Why is there so much anarchy and confusion in the world today? Why is there no peace? Is it because there are no educated people, and is it because there are no educational institutions? No, there are plenty of them, but the educated people do not have the necessary culture and breadth of vision along with their education. Our country has been known as the spiritual treasure house. Yet today we are forgetting the spiritual treasure and the real strength of our country. Children are not understanding even the meaning of education. For the root word ‘Vid’ if you add ‘Ya’ then you get Vidya (education). Here ‘Vid’ stands for illumination and ‘Ya’ stands for that. Therefore, that which gives illumination and light is Vidya. That which gives you light and sheds your ignorance and that which gives you wisdom and superior knowledge can alone be called Vidya. What promotes ignorance and darkness cannot be called Vidya.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
