Humility is the ornament of knowledge
Vikram Sarabhai was a great Indian scientist who developed the science of space and satellite in India.
When he went to England for higher studies, he got an opportunity to learn about the latest development in the field of science. He made it a point not to miss any article or seminar which dealt with a scientific discovery or an invention. He thoroughly studied each and every topic of physics which had become his love.
Vikram was a popular student. The teachers were amazed at his brilliance and keenness of studies
Though Vikram was brilliant and ahead in studies, but he was never proud. He was always humble and behaved in a friendly manner with his fellow students.
Many a times Vikram was approached by his classmates to get their doubts cleared. He was very clear in the basic concepts of physics, he knew that if the fundamentals are clear , one may find it easier to grasp the other complex processes.
He was ready to help one. Most of the students would tell him, " You explain the things in a better manner than our lecturers, you must become a teacher, you make even complex things appear simple."
Vikram would smile at them, " My dear friends , you are making me feel embarrassed. I am not such a learned person as you think . I have got to learn still a lot more."
