Memory Guru Programmes
in Schools !
Is it really
possible?
An
interview with Prof N. L. Shraman, The Memory Guru of India With Oamaza (USA )
How is Memory Guru Programme
different from rote learning?
Memorizing and writing without understanding is a last ditch effort for those
who cannot understand but some how they have to get marks.
Why
should you memorize if you understand?
Understanding, writing the exam and forgetting - is what we normally do.
Understanding, applying and remembering the knowledge forever can only make
the learning complete. If the matter is not of great importance and can be
forgotten without consequence then such matter need not find a place in
textbooks for children.
Remembering every thing in the textbooks - will it not cause unnecessary load
on the mind?
We
have two kinds of memory – Conscious and Sub Conscious. Conscious memory is like
the RAM in the computer. It is used for short term and can get overloaded.
Subconscious memory is infinite like the hard disk. We can remember whole
encyclopedias without effort - If we can programme the information in
Subconscious. It takes time to programme the Subconscious and that is only the
limitation.
How
fast can we programme the subconscious mind with a year’s textbooks?
First
of all the student has to understand the new knowledge and get proper connection
with his old knowledge. Then he has to make detailed mind maps. Then he has to
review these mind maps several hundred times. Normally it takes about 90 days of
preparation time for 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th children.
Rest
of the year they review and work on applications and on exams. This exercises
takes about 2 to 3 hours per day. Rest of the time is for other learning’s like
physical development, seva activities to the community, inter school sports,
drama, debate, quiz, dance, music, foreign languages, shilpa sastra, working
with teracota, stone, metal etc. people can come and see this
Memory Guru program in workshops. You can also visit: www.unlimitedmemory.co.cc
Can
other Schools take-up Memory Guru Education?
Our
intention is to provide this knowledge to all schools. Many schools are coming
forward to introduce this programme. We have planned Summer camps for children
starting from April 15th for 60 Days for children going to 9th,
10th, and 12th, Std. This will provide a good base even if they are not studying
Memory Guru
When were you successful in implementing this programme?
We
have been experimenting from 1960. We have been successful to train even
average students in school .
What
would be the difference between those who has studied by Memory Guru method and
other students in their future life?.
Normal
students would have forgotten almost everything within three years and they will
look more and more uneducated as days pass by. Students with Memory Guru will
become brighter and brighter and will be in the fore front of research and
knowledge.
What
you have done is an unbelievable revolution in education. How could you
accomplish this?
I got
the clues from our Vedic Pundits who remember huge texts of Vedas forever.
Similarly the Holy Quran, Ram Charit Manasa, Hanuman Chalisa, Shlokas, Ramayana,
Purana, Shrutis have been memorized by millions of people.
We
have applied similar methods to all the subjects including Sciences and
Mathematics also. The process is the well known Shravana, Manana and
Nidhidhyasa.
Does it interfere with the thinking power of the child ?
It
actually increases the thinking power and makes the child smart as many
Facts,Process and Methods are at his fingertips. You can remember not only facts
but also procedures for solving problems.
Why
this method has not been applied in education before?
Because many times rote memory has been equated to panditya (wisdom). Many times
people have memorized without understanding and do not know its application. As
a result educationist found it necessary to emphasis understanding. Now they
have gone over board and totally dismantled memory. Now we are just
understanding and forgetting. Now, after a few years no graduate is in a
position to answer their question papers (even with reasonable extra time) for
which they were awarded a degree. Our effort is to bring back genuine degrees.
Press Note on
Memory Guru Programme for Schools
Forgetting almost everything that we have studied with so much
effort for years is rather regrettable.
Prof N. L. Shraman did extensive research on the subject of
remembering what we have learnt for a lifetime. He set up The Memory Guru of
India . It took him seven years to demonstrate that it can be done even with
Science and Math’s. He is now able to digitize Education. Further he found that
not only Memory Guru can be achieved but also almost all students can also
achieve 100% marks.
The same methodology can also be applied to other schools with
the help of specialists trained by him. Many schools are looking forward to
implement the same in the coming years.
A brief on the methodology and procedures for implementation is
enclosed for more details on the programme.
The Memory Guru Programmes are available for educators to see
the programme in action on www.unlimitedmemory.co.cc. Parents can also visit the
site.
Guruji has been led by the ancient
methodologies, which he has clearly understood and applied. He has been able to
tap the subconscious long-term memory capacity of our mind. This break through
is as important as the shift from valves to transistors in electronics.
Digitization of Education is now possible.
