‘Use of Right words have great power to bring
the desired changes in life’ said Sh. 53rd Panjab University
Colloquium on ‘Research for Resurgence’, here today. He further added that each
one of us is unique in its own way and let the search from within begin for the
resurgence. Once the difference between right and wrong is understood, you get
used to doing good things in life. One matchstick is enough to enlighten the
darkness in one second. But to see that light of one second, it may take long
time to understand, he added. He said that research is the root of Education which
needs to Resurgence. Research is part of education, whereas, resurgence is part
of Life. It is very important what you give back to society, he added. His
lecture focused on explaining the essential link between knowledge and research
and mentioned that research is the essence of life and all of us should not
only center our lives towards what society has given us but should realize the
fact that we as humans are blessed with infinite options towards how we react
to the society and should strike a goal that it is our essential duty to also
contribute to our nature and society. Finally, he encouraged each one present
in the lecture hall to find that unique seed of talent hidden within each of us
and work very hard in finding who we really are and what is the purpose of our
lives to bring out newer innovations and enhance our and society’s quality of
life. He further elaborated that research for resurgence is a community
learning process which is the reminder that positivist and analytical paradigms
can be complemented or even replaced by indigenous and context sensitive
research creation process to address the challenges of current times. Bhartiya
perspective of life in general and knowledge in particular may enrich the
current discourse on research to make it more relevant for Desh(location),
Kaal(time), and Paristhiti(situation). This invitation is for exploring the
research practices that can offer alternatives to the positivist paradigms and
to develop a fresh perspective for research and knowledge creation for Bharat,
