Human beings are not born human beings; they have to be educated to become human beings.

A human baby needs to take two births before it can be rightfully called as a human being. There is ignorance, there is greed, there is envy, there is lust, there is fear, there is jealousy, and it’s so easy to waste away one’s life driven by these powerful inner forces. We bring it into the world right from the womb. If you do not liberate the child from that, then the child will live a very pre-scripted life.

So, that is what education must do. We need schools to clear this biological burden, and then knowledge will not merely be a burden on the mind; instead knowledge will be a liberating factor.
