TRUE EDUCATION 5

by

   Swami Vivekanada

To me the very essence of

 education is concentration of mind, 

not the collecting of facts. 

If I had to do my education over again, 

and had any voice in the matter, 

I would not study facts at all, 

I would develop the 

power of concentration 

and detachment, 

and then with a perfect instrument, 

I could collect facts at will.

WORK

Nobody should avoid work.

“Through work alone can one remove the bondage of work, not by avoiding work.

Total detachment comes later on.

One should not be without work even for a moment.

Censure is the tax man pays to the public for being eminent."
