The Institute of Architecture and Planning believes in the principle of
‘Guru Kumhar, Shishya Kumbh hai, gadi gadi kadhe khot, andar hath sahaer de ,bahar bahe chot’ Inspiring the worldly creatures towards the sunrise, Shiromani Kabirdasji says- Guru is a potter and a disciple is like a clay pot. Just as to make the pit beautiful, put his hand inside and beats it from outside, similarly by keeping the disciple in a strict discipline, by keeping the feeling of love from within, removing the evil of the disciple and makes him honourable in the world. Thereby, to inspire, involve and transform the student for achieving theoretical as well as practical knowledge. Observation, perception and visualization are the core tools to cultivate young minds towards imagination and creativity.
