Namaste,
Here is the second part of
5) Education and Society
-------------------------
Education is not the amount of information that is put into your brain and runs
rot there, undigested all your life. We must have LIFE-BUILDING, MAN-MAKING,
CHARACTER-MAKING, assimilation of ideas. If you have ASSIMILATED five ideas
and made them your LIFE and CHARACTER, you have more education than any man who
has got byheart a whole library.
*******************************************************************************

Every one wants to command, and no one wants to obey; and this owing to the 
absence of that wonderful brahmacharya system of yore. First, LEARN TO OBEY.
The command will come by itself. Always first learn to be a servant, and then
you will be fit to be a master.
*******************************************************************************

Give up the awful disease that is creeping into our national blood, that idea 
of ridiculing everything, that loss of SERIOUSNESS. Give that up. Be STRONG and
have this SRADDHA, and everything else is bound to follow.
*******************************************************************************

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 one's 
OWN FEET.
