Education is meant to form the person in such a way that he can
see the world in a proper way, and be well positioned to make it a
better place for himself and for others. Education should make the
person a learning person, developing and equipping him with the tools
and abilities to deal with realities of the present and of the future.
To educate means to teach how to think rather than what to think,
to improve the mind so that the person can think for himself rather
than loading the memory with the thoughts of other men. Education
is about laying down specifi c foundations that will help the person
to have dominance and at the same time reverence for the world.
The new perspective of education I suggest in this book will prepare
the young person for the unpredictable future, help the person to
acknowledge the power of his own mind, and how to decipher what
is good for his intellectual, moral, and spiritual growth.
