Since 1962, India has been celebrating Teacher’s Day on 5th
September. The day commemorates the birthday of Dr Sarvepalli
Radhakhrishnan, a philosopher and a teacher, and his mindflex

creating responsible citizens and good human beings. This day is
celebrated to show our acknowledgement and recognition of the hard work
put in by our teachers towards our development.

equally special day for teachers, as they get to know how much they are
liked and appreciated by their students.
September 5th marks a special day in India. According to The Times of India, it is Teacher’s Day, or what the denizens of India refer to in Hindi as Shikshak Diwas.
Teacher’s Day is designed to shower praise on the many teachers in
India who strive diligently every single day to educate the nation’s
youths. Furthermore, it’s commonplace for some students to dress up as
their favorite teacher and then takeover for some of their teacher’s
lectures.
This holiday sprung into existence back in 1962 for the purpose of
celebrating the birthday of the second President of India, Dr.
Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, who himself was both a teacher and a big
believer in the power of education.Festival of India explains
that when Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan became president, his students
and friends (who loved him dearly) asked for permission to celebrate his
birthday. He reportedly responded by saying, “Instead of celebrating my
birthday seperately, it would be my proud privilege if September 5 is
observed as Teacher’s Day.” And thus the holiday was born and still
remains in effect to this day.
So what was so special about the man who inspired Teacher’s Day? The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy
reveals that he was was an avid philosopher who basically did something
that nobody else had ever been able to do before in Indian history: he
put India’s religious-based philosophy on the world map.
Prior to Radhakrishnan, India’s philosophical and religious teachings
were viewed by Westerners with much disdain. What he basically did was
show that Indian teachings, when translated into the jargon of academia,
were a valid philosophy deserving of worldwide recognition and respect.
He thus helped formulate what many now consider to be the contemporary
Hindu philosophical identity. He also helped bridge a gap between
Western and Indian philosophies and traditions.
