Let’s see what Gurudev says about holistic & spiritual education globally.
!1. Spiritual education gives one a very compassionate heart. This type of spiritual education is needed, and not just education.
!2. An integral aspect of education is cultivating the right attitude. Proper attitude at the right time and place determines your actions and behavior.
!3. Knowledge purifies the mind. Love purifies the heart. Seva (Service) purifies Karma.
!4. The vision of creating a divine society begins with strengthening education at the grassroots.
!5. Education should have more compassion, not commerce.
!6. “It is education that makes us human, and if it doesn't, we need to look into the causes. It is educationists who help us in this effort.”
!7. Educate where there is ignorance and stand up against injustice and provide where there is lack.
!8. Knowledge prepares us to dive into devotion. Only Divine love brings fulfillment
