject for which the child has a
penchant for.
It is not only the duty of the teacher, but of the parents as well to identify the caliber of the child and teach
accordingly.
We, as parents and teacher, have to concentrate on the strengths of the child
and not on the weaknesses.
12-24 is the best time to learn
rule-36
All necessary things should be taught.
287
If you are an Indian, you must be aware of the exams of SSC (Staff
Selection Commission), which contains a superior blend of questions related
to Language aptitude, Maths aptitude, Reasoning
aptitude, and General Knowledge.
I am giving you a rule and this rule should be followed religiously.
The rule is to solve at least one question paper of SSC.
The General Knowledge section of SSC is very diverse
and contains a lot of things which most of
the most reputed curricula cannot afford to teach.

capacity to think and evaluate, so that the child can develop the
understanding of right and wrong by
themselves.
