2. Distinctions and disparities lead to the idea of superiority both on the individual and national level.

3. Mental power superior than physical power.

4. Knowledge attained by man gave him the power to rule over the elements that govern life.

5. All the discoveries and inventions of man, the manifestation of the power of knowledge.

6. Discipline, order and economy form the basis of the power given by knowledge

7. ‘Balance’ is the cardinal virtue of good sense.

8. Knowledge must mellow in wisdom which is the mark of culture and humanity.

9. The quest of knowledge should lead to the realization of the Truth.
