It has been several years since I realized the true meaning of education. But only realization,is not enough. One needs to understand what lies beneath it ,as well as ultimately follow ones own guts. To begin with, how the understanding goes along , one must see the difference between the actual meaning and the meaning that majority comprehends.
As far as present scenario is concerned, education is merely a means to earn money which eventually ends with a luxurious life style. Various changes in the study pattern has been done, different streams and courses have been added which will provide us the right OPPORTUNITY. After gulping up all that knowledge,with all the money and reputation that has earned in all those working years , one fights in his head . Thoughts OFTEN provoke him to THINK AND ASK various questions like "What was the learning in all this?" or "what lessons did he miss all those years?"
Psychologists suggest, actual meaning of education lies in one's process of Growing up. As children grow,at the primary stage they are curious to learn new things. At that time they don't know what is a course or stream all about and they tend to gain KNOWLEDGE without boundations of mind. That is why selection of streams restrict us to learn and achieve more and we die without exploring our true potential.It is merely restraining our mind from thinking about BROADER ASPECTS OF LIFE. As we all know education is a never ending process. We will not get bored of it as long as the child in our mind is curious to learn,to question and to grasp more and more. This way life becomes more meaningful and ones ability to achieve success is multiplied.
