TRUE EDUCATION
Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.. Therefore the only duty of the teacher in both cases is to remove the all obstructions from the way..
The very reason of nature’s existence is for the education of the soul;It has no other meaning;
It is there because the soul must have knowledge and through knowledge free itself. If we remember this always,we shall never be attached to nature,we shall know that nature is a book in which we are to read and that when we have gained the required knowledge,the book is of no more value to us.
We want that education by which character is formed,Strength of mind is increased the intellect is expanded and by which one can stand on ones’s own feet.
Bring light to the poor and bring more light to the rich for they require it more than the poor. Bring light to the ignorant,and more light to the educated for the vanities of the education of our time are tremendous.
Education is not the amount of information that is put into your brain and runs riot there ,undigested all your life. We must have life-building men-making character -making assimilation of Ideas. If you have assimilated five Ideas and made them your life and character,you have more education any man who has got by heart a whole library.
What is education? Is it book learning? No. Is it diverse knowledge? Not even that, The training,by which the current and expression of the will are brought under control and become fruitful,Is called Education.
