It is very easy to explain importance of education. No human beings are
able to survive properly without education. By the means of education
only one’s potential can be used to maximum extent. Education tells men
how to think, how to work properly, how to make decision. Through
education only one can make separate identity. It is most important in
life like our basic need foods, clothe and shelter. With the beginning
we learnt how to interact with others, how to make friends because of
education only. As I remember when my parents had enrolled my name in
school not only I learnt the alphabets and numbers but also I made
friends, interacted with them with teachers. With further development
you were faced with the sense of competition and desire and other such
emotions and feelings, you also learnt to control these emotions and
feelings. And also teaches how to act in different situations. Education
is not just restricted to teaching a person the basic academics, say
computers, mathematics, geography or history education is a much larger
term. If you want to find out the impact of education on any
individuality, you better do an intense observation to the ways of
well-educated people and then compare them with an illiterate man. You
would get a clear picture of the education and its accurate concept.
Education is one of the important factors which formulate the persona of
a person. Education is a productive and beneficial factor in a person’s
life. It is everyone’s right to get. The training of a human mind is
not complete without education. Only because of education a man are able
to receive information from the external humanity, to notify him with
past and receive all essential information concerning the present. When
one travels around the world, one observes to what an extraordinary
degree human nature is the same, whether in India or Australia, London,
Europe or America. Conservative education makes independent thinking
extremely complicated. If we are being educated merely to achieve
distinction, to get a better job, to be more efficient, to have wider
domination over others, then our lives will be shallow and empty. If we
are being educated only to be scientists, to be scholars wedded to
books, or specialists addicted to knowledge, then we shall be
contributing to the destruction and misery of the world. We may be
highly educated, but if we are without meaningful combination of thought
and feeling, our lives are incomplete and clashing. Education develops a
meaningful outlook on life. The individual are different but to
accentuate the differences and to encourage the development of a
definite type education is must. Education is not just a matter of
training the mind. Training makes for efficiency, but it does not bring
about completeness. Knowledge and efficiency are necessary, which brings
up by education. Education should help us to discover lasting values;
unfortunately, the present system of education is making us submissive,
emotionless and deeply thoughtless. Systems, whether educational or
political, are not changed without explanation; they are transformed
when there is a fundamental change in ourselves. The individual is of
first importance, not the system; and as long as the individual does not
understand the total process of himself, no system can bring order and
peace to the world.
