教育者で研究者のサティエンドラ・クマール・ラジプト教授が、貧しい幼少期から学業での挫折、GATEでの99.37%の高得点、競争試験や研究の失敗を経て、科学イノベーションと大学運営の道へ進むまでを語ったTEDxIPECの講演です。人生は一直線ではなく、転落が次の上昇の勢いになるという考えが軸になっています。

• 幼少期の苦労、学業の挫折、競争試験への挑戦
• GATEで99.37%を取得した後の研究上の課題
• グルクラ・カングリ大学でのイノベーション、知的財産、インキュベーションの指導的役割

The Seesaw of Success is a personal story of rising from humble beginnings through a remarkable cycle of failure, curiosity, learning, achievement, and transformation. From childhood struggles and academic setbacks to becoming a topper, achieving 99.37% in GATE, overcoming repeated failures in competitive examinations and NET attempts, and progressing through research challenges and failed experiments, the journey demonstrates that setbacks can become powerful stepping stones to success. The journey extends beyond personal achievement into scientific innovation, publications, leadership, and institutional transformation, from a child in mud to Muddy Professor, Head, Dean, and leader of innovation, IPR, incubation, external-interface, and campus-development initiatives at Gurukula Kangri Vishwavidyalaya, founded by Swami Shraddhanand during the challenging era of British rule. The talk challenges the myth of a straight path to success and presents life as a seesaw: every fall can generate the momentum for the next rise i.e. Fall. Learn. Adapt. Rise. Repeat.
