Teach to learn

Perhaps the greatest loss that we have experienced today after being educated is the loss of the ability to teach, and with it, the paucity of teachers.It is very easy to understand that knowledge has to be perpetuated in order to keep it alive,akin to life itself.However it is more easily forgotten. And sadly the number of people willing to teach without a purpose has fallen down in drastic numbers.I am sure that this will definately apply to the practice of  medicine as well.I was taught this by my mentor Dr Tamorish Kole ,who is the academic head of the emergency medicine department in Max Healthcare in New Delhi,and a vociferous supporter of spreading the knowledge of emergency medicine all over India, who strongly that for emergency medicine to grow,it has to be shared and spread to the level of the common man in India.He feels that an appreciation of anything can only come from a need arising out society itself, and that need has to be understood by society.Today ,when i begin this blogspace,I would surely dedicate it to the man behind all the inspiration.
Trois Hurras,Dr Tamorish Kole
