Explanation:

I must have been about seven when I was put into a primary school and I can well

recollect those days, including the names and other particulars of the teachers who

taught me. I do not remember having ever told a lie, either to my teachers or to my

schoolmates. I used to be very shy and avoided all company. My books and my lessons

were my sole companions. To be at school at the stroke of the hour and to run back

home as soon as the school closed—that was my daily habit.

Two incidents belonging to this period have

always clung to my memory. As a rule, I had

a distaste for any reading beyond my school

books but somehow my eyes fell on a book

purchased by my father. It was Shravana

Pitribhakti Nataka (a play about Shravana’s

devotion to his parents). I read it with

intense interest. One picture in the book

showed Shravana carrying his parents onpilgrimage. The book and the picture

left an undying impression on my

mind. ‘Here is an example for you to

copy,’ I said to myself.

Another similar play—Harishchandra—

captured my heart. ‘Why should not

all be truthful like Harishchandra?’

was the question I asked myself day

and night.

To follow truth and to go through all ordeals Harishchandra went through was the

one ideal it inspired in me.

There was another such incident during the time when I was in the seventh standard.

Dorabji Gimi, the headmaster, was very popular among the boys, as he was a

disciplinarian, a man of method and a good teacher. He had made gymnastics and

cricket compulsory and I disliked both. I never took part in any exercise before they

were made compulsory. I then had the false notion that gymnastics had nothing to do

with education. Today I know that physical training is as important as mental training.

The reason for my dislike for gymnastics was my keen desire to serve as nurse to my

father. As soon as the school closed, I would hurry home and begin serving him. Now

it happened that one Saturday, I had to go from home to the school for gymnastics

at four o’clock in the afternoon. I had no watch, and the clouds deceived me. When

I reached the school all the boys had already left. The next day, on being asked the

reason for absence, I told Mr Gimi what had happened. He refused to believe me. I was

convicted of lying! That deeply pained me. How was I to prove my innocence? There was

no way. I learnt that a man of truth must also be a man of care. This was the fi rst and
