His teachings emphasised that the realization of the existence of God is the supreme goal of all living beings.

#सनातन धर्म में #विद्यारंभ संस्कार
शुभ घड़ी में #कलम-दवात और #पटरी का पूजन करने के बाद ही प्रारंभ होती थी । पाठशाला में जब बच्चा प्रवेश लेता था तब दूधिया भरी दावात और #नरकट की बनी कलम होती थी। गांव में गड़ही और जलाशय के किनारे नरकट होता था।
पका नरकट काटकर बच्चे खूबसूरत कलम गढ़ते थे। उसके उपरांत लकड़ी की काली पटरी पर सफेद दूधिया में कलम डूबो कर सुंदर लिखाई की जाती थी .
खास बात यह थी कि पांचवी कक्षा तक नरकट और कीरिच की कलम से लिखने के चलते लिखावट बेहद सुंदर होती थी।
परंतु आज प्रचलन में न कलम रही ना दवात। नरकट आज भी है पर इसका प्रयोग महज मड़ई निर्माण तक ही रह गया है। पटरी और कलम-दवात का प्रचलन बंद होने से शिक्षा भी प्रभावित है .. परम्परायें पुरानी होने के साथ धीरे-धीरे खत्म होती चली जाती है ,पर बच्चों को इसी में आनंद आता था।

#तुलसीदासजी का जन्म संवत् 1554 की श्रावण शुक्ल सप्तमी के दिन #सरयूपारीण#ब्राह्मण के परिवार में हुआ था
जन्मते समय बालक तुलसीदास रोए नहीं, किंतु उनके मुख से #राम का शब्द निकला। उनके मुख में बत्तीसों दाँत मौजूद थे जिसे देखकर पिता अमंगल की शंका से भयभीत हो गए थे।
तुलसीदास लगभग साढ़े पाँच वर्ष अनाथ हो गए थे। ऐसी मान्यता है #माता#पार्वती ब्राह्मणी का वेश धारण कर प्रतिदिन उसके पास जातीं और उसे अपने हाथों से भोजन करा जातीं। संवत् 1561 माघ शुक्ल पंचमी श्री नरहरि ने उसका यज्ञोपवीत संस्कार कराया और उनका नाम #रामबोला रखा।
बिना सिखाए ही बालक रामबोला ने #गायत्री-मंत्र का उच्चारण किया, जिसे देखकर सब लोग चकित हो गए।
अयोध्या में ही रहकर उसे विद्याध्ययन कराने लगे।
बालक रामबोला की बुद्धि बड़ी प्रखर थी। एक बार गुरुमुख से जो सुन लेते थे, उन्हें वह कण्ठस्थ हो जाता था।
