Education is not for mere living; it is for life, a fuller life, a more meaningful, and more worthwhile life!

 If value is given to the office that a man holds, which is but temporary, as soon as he retires and starts sitting on a bench in a park, people will stop recognising and saluting him! The schooling that gives just outer polish is a waste of opportunity. Education is not for mere living; it is for life, a fuller life, a more meaningful, and more worthwhile life! There’s no harm if it’s also for gainful employment, but the educated must be aware that existence is not all, that gainful employment is not all! Again, education is not for developing the faculty of argument, criticism, winning a polemic victory over your opponents or exhibiting your mastery over language or logic!That study is best that teaches you to conquer this cycle of birth and death, that gives you mental equipoise that will not be affected by the prospect of death, that will not be disturbed by the blessings or blows of fate. That study begins where this study of yours ends!
